Hua Min watched Lin Yan look at the house and explained: "That's the temporary warehouse over there. If you look at the yard at the end, a security management point has been set up there to resolve disputes at the dock."
"Since the establishment of the security management point, fights and violent incidents at the dock have dropped significantly. As expected, we still need to take control now. Yun Qing sent a team here, and the deterrent effect is very good."
Lin Yan praised: "Yun Qing has always been very good. Has she been promoted now?"
"Of course it was promoted. Mingcheng has set up a regiment of troops, and Yun Qing is the leader." Hua Min admired Yun Qing. "Mingcheng, which just joined the alliance, is backward and poor. There are too many people who are disobedient. Thanks to Yun Qing Iron-blooded tactics and strong suppression are what make us what we are today."
"Oh, Yun Qing is in charge of military and government affairs?"
"Absolutely. She is the general person in charge assigned by the alliance. Most of the government affairs are handled by Hua Xiang and Hong Ling. But without Yun Qing in charge, it would be difficult for it to go smoothly."
"Where are the locals in Mingcheng? I remember there is the Mingcheng Arbitration Tribunal, who is in charge of it, and has the establishment of the City Lord's Mansion in Mingcheng been completed?"
The Arbitration Tribunal and the City Lord's Mansion check each other, and their powers are both overlapping and divided. They are the management agencies of the alliance city.
"The establishment has been completed in the past two years. Hua Xiang serves as the president of the arbitration tribunal, and there are six other members. The City Lord's Mansion will be the City Lord Tomorrow, and there are several other managers, large and small, to manage specific affairs."
"Where's Ming Ertou? I remember he is very capable. Like Tomorrow, he is a member of the Alliance Arbitration Court and represents Ming City."
"Ming Ertou is indeed capable. He is the first person under the city lord and one of the six members of the arbitration tribunal. Tomorrow is getting older. When he retires, the next city lord will undoubtedly be Ming Ertou."
Lin Yan smiled, "You are indeed capable. He is in a high position at a young age. I can rest assured that I will leave Mingcheng to him in the future."
When he arrived in the city, Lin Yan saw neat rows of blue brick houses. The streets were spacious, clean and paved with blue bricks.
The poor thatched houses everywhere in my memory are no longer there, replaced by prosperity.
Hua Min pointed to the second floor not far away, "Did you see that over there is the City Lord's Mansion and the Arbitration Tribunal, and on the other side is the largest school in Mingcheng, Mingcheng Senior High School."
"How many schools are there in Mingcheng?"
"Five kindergartens are located in the four corners and the center of the city, making it convenient for young children to go to school. Three elementary schools, and the senior high school."
Lin Yan nodded, "Yes, Mingcheng has a large population, so it will naturally need more schools. In the future, as the population grows, it may be expanded."
Hua Min affirmed: "That is inevitable. After the school restructuring, only Sun City has an alliance university that accepts outstanding students from all over the country. Now there are only more than 80 students. The other cities have senior high schools which are the best developed. ”
"Take your time and don't be in a hurry. Many children choose to work after graduating from primary school or secondary school. When their children are born, people are getting better and better educated, and more universities will naturally appear."
Lin Yan affirmed Hua Min's achievements, "It's faster than I expected to be able to do this now. It's already amazing that 80 to 90 percent of the children can enroll in school."
Hua Min smiled, "Currently there is a shortage of teaching resources, so we still need to train more talents."
The two of them walked and looked around, and came to the edge of Mingcheng, where the copper mine was located. Many workshops and a large factory had been built here.
"Copper mining technology has improved a lot, and the annual output is constantly increasing. Various copper products have come out, making daily life more convenient. For example, we now use copper basins, copper pots, etc., as well as copper wires used in laboratories, etc. The production technology has matured.”
Lin Yan smiled and said: "Hua Min, you have such a thorough understanding of all aspects of Mingcheng, so you usually pay close attention to it."
"Hehe, you also know that I can't sit still, and I just like to listen to some gossip. There are many people who don't know about it. In fact, it's just some common news that involves secrets. I definitely won't pry around."
"It's not easy to have self-awareness."
Hua Min wanted to hit Lin Yan angrily, "Humph, we are evenly matched. Let's go, I will take you to a large copper products factory to have a look."
While the two were wandering around, Yun Qing came over in a hurry, and soon Shui Sheng and Hong Ling also arrived.
When they heard that Lin Yan had come to Mingcheng, their first reaction was that they didn't believe it. After confirming that it was true, they hurried over.
But after more than two years, Lin Yan felt like he was in a trance when he saw a familiar face again.
"Hong Ling, Shuisheng, you have changed so much. You look more elegant. You are different from others at first glance."
Yun smiled softly and joked: "What about me?"
"Well, you are more dignified."
Hua Min said: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go to the restaurant. There is a quiet private room there. It's a good time to have a meal and reminisce about the past."
Naturally, the others had no objections and followed suit.
Lin Yan walked all the way without stopping his eyes. Is this still the Mingcheng of the past? There is no trace of the past.
Shui Sheng: "Stop looking. Mingcheng is brand new. Everything has been overthrown and rebuilt. Everyone has spent their efforts on it."
"With so many houses, how rich are the people in Mingcheng?" Lin Yan looked at the rows of houses and had to think about practical issues.
No matter how low prices are, it still costs a lot to build a house. The food and clothing problem of Mingcheng people has not been solved, so where will the money come from to build houses?
It would be understandable if only some families live in new houses. After all, some people are willing to work hard and strive for the future, while others are content with the status quo. This is understandable.
But every house has a new house, which is a bit unrealistic. In Sun City today, there are still old and new houses.
Hua Min smiled and reminded: "Isn't there a bank?"
Shuisheng explained: "When Mingcheng was newly built, we discussed this issue many times and did a lot of work before we reached a consensus. We demolished it all at once and rebuilt it to create a brand new Mingcheng. Financial subsidies were part of it, and each household received a loan. Part of it was finally resolved successfully.”
"In the past year or so, some families have paid off their loans. They also have some savings at home, and their lives are getting more prosperous."
Lin Yan knew how difficult it was to do this. There are tens of thousands of people in Mingcheng, but not everyone is willing to take on debt to build a house.
"You are still so good that you solved Mingcheng's hidden dangers in one go."
Shuisheng chuckled, "Isn't this our job? If you want to do it, do your best."
Lin Yan looked at Hong Ling, "What are you mainly doing now?"
In the past, Hong Ling focused on the textile industry. Since becoming a councillor, her identity has changed and she has also taken on responsibilities. She was afraid that Hong Ling wouldn't like this and would not be happy doing it.
Hong Ling smiled and said, "I mainly assist Hua Xiang and supervise the implementation of various policies in Mingcheng. I am the deputy president of the Mingcheng Arbitration Tribunal."
"It's amazing, you have completely transformed." Lin Yan gave a thumbs up, "How did you do it? Your figure is getting better and better, without any fat at all."
Hong Ling was already tall, but now she is more intellectual and has the air of a high-ranking person. The timid girl before is no longer visible.
