Doctor, I'm really strong!

"The main thing is that the tools are powerful." Liu Jiuli smiled. "Alright, let's begin."

Where are you going?

"It's in Chernobog, let's conduct a Chernobog investigation."

Black Snake didn't understand why Liu Jiuli would do such a thing. Weren't those data detailed enough? What could he possibly find out by investigating at the very bottom? National affairs or the future of civilization? At most, it would just be trivial family matters. He couldn't understand what this person was thinking.

Forget it, let him do whatever he wants. Anyway, he's going in the wrong direction, so I'm bound to win the bet.

For the next two weeks, the two disguised themselves and went from street to street, living as ordinary infected people and blending in with the people around them. Liu Jiuli even went so far as to pick up trash with others while chatting and joking around with them.

He even quickly learned the skill of scavenging, enabling him to find useful items in a pile of junk.

Aren't you getting a little too into the role?

Talulah, the black snake, watched Liu Jiuli busily moving between the various garbage stations with a strange expression.

Furthermore, what's the point of asking these people what they need, how their lives are, and their views on the Reunion Movement?

Whether they agree or disagree, what can they possibly change?

No matter how a pile of loose sand is brought together, it is still sand and cannot compete with diamonds.

But Liu Jiuli recorded all these needs in his notebook, writing them very carefully, as if they were some kind of martial arts manual.

"You really have the heart to do that!"

Black Serpent was cleaning the sewers with Liu Jiuli because the infrastructure of this city had been damaged by the previous natural disaster and needed to be repaired. Unlike Black Serpent, who planned to use Chernobog as a battering ram, Liu Jiuli intended to develop the city here and naturally wanted to treat this hard-won city well.

I understand your idea, but why don't you just hire someone to do it? Why do it yourself?

Black Talulah pinched her nose and took several steps back with a look of disgust.

It smells awful...

Liu Jiuli didn't seem to care: "Just think of it as your own toilet being clogged and you're unclogging it yourself."

"That's not something I should do! Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise. It's not appropriate for a boss like you to come and clean the sewers!"

“This way, we can get into real life and see things that are not usually noticed. It’s a win-win situation,” Liu Jiuli said with a smile, shaking off his muddy hands.

"Then tell me what you found?"

“Look, the city’s sewer system layout is obviously unreasonable. It’s concentrated in a certain area, where the population is the largest and where the sewer system is most needed. There are hardly any usable pipes there. It needs to be changed.”

Talulah the Black Serpent said with a strange look, "This is a slum. Have you ever seen any country build infrastructure in a place like this? The migrants outside are lucky to live in mobile cities. Where would all this other stuff come from?"

"Have you considered that the poor sanitation here could lead to an outbreak of plague? Once the disease spreads, can a low isolation wall really stop the bacteria and viruses?"

Liu Jiuli straightened up and let out a long breath: "A city can't only have poor people or only rich people, but if the poor are not doing well, why do you think the rich can be immune?"

"If you mean a poor people's rebellion or uprising, there are many ways to solve it, and they generally don't succeed."

"Have you calculated the cost of suppression? Have you calculated the hidden asset losses? The public's trust, the city's expenses, and future development—these things don't just appear out of thin air. You think bullets solve the problem, but they only suppress the problem for later."

Liu Jiuli looked at the black snake Talulah and sneered, "When the volcano roars, we'll all be doomed."

"Is this why you care about these people?" Black Serpent Talulah frowned, clearly not yet fully accepting this explanation.

"Putting people first, whether it's an economic consideration or any other consideration, will only lead to a sharp increase in other expenses, resulting in more harm than good."

Liu Jiuli resumed his inspection, but his tone remained serious: "If your eyes are only focused on certain people, then your world is only that big."

“You have a point…” Black Serpent Talulah pondered for a moment, “But aren’t you considering the construction costs?”

"All costs are the cost of labor, and everything of value is created by labor. What we need to do is to use these forces rationally and unite them."

"Does this have anything to do with what you're doing now?"

"Yes, because one has no right to speak without investigation."

Besides these tasks, Liu Jiuli also obtained a lot of information from all over the country through Kosic's channels.

From international politics to folk traditions, I spend my days buried in piles of documents and books. When I relax, I disguise myself and go out shopping or participate in social labor. All of this information becomes the basis for my future decisions.

such as……

“King Killer, there are problems with the progress of the third district project you are in charge of.”

"Who's on duty at the ninth maintenance section of the seventh pipeline on Fifth Avenue? Where did they go?!"

"The restoration work at the food processing plant will be handled by Broken Bones, starting with Plant No. 3, where the damage was least severe."

"The cleanup work in District 12 was done very well; they will be awarded the rotating red flag next month."

"Red Knife, this is the third time you've broken the rules. Report to the solitary confinement room. If there's a next time, I'll strangle you with my own hands!"

……

The thousands of members of the Reunion Movement soon discovered that Liu Jiuli, from some point onward, knew more about Chernobog than they did themselves. No one could be fooled by him; good deeds were rewarded, bad deeds were punished, and traitors were punished...

No, there are no traitors, only dead men.

The integration movement, which was used to a relaxed approach, was not used to Liu Jiuli's management style at first. He forbade this and that, and expected people to treat ordinary people in a friendly manner. "Do you know how they persecuted us before? We don't need you as our leader."

So some people wanted Talulah to come out of retirement, but Talulah naturally refused.

No way! She's right under Liu Jiuli's nose right now. With his strength, I can't say anything else, but if he finds out she's betrayed him, he can easily kill her. Besides, she's still observing Liu Jiuli, hoping he can recreate that powerful force and rebuild Ursus. How could she possibly lose the big picture for a small gain?

It's absolutely impossible for him to be a patriot; he strongly agrees with Liu Jiuli's management style and is a staunch supporter of Liu.

Even if other Reunion Movement cadres had grievances, they could at least see the situation clearly and knew that Liu Jiuli's reforms were good for the Reunion Movement. Mephistopheles, who was the most unhappy, was kept in check by Faust, and the mercenary W was too dangerous, so his stance was unclear.

After much thought, they realized they had no choice but to go it alone.

The result was obvious: they lacked popular support. Now, Chechnya was gradually improving, and anyone who wanted to live a normal life, except for warmongers, knew how to choose. These traitors were betrayed the moment they started looking for help, and the Cheka easily dispatched a few people to lead the surrounding crowd to wipe them out.

Liu Jiuli didn't even need to take action himself.

It must be acknowledged that, over time, the integration movement is gradually uniting.

A month after Liu Jiuli took charge of the integration movement, he presented his preliminary results.

The Chernobog Report.

Section 16: Live and learn!

The long night, with no desire to sleep, is a good time for enlightenment.

The black snake Talulah was holding Liu Jiuli's "Chernobyl Investigation Report" and reading it carefully.

It really is just a report, written entirely in plain language, using the simplest and most common words that anyone can understand. Even if you can't read, you can understand most of the report just by listening to someone else speak it.

The content ranges from market vegetable prices to regional development, covering everything imaginable; someone unfamiliar with the topic might think it's just casual conversation.

Compared to the writings of nobles, it lacks ornate language and eye-catching vocabulary. It exudes a pragmatic atmosphere from the inside out. If judged by the standards of Ursus nobles, it is extremely rustic and unworthy of being considered elegant.

But if Kosichrie had to choose, he would rather face this kind of cheesy report directly than read those articles that were full of nonsense and only reported good news.

—What I want to know is not how good your writing is, but whether you have investigated the things I asked you to investigate thoroughly.

Talulah, the black serpent, held the report and murmured to herself, "I think I understand where those powers come from..."

Professionals always see things differently.

The report, which may appear to be just a simple, data-driven report with tables, actually provides a clear and detailed analysis of the entire city of Chernobyl. With it in hand, decision-makers can employ more precise administrative measures, enemies can find fatal weaknesses, and ordinary people can have higher expectations for the future.

For example, it mentions the prices and reasons for price fluctuations in several districts of Chernobyl, which can make a small profit, and further, it mentions the government's more rational allocation of resources.

Of course, every survey has a time limit. As time goes by, the practical value of this report begins to decline sharply, but its significance increases sharply. If all future surveys were conducted in this way, how much trouble could I save?

But this was no easy feat. The two worked tirelessly from dawn till dusk to prepare this report, completing all the current grassroots work in Qiecheng and truly experiencing the people's conditions firsthand.

"You're actually interested in this kind of report?"

Kosichrie smiled slightly; it was Talulah's voice, the original owner of this body.

“I’m interested in anything that can make Ursus stronger; I’m a pragmatist.”

“Including your coldness and cruelty, is that it?” Talulah’s tone was full of displeasure.

Kosich simply shook his head calmly: "If you could understand that rational judgment is more important than emotional expression, you wouldn't be locked up by me now."

"You don't think I've already given in, do you?" Talulah's tone was somewhat dangerous.

"Of course not, on the contrary, I look forward to the day when you break free from my constraints."

Kosichrie smiled and said, "Isn't that even better? Ursus needs strong individuals who can defeat me. I would be very pleased."

"And now?" Talulah seemed to be mocking, "You're pinning Ursus's hopes on a report like this?"

“Perhaps you should take a good look at these things; they’ll be very helpful to you…” Kosiché shrugged the report in his hand with a satisfied air. “At least they’ll help you understand why you lose next time.”

Talulah can see the outside world, but she can't control her body. Koschei doesn't mind sharing what he sees and hears with Talulah, since he's confident he can control everything.

...Perhaps, or rather, the vast majority.

Faced with a sudden and unexpected event, it's only natural that plans would go out of control.

Kosichello still doesn't understand Liu Jiuli's identity.

That guy acted like an ordinary person, but his knowledge was incredibly broad; this was an education that only members of high-ranking noble families could enjoy...

But if he is a nobleman, why doesn't he understand any etiquette?

Was all of this just a facade?

Koschke has seen many people who can hold their heads high and bend their backs; on the contrary, they are everywhere.

But they all have ulterior motives, such as playing the role of a friendly person while actually thinking about other things.

Votes, reputation, publicity stunts, and so on...

What was Liu Jiuli's motivation?

At least in the foreseeable future, I see absolutely no benefit for him in doing this...

Could there be some deeper secret involved?

That's really intriguing...

Koschke's curiosity was not so complicated for Liu Jiuli.

This is simply a way of realizing one's self-worth.

If he only wanted to solve the problem of food and clothing, or enjoy a life of luxury, he would have enough power to become a superior person in any country.
