Ark: I adopted Seria at the beginning

three days later.

Ursus is a country where it feels like winter all year round.

The cold is even deeper and more chilling than that of Shelag; there is no gentleness here, much less the gentleness of Yera.

This country, whose primary driving force was war, has finally begun to gradually halt its conquests.

But for Ursus, this is not a good thing.

This is because it often means there is something bigger to deal with, because if this issue isn't addressed, the war machine will be completely grounded.

Ursus is in this situation; it's not that it doesn't want to wage war, but rather that it simply lacks the capability to do so.

Without resolving internal problems, rashly launching a war will only lead to a more miserable end.

Scorpion Group's aircraft landed in the mobile city of Chernobog in Ursus.

As one of the earliest cities in Ursus where Huang Cheng made strategic plans.

This city, a testament to the friendship between Ursus and the Scorpion Group, was handed over to the Scorpion Group by the people of Ursus themselves.

The last time Huang Cheng came to this city was when he first met Zao Lu.

During the time since their departure, Scorpion Group employees have not forgotten to cause trouble in this city.

Since Ursus did not want to clash with Huang Cheng, and moreover, it needed international aid in the form of low-priced food, it sought to appease him and provide a certain political buffer zone.

Therefore, in the face of the Scorpion Group's infiltration of Chernobog, the nobles of Ursus have always turned a blind eye, and in theory, they have completely handed the city over to Boss Huang.

Huang Cheng certainly wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass him by. Although he wasn't very good at leading troops into battle, he was a complete all-rounder in other aspects.

As for military matters, let's leave them to Miss Doctor. Anyway, I have absolute control over the army, so it'll give her something to do every day.

"The temperature in Ursus is much lower than in Casimir, Acheng, be careful not to catch a cold."

"My physical abilities are far superior to yours. Do you remember how you lost to me on the field back then?"

"All I know is that I had a mouthful of sand..."

Margaret still draped the coat over the boy's shoulders, even though he wasn't actually that much older than her.

Standing atop the Scorpio Group building, Huang Cheng's gaze was cold as he looked down at the city below. He couldn't help but say:

"A just war may result in only a few squares of corpses, but the fear and darkness that oppresses ordinary people has ravaged the world for thousands of years. The casualties and suffering caused cannot be filled by several countries. When the dark clouds in the sky are dispelled by a moment of light, some people blame the thunder for the mistakes."

Margaret nodded beside her, a startling light flashing in her eyes.

What righteous and simple language these are!

"It's a pity that these words are not my own; I'm just repeating what others have said and adapting them to fit the current situation in Ursus."

Huang Cheng just happened to remember that phrase, which is very suitable for Ursus now.

The two walked down the building and took the elevator to the middle floor.

"Report to me."

Huang Cheng looked at the AI ​​staff member in front of him, who read aloud:

"Thanks to our efforts over the past year, we have now acquired all of Chernobog's economic assets. We now own more than 90% of the city's land and almost 80% of its wealth."

"Among these things, the help from Ms. Black Snake saved us a lot of unnecessary trouble."

"However, since Chernobog's economy is not very developed, all the wealth in the city combined probably wouldn't be enough to build a new Scorpion Group building in Colombia, even if you include the city itself."

Huang Cheng continued, "So... Abacus, tell me, how is the replacement of the person in charge of this city going?"

A red glint flashed in Ai's eyes, and she immediately started calculating:

“We have acquired all the noble properties, and now they are all nominal employees of the Scorpion Group. We have diluted their wealth and power through various means, including Miss Early Dew’s family.”

Sigh, just over a year ago, this family was still quite proud of themselves in front of me.

The head of the family even wanted to create some other accidents to gain his support.

As a result, he was taken down by my employees not long after.

“Leave Early Dew for me. Find an opportunity to completely cut off the treatment and property of the other nobles. A bunch of lizards with clipped wings and claws are not qualified to be my opponents.”

......at the same time.

Early dew at home.

Several nobles sat around in the hall, holding calculators and working on some accounts.

"This month's income is much less than last month's. If this continues, our whole family won't even have money to buy fuel in a few months."

"It's all because of your involvement in futures and stocks. As a result, the Scorpion Group took over everything, and the whole family's assets were wiped out. We even have a lot of debts outside."

"You can't blame me for this. You guys were pretty excited at the time, but who knew something like this would happen?"

"Didn't you say that our family has someone in Saint-Germain who could take over this business? How come we haven't heard anything about it yet?"

"I don't know either. I don't know how many things I wrote in the past six months, but they all disappeared without a trace when they were sent to the capital. I've also watched the video; the letters were indeed delivered to those important figures, but..."

As Zao Lu was getting ready, she listened with worry to the lamentations of her family downstairs.

Actually, there's a reason why the Bear Bear Group has a serious funding shortfall. After all, the only wealthy person in the group is our Zaozi.

Before her family was short of money, as the top noble family in Chernobog, Zao Lu's monthly allowance was equivalent to several years' worth of net income for an ordinary person.

Unfortunately, under Boss Huang's powerful financial hand, any feudal aristocracy could only show their pitiful wallets.

Due to a sudden change in circumstances, the family's situation deteriorated rapidly, and Zao Lu now has almost no pocket money.

He didn't even go to school anymore, spending his days at home carving handicrafts to sell, and he couldn't possibly go out alone to see the truth.

However, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse, and the Zao Lu family has managed to survive until now by selling antiques and various handicrafts.

Their situation is relatively good now, because almost all the nobles in this city are on the verge of bankruptcy.

So it's not just Zaoru's family.

Compared to the plight of the nobles, the ordinary citizens of Chernobog were finally seeing a glimmer of hope as the Scorpion Group gradually eroded Chernobog's territory.

Not only are prices lower, but wages are also at least 30% higher than before.

After all, the resources used to be occupied by the nobles. Scorpion Group has the highest salary and benefits in all of Terra, and even outsourced employees can enjoy a series of benefits.

This quickly boosted the city's economic development, which was exactly the result Huang Cheng wanted.

However, due to some special reasons, the people of Ursus still hate the infected, and with the Black Serpent's sabotage, the Bear Clan's situation remains very dangerous.

Huang Cheng wants to turn this city into a fortress that will erode the entirety of Ursus; this is a battle fought without gunfire.
