Chapter 310
Stephen stopped asking about that and started to comfort George, "Don't overthink things. Everything will be
fine."
He planned to stabilize Celestial City first, then work hard in the next city to recover the economic losses. That
way, the public criticism of George would ease significantly.
George asked, "Have you settled the matters in Celestial City?"
Stephen nodded. "I've made the arrangements."
With Mark Smith coming on board, it meant that the South Regent had placed all his chess pieces in Celestial
City. The city was unlikely to fall into chaos again. If things got out of hand, even the South Regent would not be
able to make a profit.
"| estimate that Celestial City will stabilize in about half a month to a month."
Once Celestial City stabilized, they could attract investors and rebuild the economy.
Stephen continued, "Although the South Regent is cunning, | believe we'll definitely be able to win against him."
George smiled bitterly. "Yes, we'll definitely win."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough he said that, that was not his true thought.
He recalled how the South Regent had feared Ethan so much when they were at Ethan's house. It was as if the
South Regent was a child meeting a strict teacher! The South Regent, whom they could not handle even with
their full strength, did not even dare to lift his head in front of Ethan! With such a comparison, George felt the
vast gap between them and Ethan once again.
Stephen noticed that George seemed down, so he thought that the federal government's punishment and online
criticisms had taken a toll on him.
"Have a good rest." Stephen said earnestly, "I'll definitely make the federal government lift their punishment on
you and change how people view you online."
George had only beclike this for the sake of saving Stephen. Therefore, Stephen would feel guilty if he did
not help George, and this matter would haunt him for his entire life!
Thinking about this, Stephen did not continue his meal. He returned to his room to research which city he should
target next. He could not afford to make any more mistakes. He had to boost the economy, not only to recover
Riveria's losses but also to spur its growth. Stephen scanned through the information of several cities.
At midnight, he finally decided to target Hill City! It was the largest city in Riveria by area. However, due to its
numerous mountains and hills, there were not many usable spaces.

This was also why it was named Hill City.
Hill City's main economy included mining, agriculture, and forestry, with scontribution from livestock
farming. The mining sector primarily focused on quarrying, agriculture was centered around fruit plantations,
and forestry mainly involved eucalyptus trees. These were all supplemented by livestock farming of free-range
local pigs, chickens, ducks, and geese.
These industries contributed a GDP of 28 trillion to Hill City!
Considering Hill City was the largest city in Riveria by area, Stephen thought these industries still had plenty of
room to grow. He pulled out a map of Hill City along with Ethan's previous plans for the city. Stephen could not
afford to make another mistake, so he had to thoroughly analyze Ethan's previous plans!
"Ethan planned on building a road, and the route has already been mapped out. Could it be to improve
transportation in the linear-shaped city and make it more convenient to export goods?
Due to the numerous mountains in Hill City, the city was built on the flat land between them, giving it a linear
shape. If there were a highway running through the city, it would certainly make transportation much more

"He even planned on changing the type of trees planted in the forestry industry. They currently focus on
eucalyptus trees, but is there anything bad about them? Or are they not profitable? But what trees did he plan
on replacing them with?" The answers to these questions were not written in Ethan's plan. Stephen only knew
that he planned on changing the trees planted.
"Ethan also planned on introducing smountain teas, but the types weren't specified. Besides that, he
intended to control the mining of ores, prohibit illegal extraction, and define the grazing areas for livestock
farming."
