Chapter 1570
Though Sean saved the girl and helped her pay off her debt, there was no way Sean would take her with him.
Therefore, he handed over the girl to Ronald.
Although Ronald was not a good man, he had no problem choosing between major issues of principle. Perhaps he would devour the girl if she stayed by his side, but it was much better than her being a prostitute and soliciting. At least she would have a more stable life.
The girl was sound asleep in bed, and neither Sean nor Zander disturbed her.
Ronald’s wives cooked, so they went to the dining hall on the first floor to eat.
The City-State Union’s food culture was close to that of the west. The table was full of steaks. Sean and Zander had not much of an appetite. They ate while listening to Ronald explain Dorodo’s current situation.
Dorodo’s mayor was Quentin Lewis, a Dragon Kingdom native who had been in office for eight years.
Quentin managed Dorodo fairly well. At least there had been considerable economic progress. Dorodo’s economy had grown substantially, especially in the last few years.
Besides the mayor, Quentin, Ronald also explained the city defense army’s situation to Sean and Zander in great detail.
Since there was no commander-in-chief, three of Dorodo’s chiliarchs managed the city defense army.
These chiliarchs were Wesley Jokerman, Anthony Laurent, and Gregory Killian.
Each of these chiliarch led 1,000 city defense soldiers. They managed Dorodo’s city defense army pretty well. At least there had not been any trouble recently.
According to Ronald, Anthony and Gregory were all right, but the chiliarch, Wesley, was a little problematic.
Wesley himself was doing well, but he had a son, George Jokerman, who was in his early twenties.
Perhaps to pave the way for his son, George, Wesley enlisted George in Dorodo’s city defense army and promoted him to a centurion, putting him in charge of 100 city defense soldiers.
