Chapter 1254
‘Commander.”
With no one around, Ray finally called out the appellation.
“You don’t have to call me that. Have a seat.”
Sean waved his hand slightly and said to Ray.
“Yes!”
Ray answered and sat down.
It had been two years since they had last met. They never talked because they were both busy.
It was their first face–to–face conversation in more than two years.
Ray could never have imagined such a thing when he was in the army.
Sean had over a million soldiers. If every single one of them talked to Sean face–to–face, it would take
them two years of service for a one–minute audience each.
“You’ve done well since you were discharged.”
Sean picked up the coffee and took a sip.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRay sat up even straighter, not daring to breathe loudly.
He could tell that Sean was being sarcastic.
He could not find the right words to explain it.
Sean only wanted results whether Ray had a choice or not.
“Calm down.
“I hope from the bottom of my heart that all of you can be discharged peacefully from the army, return
home, get a job, and spend time with your families.”
Sean put down his coffee cup and spoke calmly.
Ray’s nose turned sore when he heard Sean’s remark.
He knew it was what was on Sean’s mind.
Given the choice, Sean would not fight in any war.
Because there would be casualties when there was war.
“Whew! Commander, how have you been these two years?”
Ray exhaled gently, looked at Sean, and asked.
“Whether good or bad, it’s all over.
“You seem to have something to say to me just now.”
Sean waved his hand slightly, not in the mood to catch up. “Yes!
“That land is a development priority for the government.
“It’s a little tricky if you want to stop it…”
Ray nodded gently and said what he had not said earlier.
Patrick’s hometown was one of the most backward and poorest in Joules Town.
Therefore, it was a disgrace for the government officials who wanted to hit their key performance
indicators.
Therefore, they were going to develop and rebuild it no matter what.
Because Patrick’s grave was there, Sean did not want anyone to touch it, which was no different than
biting off more than he could chew.
After all, this was not the army, and Sean was no longer the same nine–star commander.
On top of that, Sean could not blow his cover.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSean nodded gently. He understood the stakes.
“How are you going to develop it? Has the government given any indications?”
What Sean meant to ask was what the government was going to turn this place into.
A residential area or tourist spot.
“Not really. It’s up to the developer who took over the land to decide.”
Ray shook his head and reported truthfully.
“In other words, developers are free to do whatever they want.
“Even if they bought this land and only dug an artificial lake, no one would interfere, right?”
Sean was intrigued when he heard this.
“That’s right…”
Ray froze slightly before nodding gently.
However, no developer would pay a fortune to buy a piece of land and let it go to waste, right?
After all, no one would think they have too much money to spend.
“Who owns this land now?”
When Sean asked this, Ray froze in place.
