Silence...
Still silence...
Dead silence...
Still dead silence...
After five minutes, the guests still could not recover from their shock. These compensations and preferential
treatment were too generous!
It was so generous that it was unbelievable!
The businessmen with factories or companies in the slum had worried that their businesses would suffer great
losses in the slum's governance. However, they were not scared now!
If the purification facilities and pollution drains were not up to standard, they could purchase the purification and

Although improving employee welfare and basic treatment would bring financial damage to their factories or
companies, the Dorodo government would help them expand to generate revenue and profit. In this way, they
could offset the loss caused by the increase in their employees' wages and benefits.
They would make more money than ever!
Even those with no businesses in the slum could get preferential treatment and enjoy some privileges in Dorodo
afterward, which was equally good compensation.
Ronald got the biggest gain of all!
He had been nothing more than a weapons dealer, buying weapons from other cities, shipping them to Dorodo, and
supplying them to Dorodo's city defense army for a profit. However, Dorodo was going to help Ronald build his own
weapons factory in the slum.
In this way, he would go from being a weapons dealer to a weapons manufacturer, and he would be the only one of
Dorodo's weapons manufacturers to receive government approval and support.
It was free money, and it was a lot.
Ronald was almost knocked unconscious by so much free money!
"Dad..." Lillian grabbed Ronald's wrist, tears welling in her eyes.
"We made the right choice. I knew we wouldn't suffer if we took Commander Lennon's side, and it turns out we
made a lot of money instead of losing..." Ronald said excitedly to his daughter.
The people around them cast envious glances at Ronald. However, they could only envy him. None of them was
jealous.
Ronald was the biggest donor besides Sean and Mayor Quentin. He was not the richest person in the room. His
assets could only be ranked in the upper-middle class. He was no match for the Wosh family and the Montana

However, Ronald donated the most!
Therefore, it was only fitting that he should receive the greatest benefit and the most generous compensation.
Even the pickiest person could find nothing wrong with it!
Moreover, everyone who donated more than one million dollars was compensated. The difference was how much.
They were all happy and excited!
Only three hearts were full of bitterness.
One was Elijah, one was Cole, and the other one was Dylan!
There were so many guests at the fundraising gala tonight, but only three of them donated less than one million
dollars. Thus, the compensation Sean had just offered was not for the three of them!
Besides, not only were they not included, their factories in the slum were going to be closed for rectification. They
might not be able to have them up and running again!
