Chapter 887 – Quiet Town

6th month, 12th day, Morocco Province Rabat City.

Mohammed the 6th's appearance in Algeria and the news of him building a rogue nation made Ouyang Shuo hurriedly end his tour of Morocco and return to Rabat.

Provincial Governor Office.

Along with Ouyang Shuo, Provincial Governor Mulan Yue returned. She would hold the first meeting since she became Provincial Governor. The four Governors and the four directors of the Provincial Governor Office bureaus were all present.

Ouyang Shuo listened in, giving everyone present a lot of pressure.

On the way back, Ouyang Shuo already had a detailed discussion with Mulan Yue about how to reduce the influence of Mohammed the 6th's rogue nation building to ensure the order of Morocco Province.

In this meeting, Mulan Yue handed out orders.

”Each office must increase their patrol, and the moment they find people spreading rumors, instantly catch them. We must also pay attention to their words. Try to lead their thoughts and let them realize that life under us is better.”

”The various migration projects must quicken their pace to try to complete the preparation work before the migrants arrive. This is one of our evaluation targets for the end of the year. If you do well, you will be rewarded; if you do not, then get ready to be replaced.”

When the officials heard that, they all replied in unison, ”Yes Provincial Governor!”

Ouyang Shuo nodded. Mulan Yue might look young, but she had the ability to be stable in important situations.

With a little more training, she would be a great helper for Ouyang Shuo.

...

After the meeting, Ouyang Shuo summoned Black Snake, who hurried over.

Seeing the king, Black Snake directly sought forgiveness, ”The Black Snake Guards have not done our job. I'm sorry my king!”

Ouyang Shuo waved him off, ”This matter is not your fault.”

The intel network that the Black Snake Guards had built up overseas was still really weak and did not have much foundation in the east mountain regions of Morocco and Algeria. Hence, it was normal that they were unable to find Mohammed the 6th.

Furthermore, for Mohammed the 6th to reach Algeria so quickly, they must have definitely gone through official relays.

This meant that right after Mohammed the 6th passed through the border, the Algeria King had been helping him out.

Algeria was also one of the important members of the Mediterranean countries, so Ouyang Shuo had his doubts. He wondered if this series of matters, including the attack on Friendship City, involved the Mediterranean Lords.

Even to say that Silver Hand might have something to do about it. Without the Silver Hand coordinating everything, they definitely would not have been able to formulate such a plan.

The goal was simple. First, mess up the Great Xia Dynasty's strategy to affect their relationship with the Mediterranean Lords and the African Lords. Secondly, increase their chips in the negotiations with the dynasty.

Such a huge negotiation; naturally, it was one where whoever had more chips would win.

A further consideration would be the interest conflicts of both sides in terms of colonizing Africa. If the Great Xia Dynasty gained a foothold in Africa, it would be bad for the European and American members of Silver Hand.

Silver Hand had never given up their attempts to restrict and suppress the Great Xia Dynasty.

”Our enemy is hard to deal with!” Ouyang Shuo exclaimed.

When Black Snake heard that, he nodded his head solemnly. Only when he went overseas did Black Snake feel the difficulty of intel work.

Many times, the problems and obstacles they faced were not things that money could solve.

Especially out of Asia, the racial differences made it hard for the Black Snake Guards to operate. For them to develop to such a scale was already a result of Black Snake's intelligence and capabilities as a leader.

Since he had a feeling that Silver Hand was behind all this, Ouyang Shuo was really careful toward Algeria. If he started war with Algeria now, he would be falling for Silver Hand's trap.

In such a scenario, not only would the Mediterranean negotiations stop, the African Lords would be wary and hate the dynasty. Then they would not be able to have any cooperation.

Taking a step back, Algeria was not as weak was Morocco. The moment a country war started, if the African and Mediterranean Lords came over, it would drag the Great Xia Dynasty into the mud.

If not, why would the Algeria royal family dare to make such a proclamation?

Killing intent flashed in Black Snake's eyes, ”My king, I'll send someone to kill Mohammed the 6th.”

Ouyang Shuo waved his hand, ”He naturally has to die, but this matter does not need to be rushed. We have to be patient. He is being so high profile, so maybe he has set a trap and is waiting for us to take the bait.”

”...” Black Snake kept silent.

Ouyang Shuo said, ”Didn't he bring a group of guards with him when he left? Let's work on their families living in Rabat. Patiently plan and cast the line for the big fish. Morocco Province is fine, and we still have a lot of time. The Black Snake Guards also need to work with the various offices to clean out the province. With Mohammed the 6th coming out, those hidden rats will be really happy.”

”I understand!”

Black Snake nodded. Currently, he was emitting a killing aura. It seemed like a bloody storm was going to sweep past Morocco Province.
