Chapitre 265: Chapter 265: The Future of the Territory

"Almost everything has doubled!"

Matthew carefully perused the more detailed data.

Beyond the numbers, the reserves in talent, production technology, capacity of goods, and the volume of purchases had all seen significant increases.

The pace of the Territory's development was rapid, and its internal growth continued swiftly, not slackening with the increase in population.

Butler Ralph's face, however, did not show much joy; instead, it was tinged with traces of worry:

"As the population continues to grow, the incidents needing to be dealt with are also increasing, and we're facing a shortage of management talent."

"Moreover, the first murder case has already occurred..."

"The patrol soldiers arrived promptly at the scene, and they arrested the murderer, but the victim could not be saved..."

Seeing Butler Ralph's somewhat dim expression, Matthew did not offer words of comfort; instead, he made a gesture for him to relax:

"This was bound to happen, wasn't it?"
