C. The Mandarin decides to gather the stone-masons and temple builders to create a new wall that will defeat Kwan-Si's wall​.

Explanation:

Ray Bradbury's short story "The Golden Kite, The Silver Wind," tells the allegorical tale of how each and every element of human life is dependent on the other. The story tells of unity, brotherhood, life, struggle, envy, the good of all things, etc.

When the Mandarin learned of the new wall of Kwan-Si that he followed the advice of his daughter and build a new wall. He instructed his stone-masons, and temple builders to construct a wall that will 'defeat' any shape that the town of Kwan-Si has. So, the Mandarin's actions of following his daughter's suggestions and ordering the builders to build a new wall help set the plot for the next mission.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
