I have a space station

“Now, the entire heavy industry system of Liaoshen is completely in the hands of the Red Coats. I think they have bigger plans. I believe that nipping them in the bud is the best option,” Que Xin said further.

“Mayor Que, are you mistaken? We are just a chamber of commerce. You should go to the council for such important national matters,” Niu Xingwang said.

“It’s not that I don’t want to, but I have no choice. You know that the council doesn’t interfere in the internal affairs of the settlement, and given my current situation, I’m afraid that even if I confess to the council, it won’t lead to a good outcome,” Que Xin said with an awkward smile.

“Anything is possible with effort. Perhaps after you replace Song Haiquan, you will be able to maintain stability in the area, which could make up for the mistakes you’ve made,” Niu Xingwang replied.

“That’s exactly what I’m thinking. It’s just that the Red Coats have gathered millions of zombies north of the Hun River in Fengtian City, and I know I’m no match for them,” Que Xin said with some melancholy.

“You don’t need to worry about that. Those zombies no longer exist,” Niu Xingwang said.

“What? No longer exist? What do you mean?” Que Xin was very surprised.

“Those zombies have been eliminated by us,” Niu Xingwang explained, very calmly, as if stating a commonplace matter.

“Eliminated?” Que Xin simply couldn’t believe it.

That was millions of zombies, and they were eliminated?

How could there be no commotion at all?

Even a million pigs should make some noise.

“Chairman Niu, are you kidding me?” Que Xin asked.

“I don’t have the leisure for that. If Mayor Que is only concerned about this, then there’s no need to be.”

“Chairman Niu, I admire your character!” Que Xin said sincerely.

If the zombies in Fengtian City were really eliminated, then Niu Xingwang could take the opportunity to ask for benefits, and huge benefits at that. But Niu Xingwang didn’t mention it and even told him the truth.

“No need, our chamber of commerce has its own principles. We won’t take a penny more, nor a penny less,” Niu Xingwang waved his hand.

He was just talking nonsense.

He didn’t mention any requests because he didn’t want to wade into this muddy water, especially muddy water where the disadvantages outweighed the advantages.

In the end, Que Xin didn’t receive any extra assistance from the chamber of commerce, but he did get two favorable outcomes:

1. After replacing Song Haiquan, Qipan Mountain will continue to cooperate with the Huatong Chamber of Commerce.

2. A message: The zombies in Fengtian City have all been eliminated.

This was enough to give him strong confidence to go up against the Red Coats.

The only problem: Que Xin had taken the Red Coats’ pills.

Although it hadn’t been long, not having an antidote was still a worry.

Regarding this, Niu Xingwang told him to prepare 100,000 crystals, and this problem could be solved.

This could be considered a powerful boost for Que Xin’s defection to the light!

…

After Que Xin returned to Fengtian, he directly detained Yong Chengshu.

Inside a dark room.

“Que Xin, do you know what you’re doing?” Yong Chengshu asked fiercely.

“Yong Chengshu, I’ve put up with you for a long time. Today, I’m going to get back everything, with interest,” Que Xin retaliated.

“I’ve said long ago that the Chinese are not trustworthy at all, but unfortunately, Lord Putian didn’t believe it and still valued you!” Yong Chengshu was very unconvinced.

“You’re wrong. People like you don’t deserve the word ‘trust.’ You exude disgusting filth from the inside out, which would desecrate the word ‘trust.’ Especially you, do you know how despicable you are? You’re like a maggot coiled in a latrine, able to dance happily in the face of a pile of excrement. I really feel sad for you, and sad for your ancestors. I’ve never seen anyone treat being a dog as their profession, and even feel superior about it, daring to bark wildly even when the master is not around. I’m afraid even a real dog can’t be as dedicated as you are, right?” Que Xin said disgustedly.

“You…! You’re dead! When Lord Putian returns, it will be your end!” Yong Chengshu was about to die of anger.

“Look, what did I say? Your master isn’t here now, he can’t protect you,” Que Xin mocked him.

“Let me go! Let me go! I’m going to kill you!” Yong Chengshu was furious after being ridiculed repeatedly.

“Slap~” A slap.

“Does that feel good?”

“Slap~”

“Slap~”

“Damn it! I’ve put up with you for a long time. If you’re going to be a dog, you have to have the awareness of a dog.”

Yong Chengshu was beaten senseless.

“Men, cut out his tongue, sever his tendons, and drag him out to feed the dogs!” Que Xin ordered after venting his anger.

Yong Chengshu ultimately paid the price for his arrogance and conceit.

…

As the Firefly Project approached its first anniversary, Dongfang Chen finally completed the most basic layout and could officially start the construction plan for the underground base.

December 1, 2055 AD.

The Huatong Chamber of Commerce announced through its official website that it would split its business, establishing Huatong Trading and Huatong Construction.

Huatong Trading would be responsible for the existing business.

Huatong Construction will use the "2055 Human Survival White Paper" as a blueprint to start undertaking the construction project of the underground base.

It’s said to be based on the White Paper, but in reality, it didn’t refer to the design plan in it. It’s just that saying it this way makes it easier for people to understand. Coupled with the online revelations about the ecological crisis some time ago, everyone can accept it even more.

Of course, you can also understand it as indirectly pulling the council to endorse it. After all, the White Paper was issued by the state, so following the policy is always right, right?
