Machine Wars : Full Metal Storm
Chapter 237 Long talk (2/3)
Guangling City.
In the past month or so.
Because of the city lord election, the streets and alleys of Guangling City are abuzz every day.
Today, Yuanhang Group’s election convoy will come to promote the election, and tomorrow Qiming Heavy Industries’ Luo Tianyi will come to canvass votes.
All kinds of things.
No need to elaborate.
However, since Luo Tianyi was exposed for being involved in the smuggling of giant beast parasites, although Qiming Heavy Industries' election work has not fallen behind every day, the number of votes has continued to decline.
Luo Tianyi, who was originally able to compete for one or two, now ranks at the bottom.
There is a gap of nearly 1,000 votes with Huang Yuanhang in third place.
now.
The current leader in the vote is Security Minister Wu Shimo.
Remember http:// in one second
Ranking second was Di Zheng, the commander of the corps.
Look at this situation.
In the general election that will end in a few weeks, the city lord throne will finally be decided between these two people.
This evening.
Di Zheng returned to his residence.
No one would have imagined that the dignified corps leader’s residence was in an ordinary residential apartment building.
Two bedrooms, less than 60 square meters, simple.
He is single and has no family, but his room is kept in order and not messy at all.
After returning home.
Di Zheng took out the instant food from the refrigerator and heated it in the microwave.
I made myself a cup of instant coffee, took a sip, and the microwave beeped, indicating that the food had been heated.
Eating simple food and drinking a few sips of coffee, he watched the news about the latest election on TV without saying anything.
At this time the doorbell rang.
Di Zheng took out a piece of paper money and wiped his mouth. He opened the door and saw a middle-aged man standing outside.
He is not tall, has a bloated waist, and greasy hair. He looks like those middle-aged and fat neighbor uncles.
Di Zheng turned sideways and said calmly: "What kind of wind brought Minister Wu here."
Yes.
This ordinary-looking greasy uncle is Wu Shimo, the director of the Ministry of Security.
"Of course it's the east wind."
Wu Shimo picked up a bag: "I just passed by Ding Ji's roast duck restaurant and bought half of it. I thought that Brother Di Zheng probably hasn't eaten yet."
"How about I get you a pair of chopsticks for me?"
Di Zheng walked to the kitchen and did not forget to say: "Remember to close the door."
After closing the door, Wu Shimo looked around and sighed: "Brother, with your merits, living in a place like this is really unfair to you."
Di Zheng came out of the kitchen with a pair of bowls and chopsticks: "One bedroom is enough for me to sleep in. Why do I live in such a big place?"
Wu Shimo smiled, placed the sliced roast duck on the table and said, "I heard that you donate money to the orphanage every month?"
"Food, housing and food are all subsidized by the Corps. If you can't use up your work points, you can just let them go."
"It's better to buy some food for the children to increase their nutrition."
Di Zheng picked up a piece of roast duck with chopsticks, tasted it, nodded and said, "It tastes really good."
Wu Shimo chuckled: "Yes, Ding Ji's roast duck is always good, especially the ducks, which are carefully raised in our city and run around in the fields every day. Of course they taste good."
Di Zheng smiled: "It's only Minister Wu who can afford it. Nowadays, these fish, shrimps, pigs and geese are farmed live."
"It's not something ordinary people can afford."
Wu Shimo smiled and said: "Why are we working so hard? Isn't it just to let the people live back to the days of living and working in peace and contentment before?"
"So, brother Di, I might as well tell you something from the bottom of my heart. It doesn't matter whether you take the position of city lord or I take it."
"Actually, I don't think it's bad at all."
"But Brother Di, you are great at leading troops in battles. When it comes to management, that's another matter."
Di Zheng gave him a piece of roast duck: "So Minister Wu is here as a lobbyist tonight?"
Wu Shimo sighed: "Isn't this because we don't want to make the relationship too tense?"
"You said whoever should be the city lord is not the right one."
"I'm here to say something to you, brother, I want to be the city lord, and I will absolutely support your work."
"This giant beast fell from the sky and came out of the Jambu space. It doesn't mean that they will stop if we stop exploring the surface."
"Besides, without your army to protect our dungeon, I think many people will not be able to eat a meal in peace."
"So those who call for a halt to surface exploration are just having grass in their heads."
A rare smile appeared on Di Zheng's stern face: "Is Minister Wu my close friend, Mr. Di?"
"I don't dare to be a close friend, but I know a little bit about what Brother Di is thinking."
Wu Shimo put down his chopsticks and sighed: "Like Brother Di, I also hope to expel the giant beasts from the surface so that everyone can return to life on the surface."
"We are humans, not mice."
"Even if I can live peacefully in the dungeon for a while, I can't live like this for a lifetime."
"Even if we can survive, what about our children and grandchildren? Do we have to let them live in such humiliation?"
"No!"
"Absolutely not!"
Wu Shimo waved his hand.
Then said.
"So, I hope, Brother Di, you can support me in becoming the city lord."
"In turn, I will fully support you in carrying out surface work."
"Support each other, that's what I think."
"No one is perfect."
"I believe Brother Di that you can't manage the underground city well while carrying out surface work."
"Me too, so we should support each other and form a rope. In this way, neither Huang Yuanhang nor Luo Tianyi can influence our work."
Di Zheng took a sip of coffee and did not respond. He just looked at Wu Shimo with a smile.
Wu Shimo laughed dryly and took out a photo from his pocket.
Recommended to Di Zheng.
"Old Zhang, Zhang Chunqiu."
"He was the one who was interested in your regiment's supplies at that time."
"He was also the one who asked one of our action teams to go out privately."
"He is a cancer in our security department. It took me several days of investigation to find him out."
"Today we have conducted an internal interrogation and deprived Zhang Chunqiu of his position. Now he has been put in prison."
"I assure you that in the future, neither the Ministry of Security nor other departments will do anything that harms the interests of the Corps."
He smiled again: "Of course, if I can't become the city lord, then I can only protect our own security department."
Don't wait for Di Zheng's reply.
Wu Shimo stood up and said, "That's all I want to say, and I won't bother you, Brother Di."
"You can think about it and give me a reply."
"Even if you don't want to support me, it doesn't matter. The worst we can do is fight for real."
"But no matter what the outcome is, brother Di, I will always respect you as a man and am willing to make you my friend."
"Farewell."
Di Zheng sent him to the door.
After the door is closed.
He just laughed bitterly.
After finishing the meal in silence.
Di Zheng sent a message to Wei Fenghua, telling him about Wu Shimo's visit, and finally said: "Old Wu is right about one thing. I really don't know how to manage, and I don't want to waste my time on this."
"I don't know if he means what he says or not."
"If only I could hear his voice."
