My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!
Chapter 744 The departed old friend, the countdown to the end-of-war agreement!
call
After walking outside the Flying Eagle Hotel and standing in the cool night breeze, Somo let out a long breath.
The hustle and bustle of the surrounding market and the scent of fragrance wafting into his nose made him feel a little calmer.
Standing at the door of the hotel and looking into the distance.
Hope City at nine o'clock at night is obviously more "depressed" than Fenghuo City at two or three o'clock in the night. Only the buildings of the four major companies in the distance have spotlights on, bringing little light to the city.
The confrontation with Chen Shen just now, strictly speaking, went beyond the rhetoric he had prepared before.
Until now, there was still a trace of cold sweat on Somo's forehead.
That is to say, Chen Shen himself said before that today is not a formal occasion and everyone can speak freely.
Otherwise, if only these words continue, the laws of the territory will be pressed on him immediately.
However, the results of such an adventure are also gratifying.
At the very least, Chen Shen is willing to extend the invitation again and invite him to a more private place to continue the discussion. This is the biggest gain of this trip!
"I'll go to Mayor Chen to get our trading license stamped later. You can go back first, or you can wait for me in the car."
"But I'm not sure how long it will take, if you're in a hurry"
After saying a few words, Su Mo found that Zhang Min didn't respond. He turned around and had to stop talking.
The confrontation with the Chen family, the largest family in the entire Tianyuan territory, was obviously beyond the scope of her knowledge.
Until now, Zhang Min still has not been able to recover from the tit-for-tat situation, looking dumb and stupid.
"Okay, then just wait for me in the car."
After dragging Zhang Min to the parking lot and finding a car to sit down in, Su Mo quickly found the route and drove out of the Flying Eagle Hotel.
The Mayor's Building of Hope City is built in the most central location. Although it is only three floors, it is still very eye-catching.
In the distance, Sumo saw the sign and parked his car in the parking lot downstairs.
Boom, boom, boom.
As soon as the car came to a stop, there was a knock on the driver's window.
Sumo turned around and looked.
A young woman wearing a brown camisole and light black trousers was standing next to the car with a smile.
Su Mo rolled down the window and was slightly confused: "Really?"
"Mr. Su, I am Mayor Chen's secretary. If you are here to apply for a trading license, please follow me."
"Are you Jiang Biao?"
Su Mo opened the car door with some surprise, got out of the car and looked up and down.
When he heard this name before, he thought that the other party was still a strong man even if he was not a burly man.
But now who would have thought that the person with this name is actually a girl with hair that reaches her shoulders.
"Mr. Su, you are not the first person to wonder about my name."
"It's a long story, let's talk while we walk?"
"Okay!" After closing the car door, Su Mo followed Jiang Biao to the mayor's building without any trace of ink.
After passing through the security check channel, we walked through a not-so-short cement road.
"Jiang Biao" slowed down until the game prompt sounded again, indicating that the use of storage space here would also be prohibited.
"Mr. Su, let me introduce you again. I am Mayor Chen's current secretary, Jiang Xiaoyu."
"Jiang Biao is actually my father's name, and he is also Mayor Chen's first secretary."
"Your father?" Sumo quickened his pace slightly, and the two of them walked side by side.
He is very curious about the development of the territory over the years.
Every time he gets an opportunity, Sumo will never let it go, and this time will be no exception.
"Yes, my father joined the Tianyuan Territory in the second year of Wasteland. Because he was appreciated by Mayor Chen, he was promoted to be his first secretary, responsible for conveying Mayor Chen's messages and instructions."
"It was only later that due to some accidents, my father was killed by gangsters and was forced to sacrifice, so this position was replaced by a replacement."
"However, after several changes of people, Mayor Chen was not satisfied. He often recalled that when my father was here, the mayor's management office had no choice but to come over and call me and let me try to see if I could top it."
"No one would have thought that one cap would last two years."
"So that's it." After understanding the whole story, Su Mo nodded slightly: "Mr. Jiang must have done a good job when he was in office. Mayor Chen just told me that when he came over, he misremembered the name and called the secretary's name Mr. Jiang." "
"Haha, yes" Jiang Xiaoyu showed a smile: "Mayor Chen has a lot to deal with every day, and there are too many things to deal with, so he often subconsciously calls out my father's name in front of outsiders."
"But Mr. Su's skills are deep enough. This is the first time I have seen Mayor Chen react like this." After saying that, Jiang Xiaoyu turned his head with deep meaning and tried to read it on Su Mo's face. to something.
But unfortunately, Sumo still only had a simple smile on his face, making it unclear what he was thinking.
Go to the end of the road.
"The mayor is on the third floor. Once the elevator goes up, go inside. I won't go up and disturb your conversation."
"Thank you!" After pressing the elevator button, Sumo nodded slightly and watched as the elevator door slowly closed and Jiang Xiaoyu's face disappeared from sight.
Creak, creak.
As the elevator shaft moved slowly, there was a slight tremor.
When the door opened again, Sumo walked out and stood in the slightly dark third floor.
Ahead is a slightly lengthy corridor, revealing the end that emits bursts of light.
Unlike the bright lights of the Eagle Hotel, the Mayor's Building is dimly lit at night, giving people a somewhat eerie feeling.
Moreover, the paintings hanging next to the aisle also appear black and white in the darkness, which makes people feel even more creepy.
Walking along the aisle, Somo walked slowly, looking at the paintings along the way.
The first few paintings probably represent the changes in the territory over the years.
From a small village covering an area of ten acres, to a town with an area of more than one hundred acres, to a county with an industrial park
Each painting continuously records the changes in Hope City.
As he walked back, when the first portrait painting appeared, Somo paused and stood silently.
An old man with fluffy hair and a somewhat cold face.
The old man's eyes are very sharp, even in the painting, it makes people look at each other.
His right hand held an irregular-shaped object. Sumo looked closer and saw four familiar Chinese characters on the object.
Kuanfeng energy stone.
"Lu Kuan?"
Sumo was trembling a little, and continued to walk back and look back.
But just as he took one step, he stopped again and stood in front of the second painting.
Like the previous painting, this painting also has an old man.
But his face was much kinder, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to be filled with smiles.
"Ai Jianfeng?"
He realized that the owners of these black and white paintings were the same people he had been searching for for more than a month.
Somo lowered his head slightly and quickened his pace.
"Lu Kuan, Ai Jianfeng, Su Deben, Su Wei, Li Hu, Zhuo Junfan, Qi Qin, Wu Feiguang"
More and more familiar people began to meet him in his paintings.
Either young or old.
Walking to the end of the aisle, Sumo saw a painting that looked like it had just been added.
Up there, it was the person who had just briefly met him and then disappeared into the quantum ocean.
Jiyang!
"You seem familiar with them?"
Suddenly, Chen Shen's voice came to Sumo's ears. He trembled secretly all over, and immediately turned his head to look to his side.
At some point, Chen Shen had walked out of the bright office and stood beside him.
"Well, I heard people say that they are the heroes of the territory." Sumo nodded against his will, suppressing the expression on his face.
In fact, when he saw Lu Kuan's black and white portrait, he had already vaguely guessed what he would see next.
But even though this is eight years later when there is no human Su Shen, even though this is just a ruin created by the game.
Sumo still couldn't immediately accept the fact before him.
He didn't dare to think that the two red-faced and thick-necked people who were fighting for the name of a stone would end up in such a "small" way to sacrifice.
He didn't dare to think that those familiar faces would only be commemorated in paintings eight years later.
"Yes, they are heroes, and the territory will always remember them." Chen Shen sighed.
"Alas, time has passed, and few people who have joined the territory know about them now, but it doesn't matter, as long as we can remember it."
"Come, come to my office." After glancing at the paintings in the distance, Chen Shen turned around and walked towards the light first.
Su Mo paused, and finally walked over, and together they came to a room about one hundred square meters in size.
It's a large area and has a lot of stuff inside.
When you first enter, there is a reception area with two rows of sofas facing each other and a small coffee table in the middle.
Against the wall is a three-meter-long square table.
There was a chair behind the table. At first glance, Sumo looked familiar. Then after thinking about it, he realized that this chair was actually the one he had handmade in the shelter. He didn't know when he came here.
Looking inside, it is Chen Shen's own office area.
There are three tables connected together, four or five chairs, and a simple cot that has not been put away.
In addition, there are a lot of documents piled up scatteredly on it, which makes people feel messy at first glance.
As for the very back, there was a living area separated by a screen. Somo could barely see that there were two beds and a simple stove placed inside for rest.
"I'm a little busy at the moment and I'm too lazy to clean up. You can find a place to sit first."
"Where is your trading license? I'll get it stamped for you, otherwise you'll forget it later and never know when you'll have time."
After taking the permit handed over by Sumo from his pocket, Chen Shen, still wearing a mask, returned to his desk and turned on the lamp.
After a few seconds, he stamped it, picked it up and blew on it, then groped under the table and took out a glass bottle of liquid.
"Want a drink? I rarely want to give wine made by Baoshui to outsiders."
After walking to the sofa opposite Somo and sitting down, Chen Shen handed over the license and shook the bottle of wine in his hand.
Under the light, the wine bottle reflects a faint blue light, full of mysterious beauty and intoxicating luster.
"Okay!" Putting away the license, Sumo nodded, took the wine glass and put it to his lips and drank.
The mellowness of the nether energy water, the spiciness of the wine, plus a hint of sweetness that resembles lychee.
"How's it going?" Chen Shen himself took a big sip, as if looking forward to Su Mo's answer.
“Good wine, but still tastes bad”
"What's wrong with the taste?"
"It almost tastes bitter. Things that are too sweet always make people feel illusory, like a whitewashed peace. It makes people feel comfortable when they first see it. After a long time, they peel off the fig leaf and find that there are bones underneath." I just drank After taking a sip, Somo put the cup down and shook his head slightly.
And his performance also made Chen Shen slightly stunned, and his eyes under the mask suddenly became sharp: "Tell me, what price do I need to pay, or what price does the territory need to pay before you are willing to give it to him?" 's whereabouts"
"What if I told you he would never come back?"
"Forever?" After hearing Sumo's answer, Chen Shen's voice trembled slightly, but quickly calmed down.
"Su Youzong, I have read your information. If you have not disguised your identity, there are only two possibilities."
"First, the information is forged. You disguised your past, or took away other people's identities to hide yourself."
"Second, the information is true, but you have had some adventures that ordinary people can't imagine, and you have reached this day."
Chen Shen took out a stack of information from the leather bag on the sofa and slowly placed it on the table.
Sumo took a look through the data cover and could probably guess that what was inside was all the information about his original life in the New World.
"I always feel that there may not be much meaning in guessing which one it is. I only look at your current performance. So tonight, your performance has won my respect."
"Tell me, what do you think the territory should do now so that it can survive."
There was no emotion in Chen Shen's voice, but the word "survive" was enough to show the urgency of the situation.
"By the way, I can tell you first that the territory's current real food inventory is enough to feed one million people for five years, or five million people for one year."
"The current inventory of building materials in the territory can also fully supply the "Underground Civilization" plan of the Academy of Sciences. You know that an underground city with a depth of 1,000 meters will be built under Hope City within half a year, housing nearly one million people."
"The territory's weapons, equipment, and combatants are enough for us to start a battle of 500,000 people."
""
He talked about a lot of basic information about the territory. Although it was not specific data, it was enough to show Chen Shen's sincerity.
However, these data did not make much sense before the questions he raised.
"In five months, the non-fight agreement will be completely relaxed among all human territories?"
"Yes, our Tianyuan Territory and Longqi Territory have a history, so we can receive this news four months earlier than the other two places. The initial time is January 1, the ninth year of the last calendar year, and there are still five months left. The time ahead is enough for us to prepare.”
“Only five months”
Although he was fully mentally prepared, Sumo still frowned deeply when he thought about the consequences after the agreement was released.
Eight years have passed in the wasteland, and the number of humans has continued to decline to a new freezing point. The reason for opening the end-of-war agreement is simple.
Concentrate resources and preserve the fire.
The development of large territories has reached a bottleneck. If there are not more resources of all kinds to develop, it will only limit the pace.
In the same way, the efficiency of resource utilization in small and medium-sized territories is low. Delaying time will only make the population decline unstoppable.
The only option now is to relax the agreement so that large territories that are capable of development can get more and expand faster.
Only by developing all resources as quickly as possible can we try to break through the current predicament.
But here's the thing.
For the small and medium-sized territories in this battle, they don't need to fight at all, and there will be no casualties. They just need to wait until the large territories come and bow their heads.
Only between large territories will conflicts break out, resulting in the possibility of head-on firefights.
Unfortunately, over the years, the Tianyuan Territory has occupied a location that is rich in real estate and has a variety of resources.
Coupled with the extremely precious energy stone mines, and the four super technology companies that are enough to rank at the forefront of the New World.
Several large surrounding territories that are eyeing the agreement will never let go of this "once-in-a-lifetime" opportunity after the agreement is opened.
"It's broken. I'll tell you that with the strength of the territory, even without me, it shouldn't be a problem to survive the zombie disaster in a year. The difficulty level given by the game this time is much smaller than before."
"But now it seems that if the war cannot be resolved in five months"
"One year later, there is no question whether Tianyuan Territory will be there or not. There will be no chance to survive the disaster."
My heart sank slightly, thinking of scenes similar to the group of beasts in "Wuya Mansion" in all directions.
Sumo was able to understand many phenomena immediately, which he could not understand at all before.
