Chapter 1023 Renewal of the year sequence, the end of the year in the wasteland!
The riots in Qinggang City came much earlier than expected.
December 17th of the waste earth calendar year.
Following Commander Edmund's order, the underground must be opened within twelve hours, and a wake-up voting meeting for Manager Hades was held.
The relationship between the ground and the ground began to deteriorate sharply, and in just half a day it turned into a situation of imminent civil strife.
More and more soldiers wearing exoskeleton armor stood in front of the checkpoint.
Hundreds of armored vehicles were also surrounded, and as soon as the major checkpoints were opened, they rushed into them to extinguish the tendency of the traitors.
Whether above or below ground.
With an alloy firewall more than ten meters thick, no one expected that it would evolve into the current situation.
"Edmund, are you crazy? If you dare to order them to attack the firewall today, it will be a rebellion!"
Through the communication device, Tang En's face on the screen was already ashen.
Bold and bold can no longer describe Edmond's current operations.
To be more precise, he just wanted to rebel!
"Little guy, you were still a puddle of liquid when I was galloping through this wasteland, how dare you talk to me like that."
Edmund sneered, and a disdainful smile appeared on his tense face.
The other party knew the news temporarily.
But this scene has been rehearsed in his mind for a whole week.
He was thinking all the time, what kind of expressions and surprises these stubborn guys in the underground would show when they suddenly found out that they wanted to forcefully break through the firewall.
Now, he sees it.
Sure enough, as imagined, these guys are essentially no different from the group of wanderers.
They all have the same greed for life and fear of death, the same fear of the unknown coming.
"To tell you the truth, if you don't open this firewall today, you have to open it. We are already ready to be destroyed!"
"Do you believe it or not, as long as I give an order, they will start attacking?"
"Crazy, Commander, you are absolutely crazy."
Tang En's face moved away, and an old man with an old face and full of white hair appeared in front of the screen.
He tremblingly raised his hand and pointed to the screen:
"Edmund, you actually picked those damned bedbugs, those homeless people to come into our shelter. And issued them weapons, trained them to be soldiers, don't you want to divide our refuge, like that damned hunting tiger, To replace Lord Hades?"
"Oh? I said old guy, your teeth are almost gone, but your ability to put on a hat hasn't lost at all?"
The disdain on Edmund's face was even more obvious.
These methods are simply too childish, and it is impossible to imagine that a sixty-year-old person can say the words.
Don't they think this is still a "peaceful" blue star?
After staying in that strong fortress for a long time, his brain has degenerated, and he forgot that the outside world will change.
"At the beginning, I should have taken people out of the industrial zone and let you get in touch with the undead."
"Don't worry, when Lord Hades wakes up, he will understand what I am doing now."
"You are dreaming."
Seeing that Edmund seemed to be determined, he wanted to open the firewall and go underground to call a vote for the managers to wake up.
A group of old antiques who have dominated the underground for a long time finally started to panic.
Over the long years, climbing from the bottom to the current position, what they plan is to enjoy themselves in their later years.
If the manager Hades doesn't wake up immediately, they still have more than ten years to slowly deal with the mess outside.
Find that extremely important industrial core, rebuild the above-ground industrial area, and take Qinggang City into your hands completely by the way.
But if Hades wakes up now
Think about it with your ass, at least half of the people in high positions should be responsible for the chaos outside.
Who is in charge?
Who dares to take responsibility?
Who can be responsible?
The three questions were raised by Tang En in the previous "Do you want to open the firewall" meeting.
No one can answer, and no one can afford the price.
"Edmund, I know what you want. Withdraw now, and I will send a large amount of supplies right away."
"And we can ignore the things you did before, even as if they never happened."
Tang En pursed his lips, and under the "forced questioning" of dozens of pairs of old-fashioned eyes, he could only stand up and negotiate terms.
Don't look at Edmund screaming fiercely now, in fact, if the manager Hades wakes up, he will definitely not escape punishment.
At the least, they were taken out and shot, and at worst, they were tortured to death.
But the point is that Edmund now knows in his heart that he will never escape, and he will drag the people below to back him up.
This is a bit uncomfortable.
None of the people below are willing to be buried with Edmund, so now they can only pinch their noses and ask for peace.
"Heh Tang En, I thought you would continue to be stubborn for a while."
I didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
On Edmund's dark face, the smile became more and more presumptuous, and finally he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
And when he finished laughing, the face of the person on the other side of the video was almost dripping.
Only then did he say:
"Okay, Ming people don't say dark words, since you are so straightforward, then I won't hide it."
"The materials, equipment, and manpower on these lists are ready for me to deliver, and I will continue to help you block the riots outside."
The voice fell, and a document was sent down the communication device.
Tang En clicked to open it, and only read the above few lines, then shook his head and refused: "This is impossible, you have already lost one industrial core, if you lose another one, we will definitely not be able to escape when Lord Hades wakes up." responsibility."
"We will get back the lost one, and this one is only borrowed from you temporarily."
"No, unless you get it back first."
The two began to tug back and forth.
There are only five industrial cores in the entire Qinggang Refuge, three of which are underground and two are above ground.
Among the five units, only the lost one and the one at the bottom of the underground pressure box are used for construction.
"Without getting it, the industrial area cannot be rebuilt."
"It cannot be rebuilt, and we will not be able to stop the next turmoil that breaks out."
"If you can't stop it, it's better to hold a manager's recovery meeting now. Anyway, if you die sooner or later, you have to die."
Edmund began to play rogue.
Tang En subconsciously wanted to refuse, but after scanning the silent old stubborn people around him, he suddenly became silent.
Perhaps, this is the price for everyone to support him as the No. 1 manager.
Edmund had shown himself to bear all responsibility for the loss above ground.
Then underground, there must be someone who will stand up and take the blame away.
Obviously, he is the youngest of all, the least senior, and the highest status.
All in all, it's the best choice.
"Have you thought about the consequences, if you still fail in the end?"
"Consequences?" Edmund shook his head again and again, and his tone softened inexplicably: "Boy, when you see with your own eyes that those damned radiation beasts will learn from humans to snatch our planes and learn our knowledge. Consequences, it is completely gone." It doesn't matter anymore."
"You should know better than me what will happen to this refuge if no one comes forward."
"What are you going to do?"
"Rebuild the industrial area, take over all the shelters, and only our voices will remain in this city."
Tang En's eyes lit up, but quickly dimmed again: "Only relying on those homeless people?"
"Of course not, agree to my conditions, and you will soon see that reality is developing in a good direction."
"Well, although your persuasion methods are rubbish, I agree to your terms."
The industrial core has already been given, and it doesn't matter whether the following materials are given or not.
Over the long years, the resources stored in the Clear Harbor Refuge have grown to a terrifying level.
Even if the industrial area on the ground is destroyed three more times, there will still be enough materials for reconstruction.
In addition to solving the food and clothing of the residents, only a negligible amount of electricity is needed.
Instead of leaving the resource materials moldy in the warehouse, it is better to give Edmund a brain and see what kind of big news he is going to make.
"Heh, boy, it seems that you are not lucky enough to be the number one manager."
"I, Edmund, sincerely hope that you can become a real manager."
After getting what he really wanted, Edmund sincerely sent his blessings.
At the last moment when the video hung up, he could see that the old stubborn behind the screen breathed a sigh of relief.
Needless to say, this is a win-win situation.
only.
This double win means that he won twice!
"Announce it and tell everyone."
Edmund looked at his deputy and straightened his chest.
"Starting tomorrow, the industrial area will start to be rebuilt. We have enough materials to reproduce the glory of Sunshine Harbor Sanctuary on this land. We will rebuild our home on this dilapidated ruin!"
"Yes, by the way, tell those homeless people, tell them."
"Damn stuff, from tomorrow, everyone can eat three meals, the kind of unlimited supply."
"The premise is that they can find the toilet by themselves and not drag their excrement in the corner at will."
"A bunch of bedbugs!"
There was no real fighting in the Clear Harbor Refuge, but a new round of construction started.
The other shelters in the city couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, even Sumo, who was far away in the underground city, was relieved.
Well built.
Enemies without constraints and weaknesses are the most terrifying.
If these people don't rebuild that industrial area, they will target other people.
That would undoubtedly be a nightmare for millions of people in Qinggang City.
And now.
Throwing the letter from Qinggang New City into the trash can casually, Su Mo didn't take it seriously.
I don't know what the madness of Edmund, the supreme commander of the new city, is.
The letter actually wanted Tianyuan Refuge to "pay tribute" and exchange a large amount of precious materials for a vain guarantee.
When foreign enemies invade, will they lend a helping hand according to the situation?
It's a joke, who in this city doesn't know that you are the biggest enemy and the source of anxiety.
He can guarantee that even if the request in the letter is only a packet of starch.
In the entire Qinggang City, there will not be any gophers who will bow their heads and be small, and obediently send tributes.
but
This guy probably didn't expect to really get the tribute, otherwise it wouldn't be such a harsh requirement.
What he wants is probably just a pretext.
One that can send soldiers at any time to reward them?
"It doesn't matter what they are, as long as we proceed according to our rhythm, if war breaks out anyway, they won't come to our side immediately."
"By the way, have the people who went to the deep sea to spread the news set off?"
Chen Shen, who was sitting across the table, nodded.
"I left with the supplies yesterday. If everything goes well, I can reach the border of the New World before the New Year. I don't know if I can pass the news to every corner of the deep sea before the migration tide starts. "
Su Mo's heart skipped a beat.
"It doesn't matter, it won't be long before the fog disappears. When the fog that blocks the signal ends, the speed of transmitting information at sea will be faster."
Ordinary people may not have the equipment to receive electromagnetic wave signals, but there is a high probability of those sea stations.
Compared with the efficiency of homing pigeons, electromagnetic waves can travel tens of thousands of kilometers in minutes.
To promote the news, you only need to find a channel and you're done.
"That's right, the fog lasts too long, and I'm used to it."
Chen Shen touched the back of his head in embarrassment, and continued to report the detailed development of the village step by step.
Near the end of the year, the recent reporting work is almost changed.
One was Shen Ke, who was in charge of the logistics department's supplies, and the other was Qiao Yuansheng, who was in charge of the villagers' trade union.
Today, Li Hu, who was in charge of security, was sent away. Unexpectedly, Chen Shen came in again.
good!
Hearing more and more data representing the good development momentum of the territory being read out by Chen Shen, Su Mo nodded affirmatively.
Speaking of which, since he became the hands-off shopkeeper, he really didn't take care of these things anymore.
But in fact, after laying a good foundation, it is still difficult to grow crooked.
"There are no other unexpected circumstances, let's start preparing for the New Year's ceremony."
"I think everyone is definitely looking forward to this day."
There is less than half a month left before Chinese New Year.
The selected handmade enthusiasts have turned into workaholics, stepping on the sewing machines on the third and fourth floors of the dungeon. Hundreds of finished clothes are put into the warehouse every day.
Naturally, such an important matter cannot be hidden from his smart residents.
Although everyone in the chat channel suppressed the urge to discuss the New Year ceremony, Su Mo knew it very well.
The more depressed, the more looking forward to it.
At the end of this year.
Just like the Tianyuan territory that has been suppressed for a long time, it is finally time to release it!
