Chapter 623: The Older the Ginger, the Spicier the Ginger!
The order of the Chief was given…
The Minister of Transport did not dare to stay still… After being in a difficult position for several days, he finally gritted his teeth and made a decision. Great! If he cut off the connection, then he would cut off the connection. It was better to be scolded by others than to lose his job, right?
Thus, very soon, the Federation government gave a notice —
“We will unilaterally mark Weichu City as a restricted area and block all means of communication with it. Within a week’s time, all citizens who are still in Weichu City will be ordered to return quickly. Otherwise, they will bear the consequences!”
Such an aggressive and hostile declaration quickly caused a bunch of netizens to fly into a rage!
What?
Their Federation was a country that practiced democracy. Since when did it become popular to make a promise?
And they had to bear the consequences… F*ck, how were they going to make us take responsibility?
As expected by the Minister of Transport, they had indeed become the targets of the first wave of attacks from the netizens. The Flames of war were ignited in an instant, and the people from the Ministry of Transport were even scolded to the point of spewing blood!
It had only been an hour since the notice was sent. The comments section under the official website of the Ministry of Transport was simply unreadable. The netizens’ comments were getting more and more aggresive!
“Hehe… if you guys have the ability to block the traffic to Weichu City, why don’t you go and connect to other galaxies? You’re just babbling in front of your own people! Useless!”
“I have to say, I really doubt how the Minister of Transport took office. You made such a decision… are you prepared to show off your lower IQ? Other than this reason, I really can’t find any other excuse to justify this!”
“Cutting off the transportation connection with Weichu City… to think that all of you could do such a thing! This is completely ignoring the opinions and interests of our citizens. I demand that this decision be canceled!”
“That’s right, this method isn’t reasonable at all. Cancel it, we must cancel it!”
“I agree with the person above!”
…
Because of this matter, the internet was in full swing. The opinions of the citizens were extremely unified and resolute. However, the higher-ups of the Federation were determined this time. No matter what the netizens said, they just continued to carry out their actions!
Up till now, the Federation had already canceled four of the ship flights to the city!
The remaining few were to serve the citizens who were still in the city, so that they could be transported back in time… After a week, the remaining few flights would also be canceled!
The citizens who were originally staying in District 9 were still unhappy with the Federation’s actions. When the ship came to pick them up, only a few of them went up. The rest of them used this method of not going back to express their dissatisfaction and rejection.
If it was in the past, the Federation would definitely consider their requests. However, now that they were facing Ning Yiyuan and Mo Chu, the attitude of the higher-ups suddenly became resolute!
They would not try to persuade you. In any case, since you won’t be back in a week’s time, you should just stay in Weichu City! There was no need for you to return in the future!
At the start, the citizens of District 9 were still able to hold their opinions. However, in the next two to three days, their psychological defenses gradually crumbled.
That’s right, District 9 was indeed very good. There was also their beloved Spirit Food Restaurant here.
But their homes were in other districts. Their families and jobs were not here. How could they abandon all of them just because of a moment of impulse?
Hundreds of people boarded the returning ship, and their departure also led to more people leaving.
As a result, the originally booming Spirit Food Restaurant gradually lost its previous glory.
Although it was still full and there were still people waiting in line, it was incomparable to the previous grand occasion!
And this was precisely the goal of the higher-ups of the Federation!
Isn’t your Spirit Food Restaurant doing well in business? Isn’t the flow of people flourishing?
Now that they’ve come to strike at the root of the problem, let’s see how proud you can be!
“Haha… Do the higher-ups of the Federation think they’ve won?” Elder Qin sat in his living room and sipped his tea. His eyes could not help but reveal a hint of mockery!
Ever since Elder Ning left, Elder Qin had not gone to work in the government anymore. He had been idling at home. Even so, he was still very clear about the Federation’s movements and news!
He was extremely disappointed with their performance this time!
“What do you mean? Although the Federation’s move was not genuine, the effect is still pretty good. At least the number of people in District 9 had decreased a lot compared to before, moreover, the influence of Weichu City on the citizens was gradually weakening. No matter which aspect one looked at it, the Federation’s action this time was effective…”
“Hmph!” Elder Qin glanced at his nephew and could not help but snort softly. “You’re still too young! You’ve only seen what’s on the surface, yet you don’t think about the deeper layers. Do you really think that Ning Yiyuan will be controlled and influenced by the Federation?”
If that was the case, things would not have developed to such an extent!
“Then what you mean is…”
“The Federation’s move is too smelly!”
A wise glint flashed across Elder Qin’s eyes, and his tone was filled with disappointment that he had failed to live up to expectations, “Do the higher-ups of the Federation think that they can suppress Weichu City, Ning Yiyuan, and the others with just this one move? Hmph! Don’t throw stones at your own feet when the time comes!”
“You don’t think well of the Federation’s actions?”
“Nonsense!” Elder Qin put down the cup in his hand heavily. A few drops of hot water splashed out from the cup in an instant. Elder Qin’s expression instantly became serious, and his tone became even more resolute. “Just you wait and see. Ning Yiyuan and the others will definitely retaliate!”
…
As the saying goes, the older the ginger, the spicier it was!
The subsequent development of the facts successfully verified this point!
