Chapter 741

call

Outside the Eagle Hotel, standing in the cool night wind, Su Mo breathed out.

The noise of the surrounding market and the fragrance floating to his nose made him feel a little calmer.

Stand at the gate of the hotel and look into the distance.

Hope city at nine o'clock at night is obviously more "depressed" than beacon city at twoorthree o'clock at night. Only the buildings of the four major companies in the distance are lit, bringing little light to the city.

The fight with Chen Shen just now has exceeded his prepared words in a strict sense.

Up to now, there is still a cold sweat on Su Mo's forehead that is not completely dry.

That is, Chen Shen said earlier that today is not a formal occasion, and everyone can speak freely.

Otherwise, if this speech goes on alone, the law of the territory can be pressed on him at the first time.

However, the result of such an adventure is also gratifying.

At least Chen Shen is willing to invite him again to a more private occasion to continue the discussion, which is the biggest gain of this trip!

"Later, I'll go to Mayor Chen and stamp our trading license. You can go back first or 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, he found that Zhang Min didn't respond. Su Mo turned his head and had to stop talking.

The confrontation with Chen, the largest family in the whole Tianyuan territory, has obviously gone beyond her cognitive range.

Until now, Zhang Min still can't recover from the tit for tat situation, a dull look.

"All right, then wait for me in the car."

Take Zhang Min to the parking lot and find a car to sit down. Su Mo soon asked for a good way and drove out of the range of the flying eagle hotel.

The mayor's building of hope city is built in the most central position. Although it has only three floors, it is also eye-catching.

In the distance, Su Mo saw the sign and parked his car in the parking lot downstairs.

Dongdongdong.

Just as the car stopped steadily, the window of the main driver was knocked.

Su Mo turned his head and looked.

A young woman in a brown mandarin jacket and Tan black trousers was standing by the car with a smile.

Su Mo rolled down the window, slightly puzzled, "are you?"

"Mr. Su, I'm Mayor Chen's secretary. If you're here to apply for a trading license, please follow me."

"Are you Jiang Biao?"

Slightly stunned, he opened the door, and Su Mo got out of the car and looked up and down.

When he heard the name before, he thought he was a strong man, even if he was not a strong man.

But now who would have thought that the girl with this name turned out to be a girl with hair over her shoulders.

"Mr. Su, you are not the first person to doubt my name."

"It's a long story. Let's talk as we walk?"

"Good!" Close the car door, and Su Mo doesn't have ink stains. Follow Jiang Biao to the mayor's building.

After passing through the security inspection channel, I passed through a cement road that is not short.

Until the prompt tone of the game sounded again, indicating that the use of storage space would also be prohibited here, "Jiang Biao" slowed down.

"Mr. Su, meet me again. I'm Jiang Xiaoyu, the current Secretary of Mayor Chen."

"Jiang Biao, in fact, is my father's name, and he is also the first secretary around Mayor Chen."

"Your father?" Sumo quickened his pace slightly, and the two walked side by side.

He is curious about the development of the territory over the years.

Su Mo won't let go of every opportunity, and this time is no exception.

"Yes, my father joined Tianyuan territory in the second year of waste land. Because he was appreciated by Mayor Chen, he was promoted to be the first secretary around him, responsible for conveying Mayor Chen's messages and instructions."

"Only later, because of some accidents, my father was killed by gangsters and was forced to sacrifice, this position was replaced."

"However, Mayor Chen was not satisfied with several people. He often recalled that when my father was there, the mayor's management office had no choice but to come and call me and let me try whether I could top it."

"Who didn't think it would take two years"

"So it is." knowing the whole story, Su Mo nodded slightly, "Mr. Jiang must have done well when he was in office. Just when Mayor Chen told me to come, he also remembered the wrong name and called the Secretary's name Mr. Jiang."

"Haha, yes," Jiang Xiaoyu smiled. "Mayor Chen is busy every day. He has too many things to deal with, so he often subconsciously calls out my father's name in front of outsiders."

"But Mr. Su's skill is deep enough. It's the first time I've seen Mayor Chen react like this." after saying that, Jiang Xiaoyu turned his head with full meaning and tried to read something on Su Mo's face.

Unfortunately, Su Mo still 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. Go up the elevator and go inside. I won't go up and disturb your conversation."

"Thank you!" Press the elevator button, Su Mo nodded slightly, watching the elevator door slowly close, Jiang Xiaoyu's face disappeared in the field of vision.

Creak, creak.

Between the elevator shaft running slowly, there were bursts of subtle jitters.

When the door reopened, sumo went out and stood in the slightly dark third floor.

Ahead, there is a slightly lengthy corridor, revealing the end emitting bursts of light.

Unlike the bright lights of the Eagle Hotel, the mayor's building is dark at night, giving people a somewhat gloomy feeling.

And the paintings hanging next to the aisle also show black and white in the dark, which makes people feel creepy.

Walking along the aisle, Su Mo walked slowly and looked at these paintings all the way.

The first few paintings are probably the changes of the territory over the years.

From a small village covering an area of ten mu, to a small town covering hundreds of mu, and then to a county with an industrial park

Every painting constantly records the changes of hope city.

And after walking back, with the appearance of the first portrait painting, Su Mo's footsteps stopped and stood still in silence.

An old man with fluffy hair and a cold face.

The old man's eyes are very sharp, even in the painting, it also makes people have a feeling of looking at each other.

In his right hand, he held an irregularly shaped object. Su Mo looked close and saw four familiar Chinese characters on the object.

Broad peak energy stone.

"Lu Kuan?"

Su Mo shivered and continued to walk back and look back.

But just one step away, his pace stopped again and stood in front of the second painting.

Like the previous painting, there is also an old man in this painting.

But his face was much kinder, and his wrinkles seemed to be full of smiles.

"Ai Jianfeng?"

Realize that the owners of these black-and-white paintings are those who have been searching for information for more than a month.

Sumo slightly lowered his head and accelerated 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 on the paintings.

Either young or old.

Walking to the end of the aisle, sumo saw a painting that seemed to have just been added.

That's the one who just met him in a hurry and disappeared into the quantum ocean

Jiyang!

"You seem to know them well?"

Suddenly, Chen Shen's voice came to Su Mo's ear. With a concealed shiver, he immediately turned around and looked at his side.

Somehow, Chen Shen came out of the lighted office and stood beside him.

"Well, I've heard that they are the heroes of the territory." Su Mo nodded against his heart, suppressing the rich expression on his face.

In fact, when he saw LV Kuan's black-and-white portrait, he had vaguely guessed what he would see next.

But although there is no human Su God eight years later, although here is only a relic built by the game.

Sumo is still unable to immediately accept the fact in front of him.

He didn't dare to think that the two men with red faces and thick necks fighting for a stone name were so "insignificant" to sacrifice.

He did not dare to think that those familiar faces could only be remembered in paintings eight years later.

"Yes, they are heroes, and the territory will always remember them." Chen Shen sighed.

"Alas, for a long time, few people who have joined the territory now know them, but it doesn't matter, as long as we can remember them."

"Come, come to my office." glancing at the painting in the distance, Chen Shen turned and walked to the light first.

Su Mo paused and finally followed him to a room about 100 square meters in size.

The area is large, and there are many things in it.

Just entering the door is the reception area. There are two opposite rows of sofas with a small tea table in the middle.

Against the wall, there is a three meter long square table.

There was a chair behind the table. At first glance, Su Mo looked familiar. Then he thought about it and found that it was the one he had previously made by hand in the shelter. I don't know when he came here.

Looking inside, it is Chen Shen's own office area.

Three connected tables, fourorfive chairs, and a simple bed that has also been confiscated.

In addition, there are a lot of documents on it, which makes people feel messy at a glance.

As for the living area at the back, which is separated by a screen, sumo can barely see that there are two beds and a simple cooker in it for rest.

"I'm a little busy these days. I'm too lazy to clean up. Please find a place to sit first."

"Where is your trading license? I'll stamp it for you, otherwise I forget later and don't know when I have time."

After receiving the permit handed by Su Mo from his pocket, Chen Shen still wore a mask and returned to his desk to turn on the lamp.

A few seconds later, he sealed the seal, took it up and blew it. He fumbled under the table and took out a glass bottle of liquid.

"Have a glass of wine brewed by Baoshui, but I'm rarely willing to give it to outsiders."

Go to the sofa opposite Su Mo and sit down. Chen Shen handed over the license and shook the wine bottle in his hand.

Under the light, the bottle reflects a faint blue light, full of mysterious beauty and intoxicating luster.

"Good!" Put away the license, sumo nodded, took the glass and put it on his lips to drink slightly.

You Neng water is mellow, the liquor is spicy, and a touch of lychee like aftertaste.

"How's it going?" Chen Shen himself took a gulp, as if slightly expecting Su Mo's answer.

"Good wine, but it's almost delicious"

"What's the difference?"

"Almost bitter, too sweet things always make people feel unreal, like whitewashed peace. At first sight, it's comforting. After a long time, I uncover that layer of shame cloth and find that there are all bones below." after only a sip, Su Mo put down the cup and gently shook his head.

His performance also made Chen Shen a little stunned, and his eyes under the mask suddenly sharpened: "tell me, what price I need to pay, or what price the territory needs to pay, before you are willing to give his whereabouts."

"What if I told you that he would never come back?"

"Forever?" Hearing Su Mo's answer, Chen Shen's voice trembled slightly, but soon calmed down.

"Su youzong, I've read your information. If you don't disguise your identity, there are only two possibilities."

"First, the information is fake. You disguise your past, or deny the identity of others to cover up yourself."

"Second, the information is true, but you have obtained some adventures that ordinary people can't imagine, and have come to this day."

Take out a stack of materials from the leather bag on the sofa, and Chen Shen slowly put them on the table.

Su Mo glanced through the data cover and could probably guess that what was described inside was all the information about his original body in the new world.

"I always think it doesn't make much sense to guess what kind of possibility it is. I just look at your current performance. So tonight, your performance won my respect."

"Tell me, what do you think the territory should do now in order to" live "

Chen Shen's voice can't hear any feelings, but it uses three words to live, which is enough to see the urgency of the current situation.

"By the way, I can tell you first that the real grain inventory in the territory is enough for onemillion people to eat for five years, or fivemillion people to eat for a year."

"The current inventory of construction materials in the territory can also supply the" underground civilization "plan of the Academy of Sciences, which you know. Within six months, an underground city with a depth of kilometers will be built under the city of hope, accommodating nearly one million people."

"The weapons, equipment and fighters in the territory are enough for us to fight a battle of 500000 people."

“”

A lot of basic information about the territory has been said. Although it is not specific data, it is enough to show Chen Shen's sincerity.

However, before the questions he raised, these data did not make much sense.

"In five months, all human territories will completely release the non combat agreement?"

"Yes, there is a reason between Tianyuan territory and Longqi territory, so we can receive this message four months earlier than the other two places. The initial time is January 1, the ninth year of the last calendar. Now we have more than five months to prepare."

"Only five months"

Although he was fully prepared, Su Mo still frowned deeply when he thought of the result of the release of the agreement.

After eight years of wasteland, the number of human beings has been falling to a new freezing point. The reason for opening the armistice agreement is simple.

Concentrate resources and preserve kindling.

The development of large-scale territories has reached a bottleneck. If there are no more resources to develop, it will only limit the pace.

Similarly, small and medium-sized territories are inefficient in the use of resources, and delaying time will only make the speed of population decline unable to stop the car.

At present, only by liberalizing the agreement, can we get more large-scale territories that can be developed and expand faster.

Only by developing all resources at the fastest speed can we try to break through the current dilemma.

But the problem is.

For the small and medium-sized territories, they don't need to fight at all, and there will be no casualties. They just need to wait until the big territories come and bow down.

Only between large-scale territories can conflicts break out, resulting in the possibility of frontal exchanges of fire.

Unfortunately, over the years, Tianyuan territory has occupied a position with rich real estate and various resources.

In addition, the precious energy stone mine and the four super technology companies that are enough to rank in the forefront of the new world.

Several big territories around will never let go of this "once-in-a-lifetime" opportunity after the agreement is opened.

"No, I'll say that with the strength of the territory, even without me, it shouldn't be a problem to survive the zombie disaster a year later. The difficulty given by the game this time is much smaller than before."

"But now it seems that if the war cannot be solved in five months"

"One year later, whether Tianyuan territory is in or not is a matter of two words. There is no chance to survive the disaster."

My heart sank slightly, and I thought that there were scenes similar to those animals in "boundless mansion" in all directions.

Su Mo immediately understood too many phenomena that he couldn't understand at all before
