Chapter 161 A Little Accident

On November 11th, sunny, Shiqian City First Ring Arena.

"boom!"

When the twelve-gun salute was fired, the colorful flags and balloons were released together, and the whole city entered into a festive atmosphere.

From now to the end of the year, Shiqian City is already at the end of the year to rest and reorganize. Travelers from outside regions will choose to return to the nearest city if the situation permits, and have a good year.

Although the times are very different, and the new calendar that was reorganized after the fragmentation does not have the distinction between the lunar calendar and the solar calendar, the custom of oriental reunion at the end of the year is still preserved from generation to generation.

Watching the events at the end of the year has also become a regular program at the end of the year. Years of war history have made people accustomed to the year-end party of swords and swords.

The previous rookie preliminaries?Uh, that doesn't count.

Just like in the rookie divisions/secondary leagues of many competitions, the parties concerned care a lot and try their best to block their lives. That is all they have and the only opportunity for them to step on the stage, but it is very realistic. The audience's focus is still only on the real A fraction of the big drama (unlimited main game), even many people don't know the existence of the rookie game.

The closer to the end of the year, the more lively Shiqian City will be, but the entire month of December will only be reserved for the main events, the single-edged sword god competition and the unlimited sword master competition.

In those two actual combat events, it is possible for the real top fighters to appear. Considering that this year is a big year, in order to get a place, there will basically be a large number of titles Ruthless and Quasi-Mythical.

Therefore, the time left for the rookies is only this November when the main match starts, who cares about your secondary league and rookie match.

But at least for now, before December, they are indeed the focus of the entire Shiqian city.

All the attention is focused on them, there are their posters on the streets, TV and the media are rolling news about the newcomers.

Now, the outstanding ones even have the treatment of being able to sign autographs on the street, er, it seems to be a bit similar to some people, but in fact, this is the treatment that the real strong should enjoy.

Next time, if you still want to get this kind of treatment and get a battle medal above the second level, then there will be news reports in the streets and alleys, and you will have the chance to become famous.

People may forget history without conscience, but it is absolutely impossible to ignore the ongoing war.

In this era, the strong are still sought after and respected. After all, any sword master who chooses to leave the city is in a sense the protector and continuation of the human race.

Compared with other similar big cities, Shiqian City with a history of only 400 years is not a long history, but it is full of vitality and the atmosphere of the times.

Some people may forget it because of their peaceful life, but every year, the figures of swords and swords and deaths in various media will remind them that being able to stay safely in the city and choose their own way of life is the safe zone and periphery of the city laid down by the ancestors and ancestors. seat belt.

Even now, every day, there are still countless people of the same kind and compatriots fighting outside, and even if they die outside, they cannot collect their bodies.

Well, you don't care about tradition or history, and you don't have any ideas about self-realization and social contribution. But you have to pursue money and think about it.

Not to mention doubling the salary outside, it is easy to double it ten times. The harvest of one hunting of the top powerhouse is enough for you to work for a lifetime.

In such a big environment, people respect the strong, worship the strong, and aspire to become strong themselves. Every year, countless people embark on this path, longing for exciting and rewarding adventures, but there are also many People were injured and retired.

"This is the human society of this era, a cycle that constantly produces strong people and combat power. Although it is cruel, our peaceful daily life is indeed based on the death list one by one. More than half of the people who left the city did not die in the end." return"

It is precisely because of this that some behaviors are untouchable. If the man-made idol God of War can easily reap wealth, will young people still aspire to be strong, eager to become warriors who protect their families and the country?

Don’t say that young people can see clearly. If you really see clearly, you will be damned. The routines designed by those experts and scholars with high salaries are specifically aimed at human weaknesses and your so-called "common sense" and "online wind reviews".

Routine after another, how can you, a young man who has not experienced actual combat, see through it? If you really see through, shouldn’t those experts who take money be unemployed?
I have to admit that the specialization of soldiers and the comfortable life of civilians did cause a difference in "battlefield common sense", which gave some people the opportunity to play tricks. They took advantage of people's simple worship of the strong, which was originally Mainstream values ​​advocated at the official level.

You exaggerate the strength of your "star personnel" and earn a little extra income. I can bear it. This is the development of the times. In a sense, it is even the choice of the times. It is promoting new employment and economic development.

You interfere in the rookie competition for talent selection, and make your star shine even more. As long as you don’t shake your roots, large-scale fraud occurs. In terms of high taxes, it is actually barely acceptable. After all, there are newcomers every year, and they become talents Top) and a few more.

You use the influence of your own star to cash in the traffic and influence the development of the market. This is a bit over the line, you have started to have side effects now, I warn you, you have to be careful.

What you are interfering with is the most important military industry, and you are starting to play the game of bad money driving out good money. Hehe, let me check your background and see if you have elements from other cities/foreign races.

You are dissatisfied with the city's punishment, and start to use your traffic advantage to instigate some indescribable things Uh, have you chosen the cemetery yet?

The desire for money is endless, even without rising to the level of capital and production relations, how could a greedy businessman give up the opportunity to make easy money and make money without limits.

What?That will bring about the collapse of the entire social value and pursuit, and that has nothing to do with me, wouldn't it be fine if I change places.

Now Shiqian City is not peaceful and prosperous enough to play inward harvesting. If there is a large-scale decline in combat power, those foreign races who are eyeing the tiger will probably come immediately.

Most people don't see that far, they just vaguely feel that the situation is wrong, but if a qualified politician/city leader can't see far, it is either bad or stupid, which is not a good thing.

Therefore, when Zheng Li finished testing the upper echelons and determined that they should not stand with some people and that this city is still a city with a majority of people, Zheng Li acted as the sharp knife for the charge.

And then...suddenly, his Huo Huo Huo company also declared bankruptcy.

reason?Uh, it's nothing, it's just the inexplicable business relationship and contract loan issues that directly turned the bag company into a non-performing asset.

Inexplicably, there were hundreds of thousands of debts, and Zheng Li didn't bother to pursue it. He knew that it was useless to pursue it. I am afraid that he has become a public enemy and a traitor in the eyes of some people.

In this world, no one is smarter than anyone else, and no one can treat anyone as a fool. It is very difficult to be a prophet beforehand, but it is not so difficult for Zhuge Liang afterwards.

If a large amount of money is thrown away, how the Youmi Company and the Jinxing Palace ended will naturally be found out, and even the meeting between Zheng Li and Zhao Yu at a critical time cannot be hidden.

Undoubtedly, Zheng Li offended Shi Qiancheng's business circles, at least the part that engaged in the new entertainment industry.

Fight to the death with local snakes in other people's territory?Zheng Li wasn't that boring yet, he didn't even bother to find out who cheated him, it might be one or two companies, or it might be the consensus of many people.

"Uh, it seems that I won't be able to step into this field in the future. Tsk, the operating cost of the rabbit has not been recovered yet."

Zheng Li was a little heartbroken, and he had suffered a great loss, and from now on, Lan Mengqi would probably be rejected by the entire live broadcast industry, and could only focus on the traditional route.

In a sense, he has also completed a lineup, completely standing on which side of Shiqian City. Well, considering his background, it seems that it is not a choice. The former intelligence officer of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the former secretary of the district government Long, there is no second choice at all.

However, these days, he is a little inexplicably unhappy.

"Do you know the rules? I have already handed in the nomination certificate, and I still have losses. Don't you want to reward me with something real?"

Zheng Li didn't bother to dwell on the thoughts of the upper echelons, nor did he consider the finer faction issues (he was not qualified to be elected, someone else elected him), he just looked at the deficit and complained about the stinginess of the upper echelons.

But on the first day of the official competition, he actually received the above gift.

It was a big two-meter-square box, which weighed down the trailer very low, and looked a little heavy.

The first time he saw it, Zheng Li was ready to move, instinctively telling him that there was something he longed for inside.

"Divine material? Why are you so strict?"

As for the seal and text message above, Zheng Li was a little confused.

"Shipping paid in advance? What shipping, oh, that."

It was only then that Zheng Li remembered that Mayor Li Zhenjun said before that when he asked himself to go to the Digital City to participate in the finals, he would send something in a cart by the way. This must be the shipping fee.

It seems that the other party paid the shipping fee in advance, and it was used as a reward for this time.

"It's really heavy. According to the usual long-distance between big cities, if it's not the agreed specific freight, it's 3% of the total cargo. Is the item worth sending?"

After transporting the box back to the warehouse in the car, under layers of protection, Zheng Li opened the box.

With just one glance, Zheng Li was startled.

"The freight is 3% of the value of the goods, and the freight is so outrageous, the goods."

There are only two items placed in the box, one is the huge white bone I have seen. The bone of the time whale.

The other one, faintly resonating with the bones, is a huge jewel-like eyeball.

The Eye of the Time Whale and the Bone of the Time Whale? !Just shipping?
".Mayor, what do you want me to give? This is a task I can complete? This is not a reward! You want my life."
