This Game Is Too Realistic
Chapter 809 Good People Don't Live Long In Troubled Times
As Miss Bella said, the situation in Mammoth City is completely different from the concession of the Silvermoon Sect believers, and it can even be said that they are two distinct worlds.
The latter has beautiful marble buildings and clean and tidy streets, and most of the pedestrians passing through the streets are well-dressed, almost no different from the Silver Moon Bay next door.
However, the former is a mess all over the place, not to mention stone buildings, there is not even anything that can be called a street.
Most of the dirt roads were made by people's footprints, and only two open drainage ditches were dug along the roadside.
On both sides of the road, there are temporary shacks built with wood and branches or plastic boards.
The locals call it a row house, and two or three families can often be crammed into a row house, so crowded that there is no place to step down, but they still have to be squeezed in.
After all, many families here are the same as the slums in the Nihak period in Jingalang Port. The family can't make up two clothes, so they can't stand naked on the street.
As for the privacy of the several families, they can only make do with a partition in the row house.
Besides, there were hardly any young men to be seen here.
Local young and middle-aged people either went to serve as soldiers, or went to nearby factories or concessions to help, or got on a labor export ship and went to the North Island, which was being rebuilt.
As for the old and weak women and children who stayed behind, those who had clothes sat at the door to work, and those who had no clothes sat at home in a daze, waiting for the porridge relief point to serve meals.
In terms of suffering, the people here are indeed suffering, but the authorities did not allow them to eat dirt, and distributed some of the little food left over to them.
After all, the authorities still need their men to work hard.
Sis didn't go in to take a look, because the size of the meat was really inconvenient, and he was afraid of scaring the people here, so he just took a look at the endless slums from a distance.
Rows of wooden boards are propped up next to the relief point, with some scribbled slogans on them, such as every family gives out one person, and every family is full.
...This is treating people like goods. Rourou's heart was faintly touched, and he couldn't help muttering.
She is a straightforward person, she always says what she has, and she doesn't hide it in her heart.
Just now she thought that Lacy might be a good person, but now she felt that he was not a good person.
Sisi thought for a while and said.
... From livestock to goods, it is difficult to judge whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, but in the end they have something to eat.
Bella didn't seem to want them to stay here any longer. No one likes to have their scars uncovered, so she said hastily.
There is no road ahead, let me take you to other places to see.
Sis nodded.
Well, sorry to trouble you.
The group returned to the main road and walked towards an industrial area near the sea.
This is probably one of the smoothest places in Mammoth City where the reconstruction work has started except for the leased parish.
Especially in the factory of Lister Group and its surrounding area, there are almost no traces of damage.
The tall factory building is located on a higher terrain near the sea in Mammoth City. A spacious cement road is closely connected to the port area, and there is also a railway transportation line that has been opened to traffic.
Large and small processing factories and workshops surround the central factory building, extending along the only road towards the railway station.
Most of these are Liszt's industries, but some of them are also made by the locals themselves, especially hardware appliances, mechanical repairs, and even munitions production.
Tail and Rourou were even surprised to find that there was a scrapped Conqueror No. 10 tank parked here!
My giao! Legion's tank!
Good guy... is this captured?
Looking at the yelling Tail and Flesh, Sisi said in thought.
Ninety percent of them were captured. The Legion is not going to sell arms here...I guess the government's foreign exchange reserves don't have many dinars. This thing is not cheap.
The structure of the entire tank body is basically intact, but two tracks are broken.
Obviously, the tank was broken on the front line. The crew of the Empire abandoned the vehicle and fled, and then was dragged back from the front line by the guerrillas.
Two repairmen wearing exoskeletons were surrounding the tank, and an officer with a high rank was standing next to them, as if they were thinking about how to repair this thing together.
Although the layout of this area is somewhat sloppy, it already has the prototype of some industrial areas.
And on the outskirts of the industrial area, there are rows of corn buildings full of alliance flavor.
These houses made of concrete prefabricated panels can be regarded as the most luxury buildings in this area.
What impresses the locals is not only the strong roof, but also the extravagant supporting facilities.
In addition to the well-polished concrete roads, every few buildings above are also equipped with boiler rooms, collective bathrooms, public canteens, and literacy schools that teach children during the day and adults at night.
The configuration here is completely copied from the dormitory building in the Boulder City Industrial Zone, and some improvements have been made on the basis of the original ones.
For example, the winter in Mammoth State is not as cold as in the Valley Province, and the weather in December requires only a coat, so the dormitory building does not have radiators, and the boiler room only heats bath water.
The workers who live here are the upstarts of Mammoth City.
Being able to find a job in the Lister factory, even if it was just cutting vegetables in the staff cafeteria, or working as a sorter on the assembly line, could be regarded as a decent person in the entire Mammoth City.
Although the authorities have also spent money to build a number of affordable housing in the city, the supporting facilities are still much worse than the staff dormitories of the Lister factory.
It is no exaggeration to say that these workers live in a better place than the officers of the Resistance Army, let alone compared with the vast majority of civilians in the city who still live in row houses and eat relief porridge.
I'm afraid Liszt himself didn't expect that he, who was regarded as a scourge by the workers' association in the league, turned out to be a great benevolent person in the eyes of the locals here.
The locals praised him without hesitation, and it was even rumored that if anyone's family could have a worker who went to work in the Liszt factory, it would be a smoke from the ancestors!
It is precisely because of this that when Bella came here with a group of tails and introduced the situation here, the envy between her brows could not be hidden.
...This entire factory area is Mr. Liszt's factory, and a total of more than 10,000 people work for him directly or indirectly. He introduced steel, aluminum, and solid-state hydrogen battery production lines to our settlements, but currently The only products available here are hydrogen injectors, high-pressure storage tanks, and fuel electrodes.
Sisi glanced at the majestic factory building and said with emotion.
You don't have any industrial facilities here, and it's already pretty good to be able to produce these.
Recently, the alliance's electrification process has advanced from household appliances such as TVs, refrigerators, and air conditioners to the private car industry. The South China Sea Alliance plans to rebuild large-scale ocean current power stations, and there is extremely strong demand for both small and large energy storage equipment.
The hydrogen ejector, the high-pressure storage tank, and the fuel electrode are all key components of solid-state hydrogen batteries, and the latter has a market both in the Alliance and the South China Sea Alliance.
In particular, the Liszt Group itself operates industries such as exoskeletons and new energy vehicles. As long as the products produced meet the quality standards, there is no need to worry about not being sold.
It can be seen that Liszt is really optimistic about this market, otherwise he would not produce such a key thing here.
Indeed, the foundation here is too bad. Thanks to the help of that gentleman, we can get to where we are today, Bella nodded, with obvious gratitude in her eyes, and continued, Before he came here , There is not a single factory in the entire Mammoth City. Now we not only have coal power stations, railways, roads, steel and aluminum factories, but also process some export products.”
I heard that the monthly output value of this factory has reached 10 million silver coins, and the production capacity is still growing!
Following this trend, it may grow to 30 million next year, which is 300 million in our own currency! Mammoth State can rely on it to get rid of poverty and become rich!
Seeing the radiant girl, Sisi couldn't help smiling.
Don't underestimate yourselves too much. The most we can do is to bring some kindling, and it is ultimately up to you to start the fire. If one day you succeed in becoming rich, it will not only be because of our help, but also Most of it is your own hard work.
In this process, the alliance is of course also profitable. After all, prosperity is something that will promote each other.
For example, the Alliance and the South China Sea Alliance.
Before entering the Baiyue province, the alliance's beetle-style engineering armor could only do onshore projects, but after absorbing the submarine construction technology in the southern sea area and contracting the submarine freshwater pipeline project, it immediately evolved into the Crab type, king crab and a series of models.
Nowadays, whether it is the coast of the Baiyue Strait or the islands in the southern waters, the development is like a rocket.
Not to mention the earlier Luoxia Province, the alliance's fertilizers, seeds, and agricultural machinery have more than doubled the food production there. Not only did the residents of the Luoxia Province live a better life, but the residents of the River Valley Province also had a full meal.
If the Mammoth State and even the entire Borneo Province joins the camp of the civilized world like King Gallon Port, it will be of great benefit to the locals and the Alliance itself.
If all survivors of the wasteland unite, this era of suffering and death in the wasteland will surely come to an end.
Hope that day is not too far away...
...
For a whole day, Sisi and Tail and his team were investigating near the industrial area of Mammoth Continent.
Generally speaking, this is a thriving market, and many factories have the potential to grow bigger, but they lack technology and capital, and the latter happens to be what the alliance lacks most.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if you buy a few pieces of land here and develop it into real estate and wait for the appreciation, you will definitely not lose money.
Everyone wandered around until the sun went down before returning to the hotel in the parish.
This trip can be described as fruitful.
The only regret is that Tail and Rourou didn't see the mammoth they were thinking about until the end...
The night was getting darker, and only the parish was left on the entire coastline with lights on.
And one of these lights belongs to the office of the General Administration of Customs.
Although it was time to get off work, Aki did not leave here, but paced back and forth in front of the desk.
After waiting for a long time, he finally waited for the phone on the table to ring, hurriedly walked over to grab the receiver, and before waiting for the other person to speak, he asked in a hurry.
How is the situation? Are the distinguished guests from the alliance still satisfied?
All day today, he has been thinking about this matter, afraid that something may go wrong.
There was an answering voice on the other end of the phone, and Bella, who was standing in the phone booth at the post office, reported meticulously.
...Generally speaking, they are quite satisfied. Their evaluation of us is more than neutral, and they are also very interested in the local development potential. According to the lady named Sisi, they plan to invest in opening a branch here, Help us complete financial reform.
When Yaxi heard this, an ecstatic expression appeared on his face, and he clenched his fists excitedly.
Very good!
Although the influence of the White Bear Knights is far less than that of Baiyue Company, it can be regarded as a large-scale bank.
It started in the Petra Fortress during the Luoxia Provincial War, and later established itself in Silver Moon Bay. It developed overseas along the alliance's trade routes. Its business scope covers the coast of the Borneo Sea and even the southern waters, and it has incubated many potential companies. and business groups.
If the White Bear Knights Bank can be attracted here, it will be no less meaningful than successfully attracting investment from a Lister Group!
Listening to the surprise sound from the other end of the phone, Bella was silent for a while and continued to report.
In addition, there is one more thing. Although I persuaded them not to leave the parish as much as possible, they still went to the nearby urban areas. I couldn't refuse, so I had to take them to visit the industrial area and nearby residential areas... But the people on the road At that time, let them see the situation in the slums.
The slums of Mammoth City were like an ugly sore, and it was impossible for anyone to feel any favor with the authorities after seeing it.
Although the authorities have also made some efforts, it is not a problem that can be solved in a short time.
Hearing that the distinguished guests of the alliance had gone there, Yaxi suddenly became nervous and asked cautiously.
Did they say anything?
Bella carefully recalled the previous events, then shook her head and said.
That's not true.
In fact, it can't be said that there was nothing at all, but they were speaking in a language she didn't understand, so she didn't understand what they were saying.
Aki, who was standing at the desk, fell silent, and finally let out a long sigh.
...I can only hope that they can understand our difficulties.
He could feel that the purpose of these distinguished guests coming to Mammoth City was not just for a simple business inspection, but they might also have tasks assigned by the alliance managers, such as researching whether the Mammoth State authorities were worthy of the alliance's investment.
Although it is difficult to say it, the support of the alliance is really important to them.
He really hoped that they would give a letter, even if it was a negative evaluation, he could explain it first, and secondly, he could refer to the opinions to make changes.
Not a word, which made him most disturbed.
Is there anything they are dissatisfied with? For example, something to complain about... No matter what it is, tell me all!
Bella froze, hesitated for a moment, and then said in an uncertain tone.
Uh... the lady named Tail seems to be sorry that she didn't see the mammoth, it seems that's all there is to it.
By the way, is this a complaint?
Just when she was confused, Aki slapped the desk hard.
Quick! Contact the Mammoth City Militia immediately and ask them to go to the north bank of the Tasang River to catch one—no, catch two and give them back! One male and one female!
Hearing this unreasonable order, Bella was stunned, her mouth froze in place.
Send, send two mammoths?
Does this guy know how big that thing is?
But Aki didn't take it seriously, and said plausibly.
This is a necessary investment! It is also for the future of Mammoth City! Do as I say, and you must not let the distinguished guests of the alliance leave regrets!
Seeing that this guy wasn't joking, Bella could only restrain her bewildered expression, cheered up and said.
yes!
...
At the same time, on the border of the Mammoth State, in the military tent of the Imperial Gray Wolf Army.
General Aryan, who was the commander-in-chief of the Gray Wolf Army, was looking at the list sent by the logistics officer, and his two bushy eyebrows gradually twisted into two clusters of centipedes.
The logistics officer standing in front of him didn't dare to take a breath, so he could only stand there tremblingly.
However, what should come will come after all.
A sharp gaze shot at him, and Arayan slapped the list in his hand on the command table, staring at the logistics officer aggressively.
What about the tank? Why hasn't the No. 10 Conqueror tank I want been delivered yet? Why are all the logistical supplies that have arrived are light weapons and dry food!
Hearing the words, the logistics officer complained incessantly, and quickly explained with a bitter face.
My lord, you don't know something... Recently, the alliance and the legion suddenly had a dispute, and the alliance withheld the munitions that it had promised to help the legion send to the Falcon Kingdom.
Araiyan was dumbfounded when he heard the words, and opened his mouth for a long while.
The legion's weapons...was confiscated by the alliance?
The amount of information in these words is too large, and he didn't understand it for a while.
Why did the weapons of this legion go to the alliance? And it has to be delivered to him through the alliance.
The problem caused by the information blockage is dealing with this. He, who is on the front line, does not know what agreement the Empire and the Legion have reached, nor what the Legion and the Alliance quarreled at the Viscosity Conference.
There was a faint feeling in his heart that he was caught between two fists like a chess piece.
Not even him, but Lassi who was standing across from him.
From an unresolved outcome, they were drawn into a new game.
His intuition told him that this war might not end so easily...
The logistics officer sighed and said helplessly.
That's all I know... Not to mention you, His Majesty is also very anxious now, but we just can't rush this matter. According to what the Legion said, if the Alliance knows that the arms have been transported in a large circle This is where things get complicated.
In fact, he didn't need to be so polite with this Alyan. If it was the past, the latter should have raised his breath and said good things.
However, helplessly, the local forces are becoming more and more disobedient, and the only thing Tiandu can rely on is the Central Army, which is suppressing bandits on the border.
Now Alayan is in full swing in Xilan's court, whether it is the emperor or the dukes and marquises, they all regard him as a life-saving straw.
Looking at the helpless logistics officer, Alayan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
Then what should we do now? Those rebels took the alliance's equipment and repaired the defense line like an iron barrel. Without the support of heavy equipment, we can't fight it! Even if we attack by force, we will just let the soldiers die in vain!
The logistics officer's eyes faltered for a while, and he faltered for a while and said.
It's really impossible... It's not impossible to slow down the offensive on the front line. The news from the legion is that they will find a way to solve the problem, so let's stay safe.
If the alliance can't find the evidence they are looking for, they can only fulfill the contract and release the seized arms.
And even if they found the evidence, it would be impossible to confiscate the ammunition. At most, they would send it back to the wasteland of Weifu and let the legion handle it by themselves.
It's not that the legion doesn't have ships, and the equipment will still be delivered here sooner or later, but it will take a while... At least that's what the Weilante people told them.
Slow down... Alayan sneered, If you slow down, the rebel railway will reach the front line!
I don't know where those poor ghosts got so much steel and cement.
The spies he sent into Mammoth City to inquire about information have not found out what happened so far, but they only heard that some of the ships transporting building materials came from King Gallon Port, and some came from the southern waters.
If it doesn't work...it can be done like this, the logistics officer gritted his teeth, and finally took out the last card, Before leaving, His Majesty told me that if the battle situation is really difficult, the general can be in Mazhou, Bird State The area recruits troops by itself.
Araiyan narrowed his eyes when he heard the words, and stared at the logistics officer firmly.
Is this really what His Majesty said?
Being stared at by that stare, the logistics officer said tremblingly.
Indeed! How dare I fool you in such a matter?
Aryan stared at him blankly.
Are there any relevant documents?
The logistics officer shook his head quickly.
No... His Majesty just instructed me verbally.
Aryan stared at him meaningfully, and then glanced at the list in his hand.
No wonder so many rifles were sent here, so that's what it meant...
I see, you go down.
Yes, my lord! The logistics officer finally breathed a sigh of relief, and left respectfully.
Watching the logistics officer leave, the staff officer Gopal, who had been silent all this time, looked at Aryan.
Isn't it a good thing that His Majesty allows you to recruit troops locally? Why is the general so sad?
Good thing?
There was a trace of complicated emotions in Alayan's eyes, and he said lightly after a while.
Can't you see... When this battle is over, we will be abandoned.
There is no document, only a verbal will, and it will only be a matter of one sentence if your Majesty recognizes it or not.
It's fine if you admit it.
If you don't recognize it, even if you put it in a small way, it will drive the people to the front line as cannon fodder.
And if His Majesty wants to get to the bottom of it, it will be a death penalty for treason.
Maybe it will hurt the family.
Seeing the concern in Arayan's eyes, Gopal just smiled lightly.
Whether it is abandoned or not, the soldiers are in our hands.
Arayan narrowed his eyes, looking at Gopal with a hint of danger.
What do you want to do?
Gopal continued without changing his expression.
The wolf people will not follow you. After all, their relatives are in the wolf state, but the horse people and the bird people are not necessarily. In my opinion, you should not only obey the order, but also strictly obey the order, but you should not combine those horse people and the bird people. Bird people are used as cannon fodder, but in turn cultivate direct descendants who are truly loyal to themselves—”
Enough! Don't say that anymore! Alayan yelled angrily, interrupting his words.
Gopal, who was interrupted, was not angry, but just nodded respectfully.
I'm just giving you a suggestion...
The empire is going to be in chaos, and good people don't live long in troubled times.
After finishing speaking, he left Alyan with an uncertain face, turned around and left the military tent alone.
Just as the gray wolves of the empire stagnated due to lack of support from heavy equipment, the Moon Clan resistance army was busy sending people across the river overnight to catch the mammoth.
Obviously, every family has hard-to-recite scriptures, and the authorities of Mammoth State, which is beautiful on the surface, are having a hard time.
At the same time, new changes are brewing in the wasteland.
As soon as the morning sun rose from the sea level in the southern waters the next day, the submerged mother Conch of the Alliance surfaced in the waters near Coral City.
At this time, a small transport plane from Ideal City flew in from afar and landed slowly on the tarmac on the deck of the Conch.
It was a model that Chu Guang had never seen before, and it looked a bit like the Viper of the Alliance. Presumably it was a new gadget made by the company, and maybe it was copied from the Alliance.
But in fact, it doesn't matter, Chu Guang sees it very openly.
After all, the alliance did not lose the company's wool. The engine of the Overlord transport plane was simply fished from the Orca transport plane.
And what makes Chu Guang quite gratified is that the dead houses in Ideal City have finally opened up recently.
The board of directors of the enterprise probably finally realized that they are also a part of the wasteland. There are really lunatics who made things big and finally they have to come forward to clean up the mess.
Such is the trouble with the Church of the Torch.
If they had intervened in the crisis in Singularity City early, things would have gone far beyond the situation that later got out of control.
Based on the reflection on their own problems, they have become more and more active in participating in the affairs of the wasteland recently, and various long-range and ultra-high-speed aircraft have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.
Soon, a middle-aged man in formal attire came out from the hatch.
With a sunny smile on his face, he stretched out his right hand towards Chu Guang who was standing by the tarmac from a long distance away.
Dear Mr. Manager, I'm glad we meet again!
