Jean Of Bright City 13 - Chapter 2164
At 8 o’clock in the evening, the square of the General Affairs Section was still crowded with people. At night, the number of people standing on the square increased significantly, doubling the number during the day. Many people were still demonstrating and shouting from time to time.
In the face of reporters’ interviews, more people said that they could not accept people from the barrier zone to enter the city, and some said that the Acting Section had violated the law.
A lot of voices gathered in just a few hours. Locke sat in the private lounge area, quietly watching the news reports, his brows frowned, he couldn’t bear it anymore, but now he still has to be patient. .
Some parliamentarians have already submitted some protest statements. Most of them are making a fuss about the entry of people from the barrier zone into the city. It is true that allowing these people to enter the city may violate the law, but the law is not clear. The expression of this.
This is why Locke does not want to respond positively. Although Michelle has already written a draft of the response and asked Le Xiao to reply, Locke immediately rejected the proposed answer after dinner. After all, once he answered, a lot of things will be changed. One after another.
This is currently the last thing Locke wants to see. These large and small businessmen are behind family members. Locke thought about it all day today and probably guessed something.
After a knock on the door, Michelle came in.
“Your Excellency, I think it’s better to respond.”
Locke shook his head and said.
“I thought of more things, Michelle, what is behind this, I think you should be aware of it.”
Michelle thought for a while and said.
“Commercialization of mechanical biochemical transformation technology.”
Locke smiled helplessly. The interest group has begun to enter the city to make a fuss about the people in the barrier area, and wants to let the Acting Department reach a consensus with them as in the past. This consensus is the biochemical mechanical transformation technology.
If the era of mechanization is really going to be implemented, now is the best time. If the gods are still dealing with things in the city, they will definitely be open, but it is different now.
“I won’t allow this to happen. We still have a chance. As long as the current problem is solved, we humans will be able to catch everything before the planet’s demise.”
Michelle didn’t answer. Locke said it was indeed a problem. Although many so-called human rights groups had criticized this technology before, these voices ceased after Le Xiao’s explanation that night.
Especially after the old people who had undergone biochemical machinery transformation yesterday returned to society normally, the argument in the city changed in just one day. The vast majority of people began to agree with this approach to transform the old people without labor. Not only can it save food and water resources in the city, but it can also increase the labor force in the city.
This is good for many people, but if this technology wants to develop quickly in the long term, it is best if it is directly used in business, and it can be developed in a short time.
But in this case, the city will definitely fall into a greater barrier again, and this time there is no chance for the city to be safe.
“Your Excellency, then I’ll go tell that girl and let her rest.”
Luo Jiahui gave a hum. He looked at the news reports on the light and shadow screens. Many media were hyping up the incident. It was obvious that this incident was good for the city and the barrier area, and it could fill the gaps that formed a little bit. But now there is such an abnormal voice, just because the capital wants to continue to make money.
Therefore, the capitals will actively gather together without the leadership of anyone, because the bottom layer is now a very good place to make money, and the bottom layer currently does not allow big capital to enter.
Including the investment and construction of waste treatment plants, the Congress takes up the bulk, and the rest is distributed to some small and medium-sized business people to invest. Many large capitals of the middle and upper classes are currently difficult to invest in the bottom layer, because The industries at the bottom are extremely scattered, and they are all small-scale individuals or a few people, and they are complicated.
The big capitals have no way to monopolize. This is what makes many middle and upper-class business people headaches, so they gathered together, hoping that Congress can give them a share.
Locke felt that this time he had to withstand all the pressure. After all, the most urgent thing for the middle and upper class merchants is to move to the ground floor. Once they settle in, the ground floor will undergo radical changes, and in the end all this will return. In the hands of these investors, the underlying reality has created value for these people several times.
This kind of thing has been staged in Bright City again and again, and this time Le Xiao has made a good start, so Locke will not let go of the capital anyway.
At this time, a phone call came from Wu Qun.
“Your Excellency, are you free?”
“You come straight up.”
A few minutes later, Wu Qun at the door of the room walked in with a smile, and Luo Jiahui walked over and closed the door.
“Speak directly, no polite remarks.”
“Why don’t you tell me your Excellency and Mr. Rockefbis.”
Luo Jiahui looked at Wu Qun’s appearance, his whole body was drunk, he probably knew what was going on.
“So do you think I should talk to him?”
Wu Qun smiled and shook his head.
“What do they think?”
Wu Qun sighed, and Locke took out the wine from the wine cabinet to pour a glass for Wu Qun.
“It’s really hard to handle this time.”
Wu Qun said that Locke probably guessed that the supply of materials is in urgent every day. Although many factories have been operating 24 hours a day, many consumables are still in short supply. There is only one possibility. They deliberately delayed the goods. Time of exit.
If you just need to postpone it every day, there will be a shortage of goods in the city, so now many goods can only passively increase prices, because the supply is in short supply.
Locke knew very well what the merchants meant.
“Are there anything else their request?”
“There is also hope to invest in waste treatment plants.”
Locke slapped an angry slap on the table. The businessmen still found the weak link in the city, and wanted to let the Acting Section take the initiative to negotiate with them. Once they negotiated, they could make terms.
Wu Qun smiled helplessly, took the initiative to unscrew the bottle, and poured two glasses of wine.
“Don’t get angry, let’s talk slowly, the guys outside are probably going to be gone in a while.”
After Luo Jiahui sat down and took a sip of the wine, Wu Qun closed his eyes and sighed helplessly.
The most terrible thing now is that the big capitals have gathered. If this goes on, the harm to the city is very great, because the purpose of capital is too clear. Now it is necessary to do something at the bottom. If this opportunity is missed, they will lose. In order to make a lot of opportunities in the bottom market.
“What did the others say.”
Wu Qun replied after pondering for a while.
“No way, now this matter is difficult to control, because the capital has already gathered.”
Locke took a long breath and walked to the window. After opening the window, a breeze poured in. He took a long breath, his heart was full of helplessness and sorrow, and the same thing was happening again.
And this kind of occurrence will plunge the city into a new round of storms, and once things like sound converge to a certain extent, they will have power.
Although many media in the city are still reporting on the situation at the bottom and the changes brought to the city by people in the barrier zone after entering the city, the concepts that have been ingrained over the years have made many people only have an impression when they mention the barrier zone. , Violence and crime.
Under this concept, coupled with the agitation of business people, the wind direction of the city has begun to change.
9 o’clock
Le Xiao yawned and looked at the manuscript in front of her. She already wanted to sleep. Just now Michelle told her that she didn’t need to read it any more because she didn’t need to respond.
Le Xiao watched many news reports, and only felt that the more she watched it, the more annoyed she became, because many people should really go to the bottom and go to the barrier area to take a good look. She didn’t know why so many people were vocalizing and wanted to prevent people from entering the barrier area. City.
Although Wu Lei has already said the reason, Le Xiao still feels that this is not the reason. The businessmen are justified in their interests. However, people in the barrier zone entering the city do not conflict with the interests of the businessmen, but can increase the profits of the businessmen.
“What’s wrong with this, I really don’t know what those people are thinking!”
This incident seemed strange to Le Xiao. Le Xiao had thought about the reasons behind it a lot, but he was puzzled. At this time, a phone call came over.
“Su Li, what’s the matter?”
“Are you free now? I asked you to come and pick you up. I want to talk to you.”
Le Xiao yawned, indeed a little sleepy.
“Well, what are you going to say, where are you?”
“I’m at Su’s house, you have to come here in person.”
Le Xiao uttered, and then went upstairs with a yawn, and she arrived on the rooftop. The Su family’s take-off and landing plane was already waiting. After Le Xiao got up, she closed her eyes and was really tired.
A few minutes later, Le Xiao came to the Su family, and soon came to the meeting room of the Su family. Seeing that the people of the Su family were there, Le Xiao was a little surprised. Su Li was sitting at the top of a long table. One chair was empty, and the people behind them bowed to Le Xiao when they went out. At this time, everyone in the Su family stood up and bowed to Le Xiao, and she waved their hands uncomfortably.
“What the **** is that you don’t need to be so polite?”
“I have a plan. I hope you can listen to it and make a decision tonight, otherwise the city will fall into a very embarrassing situation in the next few months.”
Le Xiao swallowed. What she fears most is to make decisions. If she is a little careless, it will be troublesome if something goes wrong.
Su Li looked at Le Xiao with a serious expression. After Le Xiao walked over and looked around at the chair, Su Li got up and pressed Le Xiao in the position of the patriarch.
“You have to talk to Locke, so that our Su family can inject capital to help him build the 119 and 120 districts, and it must be established in a short time.”
Le Xiao let out a cry.
“How can I talk about this…”
Le Xiao thought of Wu Lei’s warning that business people are now staring at the construction of the two districts. After all, once the two districts are established, piles of money can flow there, and the investment money can quickly pay back.
“That’s not great, and if the businessmen become the masters, they don’t want to add some miscellaneous things, which will interfere with Mr. Locke’s overall construction, besides…”
“You are also a businessman now, aren’t you!”
Le Xiao smiled awkwardly, glanced at the Su family around her, she felt a little uneasy in her heart.
“The businessmen in the city all want to get together to carry out various commercial activities at the bottom. Capital is completely out of control, so they can only build a place where capital can flow quickly.”
Le Xiao said, Su Li stood up and called up a light and shadow screen.
“Nowadays, many middle-to-upper-level businessmen and family members most want to invest in waste treatment plants and the construction of two areas, so we have to take down these two pieces from the Su family.”
Le Xiao swallowed again, wouldn’t this be equivalent to letting the Su family directly take down the bottom?
“If you think so, you are wrong. My uncle once told me something. Rather than fall into the hands of a profit-minded person, it is better to leave it to a kind person.”
Le Xiao pointed at herself suspiciously, and Su Li nodded.
“I just, I just want to make everyone’s lives better.”
Su Li hummed.
“So you have to hold everything in your hands. It is true that our Su family can make a lot of money, but everything is under your control. You can control the Su family’s capital not to get involved in other things, and not to benefit. Exploitation and squeeze everything, but what about them? Can they do this for you?”
Le Xiao glanced at the Su family again, and many of them nodded.
“You have to take on this important task to do Le Xiao, because it won’t work if it’s someone else, and it won’t work if it’s me. If I really intervene, I’m afraid I will only want to seek greater benefits for the Su family. What about you? Go to seek greater benefits for the bottom barrier area and the city, and do everything possible to allow our Su family to enter the bottom of the investment. The money earned by investing only needs to eliminate the investment cost and You can use a portion of the profit, and all the rest of the money you earn, for whatever you want.”
With a buzz in Le Xiao’s head, feeling a little excited, Su Li walked over and grabbed her ears.
“Buy a house, buy luxury goods?”
Le Xiao hurriedly denied, but still blushed and looked a little embarrassed. Many people in the Su family laughed, and Su Li laughed even more.
“You can buy as much as you want, but the most important thing is the lack of money for the construction of agricultural bases in the barrier area. You must have a clear understanding of this. Although our Su family can invest, such investment is too risky, so you We have to think of a way to transfer our Su family’s money and zero-risk investment to the construction of agricultural bases in barrier areas.”
Le Xiao seemed to understand something and scratched his head.
“What you mean is to let the Su family get a lot of commercial rights at the bottom, and then make money from the people in the city. After the Su family gets a part of the money, all the other money earned can be invested in the agricultural base in the barrier area. under construction?”
Su Li nodded, and Le Xiao laughed excitedly. This is indeed a good way.
“After all, the Angus family has to maintain the city’s huge subway system, water and electricity system, and the money their family can spend is only part of it. It is not enough for the construction of agricultural bases. So our Su family must be moved. Don’t let this bill fail.”
