Chapter 526 Fear of Insufficient Firepower

Nan Haochen and Nangong Chen originally planned to leave the food court like this, since the security system had already been roughly checked and there were no major problems.

Moreover, most of the people in the food court are superhumans, so as long as they take action, the signal cover will definitely be safe.

However, Zhan Siyu still had a very ominous feeling, so he asked Nan Haochen and Nangong Chen to check the security system and the energy supply.

As it turned out, Zhan Siyu actually found the root of the problem.

"No way? After all, we bought the usage rights for this area. Why would the power company cut off the power for no reason?"

"This is completely against the rules! Those major families are using physical force against us, don't they have any shame?" Nan Haochen complained.

Zhan Siyu laughed helplessly. His brother-in-law was really naive, saying such things at a time like this.

Nan Xiangwan also covered her forehead; Nan Haochen's idea was far too naive.

"Haochen, if a real fight begins, forget about saving face, we're willing to risk our lives!"

“Once the life-or-death sniping begins, it’s impossible to stop. So for both sides, it’s definitely about holding all the chips in their own hands for safety!” Nan Xiangwan said.

Nan Haochen still frowned. Now that the problem had been raised, how should it be solved?

Nan Xiangwan and Zhan Siyu both felt that energy supply was a major problem, so they had to find a way to solve it.

Nangong Chen also lowered his head in deep thought. If the energy supply could not keep up, the construction of the food court would be forced to stop, the signal coverage would be damaged, and the security system would be completely destroyed.

They have no bargaining chips left, so Zhan Siyu absolutely cannot let this happen.

"No, that won't work. Not only can the signal coverage device not protect us, but if the food court runs out of energy, it will not only have to stop operating, but it might even have to close down!"

After recalling this matter, Nan Haochen also found it very troublesome.

The major families completely control all industries, including energy and material supplies, and everything is subject to their arrangements.

They have been victorious so far because all the industries they are involved in belong to Old Master Ye.

For their own benefit and to repay their kindness, the Ye family naturally provided various forms of assistance to Nan Xiangwan and Zhan Siyu in secret.

However, the Ye family cannot get involved in the areas of electricity and energy, or the supply of materials.

"In areas where the Ye family cannot get involved, then we will have to confront other families head-on!"

“The most crucial point is that the Xue family controls the power supply of the entire Rose Star, right? Now that we’ve fallen out with Xue Wanqing like this, and Xue Wanqing’s marriage to Fu Tingshen is almost finalized, things are really complicated!” Zhan Siyu said.

Fu Tingshen's family mainly deals in the manufacture and sale of nutritional supplements, which is related to the survival of the entire Rose Star, so they have great power.

It was precisely because the Nanxiangwan food street project threatened the interests of the nutritional supplement manufacturing company that they had been secretly targeting them.

The relationship between Fu Tingshen and Xue Wanqing is unusual, which also means that the relationship between the two families and aristocratic clans is unusual.

If they wanted to take action against the food court, they would definitely join forces with the company behind Xue Wanqing. The Xue family manages the energy supply, so cutting off their power would be just a matter of a word.

"We must be on guard against this!"

After figuring out the whole story, Nan Haochen gasped in shock.

They had never imagined such a crisis before, and now that it had suddenly appeared before them, all they were left with was fear and helplessness.

One crisis after another, it seems that the situation is already somewhat out of their control.

Seeing how worried Nan Haochen was, Nan Xiangwan couldn't help but smile.

"What's there to be afraid of? Don't we have a generator?"

"The spaceship was able to travel all the way from Blue Planet to Rose Planet. Have you forgotten where our energy comes from?" Nan Xiangwan asked.

This is indeed a very good approach, because they have various energy production equipment, and they certainly don't lack energy sources such as oil or electricity.

However, all the energy-generating equipment is on the spaceship, and it would be very troublesome to move it over.

“Yes, it’s time to make good use of these energy reserves…” Nangong Chen said.

Since the major families have already given them this test, they must respond accordingly.

Zhan Siyu laughed and said, "You two seem to be actually a little scared?"

This is actually not a difficult task, but Nangong Chen felt a little scared, which was really unnecessary.

"Brother Zhan, you can't blame us for this, can you? Who wouldn't be scared in this situation?"

"To be honest, I really don't know how to guard against this. In the current situation, several major families are all targeting us, and besides, they are local bullies!"

There's a saying on Planet Blue: "Even a mighty dragon can't suppress a local snake." They aren't a mighty dragon, but those major families are definitely local snakes.

If we were to become enemies with these powerful families, the consequences could be truly unimaginable.

"Yes, although we can counter their moves, the major families won't openly oppose us right now. They're just making moves in secret, and we're already almost overwhelmed!"

“If they openly attack us, it might mean they’ve reached a point of extreme anger and embarrassment, at which point they’ll probably resort to any means necessary!” Nan Haochen said.

Nan Xiangwan also breathed a sigh of relief; Nan Haochen and Nangong Chen's concerns were justified.

Although their worries are useless now and they can only take one step at a time, it is still necessary to be prepared for potential dangers even in times of peace.

"He who does not plan for the future will have trouble in the present"—this is indeed a truth!

"But it would be very foolish to ignore the present because of worrying about the future!" Nan Xiangwan said.

Nangong Chen nodded in agreement; they were simply taking things one step at a time for now.

“I really like what Miss Nan said: ‘No matter what difficulties and obstacles we face now, are they as difficult as they were in unfamiliar environments before?’” Nangong Chen said.

Seeing that Nangong Chen and Nan Haochen had recovered, Zhan Siyu smiled with relief.

“You’re right. If we keep worrying now, it won’t end well! We might as well think of a way to move the energy-generating equipment over here and prepare some backup energy for the food court!” Zhan Siyu said.

They must quickly build up a stockpile of energy to prepare for any potential crises to come.
