He looked at Xiao Sheng expressionlessly. Outsiders could tell at a glance that he was angry. Anyone with good sense would have apologized proactively, but unfortunately Xiao Sheng had no awareness of this at all.
"Ah Sheng, if you are dissatisfied with me, just tell me directly."
"There's no need to joke about national affairs."
Xiao Sheng was finally willing to look at him, "Who am I kidding? The drill was completed perfectly, except for a little accident caused by Mayor Bai, your slippery leader."
"Mayor Bai, you are very self-aware, so you quickly got up and didn't cause any casualties, which would affect this perfect exercise and prevent the enemy from using the sacrifice of one of our people to make fun of us and discredit us."
Bai Ming pursed his lips tightly, he was really angry this time.
"Xiao Sheng!"
He shouted seriously.
Xiao Sheng laughed sarcastically, "Why? Mayor Bai, what I said is not the truth?"
"You said these unpleasant words, I just thought you were still angry, so I won't bother with you." Bai Ming suppressed his anger and looked at General Huo with a righteous look, "General Huo, I don't blame Ah Sheng for this."
"Don't blame me? What qualifications do you have to say you don't blame me? You want to put all the blame on me with just one sentence?"
Commander Huo listened to the two men talking back and forth.
No one is willing to give in to anyone else.
There was a flash of something in his eyes.
It was only when the two were about to fight that he spoke up to stop them.
"Alright, don't bring your own conflicts to the army." Commander Huo raised his hand and looked at Bai Ming again, "Mayor Bai, since your work has been completed, then leave here. I won't see you off."
Bai Ming realized that Commander Huo would not punish Xiao Sheng for falling into the sea.
He was angry and holding it in.
Before leaving, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Commander Huo, I will obey your orders, but Ah Sheng is young and hot-tempered. This time he used the warship to do this to me. If there are other enemies in the future, and he acts impulsively on the battlefield, who knows what the consequences will be."
"I'm just a nobody, I don't care."
"I just don't know if the people in the city behind me will be sad if they know that I have been wronged here and that we have worked hard to build steel but have not received a good response."
Commander Huo's expression changed instantly.
But he didn't break up with Bai Ming.
"Mayor Bai, we are all doing this for the country, so don't take it to heart." Commander Huo patted him heavily on the shoulder and hinted.
Bai Ming just smiled, turned around and left.
After everyone left and the office door closed, Commander Huo glared at Xiao Sheng unhappily, "What's wrong with you? Now you've offended Bai Ming. If he gets stuck on the materials, where will we get the ships?"
Each province is independent and officials in each province are working hard for the development of their own province, so there is no end to the amount of wrangling that occurs.
It’s not that they really won’t give it, but they will negotiate with each other on price, quantity, and various other resource exchanges.
Xiao Sheng still had that serious face, "Captain, do you think Bai Ming really did this because of me?"
"Even without me, he would still scheme against others and bring up this excuse."
"But his city is busy planning the railway line, why is he not in a hurry for that matter, but instead comes to participate in the drill and discuss the materials."
"The railway line is more important than the material."
Commander Huo glared at him. "But now the matter has fallen on you. He used you as an excuse to re-plan the materials out of the province. Others don't care whether you are innocent or not."
"Besides, are you sure you are innocent?"
"Rather than letting him use an ordinary soldier to achieve his goal, I would rather let him use me." Xiao Sheng looked at him steadily without any regrets, "Our fight will not implicate the future of innocent people."
"At most, I made him lose face this time, which gave him something to laugh at. He used me to raise the price of materials, but this excuse is only valid once at most."
Commander Huo didn't know what to say about him.
