Lei Xing frowned after hearing this: "Who I went into the city with, does it have anything to do with you?"
This woman has been very annoying for the past year. I don’t know what’s wrong with her. Although she no longer bothers Bao Tu behind his back, she now only bothers him.
Chu Ming was used to his tone and was not angry: "Can't I show some concern as a friend?"
Lei Xing was impatient.
What friends? Lei Xing doesn't like making annoying friends.
"Are you okay? If you're just asking about this, I'm sorry, but I can't tell you anything!"
"you--"
Lei Xing hung up the phone and continued the previous topic with Xu Chang. His attitude was completely different from the previous call:
"So you don't mind if I give that thing away?"
Xu Chang guessed who he was going to give it to and waved his hand: "If I give it to you, it's yours. You can give it to whoever you want."
Lei Xing was overjoyed.
The reward for this mission not only includes crystal cores and federal coins, but Minister Xu also gave him a special gift - a mobile camp for individual combat.
It is a new garrison supply developed by Changjing. From the outside, it looks like a black box the size of a basketball. After pressing the switch, it can be transformed into a space of four square meters on the spot. The exterior structure is sturdy and is windproof, rainproof and bulletproof.
Anti-strike tests have proven that the blood sickle's giant limbs cannot penetrate it.
If you need to camp during a march, you don’t even need to set up a tent. You can just press a switch and move into a small single room. It is very safe.
In addition, it can be combined with multiple units to form a larger space.
If Lei Xing could only get one from Minister Xu, he really wanted to give Su Tao four at once, and use the entire large room for rest on the road, which would be safer than her RV.
Thinking of this, he said to Minister Xu: "If you can buy it again in the future, please give me a call!"
It is now only supplied to the internal military district of Changjing, and outsiders cannot buy it.
Minister Xu glanced at him:
"You'd better give up on this idea. This thing can't be sold to the public. I think the RV is quite comfortable to sit in. Why don't you give her something else instead?"
Lei Xing remained silent.
Comfort is not as important as safety. Su Tao will like this gift.
Lei Xing went through the various procedures for entering the city with great anticipation.
Su Tao and others followed suit and handled the matter one by one.
The clerks did not dare to neglect the leaders from Changjing, and were extremely efficient in handling the procedures. After waiting for less than ten minutes, a group of people entered the city in a mighty manner.
Su Tao only took a quick glance at the outer city of Xindu and realized the gap between Dongyang and Xindu.
Even the outer city of Xindu is paved with smooth concrete, and the roads are clean and wide, welcoming passing vehicles.
There are even simple greenings on both sides of the road. Although it is not as good as Wu Zhen's work, it looks very close to the greening before the end of the world.
Moreover, the houses around here look neat and uniform, unlike the houses in Dongyang which are crowded together with the wall tiles falling all over the place.
If the outer city is like this, the inner city will only be better.
Su Tao has lived in Dongyang for eighteen years and still has strong feelings for it. Seeing such a well-built new capital, she feels uncomfortable and doesn't want to admit Dongyang's backwardness.
She didn't understand why there was such a big gap between Dongyang and Xindu after the old leader worked hard for Dongyang for twenty years?
What went wrong?
The expression on her face caught Shi Zijin's eyes without a single detail missing.
Shi Zijin patted her shoulder and said, "It's a bit strange why Dongyang can't develop like this, right?"
Su Tao nodded.
Shi Zijin didn't intend to hide it from her. It was an open secret and she would know it sooner or later.
"Do you know why some people call us the Turks? It's because the old commander was alone and insisted on coming to Dongyang. Changjing didn't assign him any personnel. We were organized later. People like us are not graduates of regular military academies."
Shi Zijin said this with some self-mockery.
"Why?" Su Tao was surprised.
"Not long after the first apocalypse, the supreme leader passed away, and internal strife broke out in Changjing, forcing the old leader to take sides. One of the factions included a former comrade of the old leader, with whom he had a close relationship and a sworn brotherhood. The old leader refused, leaving his mess behind and determined to go to Dongyang, thus causing a falling out with his comrades."
"In the end, his old leader got his wish and went to Dongyang, saving most of Dongyang's land and people. Changjing also ended its internal strife, but the person who took the position was his former friend."
Su Tao didn't expect that there was such a background.
So he blamed the old leader for not siding with him and helping him.
No wonder Dongyang’s resources have always been poor and there has been a lot of ridicule.
The old leader has always been taking a long-term approach, investing all the funds in education and medical care, and infrastructure and the like have had to be put on hold.
Su Tao now feels familiar when she thinks of the small shabby house in Dongyang.
It’s okay, she’s still here!
She may not be good at other things, but she can build a house!
Shi Zijin saw that she suddenly became more motivated, so he stopped talking.
In fact, the old leader had already hinted that he wanted to gradually transfer all of Dongyang to Su Tao's management. He was just short of saying openly that Su Tao would be the next leader of Dongyang.
There are also benefits in telling her these things earlier.
After Minister Xu Chang entered the city, someone came to take him to the guesthouse, so he had to say goodbye to Su Tao:
"Thank you for your care on the way. If you need anything later, you can come to the guesthouse to find me."
Lei Xing was quite surprised. Minister Xu had a good impression of Su Tao and took the initiative to tell him to come to him if he needed help.
Minister Xu still has a high status in Xindu because he is equivalent to an evaluator sent by Changjing.
The development of this base, its performance, its potential, etc. must all be evaluated by Minister Xu and reported to his superiors.
In this case, Xindu must treat him as an ancestor and worship him well.
Su Tao didn't know Minister Xu's specific position at all. She thought Xu Chang was just being polite, so she didn't take it to heart. She nodded, showing a row of small white teeth:
"Uncle Xu, if you're not used to staying at the guesthouse, you can come and see us."
She meant what she said.
Once she finds a place to stay in Xindu, she will definitely renovate it to make it more comfortable.
She was very confident about this. No matter how good the guesthouse in Xindu was, it had a system that provided all kinds of furniture and appliances.
But when the receptionist heard this, it was taken as a joke.
A bunch of country bumpkins from Dongyang probably don’t know the rules of the Xindu Hotel. Could they possibly wrong Minister Xu?
Even Xu Chang responded with a smile and said to Lei Xingdao:
"You don't have to follow me, just go do what you need to do."
He had already noticed that Lei Xing was getting impatient, and he probably couldn't wait to give the gift to the girl.
He is half an old man, so he won't get in the way of the young people.
