Chapter 289 Are you kidding us?



Inside the Inner City General Building.

After listening to Secretary Cao's report, Liu Tianhu's face immediately lit up with a smug look.

"Little Cao, you did a good job! It seems you need to shoulder more responsibility. Be prepared. When the next inner city meeting is held, I will nominate you for a ministerial position within the inner city. I hope you are ready!"

Secretary Cao was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Brother Tiger, thank you so much! I will definitely do my best and live up to your expectations!"

Liu Tianhu nodded slightly, standing in front of the large French windows gazing into the distance, which was shrouded in a thin mist.

"Chen Kaiming, Lu Yuan, humph, I'll see how long you can hold out. Now there's no water, no electricity, and not even anyone left. Let's see what you have to fight me with. You dare to threaten me, humph!"

Since electricity and water supply were fully operational, Lu Yuan and the others discussed the matter and decided to start up all the equipment in the mine to test its reliability. They wanted to see if the geothermal power supply could operate efficiently for a long time under such high-power conditions.

A week passed quickly.

Despite operating at high load, the power equipment did not experience any power shortage; in fact, there was even surplus power available. With Lao Qin's help, the group discovered several usable geothermal sites near the lava river, and these locations were marked to prevent power shortages when expanding the scale in the future.

On this day, Manager Du, who was in charge of personnel recruitment, arrived at the mining area with more than ten people, looking very happy.

Although the group was particularly drawn to the high wages here, they had vaguely heard about the water and power outages in the mining area, which had caused quite a stir in both the inner and outer cities and was practically common knowledge.

However, when they arrived at the mining area, they found that there was no water or power outage. All kinds of machinery were running, and truckloads of ore were being transported to the sorting center. Several workers wearing radiation protection suits were sorting the ore.

The new workers were taken aback by what they saw and began to whisper among themselves.

"Hey, didn't they say there was a water and power outage here? And there was even a riot among the employees. This doesn't seem like the situation at all!"

"Yes, it's been more than twenty days already. Without water and electricity, these people shouldn't be able to live at all. With such high temperatures here, they basically can't survive for more than a few days without water. Do you mean they even have water?"

"It's probably just some false information spread by people in the inner city. That's all they do!"

“…”

The group stared at each other, looking around the mining area. They found that all the workers were in good condition and did not seem to be dehydrated at all. In fact, a truck that drove over from a cement building in the distance even had a water sprinkler on its back, cooling the ground nearby.

After handing the report to Lu Yuan's office, Supervisor Du returned and saw several people staring at each other as they looked around the mining area. A sense of pride rose in his heart.

"What are you doing? We're in the mining area. What did I just tell you? Don't look around or wander off!"

The group immediately looked away and then cautiously asked, "Manager Du, didn't you say that the water and electricity have been cut off here? I see that the power is still on, and there are even water trucks spraying water along the way. Aren't you afraid that the water will evaporate and produce toxic fumes?"

After hearing this, Supervisor Du sneered: "Hmm, you think you can stump us with such a trivial trick? That's impossible. We've already solved the water and electricity problems, so the things you were worried about on the way didn't happen at all!"

"What? It's already resolved? No way? How could they even solve the water and electricity problems in a place like this?"

"Yes, the electricity problem is fine, but what about the water problem?"

Several workers began to whisper among themselves again.

Supervisor Du waved his hand and said to everyone, "Alright, stop overthinking. Hurry up and come with me to see President Lu. He's waiting for you right now. By the way, did you bring all the tools I asked you to bring?"

Everyone nodded immediately, then took out their backpacks from behind them, revealing the various tools inside.

"Don't worry, Supervisor Du, we've brought everything you asked us to bring. But we're curious, why did you bring these shovels and stuff? Are these really suitable for the rocky terrain here?"

"Alright, that's not something you should be asking. You'll find out when we get there. Now, come with me!"

After saying that, Supervisor Du waved his hand and led everyone toward Lu Yuan's office.

When Supervisor Du returned to Lu Yuan's office, he gently knocked on the door.

"Old Du, come in!"

So Supervisor Du quickly nodded and led the group into the office.

Lu Yuan stood up from his seat and watched as a group of people entered and stood in front of the desk.

"President Lu, I have already taken care of everything you asked me to do. These people are all former farmers, and each of them has excellent skills. They are experts in all aspects, including growing melons and fruits and raising livestock!"

Lu Yuan nodded slightly and glanced around at the crowd.
