In what way?
Could it be...
"The waste from the conveyor is liquid. If it drips down, it could contaminate the soil," Xu Ying explained. "In short, it's certainly possible."
There is basically no wind in the underground base, and the air flows slowly. Liquids dropped from high altitudes will not be blown away, and it is possible that they will drip right below.
"I understand." Wei Shishi's face was a little solemn. "It seems that the mining above will start immediately. But... I can't help much.
.
"Why?" Xu Ying looked at her.
"Our Wei family is not responsible for mining the ore. The Yuan family is responsible for resource mining."
The Yuan family, another of the three families, is mainly responsible for the mining, storage and utilization of various resources, and is responsible for managing the economy of the entire human settlement.
Simply put, it is a family that controls resources and the economy.
It has also been passed down for thousands of years.
Although Xu Xin shuffled the cards several times during this period.
"The Yuan family..." Xu Ying hesitated, "Should I go look for them?"
"Grandpa should be talking to the head of the Yuan family now." Wei Shishi looked towards the city, at the three tallest buildings.
"The Yuan family is different from our Wei family. We feel that tall buildings are too conspicuous and easy to destroy. If something goes wrong, we will put ourselves in danger. Therefore, our building is basically just used as a special observation tower. After all, the height is there."
"But most of the Yuan family live directly in their high-rise building, and their head of the family lives on the top three floors, overlooking the entire city at any time. Grandpa might be in their high-rise building right now."
Li Wenxi said with a little concern: "If there is any problem with the Yuan family, won't your old man be in danger?"
"Don't worry about that." Wei Shishi shook her head. "It's impossible for the three of us to take action against each other. With my grandfather personally taking action, we should be able to start work today. When the time comes, you can all work together..."
At this time, Wei Shishi's expression changed slightly and she clicked the earphones in her ears.
It was the same one she had given to Li Wenxi before.
"Grandpa, on your side... what? They don't agree? Why?"
"Okay, I understand."
Wei Shishi tapped her earphones again, then frowned, "The conversation...failed."
Xu Ying looked at the building in the distance: "No mining?"
"Yes." Wei Shishi nodded. "They said that mining the dome could cause a large-scale collapse. Their technology isn't yet sufficient for safe mining, and it could pose a threat to the city's safety. So they rejected Grandpa's proposal."
"This reason is really...irrefutable." Xu Ying felt helpless.
Indeed, if the sky really fell, many people would probably die.
Li Wenxi looked up at the dome again: "There's something I don't know if it's just my imagination."
"What?" Both women turned to look at her.
"Hmm... When I first saw the mining area above, I had a feeling that it was half-mined."
Li Wenxi's words surprised both women.
"...If it weren't for the alien invaders mining it themselves, the only family capable of mining underground would be the Yuan family." Wei Shishi said in a deep voice.
"So they say they don't have the mining capabilities, the technology isn't there," Xu Ying whispered, pondering, "Could it be that they're trying to hide something?"
Li Wenxi stopped looking up at the sky and instead lowered his head to rub his neck, speculating, "For example, that teleportation device, was it put there by them?"
"If that's really the case..." Xu Ying looked at the buildings in the city and sighed, "Then the Yuan family is truly incredible."
"Don't be prejudiced." Wei Shishi's expression was a little ugly, but she still said rationally, "We need to investigate."
