Chapter 284 Call me Congressman (1.5)

Has the oil run out and the lamp has dried up...

"Even if the oil is exhausted and the lamp dries up, it shouldn't be a problem to try the longevity fruit, right? Although the effect will fade, it shouldn't be completely useless."

"It's something he doesn't want to eat. He has lived too long."

"Uh? What do you mean?"

"A huge family has existed for too long and has a strong interference in the entire city-state. This is not allowed in the eyes of many people.

He is indeed loyal to Zion and committed to the development of this city and era, but he cannot guarantee that his children will do the same thing.

Therefore, Old Moen must step down for the sake of the continuation of his family."

When Xu Le heard this, he swallowed his saliva and asked inappropriately:

"What will happen if Mr. Moen doesn't step down?"

"Old Moen controls too many Zion economies, researchers, has too many disciples, and his sphere of influence is too complex and confusing.

Moreover, he killed Mrs. Archie in front of everyone some time ago. If he does not die, his family's influence will be too great and it will not be conducive to the harmony of the entire Zion."

Li Wen didn't speak clearly, but Xu Le already understood what he meant.

Zion's parliamentary system cannot allow the existence of such families that have long-term influence on the political situation. They are old interest carriers and monopolies.

Such existence will affect the development of Zion.

It can even be said that Old Moen himself has no way of determining whether his heirs will still be loyal to Zion.

When wealth and power reach a certain level, something will gradually change.

"I know." Xu Le looked a little unhappy after hearing this.

The old Moen people are still good. Although they have some differences in ideas, people are about to die...

Li Wen also felt this sad emotion, but he chose to change the topic:

"Okay, everyone will come to the end of their lives one day, tell me how much soap you made last night."

Xu Le was shocked. Li Wen was not as easy to fool as Old Moen.

"Didn't I just say that? 930 yuan is a lot, right?"

Li Wen looked at him sideways and didn't say anything. He just kept looking at him, which made Xu Le feel uncomfortable all over.

"Uncle Li doesn't think I'm lying, right? You know, I'm honest and trustworthy, and I never lie."

Li Wen still said nothing and continued to look at him blankly.

I kept seeing Xu Le feeling a little bit embarrassed.

"Okay, actually it's 1,230 yuan."

"1230? Really?"

"Well, really, it's more real than real gold..."

Afterwards, there was another long, long look at each other. It was obvious that Xu Le was no match for Li Wen in this collision of eyes.

"It's actually from 1630...Okay, okay, it's actually from 1930, it's really gone."

Xu Le waved his hand, and Li Wen did not continue to force him this time.

"For 1,930 yuan, it can completely supplement Zion's current defense fortifications and weapons research. Do you have any other ideas?"

Xu Le was startled. Talking about this kind of thing in such an open place, isn't Li Wen afraid that there are ears through the wall?

"Are we chatting here? What if someone overhears us talking about this?"

"All the people here have been replaced by my people, you can do whatever you want."

Xu Le was stunned again. This was obviously Moen's manor, so why were they all replaced by Li Wen's people?

"Why are your people here?"

"Old Moen no longer trusts anyone, including his children."

Xu Le:……

Although it sounds reasonable, it is still a bit embarrassing when things develop to this extent.

"I see."

"Let's talk about the next energy plan and rationing. The dark tide has passed and the power of the weapons has been verified. We can start preparing for many things."

Xu Le nodded and began his plan for Guyinduo's energy distribution:

"First of all, in terms of civil energy, the previous guaranteed demand was 3 yuan. The guaranteed demand is definitely not able to meet the social needs of Zion today. I plan to use 3-4-3, such a several-stage energy distribution.

After exceeding this critical value, energy prices will increase to a point that a normal family or even an enterprise cannot afford.

Then there is the area of ​​weapon research and development. I mean a minimum of 300 bars of soap per month, and the total consumption in three months is about 900. Not to mention less, I also do research myself, so I actually don’t use that much.

Then for the remaining part, a minimum of 1,000 soap bars are guaranteed as energy supply for city defense. The defense of Zion is the most important issue, and everything is focused on guarding Zion.

This is my general idea, but of course, in actual operation, it still needs to be subdivided."

Xu Le's plan is just a rough outline, but this rough outline is already considered very mature.

But isn’t the quantity of this soap a bit tight?

If the daily consumption is used up, it will cost 1,000 in three months, R&D will cost 900, city defense will cost 1,000, and the consumption of nearly 3,000 bars of soap will be scattered here and there.

Although this can completely replace the moonstone and completely get rid of some economic interference from the Red Moon Temple, the consumption and collection volume always feel that they are not commensurate.

"How much soap did you harvest last night?"

"1930, it's true at a glance, you can check it at any time..."

"Okay, okay, I won't ask you anymore. There's no point in asking you. Prepare a suit. The election will be in a few days."

"Don't worry, this is the moment I have been prepared for."

…

In the next few days, Xu Le was basically preparing some matters for the parliamentary election.

Although it is said to be a sure thing, the most basic preparation is still necessary.

In addition, the daily practice, the development of the furnace, and the research and development of ancient sound multi-energy weapons have not been reduced.

Tomorrow is April 10th, which is the day of the parliamentary election. It may be very busy after that.

So Xu Le stopped practicing today, explained a lot of things, and even called Gu Beichen.

"Have you contacted the intelligence department of the Red Moon Temple?"

"Not yet." Gu Beichen said a little embarrassed.

He boasted a lot before, but when it comes to actually doing it, there are indeed some things that are not easy to deal with.

Contacting the Red Moon Temple rashly and saying that he has inside information is no different from seeking death, so he still has to take it step by step.

"It's been so long and you haven't made any progress? What do you do for a living?"

"You are about to become a member of the House of Representatives. Why are you speaking so rudely? Will the people of Zion support you if you act like this? No."

"You are not a member of Zion. You are now a member of the Red Moon Temple. Why should I be polite to you?"

Gu Beichen was stunned for a moment, then said in frustration:

"I was born as a lighthouse person and die as a dead person in the lighthouse. Sooner or later, I will go back and get back what I lost."

Looking at Gu Beichen's firm eyes, Xu Le's heart moved slightly.

Yeah, the lighthouse, they lost so much there.

Being completely abandoned by a stratified society, and then leaving the city like a dog.

"Yes, you should go back and get back what you have lost." Xu Le also agreed.

"See, you think so too."

Xu Le became angry when he heard him speak:

"What do I think? It has nothing to do with you not doing things with money, right? You have received 50,000 yuan in funding, what on earth are you doing every day?"

Gu Beichen lowered his head and remained silent.

He didn't speak, but someone spoke for him. At this time, Wang Shu came in and directly placed a travel list in front of the two of them:

"In 37 days, he called girls a total of 79 times. He tried all kinds of girls, and even called a few hot girls from Tianrui Lifeng. The taste is really unique.

I feel like after you gave him money, he opened the door to a new world."

Xu Le rubbed his brow:

"Listen to what you said, did I make a mistake in giving him funds for his activities?"

"He calls himself a passionate person, but now he has become a passionate and regular prostitute."

Hearing Wang Shu's description, Gu Beichen on the other side was not ashamed, but proud:
