Chapter 165: Disparity in Strength
"We can't let this town be ruined, the history of this town is the history of our family growth and inheritance for hundreds of years, which is also the proof and record of our existence, here is our foundation, but also our origin, without this town, we have become a rootless duckweed, a source of water, how will our descendants look at us, what face do we have to face the past ancestors after death! We can't let a few people, or a group of crazy bastards who are greedy for money and profit, just for some small profits in front of them, forcibly destroy this town, and at the same time destroy our history, this is a terrible thing that is countless times more terrible than crime, and it is a terrible thing to lose the most basic beliefs of human beings! This is something that will fall into hell, only those who have traded their souls to demons can do, and we must do everything we can to prevent this from happening!" Edward tried his best to say to the few people present, frankly his words were also quite infectious, at least Wei Mingyue and Bai Jingyuan not far away listened to it, and it felt quite good, but it seemed that the reaction of the few people opposite him was not too strong.
It's just that, of course, on the surface, these guys still support Edward, but it's also clear that the extent of their support is quite limited, eh...... That is, although they support it in terms of attitude, they do not intend to give anything in terms of action, which means that although they are happy to see it, if they fail in the end, it is not a big deal.
"That's right, it's good, it's good!" Someone responded like this, clearly indicating their camp, but that's just it, too much in-depth, they don't have that intention at all.
"That's right, that's great, it's just like this, this town is the place where countless of our ancestors grew and lived, and it is also the place where we grew and lived, and the precious home that entrusts our memories and emotions, we should protect it and continue to exist!"
"But now it's almost time for me to go home and work, and there's still a lot to do today!" said someone with a change of words.
"All kinds of things at home haven't been packed up yet, children are always clamoring to go to the city, hey, it's really a headache, of course, Edward, I absolutely support you, you must continue to work hard, you must keep our town!" someone finished speaking, and then patted Edward on the shoulder, and then turned around neatly and walked away.
"Brande is really not a good thing, such a guy must not be cheap to him, just a little money to send us away, there is not such a good thing, oh...... No, no, I don't mean that, of course, the town is the first priority, I will never do it for money, but what can make Brand's headache and trouble, I absolutely support it, Edward, you can rest assured of this!"
"Well, I'm almost time to go back!" another person left.
"Ah, it's been this time, I should go too!"
"Then, Edward, I won't be here with you, by the way, you must stick to this matter, everyone puts all their hopes on you!" The last person to leave encouraged Edward so much, and then turned around and left without looking back, but in a short time, only Edward was left alone on the scene, standing alone in the same place, tasting the cool breeze blowing alone, and the bleak mood was very lonely and desolate.
"I'm dizzy, this situation is not right!" Bai Jingyuan was not far away, but she saw all this in front of her eyes and listened to it, she suddenly felt that this thing seemed to be very different from what she imagined, shouldn't everyone be united and determined to defend their homeland, and swear to resist the destruction of the town by black-hearted merchants?
Why is it the way it is now, this script is obviously wrong!
Although those people seem to have expressed their support, as long as anyone with a discerning eye can see at a glance, it is nothing more than a disappearance, so why are they saying such things in front of Edward now, it is very likely that they will also say similar things in front of the black-hearted merchants, and it is even very likely that they have already reached a certain degree of consensus, and have already completely betrayed this town, but they are still in a friendly manner, fooling the poor Edward in front of them.
"It's really not right! It seems that the problem we are going to face is far bigger than we imagined, and it is much more troublesome!" Wei Mingyue naturally saw this, this script is indeed different from what was imagined at the beginning, so what should not be like this, in Wei Mingyue's thoughts, difficulties must exist, but there must be ingenious solutions, in terms of the general situation, it should be the strength of the two sides, and then with their help, it is just right to overwhelm the opponent!
That's what it should look like!
But for now, in fact, it seems that the strength of the two sides has not reached the same situation at all, on the contrary, there is quite a huge disparity, which is simply like the difference between a giant and a child!
Even with the help of Wei Mingyue and Bai Jingyuan, it was just a little bit of a little bit of strength for the child, as if it was a power gain aura, but just that, it was not enough at all, the gap with the giant was still extremely obvious, and in fact, there was no change in the situation.
"It's troublesome now!But maybe there's something we haven't noticed, or something!" Bai Jingyuan said, her views are similar to Wei Mingyue's, there is no absolute dead end, just see if you can find a place to break the game, then Dongshan can rise again, salted fish can also turn over, and it is not impossible to turn the tables in one fell swoop.
But this undoubtedly requires a lot of intelligence.
It's just that that's what they're missing right now.
And Edward in front of them is undoubtedly their most likely breakthrough.
I hope to get some precious clues and hints from him, as for him himself, whether it is Wei Mingyue or Bai Jingyuan, they basically don't have any expectations.
