Chapter 187: Mark Is Here (Part 3)
The call came from Xiaoyao Central Station, a special train from the Imperial-Group area where the sun never sets, and applied to enter the station. In accordance with federal transportation regulations, there are no trains that are reported 24 hours in advance, and any destination has the right to refuse to enter the station.
But the one in front of him couldn't refuse, because it wasn't another car that drove it, but the "William No. 1" of the empire on which the sun never sets.
This is a special train for Prince Philip, chairman of the Sunset Empire Group, and the purpose of this train is to come to audit the situation of Black Odin metal materials on behalf of the Global Trade Research Council.
This trade investigation committee has not been in operation for a long time, it uses the old century number "to" organization, almost forgotten by the world, there is such a unit, but because of the appearance of black odin metal, it is out of the mountain again.
The Sun Never Sets Empire Group took the initiative to bear all the costs of this investigation, actively cooperated with the operation of TO, and even sent a special train and special personnel to come together.
Zhang Lan can not take TO seriously, but the guests who can take William 1 must be received in a big battle. As soon as they got the information, officials of all sizes in the city rushed to the central station.
"Wearing this and letting others see you by my side might be embarrassing for you." Zhang Lan handed Yuna a mask.
"You told me to do it, what kind of big man made you so excited." Yuna asked, putting on her mask.
"William No. 1 is Prince Philip's special train, but Prince Philip is too old to be willing to appear on the ground at this time, which is not good for his health, so this train has not been used for more than ten years. Now to launch again, it is obvious that there must be someone worthy of his identity, 98 is likely, his only son, Mark is coming. ”
Zhang Lan smiled, although he calculated that the Sunset Empire Group would be the first to take an interest in Xiaoyao City, they would definitely send someone to find out the details. But what Zhang Lan didn't expect was that such a big fish would be lured out.
You must know that Mark is the heir to take over the Sunset Empire Group, and if you have a good relationship with him, Zhang Lan will have a real bargaining chip that can be with the Overlord Group.
Thanks to the extravagance and waste of Xiaoyao City in the past, there is a special platform for VIPs in the central station, and all the big and small officials are here, and it does not seem crowded.
Zhang Lan saw Queen Elian, who had not been seen for many days, and the two stood side by side. As for Yuna, she stood in the back of the line with Nightingale and the others, and she had a bad premonition, because she felt that the purpose of Mark's trip would not be so simple.
"You've lost weight lately, can't you eat well?" Ilian looked sideways at Zhang Lan and whispered.
"You're not the same, you're emaciated." Zhang Lan smiled.
"Too many things to deal with, I can only sleep 4 hours a day, I must be crazy to be tricked by you to take over this mess, I was an elegant lady who didn't have to do anything, but now it's good, even the trivial matters of catching thieves in the city have to be dealt with." Elianne complained, but unconsciously with a coquettish tone.
"We are destined to be extraordinary, challenges are fate, and now the operation of MEmu is going in the right direction. How good it is that your father's vision has been fulfilled in your hands. Zhang Lan comforted.
"Not long after Minister Zhang took office, his kung fu is getting better and better, no matter what, I drink your ** soup comfortably, just be tired when you are tired, I hope Xiaoyao City can survive the difficulties." Speaking of this, Elian's face became nervous, "Zhang Lan, you should know very well that our financial situation is not enough to support so many reform plans. A large number of new immigrants still arrive every day, and now they have started to drink porridge, and after a maximum of 2 months, we can't even afford to drink water. ”
Xiaoyao City is a mining and heavy industry city, almost no agricultural and sideline products production, all rely on imports to solve, which also makes the financial pressure extremely high, always have to consider the food needs of the people, people can not wear clothes, but must not go without food.
"I know all the crises, even the ones that go bankrupt on a specific day and every second. Meantime...... I also know all the turnarounds, just like at this moment, it's the turnaround. ”
As Zhang Lan spoke, the metal gate on the city wall in the distance slowly opened, the suspension bridge was lowered, and it was connected to the outer track, and a pure white fortress train slowed down, and the legendary William 1 had a different design from the inner fat of the fortress, using a bullet-shaped body, which could accelerate to 400 kilometers per hour, and there was no terrifying heavy cannon and machine gun muzzle on the front of the car.
Because of the security system of William 1, there are up to 1,800 honeycomb drone combat systems attached to the roof of the car, which can detect all kinds of hidden dangers from 30 kilometers away, and then release the drones to destroy all suspicious targets.
All honeycomb drones are equipped with ion weapons, and the combat effectiveness can destroy a full number of more than 10,000 blocking troops, as well as ion shields, etc., even if they are attacked head-on with city defense artillery, they can also be perfectly defended, and the cost of the entire William 1 is comparable to the price of an aerospace aircraft carrier, and only the chairman of the 7 major groups can afford to play this expensive toy.
Seeing that the train, which was far more expensive than the entire central station, stopped on the VIP platform, the automatic hatch opened from the inside, and the first person who got off the car, others may not have seen it, but Yuna was already trembling.
Because the young man who was wearing loose skateboard pants and an exaggerated orange hoodie was the middle row of the heaven-level demigod clan...... Apollo!
is the so-called electric flint Apollo, infinite gravity Ye impermanence, he and Ye Wuchang are the closest competitors every time they qualify, and the victory or defeat is only in an instant.
Such a terrifying figure represents the most powerful combat power of the Empire on which the sun never sets, and Yuna now believes that the figure who was sent is unattainable.
A group of old pedantic officials who had come over were not taken seriously at all, and only when Philip Mac, who was dressed in a royal dress, stepped out of the car, the people around him stood up solemnly.
Queen Ilian stepped forward in person, nodded politely and saluted, "Prince Mark is here, and I hope you will forgive me for my disappointment." ”
Eliam...... Now it's time to address you as Her Majesty. Mark smiled and bowed, so naturally he took Elion's little hand and gave a gentle kiss on the back of that hand, "I haven't seen you for many years, you are still the same young and beautiful, how did you do it?" ”
"Stay away from love, concentrate on eating, drinking and having fun, and be naturally young." Eliam and Mark are not restrained when they joke, because these two are old acquaintances, and they can be regarded as friends who can talk to each other.
"I don't feel that you are far away from love at all, but I feel that your emotional line is very rich." Mark looked sideways at Zhang Lan as he spoke.
"Prince Mark laughed, this is in Runaway, and talking nonsense will be locked up." Although Zhang Lan is a diplomat, she does not hold back in her speech.
"Mark, do you want his life?" Just behind Mark, Apollo, who was carrying an anti-gravity skateboard, picked up the hood on his head, and without eyebrows, he looked directly at Zhang Lan, his eyes as sharp as knives.
"Apollo, it's a little polite, we're here to make friends, not to slaughter the city." Mark admonished.
"It's a friend who speaks politely, and he who speaks without bounds, and he wants to teach him a lesson, Prince Mark, do you think what I said makes sense?" Zhang Lan greeted without humility or arrogance.
"I heard that Gu Xuan paid the price of a city to buy your necked head, it seems that you are worth the price." Mark nodded in satisfaction.
