Chapter 531: The Old Man and the Company

A brief chat with Nan Mo became the last thing Xu Luo did before the siege battle. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After that, he stayed in the barracks all day, except for training the reinforcement troops, that is, when he was watching the herd, Zhuang Yan, and Xia Yujia gave him all the information about the transfer of soldiers of several major corps.

But he never expressed an opinion.

Even if Ming Chaocheng came to ask from time to time, he didn't answer.

Sixty-seven hours before the official start of the war, Xu Luo finished reading a document sent by Xia Yujia not long ago, he rubbed his temples, closed the information gently, and a knock on the door sounded at this moment.

It was Wang Yong who came in.

"Slowly, someone wants to see you." He hesitated, then continued, "I don't know if I should let them in or not. ”

Xu Luo knew that if it was Huo Xu, he would never say the second half of the sentence, but for Wang Yong, he had to express his desire to be recognized by Xu Luo, which was still a slightly hesitant performance.

"In the future, if you think I have to see this person, just say it." Xu Luo's tone was a little calm, but he felt a kind of softness to Wang Yong.

His chest immediately straightened higher, and his voice became louder.

"Yes, slightly."

However, Wang Yong did not turn around, but cleared his throat.

"Xu Shao, it's the young man who appeared in the underground base that day." The look on his face became a little strange, "But this time it's two people." ”

Xu Luo immediately understood that the other person was unusual, but his expression remained unchanged.

"Let them in."

"Yes."

Wang Yong turned around and walked out of the house, and after a while, footsteps sounded outside the house, it was the footsteps of two people, Wang Yong and the young man who belonged to the company, and one couldn't hear any sound.

Xu Luo looked at the door, curious about the other person.

Footsteps stopped outside the door.

"Report Colonel, they're coming."

"Please come in."

The door was pushed open, and the first to come in was the young man with a smile that seemed to be not smiling, but he didn't speak, just nodded and gestured to Xu Luo, and then moved to the side and made way for the doorway, very respectfully.

――What kind of person would he be?

Xu Luo stared at the door, his eyes not blinking.

After a pause of three seconds, another person finally appeared in front of Xu Luo's eyes.

Seeing that person, Xu Luo Huoran stood up, and in addition to surprise, there was also a kind of joy after a long absence, and more gratitude in his eyes.

"It's you!"

Xu Luo did not restrain his inner emotions, and he also felt that there was no need at all in front of this person, and no emotional restraint would work on this person.

It is an old Taoist priest who has only met once in Cuining Mountain, Ninghua District.

He still had a big bald head and wore a Taoist robe, but a loose black suit over the Taoist robe made him look even more nondescript.

It's no wonder that Wang Yong has a strange look when he mentions him.

Xu Luo didn't know what to say later, because he still didn't know the old man's name, so he couldn't call him, and for this old man who helped him a lot, not calling him made him feel too disrespectful.

Therefore, his expression is a little wooden now.

"There's no Go here." The old man was very relaxed, looked at Xu Luo with a smile and said, "So you don't have to worry about not being able to talk to me today." ”

Thinking of the scene of meeting the old man that day, Xu Luo couldn't help but smile.

"You may be seated." Xu Luo said, "I don't know what I should call you?" ”

The old man found a chair and sat down, but the young man did not sit down, and stood respectfully behind the old man.

"Taoist priests, old men, and monks can all be." The old man still smiled and said, "I have long forgotten my name, any name. ”

Xu Luo could hear that this was not a prevarication, but a fact.

But why would such an indifferent old man be associated with the company?

"I represent the company." The old man saw the question in Xu Luo's heart, and generously admitted, "I am responsible for the company's affairs in East China." ”

Xu Luo sighed softly and looked at the old man for a while, as if he was thinking about what to ask.

This idea was also felt by the old man.

"You can ask anything." His smile didn't diminish, "I know it too." ”

Xu Luo made up his mind and asked cautiously, "What is the company?" ”

"It's an organization." The old man said lightly, and even pointed at it with his right index finger a little mischievously, "They think it's a lot of trouble to come up with a name, so they call it the company's ......."

"I think it's that simple, too."

-- When this organization was founded, the old man was one of them.

Xu Luo immediately judged this.

"The company existed before the zombies appeared." Xu Luo pondered, "Otherwise, there would be no World Bank, and the World Bank is a company." ”

"I know what you're trying to ask." The old man said, "I guess it's about zombies." ”

He looked at Xu Luo's slightly discolored eyes, and suddenly shook his head.

"At least you should pour a cup of tea."

Xu Luo suddenly realized, an apologetic look appeared on his face, and then he said loudly outside: "Pour two cups of tea." ”

"Any organization needs money, and banks are the best way to do it." The old man said leisurely, "As for why some companies suddenly appeared, this question should actually ask why there are so many base cities on this planet. ”

"Why?"

Xu Luo was completely attracted by the old man's words and blurted out.

"Because there's a discovery!" The old man laughed and said, "I should have read the information I gave you last time, I have many similar materials here, which happened at different times and are available on the entire planet." ”

"What does it mean?" Xu Luo asked.

"It shows that human beings have never figured out why there are such creatures." The old man sighed lightly, "For the unknown, human beings will always have people who work tirelessly to study, and of course the company is like this. ”

Xu Luo said in a deep voice: "You still haven't told me why there is a base city. ”

"Still don't understand?" The old man said strangely, "Any person in power believes in the unknown, but he is afraid of the unknown, because the unknown will bring panic to his regime, so he will definitely use the means of blocking this kind of news, but secretly he will send people to constantly explore ......"

"How could an organization like a company exist without their support."

He glanced at Xu Luo and said in a deep voice: "One day when you become in power, you will do the same, but in a different way." ”

Xu Luo had to admit that the old man was right.

A soldier brought tea at this time, and the conversation between the two ended for the time being, but it was very short, and when the soldier left and closed the door, Xu Luo did not wait for the old man to take a sip of tea before asking questions.

"Why did you choose me?" Xu Luo looked at the old man and asked very seriously.

"Why not you." The old man picked up the tea and took a sip slowly, "The existence of the base city is for human beings, now can you tell me what kind of changes will Xinghai base city have as the largest base city in East China?" (To be continued.) )
