Chapter 284: Stalemate

After chatting about it, Chu Jungui also roughly knew the level of Li Xinyi's mecha fighting. This girl also needs to be opened, otherwise it is mostly an average level, and it belongs to the kind that can pass the martial arts exam in the academy.

At this time, the atmosphere in the field suddenly became delicate, and then it became awkward.

Li Xinyi didn't mean to be the leader of the 2nd group at all, no matter how slow Xu Zhanfeng was, he knew that he had done something wrong. He only heard that Li Xinyi's attainments in mecha are very high, and he already has a good combat record. However, he did not ask in detail what kind of actual combat results it was.

He originally wanted to take advantage of the simulated battle opportunity to gain the upper hand first, and then admit defeat generously. This not only shows her ability, but also shows that there is such a strong person who is willing to admit defeat to her, which can make Li Xinyi show her face greatly. In this way, the hero hugs the beauty, which is the drama of classic hero films.

It's a pity that the sky does not fulfill people's wishes, and the big scene carefully planned by the macho man, Li Xinyi has a cold attitude, he only feels that he is put on the stage and can't get off.

The atmosphere began to freeze.

Xu Zhanfeng was in a hurry, laughed dryly, and wanted to say something to relieve the embarrassment, but how could he have such an impatience, and after laughing, there was no follow-up.

The macho man hurriedly looked around and wanted to find foreign help.

However, in the big matter of chasing Li Xinyi, all the boys actually stood faintly on the opposite side of Xu Zhanfeng, especially the Xu family.

As for the girl, how can such a dazzling macho man be really happy when he prepares for such a grand event, not for himself but for another woman?

So everyone remained silent tacitly, avoided the macho man's gaze, and continued to roast him on the fire.

The smile on the man's face turned from frozen to distorted, and his feet seemed to be standing on volcanic magma, and he just wanted to leave early.

Fortunately, the savior he was waiting for finally appeared.

There was a long laugh from the entrance, and a handsome young man walked in slowly, and said loudly: "Such a good simulator is really rare on the Sea Dream Star, and it can't be wasted." But what's the point of just practicing with your own people, why don't we have fun?"

The young man who came in had short light blonde hair, blue eyes and an eagle nose, and he was a member of the Federation.

Xu Zhanfeng's face sank, and he shouted: "The guys from the Federation dare to appear here, are they looking for death?"

The young man smiled slightly, but he was not angry, and said, "Although I am not afraid of death, it is not easy to kill me, at least not your turn." ”

Xu Zhanfeng sneered, "Now that Sheng Tang and the Federation are still at war, I think you are a spy mixed in by the Federation! What can I do if I kill you?"

The young man said calmly: "Not only is he not a spy, but he is a diplomat with an official identity and mission. If you really dare to touch me, even the Xu family can't protect you. ”

Xu Zhanfeng was furious and blurted out: "Within the dynasty, there is nothing that my Xu family can't do!"

As soon as the words came out, Xu Zhanfeng's face changed, and he knew that he had said the wrong thing. As a child of a great family, it's okay to think like this, and it's okay to do it, but you just can't say it, especially not in public.

Although Xu Zhanfeng was furious, gaffes in public places have always been a very serious mistake. At this moment, it was like a basin of cold water pouring down, instantly extinguishing all his fire.

Xu Zhanfeng looked left and right, hoping that not too many people would be heard, but it still backfired.

Behind the young man, Yu Guan walked into a group of people, and one of them, a tall middle-aged man, looked at Xu Zhanfeng coldly, and said expressionlessly: "There is really nothing that the Xu family can't do, at least on the Sea Dream Star, I can prove this." ”

As soon as he saw this person, Xu Zhanfeng's heart jumped a few times in an instant.

Chu Jungui finally noticed the macho man's expression,

This majestic-looking man is named Wang Zhi, as the current chief official of Xihai City, he is known for his iron-faced selflessness and good governance, and he is well-known in the entire star field, and his future is limitless.

The problem is that Wang Zhi is the sworn enemy of the Xu family, and he is constrained everywhere. He himself is upright, and he has not put the handle in the hands of others, and even the Xu family has nothing to do with him. However, the Xu family has two big industries in Xihai City, which are very important to the entire family. One of them is a rare element smelter, which specializes in the production of trace amounts of synthetic elements for starship armor.

Problem: This smelter needs a huge amount of energy, and the demand accounts for more than 40% of the entire energy supply of Haimengxing. To this end, the Xu family built two deep-earth energy bases, extracting heat and fusion materials from the planet's core, barely ensuring the supply of smelters.

It's just that in this way, the damage caused to Nemonko is irreversible, and within 1,000 kilometers of the energy base, small earthquakes often occur. Many Sea Dream people believe that this is related to the underground energy base, of course, the Xu family firmly denies it.

The cause of the earthquake is difficult to determine for a while, and what really makes the relationship between Wang Zhi and the Xu family irreconcilable is that the demand for this smelter is simply endless, so the impulse to expand production capacity is also uncontrollable, after all, every gram of rare elements refined is more than 200,000 profits.

Therefore, not only the energy produced by the two underground bases was eaten clean by the smelter, but even the energy in other fields of Sea Dream Star was also robbed by the smelter.

The Xu family is not robbing, but just collecting it at a high price. For them, even a 10-20-fold increase in energy prices is still profitable. Therefore, in the previous decades, almost all the energy supply was eaten by smelters, except for the most basic energy to ensure people's livelihood. This has caused the energy prices of the entire Sea Dream Star to soar, and there have even been strange stories that residents can't light up the lights at night, which is the 35th century!

Therefore, the resentment of the entire Sea Dream Star is boiling, and the planetary government can no longer turn a blind eye, announcing that a series of new energy power stations will be built with the government budget to specifically ensure people's livelihood and electricity. And the Xu family has also reined in and has not eaten all the energy endlessly.

Even with some compromises, the average electricity price of Neptune is still more than 12 times that of planets with similar conditions.

Since Wang Zhi arrived, he has set about building new energy power stations while trying to limit the capacity of smelters. In his opinion, as long as the smelter's capacity is reduced by one-third, the energy and development problems of the entire sea dream star will be solved. After all, the abnormally high energy prices make it impossible for almost most industries to survive in Aemone.

But for the Xu family, the bottom line is that the smelter's production capacity will increase slightly every year. They can't stand even a small increase, and they can still cut production capacity?

The Xu family bribed Wang Zhi to no avail, so they tried to suppress it from a moral point of view. They claimed that the smelter was one of the cornerstones of the Tang Dynasty's military industry and the pillar that supported the Tang Dynasty's foreign wars. If you can't get along with the smelter, you can't get along with the Tang Dynasty, and you hope that the Tang Dynasty will lose the war.

Wang Zhi was unmoved, believing that the war was to make the people in the rear stable and happy, not to make them unable to live.

Morality is difficult to suppress, so the Xu family found another way and wanted to transfer Wang Zhi away. How do you know that Wang Zhi is guarding the West Sea, even if the official is promoted to two levels, he will resolutely refuse to be transferred.

If so, the two sides are at an impasse.
