Chapter 232 This is Guangming Soap Factory

"furnace……"

Li Wen muttered for a while.

"It sounds quite high-end. What is the specific project content? Tell me about it."

"Actually, it's just an ordinary stove, well, ordinary."

Li Wen didn't say anything, and just stared at Xu Le with squinted eyes for a while.

After being watched like this by Li Wen for a while, Xu Le knew that if he didn't come up with something tangible, Li Wen might not be able to approve the resources.

After all, the implementation of the furnace project is not just a matter of money. Reliable researchers, a huge and safe site, and even the stationing of some troops are all necessary.

At this point, Xu Le handed Li Wen a plan that he and Xia Libo had just worked out in the past few days.

Secretary Liu on the side wanted to pick him up, but Xu Le did not let go. It was obvious that he didn't even want Secretary Liu to know about this matter.

While Secretary Liu frowned, Li Wen had already walked over.

"give it to me."

"Yes." Secretary Liu nodded and stepped away.

Li Wen himself took Xu Le's plan. When he saw that the content of the project was about the release, combustion, and utilization of Gu Yinduo's energy, he suddenly closed the plan.

"Aren't you timid?"

Xu Le lowered his head and tilted it slightly to the side.

"good."

Li Wen glanced at Secretary Liu next to him and waved.

"Go and do other things."

"Understood." Secretary Liu walked out calmly. He would not refuse Li Wen's order.

When only Li Wen and Xu Le were left in the office, Li Wen reopened the document submitted by Xu Le.

"It's good to be able to come up with such an idea and have a specific plan. At least you are not blindly arrogant because of your previous success, and you have maintained enough vigilance."

Is this a compliment? It still feels like a criticism. Xu Le poured himself a glass of water unconsciously, and then rubbed the glass back and forth a few times.

"Of course Secretary Liu and Uncle Li are different. I don't know him well."

"I don't think you know much about me." Li Wen smiled.

"Indeed, but your status is different. Uncle Li is in a position where he no longer needs to interfere with me to gain benefits, but Secretary Liu cannot, so we need to treat him differently." Xu Le said truthfully.

After hearing what Xu Le said, Li Wen was not angry, but nodded with satisfaction.

"It's really good that you think so. In fact, most of the time, the people around you are the ones who don't want you to be nice."

"Uh? Why do you say that?"

Hearing Xu Le's question, Li Wen's eyes gradually became blurred, as if he was recalling certain things in the past.

“No one is plowing the deserted fields, and there are people who fight for the plowing. They dislike you for being poor, fear you for being rich, hate you for having, and laugh at you for not having. Sometimes even your parents won’t sincerely bless you.

So if you want to succeed, you have to understand that when you do anything, when you want to make it public, it is best when the results have bloomed."

Listening to Li Wen's words, Xu Le nodded in understanding.

"knew."

"I will find a way to get you a piece of land. Do you have any good ideas?"

"I have no idea. I will go wherever Uncle Li arranges for me, as long as Uncle Li can cover me."

"You really don't think about your next development?"

Xu Le raised his head and said with a righteous look:

"I am doing this all for Zion and will never seek personal gain."

"That's really nice to say. Please say a few more words."

"I don't know how to design, manufacture, or develop. I only have passion. All of this is to make Zion greater..."

"Okay, okay, I'm getting goosebumps. I'll transfer the funds and basic researchers to you."

Li Wen waved his hand to stop Xu Le from continuing. He did not expect Xu Le to be so shameless.

Seeing that Li Wen was about to relent, Xu Le quickly asked:

"Uncle Li, it's best to bring in more troops or something, otherwise I won't be able to defend myself if something goes wrong..."

"I don't think these are what you want." Li Wen said expressionlessly.

"Huh? What?" Xu Le said he didn't understand.

"You want me to die." Li Wen said again.

"This, really doesn't happen."

"Okay, you go back and wait for the notification."

"clear."

After Xu Le left, Secretary Liu Shanshan came back and prepared new tea for Li Wen.

"Don't ask about the project just now." Li Wen suddenly said to Secretary Liu.

"The minister will tell me if necessary."

"Oh, couldn't you guess it?" Li Wen said with a smile.

Secretary Liu pondered for a while, then walked up to Li Wen with some solemnity:

"It's too dangerous, minister. If it fails or a major accident occurs, the news will definitely leak out. At that time, the Red Moon Temple will definitely send someone to intervene, and you will be pushed out..."

"But it is undeniable that this so-called melting pot is also very profitable, and it may be able to break the monopoly of the Red Moon Temple." Li Wen narrowed his eyes.

"Why does the minister trust Xu Le so much?"

"Trust? Except for the belly button swallow and the skin swallow, that guy is full of tricks. Who dares to trust him?"

"Then why..."

"Maybe he is very brave."

"What's the meaning?"

"Courage is one of the most precious qualities of human beings. When he dares to stand against the son of Gu Yinduo, it doesn't matter what secrets he has."

…

Many white lanterns have been hung up in Zion at night to commemorate those who died in the Black Tide battle.

The originally scheduled performance by the Zion Arts Troupe has been completely cancelled, and has been replaced by several slightly boring singing programs.

The projection project was arranged, but Wang Man, who was sitting on the rooftop, was not happy at all.

Of course, she didn't go to the rooftop just to jump off the building or anything like that. She is a very optimistic person, and she just came here because she could see things more clearly.

Wang Man put a few bottles of juice on his hand. He originally wanted to buy beer, but after thinking about it, he decided not to.

"Aren't you happy?" a female voice asked softly, it was Wang Man's leader, Sha.

"The programs have been cancelled, they have all died, and a year of hard work has been in vain. Can Sister Sha be happy?"

Wang Man's expression was a little bitter, but her bitterness seemed to be more than just career setbacks, and Sha could also see this.

So, she hugged Wang Man into her arms and comforted:

"In dark times, this is something that everyone has to go through, and we can only become stronger for this."

"Sister Sha is right." Wang Man also hugged this person who has always been like an elder sister to her.

"You said last time that the flowers in Jiming Temple were blooming, so where is the person you are waiting for? Isn't he with you?"

"He already has a girlfriend..." Wang Man's expression was a little downcast, but where Sha couldn't reach her, something strange shone in Wang Man's eyes.

"He's not like you...well, I didn't expect this to be the case. What's his name?"

"His name is Xu Le." Wang Man whispered.

Sha didn't notice Wang Man's eyes, and after comforting Wang Man for a while, she asked again:

"Have you and Xu Le been playmates since childhood? What kind of person is he? If you don't mind, you can tell me about him."

Wang Man narrowed his eyes, as if recalling those happy things in his childhood. After a while, he said:

"Yes, Brother Xu Le and I have been playmates since childhood..."

Wang Man began to slowly tell Xu Le's past, until he went to the lighthouse, his personality changed drastically, and he became a warlock.

"Although the story between you two is short, it is indeed very tortuous. It may be his loss that he is not with you."

"Haha, thank you Sister Sha for comforting me."

"Okay, then you have a good rest, I have to go back and work overtime..."

"Sister Sha, walk slowly."

Watching Sha leave, Wang Man slowly clenched her fists, and her eyes gradually glowed.

The light here is not just eyes, but real white light.
