Director Wen frowned slightly: "The Fenghuo Order was in the hands of the then leader of Fenghuo and never showed up. Although the major families coveted this thing, they had no choice but to take action. However, this opportunity is very good. The previous leader of Fenghuo was inexplicable.
Death, the whereabouts of the Beacon Fire Order are unknown, and the First Elder and the Egg Faction are fighting for power again. We take this opportunity. As long as we get the Beacon Fire Order, at least the people who swing the Beacon Fire can be used by our family. Did you know
, Fenghuo has existed for more than three hundred years, and their power is much stronger than our family. With the support of Fenghuo, we will not take the royal family lightly."
"By the way, boss, it is said that Zhang Yue'e has a good relationship with Ma Shulin, a member of the army. Should we ask Ma Shulin?"
Director Wen shook his head: "Do you think people from a certain military department will ask questions if they say they want to ask questions? They have to make a report, and they need the approval of their superiors. At the same time, some of our inquiry questions must be informed in advance. The actual incident at Zhuoyi Laboratory
It also involves the upper level, and the upper level is also clear to infiltrators like us. To put it bluntly, this is a delicate balance between our underground world and the above-ground world. We send people here, and they get what they want from us, such as
Technology, such as medical treatment, and even some weapons. Well, you can draft a letter first, send it over, and get approval, and then we'll talk."
"yes."
...
A certain military department, in the core office.
An old man was sitting quietly on the sofa reading a newspaper. In front of the old man, stood a man in black uniform.
The old man didn't say a word, but the man was already sweating profusely.
After a long time, the old man put down the newspaper in his hand, picked up the tea cup, and took a shallow sip.
"These families... really do everything they can..." The old man chuckled and raised his head to glance at the man in front of him.
"Chief, what should we do next? Do we want to do it all at once?" The man wiped the sweat from his face and asked.
"No need!" The old man waved his hand, "There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. The world on earth belongs to us, or at least this country belongs to us. Our territory, airspace, and territorial sea can only be decided by our people!
"
"Then what about those families in the underground world? Chief, here is a list..."
"Humph, of course we will continue to cooperate." The old man calmly took the list, scanned it quickly, and said with a smile, "The interests of the country are always higher than personal interests, do you understand?"
"Understood!"
The old man smiled slightly: "Little boy, you have been following me for a long time. Everyone said that you are not talented enough to follow me."
"No, Chief, there is no such thing as Qu Cai. Only by following you can I know how wonderful this world is."
"Haha, it's hard for you. People like us will never be able to get on the stage, but it gives us more freedom. Take some time and go meet this person." The old man said, throwing it to
A photo of a man.
This photo is a rare color photo. Yes, in this era, color photos were not unavailable, but the production cost was very high. Generally speaking, only special powerful people could have such things.
The man took a look at the photo and asked curiously: "Who is this person?"
The old man chuckled: "A powerful person, powerful enough to check and balance all the families in the underground world."
The man felt a little weird, because the person in the photo looked much younger than him, and the words written under the photo did not indicate how powerful the person was.
After walking out of the old man's office, the man took out the photo and looked at it again, and said silently: "Phoenix City, worker of the fourth riveting factory, Ma Xiaohu..."
...
"Sneeze~" Zhang Yue'e suddenly sneezed, and Ma Xiaoquan said with a smile, "Did Ma Shulin miss you?"
Zhang Yue'e blushed: "What are you talking about? I haven't seen him for almost a month. Hey, I'm so annoyed. That Wanbo comes to me every day. How about you wandering around without home all day?"
,Isn’t the capital fun?”
"It's true that there are a lot of delicious food in the supply and marketing cooperative, much more than the supply and marketing cooperative in Phoenix City. I was so delicious that I used up all my food stamps." Ma Xiaoquan said, "This way, Wanbo guy doesn't have to worry.
If he comes again, I will help you get rid of him and you can lend me ten kilograms of food stamps."
"Why are you so greedy? I bought food for everyone with my food stamps, and... you must not mess with Wan Bo. His family has a very strong relationship." Zhang Yue'e said.
"Who do you think I am? I am a civilized person!"
As soon as Ma Xiaoquan finished speaking, a woman's abusive voice came from outside the house: "Ma Xiaohu, get out of here!"
Ma Xiaoquan was stunned for a moment, then responded: "Who doesn't want to yell and scream?"
When I came out of the house, I saw a middle-aged woman holding a scale in her hand.
"You brat, you bought my preserves, but you still got a dime less? You brat, you eat them secretly every time you go to buy preserves. If you do this again next time, I won't be able to beat you to death."
Zhang Yue'e pursed her lips and smiled, stepped forward and gave the middle-aged woman fifty cents, and said: "Sister, calm down, he buys candied fruits for all of us to eat together."
When the middle-aged woman got the money and saw it, her face immediately changed and she said to Zhang Yue'e: "Yue'e, this kid is really naughty. Okay, no more, I'm leaving."
Watching her eldest sister leave, Zhang Yue'e walked up to Ma Xiaoquan and joked: "Civilized people, buy candied fruits and eat them secretly?"
Ma Xiaoquan's face turned red with embarrassment.
At this moment, the courtyard door rang, and Wanbo pushed open the door and walked in, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand. On his right wrist, a string of blood-red lotus flowers dripping with blood was extremely eye-catching.
Seeing Wan Bo, Zhang Yue'e frowned slightly.
Ma Xiaoquan was worried that he couldn't find the stairs. When he saw Wan Bo coming, he stepped forward and snatched the flowers from his hand, and then pushed and pushed him out.
Wanbo was confused the whole time, and when he came to his senses, he was already standing outside the courtyard door.
"This bastard~" Wan Bo was so angry that his teeth itched, but since there were no flowers in his hand, he stopped knocking on the courtyard door.
Following the gap in the courtyard door, Ma Xiaoquan laughed and handed the flowers to Zhang Yuee after seeing Wan Bo leave.
"I don't want his flowers." Zhang Yuee threw the flowers on the ground.
...
Central laboratory.
Professor Ma Ruiqing called Yang Lei and Zhao Minglan in front of him and said: "I have communicated with the superiors. The accident in our Zhuoyi Laboratory has been classified as a second-class accident and may be disbanded."
"What?" Zhao Minglan was unhappy when he heard this, "Teacher, how is this possible? Anti-aging research has been carried out abroad for a long time. We finally made a breakthrough, should we just give up like this?"
Ma Ruiqing sighed: "I have no choice."
Yang Lei said: "Teacher, why don't we all go abroad? Foreign countries can provide better research laboratories, research materials and research funds."
Ma Ruiqing shook his head: "No, this country is our motherland. Never think of betraying the motherland. Yang Lei, I know you have been abroad before and you think it is good, but we are always people with yellow skin and black hair. We
The roots are here, do you understand?"
Yang Lei nodded: "Teacher, I understand. I'm sorry, teacher. I will never say this again in the future."
"Okay~ But your suggestion is not unacceptable. Doesn't the Edward Laboratory want to cooperate with us? Then let them know. My research project can't be wasted like this. If this road doesn't work, just leave it.
Let’s take the commercial route, at least the property rights will always belong to us.”
Zhao Minglan and Yang Lei looked at each other and nodded happily.
"By the way, Minglan, do you have a younger brother who is also in the capital?" Ma Ruiqing suddenly asked Zhao Minglan.
"Yes, teacher, he was sent here by his work unit to do something."
"Oh, let's take some time to come over and have a meal together."
Zhao Minglan exclaimed, Teacher Xindao is a busy man, why did he suddenly ask my brother to eat?
Thinking about it, after returning to the courtyard, Zhao Minglan still told Ma Xiaoquan about the teacher's invitation to dinner.
Ma Xiaoquan was also very surprised. In his impression, although his aunt was peaceful, she almost never participated in family dinners. He had a very indifferent impression of his aunt. Ma Xiaoquan once asked his father about his aunt.
Dad also hesitated and couldn't explain clearly. In the end, there was really nothing to say. Dad would only say that your aunt is not of the same class as us. There are some things that she can't say and it's not convenient for us to ask.
Ma Xiaoquan was actually a little excited at the thought of meeting his aunt. After all, such a mysterious figure was still his relative. Ma Xiaoquan felt that it was necessary to check it out.
That night, Ma Xiaoquan found Yue Ting and asked her to help investigate Ma Ruiqing.
It has to be said about the efficiency of the Yu family. Two days later, Yue Ting handed a document bag to Ma Xiaoquan.
"Your aunt is very powerful. Many of the anti-aging topics she studies are far beyond any ideas in this world." Yue Ting nodded.
"Really?" Ma Xiaoquan opened the document bag and quickly browsed the information inside, "Then does my aunt know about the underground world?"
"It's possible. After all, your aunt and Mr. Edward of our Yu family are senior brothers and sisters. Mr. Edward used to be from the earthly world."
"Why don't you recruit such a powerful person?"
Yue Ting shook her head: "I tried, but it was useless. Besides, there is a delicate balance between the above-ground world and the underground world. This is a conventional rule. Major families, including other countries in the underground world, will not recruit excessively.
For people in the above world, in the same way, the underground world absorbs people from the above world, mostly in small amounts. After all, the technology of the underground world and other series of things completely subvert the cognition of people in the above world."
