This Game Is Too Realistic

As Miss Bella said, the situation in Mammoth City is completely different from the "concession" of the Silver Moon Sect believers. It can even be said that they are two different worlds.

The latter has beautiful marble buildings and clean streets. Most of the pedestrians walking on the street are well-dressed. It is almost the same as the Silver Moon Bay next door.

The former one is full of messes. Not to mention the stone buildings, there is nothing that can even be called a street.

Most of the dirt roads were made by people's footprints, and only two open drainage ditches were dug on the roadside.

On both sides of the road are temporary shacks built with wood, branches or plastic boards.

The locals call it terraced house. Two or three families can often fit into a terraced house, so crowded that there is no room to stand, so they still have to squeeze in.

After all, many families here are just like the slums in the Nihak period of Port Gingal. The family cannot afford two pieces of clothing, so they cannot stand naked on the street.

As for the privacy between several families, they can only make do with partitions in the townhouses.

Besides, there are almost no young men here.

Local young adults either became soldiers, went to nearby factories or concessions to help, or boarded labor export ships to the reconstructed Beidao.

As for the old, weak, women and children who stayed behind, those with clothes sat at the door and worked, while those without clothes sat at home in a daze, waiting for meals to be served at the soup kitchen.

Speaking of suffering, the people here are indeed suffering, but the authorities did not let them eat dirt, and still gave them some of the few remaining grains.

After all, the authorities still need their men to work hard.

Sisi did not go in to take a look, because the size of the meat was really inconvenient, and he was afraid of scaring the people here, so he just glanced at the endless slum from a distance.

Next to the relief point, there are rows of wooden boards with scrawled slogans on them, such as "Every family has enough to eat."

"...This is simply treating people as goods." Rourou's heart was faintly touched, and he couldn't help but muttered.

She is an outspoken person and always says what she has to say without hiding it in her heart.

Just now she thought Lacy might be a good person, but now she didn't think he was such a good person anymore.

Sis thought for a while and said.

"... From livestock to goods, it is difficult to judge whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, but in the end they have food to eat."

Bella didn't seem to want them to stay here any longer. No one likes to have their scars uncovered, so she said quickly.

"There is no road ahead. Let me take you to other places."

Sisi nodded.

"Well, please."

The group of people returned to the main road and walked towards an industrial area near the sea.

This is probably the place in the entire Mammoth City, other than the leased parish, where the reconstruction work has started most smoothly.

Especially in the Lister Group's factory and the surrounding area, there are almost no traces of the disaster.

The tall factory building is located on a higher ground near the sea in Mammoth City. A spacious cement road is closely connected to the port area, and there is a railway transportation line that has been opened to traffic next to it.

Large and small processing plants and workshops surround the central factory building, extending along the only road toward the train station.

Most of these are Liszt's industries, but some are made by local people who followed suit, especially hardware, machinery repair and even arms production, etc.

Taitail and Rourou were even surprised to find that there was a scrapped Conqueror 10 tank parked here!

"My giao! Legion tanks!"

"Good guy...is this captured?"

Looking at the screaming tail and Rourou, Sisi said thoughtfully.

"Nine 㵕 was seized, right? The legion wouldn't sell the arms here... I guess the authorities don't have many dinars in foreign exchange reserves. This thing is not cheap."

The entire tank body structure is basically intact, except that two tracks are broken.

It was obvious that the tracks of this tank were broken on the front line. The Imperial crew abandoned the vehicle and ran away, and were later dragged back from the front line by the guerrillas.

Two repairmen wearing exoskeletons were surrounding the tank, and an officer with a high military rank stood beside them. They seemed to be thinking together about how to repair this thing.

Although the layout of this area is a bit sloppy, it already has some prototypes of an industrial area.

On the outskirts of the industrial zone, there are rows of "corn buildings" full of flavor.

These houses made of prefabricated concrete panels can be regarded as the most "luxury" buildings in this area.

What impressed the locals was not only the sturdy roof, but also the "luxurious" supporting facilities.

In addition to the smooth cement road, every few buildings are equipped with boiler rooms, private bathrooms, communal cafeterias, and literacy schools where children are taught and people are taught at night.

The configuration here is completely copied from the dormitory building in Boulder City Industrial Zone, and some improvements based on local conditions have been made.

For example, the winter in Mammoth State is not as cold as in the River Valley Province, and the weather in December only requires a coat. There are no radiators installed in this dormitory building, and the boiler room only heats bath water.

The workers who live here are all Mammoth City's "new rich."

Being able to get a job at the Liszt Factory, even if it's just cutting vegetables in the employee canteen or working as a picker on the assembly line, can be regarded as a respectable person in the entire Mammoth City.

Although the authorities have also spent money to build a number of affordable housing in the city, the supporting facilities are still far inferior to the employee dormitories of the Lister Factory.

It is no exaggeration to say that the place where these workers live is even better than that of the officers of the Resistance Army, not to mention the vast majority of civilians in the city who still live in row houses and eat relief porridge.

I'm afraid Liszt himself didn't expect that he, who was regarded as a "savage beast" by the workers' union in the alliance, would actually become a good person in the eyes of the locals here.

The locals praised him without hesitation, and there was even a rumor that if someone's family could have a worker who worked in Liszt's factory, his ancestors would be in trouble!

It was precisely because of this that when Bella brought Tai Tai and his group to come here and introduced the situation here, there was also envy that could not be hidden between her eyebrows.

"...This entire factory area is Mr. List's factory, with a total of more than 10,000 people working directly or indirectly for him. He introduced production lines for steel, aluminum and solid-state hydrogen batteries to our settlement, but currently The only products available here are hydrogen ejector, high-pressure storage tank and fuel electrode.”

Sisi glanced at the majestic factory building and said with sincere emotion.

"You don't have any industrial supporting facilities. It's already great to be able to produce these."

Recently, the electrification process of the alliance has been promoted from household appliances such as TVs, refrigerators and air conditioners to the private car industry. The South China Sea Alliance is even planning to rebuild large-scale ocean current power stations. There is extremely strong demand for both small and large energy storage equipment.

Hydrogen ejector, high-pressure storage tank, and fuel electrode are all key parts of solid-state hydrogen batteries, and the latter has a market in both the Alliance and the South China Sea Alliance.

In particular, Lister Group itself operates industries such as exoskeletons and new energy vehicles. As long as the quality of the products it produces meets standards, there is no need to worry about lack of sales.

It can be seen that Liszt is really optimistic about this market, otherwise he would not put such a key product here.

"Indeed, the foundation here is too poor. Thanks to the help of that gentleman, we can reach this step today," Bella nodded, with gratitude in her eyes, and continued, "When he comes here, "Before, there was not a single factory in Mammoth City. Now we not only have coal power stations, railways, roads, steel plants and aluminum plants, but we can also process some export products."

"I heard that the monthly output value of this factory has reached 10 million silver coins, and the production capacity is still growing!"

"If this trend continues, we may be able to grow by 30 million yuan this year, which is equivalent to 300 million yuan in our own currency! Mammoth State's poverty alleviation and prosperity can all depend on it!"

Looking at the energetic girl, Sisi couldn't help but smile.

"Don't belittle yourselves too much. The most we can do is to bring some fire. In the end, it is up to you to light the fire. If one day you become rich, it will not only be for our sake." Help is more due to your own hard work.”

In this process, the alliance is certainly profitable. After all, prosperity is something that promotes each other.

Just like the Alliance and the South China Sea Alliance.

Before entering the Baiyue Province, the alliance's "蟞-type" engineering armor could only carry out onshore projects, but after absorbing the submarine construction technology in the southern seas and contracting the project of submarine freshwater pipelines, it immediately evolved A series of models such as "Crab Type" and "King Crab" have been produced.

Nowadays, whether it is the coast of Baiyue Strait or the islands in the southern seas, development is like a rocket.

Not to mention the earlier Luoxia Province, where the alliance's fertilizers, seeds, and agricultural machinery more than doubled the food production there. Not only did the residents of Luoxia Province live a better life, but the residents of River Valley Province also had enough to eat.

For example, Mammoth State and even the entire Borneo Province, like Golden Gallen Port, are also added to the camp of the world, which is a great benefit to both the locals and the alliance itself.

If all the survivors in the wasteland unite, this wasteland era full of suffering and death will definitely end.

Hope that day is not too far away...

…

For a whole day, Sisi, Taiwei and the others were inspecting the industrial area of ​​Mammoth Continent.

Generally speaking, this is a booming market, and many factories have the potential to grow bigger, but they lack technology and funds. The latter happens to be the most lacking in the alliance right now.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if you buy a few pieces of land here, develop real estate and wait for the appreciation, you will definitely not lose money.

Everyone walked around until the sun went down before returning to the hotel in the parish.

This trip can be said to be fruitful.

The only regret is that in the end, the tail and Rourou were not seen either [the mammoth they had longed for...

The night was getting darker, and only the parish lights were still on along the entire coastline.

One of these lights belongs to the office of the General Administration of Customs.

Although it was already time to get off work, Axi did not leave here, but paced back and forth in front of the desk.

After waiting for a long time, he finally waited for the phone on the table to ring. He quickly walked over and grabbed the receiver. Before the other person could speak, he asked eagerly.

"How is it going? Are those distinguished guests from the alliance satisfied?"

He has been worrying about this matter all day, fearing that something might go wrong.

The other end of the phone soon received a reply, and Bella, who was standing in the post office phone booth, reported it meticulously.

"... Overall, they are quite satisfied, their evaluation of us is above neutral, and they are also very interested in the development potential of the local area. I heard from the lady named Sisi that they plan to invest in opening a bank here to help us complete the financial reform."

When Ya Xi heard this, an expression of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face, and he clenched his fists excitedly.

"Great!"

Although the influence of the Bear Knights is far less than that of the Baiyue Company, it is also a bank of considerable size.

It started in the Petra Fortress during the Luoxia Province War, and later based itself in the Silver Moon Bay. It developed overseas along the trade routes of the Alliance. Its business scope covers the coast of the Borneo Sea and even the southern waters, and has incubated many potential enterprises and business groups.

If the Bear Knights Bank can be attracted here, its significance is no less than attracting another Lister Group to invest!

Listening to the surprise from the other end of the phone, Bella was silent for a while and continued to report.

"Also, there is one more thing. Although I advised them not to leave the parish as much as possible, they still went to the nearby city. I couldn't refuse, so I took them to visit the industrial area and the nearby residential area... But on the way, I still let them see the situation in the slums." The slums in Mammoth City are like an ugly scar. No one can have any good feelings towards the authorities after seeing it. Although the authorities have also made some efforts, it is not a problem that can be solved in a short time. Hearing that the distinguished guests of the Alliance went there, Ashton became nervous and asked cautiously. "Did they say anything?" Bella recalled the previous events carefully, then shook her head and said. "That's not the case."

In fact, it can't be said that there was no such thing, but they were speaking a language she didn't understand at the time, so she didn't understand what they were saying.

Yashi, standing in front of the desk, fell silent, and finally sighed.

"...We can only hope that they can understand our difficulties."

He could feel that the purpose of these distinguished guests coming to Mammoth City was not just a simple business investigation, but also a task assigned by the Alliance managers, such as studying whether the Mammoth State authorities were worthy of the Alliance's investment.

Although it was a bit embarrassing to say it, the support of the Alliance was too important for them.

He hoped they could give him a definite answer, even if it was a negative evaluation, so that he could explain it and make some changes based on the opinions.

No one said anything, which made him most nervous.

"Are they dissatisfied with anything? Like complaining about something... No matter what it is, tell me everything!"

Bella was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then said in an uncertain tone.

"Uh... the lady named Tail seemed to be very sorry for not seeing the mammoth, and it seems that this is it."

Can this be considered a complaint?

Just when she was confused, Ya Xi slapped the desk vigorously.

"Quick! Contact the Mammoth City Militia immediately and have them go to the north bank of the Tasang River to catch one - no, catch two and send them back to them! One male and one female!"

Hearing this unreasonable order, Bella was completely stunned, her mouth wide open and she stood there in a daze.

"Send, send two mammoths?"

Does this guy know how big that thing is?

But Ya Xi didn't care and said confidently.

"This is a necessary investment! It's also for the future of Mammoth City! Do as I say, and don't let the distinguished guests of the alliance leave regrets!"

Seeing that this guy was not joking, Bella could only put away her confused expression and cheer up to accept the order.

"Yes!"

...

At the same time, on the border of Mammoth State, in the military tent of the Empire's Grey Wolf Army.

General Alaiyang, the commander-in-chief of the Grey Wolf Army, was looking at the list sent by the logistics officer, and his thick eyebrows gradually twisted into two centipedes.

The logistics officer standing in front of him dared not breathe, and could only stand there trembling.

However, what is coming will eventually come.

A sharp look shot at him, and Alaiyang slapped the list in his hand on the command table with a snap, staring at the logistics officer aggressively.

"Where are the tanks? Why haven't the Conqueror X tanks I want been delivered yet? Why are all the logistics supplies in this batch of goods light weapons and dry food!" The logistics officer was very upset when he heard this, and he explained with a bitter face. "You don't know, sir... Recently, the Alliance and the Legion suddenly had a dispute, and the Alliance detained the arms that were originally promised to help the Legion to send to the Falcon Kingdom." Alaiyang was stunned when he heard this, and his mouth was open for a long time. "The weapons of the Legion...were detained by the Alliance?" This sentence contained too much information, and he didn't understand it for a while. How did the weapons of the Legion go to the Alliance? And they had to go through the Alliance to be delivered to him. This is the problem caused by the information blockage. Being on the front line, he didn't know what agreement the Empire and the Legion had reached, nor did he know what the Legion and the Alliance had argued about at the Communities Conference.

He had a feeling in his heart that he was like a chess piece, caught between two fists.

Not even just him, but Lacy standing opposite him as well.

From an unresolved outcome, they were involved in a new game.

Jue told him that this war might not end so easily...

The logistics officer sighed and said helplessly.

"That's all I know... Not to mention you, His Majesty is also very anxious now, but we can't push this matter. What I heard from the legion is that if the alliance knows that the arms have made a big circle Things get troublesome here."

In fact, it turns out that there is no need for him to be so polite to Alaya. If it had been before, the latter would have been talking in rhymes with his breath.

Unfortunately, the local forces are becoming more and more disobedient, and the only thing Tiandu can rely on is the central army that is suppressing bandits on the border.

Nowadays, Alaya is very popular in Xilan's court, and both the emperor and the dukes and marquises regard him as a life-saving straw.

Looking at the helpless logistics officer, Alaiyang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

"Then what should we do now? Those rebels used alliance equipment and built the defense line like an iron barrel. We can't defeat it without the support of iron-shaped equipment! Even if we attack by force, the soldiers will just die!"

The logistics officer's eyes wandered for a while, and he hesitated for a moment.

"It really doesn't matter...it's not impossible for the frontline offensive to slow down for a while. The news from the legion is that they will find a way to solve the problem, so that we can calm down for a while."

If the alliance cannot find the evidence they are looking for, they will ultimately have no choice but to fulfill the contract and release the seized arms.

And even if they found evidence, they would not be able to confiscate the arms. At most, they would send them back to the Wei Mansion wasteland and let the legion solve it on their own.

It's not that the legion doesn't have ships. The equipment will be delivered here sooner or later, but it will take a while... At least that's how the Wilantes behave with them.

"Slow down a moment..." Alaya sneered, "If we slow down any longer, the rebels' railways will have to be built on the front line!"

I don’t know where those poor people got so much steel and cement.

The spies he sent into Mammoth City to gather information have not found out anything yet. They just heard that some of the ships transporting building materials came from Golden Gallon Port and some from the southern waters.

"If not... we can still do this," the logistics officer gritted his teeth and finally took out the last card, "Before the battle, your majesty told me that if the battle situation is really difficult, the general can go to Mazhou, The Niaozhou area is recruiting troops and horses."

After hearing this, Alaya narrowed his eyes and stared at the logistics officer.

"Is this really what His Majesty said?"

Being stared at by that gaze, he broke into cold sweat, and the logistics officer said tremblingly.

"It's absolutely true! How dare I fool you about such a thing?"

Alaya stared at him expressionlessly.

"Are there any relevant documents?"

The logistics officer shook his head quickly.

"No... His Majesty just gave me verbal instructions."

Alaya stared at him meaningfully, and then looked at the list in his hand.

No wonder so many rifles were sent. It turned out to be this...

"I understand, you can go down."

"Yes, sir!" The logistics officer finally breathed a sigh of relief and resigned respectfully.

Watching the logistics officer leave, the silent staff officer Gopal looked at Alaya.

"Your Majesty allows you to recruit troops locally. Isn't this a bad thing? Why is the general looking so sad?"

"What happened?"

A trace of complicated emotions appeared in Alaya's eyes, and he said calmly after a moment.

"Can't you see... When this battle is over, we will be abandoned."

There is no document, only a verbal decree, and it only takes a few words for His Majesty to acknowledge or deny it.

It's okay if you admit defeat.

If you don't admit it, even if it is a small matter, it will drive the people to the front line to serve as cannon fodder.

And if Your Majesty wants to go deeper, it will be a capital crime for treason.

If you fail to do so, it will bring harm to your family.

Seeing the concern in Alaya's eyes, Gopal just smiled faintly.

"Whether he is an abandoned son or not, we still have the soldiers in our hands."

Aryan's eyes narrowed, and there was a hint of danger in his eyes when he looked at Gopal.

"What do you want to do?"

Gopal continued talking without changing his expression.

"The wolf people will not follow you. After all, their relatives are in the Wolf State, and the horse people and the bird people may not. In my opinion, you should not only obey the order, but also obey it sternly. It's just that you don't want to send those horses The people of the tribe and the bird tribe are used as cannon fodder, but in turn, they cultivate their own descendants who are truly loyal to them——"

"That's enough! Don't say this again!" Alaya yelled angrily, interrupting him.

Gopal was not angry at being interrupted, and just nodded respectfully.

"I'm just giving you a suggestion..."

"The empire is going to be in chaos, and the Tu people will not survive long in the chaos."

After saying that, he left Alaya with a gloomy and uncertain face, turned around and left the military tent alone.

Just when the empire's gray wolves were stalling due to lack of support from the Y-shaped equipment, the Yue tribe's resistance army, which was opposing 㦳, was busy sending people across the river to capture the mammoth overnight.

It is obvious that every family has its own problems, and even the seemingly prosperous Mammoth State government is having a hard time.

At the same time, new changes are brewing in the wasteland.

The morning sun of the next day had just risen from the sea in the southern waters, and the Alliance's Conch submarine surfaced in the waters near Coral City.

At this time, a small transport plane from Ideal City flew in from a distance and slowly landed on the apron on the deck of the Conch.

It was a model that Chu Guang had never seen before. It looked a bit like the Alliance's Viper. I guess it was a new thing created by the company, and maybe it was copied from the Alliance.

But in fact, it doesn't matter, Chu Guang is very open-minded.

After all, the alliance also has a lot of money to gain from enterprises. The engine of the "Overlord" transport aircraft was simply obtained from the "Orca" transport aircraft. It's not a big deal for people to reciprocate politely.

And what makes Chu Guang quite gratified is that the dead houses in Ideal City have finally come to their senses recently.

The company's board of directors probably finally realized that they were also part of the wasteland. If a madman really made things worse, they would eventually have to step in to clean up the mess.

This is exactly the trouble with the Torch Church.

If they had intervened early in the crisis in Singularity City, things would have gone far beyond the development and later spiraled out of control.

Based on reflection on their own problems, they have become more and more active in participating in affairs in the wasteland recently, and various long-range and ultra-high-speed aircraft have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain.

Soon, a middle-aged man in formal attire emerged from the cabin door.

With a bright smile on his face, he stretched out his right hand towards Chu Guang, who was standing next to the tarmac from a distance.

"Dear manager, sir, I'm glad we meet again!"
