Chapter 1388 Majority or Minority (Part 2)

It has been a long time. Alpha has been sitting on the bench without speaking. It can be seen that she is still having an extremely intense ideological conflict. Suli picked up the leaves in her hands and sat next to Alpha with a smile on her face.

"It's precisely because they are your parents that you don't want to ask them for help. After all, your contribution to the Angus family over the years has been basically zero, isn't it, little princess?"

Alpha looked at Su Li. Su Li was very smart. She had always been like this and could understand things quickly. Although Alpha didn't want to admit it, he still nodded.

"Coupled with your idiot sister who is called a loser by the outside world, the two daughters of the Angus family are beyond description!"

Su Li chuckled, and after noticing Alpha's dissatisfied look, Su Li put away her smile.

"I'm not here to attack your Alpha. If I have two daughters in my family, I will be very tired as a parent. Don't doubt it. I am much older than you after all, and I have watched you grow up. You are too willful. You should have known what kind of situation your parents were in these years. As the section chief, you should have used some power to help your family, but you did nothing. Looking at it, it turns out that it was trained by Mr. Jean.”

Alpha frowned slightly, with a hint of anger on his face. He casually held up the blade in his hand, turned it, and then stretched his limbs comfortably.

"Don't forget that I am also a member of the family, and so are you. In the past, you tried your best to distance yourself from the family, so you have been strictly self-disciplined in everything you do, and even made actions that hurt your family. Your parents, Your sister."

The anger on Alpha's face disappeared. Although what Suli said was harsh, this is what Alpha has done over the years.

"So you have been living back home for these years, and you have finally realized that no matter how far a person goes or how high he climbs, there is always a place where no matter when you go back, you can always be treated with tenderness. , this place is called home.”

Alpha took out a cigarette, lit it and took a puff. She slowly exhaled the smoke.

"Why did you come here and talk to me so much?"

"It is true that I am quite annoying in most people's impressions. You have hated me since you were very young. I know this, but after that, your impression of me may have changed, because you You find that your sister and I are very close, do you think it's strange that the me you used to think would take the initiative to approach your useless sister who is known to the outside world? "

Alpha nodded and said.

"It's true Su Li, I hate you very much. I have since a long time ago. You are just like most businessmen."

Su Li hummed.

"That's for sure. Have you ever seen a businessman cut off his own arm?"

Alpha shook his head.

"Indeed I haven't seen it before."

It is becoming increasingly difficult for Alpha to understand Suli. According to her standards, it is impossible for a businessman to lend a helping hand to the Angus family in trouble. However, when the Angus family was in the most difficult time, Suli took the initiative to come and lend a helping hand. I gave the money to my parents, and of course I earned a lot of interest afterwards.

And every time her sister has a problem, Su Li will go to her sister immediately, take her to have a good meal, and play with her for a few days before coming back. In Alpha's eyes, Su Li is more like a naughty girl. Children are always confusing.

This sometimes utilitarian, sometimes well-intentioned way of doing things makes Alpha confused. She always feels like she does things according to her mood.

"Let's go, I'll accompany you in."

Su Li said and tried to pull Alpha up, but Alpha shook his head.

"I don't know what to say to them."

"Even if you can't open your mouth anymore, things have already happened. If you don't solve it, you should know how serious the situation will be. But if the Angus family takes action this time, it is very likely that they will go bankrupt. This is something you can't open your mouth to The reason is that other businessmen don’t care about the lives of those mutants.”

Su Li reluctantly patted Alpha on the shoulder.

"You are a role model in Brilliant City, so you have to do something. Come on, get up quickly."

Alpha was still sitting and still didn't get up.

"Why you came here obviously has nothing to do with you."

Su Li raised her head with a soft expression, enjoying the sunlight shining on her cheeks.

"There were times when I was in pain and confusion, but there was always a kind and kind uncle who came to enlighten me. It's just that that uncle was no longer around, and I didn't know until a long time after he passed away."

Alpha was a little surprised, Su Li smiled and pulled Alpha up.

"gone."

Su Li said, dragging Alpha up, and the two came to the door. Su Li directly pressed the convex crystal next to the door, and a light and shadow screen appeared.

"The princess is back, come and open the door quickly."

Alpha turned his head angrily. At this time, the butler Micah on the screen was a little happy, but also confused.

After a while, the door opened, and the housekeeper and several servants of the Angus family looked at each other.

"Miss, why did you go through the main entrance?"

Su Li held her stomach and laughed.

“Isn’t it common sense to go through the front door?”

Alpha walked in awkwardly, and Micah walked up to Alpha.

"Miss, is there something wrong? The master and his wife are working in the fields."

"Where's Niya?"

Micah smiled helplessly.

"I haven't woken up yet. I played games until dawn last night."

Su Li laughed. Since Nia came back, she basically spent her days playing games, exercising, eating and sleeping. She often lived a life of day and night. Su Li came several times.

"How can I describe this feeling! By the way, it's like a primary school student wants something he likes, but he has no money in his pocket. He can only go home to ask his parents for it, but he is also worried because it is very expensive and his parents may not be able to afford it, right!"

After hearing what Su Li said, Micah thought about it for a while and seemed to understand the purpose of Alpha's return.

"I'll go and inform the lady and the master first. Miss, do you want to eat anything? It's almost 11 o'clock."

Alpha shook his head, and Su Li talked about what he wanted to eat.

After sitting down in the living room, Alpha's face was very bad. Su Li was taking pictures and videos on the side. After all, Alpha's embarrassment is not seen on weekdays.

"Can you be quiet? You are always like a child. Aren't you older than me, Su Li?"

Su Li shook her head.

"What's wrong with being a child, Alpha? Your sister is more talented than you. She has something you don't have, and this thing is very important to everyone."

"Su Li, you're here! I was just planning to find you. We agreed to take me to the Phoebus Resort Hotel for a few days. Don't regret it if you treat me."

Su Li made an OK gesture to Nia who came down from upstairs in a daze. After Nia came down, she yawned with half-closed eyes and scratched her body. She jumped directly onto the sofa and sat down. Only then did she notice that her sister had returned.

"Sister, why are you back?"

Alpha sighed.

"First..."

Before she finished speaking, Nia reached out and took out a pack of cigarettes from Alpha's pocket. After lighting one, she stretched her legs comfortably and rested them on the table, looking comfortable.

Looking at Niya, Alpha seemed to realize what Suli said. What Niya had, he didn't have. Alpha knew this a long time ago, but people always grow up and can't be children forever. It's just that seeing Suli and Niya already talking about how to play at Phoebus Resort Hotel, the two were as excited as children and kept talking.

"Why don't we just book a place and find a few friends to go together, Suli!"

"You're dreaming, who will pay for this?"

Niya looked at Alpha with a smile.

"Sister, do you want to go with us?"

"I think it would be better for you to go with us, after this matter is resolved."

Niya was puzzled.

"What's the matter?"

At this time, the Angus couple came back. As soon as the two came in, there was a smell of soil floating in. Violet looked at her eldest daughter sitting on the sofa. As soon as she came in, Alpha was obviously nervous. She immediately figured out what it was, but didn't say it immediately. After all, she was her own child. No matter how talented Alpha was, Violet knew everything about her.

"Alpha, is there anything you can't solve? Relax."

Avano walked over, and Nia stood up with a smile.

"Dad, can you give me some money?"

Nia said as she hugged Avano's neck. Alpha was a little surprised. Nia would never do such a close gesture to her parents before.

"If you dare to spend money again, I will break your hand!"

Violet said immediately. Nia left her father with a smile and ran to Su Li.

"I will spend 1,000 yuan to buy some gold coins and props!"

Violet sat next to Alpha.

"If you want to say something, just say it clearly. Don't be so shameless. Alpha, this family doesn't owe you anything."

Avano hurriedly winked at his wife. Alpha hummed, but still didn't speak, still holding on.

"What's the matter?"

Nia asked, Su Li turned on a light and shadow screen, and soon Nia was stunned.

"I slept for a while and something good happened. I have to go out for a while."

"What are you going to do?"

Alpha stared at her sister angrily.

"Of course I'm going to protest. Many mutants can't find jobs now. Can't they protest? It's all because of the regulation issued by Congress."

The atmosphere at the scene became a little solemn, and Violet looked at Alpha.

"Is it so difficult for you to speak up? Alpha, we are not your enemies, are we?"

Alpha was a little moved for a while. She didn't know where to put her hands, and Violet held her hands.

"Sorry!"

Alpha said dully. The couple guessed what their daughter was going to do. Avano called up a light and shadow screen, which was a cross-section of the Brilliant City. Now the only place where Angus construction has not moved is the north.

For the relatively weak economy and small population in the north, although it is also within the scope of the construction plan, there is no subway from bottom to top, and many mines in the north have been abandoned.

Except for some elderly people, there are almost no young people living at the bottom of the society in the north. Only the three areas where the headquarters of Sections 3 and 5 are located are relatively lively, while the other areas are dead.

Alpha was still silent, with everything from childhood to adulthood in her mind. She kept asking her parents for things, although this kind of asking was passive, and she didn't even help her parents. Many things even made her parents worry about her. Alpha felt very guilty, so she couldn't speak.

If the construction in the north started, the steady pace of the Angus family's construction would be disrupted, and some upper areas under construction might also have problems. In addition, the Angus family might fall into a situation of heavy debt, so Alpha couldn't speak.

"If you don't speak, we don't know anything, Alpha."

Violet said, Alpha nodded, and Nia seemed to understand something at this time.

"Sister, tell me what to do."

Alpha looked at Nia, and Su Li nodded.

"I hope our family construction can start in the north, and the target of recruitment is mutants."

Violet nodded.

"What's the plan?"

Alpha shook her head, she looked at her mother, and just as she was about to say sorry, she was hugged by her mother.

"Just do it, Alpha. Just come back every day. I am your mother, Alpha. No matter what you have suffered outside, just come back."

Avano walked over with a smile, and Nia curled her lips.

"Mom, what about me? You are also..."

Su Li grabbed Nia and shook her head.

After a while, the embarrassment on Alpha's face disappeared. Avano called up the construction drawings in the north. All renovations and constructions need to start from scratch. It is impossible to invest too much at one time, and there are risks in the construction of the north.

"If we want Angus Construction to build in the north, Congress must agree to us to follow our progress, not the demand of the city."

Alpha nodded, and Su Li pulled Nia up.

"What for?"

"You don't have to participate. Let's go to the plantation and pick some vegetables."

Nia could only follow Su Li out.

12:39

The number of mutants in Area 1 was significantly reduced. Many mutants left Area 1 directly and went to some areas in the middle to eat, but it was obvious that they would not leave before getting a satisfactory answer.

Many Section 5 officers patrolling the streets and Section 3 officers on standby in some places breathed a sigh of relief at this time. The tense atmosphere in the morning disappeared, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Some mutants brought their own liquid food and ate in some alleys on the street. Most of the mutants were still unwilling to leave. Everyone wanted to wait for the result before leaving. This time, many mutants felt a little indescribable because the Operations Department actually took the initiative to lift the blockade.

At this time, a piece of light and shadow screen appeared on the street. Many people noticed that the light and shadow screen was not in the room, but on a piece of emerald green lawn.

"It's Angus's house!"

Someone exclaimed, and soon a woman appeared on the screen.

"Good afternoon, dear citizens. I am Violet Angus. I just want to tell you one thing. Just now, our Angus family has signed a contract with Congress for the full construction of the north, and the target of recruitment is mutants."

After just a few seconds, the streets of District 1 were boiling, and many mutants cheered.

"But as you can see, our Angus family is still carrying out the construction of most areas of the city, so this full construction is proceeding slowly. The number of workers we recruited in the first batch is 50,000, and the recruited workers are all mutants. But there is one thing that our Angus family must make clear. The work that can be settled for mutants can only be between 2,000 and 3,000 a month, which is the salary of ordinary workers in the city. If you are willing to accept it, you can go to Angus Construction to sign up today, and the date of construction will be set within this month!"

For a while, many mutants cheered. Although the salary is indeed not as good as before, many mutants have not worked for several months and can only continue to find jobs in the city to find a way out. However, as the situation in the city gets worse and worse, many mutants can't find a job at all.

"Finally, I want to say something to everyone in the city. According to the current situation of our Angus family, rashly starting construction in the north will only increase our burden, but there is no way. My daughter Alpha Angus has asked us. As her mother, I just want to say one thing to everyone. Please stay calm and rational when encountering any problems. Don't disrupt the city's public security and don't add more work pressure to my daughter." The scene immediately switched to the General Affairs Department. Locke smiled and began to explain the TV statement just issued by the Angus family in more detail. At this time, people on the street began to flow. Most mutants left Area 1 and wanted to go to the middle-level Angus Construction. Many mutants knew that as long as they could work now, it would be fine, and many ordinary people in the city didn't know what to say at this time. Some businessmen gathered at this time, because the economy in the north has been bad, and now this is a great opportunity. Many businessmen began to discuss what kind of business activities to apply for. Some people who have left the north and still have houses in the north got on the car heading to the north directly. "This time the Angus family is finished, don't you think so, wise man!"

Ran Zhi looked at the news in disbelief. He really couldn't understand why Violet would make such a stupid decision. Just because her daughter went to her for help, she could push the whole family into the abyss.

Ran Zhi didn't speak, but sighed. He knew this feeling very well in his heart, because this was a request from a loved one. Although there were great risks, parents would know very well because parents would never ignore their children.

Ran Zhi looked at Eddie who couldn't help laughing. He couldn't understand this feeling.

"Prometheus, quickly calculate and arrange the next plan."

"Got it, Lord Eddie!"

A mechanical voice sounded in the room. Ran Zhi knew very well that if the Angus family started construction, they would have to pay a salary of up to 100 million a month, and this was based on the lowest 2,000 yuan. According to the current situation of the Angus family, the revenue was not proportional. Although Congress would tilt part of the tax revenue to the Angus family, this was just a drop in the bucket for the huge northern construction that was about to begin.

"Are these guys' brains broken?"

Just as Ran Zhi was thinking, he looked at the light and shadow screen. The latest news on it was that the eight major associations announced some decisions at the same time.

The Industrial Association decided that some member companies of the Industrial Association would produce a batch of construction tools to support the construction in the north, and these construction tools were free to support the construction of Angus's home.

The Clothing Association will provide a large number of labor protection equipment made from raw crop fiber parts, and the Food Association also promised to open some free food distribution points in the area every day to supply workers involved in the construction.

The Law Association promised to help some mutants solve some of their current legal problems and provide free lawyer services.

The Construction Association provided some houses in the north under the Construction Association for free to the mutants who were working, and the Medical Association would set up some free medical points near the construction site to provide some mutants with free medical care.

The Education Association will waive most of the tuition fees for the children of mutants with families, and the Film and Entertainment Association will provide a large number of free programs for mutants who are working, without paying.

Eddie looked at everything in front of him in disbelief, and he sat down.

"These guys must have a problem with their brains."

But Ran Zhi shook his head soon.

"It's not that they have a problem with their brains, but because everyone is a vested interest. If you think about it carefully, you will understand."

Eddie seemed to realize something, and Ran Zhi stood up and said with a smile.

"The Industrial Association provides free construction tools, otherwise it will receive some orders from the Operations Department, and if they provide them for free, it will be a good advertising effect. If the tools are made of light and shadow materials, they can also be recycled in the future, and the stock prices of these companies that provide free tools will definitely rise sharply in the future."

As Ran Zhi said this, Eddie seemed to react. Now the situation of Hillman Grain Industry is the most embarrassing, and he immediately understood it.

"Wu Qun, that bastard."

Ran Zhi nodded.

"This move is too cruel. I'm afraid that the Operations Department and the councillors will isolate Hillman Grain Industry. What will be the reputation of you in the city? You can't participate in the free food distribution. The councillors and the Operations Department will not allow it. You can only suffer in silence. How will the citizens who don't know the truth look at you?"

As for the free medical care provided by the Medical Association, most of them are muscle strains and other diseases. For mutants, it is just a small favor, but it is enough to let the Medical Association, which has already gone bankrupt, regain some face.

As for the approach of the Clothing Association, there are only benefits, because Ran Zhi knows with his ass that it is definitely provided by Su Li. Those plant fiber clothes that were originally going to be made into some polyester, Su Li can definitely get some food channels.

The approach of the Construction Association is inevitable, because if the construction starts, the Angus family will inevitably have a very large trade relationship with most of the companies in the Real Estate Association, and those businessmen who provide free housing will definitely be able to cooperate with Angus Construction first.

Ran Zhi also thought clearly about the Bar Association's approach. In the past, in Tianhen's case, the whole nation condemned those so-called black-hearted lawyers. Through this situation, those black-hearted lawyers can help mutants and change some people's views on them.

Ran Zhi felt that the approach of the Education Association was a bit inappropriate, but after careful consideration, it could still benefit some educational schools. As long as they took the name of taking care of the children of mutants, they could attract some attention. Even in the distribution of educational funds in some areas, it was said that those schools with many children of mutants would definitely receive subsidies.

The actions of the Film and Television Entertainment Association seemed to be a loss, but the Film and Television Entertainment Association seemed to have made a big move recently, and Ran Zhi was not clear about the specifics. The only thing he knew was that the Jiang family might have reached some kind of agreement with the Action Department.

"Don't think about it anymore, let it go, Eddie, life is so interesting, but I am very interested in the guy who can come up with this method and mobilize all eight associations. Such means can not only stimulate the people's hearts and the city's economy, but also bring benefits to the eight associations. Such talents are really geniuses among geniuses."

Ran Zhi searched and recalled carefully. There was no such person with such talent in the Operations Department. Even Alpha, who was called a genius, did not have such ability.

"Who is it?"

1:29 p.m.

King Xue pressed his glasses and looked at the councilors and the heads of the Operations Department under the stage. He was still talking about the diversity of this plan and the unprecedented good business prospects that could be brought to everyone.

The people under the stage smiled again. After finishing speaking, King Xue bowed slightly.

"Okay, everyone, I just hope that you will not make any mistakes after returning. After all, this solution seems to me to be the most reasonable."

Many people stood up excitedly at once. Locke breathed a sigh of relief. The councilors left the room directly and prepared to return to their respective places to start work. Locke walked to the stage and patted King Xue on the back.

"Thanks to you."

Looking at the expressions of his former classmates at this time, King Xue said with a smile.

"Don't be so embarrassed, we are all old classmates. I am just a bystander, so I can see it more clearly than everyone else. Okay, I hope that everyone can strictly follow the strategy just set and don't have any problems. The next step we should solve is the problem of mutants going berserk and ordinary people carrying alien genes going berserk."

"Hey, you are still the same as before, always using dirty tricks to solve problems."

Latis smiled and jumped up. At this time, the section chiefs all ran up and surrounded King Xue.

"Okay, everyone, it's been a long time since we had dinner together. Let's have a drink together later!"

King Xue said, looking at Duan Kong who was also happy, but his eyes were bitter.
