A century after retirement, a post-apocalyptic tycoon is forced to find new employment.
Chapter 153 That’s the statue of an idol
A daughter of the Sun family in Beijing married into the Ye family, a top family. With the Ye family's influence, it has expanded rapidly in recent years, and its behavior is inevitably a little domineering.
The Sun family will try their best to win over anyone they like, whether they want it or not. If they can't win over them, they would rather destroy them than let outsiders get away.
A few years ago, there was a powerful supernatural being who was unable to win over the Sun family. Instead, he was injured and wanted, forcing him to remain anonymous.
Therefore, Ji Ning must not be thought by the Sun family that she has no backer.
The Sun family may not be afraid of the Lin family, but if the Bai family is included, the Sun family will also have to weigh it. After all, there is the Fu family behind the Bai family.
Lin Yuanyang returned to the capital this time just to hook up Ji Ning with the Bai family.
Bai Yusen's eyes flashed with light, and he looked at Lin Yuanyang a few times, "Save you? Could it be that your..."
I didn't say anything later.
Lin Yuanyang nodded slightly.
Bai Yusen had a hint of surprise on his face, and couldn't help but feel happy for him. After all, he had watched him grow up, so the relationship between the two was naturally unusual. He had known about Lin Yuanyang's problems for a long time, but because it was the Lin family's housework He couldn't interfere in the matter, so he could only help behind the scenes.
"Is this what you asked me to buy for you before?"
Lin Yuanyang nodded again.
The joy on Bai Yusen's face came to the end of his eyes this time, and he patted his shoulder, "Congratulations."
"Yeah." Lin Yuanyang also had a smile on his face.
"Where does this Ji Ning come from? It's really confusing." Bai Yusen asked.
Although Lin Yuanyang had a good relationship with Bai Yusen, he would not reveal Ji Ning's details to him. He shook his head and said, "No matter where she comes from, she has no ill intentions toward us."
Bai Yusen smiled and said nothing in front of him. He looked out the car window, thinking about what Ji Ning had said to him before.
In the car in front, Bai Xiaotang was like a chirping bird, introducing the capital to Ji Ning.
The current capital city is built according to the inner and outer cities. Although there is no city wall separating the two areas, people from the outer city need special passes to enter the inner city.
There are also obvious differences in the architecture of the two areas. The further you go into the inner city, the more obvious the urbanization becomes. The buildings are tall, the glass is bright, the streets are spacious, and the roads are clean. Even at night, the buildings in the inner city are brightly lit.
However, the buildings in the outer city are generally lower than those in the inner city, and there are no landmark buildings. Viewed from a high altitude, the outer city is like a ring, tightly wrapping the inner city and radiating outwards in circles, even on the outer edge. Farmland was also seen in the place.
The two places are only a thousand miles apart, like two worlds, separated by the potential levels of the capital.
Although the airport is not built on the edge of Beijing, it is also outside the outer city.
The land is vast and sparsely populated. There are no tall buildings around, except for the expressway and the subway.
You can also see some farmland next to the highway.
"There is a farm here at home where we grow a lot of fruits. It's a pity that we only took one day off, otherwise we could go pick them." Bai Xiaotang pointed to the dark place outside, feeling a little regretful.
Ji Ning said "hmm".
Thinking of Li Jingjing's reluctant expression when asking for leave during the day.
It may be difficult to ask for leave in the future.
The car drove for more than two hours before entering the city. The journey from the outer city to the inner city allowed Ji Ning to witness the prosperity of Huazhou Capital 120 years later.
She was in a trance, as if the scene back then was like a dream.
Is this the center of power in China now?
"Sister Ning, look, that's the idol's statue."
Bai Xiaotang pointed to the car window next to him and shouted in surprise.
Ji Ning turned around and saw a two-meter-tall female statue standing in front of a majestic building.
The statue is in a standing position, holding a gun in one hand, the muzzle of the gun pointing to the ground, and the other hand hanging by his leg, slightly clenching his fist.
Her expression was serious, her eyes looking straight ahead, as if there were thousands of troops ahead, and she was the patron saint standing at the front, protecting everyone.
Ji Ning glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze.
She is much calmer now. If she had seen such a statue when she first came here, she would have been furious and wanted to dig up the coffins of her three younger brothers all night long.
but now……
Haha... "The building behind the idol is the Alliance Conference Center, symbolizing the highest power in China."
Ji Ning nodded slightly, her thoughts already drifting away.
That war-torn era.
There were rags and rags everywhere, and I was lucky to have a safe place to stay.
In order to establish the Huazhou Safe Zone, in addition to the forces of her and her three younger brothers, of course there are also other forces in Huazhou.
They need to unite and unify the outside world in order to protect the land and people of Huazhou.
Because the enemies in the troubled times include not only mutant beasts and mutant corpses, but also forces from other continents.
In troubled times, heroes emerge. Everyone wants to be the boss, and everyone wants to be the hegemon. However, internal competition is Huazhou's own business.
It is absolutely impossible to allow people from other continents to take the opportunity to seize land in China.
Every Chinese person values their homeland deeply in their bones. They would rather give up their rights than throw away the homeland left by their ancestors.
It was precisely this belief and obsession that made her gradually change from the person in charge of the Anhe Safety Zone to the talkative person in the Huazhou Safety Zone, and became a powerful person that other continents feared.
Even if she doesn't want to have such a high status, her ability is there and she must bear the responsibility.
"Sister Ning... Sister Ning..."
Ji Ning gradually recovered her thoughts. Bai Xiaotang beside her had an excited face and shook her arm with one hand.
"Sister Ning, my home is in front of you."
Bai Xiaotang pointed to the villa area on higher ground not far away.
The villa looks very old, as if it has a history of more than 100 years.
Ji Ning was startled, "Is this your home?"
"Yes." Bai Xiaotang nodded heavily, "Sister Ning, my room is on the second floor. You can see the stars at night. I will take you to see it later."
Bai Xiaotang was so focused on going home that he didn't notice the strange expression on Ji Ning's face.
Compared with the high-rise buildings in the inner city, the villa area where the Bai family is located seems a bit low-key and simple, and even its appearance has a certain sense of age.
But when you look closer, you can see the luxury of this villa area.
Both the masonry used for paving the floor and the materials used to build the villa area are not ordinary bricks and tiles, but high-grade masonry mixed with dragon stone powder.
This material has a certain degree of defense against even cannonball attacks.
Moreover, there is a very strong air-raid shelter under the villa area, which can be used for people to hide and even move out of the capital.
This was built by several forces when the Huazhou Provisional Alliance was first established.
Because they wanted to guard against artillery fire from other continental forces, they mixed all the building materials they built at that time with Longyan powder.
This villa area is one of the buildings built at that time.
Ji Ning stayed here when he came to the capital for a meeting.
It's just that the place where the Bai family lives is not the same house she lived in back then.
"Whose house is that?" Ji Ning got out of the car and pointed to a single-family villa dozens of meters away from Bai's house.
Although that villa is the same as the villa next to it, there is a pine tree as thick as two people planted inside the villa. The branches are so high that they reach the second-story windows.
Bai Xiaotang lowered his voice: "From Xiaoyang's family."
Ji Ning raised her eyebrows but said nothing more.
Lin?
What a coincidence...
I have to go to work tomorrow, and Su Su's manuscripts are already in a hurry. The next update may not be at a fixed time. If there is no update by 10 o'clock in the evening, I will take one day off and will make up for it on the weekend.Thank you for your support as you continue to read~
