Along the way, Su Mo stared blankly at the colorful holographic advertisements and the endless crowds of people below.
I was a little lost in thought for a while.
By the time Su Mo came to his senses, the flying car had already entered the high wall of the center of the imperial capital and arrived behind the highest parliament building in the central area.
Here lies a simple and solemn courtyard that is incompatible with the modern city.
Tang Qin parked the car at the door, then got out of the car and walked to the other door, opening the door for Su Mo with her own hands.
"Lord Su Mo, we've arrived."
Su Mo walked down slowly. He looked at the courtyard in front of him and was very curious.
Chairman Longming's taste is really very good.
"Master Su Mo, please come with me."
Tang Qin led Su Mo inside.
The guarding soldiers on the side remained motionless and did not interfere, just like stone statues.
Walking into the courtyard, the fresh air rushed towards you, as if you were in a quiet mountain. You must know that the air index in the Imperial Capital has always been very bad.
The road in the house is paved with irregular cobblestones, and there are green trees on both sides, blocking the sunlight above the head.
Su Mo followed Tang Qin all the way inside, as if walking through a quiet path.
After a long time, Su Mo saw a redwood house in front of him.
"This is where the Chairman of Longming Council usually rests."
"Um."
Su Mo nodded slightly and made some calculations in his mind. The entire courtyard was at least a hundred acres in size. How much was it worth in a place like the Imperial Capital where every inch of land was precious?
Tang Qin took Su Mo inside and then entered a room.
The room was empty except for retro cabinets.
Su Mo looked at Tang Qin with confusion.
"Where is the Chairman of Longming Council?"
Tang Qin smiled and took out a bathrobe from the side and handed it to Su Mo.
"Did you see the back door of the room? Chairman Long Ming is right behind it. You can go over after changing into your yukata. I'll take my leave now."
Before Su Mo could react, Tang Qin withdrew and closed the door.
Su Mo showed a helpless look. He quickly put on his bathrobe and opened the back door with some anxiety.
Instantly, the hot mist rushed towards my face.
A natural hot spring caught Su Mo's eyes.
I saw an amiable old man soaking in the hot spring, with a small white towel on his forehead.
Su Mo had actually seen Long Ming on TV, but when he saw him in real life, he didn't recognize him.
"Come down quickly, the hot spring temperature is particularly comfortable today."
Long Ming invited with a smile.
"Yes, Lord Longming Parliament."
Su Mo responded quickly and immediately entered the hot spring.
Long Ming smiled and said: "It's not working time now, so you don't need to be so formal. You can just call me by my name."
"Don't dare."
Su Mo replied with a serious look, joking that Chairman Longming could be amiable, but he couldn't be ignorant.
Long Ming smiled and did not dwell on this issue. Instead, he chatted with Su Mo like a kind elder.
"After all these years of recuperation at that base, are you still used to it?"
"I'm getting used to it quite well, but it's really boring. The area for activities every day is limited."
Su Mo couldn't help but complain.
"Haha, that old man Pusov has always been old-fashioned. It's normal not to let you go out to get some air. I've worked hard on you in the past few years."
Long Ming said with a smile on his face.
"Ahem, it actually doesn't matter. Commander Pusov has been pretty good to me. Within the rules, he didn't restrict me much."
Su Mo scratched his head and replied.
"Let's not talk about that. In fact, I made preparations to receive you in person five years ago. I didn't expect it to take so long."
Long Ming said with some emotion.
"This is not what I saw."
Su Mo became less reserved and gradually started chatting freely.
"Yes, I did see it. But it's a little different from what I imagined, but it feels better."
Long Ming smiled and praised.
"Your Majesty, you are too complimentary."
Su Mo was also a little flattered.
"I don't have to praise you. In fact, during the expedition, Li Ruiqi has been reporting to me about your situation. I have seen all your performances, and they are more and more amazing every time! And it's not just Li Ruiqi who praises you endlessly, Sibo
The Vice-President of Germany is also very optimistic about you, and even the Vice-President of Augustolas has very pertinent recognition of your strength. Being recognized by so many people is enough to explain everything."
Chairman Longming Council said to Su Mo frankly.
"Actually, I didn't do anything, I just did what I could."
Su Mo replied humbly.
Long Ming smiled and said, "You don't have to be so humble. If you hadn't turned the tide in the end, the Federation wouldn't be what it is today."
At this moment, Tang Qin walked in.
She said respectfully: "President of the Parliament, everything is ready."
"Um."
Long Ming nodded slightly.
Then he smiled at Su Mo and said, "Follow me."
Su Mo quickly stood up and followed Long Ming out of the hot spring.
After a while, Su Mo changed his clothes and followed Long Ming and Tang Qin to his private office.
The moment he entered, Su Mo saw a brand new general uniform on Long Ming's desk, with a transfer letter on it.
There is also a special bank card next to it.
Long Ming picked up the bank card and handed it to Su Mo: "It's for you."
"This is?"
Su Mo asked with a puzzled look.
"There are 2 billion star coins here, take it and spend it, you deserve it."
Long Ming said with a smile.
When Su Mo heard this, his eyes widened.
"So many? This is inappropriate, Speaker, isn't it?"
"There is nothing inappropriate. The Demun Empire compensated 3 billion star coins, 2 billion for you and 1 billion for me. We divided it."
Long Ming said with a smile, as if he was dividing the spoils.
Su Mo's expression suddenly became very exciting and he looked at the bank card in his hand.
"Is this compensation?"
"Yes, that's right. When I asked for 10 billion star coins, the Demuen Empire was too stingy and refused to give it out. It also wanted people, so I asked Emperor Gaumotos to come forward. I thought I could provide some money to pass the time.
Son, it’s just a daydream. If it weren’t for the fact that it’s not the time for a full-scale civil war to break out, I would definitely let them keep the money to organize funerals for their own people.”
Long Ming said with a smile.
When Su Mo heard this, he felt a chill in his back. He could feel that Chairman Longming Council really planned to do this.
"I am also paying attention to this matter and have been in a stalemate for many years."
Su Mo responded awkwardly.
"The stalemate has lasted for many years. That's because after discounts, the Demun Empire still couldn't raise that much money, which is why it only raised so much money recently."
Long Ming responded with a smile.
"Sir Long Ming, it's not appropriate for me to hold this money."
"There is nothing inappropriate. Just treat this money as compensation to you. I will use the remaining 1 billion star coins to compensate all the people who died."
