On the afternoon of the seventh day of the lunar month, towards dusk, Li Tianlan returned to the East Palace with Qin Weibai and Huangfu Qiushui.
The private plane landed in Nanyun, then went to the train station, took the train through Ningbian, and then to Xuanyuan City. This is actually a detour, but it is the only way to get to the edge of Xuanyuan City from Zhongzhou other than helicopters.
Still going around in circles, it was so troublesome that Li Tianlan became impatient. After seeing Xiao Mohai at the station, the first thing he asked was: "When will the airport in Xuanyuan City be completed?"
Xiao Mohai was stunned, opened his mouth subconsciously, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this will take some time."
As the car door opened, Li Tianlan got into the Rolls-Royce, which can be said to be unique in Tiannan, and said slowly: "What other troubles are there?"
"The main reason is that Annan won't let go. We have talked several times before, but the effect is not much."
Xiao Mohai said softly.
East Palace is not short of money. In fact, the airport construction plan was already being prepared before East Palace merged with Shengshi Fund. This is infrastructure construction. It is not just the airport, but also the laying of railways in Tiannan.
Even a high-speed rail linking directly to the country is now under construction.
So far, Xuanyuan City Airport has been constructed in many aspects. Some main buildings, towers and other facilities have been completed and can be operated at any time. However, what is currently not under construction at the airport is the runway.
The Xuanyuan City Airport is not large in scale. It was designed for semi-military and semi-civilian use in the early stages of construction. In terms of routes, it connects various airports such as Zhongzhou Huating, Youzhou, Zhongyuan, Nanyue, and Liaodong. There are also a few international flights, but very few.
The main reason why it has not been completed is Annan's tough attitude.
Annan does not allow Tiannan to have an airport, or even allow Tiannan to have a railway.
After the latter's strong actions in Zhongzhou, Annan tolerated it and allowed the railway to connect Ningbian and Xuanyuan City from the country. However, regarding the airport, Annan had made a strong statement before. Annan's spokesperson said that Tiannan was part of Annan's territory, and
It is clearly stated that all actions of Xuanyuan City in Tiannan are unreasonable and illegal, and it is also firmly opposed to any form of assistance from Zhongzhou to Tiannan.
They do not allow the emergence of an airport connecting Tiannan to Central Continent, and claim that when necessary, they may take extreme measures to safeguard Annan's overall interests.
Naturally, the East Palace couldn't be bothered to pay attention to such bullshit remarks, but Annan's threats were effective. In the past few years, the relationship between Zhongzhou and Tiannan has become closer and closer. Annan protested many times, and neither Zhongzhou nor the East Palace bothered to look at them.
, but Zhongzhou also doesn’t want Annan to resort to their so-called extreme measures.
If a large-scale conflict breaks out between the two sides because of Tiannan, let alone the outcome, well, let alone the outcome, there will be no suspense at all, but even if they win, it will cause very bad consequences internationally.
What Zhongzhou hopes is to seize the 40,000 square kilometers of land in Tiannan without any bloodshed. Taking it by force is completely inconsistent with Zhongzhou's interests.
So things at the airport have been dragging on.
Zhongzhou and Dong Palace have been negotiating with Ananguo. As long as the negotiations are successful and the runway is completed, Xuanyuan City's airport can be put into operation immediately.
The Eastern Palace can even fund and cooperate with Zhongzhou to establish an air force base in Xuanyuan City.
This is not a possibility.
But once the negotiation is successful, Zhongzhou will inevitably make a choice, and it is also a choice that will make Annanguo sleepless and sleepless.
The current negotiation deadlock has lasted for a long time, and both parties have stopped and are waiting for opportunities for further contact.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will push for this. We will soon have an external liaison department belonging to the East Palace. After the department is established, the East Palace will personally promote a new round of negotiations with Annan. Xuanyuan City is connected to the airport in Zhongzhou.
High-speed rail is our basic demand, and it is indeed time to speed up the process. Only when travel between Xuanyuan City and Zhongzhou becomes convenient in all aspects can we gain new opportunities for rapid development."
Xiao Mohai drove the car and chuckled: "In fact, after His Majesty ascended to the top of the God List, Annan's attitude has relaxed. Especially as we began to annex Tiandu Purgatory, Annan has begun to test us.
attitude. They also don’t want to agree to Xuanyuan City’s airport project, but in contrast, they dare not offend His Majesty. So it is very interesting now. With the rise of His Majesty, the Eastern Palace has established a foothold in Tiannan. Although they don’t want to see it
At this point, they are probably already prepared to lose Tiannan. As long as they are mentally prepared, many things can be discussed."
"This year it will all be pretty much settled."
Qin Weibai suddenly said: "The alliance formed by Beihai against us will not delay for too long. As long as we do not fail this time, after the matter is over, Annan will no longer have the courage to plot in Tiannan. A new round of negotiations
, It’s best to start at that time, at the worst, we can give Annan some money, follow the example of the Wang family in Beihai at the beginning, and buy the land in Tiannan. How to grasp the timing, Lao Xiao, please keep an eye on it.”
"Okay ma'am."
Xiao Mohai nodded instinctively. He could relax in front of Li Tianlan, but facing Qin Weibai, he subconsciously felt an instinctive respect.
Through the rearview mirror, he glanced at Huangfu Qiushui, who had not spoken since getting in the car, and smiled proactively: "Special Assistant Huangfu, the deputy palace masters should have sent you the list of the internal security forces, right? You
It needs to be reviewed and candidates for some key positions in the internal defense force determined. If you have any questions, you can communicate with me at any time."
Huangfu Qiushui nodded quietly, very reserved and reserved: "Okay, thank you."
Xiao Mohai smiled and was about to say something more when Qin Weibai's cell phone suddenly rang.
Xiao Mohai shut up at the right time.
Qin Weibai took out his phone and glanced at the screen.
The caller ID on the screen is marked with a very special symbol.
Qin Weibai narrowed his eyes subconsciously, thought for a while, then answered the phone and said hello.
"I've found a lot of clues recently."
A neither salty nor cool voice rang on the phone, it was the voice of a middle-aged man: "But there are too many clues, but there is nothing useful. These clues can be said to be all useless, or they can be said to be useful. Their
I can't be sure until the operation starts. But what is certain is that there must be more than one entry point we are looking for. Their so-called alliance is using very strong power this time, and the situation is a bit tricky."
Qin Weibai listened silently for a long time, then gave a faint hum.
"Is there anything else I need to do?"
On the phone, the voice continued to speak.
"Pay attention to protect yourself."
Qin Weibai said calmly: "There is no need to take risks."
"Is Your Majesty sure this time?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time before asking in a low voice.
Qin Weibai smiled. He could hear the other party's worry and sincerity without any impurities. Her voice became softer: "What do you want to say?"
"Actually, there is no need to find their entry point. This is not important at all. If their alliance can be directly reduced in number, will this help His Majesty better?"
Qin Weibai's pupils shrank.
She recalled the extremely luxurious roster in the league, and her voice was calm: "Attrition? You mean..."
"I can kill Kuangtu Li."
On the phone, the voice without any ups and downs of emotions said something groundbreaking: "It's easy. It can be done at any time. Do you need me to take action?"
