"It's normal. Winter is often the most dangerous period. Ice and snow restrict the movement of people and animals, which will cause the alien species to hunt less food. Following biological instincts, certain fluctuations will naturally occur. In addition, the alien species have thermal sensing talents.
They are all very strong, and when the weather gets cold, it is easier to find prey. So it is not a strange thing." Yuntao analyzed.
"What you said makes sense." Su Bai nodded.
Of course, after the news was played, the screen switched to a press conference.
A bloated fat man, wearing a black suit that was about to burst, walked to the podium with a smile on his face and announced.
"Dear people, on behalf of the Longxia Kingdom Parliament, I officially announce that the winter heating in Longxia Kingdom has officially started. This time, the first level of heating covers Sky City, Steel City, and Dragon City! The second level covers Riverside City and Nanye City.
......."
Hearing this, Su Bai, Yun Tao and others all listened carefully. This was a big deal.
But after the fat man finished reading the last second-level city, he smiled and said.
"The above are the cities covered this time. Thank you to everyone for supporting Longxia Kingdom. In addition, Longxia Kingdom will open winter relief funds to subsidize all the people at the bottom and help everyone survive the winter."
"Fuck!" Ergouzi was the first to yell.
"What's wrong?" Su Bai turned to look at Er Gouzi.
"This heating system only reaches the second-level cities, so the people in the third-level cities will suffer! What the hell is going on?" Ergouzi and others complained angrily, knowing that they still have many relatives more or less.
In third-tier cities or even small towns.
Uncle Hai stroked his beard and said: "That shouldn't be the case. Longxia Kingdom has had no problem with its finances in the past few years. During the last winter, it even opened up to third-level cities. This time, it even canceled heating in third-level cities."
Huang Qi couldn't help but poke Luo Zhu.
"Hey, do you know what to order?"
"I didn't know that this was not a resolution of Dragon City. If it was a resolution of Dragon City, I might be able to hear some rumors or something. This is a resolution of the upper council, and it is all top secret."
Luo Zhu himself was confused.
The corner of Yun Tao's mouth raised slightly and he said: "This is not good news. It is estimated that starting tonight, our own country will be in partial turmoil."
Su Bai frowned and asked, "How low will the temperature drop without heating?"
"Generally speaking, cities with heating will not fall below zero at worst, but in areas without heating the temperature can even drop to more than 50 degrees below zero, which will definitely cause a large number of deaths." Yun Tao Feng Qingyun Dan said.
explained.
"Then the city below will be doomed?" The corners of Su Bai's mouth kept twitching.
"This won't happen, because every city has affiliated cities. They will seek help from their superior cities, and it's not that they themselves have no energy reserves for the winter. It's just that they can't get support from the highest government, not necessarily
We can survive, which is why Zhang Lengyue attacked the Hetu base at all costs last time. You must know that a cold winter does not end in a few months. It depends on our distance from the next star, sometimes even
It may take decades or hundreds of years. But it doesn’t matter that Dragon City has the final say in our area, and the specific policies will depend on Master Han Wei’s wishes." Yun Tao explained to Su Bai.
Su Bai nodded, he probably understood something.
In fact, just after this news was announced, the entire third-level city below almost exploded.
Emergency meetings are being held in every city.
The council hall of the administrative building of District A of Longcheng was brightly lit. Almost all the officials of Longcheng were on the way. Their faces were very ugly. No one expected that this year's winter support would be cut so drastically. They all wanted to curse.
Did those guys above get kicked in the head by a donkey? This kind of decision can also be passed in parliament.
Zhou Rui and Su Boqi met first.
Zhou Rui asked with a bad expression: "How long until Vice Chairman Han Wei arrives?"
"We returned yesterday and will probably arrive soon."
"Didn't he tell you about the heating yesterday?"
"No, he just said he would have a meeting today. I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen. I thought it would be at least the same as in previous years. This time it will be miserable."
"No matter what happens, I'll wait until Master Han Wei comes back to discuss it. I believe he will find a solution."
Su Boqi himself had no confidence in what he said.
"You don't even know that since the news was released just now, my landline phone has almost been called off! The city below is going crazy." Zhou Rui was almost going crazy.
"I understand, but now we don't know what's going on at all. Wait a minute! Mr. Han Wei has arrived. Maybe things will turn around. In the worst case, Dragon City will also subsidize the people below, and will not let the people below really
I can't survive it." Su Boqi gritted his teeth and said.
"Okay, with your words, I feel relieved."
Zhou Rui breathed a long sigh of relief.
Soon the conference hall was filled with people, but Han Wei still didn't arrive. Although everyone was very anxious, they sat quietly and waited. Everyone lowered their heads and kept sending messages to communicate with their subordinates about the latest situation, allowing them to try their best to keep calm.
situation.
At this time, several guards rushed in and whispered in Su Boqi's ear.
"Many reporters came outside, but they were all stopped."
Su Boqi touched his forehead and said to the guard: "Before Mr. Han Wei comes, no one is allowed to talk nonsense and speculate. They are also warned not to announce anything to the outside world at will. If there is any panic, they will be responsible for the consequences."
"Understood!"
Sitting aside, Zhou Rui whispered to Su Boqi: "I just received news that someone in the third-level city under the City of Steel openly criticized the parliament and was just arrested by the city lord of the City of Steel."
"Hey, I hope we don't come to this point." Su Boqi said with a sigh.
Time passed by second by second, and when the dim sunlight of dawn shone into the conference room, Han Wei still had not arrived.
Uneasiness slowly grew in the parliament hall, but even so, no one left.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open.
Everyone turned to look over and saw Vice Chairman Han Wei walking in. Everyone immediately showed expressions of joy, finally coming back.
"Lord Han Wei!"
........
Han Wei stretched out his hand to interrupt everyone and walked towards the parliament stage.
He stood on the podium and waved his hand and said: "Let the reporters come in."
He Xiang, who was following him, nodded and walked out.
Not long after, hundreds of reporters crowded in. Each of them nervously turned on their photography equipment to broadcast live.
After everything was set up, Han Wei said to everyone: "You should all have seen the council's decision regarding Winter. Don't take chances. This is a council decision and there will be no changes."
After hearing Han Wei's words, everyone present lowered their heads and fell silent.
"But this is a resolution of the parliament, and it does not mean it is a resolution of Dragon City." Han Wei suddenly changed his tone.
Zhou Rui and others looked at Han Wei nervously, and Han Wei solemnly said to everyone: "For all cities under Dragon City, whether they are small towns or third-level cities, Dragon City will be responsible to the end!"
Everyone present was excited when they heard this!
"Lord Han Wei!!!"
........
Su Boqi was also shocked. He took full responsibility for everything. How much manpower and material resources it would cost.
Han Wei raised his hand and signaled everyone to quiet down, and he began to announce: "Dragon City, Nanye City, Jiangducheng, and Shangguang City, these four cities provide self-heating according to parliamentary subsidies. As for the subordinate third-level city Hasi City,
Weinan City... All urban heating pipes have been disconnected and reconnected to the Hetu base, and the nuclear fission power plant modified there will be used to deliver heating!"
Hearing this, everyone who was paying attention to the meeting immediately cheered!
ps: I have something to do today, so I’ll do the fourth update for now, sorry!
