Chapter 989

The opportunities in life often change in an instant.

Juan was a bit confused, but with some excitement about the future, he returned home in a daze. The factory didn't need him now.

His mother saw him come back and immediately greeted him, "Why did you come back so early?"

Her face was full of worry.

She hadn't lived a good life for many days, and she didn't want all of this to be just a short landscape in life; she hoped that all of this could continue forever.

Juan turned to look at his mother, looking at the slightly nervous expression on her face, and exhaled, "Don't worry, it's not a bad thing."

He walked to the chair and sat down. His mother immediately brought him a glass of water.

Very clean water.

The former New Federal Center, which is the current lease area, has many federal people living here. They are not used to drinking water directly from the river, nor are they used to drinking groundwater directly.

So the first thing Lansi built was a water plant. Now this water plant provides filtered tap water for buildings within the lease.

However, it is not sweet, unlike the water in the Federation, which is sweet, although he can also do it.

In the current Lapa, Zhuolan, people sometimes ask questions like "Do you have the opportunity to drink tap water?" when chatting.

This is not really asking whether the people around them can really drink tap water, but asking whether they have been selected by the federal company and have been assigned a house in the residential area.

There are also a large number of residences being built. Lansi flattened the slums of eight square kilometers and built a commercial center on the area of about two or three square kilometers closest to the city center.

Then outward are various supporting blocks, until the outermost periphery, those lands that were originally suburbs, are used to build various ordinary apartments.

Buildings of twelve to fifteen stories rose from the ground. The world once again witnessed what is called "Federal Speed." Steel-structured buildings have advantages that other structures cannot compare with in terms of construction speed.

In a backward place like Lapa, people see those high-rise buildings built quickly, as if they saw God's miracle!

More Lapa people moved into these apartments. Now those who join the company can only get the opportunity to live in a sixty-square-meter apartment by spending money.

However, these apartments are also for sale, and the price of each set is one thousand dollars.

With the ability of these Lapa workers, they need to work for about twenty years without eating or drinking to afford an apartment. Currently, only a very small number of people have bought apartments at their own expense. Most people still get a job first, and then move in.

Being able to move into an apartment is already a class leap in the eyes of ordinary Lapa people.

There is electricity supplied twenty-four hours a day, and tap water supplied twenty-four hours a day. A civilized life is so beautiful, so sweet, and makes people reluctant to leave here.

After Juan's family moved in, their life immediately changed. Juan's salary is not low, in Lapa.

Because he was the tenth "employee" to register personal information, in order to set up this example, he was in a management position.

He could get an income of more than ten dollars every month, which is between two and three times that of ordinary workers.

His mother and his sisters also lived a happy life because of him.

So the family hoped that all of this would not change.

His mother held the plate and looked at him eagerly, which made Juan only take a small sip of water, and had to put down the cup to explain, "Mr. White gave me a new job."

"New job?", his mother exclaimed, "Did your income increase or decrease?"

Juan was a bit helpless; his mother only cared about his income situation, not his new job.

He explained, "It increased; now my income is twenty-five dollars."

He looked at the smile on his mother's face, and he seemed to be infected by it, and also showed a smile, "But this job is not easy to do."

"Mr. White intends to set up the police station of the New Federal Center. He was selected, and I will become a policeman."

His mother could no longer listen to what he was saying; her mind was full of the income of twenty-five dollars.

As the exchange rate of Para to the Federation has been plummeting, now one federal Sol can exchange for about one hundred and thirteen Para, and it will continue to fall.

Now in Lapa, if you want to use Para, especially in Zhuolan, most vendors have begun to collect federal Sol, not Para.

For the same piece of bread, it costs about thirty cents to buy with federal Sol, and it should be thirty-four dollars if calculated according to the exchange rate with Para.

But if the customer really uses Para to buy, then it is between forty and forty-five dollars. The reason is that this price is the expectation of the exchange rate fluctuation a week later.

Of course, they won't have such professional terms. They will tell customers that a week later, this bread will be this price. They need a week to deal with the Para in their hands, exchange it for federal Sol, or use it to continue to roll and buy bread or flour.

If they only collect fees according to the current exchange rate, then they will definitely lose money.

This is actually a very bad market environment. People's distrust of Para makes the credit of the national currency begin to collapse in the market.

Some shops even directly stated that they do not collect Para, only federal Sol, silver, gold, gems, and other finished products.

Para is also plummeting because of the obstruction of market circulation. No one knows where it will fall, but everyone knows that it is being eliminated.

Twenty-five dollars, a huge sum of money. Her son can receive such a huge sum every month. She is already a bit "crazy."

"This good news must be told to the sisters!", she said, and entered the room inside. Immediately after, the sisters' screams came...

Watching the family so happy, Juan hid the hesitation about the future in his eyes, "Let's go out for a meal!"

"Celebrate the change in my work?!"

Eating a meal outside costs about seven or eight dollars. If there are so many of them, it will cost seven or eight dollars or even more.

But now they can afford it.

The whole family agreed. Going to a restaurant to eat was definitely full of huge temptation and desire for them.

This was the first time in their family's life that they entered a restaurant. Everyone was careful. The reception didn't look down on them because they looked a bit uneasy.

Now the New Federal Center has huge opportunities and development potential. Maybe these people who look like they can't necessarily afford the dining expenses will become big figures after a while.

Such things have happened more than once. Federal people say these are "Federal Dreams," and the word "Federal Dream" has also begun to enter people's lives.

The family sat at a dining table, eating the dishes introduced by the restaurant, and everyone's face revealed a yearning for a beautiful life in the future!

Also in the process of this simple meal, they went from timid to confident!

It seems that there is nothing remarkable about dining in a restaurant...

This meal cost seven dollars and eighty-something cents. Juan heard that if you are satisfied with their service when dining in a restaurant, you can give a little tip, so he paid eight dollars directly.

In the waiter's gratitude, he seemed to feel that what he had lost, dignity, personality, had returned!

The next day, he recruited a group of young people and began training together. A month later, the police station in the lease will be established, and he will become one of the many police chiefs!

As for the police chief, it is naturally Lansi's people who will serve.

Not just the police station, but many other aspects, Lansi is dealing with them.

People ranked in the top ten in registration numbers have all received huge promotions. Some have become police chiefs, some have become deputy chiefs, and some have entered the company's management.

Each of them is like a huge lighthouse, pointing out the direction for people to move forward!

This is the power of examples and examples.

At the same time, they are increasingly unable to leave the federal people, unable to leave Lansi. They have thus given birth to a noble quality—loyalty—without even realizing it themselves!

The upward transfer of these people is not a simple matter. Like the establishment of the lease police station, like the establishment of some lease government departments, the federal government will arrange for some people to come and help assist in management, but more manpower is still born from these people in Zhuolan.

More people began to live around this lease. They formed a collection of interests. Whoever hurts Lansi is equivalent to wanting their lives!

As long as they join, no one will ever desire to return to the life of the past.

After all, they are human beings, and they also long to be respected. Many people are talking about this lease and Lansi, Diego, those privileged classes of dignitaries, and also including the insurgent army.

"Is the road smooth?"

When Ross walked in from outside, Pedro took the initiative to stand up and greet him. He hugged Ross.

Both of them are growing at a very fast speed. From last year to now, it is at most a year or so. They have grown to a staggering degree.

If you only look at the temperament and momentum they show, it is very difficult to connect them with their former identities.

Maybe people who see them for the first time are more willing to believe that they might come from some privileged family, and are people from famous families.

But in fact, they were just a high school teacher with no fame, and a worker doing hard labor in a factory.

Now they have a kind of thing that they shouldn't have in their identity; that is a kind of leader's temperament!

The two hugged and soon separated. Ross said with a smile, "Very smooth. There were no government troops on the road. I heard they are changing equipment."

Pedro sighed, "Lansi gave Diego so much money, plus the economic aid from the Republic of Jiede, he has at least forty or fifty million in cash in his hands."

"These money are enough to solve their troubles."

"Now they are changing equipment, so they have contracted the battle line. After they finish changing equipment, the intensity of the fighting will only continue to increase, not decrease."

When he said these words, his expression was very serious. Once the government army has sufficient military equipment, it is definitely not good news for these insurgent armies.

Ross couldn't help but hammer the table with his hand, "Damn Lansi White, none of these federal people are good things!"

Pedro's expression was slightly complicated. Ross turned to look at him, "You don't still think Lansi is a good person, do you?"

Pedro shook his head, "I knew he wasn't a good person from the beginning, but I didn't expect him to be able to do this step."

From the moment they participated in the seminar held by Lansi, they knew that Lansi might not have any good intentions.

He seemed to be exploring the differences between the two countries in the seminar, but in fact, he had been transporting some of his own ideas to them.

For example—

"The unhappiness of the Lapa people is caused by the leadership group. If you want the Lapa people to live a happy life, you must get rid of the ruling class."

"The best way to express dissatisfaction is not to tell others that you are dissatisfied with the result of this matter, but to use your fists, the weapons in your hands, to tell them that this matter must be done according to your ideas."

"Any change in the social system will inevitably be accompanied by sacrifice and bloodshed. There is no change that can be completed without sacrifice and bloodshed. Even if there is, it won't last long."

"People's happiness has always been in their own hands. If you hope that others can share their happiness with you and hand your destiny to others, this might be the stupidest thing you have ever done!"

He has said many such words, constantly instilling the idea that one must rebel, and only by rebelling can Lapa be bathed in the sun again.

Now they have really rebelled, and Lansi has used them to achieve his own goals.

Ross "hummed," "I have talked to the leaders of the other two insurgent armies, and they accepted our idea of attacking Zhuolan first."

"As for the future, they can accept a system like the Federation."

Now the time is very tight. They are all worried that since Diego has started to sell the country, his bottom line has disappeared.

If they continue to tug-of-war with the government army for a long time, in order to win the civil war, he might sell more things.

So their plan is to kill Diego as soon as possible, not giving him the opportunity to continue selling the country.

After fixing Diego and re-electing a grand president, they can completely overturn all the decisions of the former government.

By then, they might try to find a way to return the money Diego borrowed to Lansi, but things like the lease are absolutely not allowed to continue to exist.

Pedro nodded, "This is good news. They basically agreed on my side too."

Ross seemed to want to say something. Pedro asked, "What's wrong?"

Ross pursed his lips, "They intend to assassinate Lansi."

"Wang Defa?"

"At this time, go to assassinate Lansi?"

"Whose fucking idea is this?"

"Don't they know that assassinating Lansi at this time will only make the situation worse?"

"Not to mention whether they can succeed, even if they succeed, Lansi, such a front-stage figure representing federal interests, died in Lapa, which will only make the federal government shift some attention from the battlefield to us!"

"When Lansi is alive, as long as we are still within the rules of the game, he has to admit defeat when he should lose."

"But if he dies, the federal government will enter the game. By then, there will be no rules of the game at all, and everything will be finished!"

"You actually didn't stop them?"

Looking at Pedro's annoyed appearance, Ross gave a dry laugh, "I didn't think that much."

Pedro knew that Ross might have such an idea. In fact, for such a period of time, they have done quite well in the battle with the government army, constantly achieving victories.

The land that was originally taken back by the government army is now back in their hands.

If there are no accidents, they all think that maybe by February or March next year, they can push the battle line back to the suburbs of Zhuolan.

Once the "Zhuolan Defense War" happens, it means that the rule of the Lavila family will be completely ended, and the new Lapa will welcome its new "life"!

But at this damn time, Lansi gave the Diego government a large sum of money, allowing them to re-arm, which made the result of the war look unclear again.

They seem to have ignored that they can beat the government army back steadily, not because they have any outstanding achievements and levels in military affairs, but only because the government army's logistics support can't keep up.

Those government troops' bullets are no longer enough to maintain their continued high-intensity fighting. Besides constantly retreating, do you want them to hold the weapons in their hands and go out to fight with bullets?

When winning, don't consider what the Federation has done. Now that they are about to encounter trouble, they think of the Federation. It can only be said that this is one of the inferiorities of human nature.

And Ross doesn't think that getting rid of a Lansi White will directly make the federal government enter the game. The Republic of Jiede will definitely guarantee the independence of this side to the maximum extent.

Ross knows in his heart, Pedro knows in his heart, the two people who were originally classmates and now are comrades-in-arms have completely had two different directions.

Soon Pedro threw this matter to the back of his mind and began to talk to Ross about the next stage of the attack plan.

After all things were discussed, he returned to his room.

After thinking for a long time, he dialed the phone in Zhuolan and connected it to Lansi's desk.

"This is Lansi White."

"Mr. White, I am Pedro. I hope you can still remember a small character like me."

Hearing Pedro's voice, Lansi smiled and said, "You are not a small character, Pedro."

"You have already appeared in the federal newspaper. They call you 'the most brainy rebel in Lapa'."

Pedro laughed twice, "I thought they would use words like 'evil anti-government armed leader'!"

"They actually don't like Diego either!", Lansi teased, "So you called me this time, is there anything you want to tell me?"
