However, it was only a little. When they met again, although they were a little emotional, they quickly recovered their previous feelings.
These two men didn't even bring a single guard, and they were the fastest to arrive. Shao Qing's message had only been sent out a short while ago, and the two of them had already arrived. It was as if they had immediately packed their things and rushed over the moment they received the news.
Shao Qing never liked to express her gratitude to others, but she could clearly see this kind of supportive attitude. She immediately asked someone to arrange their accommodation, and then they had a meal together.
Yan Pingshen was still the same, but Meng Shen seemed to be quieter.
The few of them gathered together and had a simple chat. They didn't say much.
After about four to five days, everyone was present. Shao Qing and the host, Tang Yaozu, were in charge of arranging the itinerary. To put it bluntly, it was a simple tour around the base and a meal. Then, they sat together.
Shao Qing was the most direct person. She went straight to the point. "A few days ago, I don't know who spread the news and even sent people to deal with Jiang City. Everyone has seen the outcome of the matter. Fortunately, two days ago, my subordinates discovered a problem. That is, all the land and water sources were polluted, but it wasn't because the environment was evolving to be bad."
After piquing everyone's curiosity, she didn't keep them in suspense. She only said, "This is a conspiracy. It's not only targeted at Jiangcheng, but also all the bases. Because I discovered that the reason why the land and water sources were contaminated was because someone had poisoned the water sources."
Her words were like a stone that stirred up a thousand ripples. Everyone was stunned. How could it be poison? What kind of poison could contaminate 99% of the bases in the country?
A few of the base chiefs began to whisper to each other in private.
Shao Qing slammed the table. Then, she said, "Be quiet and listen to me. Besides, I also discovered that Yan River and its tributaries were poisoned, but the waters near Jiangcheng were safe. Then, the question is, if the person who poisoned the water had the ability to affect the whole country, why didn't he poison Jiangcheng too? Think about the Qian Family that attacked Jiangcheng some time ago. The reason is self-evident, right? "
Someone immediately plucked up his courage and said, "Who knows if it was Jiangcheng who poisoned the water? After poisoning the whole country, only Jiangcheng wasn't poisoned. Since they were discovered, it's possible that they turned around and blamed us. "
Shao Qing sneered. Then, she said, "If I had the intention to poison you, I would have poisoned your cheap mouth mute first. I'm sick of hearing it."
That person was so angry that his face turned green. He slammed the table and wanted to stand up. In the end, he was held down by the people beside him. Although his guess was indeed possible, his words were too harsh. It was normal to be slapped in the face. He couldn't blame her for having a bad temper.
After Shao Qing finished scolding, she sat down. Her face was cold. She said, "If you have any doubts, you can speak. I'm a democratic person. You can speak your mind."
Then, no one spoke. She was democratic?
They really couldn't tell …
Now was the time to ask her for help. No matter what, they couldn't offend her.
"If no one has any objections, I'll continue. After my people found out that the source of the poison was in the water, they did a detailed investigation. The reason why I called everyone here is to explain this matter clearly to everyone. Then, each of you can contribute to find the source of the poison. Once the matter is resolved, everyone will be happy. To put it bluntly, this poison incident didn't affect Jiangcheng. I can ignore it. However, I'll take care of this matter because I don't want trouble in the future. If any of you have opinions about me, it's okay. Just hold it in. If you want to throw a tantrum, don't do it in front of me. Otherwise, don't blame me when you die," Shao Qing said coldly.
"My words aren't nice to hear. You can put up with it. If you don't, it's okay. Anyway, this is my territory."
All the base chiefs and higher-ups were speechless.
"If anyone has any opinions, you can speak up. After all, we're going to cooperate soon." Shao Qing said lazily, "Don't cause trouble and hold me back when we start cooperating. If you didn't know that I have a bad temper in the past, you should know now. When the time comes, I won't be polite to anyone who causes trouble or holds me back."
Someone immediately said, "If each of us sends a few people, will it be like the Qian Family where there are many leaders? Or will we choose one leader to lead everyone? We have to clarify this matter. Otherwise, no one will feel at ease. "
Shao Qing was a little impatient. This was the biggest problem when working with this group of people. Their hearts and minds were always filled with power. Everything else had to be pushed to the back of their minds.
"I didn't say that we're going to cooperate with you to settle this matter. What I mean is that each family should send a few people to investigate separately. If we investigate together, it won't be a problem. No one needs to care about each other. Anyway, it's not like we're going out to fight. If we have to find a leader to investigate something, it's annoying." Shao Qing said coldly, "If we find a leader, we'll probably have to negotiate for a few days. By then, the person who did this in the dark would have destroyed all the evidence. Why would we need to wait for you to investigate?"
That person's face was a little red. He muttered a few words but didn't say anything else.
"If no one has any more questions, this matter is settled. Each of you will send a few people and organize a few teams to investigate separately. Find out the source and the problem. Figure it out and solve this matter. It will be good for you, good for me, and good for him." Shao Qing said lightly.
Yan Pingshen was the first to express his support. "I think Castellan Shao is right. Everyone, don't guess who the person who poisoned is. When the source is found and the matter is solved, it won't be too late to study this. After all, our biggest problem now is that the land is polluted and can't produce food. After solving this biggest problem, the other problems won't be a problem."
People agreed one after another. Although they didn't like Shao Qing very much, they had to admit that this time, it was really thanks to Shao Qing.
