"Old Li, I've always been very curious about the relationship between the Knight Organization and the Qinghe Group." On the way out of Stronghold 74, Ren Xiaosu asked, "Everyone says the Knight Organization belongs to the Qinghe Group, but I keep getting the feeling that y 'all are more like free agents."
When Zhou's Army received the escapees, Ren Xiaosu, Zhou Yingxue, Lee Young-yoon, and Qin Sheng left the group. They did not really want to have any contact with Zhou's Army, let alone do any radiation monitoring.
Since Ren Xiaosu still had something he needed to discuss with Hope Media in Luoyang City, the four of them decided to travel together.
When Old Li heard Ren Xiaosu's question, he said, "Actually, this isn't really a secret, so it doesn't matter even if I tell you. Before The Cataclysm, the Knight Organization and the Qinghe Group only had the same boss. Neither of them was subordinate to the other, and they were more like two organizations of the same level. Later on, when The Cataclysm started, the Knight Organization assisted the founder in saving the Qinghe Group. Since then, the relationship between the two parties became closer. Before that, the two parties rarely even interacted with each other."
"I see." Ren Xiaosu nodded.
At this moment, Old Li sighed and said, "Back then, our seniors either died or got injured to preserve the foundation of the Qinghe Group. Now that the Kyung Clan has mastered nuclear weapons, who knows when another cataclysm will come."
However, Ren Xiaosu shook his head. "I don't think so. I've always felt that weapons still depend on who uses them. Based on my understanding of Qing Zhen and Luo Lan, they won't abuse such weapons."
"Oh?" Old Li looked at Ren Xiaosu in surprise. "Brother Xiaosu, do you know much about the Kyung Clan's Duo?"
Ren Xiaosu did not know whether to laugh or cry. What the hell was with the Kyung Clan's Duo? He said, "I used to live in the Southwest, and I only escaped to the Central Plains because of the Experimentals' invasion. I've interacted with Qing Zhen and Luo Lan before, and although I don't think they're good people, they're definitely not bad people either. I hope that the Knight Organization doesn't judge them based on their character."
Ren Xiaosu's relationship with Luo Lan could be said to be quite good, so he was still very willing to speak up for the other party so that the Kyung Clan could have fewer enemies.
But when Old Li heard this, he suddenly noticed something else. He already knew that Ren Xiaosu's name was only one character away from Ren Xiaobei's. Moreover, the young man next to him was also a supernatural being and seemed to be very powerful.
Old Li did not think too much about it before this because he felt that even if the heir to the Knight Organization managed to live to a ripe old age, he should still be very old. At the very least, he should look like a middle-aged man, so he did not think too much about Ren Xiaosu.
But now that he heard that Ren Xiaosu was also from the Southwest, he still felt a little apprehensive. Old Li discreetly sized up Ren Xiaosu. Mhm, he could be considered quite good-looking.
Could this be the fucking person they and the Experimentals were looking for?!
However, Old Li did not say much about it. He just kept this thought to himself. The two of them would still have to cross paths when they arrived at Luoyang City, so Old Li had to sort out the details first.
Ren Xiaosu asked casually, "I heard that the Qinghe Group is currently controlled by Xu Ke of the Xu clan, but the Xu clan says they're only managing it on behalf of the major shareholder. Is the Xu clan really that selfless and selfless?"
"I don't know about others." Old Li's thoughts were interrupted by this question. He said, "Xu Ke's branch of the Xu clan is still very upright and has never coveted anything that doesn't belong to them. But it's hard to say about the other members of the Xu clan. Although Xu Ke is the only son in the third generation, he still has some relatives and friends who don't know their place. Forget it, why am I telling you this?"
Realization dawned on Ren Xiaosu. So it turned out there were also internal conflicts within the Qinghe Group.
When they arrived at Luoyang City, Ren Xiaosu and the others registered at the gate to enter the stronghold. As the Knight was accompanying them, everything went very smoothly.
However, when Ren Xiaosu saw a lot of people going in and out of Luoyang City's gate, he asked Old Li, "These people look like refugees to me. Are they allowed to come and go as they please?"
"Oh, you're talking about that." Old Li said with a smile, "Many of them have work and trade visas for the stronghold, so they can come and go as they please. Of course, they have to come out before the gate closes at 10 p.m. Only a student visa allows them to stay in the stronghold until they finish their studies. After they finish their studies and graduate successfully, they can directly apply for a resident identification card and settle down in the stronghold. "
Ren Xiaosu found this quite novel. "Are there a lot of children from other strongholds who come here to take the college entrance exam? Can refugees take the exam too? "
"Of course they can. Refugees can also get into college. Moreover, Qinghe University has specially set aside some quotas for the refugees so that they can use their knowledge to change their destiny. As long as they get into college, they can become stronghold residents." Off to the side, Qin Sheng explained, "That's why there are tutoring classes outside of Luoyang City. Some of the teachers in the stronghold like to come to town to earn some extra money. This can also be considered a unique industry chain in Luoyang City."
Ren Xiaosu nodded. This could also be considered as preparing a path for the refugees to climb up the stronghold. Although it was just a single-plank bridge, it was enough for the refugees to have something to look forward to.
Qin Sheng glanced at Ren Xiaosu and continued, "We also wanted to open up the stronghold, but as you know, we'll make enemies with the other consortiums if we do that. That's why we can only use this method."
"I understand." Ren Xiaosu nodded. In this era, anyone who dared to stand out from the masses required courage. It was already not easy for the Qinghe Group to be willing to set up a path for the refugees to climb up the stronghold, so what right did others have to ask for more?
Qin Sheng continued, "But even so, many of the consortiums are still dissatisfied. Representatives of the consortiums often come to the Qinghe Group to negotiate with them, hoping they can do the same as the other consortiums and ban refugees from entering the stronghold."
As they spoke, they entered the stronghold. The Qinghe Group's vehicles were already waiting at the gate. Old Li had a car send Ren Xiaosu and Zhou Yingxue to the Hope Media building. Meanwhile, they were anxious to meet up with the other Knight to hold a meeting.
This meeting was an internal Knight meeting. Too many things had happened recently, and some of them were even related to the Knight, so they had to quickly come to a conclusion.
The two parties bade each other farewell. Their journey had come to an end here.
When they arrived at the Hope Media building, Ren Xiaosu got out of the car and looked at the Hope Media building. It looked quite old and did not have the grandeur of the other buildings in the stronghold.
Just by looking at the facade, it was hard to imagine this was the famous headquarters of Hope Media.
Ren Xiaosu explained his purpose to the security guard at the entrance and said he was here to place an advertisement. Immediately, a staff member from the business department came out to receive him.
This staff member was not old and was about the same age as Zhou Yingxue. He said with a smile, "Which company are the two of you from? What kind of advertisement would you like to place, and how much space would it take up?"
