The New Washington A was just an oasis city with a population of no more than 300,000, but the suburbs were crowded with tens of thousands of refugees. So on and so forth, the number of refugees in the entire Noah World was really shocking. Even if it was temporarily suppressed, it would inevitably cause catastrophic consequences if the refugees rioted in the future.
Understanding the implied meaning in Zhang Lisheng's words, Charlie explained indifferently, "Boss, because the New Washington City is the closest city to the border between the Earth and the Noah World, it's inevitable that there are more refugees in the suburbs.
In fact, those oasis cities built in the depths of the Noah Desert do not have such an exaggerated number of refugees. Not only that, most of the refugees in Noah World are not American nationals. As an alternative 'stowaways,' the federal government only has a little insignificant humanitarian responsibility to them.
If they really cause trouble, even if the government suppresses them forcefully, it won't cause much opposition from the federal citizens. "
"What do you mean, Charlie? Isn't the core value of the United States freedom, democracy, and equality?" Zhang Lisheng asked, unable to understand at once.
"Of course, but the values of the Americans are only applicable to the Americans," Charlie shrugged and said with a smile. "Do you know how many Mexicans have died in the New Mexico wilderness because of stowaways a few years ago before the space fence appeared?
In fact, those stowaways only need a little bit of clean water to survive, but hundreds of people die every year. There was once a kind-hearted American who built several water supply points in the wilderness between the US and Mexico in order to save those stowaways. In the end, he was arrested by the Immigration Bureau and more than 80% of the US citizens thought that he should be sentenced.
This is because the cheap Mexicans who have no 'identity' are willing to do any kind of work and will take away the job opportunities of the US citizens. Not only that, but they are also prone to commit crimes and make the city's security worse. In short, illegal immigration will make the United States worse, so be it children or women, they deserve to die of thirst and turn into humans.
In other words, even though not all of the US citizens think so, most of them still think that the law is more important than morality or even human nature. "
"National interest and human selfishness? Looks like I've gone too far again …" Upon hearing Charlie's words, Zhang Lisheng shrugged and muttered. After that, he looked at the neon lights flashing on the skyscrapers outside the window and pondered for a while before saying, "Charlie, let's go back to the Ocean Empire Hotel first.
Take a night off and contact Senator Houg for me tomorrow. "
"Okay, boss. By the way, Senator Houg has taken over the position of the vice president of the federation from His Excellency Alenko who was suddenly critically ill not long ago. Now, he has a better ability to repay your previous' kindness'," Charlie said with a smile.
"Vice president sounds good, but I'll have to step down as a senator, so I'm afraid the actual influence won't be much," Zhang Lisheng shook his head with a smile. "But no matter what, it's always a good thing that the 'fish' in the 'pond' has grown a little."
"Oh, now that you mention it, I have another piece of good news to tell you, boss. According to the Election Law, a senator who voluntarily steps down has the right to designate his own successor. The successor designated by Vice President Houg, the former member of the House of Representatives, Mr. Lennon Fürstlund, is a very 'interesting' person. Not only that, because he doesn't have such lofty ambitions as Houg, he also likes to 'make friends'.
Through Mr. Fürstlund's introduction, in just two weeks, Edward and I have already gotten to know many members of the Senate and the House of Representatives who are as' interesting 'as him, "Charlie said with a smile.
"This is good news. Well, Edward is a lawyer, so maybe he should also be elected as a senator or something …" Upon hearing the implied meaning in Charlie's words, Zhang Lisheng said thoughtfully. Then, without warning, he chuckled and said, "Forget it, actually, it's not necessary. According to the plan, I'll be able to conquer the second world in eight to nine months at most.
After that, it'll be the third, the fourth … With the expansion of the land of faith, the war of conquest in the future will only become easier. By the time Edward runs for the federal senator, the United States should be nothing to me.
At that time, Charlie, if you're tired of being a rich businessman in a free and democratic world, then I can grant you a continent to manage and enjoy the taste of power as you please. "
"Oh, boss, I was born in the US, educated and grew up in this country, so I think the current life is more suitable for me …" Charlie said cautiously.
"Then you can stay in the United States and enjoy the life of a rich man for hundreds or thousands of years, as long as you can explain why you can live so long." Zhang Lisheng waved his hand indifferently and joked. Upon hearing these words, Charlie lowered his head in gratitude and respect. Turning the steering wheel, he turned the car into the side road that led directly to the lobby of the Ocean Empire Hotel.
Twenty to thirty seconds later, a dark blue sports car in front of the Cadillac RV finally drove away. Charlie parked the car in front of the hotel and hurriedly got off the car before personally opening the door for Zhang Lisheng, who was sitting in the back seat.
As an employee of the group, of course, everyone knew the appearance of the LS CEO. When the doormen saw Charlie coming out of the driver's seat, they already had a dumbfounded expression on their faces. When they saw that he was not driving alone but was acting as a driver instead, their eyes immediately widened.
"Oh, Bob, looks like our big boss hasn't been killed by the supernatural realm's god." After recognizing the hair color and age of the guest in the back seat of the Cadillac in a daze, a slender and smart young white man among the doormen snapped back to reality first. He muttered to his companion beside him quickly, "Do you know? I used to go to high school in the same neighborhood as him in old New York.
I've even seen him riding alone on the road in a daze without a girlfriend. But look at him now, and look at me again. Ah, I really regret dozing off in biology class last time. " He quickly walked up and took the car key from Charlie's hand. Then, he respectfully said, "Good evening, Dr. Zhang, Mr. Charlie." In return, he received an enviable tip of 50 dollars.
At this time, Zhang Lisheng had already walked into the lobby of the Ocean Empire Hotel with his spokesperson in the United States.
Stepping on the floor made of transparent tempered glass, the hollow space under the glass was covered with yellow sand, with various strange dune creatures inhabiting it.
Looking at the wall made of compacted soil that was planted with countless dense and tall shrubs, breathing in the fragrant and fresh air that only the forest in the hotel lobby had.
Breathing in the fragrant and fresh air that could only be found in the forest in the hotel lobby, Zhang Lisheng strolled to the center of the lobby. Beside a fountain shaped like an oasis lake, he sat down in front of a solid wood coffee table surrounded by three exquisite leather single sofas on the west side of the pool that was swimming with fish.
Looking at Charlie, who was sitting opposite him with a confused look on his face, he shrugged and said, "It's been a long time since I've felt the aura of a civilized world. I want to first look at the beautiful women in short skirts from the Federation in the hotel lobby and enjoy a sumptuous seafood feast. Then, I'll think about serious problems like how to better and faster conquer a world by myself."
"Oh, that's understandable, my dear boss. No matter how great a person is, he'll still be a little tired. I'll go order for you." Charlie was stunned for a moment before smiling in relief.
"No, Charlie, go arrange a car to wait at my mother's house first. I'll call her right away. Maybe she'll come to see me overnight," Zhang Lisheng showed a rare complicated expression and said slowly.
"Yes, boss." Charlie took out his mobile phone from his pocket and placed it in front of the black-haired young man in front of him. Tactfully, he gave a simple answer before standing up and leaving his seat. Zhang Lisheng, on the other hand, picked up his phone and hesitated for a moment before dialing his mother's number.
The phone rang a few times before it was picked up. An anxious, hoarse female voice resonated, "Hello? Is this Mr. Charlie? Is there any news about my son?"
"Mom, it's me, Lisheng. I-I'm fine. Don't worry …" Zhang Lisheng became silent for a few seconds before replying with a slightly trembling voice.
"Lisheng, Lisheng! M-My baby, my son! W-Where are you …" The voice on the other end of the phone became extremely agitated and interrupted Zhang Lisheng's words.
"I'm at the Ocean Empire Hotel. Don't worry about me." Zhang Lisheng took a deep breath but could not help but tear up. As he evolved on the ancient god's path, his emotions became more and more sensitive.
"Are you at New Washington A? That's great! I'll go see you right away! I'll go right away … T-They said that you're dead!
Those aliens said that the Earth spaceship you took was affected by the attack of the Faron World's god! You … I … But I never believed it! I never believed it … "The female voice on the other end of the phone said incoherently in ecstasy." Oh, of course!
Of course, I won't die so easily. In fact, I'll never die, mom! I'll never die! So don't worry! Don't be too agitated, okay? "Zhang Lisheng comforted his mother in a gentle voice." I'll go home tomorrow afternoon, so don't worry. It's already very late now … "
"No, I want to see you! I want to see you now! Lisheng, I must see you today …" Lili became more and more agitated on the phone.
"Alright, mom! Alright!" Zhang Lisheng agreed helplessly. "Then don't drive yourself to the Ocean Empire Hotel, okay? I'll arrange a car to pick you up. Wait patiently, the car will arrive soon."
"Alright, baby! I understand! I'll wait! Oh, today! Today is the luckiest day of my life! I've just finished praying to God and I've already received your call.
Oh, my dear baby, I-I want to call your Uncle Lavin. He's also very worried about you during this period of time, and Randy, Riley, Michelle, Harry … In short, I want to tell everyone who cares about you that you've returned safely. "
"Oh, alright, mom! You can tell whoever you want, but don't be too agitated. It's not good for your heart. Also, wait patiently at home for the car.
See you later! "Zhang Lisheng reminded again and hung up the phone gently.
