Chapter 807 Dispute
"The Star Destroyer Project is a huge project, and we have little foundation, so there is no need to rush. However, the Scourge Mech Project will be launched first, and the first experimental product is none other than the terrifying alien we killed on the XT-01 planet!"
"Okay!"
Everyone replied.
——
A few months later, Su Bai was in the office, reviewing documents.
After this period of time, the Star Alliance has gradually returned to normal operation.
After all, Su Bai has handled it very well during this period.
Therefore, Qinoya and Koendo were relieved and did not continue to work with Su Bai. After all, one of them was in charge of military affairs and the other was in charge of economic operations, not to mention that each of them had their own country's affairs to deal with.
At this time, a slight dispute sounded outside.
Su Bai put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and looked at Bai Lan with a little doubt.
"I'll go and see."
Bai Lan understood and walked out.
Not long after, Bai Lan came back and explained to Su Bai.
"The people who came are Senator Habir of the Has Republic and Senator Michs of the Danube."
Hearing Bai Lan's words, Su Bai pinched his eyes.
"Another conflict? What's the reason this time?"
"Not sure, would you like to meet them in person, Mr. Speaker of the Parliament?"
Bai Lan asked softly.
"Let them in."
Su Bai didn't say much.
Soon, two old men in parliamentary uniforms walked in, glaring at each other.
"Mr. Speaker of the Parliament."
The two greeted Su Bai at the same time.
"Sit down, tell me, what happened this time?"
Su Bai looked at the two. If he remembered correctly, they had mediated once last time, and it was only about a year ago. What's going on again?
"Mr. Chairman of the Parliament, please judge. Our two regions share a water purification pipeline. You also know that water resources are controlled. Because the purified water source is limited, the Republic of Hass has been using water resources beyond the limit all year round, resulting in very little water flow in our region. He is stealing our region's resources in disguise."
"What are you talking about? Our population is several times that of yours, so we naturally use more, and we have also reported it."
"You are still confident. You did report it, but you didn't pay enough money at all. A large part of it was on credit. Relying on the last subsidy of the Star Alliance, you had to erase it. You stole the water resources that the people in our region should have enjoyed."
The more the two argued, the more annoyed they became.
"Enough."
Su Bai knocked on the table slightly.
Member Habil and Member Mischis immediately shut up. It must be said that Su Bai still had momentum. Although his voice was not loud, he was full of majesty.
"Are you arguing over water resources?"
Su Bai looked at the two and said simply and neatly.
"Mr. Speaker of the Parliament, we really can't do anything. Our population is there. If we don't use so much, something will happen. And you know that the economy in our region has been very bad."
Member Habir complained.
Michès said, "Mr. Speaker of the Parliament, we don't want to cause you any trouble, but there is only so much water. Their outlet is above us. Once they use a lot of water, we won't have enough. We are also in trouble!"
Su Bai touched his forehead and had a headache. At the root, the two sides were still fighting for water resources.
"I know, let me think about it."
Su Bai also said with a headache.
At this time, there were constant anxious whispers outside the door.
Su Bai was also startled and turned to look at Bai Lan.
"What's the situation? Is there anyone waiting outside?"
"Yes, and there are a lot of them."
Bai Lan explained to Su Bai.
Su Bai was also very shocked. He got up and walked out, opened the door of the office, and looked out.
I saw a large number of parliamentarians waiting anxiously.
When they saw Su Bai appear, they shouted excitedly.
"Mr. Speaker of the Parliament"
"Why are there so many? Aren't they all here to mediate conflicts?"
Su Bai asked in disbelief.
"Yes, the Star Alliance is a hodgepodge, and there are conflicts every day. When Speaker Long Yan was in office, he would try his best to mediate. But after he fell ill, he had no energy to mediate, and was more focused on dealing with the overall situation, so these things were suppressed. Later, when you took office and gradually stabilized, they naturally couldn't wait to gather here."
"Gather them all in the No. 2 Parliament Hall."
Su Bai was also having a headache. It would take a long time to adjust them one by one until tomorrow, so he might as well gather them together for a meeting.
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
Bai Lan replied very neatly.
A moment later, in the No. 2 Parliament Hall, all the members who came to mediate entered, and the whole parliament hall was full of gunpowder.
"Just wait, I will definitely let the Speaker of the Parliament sanction you later."
"I'm waiting to see who will be sanctioned."
The quarrels were getting louder and louder.
Until Su Bai walked in, the noisy parliament hall gradually quieted down.
Looking at the angry councillors present, Su Bai also spoke with a headache.
"Take turns to speak."
"Okay, then I'll start. I'm the mayor of Muwei City and a member of the Star Alliance, Muduo. I came here mainly because Bach City shamelessly snatched the customers we diverted, which is unfair competition."
"What are you saying? How can we not compete fairly? We invited them here because of our ability."
"What did you say? We relied on our ability. Ask yourself, the most basic iron ore in the market is 854 star coins per ton. You offered them 1132 per ton in one breath. This is just looking for trouble."
"I need it urgently. The highest bidder wins."
"Next."
Su Bai touched his head and said with a headache.
The two councillors snorted and sat down, and then a female councillor stood up.
"Mr. Chairman of the Parliament, we are the representatives of Beihuang City. We want to accuse Moriwei City of occupying our planting area."
"How can we? That area is a neutral area. It was only used as a buffer at the beginning. There is no regulation on who owns it."
Su Bai listened to their complaints quietly.
After listening for a long time, Su Bai finally figured out what was going on. It was indeed a contradiction, but it was basically the same as the contradictions in the Republic of Has. They were all contradictions of survival. To put it bluntly, the fundamental problem was the scarcity of materials.
If there were enough materials, these contradictions could be easily resolved.
The simplest example is that if you supply the Republic of Has and the Danube with enough water, they will immediately not care. And the situation in Muwei City is even simpler. If there are enough supplies to buy in the market, nothing will happen.
Su Bai finally said, "Be quiet for a moment."
Soon everyone quieted down.
Su Bai looked at everyone and said, "I have heard your demands. In fact, you know very well in your hearts that it is not a big conflict, but a problem of resources, right?"
The originally angry people lowered their heads.
