Chapter 123 my brother
"My friends, Lily hereby sincerely invites everyone to come to Jixi Town. Let's build a beautiful home together!"

Lily didn't know that several teams almost disbanded because of her casual cheer.

Lily is an obscure, unknown country radio hostess.

That was before.

When Clyde accidentally ignited the first beacon, when everyone was most helpless, Lily's broadcast was like the only spark in the dark night, and all the sad and helpless hearts could not help but rely on it.

After Iger set the highest goal of "rebuilding their homeland and continuing civilization" for the gospel team, under Lily's repeated propaganda, he successfully inspired countless survivors who were in deep despair.

When Ryan saw Lily that day, he knelt down and kissed the back of her hand excitedly. Everyone just ate it like a melon, thinking that Ryan was a fan of Lily.

This is not a "just" thing at all, but countless "just".

Lily's unremarkable words are more provocative and attractive than the fake team leader Long Wenwen shouting "Go, take you home" at the moment.

The only thing preventing fans from migrating to Rapid Creek right now is physical isolation.Their hearts had already flown to Jixi Town with the sound of singing and dancing on the radio.

……

……

A field team in a makeshift outpost.

After dinner, we gathered all the sleeping gear we could find in the house, tied it with ropes, and pulled it up to the top of the barn.

There are three floors in this barn. The space on the third floor is very low. People can only squat and walk on this floor, but it is excellent for sleeping.

On the second floor of the barn, there is a large ventilation window without glass, which can be used for lookout and sentry.

Iger yawned and said to Thomas: "Anyway, you've had enough sleep during the day, so you'll be on duty tonight.

If you can't stand it anymore, go upstairs and ask me to change shifts.Don't be lazy to sleep, and don't steal food.

All materials have numbers, and I can find them out just by licking them.

Prove your worth to everyone, Brother Tom. "

After being taken aback for a moment, Thomas nodded. He still had some small expectations for the night watch.

Finally waited until nightfall.

Thomas, who was standing on the second floor, saw that everyone was fast asleep and the time was right, so he tiptoed down the ladder to the lower floor of the barn.

Under the protection of the night, Thomas, wearing an "auspicious suit", sneaked into the farmhouse nimbly. He walked quickly to the fireplace, and impatiently stretched his fingers into the saucepan. leftovers.

Thomas took out the already warm steamed bun from his arms, broke off a small piece, put it in the pan to scrape it, and put it in his mouth beautifully.

Then Thomas went to the dining table, picked up a dinner plate, stuck out his long, dark red tongue, and licked the very center of the plate.

Delicious grease.

This is the extra meal Thomas has been waiting for for a long time.

After a while, Thomas, who had washed all the pots and tableware twice, walked out of the farm house with a satisfied expression. When he came to the yard, he opened his pants casually to drain the water.

Thomas, who often peeped at people, never expected that there was also a guy watching him with a low-light night vision device under the cover of darkness at the large window on the second floor of the barn.

Seeing Thomas walking towards the barn swaggeringly, the shadow put away the night vision goggles, climbed to the top of the barn lightly, and lay down again.

This guy is interesting.

……

……

Early the next morning, people in Jixi Town began to get busy.

After dinner last night, because of the lighting, the carnival lasted until late at night. The scene was so lively that when they went to bed that night, many people automatically joined in.

Early the next morning, "Foreman" Vance stood on the street in front of the hotel. He reached out and touched the back of his head, looked around, and cursed.

It turned out that except for the old members who got up and started activities, the new member was only Nicholas.

This morning, Nicholas pushed away the girl beside him and turned over with difficulty to get out of bed.He knew that if he wanted to have his place in this new team, he had to perform well in front of several bosses first.

Nicholas' immediate boss is Vance.

Although no one has introduced the composition of the Gospel team to Nicholas, Nicholas is very clear that Vance must have extremely high authority to be the first to pick and choose the "Latin man".

Nicholas read it right. The apparent power composition of the Gospel team is slightly different from the actual power distribution.

Father Locke, Iger, and Vance, as long as two of these three people agree or disagree with something, the matter can be passed or rejected.

Iger's bad luck last time was that he acted without waiting for Vance to come home.Vance had no choice but to give up on this kind of situation where he cut first and played later and formed a storm of public opinion.

If Iger can get Vance's consent during the meeting, the opinions of other people, such as Elvira and Lily, can be fully expressed, but these two men may not pay attention to them.

At the second meeting, Iger proposed a shocking three-step approach, which was opposed by both Father Locke and Vance, and Iger suffered another blow.

Iger's speech was vetoed by Lily because he had no right to make a proposal. In fact, it was because of Father Locke and Vance's opposition.

Proposal right itself is a relatively abstract thing, without the right to propose, can't speak and talk?

The rejection of Iger's speech is only related to the content of his speech, and has nothing to do with whether he is a member of the board of directors.

Many people can see the twists and turns here. Iger's blow is only in name, and his authority is not restricted in fact.

As for Joanna making another proposal for Iger, it was entirely Joanna's personal behavior, so Father Locke simply rejected her proposal.

Having said that, it doesn't mean that Iger feels better now.

Last night, Iger was lying on the mat in the barn. He tossed and turned and couldn't sleep all night. What happened in the past two days was played over and over again in his mind, which made him feel a stabbing pain in his heart.

After going back and thinking all night, I don't know why, Iger felt that Andy was planning from the beginning, and he used his own action plan.

The first person to contact Walton was Andy. It is entirely possible that he deliberately made the negotiations worse and worse, and finally let the peaceful settlement collapse, leaving only the way to seize by force.

Andy also knew that seizure by force would definitely not be authorized by the board of directors, but Iger's character was tough and impulsive, so he couldn't help but act without authorization.

Iger acted on his own and caught Andy's arms. Even the firearms and tear gas bombs used by Iger in the storm were provided by Andy.

Yes, Iger has no evidence. Conspiracy theories only look at ability and results, not evidence, because Andy has this ability, and he is the biggest beneficiary.

Iger doesn't want to let himself fall into conspiracy theories. He knows that conspiracy theories can only make people fall into malicious speculation and cannot extricate themselves.

Iger also knows that if he is replaced, then someone will naturally step up, but it happens that Andy is the best substitute, but it is difficult for him to stop imagining.

Iger thought of being around the fire that day, and Andy walked to his side, and he whispered to Iger, "I'm sorry, brother. This is not my plan."

Andy, my brother, my heart hurts right now.
