Transcendence Calendar Year 350, Li Yueming was seventeen years old.
Two years ago, Cloud Sky Group and Hurricane Group signed a truce agreement.
However, during the retreat.
Li Yueming sent the Resistance Army to strike at both sides at the most critical time and place.
He sent a mecha to pretend to be from Hurricane Group to attack the headquarters of Cloud Sky Group.
He also sent the genetic warriors that Kandor had researched to Hurricane Group’s repair shop.
The result was obvious.
The representatives of Hurricane Group and Cloud Sky Group sat at the negotiation table, their saliva flying everywhere. They had negotiated for more than a month before they finally signed the truce agreement.
In the end, it was immediately destroyed less than two hours after it took effect.
The soldiers on both sides started fighting again.
Although the higher-ups later discovered the problem and suspected that there were other forces behind it.
However, cracks had already appeared in the basic trust between Yunxiao Group and Hurricane Group.
It was naturally extremely difficult to repair it.
Therefore, the two sides fought for almost two years.
In the end, they slowly shrank the battle line and began to disband the border troops.
After all, war burned money, and the corporations believed in the greatest benefits.
In the absence of attractive output, burning money was no different from burning their lives.
The war was about to end.
Han Longfei gave Li Yueming an idea, wanting him to send someone to disrupt the situation again.
But this time, Li Yueming didn’t have such an intention.
War is the art of deception.
Can one, can two, can not three.
If he fanned the flames too much, he might really get into trouble.
Li Yueming didn’t believe that the corporations would be so stupid.
After being tricked a few times, he was still unprepared.
Moreover, two years ago, he was fanning the flames to buy time for the Resistance to develop.
Now, the Resistance had grown into a strong tree.
It was no longer the sapling that had just sprouted and could be easily blown down by a gust of wind.
In these two years.
The number of the Resistance increased exponentially.
The three cities had a population of about 40 million.
Currently, there were nearly a million rebel troops.
More than 80% of the ordinary residents had already applied for the identity documents of the Resistance.
Under such circumstances.
Li Yueming already had the confidence to contend with Yunxiao Group’s main force.
It was really unnecessary to play some underhanded tricks.
The reason why it’s developing so fast
The main reason was that the Resistance had brought tangible benefits to the residents.
After all, one person would not treat another person well for no reason.
Not to mention tens of millions of people.
In order to gain their support and recognition, the Rebellion Army naturally had to offer something tangible.
The most important thing was to have the identity of the Resistance. As long as they obeyed the unified arrangement and were willing to lower their pay.
All medical, housing, and educational resources belonging to the Resistance would be open to them for free.
The labor time was also cut from the original twelve hours to eight hours.
Food and accommodation during working hours were also included.
For the ordinary residents who were used to being exploited by the corporations.
These few things were simply things that he did not even dare to dream about.
One had to know that under the control of the corporations.
Medical care, housing, and education were basically high-voltage lines that ordinary people could not touch.
The first was medical treatment.
In order to monopolize resources.
In the city, doctors without qualifications were not allowed to practice medicine.
Once they were caught practicing medicine illegally, they would be sent to the assembly line for training.
In the worst case, he would be locked up in prison for seven to eight years until he had a mental breakdown.
If ordinary people wanted to get treatment, they could only go to hospitals certified by the corporations.
However, the hospital’s fees were probably more than the number of doctors.
It was common for a family to be emptied of all their assets when they went to the hospital when they were sick.
As for the house.
Those who knew about it would understand, and those who didn’t wouldn’t dare to say anything.
However, the corporate world was a little more complicated.
In the city, housing prices were not only linked to geographical location.
It was also related to the security of the surrounding area.
Houses with poor security often sold at a cheaper price.
However, the residents living here had to endure the harassment of some ‘unknown’ gang members and human traffickers who were armed with firearms.
What was that? Unsatisfied with this?
Then buy a safe house!
They only needed to pay two or three times the price of the house to buy a high-end building with security patrols.
Under the condition that the protection fee was sufficient.
To ensure that you and your child will not be harassed by gangs and human traffickers.
As for the final aspect of education.
It was also a very simple operational logic, and many of them were not complicated.
However, as long as it involved the monopoly of resources, it would be a huge profit.
And now.
As long as they joined the Resistance, they would receive free housing, free medical care, and free education.
How could this not make ordinary people ecstatic?
If not for the various restrictions on joining the Resistance, the number of ordinary people joining the Resistance would probably be even higher.
However, it was under such circumstances.
The economy of the entire city did not explode as many people had imagined.
Instead, it became even more prosperous.
After all, although the basic facilities of the Resistance were free of charge.
However, while ordinary people enjoyed everything, they did not have to pay for it.
They had to work at least eight hours a day.
He had to work five to six days a week..
