Chapter 86 The Sandy River Crisis

Xu Yi and Steele were stunned at the same time, and looked in the direction of the voice in amazement.

Xu Yi was extremely annoyed. The atmosphere between him and Steele was so good just now that he could finish a passionate kiss in the early morning, but was disturbed by this guy.

Moreover, this guy is not good at scolding anyone, but he is scolding himself by name, how can he bear it?

Xu Yi let go of Steele, frowned and walked towards the direction of the voice.

He would like to see, which guy is so short-sighted.

Unexpectedly, he only took two steps, but suddenly heard a "pop" sound from that direction, as if something heavy fell into the water.

Xu Yi was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Steele, who was also stunned, and shouted "Oops" at the same time. He couldn't care about it any longer, he added a wind control technique to himself, and flew directly to the river.

The two flew to the river in an instant, and when they looked down, they found that on the wide Sandy River, a figure was sinking and floating with the flowing river water on the river.

While floating, the man was still shouting for help.

Seeing this situation, Xu Yi couldn't help being a little angry and funny.

Sure enough, the guys who commit suicide are impulsive, and when they really face death, they will still regret it.

Xu Yi sighed, shook his head, flew down, grabbed the collar of the man's back with one hand, and lifted him directly from the river.

Carrying the man to the river and putting him down, the man tumbled on the ground and vomited several mouthfuls of river water, and then it eased.

When he finally stopped breathing, he raised his head to see Xu Yi and Steele in front of him, and thanked them repeatedly: "Thank you two for your help. Where do you live? What's your name? I'll make a special trip to thank you."

Xu Yi looked up and down this man, and found that although this man looked a little embarrassed after being soaked in the river, but judging from the clothes on his body, he should not be from a poor family, and his speech and behavior were very decent, what do you think? Neither are like people who threw themselves into a river because of poverty.

Thinking of how this guy scolded himself so bitterly before jumping into the river just now. Xu Yi asked amusingly: "You were still scolding me for being so happy just now, but now you don't recognize me? Besides, it doesn't matter if you don't recognize me, you can't even recognize Steele, right? "

Steele didn't have the time to respond to Xu Yi's praise for her, but squatted down. Looking directly at the man, he asked coldly, "Why did you scold Xu Yi? Did he offend you?"

The man looked at Steele in amazement, and then looked up at Xu Yi. Just now, because the two of them were facing the Chaoyang sun, he did not recognize them in the backlight. Now, when he looked at it from a different angle, he instantly felt The two were recognized.

Xu Yi was right at all. As a person from Bangta City, it would be reasonable if he couldn't recognize Xu Yi, but if he couldn't even recognize Steele. That is simply impossible.

However, after recognizing the two, the man seemed to be frightened, he pressed his hands on the ground, and stepped back several meters on the ground.

Just when Xu Yi and Steele looked puzzled and wanted to continue asking. He suddenly jumped up from the ground, pointed at Xu Yi and shouted: "Xu Yi! You are Xu Yi! You bastard! Give me back my fleet!"

Xu Yi was even more inexplicable, looking at the person who was clearly angry, but he seemed to be afraid of the person who dared not approach him, so he couldn't help saying: "Hey, I don't even know who you are, how can I return your fleet? I don't know what fleet at all. What do you want me to pay back?"

Steele frowned and looked at the man for a while, then suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Oh, I remembered, you seem to be the president of the Potter Chamber of Commerce, what is your name... What is Potter?"

"Smilla Potter." The man didn't seem to expect Steele to recognize himself, and was stunned for a moment. The angry expression on his face faded, and he smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that Miss Steele would recognize me when I became like this. Yes, I am the president of the Potter Chamber of Commerce, but now the Potter Chamber of Commerce... is no longer there."

Xu Yi gave Steele a look. Motion her to negotiate with this Smilla Potter first.

Steele nodded knowingly, thought for a moment, and continued to ask Smitha Potter: "President Potter, I remember the last time I met you at a banquet held by the Salak Chamber of Commerce. If I don't remember If it's wrong, your Porter Chamber of Commerce is mainly engaged in river transportation, right?"

"Miss Steele has an amazing memory." Smila Potter praised. "Yes, our Potter Chamber of Commerce is indeed mainly engaged in river transportation. But now..." Having said that, Smira Potter glanced at Xu Yi, her face full of hatred. "...But because of President Xu, our chamber of commerce was forced to close because of almost no business. My beloved fleet has also been sold, or it has been torn down into pieces of wood."

Xu Yi frowned and couldn't help but ask, "President Potter, your chamber of commerce was forced to close its doors because it couldn't receive business. What does this have to do with me?"

"It doesn't matter!" When answering Steele's question, this Smilla Potter was able to remain calm, but when he heard Xu Yi speak, he immediately became irritable and replied loudly: "If it wasn't for you The New Flying Chamber of Commerce built the damn highway. If it wasn't for your New Flying Chamber of Commerce, who even more damned to govern the upper reaches of the Sandy River, how could our Chamber of Commerce fail to receive business? How could it be closed? It's all because of you! How dare you say it has nothing to do with you?"

Xu Yi was still very puzzled: "I still don't understand, does the construction of roads and the management of the upper Sandy River have anything to do with whether your Porter Chamber of Commerce can receive business?"

Smilla Potter glared at Xu Yi fiercely, and seemed to realize that she could not communicate well with Xu Yi like this, so she took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

"Do you think it's okay, President Xu?" Smilla Potter sneered. "I tell you, it's a big deal! Before your new flying chamber of commerce doesn't build that damn highway, whether it's goods or people, walking on the river is much faster than walking on land, and it can transport more at a time. A lot. So before that, half of the goods in Bonta City were transported by the Porter Chamber of Commerce through the Sandy River. However, after this damn highway was built, everyone found that running on land is better than running on the river. It is fast, and it can be transported directly to the place, without the need to go up and down on the boat. In comparison, of course, fewer and fewer people choose our chamber of commerce for river transport.”

"Isn't that right? River transport can transport bulk cargo, which cannot be replaced by current land transport anyway." Xu Yi asked strangely.

"Large?" Smilla Potter sneered again. "Did you forget the other reason I just said?"

"Governing the upper Sandy River? What does that matter?"

"Of course it has something to do with it." Smitha Potter pointed to the stormy Sandy River next to him: "Your New Flying Chamber of Commerce has managed the upper Sandy River northwest of Rain Forest. Now the Sandy River has indeed recovered its previous channel. That's right, but the sandy sand from the Sandy River was not deposited in the Upper Rain Forest, but was washed by the river to the vicinity of Bangta City. If you take a closer look at the river water, don't you find that it is much more turbid than last year? "

Xu Yi and Steele looked at the Sandy River next to them at the same time. Xu Yi hadn't found any problems yet, but Steele nodded and said, "Well... don't tell me I haven't found it yet. Compared to when I was a child, the river water does seem to be less clean now."

Smitha Potter let out a loud laugh: "Ha, President Xu, have you found the problem now? Now the sand in the upper reaches of the Sandy River has been washed to the vicinity of Bonta City, not only making the river water muddy. Tell me You, I've been running this river for decades, and I'm familiar with these things. I'm sure it won't take many years for the river to rise due to sedimentation. All it takes is a rainstorm Come down, just wait and watch the flood. I heard that last time you were going to do a project on both sides of the river. You want to build a garden-like environment on both sides of the Sandy River. Ha! Garden? The flood came, this place will not become A cemetery would be great!"

Xu Yi was silent for a moment and walked to the river. Stretching out a hand, the magic in the body flows, and a stream of water immediately flies over the river, and then gathers into a water mass in the air.

Xu Yi and Steele looked up at the huge water mass with a diameter of two meters, and found that the color of the water mass was really turbid. A layer of sediment was deposited.

The two looked at each other. At the same time, you can see the worry in each other's eyes.

Although Smitha Potter said something alarmist, but now judging from the water conditions of the Sandy River, this is indeed a very important thing.

The level of science and technology on the Sainz Continent is not high, and the level of water conservancy engineering is of course not good enough. No matter where the flood occurred in the past, it will eventually lead to very serious consequences.

The Sandy River has never flooded before. Therefore, no one in Bangta City has thought about this problem, but now, looking at it this way, it is a problem that needs to be solved in front of us.

Xu Yi turned to look at Smilla Potter, nodded to him, and said solemnly, "Thank you."

Smilla Potter was taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect that Xu Yi would actually thank him so sincerely.

"no need thank me?"

"Thank you for noticing the changes in Sandy River and for telling me about the serious situation that may have occurred." Xu Yi replied. "Although this is not entirely the responsibility of me and our New Flying Chamber of Commerce, since it is related to me, then I will take this responsibility. So I would like to thank you, if it is not because you brought this issue to my attention, I'm afraid it will be too late when the real problem arises."

Seeing Xu Yi's sincere and serious expression, Smilla Potter's expression changed rapidly, and after a while, she became depressed, she waved her hand, and sighed: "Forget it, our chamber of commerce can't receive business. Forcing the door to close, this is also my own ability. I can't blame you. It was my fault that I scold you just now, please don't take it to heart. "

Xu Yi smiled and shook his head: "This is a small matter. But President Potter, what are you going to do in the future?"

"Me?" Smilla Potter gave a wry smile. "The fleet is gone, the chamber of commerce is closed, what else can I do? Now I don't even have the courage to commit suicide, so I'll just find a job and eat and wait until I die."

"That's not necessarily true." Xu Yi showed a confident smile on his face. "President Potter, if you take my word for it, I have a job that's perfect for you. And I'm sure it won't be long before the river will be taken seriously by everyone. At that point, I can help you rebuild Create a whole new fleet. Would you… believe me?"
