342, March 2nd, 8:00 AM.
Yesterday, sections of the upper reaches of the Great River experienced a dry spell. The Governor's Mansion of River City has decided to dam the Great River and continue to extract groundwater to ensure the operation of the nuclear power plant…
To ensure residents' water supply, some of the nuclear power plant's generator sets will be shut down starting today… Power will be prioritized for the underground city construction site, and time-limited power supply will be implemented for all shelters…
Tang Li was watching the news while having breakfast with Tang Guo.
Upon hearing this news, Tang Guo sighed and said, "Fortunately, we installed solar panels in advance. We don't have to worry about power outages, and we can even sell surplus electricity to the grid to earn points."
Tang Li nodded in agreement.
Although River City still had electricity, the electricity bills were very expensive, and people used it sparingly.
Tang Li's family had solar panels and did not lack electricity. On the contrary, they could sell electricity to the grid and earn points.
However, these points were negligible to Tang Li.
With Tang Li's encouragement, the Peng Yue family upstairs, Grandpa Li's family downstairs, and even many residents in the villa area began to install solar panels.
As for the source, most of them were sold by Tang Li in the black market.
Now, the entire villa area's electricity supply could almost be self-sufficient.
Last night, a fire broke out in River City Shelter No. 3… The cause of the accident is under investigation.
Suddenly, Tang Li heard this news on television.
She raised an eyebrow and thought to herself, "It seems this matter has already attracted the attention of the authorities."
"Guo Guo, when you sell appliances today, go to that neighborhood on the east side. Someone there should need appliances."
Tang Li said to Tang Guo.
Tang Guo didn't ask any more questions and just nodded.
After finishing her meal, Tang Li went out.
Today was the first day of her long-term cooperation with Song Pinxuan in the black market.
She needed to make an extra trip to deliver a truckload of materials that Song Pinxuan needed.
In addition, she had to deal with the people tracking her.
Therefore, she left a little earlier than usual.
As for the Mercenary Guild, she had agreed with Peng Yue to go in the afternoon, not in the morning.
Of course, Tang Li would also practice traditional Chinese martial arts at home every morning.
Peng Yue would come to guide her before he left for the Mercenary Guild.
At this moment, Peng Yue had already gone to the Mercenary Guild.
Tang Li drove towards the black market in River City Shelter No. 2.
Behind her car, someone was still following closely.
However, today's trackers were clearly following more closely. The number of tracking vehicles had increased from 2 to 4.
It seemed they were guarding against something or preparing to attack her at any moment.
Tang Li pouted and sighed softly, "So, I've alarmed them?"
Then, she took out her phone and dialed a number.
"Hello, River City Security and Public Order Department."
When the call was connected, a magnetic female voice replied.
"Hello, someone is following me and might be trying to harm me. I'm calling the security department to report, and there might be a conflict later."
Tang Li said directly into the phone.
The female voice on the other end of the line paused and then asked sternly, "Madam, where are you currently located?"
Tang Li truthfully reported her location to the other party.
"Madam, please protect yourself. Our security department will send duty officers to handle it."
Upon hearing this, Tang Li smiled, "You've misunderstood. I am ranked first in the Mercenary Guild's individual combat power list, and I am not afraid of these people tracking me."
"I'm just calling to report that there might be a conflict later."
The female voice on the other end was clearly stunned when Tang Li said that.
Then she said, "Then please try your best not to take any lives."
As expected, they knew who she was.
Knowing Tang Li's combat strength, they would say such a thing.
This was within Tang Li's expectations.
The security department would definitely pay attention to people from the Mercenary Guild, especially those on the combat power rankings. It would be dereliction of duty not to.
After hanging up the phone, Tang Li decisively turned her car around and, without hesitation, stepped on the accelerator, heading straight for the trackers.
Bang!
Tang Li's car directly overturned one of the trackers' cars.
Immediately after, shouts and yells came from the trackers' cars.
Before long, excluding the overturned car, a total of 5 cars drove out and surrounded Tang Li's car.
More cars were rushing towards them from a distance.
"All of you, get him alive!"
More than a dozen trackers got out of their cars and rushed directly towards Tang Li.
One tracker smashed Tang Li's car window, while another directly pulled out a handgun and aimed it at Tang Li inside the car, ordering her to get out.
At this moment, Tang Li had already put on her mechanical exoskeleton!
