Gene of Brilliant City 13 Division

Chapter 1997 Sun House 1

April 2

10 o'clock in the morning

Le Wen woke up from the hangover, and the reception lasted until 5 o'clock in the morning. He looked at the small table beside him with a glass of water on it.

This is what Su Xin would put on every time Le Wen drank. Le Wen picked it up with a smile and drank it in one gulp. Friends in the company will take care of it. Le Wen plans to rest at home for two or three days. He has been busy recently. The first time I slept directly in the company.

The door of the room opened, and Su Xin came in with a basin of water.

"I just heard you get up, why don't you sleep a little longer!"

Le Wen shook his head and yawned. After getting up, he washed his face and felt much more comfortable. Su Xin sat on the edge of the small bed, and the couple began to talk about their travel plans for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Over the years, the husband and wife have always insisted on living on the ground floor, where life is relaxed and happy.

"By the way, before our child is born, do you want to participate in some prenatal knowledge training in advance?"

Le Wen asked, and Su Xin shook her head.

"Why go so early, get up quickly, I have prepared porridge for you, and we will go shopping in the street later."

Le Wen hummed, the birth permit has been issued, but it needs to wait until 2249.

Now that the population is strictly restricted, it is becoming more and more difficult to give birth. Anyone who violates the birth law will be directly expelled from the city, and it is the same for people of any class.

Although the population growth rate is slow, the population of Brilliant City has exceeded 2600 million and is slowly approaching 3000 million. The excessive population will only make the resources that are already severely undersupplied more and more tense.

Liquid food is still the best-selling food in the city at present, with a sales volume of about 5000 million a day. This figure is very exaggerated. Le Wen feels that there may be major problems in the future due to the quality of liquid food.

The research team of Le Wen and his friends have tested many liquid foods produced before. There are many industrial additives in these liquid foods. These products will seriously damage human health, but most companies that produce liquid foods insist that There will be no problem.

It is true that there will be no problem in the short term, but long-term consumption will cause irreversible damage to the body, unless the metal content of the body can be cleaned up once a quarter, but the current price of this technology is still very expensive, not everyone can affordable.

"What are you worried about?"

Su Xin asked, Le Wen sighed helplessly, and said what was in his heart, Su Xin thought for a while and smiled.

"I think it's actually okay, much better than in the past, and not every liquid food company adds a lot of it."

Le Wen smiled and nodded, and the couple went out after a while.

All the way to the street, the neighbors came over from time to time to chat with the couple, and when they officially came to the main street, it was almost 12 o'clock.

The street in the early morning is still the same as before. The couple are shopping in some shops, and they plan to eat lunch outside today.

"Lao Le, I heard that your company has successfully started."

The owner of a restaurant warmly greeted him. Le Wen smiled and exchanged pleasantries with him. The owner immediately pulled Le Wen.

"I'll eat it at my place today."

The boss said, Le Wen smiled helplessly, and couldn't hold back the enthusiasm of the boss, so he went in.

"I'll make some good dishes for you, and I'll invite you for today's meal."

Although Le Wen was embarrassed, he still nodded. At this moment, someone came in to talk and laugh with Le Wen. Everyone in the neighborhood knew Le Wen and Su Xin. The couple had helped many people, whether it was financial help Or in other aspects, the boss is the person who once received Le Wen's help.

At this time, several members of the gang came in, and the leader of the group came over respectfully.

"Lao Le, the machine over there is broken, are you free, go over there."

"No time."

Before they finished speaking, Su Xin said angrily, a group of people left helplessly, Le Wen said that he would go over to take a look in a few days.

Although some of the 118 districts have been reduced to slums, they are not as bad as many people understand literally. It is normal for many so-called families to have a monthly income of less than 500.

Because the prices at the bottom are very low, so low that many people can’t imagine. Naturally, the labor costs are low if the prices are so low, and the income is naturally low. The minimum tax of 15 yuan a month is not difficult for many people.

Most of the people living on the ground floor are women, children and the elderly, and most of the young people who are strong have gone to work outside, so it is impossible to count the income of these young people into the area.

This is what Lewen is more worried about now. He has gone to the district power office many times, hoping that they will adjust the method of income statistics in the area, and take the family as the unit. Even if someone in this family works in an outside area, basically Because the place of work is not in the local area, it cannot be included in the income statistics of the area.

Such statistics will make the prejudice more intense. Many middle-level people are not even willing to come to the bottom. Obviously, the consumption here is so low, and the quality is not bad. Will not come to the bottom.

If there is no flow of people to consume, the situation at the bottom will only get worse and worse. In the past, although many merchants would choose some small workshops at the bottom to manufacture goods, such small workshops have disappeared now.

Because machinery and equipment cannot be afforded by such small workshops, and many products in the new era cannot be produced by small workshops at all, and most merchants have moved their manufacturing back to the western factory area.

If the bottom continues like this, it will become less and less competitive. Although Le Wen doesn't want to speak out for something, but in the future his children will also live in the bottom, so he will pay attention to these things.

Although some media had reported these matters before, they did not cause any waves. The bottom-level matters have been selectively ignored by most people.

And most people who were born at the bottom just want to escape from the bottom as soon as possible. They never thought about it. Many times, their birth determines many things. Even if they escape from the bottom, they will return to the bottom in the end.

There are many people who have gone around in circles and returned to the bottom. This does not mean that they have lost, because the starting point is different. Many middle- and upper-class people who live a stable and wealthy life rely on the hard work of two or three generations. Finally, I have the stable and prosperous life I have now.

In Le Wen's view, this kind of thing is something that many people at the bottom want to achieve, but what to get ahead, many people at the bottom have never thought about it, they only want to go outside when they are young, and then It must be possible to stand out.

There are many people who leave the bottom with such confidence, but things often go against their wishes, and they finally have to return to the bottom after a few years of wandering.

Le Wen often advises some young people that instead of going out to areas with a big gap with their own birth class, it is better to do something solid in the lower areas. If you do it for three to five years, it will not be bad, especially In today's relatively fair age, if you work harder, there will be a way out.

If Section 10 didn't allow it, Lewen planned to set up the company's headquarters directly on the ground floor. In the end, Section 10 found a more suitable building for them.

Escaping cannot solve the problem. Looking at Le Wen's worried face, Su Xin also noticed that there are fewer and fewer young people on the street recently.

"I'm thinking that if our children will live here in the future, it would be nice if this place can be better than it is now."

Levin smiled helplessly.

"As long as he is happy, just work hard, regardless of success or failure, I think a happy life is the best."

Su Xin hummed, she looked at the middle and upper floors in the distance, and smiled with her hands on her chin. Su Li still came down to look for them from time to time in these years, but it has completely disappeared in recent years. If there is any entanglement in the family, the choice back then was correct. Over the years, there have been no major differences or quarrels with her husband, Le Wen. The husband and wife have always loved each other very much.

"By the way, shall we go to the middle floor to watch a movie tonight?"

Le Wen asked a question, Su Xin thought for a while and looked through the movie list for a while, then said with a smile.

"Just watch "The Phantom of the Castle."

Le Wen saw that it was a horror movie made at a low cost, and smiled helplessly. His wife still likes these thrilling and scary movies, and she would watch them alone at home from time to time. As a result, when Le Wen came back at night, Su Xin was already in the house. Waiting at the door, seems to be frightened.

The meal ended while talking and laughing with the boss, and the couple planned to go directly to the ring street on the middle floor for a stroll.

After 20 minutes, the two left the subway station and came to the middle-level circular street full of people. This place is currently a new commercial area in the middle-level. If you want to visit the entire circular street, two or three days are not enough.

At this moment, some people approached. They seemed to be mutant bodyguards. Le Wen looked at it with some doubts. It was a high-level businessman named Paul. He had come to find Le Wen many times before.

"Hello, Mr. Lewen, why are you here?"

Le Wen said that he took his wife to watch a movie, and Paul smiled and pointed to a large-scale store that was being renovated not far away.

"My store is about to open tonight, how about having a meal together, Mr. Le Wen."

Le Wen still refused, Paul was a little helpless, but he still held Le Wen's hand and said something.

"Our boss treats you to dinner, let's save face."

A younger bodyguard muttered something. Paul's expression was slightly complicated. Le Wen shook his head and was about to leave. At this time, the bodyguard came directly to stop Le Wen.

The atmosphere on the scene was a bit dignified, and Paul hurried over to pull the bodyguard away.

"Uncle, why are you talking nonsense with this guy, how about leaving it to me, I promise he will agree."

Paul glanced at his nephew.

"If you want to die, go ahead, the people in Section 2 are always watching them."

As Paul spoke, his nephew swallowed and looked around with a slightly serious expression. Paul sighed helplessly. He was very confident in the new technology in Lewen's hands and hoped to invest, but was rejected by Lewen. Wen declined, and at this moment more than a dozen people came over, and one of them directly took out his ID.

"Several gentlemen, please follow me to the local security management station to assist in the investigation."

Paul's expression became serious, and his nephew, who was a little arrogant just now, also showed fear at this time. Paul hurriedly explained that he had indeed sent people to find Le Wen many times in the past few days, just to talk about cooperation, and nothing else the goal of.

"Please come back with us to assist in the investigation. If there is any purpose, we will investigate first. I hope you will cooperate."

In the end, Paul could only leave with five bodyguards surrounded by a bunch of Section 5 personnel.

At this time, a person in charge of Section 2 who followed Le Wen immediately sent a report. Their team of 100 people was responsible for keeping an eye on Le Wen, the main scientist. The technology in his hands was very important. They were asked to Follow the Lewen couple 24 hours a day.

A group of people who were close to Le Wen and his wife conducted investigations. Paul, the businessman who had just contacted Le Wen, had contacted Le Wen many times, and even sent someone to contact the local gang members, as if he wanted to plan something secretly.

All of this is already under the control of Section 2, and at this time, on a certain street on the ground floor, hundreds of people from Section 5 broke into an entertainment club, and more than 30 gangsters squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands. know what's going wrong.

The local officer looked at the leader with a complicated expression.

"What exactly do you want to do? Didn't I say that you must never interfere with the lives of ordinary people and threaten them? Is there something wrong with your brain?"

The leader didn't know what happened at all, but after seeing some people from Division 2, he realized that the matter was serious, and immediately said that he really didn't know anything. After a while, the leader saw a person His capable men were arrested.

"I really don't dare, really"

"Sir, you are currently suspected of urban endangerment. If you have any accomplices, please confess immediately."

The boss looked at this subordinate in horror, and it took him a while to realize that this kid had previously traded with a certain businessman, intending to do harm to a certain scientist living in the area, and he had already collected money.

"This matter has nothing to do with me. I don't know anything about it. I need to find a lawyer."

The leader shouted immediately, but they were still handcuffed by the people from Section 2. They would be escorted directly to Section 2 for trial. Everyone knew that if they entered Section 2, they would lose half their lives even if they came out.

The officer was a little puzzled, and a member of Section 2 said at this time.

"Officer Zhang Yong, I hope you can inform some other restless gang members that the scientist is currently researching a substance that is extremely important to the city. We have received orders to protect his safety at all costs and not to be harassed .”

Zhang Yong immediately nodded understandingly. He knew they were talking about Le Wen, and then all the gang members were taken away. In Zhang Yong's view, many of them really didn't know, but in front of Section 2, unless they are interrogated , They will not believe what these words say.
