Entrepreneurship in a different world

"It seems that both 'conservatives' and 'innovatives' will eventually become realistic." When Mo Shi came back at night, Wen Rong informed him of the result.

Mohi was a little dazed.He didn't expect the final situation to turn into this: "The thing they have insisted on for so many years has been revealed so easily?"

"Do you feel a little aggrieved?" Wen Rong could understand his psychology. More than 100 years ago, their family advocated letting nature take its course, actively guiding people to adapt to the "change" of their own physique, and preparing the whole people for a new evolutionary development path. Those people strongly opposed it and tried every means to suppress it.

More than 100 years later, facing this group of barefoot believers who are not afraid of wearing shoes, they are forced to take the initiative to reveal the secrets that have been covered up for many years.This shows that they are not really unable to choose to take this path, but they were not forced to do so at the time.

"It's so boring." Moshi smacked his lips and said resentfully.

"They have no other way. In order to stabilize the hearts of the people, consolidate their authority, and demonstrate their strength, they must do so. It can only be said that you at that time lacked the conditions to trigger this inevitable trend." Wen Rong and him Sitting shoulder to shoulder, he persuaded him intimately, "In addition, for them at that time, under the premise that they could not predict what the future would be like, it was safer to go back to the original road than the road they had never taken before. Until They have tasted the result of their 'double standards' treatment of the public, and now they really can't hide it, so they can only make up for it before their credibility has completely dropped to the lowest point."

It's worthy of playing Z rule for so many years.Wen Rong actually admired the decisive attitude of those chief executives on this matter.In fact, this time is the best opportunity for the authorities to actively reveal the secret.Because of the foreshadowing of several similar incidents in the past, most of the people did not believe it at first, a small number of people believed it half a year ago, many people were dubious, and then these days... most of the people have chosen to believe it.If the officials still cover it up, treat it like nothing happened, and solve it in secret, it will be detrimental to their future governance.

It is the best time and solution for the government to reveal this secret that has been sealed for many years when there are criminals who provoke social order. If you miss this opportunity, even if the problem is solved this time, the chaos and chaos will be solved. Distrust has already left a mark in the hearts of ordinary people, and the next time it happens again, the backlash will be even stronger.

Moshi no longer thinks about this issue, let's just reveal it. Originally, he expected to reveal the truth to the bewildered public in two or three years, so that people can understand the real world around them.

Now that it happened ahead of schedule, it is a good thing for their plan.

"Our 'source of water' and 'vigorous vegetables' can increase production and expand sales channels and audience." This is the first thing Moshi thought of at this time.

Wen Rong stared sideways at his face for two seconds, and finally only replied: "...Indeed." Previously, these two products of theirs were mainly provided to the few descendants of the 'awakened' outside.Only in a few super first-tier cities are there sales stores for civilians, but most of the goods sold in these stores are still bought by those descendants.

In fact, judging from some of the feedback obtained from the use of these two commodities by ordinary people in "Nishia City", consuming them in large quantities for a long time can indeed stimulate the potential of some people so that they have the opportunity to "awaken". The 'Nishia City Guard' has received some fresh blood every month in recent months, basically they are ordinary people who have suddenly 'awakened' recently.If these two things are widely spread among the general public outside... what will happen?

If Moshi had been unkind and had spread these two things out earlier, then the outside world might have been messed up.What he has been waiting for is that the common people know this secret first, and understand what the "awakened person" and "awakening power" are before he is willing to truly spread those things. Of course, he is mainly for the stability of the society. the stability of the people.

Not wanting to worry about those things outside, Wen Rong took the initiative to change the topic: "Did you find anything else in that cave?"

"Yes! In addition to the tower and the Chuan mine, we are still excavating five other sealed underground caves." Speaking of these, Mo Shi regained some interest, "In addition, Fan Di has initially determined some The thing is, the small underground tower and black stone should be used to absorb energy. We found that most of the geothermal energy of the 'Leus' volcano was absorbed by this stone, and it is precisely because of this that the active The volcano has been dormant for a long time, and only erupted again a few days ago. According to their estimates, the original mountain range of the 'Liusi' volcano contains extremely rich geothermal energy. If most of the energy is not absorbed, it will really erupt. When the explosion occurs, the resulting energy will directly affect us. It is precisely because I don’t know who set up such a collection device under there. After a long period of absorption, the last eruption only affected the surrounding area. within the diameter range."

"Who the hell set up the collection device?" Wen Rong was also motivated by this discovery.

Moshi shook his head slowly: "There is no definite answer to this question, but according to Fan Di, no matter who they are, their technological capabilities surpass what Fan Di currently has, and of course, far exceed the current human society outside. technological development."

An idea suddenly popped into Wen Rong's mind: "It can't be an alien civilization, right?" He didn't know if the people here had the concept of 'alien', so he just used the term 'alien civilization' conservatively.

"...It's possible." Moshi immediately understood what he was talking about and responded positively.

It seems that their world is also a world that believes in the existence of 'foreign civilizations'.Think about it, the current overall technological level of their outside world is higher than that of Wen Rong's previous world, and they should have had similar concepts long ago, not to mention that they have superhumans like "awakened people" who have appeared before, and their open-mindedness may be It will also be higher.

"Tomorrow, I will take Fan Di to the mining area and ask those 'earth dwellers' about the situation. Perhaps, the earthquake we discovered may be the ruins left by their ancestors." During their excavation in the past few days In the process, Mo Shi felt more and more that the entrances of those caves were similar to the entrances of the underground villages of the 'Didwellers' he had been to before, so he still needed to verify it.

It was not peaceful outside the past few days, but now that it has subsided, it is also convenient to travel.

"Can I follow?" Wen Rong grabbed his arm and shook it gently.

Moshi thought for a few seconds, then nodded and agreed: "By the way, take the little ones with you."

Wen Rong knew why he did this.After all, Er Bao was frightened and had nightmares for several nights. Wen Rong had to carry him to his bedroom to sleep when he was dreaming. Dad's can't favor one over another, so he can only call them all over.

In the past few nights, in the master bedroom of their house, there are two big beds together again, and the family of seven sleeps together.During the day, the little ones didn't want to go to school, so they looked for various opportunities to get close to Wen Rong.

It happened to be their regular study time at this moment, and they were taken to study by Tang Na, so they didn't come together.Although Papa Wen allowed them to take a few days off from school, he didn't let them relax completely.Even if you don't go to school, you still have to study at home.Early the next morning, they set off to the mining area.

Mining districts, like individual cities, have their own autonomy.Because of its vast territory, it is divided into several cities, and it is difficult to call it a specific city, so the areas where these cities are located are called mining areas.

As the name suggests, it is rich in mineral deposits.Entering the mining area requires additional procedures. If you are not cooperating with the mining area, you must find a guarantor. This is why Moshi and the others came in last time and found Yiyang.

Mrs. Yi Yang is also an official in the 'United Council', he can go through the formalities and be a guarantor.

This time they come again, there is no need for a new guarantor.

"The last time we sold a set of security system services, we sold them to the mining area." Mo Shi was explaining to Wen Rong why they came in unimpeded just now, "After that, I got the status of a partner in the mining area."

Wen Rong is looking around at this place, the surface here is full of potholes, very much like the picture of the features of the 'moon's surface' in his impression.From the moment I arrived here, it felt like I was on another planet.

"It's... so different here." He sighed.Every city and every area has its own distinct characteristics. The desolate, vast, and cold feeling of the mining area is more like another world.

The function of vehicle suspension is eliminated here, and all incoming vehicles have restored their original function: running on the ground.

After running a certain distance to reach the real mining operation base, the purpose of entry is various large, medium and small models of engineering vehicles, as well as towering drilling towers, booms and other tools.

Their car drove all the way to the depths of the most desolate unmanned mining area, and they were stopped for routine questioning every time they passed an operation base.

I heard them say they were going to no-man's land, and the miners who came to inspect persuaded them: "It's better not to go to that area, where several local operating teams disappeared some time ago..."

After thanking these workers who kindly reminded them, they still set off towards the deepest point.

The cubs are very happy to be brought out to meet the world by adults. Since the incident happened a few days ago, the cubs are even more reluctant to have their two fathers leave them for business trips. They prefer to be taken by adults on business trips together like now.

"In those unmanned mining areas, there are very few mine owners to mine. How could several operating teams suddenly disappear?" What the miners said just now aroused Kuo Mo's curiosity.

This is also what Moshi is thinking about: "When they purchased our security system service project before, they once said that they had an internal accident for several months, which may be referring to this."

When their car drove for several hours to their destination, they were dumbfounded by the sight that appeared in their eyes.

This is supposed to be an unmanned area, but hundreds of caves, large and small, have been excavated on the ground, some of which have been filled up, and some are exposed outside, and these exposed mines can always be seen There are several tens of meters deep, winding passages, and some of these passages were buried halfway through the digging.

Kuo Mo and Mo Shi, who had been here before, quickly exchanged glances.wrong!This posture doesn't feel like it's mining, but... digging something else.

"Sir! This is near the passage to the 'Earth Dwellers' we dug last time." Kuo Mo quickly glanced at the surrounding environment, and judged: "...someone is looking for them."

Wen Rong felt that the atmosphere was not right, and asked the children to sit in the car and not get off, but he and Fan Di did not get off either.They watched Moshi and Kuomo get off the car, searched for a while near the passages of different depths, found a broken passage, and began to unblock it.

After a while, Kuo Mo came back to take them, and walked down the irregular passage that was temporarily dredged. Moshi opened the way in front, and they followed carefully.

Fan Di turned on the lighting device he carried with him to illuminate the road ahead for Wen Rong.

Wen Rong hugged Xiao Wubao and Xiao Sibao who were more excited than him in her arms, especially Xiao Wubao. She was naturally interested in these dark places, and she was sleepy all the way before. As soon as Er'er was on the ground, she immediately became more excited, and made a little noise from time to time. With her, Wen Rong became less nervous after getting used to it for a while.

After continuing to walk for a while, the surrounding air suddenly became sticky and smelly, several cubs pinched their noses, Sibao pinched his own nose and turned his head to help his father pinch it.

When the bright white light behind him turned a corner ahead, it shone on something mixed in the thick soil beside him. Wen Rong was shocked, and instinctively wanted to cover the two cubs in his arms Who would have expected these two to have discovered it earlier than him, the little girl in their family pointed at the squashed human body in the soil layer, 'Oh? ' With a sound, the alarm was sounded.There was no sign of fear at all.

Kuo Mo stopped and squinted his eyes to look in the surrounding soil layer: "Sir, those missing miners seem to be left here."

Mo Shi knew about it early in the morning when he opened the way ahead, and said lightly: "There are more ahead. They didn't have an accident, but they stayed here after being killed. It should be the people who hired them." Do it."

In the case of 'terrestrials', the corpse would be thrown back to the ground.As the aborigines here, the 'earth dwellers' have a set of rules for getting along with the surrounding environment and humans on the ground. They will not leave the people on the ground underground, and their homes are below.Generally, if it is a miner who died unexpectedly, the body will be found strangely on the ground in another place after a period of time. This is also one of the "spiritual stories" in their mining area.

"Kuo Mo, something may have happened." Mo Shi said in a deep voice, "There are a lot of corpses here, although it is still far away from the living area of ​​the 'Earth Dwellers', if the 'Earth Dwellers' find out, they will still be dead." Will send them back to the surface, to eliminate the possibility of being disturbed by humans excavating their homes."

"You mean, they either didn't find these corpses, or they didn't want to deal with them, or...they just couldn't deal with them?" Kuo Mo immediately caught up with his thinking speed.

The first two assumptions are basically impossible to establish, and the most likely is the third situation - there is no way to deal with it. The 'Earth Dwellers' live deep underground in this area all year round. What happened to make them unable to deal with this?

Kuo Mo went forward to help Moshi to clear it together. After bypassing this passage, they cleared it to the real passage leading to the residence of the 'Earth Dweller'.

Kuo Mo clearly remembered that when they left here before, they had blown up these passages, but looking at it now, these passages were obviously enlarged, and there were traces of mechanical excavation all around.This shows that after they left, someone found this passage, re-expanded and opened it.

Mo Shi immediately thought of the only guy who could do this: "It's Yi Yang."

Kuo Mo still can't accept the fact that Yi Yang has two other identities: "How come?" Although he is not satisfied that Yi Yang and Sha Hua didn't follow Mo Shi all the way to "sleep" together, after all, they once fought side by side with him , just like the peacocks, they still have feelings to some extent.

"He is the only one who knows about this place other than us." Moshi inferred, "Last time he took the initiative to follow us all the way here, and he knows the precise coordinates here."

Kuo Mo recalled Yi Yang's act of insisting to accompany them last time. At that time, after completing the guarantor procedures, they had asked Yi Yang to wait outside the mining area. He must follow in, and when they went down, Yi Yang stayed here alone.

"He's also looking for 'Dijuren'? Why?" Moshi said to himself.

"Could it be that you also want the Chuan mine?" Fan Di interjected, "The reason why Mr. was able to discover the 'Didwelling Man' was in the process of searching for the Chuan mine. That thing is like the copper, iron and other metals that have changed before." It is the same as the level of science and technology of an era, and it will also be the basic metal minerals needed in the new era of science and technology."

Seeing that other people were staring at him deeply, Fan Di whispered more and more: Did he say something wrong?

"This is a great possibility." Wen Rong agreed.Mr. Fan Di used this metal in the process of building collection devices and launch towers. It is conceivable that this stuff plays a pivotal role in the new round of technological innovation.Wars in the new century are usually resource wars. If Yi Yang is really an ambitious guy, then it is absolutely possible for him to look for 'land dwellers' for resources.

It is possible to guess anything now, and the specifics can only be further judged by seeing it with your own eyes.

After working for several hours, they finally arrived at the residence of the 'Dijuren' along the complex underground passage that was artificially expanded and excavated.

'Dijuren' also has lighting equipment underground, which is a kind of lamp made of mineral oil.When I came here before, there would be "earth dwellers" with shining colorful eyes from a long distance to greet Moshi and guard him all the way.

Today, not only are the lights gone, even the owners of the eyes are gone.

This gathering place of 'Earth Dwellers' is about the size of the area of ​​'Ghost Cave', and a small village was built in the huge space below, with well-planned roads and houses of similar style.

They started checking from the first house, checked several rooms in one breath, and found that there was no one here.

"The tools are still at home, and the food hasn't been taken away..." Wen Rong flipped through the things left in the largest hut, and whispered, "Why don't I feel like I left here on my own initiative?"

Combined with all the situations they found when they came, the adults actually already had the answer in their hearts: the people here were forcibly taken away.

"The mines they kept are also gone." Moshi had been here twice before, and knew where they kept important supplies, and he also found something after inspection.

Then touch the dust that has fallen on all the furniture. This has been happening for at least several months.

Everyone separated to look for other valuable clues, and several youngsters were also released.The little ones offered to help the adults, and went to search in other small houses together.

After a while, Wen Rong and the others heard another alarm from Wubao: "Ah!"

Almost immediately, Moshi followed the sound and rushed to the direction where the sound came from.

At that time, he found that Sanbao was getting into a small water tank used to store things, and his two little claws were fiercely grabbing something and refused to let go.

Wen Rong ran over in one breath: "What's wrong?"

"There is a child!" Dabao described with dancing, "Just now when we came to this house, we found someone peeking at us from the tank. I deliberately put the biscuit on the ground, and ran out to hide. Then, there was a child I ran out from there and picked up our little biscuits... Sambo went to catch him, he ran so fast, he slid back, but Sambo was also quick and grabbed his leg!"

Mo Shi walked over and picked up the three treasures, and along the way he found out a little kid who was about the same age as the Wen family's kid.

The little kid was not afraid of being caught. His first reaction was to stuff several small biscuits into his mouth at once, bulging his cheeks with only a layer of skin left, his eyes widening and chewing hard.

"Father, his teeth are so sharp!" Erbao discovered the point.

Wen Rong listened to the forceful voice of 'Gaba Gaba', and his teeth ached a little.The small biscuits in their family have always been made by himself, and they are still harder and more tooth-resistant than those made in the factory. They are also casual snacks that everyone in their family likes.

Except for Kuo Mo and Mo Shi who usually eat by biting directly, even their little cubs are bit by bit at this stage. Gotta rattle.

His strength must be very strong, this is Wen Rong's subconscious thought.

When Moshi lifted the two little guys up, he glanced under the small water tank, where there was a narrow hole: "Kuomo, go down and have a look."

Before Kuo Mo smashed the water tank and went down to the tunnel below, several heads poked out from the hole one after another.

This time, in addition to cubs, there are teenagers, women and old people.
