Spy Family

Chapter 25 Light Industry and Agriculture

The third uncle only once talked about his actual combat experience, The sound of the gun is very small, you don't know where the bullet will come from, everything happens in an instant, you are fully alert, you use what you have learned all your life, and in the end you can survive. , but just because of luck. My luck was not too bad. I was hit not long after the battle started, but I escaped from the vital point and fainted. I perfectly missed the more brutal exchange of shots in the second half, and then encountered another technique. Superb doctor.”

Not everyone is so lucky, as eight farm boys died on the spot without a chance to tell their experiences.

Director Yong, who was commanding the battle, bore the greatest responsibility, and the old director also had to bear the reputation of being unsafe at night. His remaining energy was only enough to burn two eyes, and it couldn't last long. He had to lower his eyes to rest after saying a few words. After a while, the listener must carefully figure out the old director's thoughts and choose to wait or retreat.

Mei Qianzhong coughed slightly and motioned for everyone to leave with him.

In the small hall outside, Mei Qianzhong whispered: Uncle San will come tomorrow. We can't just wait and start working first...

A middle-aged woman came over holding a tray with several drinks on it, and said with a smile: It's so rare that there are so many guests, the old director has even forgotten how to treat guests.

Why bother Aunt Su? Mei Qianzhong looked particularly respectful. He picked up the drink cup with both hands and passed it around one by one to ensure that everyone had one.

The woman held the empty tray to her side and said, It's already dawn. It's hard for you to stay here all night, even for young people. I'll go find the old director and ask him to let you go. I think he will forget about this matter. ”

Mei Qianzhong smiled and said: The old director stayed with us all night, he worked hard.

He is so old that he is no different from a living corpse. He doesn't know sleepiness or hardship. The woman was the only person in the room who spoke with a normal tone. She pushed the door into the kitchen and said sternly: No more. Aren’t you going to get some sleep while you drink coffee?”

The kitchen door closed, and Mei Wangzhen said to Lu Linbei in a very low voice: Personal assistant.

Oh. Lu Linbei thought this was the old director's wife or daughter.

After a while, Aunt Su came out of the kitchen and said, The old director said that the others can leave. There are two young newcomers who he wants to see again.

Mei Qianzhong drank the rest of the drink in one gulp, returned the cup to Aunt Su, and said with a smile: Aunt Su made the drink herself, right? It's still so delicious. What's the secret recipe?

Where's the secret recipe? Just use whatever you have at home.

Mei Qianzhong gently pushed Lu Linbei and Lu Yezhou on the backs and said goodbye to Aunt Su.

Everyone drank their drinks without leaving a drop, and returned their glasses to the trays.

Lu Linbei and Lu Yezhou returned to the kitchen, still standing at the door, feeling somewhat apprehensive.

The old director is the emergency department and a legend on the farm. The two of them had seen him from a distance and thought they would have to struggle for at least ten years before they had the opportunity to have such close contact with the old director.

The coffee in front of the old director was gone, leaving only the farm model. He lay on the table like a child, observing carefully, occasionally moving pedestrians or vehicles, as if he was restoring a certain scene in his memory.

Why is 'Guangye Farm' called 'Farm'? The old director asked a strange question without raising his head.

Lu Linbei had some understanding of this, but chose to shake his head and said, Not sure.

Lu Yezhou also said I don't know.

The old director, who had just experienced a disastrous defeat that could shake his position and had been awake all night, was already exhausted. At this time, he seemed to be a different person. He raised his head, showed a slightly excited smile, and then stood up with his hands on the table. , pointed at the model and clicked a few times, obviously preparing for a long speech.

Because there are many similarities between the light industry and agriculture: first of all, they need to tidy up the land, agriculture is to loosen the soil, and the light industry is to compact it; secondly, they both need to sow seeds, and for light industry, it means various settings , automated power generation, storage, production, and regeneration; they all need sunlight, which is especially important for the light industry. Agriculture needs water, and so does the light industry, as well as iron ore and silicon; seeds will germinate, branch, and grow. Leaves, and then produce new seeds, continue to replicate and expand, and the cycle starts over and over again. The process of Guangye Farm is exactly the same. As long as enough electricity is saved, a new set of automated equipment will be produced and expanded to distant areas that meet the conditions.

The old director sighed with satisfaction, as if he had just made a great speech.

Lu Yezhou felt that he should say something, so he said: It's really the same.

Of course, it's exactly the same. Early humans had their own greatness. Three hundred years later, we have surpassed the ancients in many aspects. However, in terms of Guangye Farm, we have made very little progress and even regressed. Because this set is too designed. Perfect, not much room for improvement!”

Original point. Lu Linbei whispered, only feeling inappropriate after saying it.

What did you say? the old director asked, looking directly at the young man for the first time.

The origin, Guangye Farm is the origin of mankind. We are distributed around it, and most people feel comfortable, so they are unwilling to open up a new origin.

The old director sat down and nodded slowly, It can be explained this way. To me, Guangye Farm is a miracle, and it has an important similarity with agriculture. Do you understand?

I don't understand. Lu Linbei thought it was better to remain ignorant.

In order to survive, primitive humans need to constantly hunt, collect, plant, and develop new food sources and production methods. Every time they find one, it is a revolution. However, such progress is getting slower and slower, and one may be even more Important revolutions are quietly brewing that will ultimately solve humanity's food problem.

The old director hesitated and remained silent for a long time. It was not until the faces of the two young people showed confusion that he continued: That is food storage. Compared with the progress of food production, the progress of food storage is quiet, generation after generation. Accumulation, finally, the accumulated food can cover the gap between two harvests, and later, it can cover two famines and two natural disasters... The longer the gap is covered, the stronger human beings' ability to survive. Therefore, storage is the same as production. important.

Lu Yezhou nodded desperately and motioned for Lu Linbei to nod with him.

Human beings have gone through a similar path when it comes to energy issues, only later. For a long time, human beings have focused on producing energy because it can produce immediate results. New energy sources emerge in endlessly, especially nuclear energy, which has high hopes. However, Hundreds of years later, nuclear energy is still just a supplement, because compared with the optical industry, it can never avoid safety issues, but safety is not the most important reason for the victory of the optical industry. What truly makes the optical industry irreplaceable is the battery. The technology that really solves the problem and allows humans to develop new planets is not some new energy source, but also batteries.”

Battery is a storage method. When its storage capacity can cover two power generation troughs, it breaks through an important threshold and a qualitative change occurs. Like food storage, the longer the period covered by the battery, the more stable the energy and the higher the cost. Low-cost, slowly, it can cover two natural disasters, two man-made disasters, two accidents...

This is how automated light farms gain a foothold on a desolate planet, producing energy, storing energy, and then replicating the next farm. Of course, technology is always not enough. No matter how advanced the battery is, there are cycles that cannot be covered. Many farms, it should be said Most of the farms have been destroyed by violent winds, floods, earthquakes and other disasters that have not happened in decades or even centuries, and even no seeds have been left. Humans cannot live on such a planet. If unfortunately they choose to move to such a planet, they can only live with the farms. Die.”

There is a saying that 'the morning fungus does not know the new moon's darkness'. The cycle of the morning fungus is too short and cannot see the coming of night. Guangye Farm, various institutions and departments, and even human beings themselves, all have cycles. Once this cycle grows beyond Cognition means destruction.”

The old director fell into talking to himself and seemed to have forgotten the two young people at the other end of the long table.

My original dream was to run a farm. I was interested in everything about the farm, and I also had a little ambition. I hoped to add a brick or a tile to the optical technology. If by chance, I could increase the storage capacity of the farm to the next threshold. , I will have no regrets in this life.”

But fate had other plans for me. It asked me to come to the Emergency Department and manage this organization. For me, the Emergency Department can also be regarded as a light industry farm. It also has production and storage. The two work together to Dealing with the crisis cycle. In the past few decades, I have done pretty well, but if I think about it carefully, maybe I am just lucky and just in the middle of a very long cycle. 'The bacteria in the dynasty do not know the secrets', and I cannot see some things. arrive.

Lu Linbei and Lu Yezhou became more and more uneasy as they listened. No matter how much they understood, they could hear a strong sense of sadness and negativity in the old director's words.

Young man, are you looking for Guangye power generation panels or high-density batteries? Give me an answer.

Lu Yezhou waited for Lu Linbei to answer first, but when he saw that he didn't speak, he said, I think it's...the power panel, because...

The old director may not have wanted to answer, but he said to himself: Someone recommended you to me, saying that you have great potential. Potential needs to be developed slowly in peacetime, but now is a wartime, and the situation may become worse in the future. The worse, so what skills do you have that can make me shine immediately?

Lu Yezhou didn't speak this time. He couldn't say that he was the best at playing games.

After a long time, Lu Linbei replied: If we can't survive, there is no need to answer. If we can survive, I hope that one day, we can sit down and answer this question carefully.

Well, I will prepare a cake for you, maybe... Although you are interstellar orphans, and the mother who raised you, if you die, I will personally notify her.

The old director continued to look at the models. Lu Linbei bowed and quietly exited the kitchen with Lu Yezhou. There was no one in the small hall outside, and the two of them quietly left through the side door.

It was already bright outside. Lu Yezhou held it in for too long, took two long deep breaths, and then asked in a low voice: What does the old director mean by these words? I understand that the situation is not good, but there must be a specific reference to these words, right? Does it mean that we are trustworthy and we hope that we can help the Emergency Department tide over the difficulties?

Lu Linbei shook his head, The old director is saying that the Emergency Department is facing unprecedented changes, and past experience cannot be used.

What should we do?

Before Lu Linbei could answer, Mei Qianzhong poked his head out of a car parked on the street and waved. The two of them quickly walked over and entered the back row.

Uncle San hasn't arrived yet, but the order has already come. Mei Qianzhong laughed, turned around, and used an instrument to unlock the chips in the two people's bodies. Look at the news. This is called the treasured sword.

No need to search, there is only one online news hotspot, mapped on the retina:

3142 interstellar orphan heirs have been confirmed!
