Planetary Museum

Wang Youquan woke up first.

He found himself sitting in the cab of the excavator with his luggage on the side, and the surrounding environment was like the wilderness as Professor Shen said at the dinner table.

Wang Youquan got out of the car, and first went to look at Xu Yan who was next door. He didn't seem to wake up yet, he was still snoring while sleeping, and his saliva was dripping down, ruining more than half of his good suit.

"Xu Yan, Xu Yan." Wang Youquan went to pat his face. After a few seconds, Xu Yan reacted and opened his eyes reluctantly, but because he was facing the sun, he raised his hand to cover it.

After a while, Xu Yan woke up and got out of the car, subconsciously asked Wang Youquan: "Master Wang, where is this?"

"Didn't you look at the map yesterday? This is the place marked on the map. Our future construction site, let's go and see our tent first."

The terrain here is also simple, nothing more than three slopes, one exit, a small stream in the middle, and a standard small valley.They walked downstream along the direction of the creek for more than ten minutes, and soon found the supply point mentioned on the map.

Sleeping tents, bottled water, all kinds of canned food, self-heating rice... There are a lot of things, Wang Youquan took some things without saying anything, and planned to move some of them there first, so as to get the sleeping place up first.Xu Yan seemed a little hesitant, and suggested, "Why don't you drive over to help transport it."

"Driving a car? The oil in the car is for our work. You really consider yourself the boss." Wang Youquan is the team leader appointed by Shen Changwen and the "person in charge" of this project. He directly ordered Xu Yan, "Don't Stop talking nonsense, move quickly, and hurry up to work later, finish it early, so we can go back early."

It took the two of them more than an hour to set up a campsite, and then familiarized themselves with the condition of the vehicle. Then Wang Youquan began to use lime powder to delineate the work area on the ground.

He marked out a place first, and asked Xu Yan to try it first. After confirming that it met the standards of the design drawing, he started to mark other areas.

Although there is no one to supervise, this is not a city after all, and neither of them brought their mobile phones with them, so there is really nothing else to do except work.So one was surveying the terrain, planning the work in detail, and the other was trying to start the work. It was not a complicated job, but it seemed to be orderly.

Only when the two of them had dinner at noon did they have the opportunity to talk to each other.

"Master Wang, what do you think this project is for?" Xu Yan ate a can of braised beef, looked at the crescent-shaped grass that he had never seen before, and looked at it again. The row of holes they dug in the morning, "Where are we? Why do you think they are doing this thing here?"

Wang Youquan just focused on watching the fire. He was cooking rice with firewood, and he was not used to the taste of self-heating rice.He heard Xu Yan's words, and he had the same doubts, but he still didn't want to say more, because the more he said, the more troubles the two of them would have.

It's better to work quickly, finish the work here as soon as possible, and then go home.

"By the way..." After eating two more mouthfuls of canned braised beef, Xu Yan suddenly said, "Master Wang, have you heard of Project 2160?"

"No, eat well, dig out the area to the east after eating, and have plenty of time to chat in the evening."

In the afternoon, the two of them just worked with their heads bored. They only used a walkie-talkie to communicate with each other, and they also talked about work.The work progress of the two was very fast. Although they didn't bring a clock, Wang Youquan knew from experience that they had worked for at least five hours. It stands to reason that the sun should be setting by now...

However, it is a little strange that the sun in front of me seems to be an hour or two away from the ground.

But the stomachs of the two would not lie, and they were indeed both hungry.Wang Youquan still decided to get some compressed biscuits to deal with it first, and then eat a hot meal when it really gets dark...

At this time, Wang Youquan's heart was already getting a little hairy, and he began to feel that something was really wrong here.

In fact, when they first came in the morning, Wang Youquan had already discovered some details, such as the weather here. It was only the end of February when they came, and the weather was bitingly cold, and a little wind outside was unbearable.But when I got here, although the wind was strong, I didn't feel cold at all. On the contrary, I felt a little too much and a little hot. The temperature was more like autumn than early spring.

There are also some plants growing on the ground by the creek. Wang Youquan grew up in a small village, but he can't recognize the flowers and plants he sees now. On the contrary, the dog's tail grass that can be seen everywhere on the earth, He didn't see a single one.

But after all, Wang Youquan is a person who has experienced it. He knows the seriousness. It is not that he has never been in touch with ghosts and ghosts before. It doesn't matter, money, being able to get the money in his hand, these are the reasons why he came here.As long as the money is given, even if he is asked to drive the excavator to dig the Lingxiao Palace of the Jade Emperor, he will not hesitate in the slightest.

In the evening, the two of them began to rest, and there was still some light in the car. Wang Youquan asked Xu Yan to find some firewood and come back. He adjusted the position of the two excavators and blocked them from the upper air outlet. The wind blows more and more. , he was afraid that the tent would not be able to bear it.After adjusting the excavator, he also used a hammer to strengthen the ground nails of the tent.

When Xu Yan came back, he didn't have much firewood, but he picked up a lot of coal.He said that just a little further past the place where they took supplies, there was a slope below, and there were ready-made lumps of coal.

Wang Youquan looked at the coal and couldn't laugh or cry: "We're just cooking a meal, why are you picking up so much coal?"

"Can't coal be burned?" Xu Yan obviously has no common sense in life.

"Then try to use it to cook." Even secondary processed products such as briquettes need to be lit on the road for more than ten minutes. It is no different from stones. Before the coals are burning, they are eating and preparing to put out the fire.

After the fire was built, the pot was put on, and when the rice was cooked, Xu Yan started to ask again: "Master Wang, do you remember the question I asked you during the day?"

"what."

"Do you know Project 2160?"

"Tell me about it." While listening, Wang Youquan took out a deck of playing cards from the pocket inside his clothes, and dealt them to himself on the ground.

"Do you know Area 51 in the United States?" Xu Yan asked mysteriously, "During the Cold War with the Soviet Union in the last century, why did two such big countries desperately plan for Star Wars? Because they discovered aliens on Earth. Star."

Wang Youquan hummed, but subconsciously counted the remaining cards in his hand.He has dealt 48 cards, and now he should have 5 of hearts and 6 of diamonds left in his hand. If he asks for another card, the possibility of a straight will be very high... How to calculate the probability... Well, it should be, and at the same time raise...

Thinking this way, he sent himself another card, which was the 9 of spades. It was a mistake, a mistake... If it really came to the table, it might cost thousands more.

"Later, China developed, the Chinese landed on the moon, and then discovered aliens, which led to the 2160 plan. Do you know why China suddenly let go of the second child now? China now has 15 billion people, why Too little? Because we will emigrate to alien planets soon. Do you know about the Silk Road? Everyone knows that sea transportation is cheaper than land transportation, so why do we insist on building trains for land transportation.

Do you know the first cosmic velocity?If we build a train in the future, the speed is so fast that it can exceed the speed of the first universe, then we can fly directly along the rails to outer space.But to reach this speed, it takes a long train track to accelerate. Where is the largest landmass on earth?Eurasia, from Shanghai all the way to Paris, do you think this track is enough..."

Once Xu Yan started talking, a string of jargon was thrown out like he didn’t want money, from aliens to Einstein’s theory of relativity, from national strategy to investing in the future, until the rice was cooked, Wang Youquan told him When the meal was served, I came to the main point: "Start investing now, as long as you insist on investing 1000 yuan a month, you can get 2 million out of the game after 200 years, or directly change to a place to immigrate to an alien planet. Persist in 5 years and you can bring all the money." immediate family members...until 2160, when aliens will descend on the earth, and all investors will be able to live forever..."

Wang Youquan knew the details of Xu Yan, and he didn't believe this set of things at all: "Then how long have you invested in it now?"

"Just over a year."

"Then if you borrow another 1 yuan, won't you be able to wait for 200 million yuan? You have [-] yuan for relocation expenses, right? Then why are you still doing this job?"

"No, my goal is not 2 million yuan in 200 years. 200 million yuan is nothing. You can't even buy a house now. Every citizen of the People's Republic of China has only this investment opportunity in his life. Of course, he must grasp it well. I plan to invest in 5 years 1200 million."

"Then counting the salary of this project, you are only less than [-] yuan short, right?" Wang Youquan asked.

"Yes."

"Then let's take a gamble, you know I can get 2000 yuan after I finish this project," Wang Youquan said, picking up the playing cards in his hand, "I'll just bet [-] yuan, and you can draw three from these cards at will. I only draw one card, and if one of your three cards is bigger than mine, the [-] yuan will belong to you. On the other hand, as long as I am bigger than yours, you only need to give me [-] yuan, which is very easy. Is it a good deal?"

Xu Yan shook his head, resolutely rejected the temptation, and said righteously: "The 2160 project is a great cause at the national strategic level, and it is the greatest opportunity for the rise of the Chinese nation in the past 5000 years. It cannot be realized by opportunistic methods like gambling. Gambling is zero-sum Gaming cannot create real wealth for society.”

Wang Youquan silently pawed at the rice and vegetables in his mouth, not wanting to deal with this psycho again.Xu Yan also seemed to see Wang Youquan's stubbornness and distrust, but he firmly believed that as long as he persisted, Wang Youquan would eventually be convinced. Just when he was about to organize his words again and launch a second wave of offensive, he found that Wang Youquan was looking at him with his mouth wide open. He was still slowly stuffing rice and braised beef in his mouth, but at this moment he seemed to have completely forgotten them and the instinct of chewing.

"What you said just now, the 2160 project, is where the immigrants are going?" When Wang Youquan spoke, his mouth opened and closed, as if his jaw was cramped. It looked extremely unnatural, as if what he stuffed in his mouth was not rice, but It's dynamite, it's as if his mouth will explode if he doesn't speak correctly.

"A sun 27 light-years away, where the sun is 12 times larger than ours."

"Where's the Earth over there?"

"There are seven habitable planets out there, each larger than Earth."

"How many moons are there?"

"This...you won't know until you go back and check the information." Xu Yan did not remember that clearly.

"No need, look back, have we been selected by the country to participate in this project?"

Xu Yan turned his head back, then raised his head again in surprise, and his neck was the same as Wang Youquan's mouth, as if someone had tapped half of the acupuncture points, completely forgetting the instinct to move.Only the eyes were left working desperately in the whole body, staring back and forth desperately at the four bright moons in the sky, four round moons as big as silver plates.
