Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 864 Six Days Countdown to Chen Yan's Return
Chen Yan took out Thomas Gilbert's cigarettes—now Chen Yan's cigarettes—it was a pack of cheap William Adams cigarettes, which were the lowest grade D cigarettes in the industrial products of William Adams Group. Made from the rotten leaves cut from the tobacco fields by the laziest tobacco farmers, the culprit of "smoker's lungs", the D-class cigarettes that only the lowest hooligans and beggars picking up cigarette butts on the street smoke, are now taken for granted by Chen Yan Handed it out.

The crow glanced sideways at the green mark on the cigarette holder indicating D-grade cigarettes, and opened his mouth without disgust.

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he put the cigarette holder in his mouth, and the crow held the cigarette holder.

The moment the cigarette holder touched the crow's mouth, synaesthesia occurred, but Chen Yan didn't see many clear pictures—this meant that the crow was a cautious and psychologically prepared person.

Chen Yan lit the fire for him, but he didn't cover it with his hands—in the smokers, when one person lights a cigarette for another, in order to show respect, the person being lit usually covers the fire with his hand, but The crow obviously didn't have such an action.

He therefore gave an explanation.

"My hands don't touch dirty things."

After the fireworks are lit, no matter how busy the smokers are, they will enjoy the precious few minutes before the butts burn out.

Crow smokes differently from other smokers. He always smokes with his mouth in his mouth and does not need to pinch the cigarette with his hands. So with his vague voice, the sparks on the cigarette butt trembled, and in the dim medicine room It looks like a dancing fire butterfly.

"It's been a long time since I smoked old D... I remember the first time I smoked old D with my brothers. It was still on a boat. At that time, I only smoked dry tobacco and had no experience with this foreign thing. Holding it in my hand was like holding a baby. Yes, one bite per person, while smoking and chatting about where to make money after landing, where to be chic, and be happy like a god." Crow's eyes showed reminiscence, and a touch of joy born of remembrance.

Chen Yan took a puff of cigarette, leaned against the wall while puffing, and said, "How long have you been in the empire."

Crow doesn't shy away from such things, and in fact there is nothing to shy away from: "It's been more than half a year, and I came here before the switch was turned on. Damn, I was cheated of a lot of money by the snakehead, so I don't have to suffer this crime a few months later. .”

Chen Yan sneered, and a puff of smoke was sprayed out: "A few months later... a few months later, I still suffer. I came here more than three months ago, and I was still tricked into buying a real estate by the snakehead. I almost lost money. clean."

The crow was smoking a cigarette, with a gratified and "I understand" smile on that ugly face, and said vaguely: "Hehe, grass."

A moment of silence.

The lingering smoke was sucked in by the exhaust fan on the ceiling of the medicine hut. Chen Yan watched the trajectory of the smoke and realized that the crow's medicine hut had remodeled the air ducts, and most of them had some kind of central air conditioner to ensure ventilation and clean air. .

"I knew an old man before, named Weber. I heard that his son was ill and he took medicine from you."

Facing Chen Yan's sudden inquiries, Crow showed surprise that he was benefited, with a cigarette in his mouth, shaking and shaking:

"Well, Weber, poor old guy, his family was ruined by the cult, and his wife and son almost got involved."

He said in a slightly sympathetic tone:
"If I hadn't helped, he would have been gone."

Chen Yan held the cigarette between his fingers, and his tone was erratic:

"I've heard of that cult... I also know that the Snake Kiss Rock can kill bacteria strains, but the Snake Kiss Rock is too expensive for ordinary people to afford."

The crow looked at him silently for two seconds, his face turned slightly cold, and he nodded:
"Don't inquire about it either. I spent a lot of money on it before, and now it's gone."

Chen Yan was noncommittal, and continued:
"Later, Weber obtained the very pure Snake's Kiss Rock through some channels, probably the top one on the black market." (chapters 545 and 546)
Crow frowned and said:
"How is it possible? I've seen the kind you mentioned. It's dug out from the ground and brought directly to the ground. Ordinary people don't have that kind of channel. "

He paused here.

"At that time... before the parade, the atmosphere in the lower part of Yanan City was already very tense. If Weber really got such a high-purity stone, it would not be good for him."

Chen Yan took a puff of cigarette, puffed out the clouds and said:

"At the beginning, Weber told me that he would use those snake-kiss rocks to pay back the money he owes you." (Chapter 545)
Weber also said that he wanted Chen Yan to help take care of his share of the money.

But until now, Chen Yan has not increased the money.

Crow sneered:
"He owed me a lot of money, and he didn't pay it back... I guess he didn't take safety measures when exchanging stones for money, and he was eaten by someone. Anyway, it has nothing to do with me."

There was no deceit in the air.

Chen Yan said:

"It doesn't mean anything else, just to ask, I was friends with him anyway, and now he has no news, I have to ask a question out of emotion and reason."

The crow breathed a sigh of relief:

"The friendship between the rivers and lakes, as it should be."

The crow relaxed a little vigilance towards Chen Yan, because according to what Chen Yan did, the Asians in Tianshen State who were hanging out with the empire were obviously different—he enforced some ancient and customary rules, and those rules were in Tianshen State. At that time, it was called "the friendship between rivers and lakes" or "emotion, reason and morality".

After setting foot on the land of the empire, most of the Tianshenzhou people gave up those ancient rules and began to follow the completely different living rules of the Luke people. Crow thinks this is bad, but in this big environment, if he If you don't follow the same rules, you will be eaten as meat by others.

The crow misses the past because of this.

When he discovered some characteristics of his hometown from Chen Yan, he felt close unconsciously, so he said a few more words:

"Don't ask about this matter anymore, the power of the cult is growing, and even the nobles of the upper house of Yanan City have become believers.

I was against them at the beginning, but I couldn't even stay in Yanan City anymore, so I had to run to the island chain.

But the island chain is not safe now, their transmission speed...

Just like the cold virus.

It's just that the symptoms are obvious after being infected by the cold virus. After being infected by them, you don't even know it. Until one day, when they can use you, you will suddenly have symptoms. It's like the incubation period in a novel that can be controlled artificially. Like the zombie virus, it is very fierce. "

Chen Yan asked abruptly:
"How do you know I'm not one of them?"

The crow laughed:

"If you were one of them, you wouldn't even be able to get through the door of the medicine house."

Chen Yan nodded thoughtfully:

"Dealing with them . . . is troublesome."

After the two of them finished smoking, Chen Yan went out to buy food for Ah Wei, and when he came back, he fed him mouthful after mouthful, comforted him a few words, promised the treatment in the future, and then turned and left the crow's medicine shed.

Before leaving the medicine house, Chen Yan said to the crow:
"I do know an organization that also studies intelligent limbs. It's called the Mechanical Ascension Secret Order. I don't know if you've heard of it."

The crow's face became ugly.

Chen Yan didn't wait for him to speak, and didn't stop for too long. After finishing speaking, he left with Swarm, who had been guarding outside the medicine house.

Next, Chen Yan found a coffee shop in Mechanical Hive Area B, ordered two cups of coffee for Swarm and himself, and called Klein Justus:

"The electronic equipment assembly workshop before, I want to know the contact information of the previous set of employees."

After getting the contact information of the former employee from Klein, Chen Yan called Han Yan:
"Boss Han, I want you to help introduce some practitioners related to electronic information technology and computer technology, preferably those who have worked in the first-line laboratories and workshops in the high-tech zone of Yanan City."

After getting the promise, Chen Yan called Thomas Gilbert:

"Find some capable guys and help me go to the venue."

A cup of coffee is half drunk.

Chen Yan called Li Shoucheng:
"Uncle Li, I need a sum of money, 3000 pounds."

"Well, yes, I want it now."

"5% interest, pay it back in one month, press the boat, press fingerprints, video... Well, no problem."

"In area C-19? Okay, I'll go get it now."

After drinking coffee, Chen Yan took Swarm to the designated place in C-19 area, took the money, killed all the lenders, set up a big SB, and then returned to the cafe in B area, opened up Cos Zilanford Klapeter's phone number:

"Xiao Ke, come to XX Cafe in Area B to get some money."

Kos hurried over from Perfume Street in District B-6, and looked at the 1500 pounds that Chen Yan distributed from the pile of banknotes, a little flustered:

"It doesn't need to be so much, 1361 pounds is enough, I'm pretty well off..."

He didn't know where Chen Yan's money came from, but he didn't care.

Chen Yan stuffed the money into his hand and said:

"I still need you to introduce some people. Do any of your classmates major in computer science and technology?"

Kos calmed himself down, and pondered:
"Yes, there are, but those who are well-studied have already been dragged by the High-tech Zone of Yanan City, and the rest who are not well-studied can't help much."

Chen Yan said:

"Are any of these people in the mechanical hive now?"

Coase answered truthfully:

"Of course, everyone has come to the island chain to look for opportunities after graduation, not only our current class, but also some of the last graduates. Our university has set up computer science and technology majors ten years ago, and these years have continued. There are subdivided majors under major categories, and I heard that the first batch of graduates have become company executives and industry giants."

Chen Yan said:

"Can you help me with the contact information?"

He told Coase about his plan to open an electronic technology company, and let the other party understand his firm will and "policy support for the logistics center."

He didn't mention Klein, but he didn't vaguely hint at the fact that he had someone to help him.

Kos obviously understood, because after hearing these words, he dispelled his doubts, provided some contacts in his mobile phone to Chen Yan, and explained:
"These people are all fresh graduates majoring in computer science and technology. I don't know the current job situation, but computer is a popular major now. Even if there are a large number of graduates, their daily salary will not be less than 1 shilling a day. .”

Kos glanced at the money in front of Chen Yan and realized that he was worrying too much, so he changed his mind:

"I will contact some well-known seniors and sisters in the professional field to see if I can ask them out to meet... But it's just a meeting. You are the boss, and you are the one who will talk to them in the end."

Chen Yan nodded:

"clear."

Kos took the money and left in a hurry. His face was rosy and his spirits were very uplifted. He obviously didn't expect Chen Yan to agree in the morning and get the investment in the afternoon.

In this way, the change of the night school's operation plan will be carried out smoothly, and he will finally be able to realize his value after graduation.

When he thought of the idea of ​​"keeping a back door in the night school that can counter Mr. Jack Baldo", he became even more excited. What could be more exciting than fighting for power with the strong?
Chen Yan looked at the back of Kosciranford Klapeter leaving, and smelled a conspiracy from him, but Chen Yan didn't care, he had more important things to do.

He ordered another cup of coffee, took the name and phone number given by Kos, called them one by one, and asked the people on the list to come here for interviews one by one.

This time the interview lasted for three days. During these three days, Chen Yan came to the coffee shop on time at 8 o'clock in the morning and started making phone calls. He went back to rest on time at 10 o'clock in the evening. When he was hungry, he ordered some desserts from the coffee shop. If there is an accident, let Swarm deal with it.

Just three days later, he has negotiated 25 fresh graduates majoring in computer science and technology and 3 middle-level practitioners working in emerging technology companies from the contact information of all parties.

He gave a salary that is enough to make graduates feel excited, and a salary that is enough to make people change jobs, and the most important thing is an exciting prospect——

He told the interviewers that the purpose of his company is not to make money, but to transform the world through technology, and take advantage of the east wind of the times to go to the stars and seas beyond the planet——

His company will focus on civilian artificial intelligence products in complex or extreme cosmic environments, as well as the production of bioelectronic technology products [brain machines].

They will enter the moon as soon as possible after passing through the [Moon Orbit Matrix], becoming the first batch of interstellar technology companies in the empire.

He signed the contract with these people on the spot, and asked Thomas Gilbert to transform the production workshop by phone after the interview, and bought the beehive next to the workshop as a laboratory and office.

Only the most critical personnel are required to get the company up and running.

On the third night, after 10 o'clock, Chen Yan returned to the ship and found Osmandis. He didn't mention the embarrassment when he faced William Master, but sent him a request——

"I want to go back to the tiger section at Byron Weiss Zoo one more time."

Osmandis satisfied his thoughts.

A moment later, Chen Yan stood in front of the hut in the forest underground in the tiger area and knocked on the door.

There was a reply from the owner of the cabin in the forest, so Chen Yan entered the unopened door, and had a conversation with the former deputy director of the Neural Construction Department of the Byron Weiss Group and the "Third Cooperation Period" about the White Snake with the Mechanical Ascension Secret Order who was sitting at the desk. "One of the leaders in the Byron Weiss Group, the brain-machine man Wan Brinmosh, sent out his own invitation——

"I would like to invite you to join my company to be responsible for the research on the compatibility of brain-computer and human body, just like the work you did in Byron Weiss' neurostructural department."

The electronically transparent jellyfish tentacles above the girl's head flickered for a moment, then nodded.
