Chapter 115 Survival Zone

After the two artists left, Zhang Qiuyi smiled and said, "President Wang commended you again."

"is it?"

"Well, because the batch of materials found in the Dawan District Industrial Base is very important, after our application, the dean has agreed for us to use it in the high-tech zone, and Lu Jin has to stay there again these days."

"It's been a bit hard for everyone during this time," Tangning said, "Spring plowing is about to start again, what does Zizhou say?"

Zhang Qiuyi frowned: "We had an agreement with Teacher Duan before, but the new director Cao believes that this agreement violates the regulations on the flow of people. The population of Zizhou is not the population of barren towns, so its jurisdiction is in Zizhou. It should not flow to our Han'an."

"Isn't this a temporary lease?"

"If you rent, it involves the distribution of contribution points. We in Han'an are self-reliant, and we exchange things with Zizhou through barter. Director Cao said that this is not possible. If the exchange is not through the contribution point system, there will be The suspicion of evading supervision does not comply with the relevant laws and regulations of the settlement."

"Understood." Tangning's eyes flickered, "This is a bit funny..."

"Why don't we go to the dean?" Zhang Qiuyi said, "Actually, what Director Cao said makes sense. What we did last year did not follow the contribution point system."

Tangning smiled, "As far as the material reserve for 300 people is concerned, what's the big deal? It's not appropriate to bother the dean and her elderly like this."

"In a big city with millions of people, we can't get dozens of people to help us, so we have to go through the system? So this matter is not a legal or administrative issue, but an attitude issue."

"Then what do we do?"

"I know about this matter, Qiu Yi, you should concentrate on scientific research and leave it to me to deal with it."

"Well, in fact, our base is not short of supplies, right?"

"Yes, even now, we have enough food reserves for three years. Therefore, Director Cao's calculations are a bit poor."

"Then don't worry about him, by the way, what kind of plant did you bring me this time?"

"Wait a minute..." Tangning looked around, took a cup, picked a few small young leaves and shredded them into the cup, rinsed it with boiling water, and a fresh fragrance immediately spread on the table .

"I don't know what it's called." Tangning said, "I discovered it when I was in Manzhou. This leaf has a strong mint and lemon flavor, refreshing and refreshing. I think it's much better than the dean's coffee."

Zhang Qiuyi chuckled and said, "You arrange the dean, be careful and I will sue you."

Looking at Zhang Qiuyi's smiling face, Tangning was a little dazed.

"what happened?"

"Qiu Yi, you should really smile often, your smile is so pretty."

Zhang Qiuyi's face was slightly red, and she stood up in a panic: "Let's go to the infirmary."

"what?"

"Didn't you just say it? Routine physical examination."

"..."

The results of the physical examination were all normal, and Zhang Qiuyi was very satisfied.

Tangning said goodbye to her, and went to visit Tang Lujin in the high-tech zone on the other side.

In a factory building in the high-tech zone, there is a strange aircraft on a large assembly table.

This thing looks like a peregrine drone with a long pointed head and a short tail. The narrow dish-shaped jets distributed at the tail of the wing in the past have now become cylindrical hollows. Inside the cavity, there are a series of turbofans.

There are many interfaces on the drone, which are connected to the control pipeline. Wang Aiwen and Jiang are also busy with something similar to a tactical board. Obviously, they also participated in the design.

"Brother Tangning, you're here!"

"Come and see you, is this the new 623?"

"Boss, we can't call it 623 anymore, right? This is a new drone, we named it Red Bird." Jiang was clearly dissatisfied with Tangning's statement.

"Red Bird?" Tangning was a little surprised, "This name sounds familiar..."

"Xiaozhi named it." Tang Lujin hurriedly said, "He said that you have business with Shudu Red Bird Studio."

"Xiaozhi helped a lot this time." Wang Aiwen said, "Without him, our design would not have been finalized so quickly."

Tang Lujin regretted: "In fact, this is to lower the ion engine, but there is no way. The Joint Council is too urgent. We need to use a large number of electronic systems built into the 623 cruise missiles. We can only improvise. The parameters of the machine are changed to suit those devices."

"This is already very impressive." Tangning handed the box in Tang Lujin's hands, "I reward you with a cake."

"Ha!" Tang Lujin was overjoyed, "Thank you Brother Tangning!"

Wang Aiwen took the panel from Tang Lujin's hand: "Go and cut the cake, I'll introduce it to you."

Just like presenting treasures, Wang Aiwen clicked on the holographic light curtain, dragged his hand on the tactical board, and the projection on the holographic light curtain also changed accordingly: "Our Red Bird UAV, although theoretically designed to meet the requirements of the 623 cruise missile's built-in The dimensionality reduction version designed for electronic equipment, but the system optimization that can be done has also been optimized a lot.”

"For example, the Skynet navigation module that has expired, we directly downloaded it, and fully adopted the map precise matching and route preset mode."

"The information collection module has also been fully upgraded, and a crystal storage system has also been added."

"The biggest change is the propulsion system, liquid graphite battery and ion jet engine, combined with the turbofan system, by giving up high speed to achieve energy-saving range extension effect."

"After overcoming the design bottleneck of the turbofan, our UAV can reach a range of [-] kilometers. In theory, it can fly from Shudu to Tingzhou!"

"You're just bragging," Tangning said with a smile, "One way?"

"Two-way!" Wang Aiwen said: "If there is a settlement over there and the airport is still intact, our drone can land freely, and then the people over there will charge it up and return?"

"Then it's still a one-way trip." Tangning didn't answer, "However, the scope of the reconnaissance is indeed much larger, and it is possible to scan the area. It's a very powerful thing."

Tang Lujin and Jiang had already cut the cake and brought a pot of milk tea. Everyone sat down to rest and chatted.

While drinking milk tea, Wang Aiwen was still drawing on the built-in high-definition map of the drone. Jiang also held a plate and a fork, looked at the map and asked, "Boss, what do you think the other places outside will look like now?" ? How many settlements are there in the world today?"

"This..." Tangning thought for a while before shrinking the map into a flat map of the entire planet: "I don't think it's very optimistic."

"You see, first of all, there is no need to consider the latitude of [-] degrees north and south. This basically wipes out the southern hemisphere, because the land in the southern hemisphere is basically within this range."

"The only hope is that Australia and Africa are close to deserts, with suitable rainfall and a small number of areas with sparse vegetation."

"Then there is the area from [-] degrees north and south latitude to the pole. As the global temperature drops and snowfall increases, those places..."

"Also, areas within [-] kilometers of the coastline are vulnerable to attacks by super mutant marine creatures. Compared with those giant beasts, the Hanshui Huanglong is basically a small carrot."

"So much of Europe is also in trouble."

"For the rest, you have to remove the influence of large mountains, plateaus, deserts, and large rivers and lakes."

"On an optimistic estimate, although the northern part of Africa and the Middle East are within [-] degrees, but the geographical conditions are special, there may be human settlements on the edge of the desert; there should be human settlements in the east of the Central European mountains, Central Asia; North America The conditions are good, and there must be human settlements; the rest are the north and south sides of the Yan-Tai-Qin Mountain Range in the Chinese mainland, and our enclave of the Shuzhou Basin."

"However, the conditions in North America don't need to be considered. They are far away from the ocean, and they will fend for themselves. The energy freedom and information freedom that have brought subversive changes to the world are not dominated by them. The status is not too high, and it mainly assumes the role of the world's granary."

"The same goes for North Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia, which declined sharply after energy freedom."

"The mining cities that rose up in the big contemporaries relying on several large planetary fault zones were submerged in the rainforest. I think we can finally contact the settlements and form a new alliance. In addition to the Huaxia region, at most the north and northwest The grasslands below are included in the end."

"Huh? It seems to be about the same as the radius limit that the Red Bird drone can reach?"

Tang Lujin looked at the map: "If Skynet is still intact, how good would it be?"

"Yes, if the Skynet is still intact, at least the residents of the settlements all over the world will have a chance to brainstorm, exchange science and technology, management methods, and disaster-resisting experience, and jointly fight against this catastrophe."

"As a technician, I can't understand Liu Shengli's decision at all." Wang Aiwen also held up the cake: "As for the assassination case, I can't even understand it."

"Otherwise, on this planet, there is still a person who can uniformly deploy global resources. Think about it, what would it look like if all the resources of the entire Skynet could be used by our current survivors?"

"There are countless cutting-edge technologies that cannot be unlocked!" Tang Lujin also said, "Those are the core technologies of Panoramic Corporation!"

"That's right..." Tangning also sighed, "At least, I don't have to search through garbage dumps in the Greater Bay Area..."

"Four-fifths of this planet is not ours anymore." Jiang also sighed.

"It doesn't matter, this planet was never ours." Tangning looked at the big map and picked up the milk tea.

……

……

Spring plowing waits for no one, and the base has a big problem, but most people don't know it.

Just like Tangning's excuse to comfort Zhang Qiuyi, even if Han'an City does not cultivate for three years, it will not affect it.

What's more, there is still supply from the capital of Shu.

But Tang Ning was unwilling to do that, and he believed that Wang Li would not be willing to do that either.

If we really wanted to do that, it would be meaningless for the Academy of Sciences to develop the Han'an base. The Ministry of the Interior could still hold the Academy of Sciences by the throat, as well as Tang Ning's.

Having experienced the Self-Management Committee incident, the Longquanshan incident, and the assassination incident at the Shujiang Hotel, Tangning has become wary of many people.

This settlement is by no means as beautiful as it looks on the surface. I need to accumulate more and more hole cards in order to survive here better.
