my wife is a consul

Chapter 825
The royal capital of the New World, where ten major families are entrenched, is a science fiction city with a population of several hundred thousand.

The suspended train shuttles in mid-air between the city's glass-curtained skyscrapers, and the huge images produced by holographic projections are grotesque. Various driverless vehicles drive on the wide streets, stop at the wave of a wave, and can take passengers to any destination in the city.

Representatives of more than a hundred other families have also been temporarily granted permission to ride on these unmanned vehicles.

The royal family members who came from outside to attend the meeting were temporarily organized into a group of about twenty families, and guides led them to visit the city.

There are five groups in total, one group in the south, two groups in the south, one group in the north, two groups in the north, and a central group.

The terrain of the entire New World is like leaves, so it is divided.

The Central Group consists of more than 30 families, one of the top ten families and more than 20 families in the central region.

The Beihai family is classified in the northern group [-], which is the northernmost region.

The representative of the Beihai family this time is Bei Haiyan, the fourth heir in line, who is the second son of the old Beihai patriarch.

Because his elder brother already had two sons, his succession was still below those two nephews.

However, the royal family of the New World does not strictly follow the primogeniture system. Therefore, before Bei Haiyan's brother actually inherits the position of patriarch, it is okay to say that Bei Haiyan is the second in line of succession.

In fact, it is obvious that the Beihai clan leader is very partial to the eldest son's lineage. There may be dangers in the royal capital. The second son, Beihaiyan, is to a certain extent an abandoned son.

However, in the statement written by the old Beihai patriarch to the royal capital, he stated to the leaders of the ten major families that he favored Beihaiyan the most and hoped that through this conference, he could elevate the status of his second son within the clan and pass the throne to Second son.

The heads of the top ten families probably don't care about these nonsense things, as long as the people who come can represent the Beihai family.

Although Bei Haiyan is nearly 30 years old, he obviously lives in a greenhouse, like a blank slate.

He was keen on studying the robots of Beihai King City, and even disassembled a robot in violation of the ban, causing the robot to be completely damaged.

This is probably why the Beihai clan chief dislikes him so much.

At this time, sitting in the suspended train, sitting opposite Lu Ming, Bei Haiyan talked endlessly about his understanding of robots.

In fact, he gave a lecture on the plane to the royal capital.

Bei Haiyan believes that God obviously does not want them to truly master God's technology. The internal structure of the robot he dismantled is not complicated and does not contribute to the technological advancement of the New World. It is just gears and a steel body, but the power core is just a small I can't understand the stone no matter how I look at it.

In other words, the technology provided by God is the ultimate in complexity and simplicity. It is too complex to be understood, and it is simple and uninspiring.

In fact, Lu Ming had heard enough of what he said on the plane.

But he became more interested and asked a few more questions, which made Bei Haiyan completely treat him as a confidant and tell him everything he knew.

At this time, Lu Ming seemed to be listening to Bei Haiyan's talk, but in fact he was thinking that in fact, the high technology embodied in this science fiction city could, to a certain extent, be realized in his previous life, or was a technology that was being tested.

But the technical core is completely different from my previous life. It is probably the same as that robot, which is the ultimate in complexity and simplicity. The technology you can see is very simple and easy to understand, but the technical core is extremely complicated. Without hundreds of years of development, the scientific and technological personnel of the Imperial Continent would not be able to draw much nourishment from it.

Not to mention the so-called "royal family" of the New World.

Moreover, after contacting the Beihai family, I also know that the "royal family" had long believed that the so-called "gods" back then were just life forms with relatively advanced technology.

However, they still refer to the unknown life form as God, in order to satisfy their group's vanity as the heirs of God and their sacred legitimacy to rule this continent.

All greed will have no moral baggage.

"Your boy, are you the second eldest son of the Beihai family?" This was a section of the suspended train. Sitting there were representatives of the second group from the north. They were all one representative plus two retinues, a total of 60 people.

They also thoughtfully provided a separate guide for each family. Together with these twenty guides, there were a total of eighty passengers in the carriage.

Four people from each family plus the guide form a group, sitting on the sofas on both sides of the coffee table, facing each other.

The person who spoke was one of the four people on the other side of the aisle, a gray-haired old man.

Lu Ming noticed who was who. This old man was the head of the Yushan area adjacent to the Beihai area.

But it was obvious that Bei Haiyan didn't care about this at all. When the old man asked, he turned around and said politely: "It's Bei Haiyan. Who is this old man?"

What Bei Haiyan said is a relatively elegant and sour word in New World languages.

Lu Ming automatically filtered it into Chinese, which is roughly a similar expression of sour Confucianism.

"It's the head of the Yushan family..." Lu Ming, who was sitting next to Beihaiyan, whispered in his ear to remind him that he should do his duty as a retinue affairs officer.

"Oh, Uncle Yushan!" Bei Haiyan smiled.

The head of the Yushan family was stunned, then glared and said: "Keep your voice down, you keep chattering, it gives me a headache."

His attitude was very unfriendly.

"Yes, I understand. I'm sorry, Uncle Yushan!" Bei Haiyan was still smiling.

The head of the Yushan family snorted coldly and turned his head.

Bei Haiyan turned to Lu Ming and whispered, "Why is Uncle Yushan so angry with me?"

Lu Ming coughed, and through the Beihai family, he also had a certain understanding of the area near Beihai.

Especially towards the Yushan family, the head of the Beihai family has a lot of resentment.

Before Yushan Xiong, the head of the Yushan family, took the helm, the relationship between the Beihai family and the Yushan family was still very good.

However, in the past ten years or so, the two sides have become violently at odds. Especially five years ago, when the Southern Territory underwent a sudden change, the material allocation of local branches has been adjusted to some extent. Yushan Xiong took advantage of the weakness of the Beihai family to move a branch close to his area. (City) was annexed, and the relationship between the two parties became extremely bad.

Probably because Yushan Xiong is an outlier, having no interest in studying "gods", but prefers worldly affairs most. After becoming the head of the family, he personally served as the director of the Yushan region. Therefore, speaking to the group company on regional issues is naturally more difficult than that of the Beihai family. The peripheral disciples are much more powerful.

Perhaps it was because his father died too late. He became the head of the family when he was in his 50s. In addition, he liked power and was always suppressed. Once he became powerful, he took a completely different route from other family heads.

Bei Haiyan is not familiar with world affairs and does not understand what is happening in the outside world.

"Mr. Yan, please look, this is the material distribution center of the royal capital!"

The pretty girl who provided guide service for the three members of the Beihai family pointed at the skyscrapers outside the suspended train and said with a smile, which naturally relaxed the atmosphere.

The girl comes from the Shenhu family, one of the ten major families, and is called Shenhu Bailian.

However, Lu Ming already knew something about the "royal family" through the heads of the Beihai family. In fact, these families often select boys and girls who study in collective schools to enter the "royal city", initially for marriage, to avoid intermarriage between close relatives in their own family. Nowadays, the heads of royal cities everywhere The blood relationship between Maizhimai and Maizhimai has been very distant, but this custom has still been preserved. Handsome boys and girls are selected. If they have no marriage partner when they reach adulthood, they serve as service personnel to provide various services to the members of the "royal family".

Divine Tiger White Lotus is undoubtedly one of these children.
