I really don't want to hang up

Looking at his face under the candlelight, Da Vinci secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

He has been worried that Mr. Luden and Brando's godfather are the same person, so wouldn't he be falling into a trap?
Fortunately, Godfather Brando dispelled Da Vinci's worries with practical actions.

He kissed the back of the godfather's hand, and under the arrangement of the godfather, he lived in an attic where a down-and-out painter lived.

After Da Vinci left, Hannibal looked in the direction of the door and sighed helplessly.

This young man is still too young!
He was eaten to death by Mr. Luden.

Everything tonight was within Mr. Luden's expectations. Even the fact that the other party would ask him to take off his mask, Mr. Luden had guessed.

In fact, Hannibal also raised doubts.

To take off the mask so easily and face Da Vinci with his true face is a little bit of a cover-up.
Luden's explanation for this is very simple,
"The seeds of doubt, once planted, bear fruit."

Da Vinci doubts the relationship between Luden and Brando's godfather. With his talent and character, he will discover the truth sooner or later.

Luden didn't need to lie to Da Vinci for a lifetime, but only for a while.

It is enough to let this genius settle down temporarily.

Leonardo da Vinci and the same batch of artists settled down in various forms in the fog city.

Their experience is just a microcosm of the times.

Without the Shenbang Empire, the entire continent fell into endless wars.

People naturally yearn for a more peaceful and prosperous life, and more and more people flee to the Little United Kingdom for refuge.

They brought machinery, production experience, labor, wealth to the Little United Kingdom.
At the same time, the era of great navigation is gradually reaching a new climax.

Batch after batch of fleets set off on long voyages, some went to buy and sell goblins, some went to open up colonies, and some continued to search for new continents.
Another year has passed.

An urgent telegram broke the quiet atmosphere of the company and called an emergency meeting.

The host of the meeting is also the current executive president - Albert.

Today, most of the company's affairs are handled by Albert. In addition to his own separate laboratory, he is more responsible for coordinating the operation of the entire company.

For Albert, Lu Deng gave [-]% trust.

The reason for this emergency meeting is also very simple:
"A new disease is spreading in the South, both chronic and acute, contagious."

After briefly introducing the characteristics of the disease, Albert looked solemn,
"We found the name of this disease - tuberculosis in Qiyun's ancient books."

Tuberculosis is an ancient disease.

At least for today's human civilized society, this is the case.

Albert warned the crowd,

"If left unchecked, tuberculosis will kill a tenth, nay, a quarter of the people in Fog."

As a doctor, Hannibal obviously knew the horror of this disease.

He rarely showed his humanity, looked at Mr. Luden with serious eyes, and asked tentatively,
"Is it possible to use Qiyun's technology to solve this disease?"

Before Lu Deng could reply, Awu returned coldly,
"If you ask Qiyun for help, you have to accept everything from Qiyun."...

Accept everything from Qiyun.
Qiyun's doomsday pastoralism requires people to return to the savage pastoral life, not to develop any technology, and to live ignorantly, chaotically, and primitively.

In their view, only in this way can human beings get rid of the ending of self-destruction.

Hannibal looked away, understanding what the other party meant.

Eternals refuse to use Qiyun technology for a disease, even if they have this ability.

To be precise, the queen refused.

At times like this, Hannibal couldn't help but think, Mr. Luden is fighting for his breath!

In your family, is it the queen who has the final say, or you who have the final say? !

Albert did not pin his hopes on Qiyun Technology either.

"We are studying this disease and need more experimental sample data, but these data are difficult to collect, and the south is too far away from us"

"About this matter, I can help a little bit."

A Wu, who had previously refused to help, changed his tune.

Those present were all his own people, and Awu didn't have the habit of hiding his words.

He said bluntly,
"I can be infected with this disease, and by adjusting the state of my body, accelerate the disease process, display various symptoms of the onset, and provide an autopsy to analyze the cause of death."

Crowd: ? ? ?
Even if they knew some of the characteristics of the immortals, everyone felt terrified when they heard these words uttered from Awu's mouth without emotion.

On the contrary, it was Luden, which was not surprising.

He said earlier that the immortals and humans are two species, and they have completely different views and methods of dealing with many things.

Awu has no way to change the queen's opinion, and cannot use Qiyun technology in violation of regulations.

However, as an immortal, he can do more than enough.

With Awu's help, the progress of getting rid of tuberculosis should be much faster.

Before Albert continued the meeting process, Mr. Luden, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke,
"We're a medical company."

This sentence set the tone for the whole matter, and it also relieved a lot of resistance for Albert to do next.

Luden's meaning is clear: We are a medical company that fights against disease.

If tuberculosis is conquered, they will sell the drug cheaply and in large quantities, saving patients, rather than hoarding it for profit.

This is also the plan that Albert originally envisioned.

However, Albert's original intention was different from Luden's.

The reason Luden does this is simple: only living people continue to consume.

He needs more markets, more consumers, because his company is still producing goods
Everything is business.

Albert continued,

"In the face of tuberculosis, the company recommends that everyone leave the overpopulated city and go to the countryside to self-isolate for a period of time. The fatality rate of this disease is very high."

All the people present are shareholders and backbones of the company.

If anyone dies from tuberculosis, it is a loss to the company.

Albert's warning is also a kind of company welfare.

After the emergency meeting, shareholders spread the word.

The old king was the first to leave Wudu. Rumor has it that His Majesty's health is already very poor, and he probably won't be able to survive this winter.

Then, the lord also went to the country manor to avoid the plague. He also invited Luden to join him, but Luden declined.

Luden planned to use this hard-earned vacation to do something more exciting.

Like going to the moon!

On this day, Luden, who was enjoying early retirement on the moon, received a letter from the Sir.

Opening the envelope, Sir Sir's words came into view, and the corners of Luden's mouth twitched slightly.

The letter reads:
"Mr. Luden, an apple fell on my head, and I couldn't help thinking."
