Trisolarans: Trisolarans with the hard steel of the earth

The leader was unmoved.

In desperation, Lin Lang took out a small golden croaker.

Only now did the leading man's eyes finally show a greedy light.

Sure enough, gold in troubled times and antiques in prosperous times are the same everywhere.

Lin Lang chuckled: "Take us to the capital, this gold bar belongs to your village."

"capital……"

The leading man glanced at them, then at the mighty convoy, thought about it and said:

"No, there is no flat road section closest to the capital here, and cars cannot pass through it. You can only get there by detour, which is very, very far."

"Then you ask someone to go with us."

"No, it's getting dark!"

"..."

After discussing for a while, the leading village chief refused to let go at all, he must let them stay in the village and wait until tomorrow morning before leaving.

But it doesn't matter, after all, there are many scientific researchers in the team, and their energy is not comparable to that of those who survive and work here all day.

After a day of exposure to the sun, many people are exhausted, and it is a bit too embarrassing for them to drive at night.

"Stay here."

Lin Lang said, "Set camp."

Naturally, he didn't trust the people in this village, and it was impossible for him to live in the room they prepared for the team.

The sun set on time at six o'clock.

Lin Lang and his party of dozens of people camped outside the village.

The sky is full of stars without the light pollution of industrial cities, and the brilliance and splendor shine above everyone's heads.

I lit the bonfire with the solid alcohol that I brought with me, which made the villagers watching from a distance discuss for a while.

These people seem to know magic.

"Boss Lin, there are a lot of mosquitoes here..."

The little secretary pouted, and slapped a blood-sucked mosquito to death on her leg.

"The conditions are limited. It will definitely not be as comfortable as a domestic business trip." Lin Lang said: "Spray more toilet water."

"President Xiao Lin, I never thought you could stand this weather." Uncle Zhang by the campfire cut a piece of luncheon meat and put it in his mouth: "I'm almost exhausted from the sun, I'm getting old."

"You are young." Lin Lang smiled and took a bite of the compressed biscuit.Hard, cracked teeth.

"Boss Lin, why do you have to build that...an elevator here?"

The little secretary asked curiously: "Why can't we just build it in China, it's much more convenient to buy a piece of land..."

"Because it can't be built."

Shen Yufei took over the conversation: "It can't be built in other places."

"The space elevator is to build a space station parallel to the earth's revolution above the earth's atmosphere. Neither the southern hemisphere nor the northern hemisphere can achieve a speed parallel to the earth's rotation."

"Oh..." The little secretary recalled the geography and physics content in high school, blinked and said: "That is to say... it can only be built on the equator?"

"Yes, not only on the equator, but also away from the coast, away from the seismic zone."

Lin Lang said helplessly: "Other countries built on the equator have different points of inconsistency, either because of wars, frequent earthquakes, or frequent natural disasters."

"I walked around the globe, and only this place is suitable."

"Lin Lang, do you really think you can build it? In this deserted place..."

Just as Shen Yufei raised her doubts, she heard a burst of hearty laughter: "Haha, Lin, my generous friends, do you enjoy the mosquitoes here?"

"Mike, are you and your brothers still used to it?"

Lin Lang put down the food in his hand with a smile, and said hello to the bearded burly man.

"Hahaha, my people are all the most experienced veterans, whether it's Yangda Continent or Ice Pole Continent, they can fight anywhere!"

The hearty bearded man patted Lin Lang's shoulder so hard that he almost grinned.

"My friend, I want to know, you bunch of nerds who live in the laboratory, what are you doing in this place where the birds don't shit?"

Mercenary Mike took a sip of the spirits, squinted his eyes and showed his yellow and black teeth and asked with a smile.

Chapter 23 Rich Big Fish?

"I don't understand. Neither do my brothers."

He turned his head and roared towards the bonfire surrounded by a dozen of his subordinates.

The dozen strong men picked up the food and spirits in their hands and laughed wildly in response.

Mike looked back at Lin Lang again: "There is no black gold or ivory in this ghost place."

"In this place, there are only a group of skinny poor ghosts and stupid mosquitoes!"

"You... why are you here?"

"How do you know there is no black gold in this place? Maybe we are here to explore?" Lin Lang responded with a chuckle.

Black gold is oil, liquid gold.

"Hahaha! Don't try to lie to me! If there is oil in this place, will you still be as poor as you are now?"

Mike had a bold smile on his face, but he never let go of this question.

"Besides, you guys are so generous, you are willing to give that country bumpkin a piece of gold!"

"Don't tell us, you are here to help the poor! Haha!"

Lin Lang looked at the stars above his head, and said softly, "Why can't it be?"

"My country, isn't that what it is doing?"

"Hahaha...you are so humorous!"

The mercenary just wanted to express his disbelief, but he thought that the motherland of the scientist in front of him was indeed helping the poor all over the world as he said...

Knowing that he was bored, he left angrily, and said a few slang words in his mouth, as if he was cursing something.

"Have a great night, beauties!"

When leaving, he didn't forget to whistle to Shen Yufei and the secretary.

At night, the only sound is the murmur of people talking and the crackling of campfires.

Occasionally, a lone wolf in the grassland howled.

In the silent night, there was a noise of an old engine from a distant village, and then gradually moved away.

"Boss Kobayashi."

Uncle Zhang, who was on guard at night, approached Lin Lang's sleeping bag and said in a low voice, "The car just now is not from our team."

"Well, don't worry about it." Lin Lang said without sleepiness.

"Also...our security guards only have batons and bulletproof vests in their hands, and those mercenaries have hot weapons..."

Uncle Zhang whispered his worries along the way: "The smell of blood from that group of people is too strong."

"Are we really going to take that group?"

"I know." Lin Lang said without emotion: "I brought them on purpose."

"Some things don't need to be done by ourselves, dirty hands."

"Uncle Zhang, brothers who have worked hard these two days, stay alert at night."

"I'll be watching in the middle of the night."

"Oh, I see."

Uncle Zhang got up and went back to the extinguished flame, his eyes scanned everything around him, he lit a cigarette, brought it to his mouth and put it down again.

"President Xiaolin...is still too young."

He sighed. Those people were called mercenaries, but they were actually a group of beasts licking blood.

For profit... Even his own mother can be betrayed.

How could the chairman feel at ease to let her only son come to such a ghostly place, in case something goes wrong...

Not even a body collector.

But now, he can only risk his life to accompany the gentleman.

Early the next morning.

Almost all scientific researchers greeted the scorching sun with a yawn.

The mosquitoes at night and the frequent howling of wild animals in the distance made them sleep restlessly all night.

And it's not even possible for them to brush their teeth and wash their face.

The space in the car is limited, and the materials can only guarantee the most basic survival needs, and the "waste" of a little wealth is a luxury.

Just when Lin Lang and his team were eating bland biscuits.

A group of people rushed out from the village and surrounded them.

It seems that they are all locals, with unfriendly expressions, and they all hold weapons in their hands, some are cold and some are hot.

Lin Lang patted the biscuit crumbs in his hand, stood up and said, "Why are you standing there, get in the car."

Shen Yufei would take it easy and dragged the little secretary into a special bulletproof jeep.

For a moment, only Uncle Zhang's four or five security personnel, mercenaries, and a group of armed locals stood there, swords drawn.

Although Lin Lang looked relaxed on the surface, he could not stop sighing in his heart: "When the humans wandering in the universe of the earth built elevators, this kind of thing didn't happen..."

Because the earth will be destroyed at that time.

People all over the world have united to fully support the construction of planetary engines, and it is impossible to have disputes over such matters.
