There's a black hole inside me

"You mean...join the army and join the Black Hole Fleet?"

Gu Lanlan is not stupid, she is very clear.

"Yes, joining the army is very promising."

Zhang Xingfeng nodded: "At least ten times more promising than mining."

"But there are dangers in joining the army!"

Gu Lanlan said: "The space environment is so harsh. People may die if they hit a meteorite. If the protective suit leaks, the blood will boil or freeze to death. This is only a danger in peacetime. Once a war breaks out, we don't know how we will die. As long as a ship The spacecraft exploded and disintegrated, and there were not many people alive inside.”

“Not many people will sign up for such a dangerous job, and it’s not very free. I don’t know how often I can go back home. I get together less and stay away more often. I don’t live at home all year round. It’s better to stay closer to home, even if the salary is not high. "

From the perspective of a wife, Gu Lanlan analyzed.

"The company has taken the issues you mentioned into consideration."

Zhang Xingfeng said: "I consulted a second lieutenant who served in the Black Hole Fleet. He said that under non-mission conditions, one-third of the time every year is spent on training, one-third of the time on training and rest, and another third of the time. On vacation, I have a lot of time to spend with my family.”

"If it is a mission, if it is an ordinary mission without danger and the time is more than one year, if you do not have children, you can bring your wife on board the ship, and you can even arrange a job as a crew member for your wife; if you have children, but the child is under 18 years old Yes, they will perform one mission at a time; if the child is over 18 years old and does not need parental care, the couple can continue to board the ship together. "

"But if you are performing a dangerous mission, you will definitely have to be separated from your wife and children for a period of time. However, this is peacetime. With the starship technology level of the Black Hole Fleet, how can we encounter danger? The probability of a sudden war is very small , the long period of peace may last fifty years, a hundred years, or even longer.”

"The service period of the Black Hole Fleet is fifty years. After fifty years, as long as they successfully retire, they will receive a generous pension, a free life extension service, and a place to recommend their children to enter the military academy. The treatment is very generous , is a very good development path.”

Zhang Xingfeng cited various advantages.

If it weren't for the fact that he was a bit older and had a high chance of being dismissed, he would have wanted to sign up to join the army.

"The two giant mines next to our city can probably be mined for a hundred years."

Gu Lanlan said: "If those two mines are finished, there are still some small and medium-sized mines further away. If you are not picky, you can still mine them for another hundred years."

"Two hundred years from now, if the mineral resources are really gone, we can engage in tourism and real estate. By then, the population of Mars will probably have grown to more than one billion. People living in space cities will also yearn for our surface ecosystem after living for a long time. If you want to live here, you may come to visit us or buy a house.”

"At that time, our land of more than five acres can be used to build three or four commercial housing buildings, or a large pyramid building, with at least one or two hundred houses. Half of them will be sold and the other half will be rented out. It is impossible for our family to will become poor."

"The most expensive thing on Mars is not the mines, but the ecosystem that the big boss has worked hard to build. These are the real priceless treasures. Those who give up the good life in the ecosystem and insist on running to the space city, You will definitely regret it in the future.”

Gu Lanlan's analysis also makes sense.

The most valuable thing on Mars is indeed these ecosystem cities. No amount of mineral resources can compare with it, because only in the ecosystem can humans survive normally. No matter how many minerals there are in other places, you will die in a few seconds after taking off your protective mask.

Taking into account the continued expansion of the population.

The most expensive thing in the future will definitely be the land in the ecosystem. Since the total amount of land is limited and the population growth is unlimited, it is self-evident what will happen in the end.

"The universe is so big, why do you always count on our little land?"

Zhang Xingfeng shook his head.

The pattern of women is indeed not very big. They always think about their own small family and the few resources they have. Often intentionally or unintentionally, they ignore the external environment, have no sense of crisis, and even think about getting to the bridge. Of course, there will definitely be a good solution by then.

There is nothing they can do, and the company will find a way, so it is impossible to just let it go.

never mind.

There is no point in discussing it with Gu Lanlan. Let's find some friends tomorrow to discuss it with those young people and ask them if they are interested.

Phew~

Time flies by so fast.

According to Blue Star's time calculation, it was almost seven years since he and Gu Lanlan got married.

Originally, he had no plan to get married so early. The company held several huge blind date events. The goal was to make all young men and women under the age of 28 get married. At the blind date, they would look at each other correctly. If you are interested, you can apply for a certificate on the spot, complete the process within ten minutes, and be assigned a special "couple room".

That day, Gu Lanlan took a piece of paper and asked him to sign his name on it. Zhang Xingfeng signed it in a daze, but he didn't know it was a marriage application.

Then in the name of "taking ID photos", Gu Lanlan dragged him through the process, lined up to take pictures, and continued to sign. There was a buzzing of activity. When he woke up, the staff had already sent the marriage certificate and house keys to his hands. .

"This doesn't count! I'm confused. She and I are not boyfriend and girlfriend." Zhang Xingfeng quickly explained at that time.

"It takes three months to get a divorce. Now we can only get married." the staff said.

But after three months of sharing the same bed, Gu Lanlan already had it in her belly, so why get a divorce?

In Mars immigration, many men and women are in this situation. They have incompatible personalities and want to divorce, but they have children and are still divorced. And even if they are divorced, there is a divorce record, which seems to have devalued the value. Not many people dare to ask for it. In the end Had to turn back.

Zhang Xingfeng could only sigh: He had fallen into this woman's trap.

But after so many years, even though there were many better choices in front of him, it was not that there were no young and beautiful people who favored him, but in the end he chose this woman who gave birth to three children for him.

…

the next day.

Zhang Xingfeng called together dozens of young people under the age of 25 in his team, told them about the expansion of the Black Hole Fleet, talked about the various benefits of joining the Black Hole Fleet, and asked them if they were interested and if they wanted to join the army?

"Joining the army, I heard that the training period is very hard, and those who perform poorly may be eliminated?"

"I just got married not long ago, and my child will be born in a few months, so I won't join in the fun."

"There is no gravity on a starship. I float around like an astronaut all day long. I have to stay there for at least a few months. I can easily get osteoporosis. I can't stand this kind of life."

"The benefits of joining the army are good, but our mining income is not low, and we are close to home. Why should we suffer that?"

"I really want to go, but I don't have a partner yet. Are there more men or women on the starship? Can you help me introduce a partner?"

Young people have all kinds of questions and doubts, but not many of them really interest them.

"This is a really good, good opportunity."

Zhang Xingfeng encouraged: "I will also sign up at that time. You all try to sign up. I estimate that there will be a lot of people applying. The probability of joining the black hole fleet is very low, but as long as you join, it will definitely be ten times better than mining. hundred times!"

In order to increase his persuasiveness and appeal, he could only say that he would also sign up, as if he was trying his luck in drawing a big prize.

"In this case, it's not a bad idea to try."

"Mining is too easy. Controlling a star battleship is much more difficult than mining. The treatment will definitely be better."

"You can try it."

…

Half a month later.

As expected, the Black Hole Group issued a "Recruitment Order" to recruit 100,000 crew members to join the Black Hole Fleet. Anyone who is interested is welcome to actively sign up.

However, during the registration application period.

Zhang Xingfeng was surprised that only 98 people, including him, signed up for the No. 3 city with a total population of 88,000.

This registration ratio is relatively high among the 78 Mars cities, and the application ratios in other cities are even lower.

Later, Zhang Xingfeng successfully passed the physical fitness, written examination and interview assessment... Although he was slightly older, it was not a big problem.

The other 97 applicants from City No. 3 also passed the assessment, with a passing rate of 100%.

"What about those young people who said they would sign up?"

Zhang Xingfeng was dumbfounded and looked Spartan: "Why don't they have any faces? We agreed that I would accompany them on the run and you would help lower the winning rate. How come I have become an old man and joined the army in the Black Hole Fleet?" "

What about the integrity of young people today?
