Chapter 1449 Born in Adversity, Die in Comfort!

Uncle Li's house is located in the first phase of Hope Town, a quiet corner hidden in a deep alley near the Logistics Department.

Unlike Sun Cheng, who was assigned to the third phase of public rental housing because he joined the territory late, and the couple only had a narrow living space of more than ten square meters, Uncle Li's house is particularly spacious and comfortable.

Not counting the small courtyard outside that is nearly 20 square meters and full of flowers and plants, the area of ​​the three rooms alone adds up to more than 80 square meters, enough for a family of five to enjoy a spacious and comfortable life.

Of course, this preferential treatment did not come out of thin air, and there are reasons behind it that no one can refute.

Uncle Li is an old resident.

An old resident in the true sense!

They are the group of people that Su Mo first rescued in the saltpeter mine.

From the establishment of the Candlelight Camp, to the growth of the Tianyuan Camp, and then to the prosperity of the Tianyuan Territory on the New World, Uncle Li's family witnessed every important development process of the territory, and contributed a lot of labor from beginning to end. No one can find fault with such treatment.

However, despite such favorable conditions, the Li family has been shrouded in a disharmonious atmosphere recently.

At night, quarrels would come one after another, so that Uncle Li would rather choose to spend the night in the car than step into the house.

But today, Uncle Li seemed to have figured something out.

Walking into the town, familiar faces greeted him from time to time along the way, and Uncle Li responded with a warm smile one by one. That calmness was completely different from the avoidance of fear of embarrassment in the past.

When he came to his yard, he did not hesitate and wander as usual, and did some psychological preparation, but pushed the door open without hesitation and stepped into this familiar yet unfamiliar home.

It was still drizzling in the sky. Before entering the house, Uncle Li took off his raincoat, gently shook off the water droplets on it, and put on rain boots, and then slowly walked into the main house.

The atmosphere of the entire Li family was like being shrouded by a heavy cloud, which was so depressing that it made people breathless, as if a downpour would break out at any time.

Uncle Li's return was like a signal gun that triggered a storm. In an instant, the originally oppressive atmosphere in the house was completely broken, and the rumbling quarrel sounded like thunder.

"Old man, it's been half a month. When will you figure it out?"

A young man who looked 70% similar to Uncle Li heard the noise in the house and walked out of the side room quickly, shouting to Uncle Li with a bit of anxiety and dissatisfaction.

"Opportunities don't wait for anyone. There are so many people out there scrambling to charter boats. I finally applied for a quota with Brother Cai. It's okay if you don't support me financially, but you can't just withhold my ID and stop me from going out, right?"

"A Huan, how can you talk to your father?" A woman with a vicissitudes of life followed the young man out of the house and scolded him, "Your father doesn't let you go out because he's worried that you'll die outside. Do you think he's afraid that you'll make a lot of money?"

"Who doesn't understand the truth? I haven't even gone out yet, and you're cursing me to die outside. Will I never be able to go anywhere in my life?"

Li Huan stubbornly retorted, "Our family can still live here now because the mayor and the lord have made contributions before us. If they only want to live off their old capital and welfare in the future, then we have no reason to refute if they take our house."

The woman sighed. Every time the child would use this set of rhetoric to refute them, but they couldn't refute it.

This is the fact.

There are indeed old residents who want to show off by relying on their previous achievements and are sent to the new district to help with construction.

"Your father and I don't care whether this house is there or not. As long as our family is safe and sound, we are willing to move to the new district and squeeze into public housing with others..." The woman's tone was full of helplessness and compromise.

"That's what you want, I don't want to." Li Huan was relentless.

"What era is it now? This is a wasteland. You still want us to live according to your wishes. Have you ever thought about whether we are willing?"

"Okay." Uncle Li interrupted Li Huan with full energy.

He stood up, touched the closet next to him, and then pulled out a palm-sized card from it - that was Li Huan's ID card.

"This is your ID card, take it."

"Ah? You agree?"

Li Huan thought that his "Long March" would continue for another month or two. He didn't think he could succeed today. He didn't expect the card to be handed over so easily, which made him feel unreal.

"If you want to leave, go ahead. I won't give you a penny. You have to figure it out yourself."

"Hey, just give me this thing. I won't spend your money. You can apply for a subsidized loan in the territory."

Li Huan happily took the card. For a moment, he no longer cared about why his stubborn old father had such a big change. His mind was only filled with the sea of ​​stars and the upcoming adventure.

Recently, the territory has established a cross-plate caravan. As long as you are qualified and have a standard ship, you can join the entourage and bring the goods produced in Tianyuan Territory to other territories.

In the meantime, not only will there be fleet protection, but the territory will only take 30% of the profits.

It can be said that as long as you have the courage to participate, this is a business that is guaranteed to make money.

As long as you run for half a year, it will not be a problem to open a factory in the new district. Such an opportunity is undoubtedly very attractive to young people like Li Huan.

"Old Li, you..." Watching Li Huan leave happily, the woman still didn't react.

"Guixiang, the child has grown up and its wings have become stiff. It's useless for us to take care of it..."

Uncle Li picked up the water cup and took a sip of the weak tea.

"But..." Guixiang wanted to say something else, but the door to the side room on the other side opened again.

It's a girl, she looks to be around 27 or 28 years old.

"Dad, you agree that Li Huan went to sea, so you have to agree with me. You can marry me if you want. I won't marry that nerd and live a stable life with him for the rest of my life."

"You damn kid, you still call me a nerd? He is a serious researcher at the institute, and his monthly salary is several hundred copper coins. Isn't it good to live a stable life?"

Guixiang had a headache.

She knew that if the three children in the family agreed to this, they would definitely not be satisfied with the other.

In this case, either everyone must disagree or everyone must agree.

"What's wrong with the researcher? He wants to find a stable life. I'm not that kind of person."

The girl's personality is very similar to Li Huan's. She also has an adventurous personality and is not willing to live a stable life at all.

"Besides, my brother and I have agreed that if he gets a boat, I will help him sell goods. When the time comes, you will share the money with me and I will find a partner myself!"

"Okay, you can find it yourself."

As if he had taken the wrong medicine, Uncle Li stood up again and took out an ID card from the cabinet.

On the card was a photo of the girl, with the words ‘Ling Ming Jiao’ written underneath.

"Lao Li... you..." Guixiang was dumbfounded when she saw her daughter happily running to find Li Huan with her ID card in hand.

At this moment, he was somewhat doubting whether the man in front of him had taken the wrong medicine.

It's not exciting at all. Why do you seem to be a different person today? ? ?

"dad..."

The door opened again, but this time before the figure rushing out could say anything, Uncle Li raised his hand.

A card was thrown over and was caught by a figure.

"Go ahead, I want to go out with your brother to have a career. This old man like me can stop you for a while, but I can't stop you for the rest of your life."

"Hey, if you had just promised us earlier, maybe we would have made a lot of money and let you live in a big yard of several hundred square meters."

The speaker was a boy who had just grown up, named Li Xun.

None of the three children in the family is safe, and they all want to make a big splash in the wasteland.

"Go ahead, I won't care about you anymore."

Uncle Li sighed, until he and Guixiang were the only two people left in the room, a trace of exhaustion showed on his face.

"I finally figured it out today. We can have the treatment we have today and the territory can develop to this point without the efforts of some people. Why can it be someone else who dies outside? It can be you, it can be me, and it can't be just a few of them. Woolen cloth?"

"If everyone in this territory is afraid of death and wants to be safe, who would be willing to stand in front of us when disaster strikes?"

"Lao Li, you can't say that, those people are..."

Guixiang fell silent before she finished speaking.

She originally wanted to say that those people rushed forward for profit, otherwise there would be a few who were not afraid of death.

But then she thought about it. She had been to the recruiting sites several times recently. How many of those brawny young men were there for money?

They love this land and the hard-won peaceful territory in this wasteland.

They are so willing to give without asking for anything in return. If these people can die, why can't their children die?

"I still have more than three hundred copper coins in my account. Please take some time and take it out for Li Huan."

It was obviously all the family property, but Uncle Li seemed to be talking about an insignificant thing.

Guixiang also nodded without any rebuttal. They were indeed willing to give everything for their children.

Seeing this, Sumo ordered Zero to switch the perspective back and stopped eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.

He turned to look at Qiao Yuansheng, who was waiting beside him, who showed a meaningful smile.

Obviously what happened to Uncle Li was not accidental or accidental.

Perhaps this kind of thing happens repeatedly in the territory every day, but this time he happened to catch it.

"Born in sorrow, died in happiness."

Qiao Yuansheng was still smiling, but he looked a little wretched: "I haven't understood before why there is always such a strange atmosphere in the territory. Many people never seem to enjoy the time to stop and rest. Instead, they keep walking upward. While working hard, I later figured out that it was all influenced by you, the lord."

"You haven't even taken a break, so why would they dare to stop and take a rest?"

"Because of me?"

Su Mo was stunned and couldn't help but laugh.

"Then if I take a break now, will they take a break too?"

"No." Qiao Yuansheng shook his head: "The foundation has been laid down. After the spiritual inheritance is established, this will be the foundation of our Tianyuan territory. No one who joins can change it. They will only be assimilated and affected by it, and eventually embark on the same path of struggle. road."

"is that so?"

Soma nodded slightly.

If he explains it according to this reason, he can probably understand why even if he leaves the territory, everything will develop in the best direction expected.

Continuous struggle, perseverance, and attack against difficulties.

This is the spiritual belief established when the Tianyuan Territory was established. As long as this belief is not broken, the entire territory will revolve around this belief no matter how many people join it.

Naturally, the road will not go astray, and development will always continue upward.

Thinking of this, Su Mo suddenly became interested and said, "Zero, help me record the people in the car just now and record their life trajectories. I will come back to see them in a month."

"Master, your instructions have been recorded. Zero will record them every other day."

After doing this, Su Mo no longer had the heart to go to other places.

As long as there is no problem with the cultivated land, Tianyuan Territory will have no worries after the autumn harvest.

The entire territory will immediately enter a period of rapid development and achieve the previous planned goals one by one.

"Call Lu Kuan over. I have something to tell him."

"Okay." Qiao Yuansheng nodded and left. After a while, Lu Kuan entered the virtual world and came to the meeting room.

"Old Lu, you have to take care of your body. You can't stay like this."

Noticing the white hair on Lu Kuan's head and the tired smile, Su Mo frowned.

Although he helped him change some negative entries last time, human energy is always limited and cannot withstand long-term consumption.

"It's almost done. Those things you brought back last time are all good stuff. I can't sleep well until I disassemble them."

Lü Kuan smiled, as if he didn't take his body seriously.

He has been sleeping in the brain box for hundreds of years. How long has he been busy now? Isn't it embarrassing to complain about hard work?

"You have to promise me first, otherwise I dare not give you these things."

"Huh?"

Lü Kuan was stunned subconsciously, and the next second he saw a few thick stacks of information appearing next to Su Mo, and he immediately understood.

"Wait, these are the technologies you mentioned last time?"

"A total of 334 technologies, covering 17 fields such as people's livelihood, military industry, aerospace, communications, medical care, education, transportation, energy, environmental protection, and agriculture. I have sorted out each technology to the top level of the earth, and it contains complete technical manuals and reproduction methods."

"What?"

Lü Kuan stood up and wanted to look through these technical materials.

More than 300 technologies?

What speed is this?

"You have to promise me that you will rest for at least six hours every day, otherwise I won't dare to give you these things."

"Okay, okay, I promise you."

Lv Kuan had no choice but to agree.

After such a long time, he already knew Su Mo's temper. If he didn't rest for six hours in the next period of time, this guy would definitely force him to take a vacation.

With so many neatly documented technologies in hand that could not be reproduced, taking a vacation would be like killing him, wouldn't it?

"I promise that in the next period of time, after I assign tasks, I will definitely rest enough every day."

"Okay, if I know you are still working overtime in a month, you know."

Su Mo raised his eyebrows, and then piles of information appeared in the virtual world.

In just ten seconds, the mountain of information files filled half of the nearly 200-square-meter conference room.

For more than 300 technologies, nearly 400 kilograms of paper were used for recording.

Su Mo couldn't remember how many pens he had wasted. It can only be said that reproducing things in memory is not a simple matter.

Fortunately, there is system help. He only needs to write out some key parts, and the system can help complete the rest.

The cost is only a few hundred special survival points, which is completely affordable.
