Chapter 1156: The Subway to the Sky

In fact, outer space has gravity.

On the first floor of the "Lazy Ladder", which is 200 kilometers away from the ground, the gravity is only a little less than that on the ground. When walking, it seems to have lost a little weight. If you don't pay attention, you won't feel it at all.

An aircraft flying in low-Earth orbit relies on the centrifugal force brought by the high-speed motion around the Earth for about one and a half hours to offset the Earth's gravity.

However, the second floor of the "Lazy God Ladder" moves synchronously with the ground, and the counteracting gravity is very small. If there is no hanging cable that goes straight to the sky, it may have fallen headfirst, and a live-action version of "The Center of the Earth" will be staged. Gravity".

But also because of this, this is the most comfortable floor for human beings. Eating is undoubtedly a good mood, so you can eat more! The food court is arranged on this floor without any hesitation.

Walk out of the elevator, go straight and turn left, follow the scent and you will see Brother Space's barbecue stand.

There were no customers at the barbecue booth yet. Brother Space was wearing a white chef's uniform and stood there with a few service staff. When he saw the first batch of customers coming, there was immediate applause.

"Welcome, welcome! Welcome to the guests of Lazy God Yafei!" Space Brother gave them a thumbs up: "You are all heroes! Today Space Brother will give you a 30% discount, boys and girls, do a good job for our heroes !"

The group of people who just came up were immediately stunned, a little embarrassed, a little happy, a little proud, a little moved, and a little teary-eyed.

hero? They are not heroes. They eat well, dress well, and do nothing in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, but they still get this kind of treatment?

The applause sounded louder than expected.

In the entire food hall on the second floor, Space Brother’s barbecue stall is the largest and most conspicuous, with the best location, but in addition, there are a variety of restaurants and stalls, Chinese food and Western food roadside stalls, pancakes, fruit hot dogs, sweet Circle, as long as you think of fast food, it seems to have it all. At this time, the staff of the restaurant, the chef, etc., all stood at the door, applauding to everyone, and some people gave them a thumbs up.

"You can order whatever you want, and it will be delivered in the whole hall. There is no limit on the number of seats. Both Chinese and Western food can be brought to Brother Space." Brother Space waved his hand, and began to display his skills in grilling skewers.

A fat chef with a round stomach next to him yelled to grab the business: "Hot pot with skewers, the more you eat, the more enjoyable you are! Come, come! Our secret hot pot is well received by Mr. Nan, and you can get a membership card if you come to eat it now." , 30% off the entire site today, and 10% off the entire site in the future!"

"Young man, you can see that the place is almost full, we can also bring the skewers here to eat!"

"It doesn't matter how many skewers, the steak is enough! Charcoal-grilled steak, Mr. Nan's favorite! Come here, come here!" Another blond white man yelled in tongue-twisting Mandarin.

"It's delicious and not expensive, it's useless if you don't eat it! The traditional dessert ice powder green ball donkey rolls, there is always one you haven't tried!"

This place is probably the most stylish restaurant in the world. At an altitude of 200 kilometers, the entire earth seems to be within sight. This place should be a place where men and women in clothes dance or talk softly. But when the yelling sounded one after another, the atmosphere suddenly became so lively that it was comparable to a shirtless night market stall at night.

But the most lively one is still the barbecue stand of Brother Space, which can be seen from all over the country, up and down the Yellow River, in the cold winter and hot summer.

What's even more exaggerated is that the price of skewers is very common, which is basically the same as that on the ground. In such a high-end place, everyone is a little embarrassed to eat skewers at such a low price.

Someone asked: "Brother Space, you still sell such a low price here, can you earn back the rent and freight?"

Brother Space immediately became proud: "We are a gold medal merchant specially invited here. The rent is free for ten years, and the Lazy God Department directly supplies all kinds of ingredients, which is lower than the previous cost."

"What about ten years later?" the crowd asked.

"Ten years later? After ten years, I guess I will change my name to Huo Huan." Space Brother said with a smile.

Everyone wondered for a moment, the wild and wretched dance of a certain little man and his smaller brothers flashed in their minds, and then they realized that what Brother Spaceman meant was that maybe he would be selling skewers on Mars by then !

That's right, with the development speed of the lazy god system, it is estimated that in less than ten years, Brother Space will change his name to Brother Mars!

"But you don't have many customers here, right?" Someone asked again, there are only a group of customers in the entire hall, and this little money probably isn't enough for Martian to pay the waiters.

Thinking about it this way, everyone decided to leave more tips after the meal. Those who are lazy are all high-income people, and they are not short of money.

"Actually, there are still a lot. Although it is only open to employees and family members of the lazy god department, the employees and family members of our lazy god department are a big market with millions of people. Not to mention, in the future, we will be here. Those who want to sell to the whole world, wait until they open to the outside world..." Brother Huo Huan flipped through the price list hanging on the wall, and released the price list on the back that is eye-catching.

“Secret space mutton skewers 998 RMB/skewer, secret space chicken wings 598 RMB/skewer, secret grilled tendons 698 RMB/skewer…”

"Black! It's really dark!" Everyone stared wide-eyed, and then gave thumbs up.

Brother Space is not ashamed but proud, he smiled and said: "This is already considered cheap, I heard from Hao Cong that if this place is really opened to the outside world in the future, only billionaires will be able to afford it. Local, if you don’t slaughter them more, they are not happy, right? What is forced, this is called forced! How can there be forced if it is cheap?”

"That's right, for the sake of style, I respect Brother Kong Tian!" Someone raised the beer in his hand.

"Respect Mr. Nan, respect the lazy god!" Brother Space said, "Without Mr. Nan and the lazy god, I wouldn't be able to make such a fortune!"

"Yes, respect Mr. Nan, respect the lazy god!" The atmosphere suddenly became more enthusiastic.

However, some curious babies still have questions: "This place will be open to the public in the future? If it is open to the public, wouldn't they have to go to our camp first, and then take the elevator up, this will be quite a toss..."

The hinterland of Africa is not a fun place. Although the original scenery is beautiful and shocking, but after staying for a long time... birds fade out of the mouth.

"You guys haven't taken the subway yet, have you?" Brother Spaceman smiled, "Our place is just a station. If you take the elevator from other places, you can take the subway here."

"What kind of horse? The station...the subway?" Everyone stared wide-eyed. They just heard that they said to take the subway, but...this is in the universe, right? Why is there a subway?

"How many space elevators have we built?" The man with a flexible mind finally figured out something.

"As for the elevators, two or four have been built." Space Brother laughed.

"Ladder No. 1 is directly above Indonesia, with three hanging cables connecting Indonesia, Dongbin City and the southern Indian Ocean," Space Brother said.

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone was shocked. In theory, a space elevator can only be built on the equator, because only on the equator can the cable hang down vertically.

To build a space elevator to the northern and southern hemispheres, the technical difficulty is more than doubled!

This can't be called a space elevator, it should be called a space inclined elevator! No, it's called a space escalator!

But if you think about it carefully, you probably understand the reason for such a construction. The center of gravity of the space elevator must be directly above the equator. The headquarters of the lazy gods is in Dongbin, and one must be built in Dongbin. Then it must be in the southern Indian Ocean. Latitude and longitude build another one to balance the center of gravity.

But... a space elevator, three rappels? This is so sci-fi!

"I heard from Hao Cong that as long as the center of gravity does not shift, the design limit of each space elevator is one main cable and twelve auxiliary cables. It depends on the mood where it will be built in the future."

It is estimated that many countries will cry and clamor to build them there.

In the future, the geographical scope will no longer be divided by state and ocean, but will be divided into one zone and two zone by the number of the ladder where it is located...

Compared with the earth trebuchet on the equator, the space elevator of the lazy gods is obviously easier to cover the world, but where it is built, I am afraid that it is really up to the lazy gods to decide.

I just don't know if these countries will regret today's rejection of the Silence.

"The second ladder is where we are. Above the Congo, there is currently only one main cable connecting our camp."

"I suddenly felt... Our earth trebuchet is outdated before it is built..." Someone suddenly became depressed.

"It's still not the same." Brother Space laughed, "Hao Cong said, the space elevator is like a car, and the earth trebuchet is like a big truck. No matter how good a car is, it doesn't pull as much as a big truck. Really The great development of space still requires a heavy tool like the earth trebuchet."

Everyone nodded and became a little excited again.

The Trinity of the Bridge of Stars, the Space Elevator, and the Earth Trebuchet, the era of great space development for human beings is probably coming soon!

"The No. 3 ladder is even more powerful! It is currently directly above the Pacific Ocean, and its tail is connected to several giant ships."

Hearing Brother Spaceman say that, everyone's eyes widened!

The top is on the geosynchronous satellite, and the bottom is on the giant wheel, that is to say... this ladder connecting the sky and the earth is actually movable? Wherever you like to go?

"Now these two ships are in the Pacific Ocean near America and the South Pacific. I think Mr. Nan is planning to throw the other end to..."

"Western America!" Before Brother Space could say it, everyone shouted. Everyone is a person with high IQ, just think about it, and you will know what the lazy god is going to do!

Lazy gods, building a space elevator in Yankee's backyard!

Think about it, when this sling is completed, the lazy people in the American mainland will fall in love with going up, going down, coming and going, and the Yankees will go crazy!

How arrogant!

"It will start a war!"

"Fight his mother! Who is afraid of whom!"

"They're sure to carry dynamite packs and blow up the rapier..."

"Yanks don't use dynamite packs, they sure shoot missiles."

"Missiles are useful to lazy gods?"

"Dynamite packs are useless!"

"Whether to start a war or not is what Mr. Nan considers. I think Mr. Nan will be able to guarantee the safety of the hanging rope since he dares to do so." Brother Space continued: "Each hanging rope, at a height of 200 kilometers There is a similar square in both of them. Our subway is at an altitude of 200 kilometers. It transports commuters' "Earth-Moon Train" spaceship. It runs every ten minutes. It takes less than half an hour to get back to Dongbin Station from here, and take the elevator down. It’s home. The frequency is accurate and the flight distance is short, so it’s called the subway.”

"By the way, Dongbin Station is our main store. I'm here to welcome you all today. Do you want to get a membership card? It's universal for the whole store, and you can enjoy a 10% discount. You won't wait until it expires!"

After listening to Space Brother's explanation, everyone finally understood what a subway is.

200 kilometers high, commuting back and forth, connecting all the "ladders" into a whole sky subway?

Really are……

Awesome.
