Chapter 125: No Chance of Recovery

Jiang Qi was born into a working-class family in Taiyang.

His father used to be a foreman, but he was ostracized because he was unwilling to deduct the wages of gangsters like other foremans, and eventually died under mysterious circumstances in the factory.

Later, his mother raised him alone. Before she died of exhaustion, she gave him all the family's savings and let him come to the college.

Hong Lili's hometown is in the countryside under Zhulan. Originally, the family planned to send only her brother to school. However, during the heavy snowstorm caused by Qi Zicheng that year, her brother first fell ill and died, and then the whole family died one after another, because she was in He was born after his family was sold to Zhulan, so there was no deed of sale left.

Finally, after her family members were all dead, she came to the college with the travel expenses that her parents would rather starve to death than spend.

Li Wei had learned about the backgrounds of these two people from Zhu Long, and the academy's news was not closed. They already knew what happened to Taiyang and Zhulan.

After hearing Li Wei talk about this topic, Jiang Qi's eyes obviously had a different look than before.

"A week after the workers in Yuguang revolted, the news reached the college. At first I was excited about such a thing, but soon I became worried about their situation."

he said seriously.

"The workers were very smart. They first occupied most of the barrier field area that supports the entire production of the sun, and also seized an intercity tunnel that can conduct trade with the outside world. In this way, they prevented their emergence, because the ore, iron, and coal of the sun cannot be sold. Going out, resulting in a shortage of raw materials in other dungeons, forced them to fall back to the Yaoguang military government. "

"After taking control of the factory, the workers can sell directly to the outside world, eliminating the need for exploitation at all levels. As a result, the price of raw materials sold to the outside world has dropped far. This has caused many underground cities to be wary of the ongoing war in the sun. Stay on the sidelines. Because this incident has not affected them, but is beneficial to them. They are even willing to watch the war continue and secretly sell weapons to Yuguang workers. "

"The attitude of the central government is also the same. After the workers announced their rebellion against the Sun Government, they also declared that they recognized the rule of the central royal council and the cabinet, and that the central government was still the dominant force. This is why a large number of nobles in the central government dared to rebel against the workers and become the masters. I was very unhappy, but because Sun's geographical location was too remote and had minimal impact on them, the central government only issued a decree to condemn the Yuguang workers and asked them to put down their weapons as soon as possible and accept the rule of the Yaoguang government again, and then Let’s talk about the conditions.”

"The labor situation seems to be very good now. The military government only wants to make money in Yaoguang, which has led to many people in Yaoguang fleeing. There are no soldiers, no support, and they are losing ground in frontal confrontations. But in reality "If the workers really break into Yaoguang, oust the military government and establish a government that is entirely decided by the workers themselves, then they are really close to death."

When Jiang Qi talked about this, his logic was very clear, and it was obvious that he had been paying attention to the development of the situation in the sun. He could not tell everything about what was happening there. It could also be said that he had collected all the news circulating outside. Otherwise, it would be impossible to analyze it so thoroughly.

This made Levi a little surprised by him, and he followed his words and asked.

"Why do you say that?"

"The reason why other underground cities and the central government are not involved now is because the workers do not yet have actual political power. They only control factories and a trade line, which is nothing. The entire sun is still in the hands of the military government, that is, the upper class nobles. At the same time, It can also bring them considerable benefits, but once the workers successfully occupy the entire sun, the nature of everything will be different."

"This goes against the underground world order that the Central Committee has established in the new century since the end of the chaotic old century! This is absolutely unacceptable. And by that time, they didn't even have to spend much effort. Those who just relied on gunpowder and firearms to seize The workers of the solar regime have no scientists who understand the rules.”

"As long as the central government orders the Atmosphere Institute to stop maintaining the sun's weather, it will directly turn the sun into a place of chaos. Then without further ado, a third-level scientist will be dispatched from any nearby place to go to the sun to carry out beheading operations. Workers The fruits of countless lives and blood will be taken away again!"

When he said this, Jiang Qi's tone had turned cold. He had obviously completely brought himself into the perspective of the workers, anxious and resentful.

"At that time, all the powerful people before Yaoguang have been cleared away, and the upper level of the center can re-divide the cake of the sun! All the benefits that the workers thought they had won will be divided again! After this time, the workers will Our lives will be even worse than before!”

After listening to his story, Levi's eyes became even more different, and he asked.

"These things shouldn't be taught in the academy, right? Where did you learn them?"

The conversation had already gone so deep, and of course Jiang Qi had no need to hide it. He drank the water in the cup and said in a low voice.

"Some things in geology require consulting a large amount of literature. The teachers asked me to do these tedious and meaningless tasks. In the central library of the college, I used this authority to read a lot of prohibited special admissions. Browsing through sociology and political science books that have never been taught publicly.”

This couldn't help but make Li Wei look at him with admiration. The academy was indignant about why the world had become like this. There were many confused special admissions students, but there were very few of them who had the opportunity and courage to truly come into contact with relevant knowledge. few.

Jiang Qi is obviously one of them.

Then, Li Wei's eyes turned to Hong Lili. This girl looked more simple. When Jiang Qi was talking, she had been eating, and she was eating very seriously. Even if a drop of soup fell on the table, She would also tear off a small piece of skin from the steamed bun, dip it clean and eat it carefully.

"What about Zhulan? Classmate Hong, do you think the farmers in Zhulan have a chance to be like the workers in the Sun?"

Hong Lili tried hard to swallow the food in her mouth that was still chewed. She looked as simple as in a wheat field.

"I haven't read as many books as Jiang Qi, but the situation of Zhulan farmers will only get worse. Not to mention mobilizing scientists, even if all the landowners in that city have been killed by that good man named Zhao Wei, The farmers were unable to organize any resistance. The landowners in the area had all become families, and their control over the land was extremely strict. Some time ago, the farmers had already tried their best to escape from Zhulan to Taiyang. All the effort.”

Although she didn't analyze Zhulan's future situation as clearly as Jiang Qi did, she was indeed right.

In Zhulan, where all the farmers were divided and differentiated and unable to unite and organize together, it was almost impossible for workers to collectively fight against the upper class like the Sun.

Zhulan can only think of ways from the top and continue to weaken the landlords before she can really find a way out.

But this way out is ultimately the same as what Jiang Qi said is the most likely ending for Taiyang now. The central royal family and the Council of Ministers will never allow this to happen.

It is also very simple to regain control of the city. The rules are the horizontal ditch that ordinary people cannot cross!

Not to mention the third level, even if a second level is sent to behead the government formed by workers or farmers, the results they have paid countless blood and human lives will eventually be in vain.

This is why the central government is not worried at all about the situation in the Sun, and has no intention of intervening prematurely.

They even hoped that the workers would capture Yaoguang, so that they could have more cakes that could be divided directly after the war.

"In fact, the fundamental problem is that the most violent weapons in the world are no longer gunpowder, guns, and cannons. The privatization of rules allows individuals to completely surpass the power of the group. As long as the channels for people to control the rules are completely controlled, the oppressed No matter how people unite and resist, it is all in vain.”

"That's why the college established today's special admissions system. They need a lot of laboratory supplies, but they don't want a group of people like us to really come into contact with the rules. As long as none of the descendants of farmers and laborers can master the original truth of the world. Otherwise, they will never be able to stand up again!"

Li Wei made such a conclusion, Jiang Qi fell silent, and Hong Lili was still eating.

Such a conclusion is indeed desperate. As they said at the beginning, the more you know, the more you will want to end the world.

"But if you have a chance in the future and can get a key like those formal students, what will you do?"

Levi was also eating, as if he casually put forward a hypothesis, a conjecture that had no basis at all.

Jiang Qi's eyes became firm.

"I'm going back to the sun. Where is my home? Even if I die there, that's enough. I don't want to be a mediocre beast. Only cattle and sheep don't know how to resist. Even if the price is death, people will do it. Fight!”

Hong Lili didn't speak, she just looked at the wall beside her in a daze, as if Li Wei's words were simply an unrealistic dream.

This dream serves no purpose other than to paralyze themselves.

Levi didn't ask any more questions. He pushed the dishes towards where Hong Lili and Jiang Qi were sitting.

"Nice to meet you. I'm treating you today. Let's eat freely. As for the future."

he said softly.

"Who can say for sure."

In this bustling restaurant, Hong Lili and Jiang Qi met Li Wei for the first time, and were invited to have a sumptuous dinner for the first time.
