Chapter 175 Malicious Perception(1/2)
"I kept asking you when will you come with me~ but you always laughed at me~I have nothing~everything~"
Just when Lu Chuan was chatting with Thirty about Zhang Sanwen, Zhang Sanwen was humming happily alone at home.
Of course, happiness belongs to him alone. On the first and fifteenth day of the year, he hid in a cat's house with good sound insulation, but he still covered his cat's ears with his paws and rolled in pain, as if Sun Monkey had heard Tang
It’s like Tripitaka’s tightening spell.
Zhang Sanwen held a stack of information in his hand. The information was forwarded to him by Zhang Qinghe. The content was about students who Jing Guo hoped to arrange for exchange studies at Utopia First University.
Jing Guo has always been interested in Utopia's education. From the first time Jing Congyun visited Utopia, the most he brought back were textbooks for Utopia's primary and secondary schools.
This time Jingguo not only hoped that Utopia would be open to studying abroad, but was also willing to pay high tuition fees for studying abroad, and would even accept arrangements for students to take the unified college entrance examination in Utopia.
Zhang Sanwen looked at the information in his hand and felt very envious in his heart.
Jingguo is located on the north side of the mainland, with 34 counties. Its territory and population are dozens of times that of Utopia. They just took Utopia's teaching materials, quickly organized manpower for research and study, and soon cultivated a group of quality people.
Very tall student.
After tasting the benefits, Jingguo is of course willing to let these students further study. When these seeds grow up, they can bring the utopian higher education knowledge back to Jingguo and develop Jingguo's own scientific education career.
.
It's a pity that this information came at the wrong time. Yesterday, Luo Dingguo rushed back to Utopia overnight and brought home the latest news. After Lu Chuan's confirmation, Jing Guo was behind the attack on the Chamber of Commerce in Chunzhou County.
Of course, when synchronizing information with several other ministers, it was said that Lu Chuan reviewed the scene when the Chunzhou County Chamber of Commerce was attacked and judged that people from Jingguo were behind it.
Although everyone knows that Jingguo cannot always be of the same mind as Utopia, this approach of doing one thing in front of others and behind the other's back still makes the top executives of Utopia feel very annoyed. Unfortunately, the time is not yet ripe for Utopia to agree with Jingguo.
When you fall out.
At such a juncture, I received this open study abroad application, coupled with the unequal information, it was not an easy decision to make whether to accept or reject it.
"Boss, we have successfully arrived in Wuchuan. Today we accidentally captured Cao Chenjing, the murderer who attacked Chunzhou County found by Wu Guo."
Zhang Sanwen was confused after receiving the news from Lu Chuan. Why did you arrest him? Didn't you already know that it had nothing to do with him?
He asked whatever he thought, and soon received a reply from Lu Chuan, "So I caught him accidentally. He fled south from Chunzhou, and we happened to bring the caravan to Wuchuan, and we met each other.
Already."
Zhang Sanwen laughed. This man was really unlucky. The people in Jingguo didn't know why they framed him, but he finally escaped and was caught on the spot by Lu Chuan.
"This time I traveled almost across the entire continent in one trip. Do you have any special insights or gains?"
Zhang Sanwen asked, and Lu Chuan recalled his journey. Although most of the cities were just glimpses, there were also many scenery that left an impression on him.
There is the Mountain Creeping Beast from Longling County that looks like a big wild boar, the Drunken Angel Fish by the Xingling River, the Bubble Beast from Fu County that will burp after eating its meat, and the Yangwu County hiding in the yard late at night.
of wanderers.
When they passed through Changzheng County, they saw a volcano erupting in the distance. It was said that a powerful fire beast might be born there.
It rained heavily when they passed by Dingchang County. Yu Huan soared into the sky with great pride, saying that he wanted to smash the dark clouds. As a result, the clouds broke, but the rain did not stop at all.
There was also the local specialty food of Wuchuan that we just had for dinner, a huge snake-shaped monster, which scared the two girls Qin Xiao and Ding Xingrong so hard that they didn’t dare to eat a bite.
But when the boss asked Lu Chuan, he would definitely complain first, "Don't mention it, boss. I'm either in the car or flying. I work when I get to the place. I almost drowned after taking a bath in the Xingling River. It's too hard to go on a business trip."
However, the gap between the rich and the poor in Wu Kingdom is really exaggerated. I had never been in contact with sects when I was in Beining City before, so I thought Wu Kingdom was very poor.
Moreover, when I was in Beining City and Lujiacun before, I felt that ordinary people were living a good life, but when I went to the Western Region this time, I really felt that people were a bit like weeds."
At first, Lu Chuan felt that selling a mobile phone for 100 yuan was a money grab. However, the sects of the Wu Kingdom seemed to think that Utopia was giving away money and felt that they had made a huge profit.
In addition to what he saw and heard along the way, he would chat with Wu Jiande and other presidents in the car every day.
Although the Wu State was a system of prefectures and counties, most of the county guards and city lords were royals, and it was a bit like a combination of prefectures and counties. After the founding of the Wu State, it did not completely change many of the habits inherited from the Wanfa calendar. It did not like to create
Wealth and value favor mergers and plunder.
This resulted in the institution with stronger military force getting the most resources and wealth. The ordinary people and officials of Wu Kingdom were poor, but the sect and royal family were very rich. The whole society was rapidly polarized and entered a vicious circle.
And the most absurd thing is that the fastest and most effective way for ordinary people to rise in the Wu Kingdom is to have children. As long as a family is lucky enough to give birth to a child with great spiritual talent and is favored by a large sect, the entire family will follow the child.
Entering the sect immediately completes the class jump.
Therefore, ordinary people in the Wu Kingdom had a very high fertility rate despite the extremely harsh social environment. If a genius was born, a chicken or dog would ascend to heaven; if a waste was born, the child would receive leeks and labor force +1.
"Traveling on business will indeed be a bit tiring. It will be good for you to go out and see more. It won't be that hard after you come back to Utopia." Zhang Sanwen replied with a smile.
"It was like this when we first came here. Looking through the history books of this world, the people here have been like this for hundreds of thousands of years. They were born and died like weeds in a place where the monks from above could not see.
We, the people, cannot join the others, nor can we stand indifferently, but our individual power is too weak in front of the entire world and society, so we came together and created this utopia."
...
The next morning, October 18, Lu Chuan and others set off from Wuchuan City at dawn, preparing to go to Fengling to pick up people, and then rushed to Laizhou to take a plane.
Yu Huan carried Cao Chenjing, who was in a coma and had been drugged and restrained, and naturally stuffed him into the trunk of the car, leaving no dignity for the unlucky extraordinary supreme being.
Fengling County is mostly mountainous and is the main transportation route from Wu State to the Eastern Front. Lu Chuan's convoy encountered several questionings along the way, both normal and abnormal.
The normal interrogation required the caravan's credentials, verification of identity, and release. The abnormal Yu Huan would immediately run away with a slight outburst of breath.
Just before noon, Lu Chuan received the caravan from Fengling City. Liu Mingjiang's clone had arrived in Laizhou in advance. Receiving the caravan from Fengling City meant that all eight caravans in the east had been confirmed to be safe.
After everyone had lunch in Fengling, they changed cars and continued driving to Laizhou in the east. The further east they went, the more they felt the atmosphere of war. There were fewer and fewer people and carriages on the official road, and most of the people were
In the opposite direction to them, on the border far away from the east.
In the afternoon, Lu Chuan received a message from the customer service contact that everyone comes with after the latest version update.
Utopia's caravan has withdrawn from the three borders of Wu Kingdom, but the sales channels for shops in these places still need to be opened. Therefore, the main content of this message is that Utopia is recruiting dealers within the three borders of Wu Kingdom.
, interested parties are welcome to come to Dingxicheng to discuss cooperation matters.
For Utopia, the distribution model is most in line with the current situation. Their purpose is to spread the goods as much as possible, not necessarily to sell them themselves.
Afraid that the people receiving the notice would not understand the meaning of distribution, Utopia made the matter very straightforward. In Wu State, a mobile phone sold for at least 100 yuan can be purchased in Dingxicheng for only 90 yuan. The order volume is large.
If so, the price can be negotiated.
As for how many yuan stones they can sell after they bring them back, it depends on the individual's ability. The profit of a trip is at least 10%, there is no upper limit, and mobile phones are still in a very popular state in the Wu Kingdom. After receiving the news
Many people were tempted.
A profit of 10% is enough to make the businessmen and sects of Wu Kingdom ready to take action, and Utopia is also considerate of speculators like them.
The news said that Utopia was purchasing a large amount of grain, and dealers going to Dingxicheng could bring the grain with them. Even if the distribution cooperation failed to be negotiated and the goods were not available, they would not leave empty-handed.
So what are you waiting for? It’s just a trip to Dingxi City. People from the Wu Kingdom who have mobile phones in their hands have long heard that there are many good things in Utopia, so this time it’s time to stop by and take a look.
Not only the merchants are tempted, but the gluttons in the Western Territory are also starting to get excited. So many fat sheep are about to come to the Western Territory from all over the Wu Kingdom. When they return, they will be full of Utopia's goods. They must not be "entertained" on the road.
"Are they going to do something?
...
"Your Majesty, we can no longer allow mobile phones to expand at will in Wu Kingdom. The Utopians really have bad intentions. No wonder they are willing to sell such a magical treasure at such a low price."
In the palace of Wu State, Ji Xingwu worriedly told Wu Yue that as soon as he saw the message from the "customer service" on his mobile phone, he immediately rushed into the palace to discuss with Emperor Wu.
"What Mr. Ji is talking about is this 'customer service' function. People in Utopia can contact people who want to win over us at will through their mobile phones. We really need to be vigilant."
Wu Yue frowned and looked at his phone. He thought this gadget was quite interesting. There was a game called Big Hair Cube in it, but it was too time-consuming.
But I still don’t know what this “big hair” means.
"However, mobile phones also have many advantages. Just like the attack on the Utopia Chamber of Commerce in Chunzhou County. If all the officials in Chunzhou County were equipped with mobile phones, I wouldn't have dealt with it in such an awkward manner."
"Your Majesty, you are not just trying to win over people. If Utopia has the power to communicate with all mobile phone users at any time, it will be easy for them to spread rumors and incite people's hearts.
Moreover, we don’t know how a mobile phone works, and we don’t understand why it can transmit messages in time from thousands of miles away. But what if the control of this ability is in the hands of Utopia?
Sooner or later, we will have a battle with Utopia. If Utopia suddenly stops this ability, then won’t the mobile phones we spent a lot of yuan stones to buy become waste?"
Emperor Wu's expression also became serious. The possibility mentioned by Ji Xingwu did exist, and once people in the Wu Kingdom became accustomed to using mobile phones to communicate, and one day the mobile phones suddenly became unusable, big trouble would probably occur.
"The veteran also has a more alarmist conjecture. If the Utopians can see the content of our communications on our mobile phones, then as more and more of us use mobile phones, what secrets does the Wu Kingdom have?"
After Ji Xingwu finished speaking, he lowered his head, and the breathing of the two people could be heard quietly in the hall.
"What Mr. Ji said makes sense, but since we have negotiated peace and trade with Utopia, how can we ban the circulation and use of mobile phones among the people and various sects?"
"This matter has a huge impact, and we need to convene various ministers to discuss it in detail. But we must understand the principle of mobile phones, and why the Utopians are so persistent in selling mobile phones throughout the Wu Kingdom. This is not just for Yuanshi's interests.
"
Emperor Wu looked at Ji Xingwu speechlessly. You didn't have any ideas, so you hurriedly said that you wanted to ban the proliferation of mobile phones.
"Then, according to what the Prime Minister said, it is reported that the six ministers will come to the palace immediately to discuss the matter. The Ministry of Rites is ordered to send a note to Utopia to discuss the matter of students from Wuguo College studying in Utopia. In addition, we also asked us to arrange for the spies in Utopia to do their best to find out about the mobile phone.
Determine its secret as soon as possible."
"I obey the decree."
...
"Our people in Wu Kingdom received the news. Utopia used the 'customer service' function to send them information about recruiting dealers, but we did not receive this information."
Utopia proactively reached out to mobile phone users for the first time, and it was not just Wu State who was shocked. Jing Congyun, who was far away in Jing State, also immediately held a meeting on the matter.
"This new version has powerful functions. In this way, if the two countries are at odds in the future, they will have an absolute advantage in propaganda and public opinion."
