Chapter 234

Ji Lin guided Xiong's father into the forum and told him how to register.

"You can register directly with your citizen ID. Each bug is associated with a unique account, and you can use your real name to access the internet."

Jiwei started to create a user account, and carefully read the information that popped up and the agreement that needed to be agreed to when creating a user account.

Ji Lin didn't mind that Xiong's father ignored him and continued talking to himself.

"I just took a look around, and there's basically nothing to see. Maybe there aren't enough people with the terminals yet. Once they become more common, the internet will be bustling with activity."

"By the way, Father Xiong, please approve the application I sent you."

Ji Wei looked at the application box that popped up.

[User [Ji Lin] has requested to bind your 'Family Account'. Do you want to bind?]

【[whether]】

Ji Wei didn't click and asked, "What's the use of this?"

"If you want to buy anything later, you can directly transfer the money from my account." Ji Lin responded quickly. He said, "Just agree to it. You will have a lot of places to spend money in the future."

"If I have any, I'll spend mine first. You're welcome."

“…” Ji Wei felt a little itchy and wanted to knock on the bug’s head, but he couldn’t see it.

He raised his hand and nodded his agreement.

【You have bound [Ji Lin]'s family account. 】

"Is this all right?"

Ji Lin made an OK gesture and continued, "Actually, letting you bind is for your own good. Otherwise, I'd be worried about you outside."

"The basic credit points I've given you are only enough to buy nutritional supplements, not anything else."

The promotion of credit points will not happen overnight. It will gradually replace barter and make everyone accustomed to using credit points for transactions.

"Nutrients?"

Another new word I haven't heard of.

Ji Wei opened his personal account and found that the credit point balance was still zero, and there was no basic credit point limit as Ji Lin said.

"Didn't I say I bought a lot of things to give back? Besides some of these things being used for construction, many of them are for improving people's lives. But they certainly can't be given away for free, right?"

"Other things are fine, if they're not urgent, they're fine, but food is not."

"Nowadays, the food we have is either grown by ourselves or exchanged from the unicorns." Ji Lin sighed. He only found out about the shortage of food on Tianyun Star later.

"But what we grow ourselves isn't enough to eat. The food the One-Horned People have is also what the Ikars raised and sent to us. The two together are what keep us from starving to death."

"But we can't keep going like this. Nutritional supplements can completely replace our need for food."

Ji Lin turned around and took out the nutritional supplements he had saved from the cabinet, and said with a beaming expression, "Look, Father Xiong, this is it."

Seal it in a transparent plastic bag, about the thickness of a conscience and about the length of a palm.

"One tube like this can basically support the body's daily consumption. Even if you do some physical work, three tubes a day can still make you feel full."

"It tastes better than blue cassava and contains all the trace elements the body needs. You will never suffer from malnutrition due to insufficient vitamin intake by eating this."

“If you want a change of flavor, there are dozens to choose from.”

"Oh, and there are cans." Ji Lin took out a fist-sized can. "It's filled with all kinds of meat, some are chunks, some are pureed. Anyway, there are quite a few kinds."

"If it weren't for your permission, I'd really like to ask 001 to send a few for you to try."

Ji Wei looked at the thing in his hand curiously. After hearing what he said, he smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't matter. Didn't you say that you can exchange it later? It will be the same if Xiong's father exchanges it for a taste."

"I recommend you buy these flavors, Father Xiong... I think they're the best."

"Ah, we almost went off topic." Ji Lin quickly brought the subject back.

"It's this nutritional supplement. I heard from Lan Yi that it's priced at three credit points per tube."

"Based on the food intake of the young and adult insects, basic credit points will be allocated to citizens' accounts. This will be approximately 500 to 1000 points. These credit points will be locked and can only be used to purchase nutritional supplements."

Lan Yi's explanation for this was "to avoid unexpected situations" and that the credits were distributed on the premise that every insect could survive, as he didn't want them to use the credits needed for survival for other purposes.

In short, it involves a series of complex variable calculations, which are not areas that Ji Lin needs to understand in detail, so he didn't ask in detail.

"If nothing unexpected happens, nutritional supplements will replace the natural foods we eat now."

Ji Wei shook his head and corrected his statement: "It's not should, it's definitely."

"Like you said, there are so many benefits to nutritional supplements. Anyone with a decent mind would know which one to choose."

The entry of identity information and the popularization of terminals mean that the current situation of the entire gathering place will be completely changed. Every insect has to feed itself, even male insects are no exception.

"This basic credit point won't be issued continuously."

Ji Lin was surprised: "Father Xiong, you are so smart. Lan Yi did say that he would not continue to send them out."

Ji Wei: "There's a limit on the credit limit, and it's locked in so it can only be used to buy food. In a way, isn't this encouraging people to work and earn credit points?"

"Just like you."

Ji Lin nodded: "That's right. After all, the doctor said that everyone should be self-reliant and support themselves so that they can live a better life than they do now."

"This is the meaning of his coming to Tianyun Star."

Since Ji Wei could give birth to such a smart insect cub like Ji Lin, he must not be that stupid. He associated Ji Lin's words with what Ji Lin said before.

"Go to work, all the Zerg?"

"certainly."

Ji Lin wanted to hear Lan Yi's plan to increase employment, so he coughed and said, "The doctor said that the construction of Tianyun Star requires the participation of all Zerg."

"In the new era, both male and female insects need to be self-reliant."

The days of relying on one-man production and muddling through like we do now are gone forever.

Although Ji Wei had expected this, he was still a little confused when he heard the words from the male insect cub. "We all need to work? What kind of jobs do we need to do?"

"There are all kinds of jobs, but there will definitely be fewer jobs at the beginning. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a need to issue basic credit points to help everyone transition."

"Father Xiong, if you have a job that interests you, don't be afraid of not being able to do it well. After all, we are all newbies and no one has any experience."

There is no problem in supporting the male father with my own salary, but the doctor has always encouraged the male insect to give full play to his strengths, so if the male father is interested, it would be good to give it a try.

Thinking of the pitiful employment ratio between male and female insects, Ji Lin, as a male insect, couldn't help but shed tears.

"Go ahead, I'll support you."

Ji Wei: "...Things that 001 didn't even mention, seem to have come true in your mouth."

"It's just a matter of time." Ji Lin said nonchalantly, "I have confidence in you, Father Xiong. Seeing how well you take care of me, I know you won't have trouble finding a job if you want."

Didn’t Lan Yi say that there is a big shortage of insects to take care of the cubs? If it really doesn’t work out, there will be no problem for the male father to do the job of taking care of the cubs.

"Xiao Lin has so much confidence in Xiong Da, how could Xiong Da let you down?"

You can't be worse than your own son.

Ji Wei, who was already very interested in learning new knowledge, thought about it and decided to continue studying and keep up with this era of great changes.

The unchanging situation on Tianyun Star has probably only now undergone truly unpredictable changes.

"Have you ever seen that doctor, sir?"

"What kind of...bug is he? Is he one of our kind?"

This question stumped Ji Lin.

"Yes, I have met him. He is a very charming person."

"I don't know if they're from the same tribe as us. The Doctor has always appeared in human form, without any signs of intentional alien mimicry."

"Even if it's one of our own kind, it should be a female insect."

Although I have never seen the doctor's fighting ability, he does not look like a weak person. That kind of strong and calm self-confidence must come from strong and indestructible strength.

"So..." Ji Wei nodded, indicating that he understood.

"Remember to take care of yourself when you are outside, and try not to rush to the front when there is danger." Ji Wei reminded with concern.

Ji Lin touched his nose and said, "Nothing dangerous will happen to me. I am very safe under the protection of the starship. Besides... the other female insects responsible for security on the starship are not just for show."

He originally wanted to say that he still had mental strength and was not completely unable to protect himself.

But when the words came to his lips, Ji Lin swallowed them back.

As far as he knew, he seemed to be the only male insect on the entire Tianyun Star with psychic power. Even though he didn't know what this meant, he vaguely guessed that this might not be entirely a good thing.

Forget it, I’ll talk to Xiong’s father when I have the chance.

The father and son chatted for a long time, mainly Ji Wei listening and Ji Lin talking.

Ji Lin, who has seen the world, meets Xiong's father who is extremely curious.

Even though he is the president of the Chamber of Commerce who has the final say in public, in front of his father he can only be the little bug who satisfies his father's curiosity, talking and talking until his mouth is dry.

Only in this way was he let go by his father.

Communication ended.

Ji Wei looked at the grayed-out interface on the terminal, sighed softly, and muttered to himself: "Xiao Lin is working so hard, and I, as his father, can't hold him back."

"Looking for a job..." I'm afraid the male insects in Area 1 will be the first to get angry.

Compared with the female insects, it is not an exaggeration to say that the male insects live a life of luxury. It would be difficult to ask them to fend for themselves now.

Not all male insects are like him and are willing to try to accept change.

Take studying for example, many male insects are unwilling to go, even though they are in Area 1 and have better learning conditions and educational environment than other areas.

...Fortunately, not all male insects are like this, otherwise it would be really difficult for me to find allies.

Ji Wei turned off his computer, put on two thick layers of clothes, and prepared to go out to visit friends.

The living environment of male insects is good, but no matter how good it is, the population is very dense. Therefore, it only took Ji Wei a few minutes to reach his first friend's home.

The male insect who opened the door and let him in was a little surprised: "Wei? Why did you come to see me in such a cold day?"

The physical fitness of male insects is far inferior to that of female insects. Even if going out in this kind of weather does not kill them, it will definitely make them feel uncomfortable.
