Left alone on Mars, Lu Guansheng finally realizes that his younger brother has colluded with his competitor!
No food, no water source, and soon even the oxygen will be depleted.
When su...
In the golden autumn of October, Lu Guansheng was enjoying afternoon tea in Fuyuan.
It was at this time that Lu Qidong came with his stepmother.
"Is there something wrong?" Lu Guansheng did not go back to the house, but asked the servant to bring them to the pavilion in the garden.
"Guan Sheng! It's so hot, why don't you stay at home and enjoy the air conditioning instead of running out to feed mosquitoes in the garden?" Lu Qidong asked while fanning himself with his hands.
"Is it hot? A gentle breeze will make you feel cooler if you keep your mind calm!" Lu Guansheng took a sip of hot tea and looked up.
Looking at the steaming tea, Lu Qidong felt even hotter. He thought there was something wrong with his son!
"Guan Sheng! I have a document, can you please sign it for me?" Lu Qidong didn't bother to exchange pleasantries. He wanted to get down to business as soon as possible and leave as soon as possible, even in such a hot day!
"What documents?"
"You might not know this?" Lu Qidong said as he took out a file bag. "We won the special prize and will be moving to Space City next month! So..."
"Immigrate to the space city?" Lu Guansheng raised his eyebrows. Could these two people afford to go to that expensive "nursing home"?
I opened the document bag and took a look. Sure enough, it was a consent form for relinquishing the relationship with the immediate family.
"Are you going to enjoy yourself?" Although Lu Guansheng didn't like his father, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he really had to sign the agreement.
I thought, "Earlier, they refused to give up and insisted on custody, probably because they still cared about Jinhao. Now that they can't get anything, they just don't care about him anymore, right?"
"Is Lu Jiabao willing to sign?" Lu Guansheng thought of his mama's boy brother.
"Since it's not up to your mother, we won't burden you anymore!" Lu Qidong said it better than he sang.
You clearly want to enjoy a peaceful life, but you insist on going to Miri!
After signing, Lawrence Lu glanced at the person opposite him. At this moment, it really didn’t matter!
But something like “winning the lottery” sounds so strange!
As soon as the person left, Lawrence Lu turned on his headset: “Hei Zai, check what’s going on with the Space City lottery?”
"Space City?" Heizi asked, "Boss wants to immigrate?"
"Do you think it's possible?" Lu Guansheng retorted, "My parents, no, my ex-parents, are going to immigrate! They said they won a lottery."
"Boss, do you think something is fishy?"
"Yes! Space City Emperor Dragon is the major shareholder, right? By the way, please send me the information about Space City as well."
"Okay!"
Before I even finished my pot of tea, Heizi’s space city information arrived!
Such a large space structure can be seen from the ground with a telescope. There are also many pictures and promotional videos on TV and the Internet, as well as a documentary about the unveiling.
Everyone is actually familiar with the space city.
The space city, located in orbit in outer space, is a spherical grid structure that looks a bit like a globe that children climb.
On the outer nodes, there are two hemispherical, filter-like propeller structures, rotating rapidly.
It is this structure that creates the pulling force and forms artificial gravity.
Unlike natural planets, the gravity of this artificial "planet" is from the inside out. It's like hollowing out the Earth, with the interior of the crust being the ground, the sky above being the center of the circle, and the ground being the stars in the universe.
Each of these outer grids is over a hundred meters wide, with a main road in the middle and two rows of buildings on each side. These buildings are residential areas.
Extending further inward, there are three more layers of such spherical network structures, namely the commercial area, entertainment area and central control area.
Because of the free-fall motion in orbit, the space station also designed the rotation of this artificial planet. This rotation solves the awkward situation of sunrise and sunset every 90 minutes in orbit.
For those with better locations, the sunshine changes every 12 hours or so. For those with worse locations, it will be like near the Earth's Arctic Circle, with three or four hours of sunshine in winter and eighteen or nineteen hours of sunshine in summer.
These plots will have different price ranges according to residents' investment and economic affordability.
Of course, the space city has no seasons, with a constant temperature of 19 degrees Celsius year-round, making it comfortable and pleasant. There are no climate changes, and there is no wind or rain.
"This is worse than the desert!" Lu Guansheng doesn't like that kind of environment, it's very boring!
Of course, there's one benefit to that kind of environment: no mosquitoes! Not to mention mosquitoes, there are no other creatures at all! Those who want to keep pets can only keep robot pets.
The gardens there are pest-free, which is a lot less of a hassle! As for pollination, robots are responsible for it.
If you have the money to buy seeds and take good care of your flowers, plants, and fruits, that's fine too! As for meat and fish, that's going to cost a fortune! These all rely on regular, rationed supplies from the spacecraft.
As for fresh water, it is produced by combining liquid oxygen with hydrogen atoms in the solar wind. Liquid oxygen needs to be transported from Earth, so it is also in a rationed supply.
But there is no dust in the space city, so it is not dirty.
Seeing this, Lawrence Lu felt that he had gone off topic!
Yes, as a scientist, the construction of the space city attracted his attention more than its commercial operations.
Pursing his lips, he turned to the content he was supposed to read.
"Millions?" Thinking back to the contents of Lu Qidong's document, Lu Guansheng frowned. "Millions, even if they save a little, it's only enough for a year. How are they planning to get millions every year to cover their expenses?"
After seeing the Earth Account Card, Lu Guansheng contacted Hei Zai: "Can you help me check who is connected to their account card?"
"Lu Jiabao's account." Heizi replied in less than three minutes.
"If we break off the relationship, will Lu Jiabao give me money?"
"It's not severed. This is a one-way account. Holders of one-way accounts do not need to terminate their relationship and still have the right to immigrate."
