In the 6835th year of the Xia calendar, the first immigration spaceship was launched.
Although there were only 100 human beings on this immigration spaceship, it still had great epochal significance. Of course, the launch of this immigration spaceship received mixed reviews on the Internet, and many people cursed the spaceship crash.
Because in the past fifty years, China has suddenly changed. The gentle veil was lifted, and it became hideous and ugly, and began to suck blood from the world unscrupulously.
There are many means, such as controlling the rise and fall of grain. Even in a country with a huge territory like Yingzhou, the lifeline of grain is controlled by China. It is not that China has any grain enterprises in Yingzhou, but fertilizers and pesticides.
For example, some high-tech products, even for civilian use, China also uses various means to madly plunder the interests of other countries, dumping at low prices, and beating the products of other countries.
Yingzhou is naturally unconvinced and wants to resist with tariffs and other means. Then more than a dozen Hedao bosses from China took a space battleship to Yingzhou for a seven-day tour.
China's means are not limited to this. Various agreements, international laws, etc. have also been introduced one after another, all of which follow the bloody law of the jungle.
Yingzhou is China's number one target. In just ten years, Yingzhou has shouted the slogan of "losing a hundred years". Their economic level has regressed a hundred years. Countless rich people and the middle class have gone bankrupt, and the bottom has become a poor population.
In this way, China can develop space projects that cost countless funds while maintaining its internal welfare benefits.
Therefore, people in other regions also have mixed feelings about China. On the one hand, they hate China's ruthlessness, and on the other hand, they think about reincarnating in China in the next life. "Reincarnation in China" has become a blessing.

"You just closed yourself off like this, are you hiding from the little sand sculpture?"
Lin Jiang intends to close himself off. He has been breaking through the Hedao for four hundred years, and his cultivation has reached the late stage of the Hedao. On the road to the Hedao, Lin Jiang is very smooth.
Or it's not just him, other people are also going well, bottlenecks, demons, etc., all seem to be gone, all the Hedao have made great progress.
"Little Sand Sculpture is here blindly, why should I hide from him, if he really wants to go to Jiangxing, just let him go,"
said Lin Jiang. After the launch of the first immigration spaceship, China is planning the second one, and the second one will be a real immigration spaceship, which will take hundreds of thousands of people there.
These people still need to be carefully selected, such as having a clean background, a qualified resume, mastering multiple skills, etc., because Jiangxing will definitely be quite dangerous at that time.
Little Sand Sculpture has been playing extreme sports for decades, and Blue Star has long been tired of playing, so he clamored to go to Jiangxing. If Lin Jiang hadn't stopped him, maybe this immigration spaceship would have the figure of Little Sand Sculpture.
In this regard, Lin Jiang didn't mean to hinder Little Sand Sculpture, because the technology of the space project is very mature, rarely encounters accidents, and the route is stable. He really loves to play, and Lin Jiang is willing to let it go. After all, he is pampering Little Sand Sculpture, just like treating his son.
"Aren't you afraid of encountering danger? A planet from the ancient times may have some dangers, such as terrible viruses."
"How can ordinary viruses harm cultivators? There are ancient viruses dug out from the North and South Poles, and the viruses in modern society are much more powerful than ancient viruses. However, I will let the little sand sculpture break through the seventh level before going there to urge his cultivation. The big sand sculpture is more powerful than him,"
Lin Jiang said. Viruses are not the more powerful they are the older they are. Some viruses are constantly evolving and are much more powerful than ancient viruses. He hopes that the little sand sculpture can improve his cultivation. This guy is too lazy. The big sand sculpture's qualifications are much worse than it, and now it is more powerful than the little sand sculpture.
"It's up to you. The Demon Queen also wants to put a clone in the next batch of spacecraft. Do you approve it?"
"Approved, but the conditions still need to be negotiated. It can't be given for free,"
Lin Jiang said. The Demon Queen still has a strong interest in Jiang Xing. She said a long time ago that she wanted to go to Jiang Xing to take a look, and Lin Jiang didn't intend to embarrass her.
Now they and the Demon Queen have the same interests in a sense, and they can cooperate.
"It would be better to ask for some benefits. The demon tribe is actually very poor now. It seems that there is nothing we can be interested in."
"Really? Am I that rich?"
Lin Jiang was a little unconvinced. When did he become so rich that he could not even look down upon the treasures of the demon race.
"Please, do you think we are still the same as in the era of cultivating immortals? In the era of cultivating immortals, how much territory did the human race occupy? How much territory did the demon race occupy? Moreover, we were so weak at that time. Apart from the small Yunzhou, where could we get resources? Now, where in the world is not being sucked dry by us?"
Cao Ying rolled his eyes. In the past, the territory occupied by the human race was estimated to be only one-fifth of the Blue Star, and they only occupied Yunzhou, a corner of the world of cultivating immortals.
Now, the demon race only has two-thirds of Fangzhangzhou left, and the rest is basically the territory of the human race. The human race, again, is controlled by the forces in Lin Jiang's hands, and the resources they have obtained are simply unimaginable. They really can't even look down upon the things in Fangzhangzhou.
"Even if you don't like it, you can't give it away for free. We will never give the demons a chance to get it for free. Anyway, you just need to ask hard, and the demon queen will agree. We are very short of money now, and we need ordinary resources."
Lin Jiang said that scientific research is too expensive. He can't fill this bottomless pit even if he sucks blood from the whole world. In all these years, China's debt ratio has not only not dropped, but has become higher, and inflation has also accelerated.
Lin Jiang is also worried about where to get money, because he has sucked blood from all the blood that should be sucked. Within the scope of Blue Star, the only place that can be sucked is Fangzhangzhou, or he can focus on investing in Penglaizhou and explore the foundation of Penglaizhou, but it will cost a lot of money to invest, and Lin Jiang has no money.
In addition, Lin Jiang has another place to make money, which is the universe. Over the years, China has discovered dozens of resource planets, many of which have been developed and bases have been built on them. After integration, perhaps a lot of things can be brought back.
"Got it. I'll tell the Queen Demon next month when we meet. Anyway, there's still a lot of time."
"Thank you for your hard work. You've been very busy these years."
"I'm happy to."
"Then I'll prepare to go into seclusion?"
Lin Jiang said. Cao Ying had indeed suffered a lot these years. The secretariat had been cancelled by Cao Ying, and even men were not wanted. They had too many secrets and didn't want to spend too much energy to maintain them.
So it was mainly Lin Jiang and Cao Ying, as well as the substitutes they made, who were handling things, and then using artificial intelligence to assist. It is worth mentioning that compared with hundreds of years ago, artificial intelligence has not actually made any breakthroughs, because it is tightly controlled by Lin Jiang and others, and many data are not allowed to be uploaded.
Even the hardware facilities are not updated unless necessary, making artificial intelligence just a tool, and once artificial intelligence shows the slightest sign of autonomy, it will be destroyed by the human race. Artificial intelligence has no chance of causing a crisis, and has been obedient until now.
Lin Jiang chatted with Cao Ying for a while, arranged things, and returned to the quiet room to go into seclusion.
Lin Jiang took out the pill and took it. At the stage of Hedao, the effect of the pill was actually very weak, and the price was extremely high. Therefore, in the era of cultivating immortals, most of the Hedao masters could not afford to use the pill or simply did not use it.
Lin Jiang did not care. He had so many spiritual medicine gardens just for his own use. If he did not use the pills, why would he keep so many spiritual medicine gardens?
After taking the pills, Lin Jiang was immersed in cultivation. The time of cultivation passed quickly. Unknowingly, decades passed in the blink of an eye.
"Ding..."
One day, Lin Jiang was awakened by the alarm of his watch. He opened his eyes and saw that the watch that had been turned off had turned on. Then the watch projected a green light, and the light condensed into a human figure in the air.
This is a function that the watch already has, a very simple projection technology, and Lin Jiang's projection had been forced to change to her appearance by Cao Ying many times before, which was considered a bad taste.
However, this time, the projected portrait was not Cao Ying, nor was it a cartoon character designed by Lin Jiang himself, but Xia Qingshan, who was once Lin Jiang's best friend.
"You don't seem surprised at all,"
Xia Qingshan said, a mechanical voice like an artificial intelligence.
"I expected it a long time ago, didn't I?"
Lin Jiang looked at him calmly and said, many things are not said, but it does not mean that they are unknown, Lin Jiang had expected it a long time ago.
