Chapter 392 Spreading the News
There are many people who want to use nanochips to control the survivors, but there are also many people who still have consciences and try to resist the nanochips.
Because a meteorite shower was about to occur, there were basically no private convoys in each city except for vehicles transporting supplies, so Xia Xiaoman and his team had no idea about the situation in other cities.
But judging from the situation in the neighboring Yunhai City, it would be extremely difficult to make a big deal about the nano-chip issue.
Chen Peiqiong learned about the nanochip plan from Xia Xiaoman and immediately went to Uncle Fei for help. The next day, the capital's nanochip plan spread in Yunhai City.
Apparently, the top leaders of Yunhai City were afraid that the capital would cause them trouble, and when they learned that someone was spreading rumors about the nanochip plan, they immediately sent people to investigate who was spreading the rumors.
The top leaders of Yunhai City also put the blame on the Fucheng Tianfa Organization, saying that the nanochip was a lie deliberately fabricated by the Tianfa Organization in order to disrupt the official authorities.
The nano-chip project was only circulated in Yunhai City for one day before there was no further news. Uncle Fei almost got involved.
"Yunhai City is under martial law now. Uncle Fei said that none of his men dare to go out, let alone spread the news. Xiaoman, what should we do? If this continues, when the meteor shower comes, it will be too late."
Chen Peiqiong was a little impatient. Now that the meteor shower had not yet appeared, everyone still had time to fight against the authorities. But when the meteor shower appeared, even if the survivors knew that the nanochips would be detonated, in order to avoid being killed by the meteor shower, they would choose to inject the nanochips and enter the underground city.
Xia Xiaoman thought for a long time with a gloomy face, "Wait a little longer and see what happens in the floating city tomorrow."
If Fucheng used violence to suppress the rumors about the nanochips like other cities did, then she would have to follow the example of the founder of Tianfa and confront the authorities.
…
That night, Li Yu'e, Lingxu and all the brothers and sisters secretly threw broken tiles with words on them on the street. If they came across a house with people living in it, they would also throw tiles at the doors and windows of the other party's yard.
The next morning, most people in the floating city knew that they had seen the words on the tiles.
At first they didn't quite understand the meaning of those two sentences until they heard a rumor that the capital had developed a nanochip. After the chip was injected into the body, the monitor could monitor the physical condition of the survivors injected with the chip at any time.
When the survivors heard that the chip could locate and monitor the body, they expressed dissatisfaction. Who doesn't have some health problems nowadays? If they are monitored at any time like this, do they still have privacy?
When the survivors learned that the chip could be remotely detonated and emit electricity, they panicked. How could this be a chip? This was clearly a time bomb!
In order to verify whether the rumor was true, some people with short tempers and explosive tempers immediately ran to the official office and asked the official to give an explanation. If the nano chip was a rumor, the official was asked to issue a notice to clarify it immediately, so that they would not be worried.
If the nanochip is real, the authorities must send someone to explain clearly why they developed this time bomb and installed it on them?
Xia Xiaoman stood in the crowd, watching the survivors questioning the office staff angrily and excitedly, banging their heads on the table and clamoring for the mayor to intervene.
On the other side, the official headquarters, the mayor's office.
Lu Lanshan paced back and forth in the office. Yu Jie was dazzled by his dazzling eyes and said, "Stop walking around here, sit down and have some tea. This is the Da Hong Pao I brought from the capital. There is only this small bag. It will be gone after you finish it."
Lu Lanshan sat down in front of Yu Jie, picked up the teacup and drank it all.
Yu Jie looked at the tea in his hand with some distress, "You drank the best Da Hong Pao as if it were plain water. You are not meant to drink tea."
Lu Lanshan put down the teacup heavily, "Yes, I am not born to drink tea, I am born to worry! What a mess it is outside, you still have the mind to drink tea here, aren't you afraid that the higher-ups will know, accuse you of inaction, and get you fired?"
Seeing Yu Jie still pouring tea slowly, Lu Lanshan grabbed the teapot and poured it into his mouth, almost scalding his tongue.
Seeing that Lv Lanshan had vomited most of her Da Hong Pao, Yu Jie grabbed the teapot back distressedly, "The floating city is so far away from the capital. By the time the news reaches the capital, we may have already moved to the underground city. What is there to be afraid of?"
Lu Lanshan moved his tongue, which was numbed by the heat, and said unhappily, "Don't forget, there are Zhou Zejun's lackeys in Fucheng. When you were in the capital, Zhou Zejun wanted to kill you. If he knew that you ignored this matter, do you think you would still have a chance to survive?"
Yu Jie glanced at him and said, "Who said I don't care?"
Lu Lanshan said, "Then why don't you order people to arrest those who spread the rumors!"
"What's the hurry?" Yu Jie took a sip of tea, stood up and said, "Let's go, accompany me to Yunhai City."
"What are you going to Yunhai City for?" Lu Lanshan looked confused.
"Go seek advice from the mayor of Yunhai City and ask him how he deals with those who spread rumors." Yu Jie said as she walked out.
Lu Lanshan quickly followed and said, "What's there to ask? Just give the order to arrest the rumor spreader."
After taking two steps, he suddenly realized something was wrong and ran to Yu Jie to stop her. "Yu Jie, are you going to drag Yunhai City into this and fight against the nanochip project together?"
Yu Jie didn't answer and walked around him.
Lu Lanshan had seen through Yu Jie's attitude and grasped her arm and said, "Yu Jie, are you crazy? Isn't the lesson Zhou Zejun taught you enough? If he knew..."
"If he finds out, the worst that can happen is death!" Yu Jie pulled back her arm. "Lanshan, I just want to ask you one question. If it were you, would you be willing to be injected with a nanochip?"
Lu Lanshan was stunned for a moment, his eyes evasive, "The capital said that we don't need to inject the chip..."
"Let me ask you, if it were you, would you be willing to put a time bomb in your body? Answer me!" Yu Jie looked at Lu Lanshan.
Lu Lanshan looked at her for a few seconds and lowered his head in silence.
Yu Jie chuckled, "Look, you yourself are not willing, so why do you ask the masses to inject chips?"
"Lanshan, I remember you said before that you were a kid from the mountains, and you went through a lot of hardships to get to this position. You know the hardships of the lower classes, so you want to contribute more to society in your lifetime. But look at what you have become now? Do you still remember your original intention when you came here?"
Yu Jie sighed and continued, "I know you are afraid that I will be brought down, and I know you are afraid that people in the capital will secretly kill you. I don't blame you, but I hope you won't stop me, okay?"
Lu Lanshan looked ashamed and quietly moved aside to let Yu Jie leave.
