For humans on Earth, it's unrealistic to think about taking all of them to a new star system or space to live, since they simply can't take billions of people with them.
Although after several years of disasters, only one in ten people on Earth survives, the total number of survivors on Earth must be over a hundred million. Taking such a large number of people into space is simply out of the question.
While manned spacecraft have been very successful, it is not feasible to transport so many people to live in outer space with current technology, especially after so many disasters on Earth and the depletion of many resources.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but put down what he was holding and look out the window. The road was filled with all sorts of workers.
They were covered in grease, but their faces held a hint of longing for survival.
Lu Yuan watched for a while, then left the office and started walking towards his designated location.
When they arrived in the East District, they unexpectedly met Zhou Tong, who was leading several team members and was busy relocating a factory.
Upon seeing Lu Yuan arrive, Zhou Tong rubbed his aching back and walked over with a smile.
What brings you here?
"Oh, I need to take some equipment with me today, so I came to move some things. By the way, how much do you have left in the East District?"
"This is the only piece I have left!"
Zhou Tong casually pointed to the spacious area behind him and said, "Don't underestimate this area. I calculated that we've only moved about one-fifth of it, and this is already our maximum workload!"
"Okay, you've worked hard. You guys go ahead and get busy!"
Zhou Tong nodded and continued working with the others. Suddenly, one of the team members shouted, "Brother Zhou, come and take a look! I found something under this tile!"
Upon hearing his teammates' voices, Zhou Tong immediately stood up, glanced in the direction, and then ran over quickly.
"What did you find?"
The team member shook his head, then took out a briefcase from his hand and handed it over.
Zhou Tong took the combination lock box, looked it over from head to toe, and then asked the people around him, "Do we have anyone here who can crack this combination lock box? What's inside? If we open the lock directly, will we destroy what's inside?"
One of the team members standing next to Zhou Tong took the box, looked it over, and then shook his head helplessly: "Brother Zhou, I'm afraid we can't force this box open. I feel that the documents inside are very important. If we force it open, the documents inside will probably be destroyed!"
Zhou Tong felt a pang of frustration, then pointed to the box and said, "You guys keep going. I'll take the box to Lu Yuan first; he's still in this area!"
Zhou Tong then jogged along and, sure enough, found Lu Yuan in a certain place.
Lu Yuan was somewhat surprised to see Zhou Tong running over.
"What's wrong, Lao Zhou? Have you made another new discovery?"
The reason for saying there was another new discovery is that Lu Yuan received reports of new discoveries from his subordinates every day during this period. However, upon arriving at the site, he found that these things were nothing special; they were just equipment that could be used in aerospace.
It's not that the item is particularly rare, but rather that people haven't seen it before. Furthermore, after its discovery, no information about this abandoned industrial area was found.
Zhou Tong nodded and handed over the combination lock box: "One of my team members found it under the tiles. I feel there must be some important information inside. Why don't you take it into the dimensional space and let Qiao Ke see if he can crack the box!"
Lu Yuan took the box with some surprise, then looked it over from head to toe. He discovered that the box not only had a physical combination lock, but also some fingerprint and infrared sensors.
"This box looks so high-end! I wonder what secrets it might hold?"
"Yes, we didn't dare to touch anything. I was thinking of just kicking the box open, but I was worried that if there were any electronic components inside, I might break them if I kicked it!"
"Alright, I'll take it back now and let Jock take a look, see if he can find any clues!"
So Lu Yuan casually sent back all the things he was going to take to the dimensional space, and then entered the dimensional space with the briefcase.
Jock was busy producing a new type of electronic device in his office when he heard footsteps outside and couldn't help but look up.
"Brother Lu, you're here!"
Lu Yuan nodded slightly, then placed the briefcase he was holding on the table: "It was found in that abandoned industrial area. See if you can open it!"
Jock nodded slightly, then looked the box up and down before a smile appeared on his lips: "Haha, such a sophisticated design is just for show. The box is high-end, but it's useless to me. Wait for me for half an hour!"
Then Jock carried the box to another room next to his, where he found some tools in a drawer and began to unlock the combination lock.
Lu Yuan stood not far away, quietly watching the other person work. After a few minutes, a click sound suddenly came from the box.
