Chapter 111 Healing the World
Ten days passed in a flash, and the joint meeting of thirteen states was about to be officially held.
The meeting venue was chosen to be Yaojing Lingdu, which is a quasi-super first-tier city. Together with Lanjing Wudu, it is the only two cities that have the opportunity to become a super first-tier city.
As early as three days ago, the notice from the imperial headquarters had been sent to the Changshan County Government Office. Since that day, Qin Luoshuang almost stayed up all day and all night, immersed in work. On the day of departure, Qin Luoshuang gave Lin Wen a black leather suitcase filled with various materials and evidence that she had sorted out and cut out over the past few days.
Originally, Qin Luoshuang was planning to go with Lin Wen, but because there were still two extremely important pieces of evidence that had not been clarified and the key parts were missing, she stayed.
The two parties agreed to keep in touch at any time. For this purpose, Qin Luoshuang even got him a military satellite phone. The county magistrate himself was equipped with a dedicated mobile phone, but since there was no signal in Changshan County, it was basically useless, and its confidentiality was far lower than that of a satellite phone.
Lin Wen did not bring anyone else with him. Changshan County was in a critical period of accelerated development, and every person was important. Besides, no one knew what would happen at this meeting, so it was best not to bring anyone with him, so as to avoid any worries and being unable to perform.
Before leaving, he made a final inspection. Everything was going well in the county, reconstruction work was progressing steadily, land reclamation work in Shangxi Town was in good order, villages and towns in various regions were operating normally, there were no problems with officials of all ranks, and funds were sufficient, and it would take some time before they were exhausted.
And he himself has a full spirit.
All storable spells are fully stocked.
[Seven Apertures Heart] Remaining time: 8 hours.
【Paper Moon Hanging in the Sky】Time remaining: 2 hours.
【Observe the Qi and People】Remaining time: 4 hours.
[Thousand Miles Voice Transmission] Remaining time: 15 hours and 31 minutes.
Good karma: 3512 points.
Everything is ready.
Lin Wen embarked on a journey to Lingzhou alone.
Lingzhou is located to the east of Dongqinzhou, about 800 kilometers away. This state is not big and its population is far smaller than that of Dongqinzhou, but it is very developed. It is known as the first state in the eastern part of the empire. There is also a saying that "You don't know the world until you go to Lingzhou."
Yaojing Lingdu is its capital, and its prosperity far exceeds that of Danyangdu, the capital of Dongqinzhou. As soon as he entered the city, Lin Wen had the illusion for the first time that he had returned to his original world.
Lin Wen came a day in advance and arrived in the evening. The sun had just set, night had just fallen, and the city lights had just been lit.
This city, known as the empire's shining crown jewel, has finally blossomed with its charm.
The special car followed the flow into the city. At a glance, the lights of thousands of houses were pouring down like the Milky Way, the cars were like flowing lights and the buildings were full of colors, the stars were like rain, the people were like weaving, and the sky was full of fireworks and silver flowers.
Paradise on earth.
Even Lin Wen, who had seen the prosperity of another world, was stunned for a moment.
After entering the city, traffic began to slow down and the ten-lane road in both directions began to be congested.
Lin Wen looked out the window and saw a large group of non-mainstream guys with shiny clothes walking with devilish steps on the street. He also saw rich people who wanted to have the word "awesome" plastered all over their bodies getting out of super luxury cars and walking into nightclubs with signs flashing wildly in a hundred colors.
I saw homeless people burning garbage to keep warm in dark corners, two groups of gang members facing each other with machetes and sticks in a remote alley, and security guards in police uniforms beating a middle-aged man who looked like an office worker with batons outside a low rental house.
When the special car arrived at a giant roundabout, it was finally completely stuck in traffic.
Lin Wen unfortunately recalled his experience of being stuck in traffic for four hours at the Optics Valley Death Roundabout. He decisively got off the car and told the driver to find a place to park and pick him up the next morning. He then went alone to the Captain Keku Hotel designated by the officials for his stay.
Lin Wen crossed the stuck traffic and walked onto the nearby pedestrian street. He had a good sense of direction and knew where the hotel was just by looking at the map.
Along the way, Lin Wen saw many wonders of the city, including the 381-meter-high Empire State Building adorned with brilliant lights, Times Square covered with neon lights and huge advertising screens, Sixth Avenue full of magnificent shop windows, the prosperous Lingdu Harbor and the spectacular Diagonal Bridge, as well as the statue of the goddess of the empire holding a sword, holding a grenade, carrying a sniper rifle, and dragging a cannon.
When he deviated from the main route and walked into the corner alleys, he saw low slums hidden in the shadows of high-rise buildings, corpses piled up in the garbage dump because of the epidemic and there was no time to burn them, scavengers who rummaged through the garbage and corpses regardless of the danger of disease, as well as wandering beggars, thieves, pickpockets, robbers, illegal vendors, smugglers and drug dealers who sold all kinds of contraband.
There are no completely black people among them. Most of them are half black or partially black. Come to think of it, people who are completely black will not walk on the street.
What a pity.
Lin Wen thought.
Otherwise, maybe you can make some extra money.
Lin Wen activated the [Spirit Cat's Swiftness]. His spirit was full anyway, so it would be a waste if he didn't activate it. He beat off many thugs who blocked his way along the way, passed through a stinking garbage dump, climbed over two security guards' outposts, ignored the blaring alarms behind him, and returned to the prosperous world.
He walked straight forward, ignoring all obstructions and obstacles. As long as he was heading in the right direction, he would not get lost.
If you take too many detours, you will feel dizzy.
Moreover, our junior high school teachers taught us that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line.
As he approached the Captain Keku Hotel, Lin Wen saw a worker being kicked out of a nearby building. With a crash, a whole box of junk was thrown at him, accompanied by a scornful voice: "Get out! You're just a piece of trash, a defective product that needs to be replaced."
Without saying a word, he stood up silently, picked up the debris and put it back into the box, and limped away into the distance.
But Lin Wen saw that his energy was clearly weakening.
"Hello."
Lin Wen called out to him.
The man turned his head. He was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old and looked like an ordinary person with no special features. There were no tears in his eyes and his expression was calm, as if nothing would happen.
But Lin Wen knew that he was going to commit suicide.
"What's your name?"
The man was silent for a moment: "Is there something wrong?" His voice was soft and calm.
Lin Wen smiled and said, "You are hired. Come and work for me now."
He was silent. Lin Wen looked very young, but the clothes he wore were formal suits that Qin Luoshuang had chosen for him. Although the price had been lowered to 3,000 yuan after Lin Wen's repeated persuasion, he still looked very impressive. The black leather suitcase in his hand was made of rhinoceros leather, which was not only fireproof and waterproof, but also bulletproof.
Maybe it was true, but he said, "Thanks, but I'm leaving."
The Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart said: "The world is so big, don't you want to see it? The world is not worth it, but there are still many people who love you, aren't there?"
Two lines of clear tears flowed from his eyes without warning. He turned around immediately. Lin Wen handed him a tissue from behind and also handed him the suitcase in his hand.
"Come on, you're my employee now."
Lin Wen turned around, and when he reached the tenth step, he caught up.
"Thank you, thank you." His voice was still choked, but he already had the energy of a human being. "My name is Qi Mu, I, I..."
Lin Wen nodded: "My name is Lin Wen."
"Lin, Boss Lin, what do we do?"
Lin Wen turned around. Behind him was the brightest night view of the city. The stars in the sky seemed to be reflected behind him. The seven-star Captain Keku Hotel spanned the sky like the Milky Way. The dazzling diamond-like light made his smile look a little blurry.
“Heal the world.”
