“So beautiful!”
Jiang Baiying said with emotion, looking up.
Xia Yu said that this was nothing. If it wasn't inappropriate, it would be fun if some rich man blew up a few asteroids during the New Year. There are plenty of asteroid belts anyway, and this is just a small scene.
After the fireworks show ended, everyone returned downstairs from the rooftop. Everyone who was yawning felt sleepy. They could go back to their rooms and sleep directly, but the maid who was responsible for cleaning up still had to clean up.
It is said that firing a cannon is a pleasure for a moment, but it is a logistical crematorium, especially for the outdated and retro gunpowder weapons. The smoke blackens the launcher, the barrel is full of gunpowder residue, and the maintenance process is much more troublesome than that of a firearm.
While several people were sleeping and the maids were working, the Chinese New Year finally arrived in China. 2022 is the new year, and it is also the most important year for the Xia Group to lead the development of human technology.
Xia Yu was on Kana Island, but the group's work was scheduled from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Several important projects were always in charge and there was no interruption during the New Year period.
The atmospheric processor was announced to the public, while the ion engine and controlled nuclear fusion projects are kept confidential. The progress of the ion engine far exceeds that of controlled nuclear fusion, and it is expected to be officially put into use next year.
As a temporary transition, it doesn't matter if it doesn't have nuclear power. Xia Yu's backup energy systems for so many spacecraft provide multiple options. Just choose the one that is easiest to achieve with Earth technology.
Nothing happened that night. On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xia Yu brought his two future fiancées to visit his parents to wish them a happy new year. Lin Shuqin and Old Xia each gave them a red envelope.
The thickness looks deflated, but each red envelope contains a large cash check.
The face value is 100 million RMB. There is a long string of zeros after the capital numbers, even the ￥ symbol has been replaced. This thin note is extremely heavy.
"Uncle and aunt, this is too much."
Yin Suya and Jiang Baiying looked at each other and quickly declined.
"It's not much, just New Year's money, a little gift from my uncles and aunts, so just take it with confidence."
Lin Shuqin was also generous today. Two hundred million was indeed nothing to their family, not to mention that the two girls would be members of their family in the future, so they couldn't be too stingy.
"Mom, where's my red envelope?"
Xia Yu rubbed his hands and asked with a smile.
"You're already grown up, and you're still asking your parents for red envelopes. Ask your father-in-law and mother-in-law for them when you get married!"
Unconsciously, he had passed the age of asking for lucky money. Xia Yu felt inexplicably sad. What happened to the saying that men stay young until they die?
There was no income, but there were expenses. Xiaoxue was prepared. Now he pulled his senior sister and Xiaojiang to give red envelopes to the maids on the island.
This has become a common practice on the island. As long as you celebrate the New Year on the island, this benefit is definitely indispensable. However, the Eastern and Western maids during the Lunar New Year also begin to look forward to this day every year.
After sending out the red envelopes, it is almost noon, but it is just morning in China.
Like in previous years, Xia Yu received many New Year greetings. He picked out some to reply to personally, and the rest were handled by his descendants.
Yin Suya and Jiang Baiying, who have changed their mobile phones, also discovered this function. Whether it is handling work or personal life, the built-in programs on the mobile phone are very intelligent.
“Can this be promoted?”
Yin Suya asked Xia Yu while holding up her phone.
"Yes, but it's not the right time yet."
The mobile phone market is already a red ocean market. Xia Yu does not want to make money by making mobile phones, but it is still very tempting to launch a system to replace Android. However, the timing of entry is equally important.
"When is the right time?"
"Once we successfully land on Mars, smartphones will also usher in a new round of development. That will be the right time."
From feature phones to smartphones, the development of mobile phones as personal terminals has slowed down. Apart from changes in screens, cameras, and memory, there have been no other groundbreaking developments.
This is indeed sufficient for use on Earth, and the performance even has a lot of redundancy, but it cannot meet the needs of instant interstellar communication.
While opening the era of interstellar colonization, the Xia Group will also lead the transformation of the communications industry. The two traditional giants, iOS and Android, will usher in a reshuffle. Perhaps in the future, Apple will fall from the altar like Nokia and lose its former glory.
This is the era. If you cannot keep up with the trend and embrace change, you will be eliminated by the times. This is true for both companies and individuals.
"Are you already preparing for Huaqing Pool?"
Yin Suya blinked. Her suspicion was not unfounded. The last time Xia Yu took them to visit the hive base, there were no empty laboratories there. All of them were put into use.
"We'll know when the time comes, but do you still want to go to Huaqing Pool?"
Xia Yu asked with a smile.
The Huaqing Pool, a hot spring palace, is their family bathhouse, and the recently completed ancient Roman Baths is his private bathhouse. After all, it would be too extravagant to have both open to the public.
"I kind of miss it. Can we go there again before we go back?"
Yin Suya directly admitted it and said that she still wanted to go there. She said that the place was more magical than Kana Island, but the confidentiality level was too high and there was no signal on her cell phone.
She had asked Xia Yu before, and he said that there was only one line of communication with the outside world on the island, and even the entire island was blocked from satellite vision.
This is amazing. There are many uninhabited islands on the earth, but not many without sovereignty. Many countries have claimed sovereignty over Antarctica. For example, Xia Yu's Kanai Island was occupied by the hairy people in the 18th century and was bought by the system in the 21st century.
You can find Kana Island on Google Maps based on its longitude and latitude, but you can't find Penglai Island, which is a one or two hour flight away.
"Sure, then all five of us will go together and rest for a few days before returning home."
Xia Yu agreed, and this time he would take his parents to see it.
Anyway, there are many pools in the palace, and the two generations will not disturb each other. After arranging this matter, they set off on the third day of the New Year and arrived at Penglai Island on the Little Sherlock.
His parents would definitely say that Xia Yu was spending money recklessly, but he fell in love with this place before he even got off the plane.
Apart from hypoglycemia, who can resist a hot spring? Soaking in it makes you feel refreshed, and after drinking a bottle of ice milk, you will feel like you are in heaven.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner are also very rich. A hot spring egg is so sweet that it can make you feel sweet to the heart.
Parasite?
Regardless of whether there are two units of nanomedical robots in the body of each family member, they are not blind, and their family basically says goodbye to going to the hospital.
The Prometheus's fully automatic medical operating cabin has become a decoration, but fortunately it can still benefit other human beings. This is Xia Biological's next project.
It is said that if you persuade people to study medicine, God will strike you dead. Well, there will be no need for doctors in the future. Let everyone become astronauts or miners. In the era of interstellar colonization, there will be a big gap in these professions.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival, the family of three stayed on the island until the Lantern Festival, then ended their annual leave and prepared to return home.
PS: It will be finished at the end of the month, and a new book will be published in July. I can’t delay it any longer…
