"Let's give everyone 10,000," Li Lechen decided.
“But…” the smart assistant hesitated. “Every year, some people are expelled to the contaminated area. This year’s number is the lowest in history. If it’s any lower, there will be no one left in the contaminated area.”
Li Lechen had never understood this. What did it matter whether there were people or not in the contaminated area? It was just because they didn't have the money to pay the cabin rental. Logically, it should be fine once they had the money.
"If there are no people in the contaminated area, the corresponding live streaming rooms cannot operate, and the losses here may be even greater."
Perhaps it's because it's been following Li Lechen for a while, but the intelligent assistant's rapid automatic learning ability has enabled it to analyze things from a holistic perspective.
It continued, "Furthermore, even if you give each of those 30,000 people 10,000 to help them pay their cabin rates, there will still be people with relatively few assets. The 'government' departments will still deport a certain number of people to the contaminated area according to certain standards. Therefore, you cannot guarantee that no one will be deported to the contaminated area by distributing money."
Li Lechen couldn't refute the intelligent assistant's well-reasoned analysis.
Perhaps saving these 30,000 people means another 30,000 will be expelled.
"There's one thing I just can't understand: why do people have to be driven to the contaminated area?"
"This is a requirement of the population plan. Resources are limited, and the population must always be kept in balance. Limited resources should be supplied to those who can contribute to the future development of the earth and humanity. Those who cannot even solve their own basic needs are driven to polluted areas for everyone to enjoy, which is still considered to be making the most of their remaining energy."
What the hell is this about making the most of one's remaining energy?
This was the first time Li Lechen had heard of such brainwashing claims.
Since giving away money doesn't really make much sense, let's follow the example of the wealthy and celebrate with some discounted items.
"Then today, all types of water will be sold for one Sunshine Coin per bottle, as a way to celebrate my ranking as the 4th on the Sunshine Rich List."
Li Lechen thought to himself that today could actually be limited, for example, ten bottles per person. Even if people all over the world came to buy, it would only be 500 million bottles. Wouldn't that be enough water from the Three Gorges Reservoir?
However, the smart assistant delivered a disheartening message: "While you were asleep last night, the Global Resources Coordination Committee made a decision regarding you, stipulating that you can only sell a limited quantity of 50 million bottles of Class I water per day to residents of Security Zone B and below."
When the smart assistant received this message, it was genuinely upset for its owner.
Yesterday, its owner sold hundreds of millions of bottles of this Class I water, instantly boosting its assets to 87 billion. If this trend continues, its owner will soon become the world's richest person, and it will become the world's richest person's smart assistant, undoubtedly holding a prominent position in the world of smart assistants.
Li Lechen found it strange: "Why are you suddenly issuing this ban on me? Did I violate any rules?"
"No, it should be that someone applied to the Resource Coordination Committee for mediation, and this is the result of the mediation."
It seems this outcome is not in our favor.
Also, doesn't mediation require both parties to sit down and talk together? Why is it that the middleman has the final say?
It seems this "Resource Coordination Committee" is a bit domineering.
However, this did not prevent Li Lechen from finding a way to circumvent the policies: "What was the original wording of that order again?"
"To ensure the healthy and stable development of the water resources sales market, it is hereby stipulated that Li Lechen's Class I water can only be sold to residents in Safety Zone B and below, and the daily sales volume shall not exceed 50 million bottles."
The smart assistant gave a perfectly correct answer.
This is the original text, and it's exactly the same as the summary given by the smart assistant before.
Sure enough, it's possible to skirt the rules.
"Then let's sell Class II water."
"......"
After finishing his tasks for the day, Li Lechen had to go to class. You see, he hadn't attended class properly for half a month. If he were a true academic genius, it wouldn't be so bad, but in reality, he was a fake one.
Upon entering the classroom, I found that everyone was not engrossed in doing problems or listening attentively as usual, but instead staring at the projector on the blackboard.
What are you looking at so intently?
Puzzled, Li Lechen also looked at the projection.
I almost shouted out loud when I saw it.
Isn't that my own colorimeter? Oh no, it's the colorimeter I bought from the online store!
What's going on?
When the homeroom teacher, Zheng Fangxing, saw that Li Lechen was still standing at the door, he quickly urged him in a low voice, "Go to your seat, don't just stand there!"
Li Lechen glanced over and noticed that the seat next to Zhou Mi was empty, so he went over to her.
Since the two are siblings, even if they are male and female, sitting together openly to discuss their studies does not violate student rules.
Zhou Mi rolled her eyes when Li Lechen suddenly sat down next to her.
The projector is showing a live broadcast of the National High-Tech Symposium, and at this moment, the director of Lingcheng's Science and Technology Bureau is showcasing his latest invention.
"I haven't named it yet, but for now we can call it an intelligent separator," Jin Jingcheng explained. "Based on the different refractive indices of different colors of light, this machine can distinguish beads of mixed colors."
As he spoke, Jin Jingcheng began to demonstrate on the spot.
Just like the after-sales service introduction in the mall, seven different colored beads were placed on seven sample tables, and then a mixture of seven colored beads was poured in from the entrance. Soon, the beads were distinguished by color.
A round of enthusiastic applause erupted from the audience.
Jin Jingcheng humbly said, "The principle is very simple, and I believe many people can do it. However, my machine is also equipped with an ultra-miniature air source device, so it does not need batteries or charging and can be used continuously."
Applause erupted again from the audience, this time even more enthusiastic.
Jin Jingcheng bowed deeply, and then the camera gave his invention a close-up.
"That thing..."
Surprised, Li Lechen couldn't help but speak up.
Zhou Mi rolled her eyes again.
When Zhou Mi first saw the "intelligent separator" that Jin Jingcheng took out, it looked very familiar.
Clearly, this thing was given to Gu Xiaoman's grandmother by Li Lechen to distinguish her beads that were mixed together.
It seems, perhaps, maybe, two more were given?
That's all Zhou Mi knows.
In fact, Li Lechen had previously given Gu Xiaoman a "grandma" machine, which was bought by Jin Jingcheng for 20,000 yuan and is now being displayed on stage.
Zhou Mi was confused.
How prestigious is the National High-Tech Symposium? Let's put it this way: every invention showcased there is absolutely a national first and a world leader. Everyone attending is a top figure in the industry. Someone like Jin Jingcheng, merely a local science and technology bureau director, is probably at the lowest level.
However, since he aspires to a career in government, it's not appropriate to force him to become a scholar.
