Chapter 138 Breeding Base (Thanks to 'your father smiled and said' for rewarding the leader 2)
From the outside, this place looks like a huge factory, with the inside and outside completely isolated.
If tourists want to visit, they have to spend another 200 yuan to buy tickets.
Bai Zhenzhen thought to herself, "Damn it... Could it be that Xiong Wenwu wanted to boost sales performance, so he specially booked the meeting place here?"
Although they were unhappy, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen still spent 400 yuan, bought two tickets and entered the breeding base.
Once you enter it, the feeling of being completely clear and cleansing your body with every breath you just had in the reserve disappears.
Instead, there were gusts of dry, bitter air.
Zhang Yu was surprised and asked, "Isn't the air in the breeding base connected to the reserve? Is this the air we normally breathe?"
Bai Zhenzhen sighed inwardly: "The monsters in this reserve can't even breathe a few breaths of the air that their ancestors have breathed for generations."
At this moment, a generous voice sounded: "Long time no see, Zhang Yu, Bai Zhenzhen."
Zhang Yu turned his head and saw a tall figure waiting for them. It was Xiong Wenwu from Hongta High School.
Seeing the two people looking over, Xiong Wenwu said, "Let's talk while we visit. We can't waste the ticket money."
Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen followed each other and arrived at the first stop of the breeding base - the incubation room.
On both sides of the corridor, there were rows of transparent rooms filled with various types of monsters. The only thing in common was that they were hatching things that looked like dragon eggs under their bodies.
However, half of the rooms seemed to be empty and not in use.
"So this is a breeding base for monsters."
Bai Zhenzhen looked at the various monsters in the incubator as if she were looking at a zoo, and suddenly pointed at a bear and said, "Haha, Xiong Wenwu, do you think that bear looks like you before you were transformed?"
Xiong Wenwu looked at incubator No. 33, where a huge demon bear was crawling on the ground, snoring while sleeping.
Xiong Wenwu said calmly: "That's my mother."
"Ah?" Bai Zhenzhen was confused.
Xiong Wenwu looked at the two and said, "The breeding base will look for suitable mothers among the monsters, and then sow the blood of true dragons to create offspring with dragon blood."
"I heard that they used incubators directly before, but later the company felt that the price of the monster mother was cheaper, and the production of the breeding base did not need to be too high, so they finally found a real mother for us."
"After all, there are already many monsters in the reserve, so it's very convenient to catch them."
Xiong Wenwu looked at the monster in the incubator and said calmly, "Although she is my mother, she is just a monster with little wisdom. She doesn't recognize me now."
Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu, who had never encountered such a conversation before, were stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say.
In silence, the three of them came to the freshman area again.
Inside each incubator are young monsters of various appearances.
Some were sleeping soundly, some were looking outside with their eyes wide open, and some had a needle inserted in their backs and started screaming.
Xiong Wenwu said calmly: "The young here will continue to receive injections of various drugs, and those that cannot withstand the effects of the drugs will be eliminated..."
Then came the study room, where young demons were seen looking at the screen attentively. A program was playing on the screen: the early childhood version of Hongta Animal Husbandry’s on-the-job training, which talked about how to take care of the company like one’s own home.
Bai Zhenzhen was shocked and said, "It's actually the early childhood education version of on-the-job training?"
Zhang Yu nodded slightly, thinking that Hongta Animal Husbandry was going too far.
But Bai Zhenzhen continued, "They have a job since birth? There must be many people out there who envy this treatment, right?"
Xiong Wenwu said with some pride: "The company will provide a job for every demon born in the breeding base. They will receive on-the-job training from a young age and be instilled with the company spirit."
"Because of this, every year there are mortals who come to protest and want to send their children to the breeding base to study with us."
After walking a few steps forward, I saw a group of young demons doing aerobics and shouting slogans: Let's move forward hand in hand and create a better future together. The light of fatherly love will illuminate you and me.
In front of them, there was a portrait of a black dragon, which seemed to be the director of Hongta High School.
As we go along this path, we can see that the monsters that appear are getting older and older. From on-the-job training to general education, and after repeated examinations and diversions, more and more monsters are assigned to work to repay their breeding debts, and the number of monsters who stay to continue studying is also decreasing.
Xiong Wenwu continued, "Originally, a large number of demon descendants are produced here every year. They can either study hard and get into college, and then become promising talents for Hongta Animal Husbandry."
"Either you can go directly to work in the company, work diligently, and become the cornerstone of Hongta Animal Husbandry."
"But since the introduction of Oasis Group's new technology, the company has decided to change its business direction. A large number of ranches and factories have been acquired by Oasis Group. I'm afraid the breeding base here will also be eliminated."
Xiong Wenwu knew that for the demons who had been living and working here, leaving Hongta... was more terrifying than going to work in a factory.
However, as a mere high school freshman, he could not change anything. The only thing he could do was to find ways to take care of the people he cared about.
After walking and stopping along the way, the three of them arrived at the finished product room.
In the rooms on both sides of the corridor, seventeen-year-old demons were studying at their desks.
They have electric shock collars around their necks to keep them awake and relieve fatigue.
The chains on the feet are connected to the desk, representing the determination to learn wherever one goes.
The feeder in front of the body has an automatic feeding function, which can automatically feed them after they complete a task as required.
Xiong Wenwu looked at this scene, a trace of nostalgia flashed across his face, and he said: "This is to study the three-year general education courses in high school and prepare for the junior high school graduation examination of the breeding base."
"After all, whether they can enter high school next year will determine whether they will study or work in the future, so everyone studies very seriously."
Zhang Yu thought to himself... Damn, if I don't study, I will starve to death, right?
Recalling what he had seen and heard after entering the reserve, Zhang Yu could not help but sigh inwardly: "This company is really... they squeeze the water out of people and then trample them with their shoes."
In the second half, Xiong Wenwu talked about the spiritual vein.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"In the incubator of the breeding base, in order to ensure the growth of the young and the true dragon bloodline, a spiritual vein pipeline was introduced, which has air from the spiritual vein and a high concentration of spiritual energy."
"But this condition is only available in the incubator, so someone will need to arrange for you to sneak in."
Bai Zhenzhen asked curiously: "Won't they be discovered?"
Xiong Wenwu, who was standing by, shook his head. "Most of the breeding base is already automated, and there is only one person in charge. As long as this person in charge agrees, no one will notice if we use some spiritual veins."
Zhang Yu pointed to the meter on his body and asked, "What should I do with this?"
Xiong Wenwu said: "The breeding base is on the edge of the reserve. There is a channel for transporting materials to the outside. I have opened up the joints and confirmed that there are no problems. Next time I will take you directly through that channel."
Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen then noticed that Xiong Wenwu really didn't seem to have any meter on him.
Xiong Wenwu reminded again: "But if you come in through that passage, you can only stay in the breeding base at most. Don't go out. There are too many monitoring methods in the reserve, and you will definitely be discovered."
Zhang Yu asked again: "What's the price?"
Xiong Wenwu said: "8,000 per hour."
Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen looked at each other and felt that the price was not expensive.
After all, according to the prices in the protected area outside, given their physiques, just exhaling per hour without breathing would cost several thousand yuan, not to mention the air and rich spiritual energy that comes from the spiritual veins.
Bai Zhenzhen asked again: "Why did you choose to trade with us?"
"I asked around, you two are very poor, right?" Xiong Wenwu smiled, "I don't trust people who are too rich. And you two are the only two who are so poor yet still want to steal the spirit veins and come to me to ask about it... I guess I have no choice."
Xiong Wenwu continued, "The only problem left is that the only employee of this breeding base may not agree to this deal."
"She is the person I will take you to see later."
"So I need you to cooperate with me and talk to her together."
"You listen to my arrangements..."
When Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen heard the arrangements mentioned by Xiong Wenwu, they showed strange looks on their faces.
Coming to the final souvenir sales area, in addition to the induction training manuals, special test papers of the breeding base, the same electric shock collars, and various monster dolls, Zhang Yu's eyes also swept over various animal bones, animal blood, and monster meat.
Although monsters have always been regarded as animals and are completely different from monster descendants, Zhang Yu still felt uncomfortable seeing this thing here.
Arriving at the souvenir counter, Xiong Wenwu greeted with a smile: "Sister, I'm here to see you."
It was the first time that Zhang Yu saw Xiong Wenwu's savage face smiling so happily.
But looking at the little panda behind the counter, Zhang Yu still showed a puzzled look on his face. However, when he thought about the fact that the monsters in Hongta High School always treated each other as brothers and sisters, it didn't seem so strange.
Xiong Wenwu said to Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen: "This is my sister An An. If she hadn't helped me learn to read when I was a child, I might have been eliminated long ago."
"She has some opportunities to get spiritual veins here, I can introduce them to you."
But the red panda behind the counter didn't seem to agree with what Xiong Wenwu said.
She raised her hands and said angrily, "Xiong Wenwu! What are you doing? I said I won't sell out the interests of the company!"
Hearing this, Xiong Wenwu sighed in his heart and a look of helplessness flashed across his face.
