Apocalyptic Capsule System

Chapter 1262 The Town's Past

"Okay, as long as you know what's in your mind."

Seeing that the girl had already made up her mind, Lin Cheng nodded, and did not intend to persuade her anymore. Everyone has their own ideas. For a person like him who has not been accompanied by his parents since childhood, the word "parents" is very far away from him. Far, although he also felt family love from Aunt Qin, it was not enough to make him lose his mind and make some unimaginable decisions.

But for Daisy, who was raised as the apple of her eye by her parents since she was a child, her parents are everything to her. Although she has matured a lot in the last year of experience, to her, her parents are still the one in her heart. It is not surprising that such a decision will be made for such a difficult hurdle.

Besides, although this girl has decided to stay in the town and use her way to accompany her parents, she has not lost her mind because of this. Lin Cheng thinks that she is a good partner, so he keeps giving her another chance, and she also always remembers Lin Cheng and the others. He was kind to himself, so even though he missed his parents very much, he still decided to help Lin Cheng finish the matter here first.

Lit a cigarette again, Lin Cheng leaned back slightly, and after lying on the sofa in a more comfortable position, he asked Daisy: "I remember talking to Amanda about this place when I was in the underground base. The town, she told me that it was taken over by the government army a long time ago, do you know about this?"

"of course I know."

Nodding her head, Daisy frowned and recalled carefully before replying: "About a year... no, more than a year before the end of the world, the town of Novi was already sent by the government. It was completely taken over! The explanation given by the government at the time was that a secret that could shock the whole world was discovered near the town. Of course, this so-called secret was exposed not long after, and it was the world-famous "Doomsday sinkhole" This "end of the world tiankeng" was first discovered by the residents of Novi town. It didn't attract much attention when it was first reported. After more than a year, somehow this place The tiankeng was suddenly taken seriously, and the government even sent troops to block the news. In the end, the news spread like wildfire, so for safety reasons, the government could only confine the area around the tiankeng and the area within the small town of Novi It is all blocked, and anyone who enters or exits needs to be strictly checked! In fact, the blockade was not very strong at the beginning, and some people with connections could easily sneak into the town, and then searched all the way after finding out the location of the tiankeng. After passing by, it seems that there were a few accidents in the Tiankeng, and the blockade was suddenly strengthened, and it was difficult for ordinary people to sneak into the town, let alone get close to the Tiankeng."

"kindness……"

Listening to Daisy's detailed explanation, Lin Cheng kept nodding. Daisy is indeed a local here. She talked about these things in far more detail than the old man and Amanda, but there was one thing he didn't understand, so Asked: "Since this town was taken over by the government army more than a year before the end of the world, how did the residents of the town arrange it?"

Hearing Lin Cheng's question, Daisy shrugged her shoulders and said, "How else can we arrange it? It will be what it was before. In fact, the residents of the town were not used to it at the beginning. More than 90% of the residents are Nenets, and the Nenets have been famous nomads since ancient times. At the peak, the length of nomadic trips every year was almost the longest in the world. In ancient times, they even had a fixed residence. None. Although there is a permanent residence in the small town of Novi, the blood yearning for freedom in the body has never coagulated. How can I get used to living under the eyes of a group of well-trained soldiers every day? But with the time spent with these soldiers As time went on, the residents found that apart from the military uniforms on their bodies, most of these soldiers treated us very friendly. Even after the troops were stationed, the crime rate in the town, which was not high at all, dropped to zero! In addition to the fact that the town needs to be checked by soldiers, the daily life of the townspeople is almost completely unaffected by the soldiers.

On the contrary, due to the increase in the daily needs of scientists from many countries who come here to conduct research, the income of residents who originally did not have much extra income other than hunting has also risen accordingly. The income can top the total income of the usual year or even two years! After a long time, most of the townspeople have gotten used to the existence of these soldiers and scientists, and they are always worried that they will leave suddenly one day..."

"... Well, since ancient times, money has always moved people's hearts!"

Hearing this, Lin Cheng didn't know what to say. In fact, it was reasonable to think about it carefully. Although Novi town is remote, the residents here are not old-fashioned barbarians, just like Daisy's father, As a Nenets native born and raised in the small town of Novi, didn’t he still go abroad to study like most young people?

Although the arrival of the army and scientists from all over the world has brought some inconvenience to the residents of Novi town, it also brings business opportunities everywhere. How about trying to drive people away (the key is not driving away), and then continue to work hard to hunt wild animals in the cold snowfield to survive?

Smiling, Lin Cheng flicked off the ashes. As the conversation between the two deepened, a cigarette of his was almost burned out after taking a few puffs. After inhaling the last cigarette into his lungs, Lin Cheng continued to ask "What about your father? It's understandable for other residents to stay here in order to earn more money, but your father is very rich, why would he want to stay in this small town where travel is inconvenient?"

"It's very simple. On the first day the army was stationed, some local officials brought the officers to visit my father in person..."

Lin Cheng had a lot of questions, but Daisy didn't have any impatience. She knew that the other party would definitely ask her a lot of questions after arriving here, and with her observation of Lin Cheng in the past few days, she knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime situation. If you are serious, you will not let go of the "obsessive-compulsive disorder" of the slightest detail. For patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder, instead of procrastinating and causing conflicts, it is better to follow the other party's topic and honestly tell all you know, "according to According to those officials, our family only needs to continue living in the town according to the previous rhythm, and we will never feel any changes, and we will not be questioned by the soldiers in the town, including my father's mine outside the town. The market will not be affected in any way! A simple summary is that what happens in the town will not affect our family, and our family should not affect the local stable income generation..."
