Chapter 21 Employment Security Center (Part II)

The Chambord Islands, Island No. 1, are the world's largest slave trading market and the only place where slaves can be traded, with dozens of job settlements scattered throughout the island.

Behind every professional security center, there is one or several big forces to escort the security center, and the three largest slave exchanges in it are secretly controlled by the world government.

There is a slave auction here every month, and every year there is an even bigger slave auction, and today is the day when the regular auction starts once a month.

Countless bigwigs, aristocrats, and tycoons from all over the world gathered here, in order to avoid indifferent conflicts, after a long period of open and secret fighting, the auction time of each professional stability was staggered, so as to avoid those who came here could not buy their favorite goods.

The reason why the Happiness Occupation Stabilization Center got this name is because every slave who is bought from here will get his own happiness.

Both buyers and sellers will be happy.

This morning is the turn of this Andingsho auction, and the huge hall is full of big people and rich people from all over the world.

On one side of the stage at the very front of the hall stood dozens of different races, who were the slaves who had already completed the transaction in front of them, waiting for the auction to be taken away after the auction was over.

Most of these people are numb, and a few are constantly crying, with a sad face.

"Now the auction is a beautiful boxer from the South China Sea. "In the middle of the stage, a guy in a high hat is holding a microphone and excitedly introducing a female slave who has just been brought in.

This is a beautiful woman with black hair and a pair of pretty faces full of tears.

"Don't underestimate her, she has captured more than 100 million pirates, and buying her is equivalent to bringing a strong bodyguard, and she is still close. ”

As the man spoke, all the men in the hall smiled in the same way.

"Rest assured, after our training, she will never hurt her master, the starting price is one million, and the bidding will start now. ”

"One and a half million. ”

"One and a half million. ”

"Two million. ”

"Five million. ”

After some fierce competition, in the end, this female boxer was bought by a very obscene old man at a high price of five million.

"The auction below is the captain of the Red Tiger Pirates, Red Tiger Kendi, and the world government is offering a reward of 70 million. ”

"The auction below is the giant from Elbaf. ”

"Everyone, everyone, this is the finale of this auction, I believe many people know what it is, yes, that is the mermaid from Fish-Man Island. ”

Under the excited eyes of countless people in the hall, a huge fish tank was pushed onto the stage, and as the huge cloak was lifted, a huge mermaid appeared in front of everyone, this is a huge mermaid with black hair, about three meters in size.

The mermaid has always been the highest among all the slaves, and in previous years, the price of the mermaid was quite stable, but in recent years, the mermaid has always been priceless and rising.

It's all because of Whitebeard's previous declaration that Mermaid Island is under his protection.

Located 10,000 meters below the sea surface, there are two races, fish people and mermaids, don't look at the name is just an exchange of two words, but the difference is a world of difference.

The so-called fish-man refers to a race that has limbs like humans, but has a variety of fish faces, and the price of this fish-man is not high, only a little higher than that of ordinary humans.

But the mermaid is different, the mermaid refers to a race that owns the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish, among which the male is not much to say, and the female is the legendary mermaid.

Although the price of female fishmen is high, it is even higher than that of some races that have Devil Fruits, and the auction price is still higher, and the transaction price of each auction is more than hundreds of millions.

With such a high price, every time the pirates pass by there, there is no one who is not moved, what the pirates are trying to do, isn't it just a fortune, don't say that Mermaid Island is not a member country of the world government, even if it is, if you don't see human beings, isn't it also an auction item.

Before the advent of the era of pirates, the situation of Fish-Man Island was fine, after all, there were not many pirates passing by every time, plus there were 10,000 meters under the sea, and the pirates who had just come to Mermaid Island from the great voyage were extremely disadvantaged by the soldiers of Fish-Man Island in such an environment.

Therefore, these pirates can only secretly take away a few mermaids at most at a time, and few fishmen catch them, because the price is not high, and it is difficult to sell.

However, after the arrival of the pirates, the situation of Fish-Man Island is worrying, although the pirates have to go through several difficulties to reach Fish-Man Island, but even so, the pirates who reach Fish-Man Island are not something that the soldiers of Fish-Man Island can handle.

These pirates even joined forces to prepare to capture the mermaids of Fish-Man Island and destroy Fish-Man Island, and even some extremely ambitious guys were ready to replace the Fish-Man Kingdom and replace it, after all, this is the only way to pass through the new world, even if it collects tolls, it is a lot of wealth.

It wasn't until Whitebeard made a move that the situation on Fish-Man Island turned around.

"I believe everyone now knows how difficult it is to catch a mermaid. ”

For this person's words, everyone in the audience kept nodding their heads, Whitebeard's prestige is like thunder among pirates, from the moment Whitebeard spoke, to now, this is the only mermaid who has appeared.

At the beginning, there were also many people who didn't take Whitebeard's words seriously, thinking that they were just secretly catching a few mermaids, and even if it was the Whitebeard Pirates, it was impossible to really care so much.

After all, Fish-Man Island is so big, and it is impossible for Whitebeard to protect everyone on Mermaid Island.

It's a pity that they were wrong, if it was a few years after Whitebeard spoke, maybe it was right, but not long after Whitebeard spoke, he made a move on the mermaids on Fish-Man Island, which was simply a provocation to the Whitebeard Pirates.

Whitebeard's sixteen teams were all dispatched, whether it was the New World, the Great Voyage, or the Four Seas, all the pirates and bounty hunters who attacked Fish-Man Island were all killed.

For a while, the pirates were in the limelight, and they didn't dare to make a move on Fish-Man Island, at least not now.

The reason why the sky is blue is because sunlight is made up of seven types of light. Among the seven types of light, the shorter wavelengths are cyan, blue, and violet, and the light waves are the most easily scattered by air molecules and dust in the air, so most of the three types of light in the blue, blue, and violet are scattered when sunlight passes through the atmosphere. Purple is barely visible in the atmosphere because purple light is mostly absorbed as it is scattered, and the human eye is not sensitive to purple.

The color of the sky (aka the color of the atmosphere) is actually the composite color around the blue in the spectrum, which we call "azure". If there is no atmosphere, the sun we see is a very bright fireball against a dark background of space, and the astronauts on the space station can see such a scene, because the sunlight through the atmosphere loses most of the blue area of the spectrum, and we see the sun through the atmosphere is often yellow. Blue light is mixed with yellow light to become white light (sunlight that does not pass through the atmosphere).

The sky on a rainy day is grayish-white, because the main performance of the sunshine is reflected by the thick clouds, at this time the light is weaker than the sunny day, the sky is darker than the sunny day, when the sunlight passes through the thicker clouds again, due to the larger water content in the clouds, there are more dust, the sunlight is reflected after the main performance of dust and small water droplets or small Xiaoice crystals, so the sky on a rainy day looks gray-white.

The sky is composed

To understand the composition of the sky, it is necessary to mention the atmosphere, and the earth is wrapped in layers of atmosphere, so it is also another name for the sky as we know it.

Atmosphere, a geological term, is the thick layer of the earth

surrounded by the atmosphere. The main components of the atmosphere are nitrogen (78.1%), oxygen (20.9%), argon (0.93%), and small amounts of carbon dioxide, noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, radon) and water vapor. The density of air in the atmosphere decreases with altitude, and the higher the air, the thinner it becomes. The thickness of the atmosphere is about 1,000 kilometers or more, but there are no clear boundaries. The entire atmosphere exhibits different characteristics with different altitudes, and is divided into troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, warm layer and fugitive layer, and above it is interstellar space.

The troposphere is the lowest layer of the atmosphere, close to the Earth's surface, and is about 10 to 20 kilometers thick. The atmosphere of the troposphere is greatly affected by the earth, and phenomena such as clouds, fog, and rain all occur in this layer, and almost all water vapor exists in this layer, and there are most of the solid impurities. The temperature of this layer decreases with the increase of height, about every 1000 meters, the temperature drops by 5~6 °C; the survival of animals and plants, most of the activities of human beings, are also in this layer, because the air convection in this layer is obvious, so it is called the troposphere. Above the troposphere is the stratosphere, about 20 to 50 kilometers above the Earth's surface. The air in the stratosphere is relatively stable, and the atmosphere flows smoothly, so it is called the stratosphere. In the stratosphere, there is very little water vapor and dust, and below 30 km in the stratosphere, the temperature is about -55 °C, the temperature is basically constant, and the temperature increases slightly with altitude in 30 km to 50 km. Above the stratosphere is the mesosphere, about 50 to 85 kilometers above the Earth's surface, where the air is already thin, characterized by a rapid decrease in air temperature with increasing altitude and strong vertical convection. Above the middle layer is the warm layer, about 100 to 800 kilometers from the earth's surface, the most prominent feature is that when the sunlight shines, the ultraviolet rays in the sunlight are absorbed by a large amount of oxygen atoms in the layer, so the temperature rises, so it is called the warm layer. The fugitive layer is on top of the warm layer and is made up of charged particles.

The atmosphere, also known as the atmosphere, is a layer of mixed gas that surrounds the earth due to gravity, is the outermost gas layer of the earth, surrounding the ocean and land, the atmosphere has no exact upper bound, there are still thin gases and elementary particles at an altitude of 2000~16000 kilometers from the surface, there will also be a small amount of gas in the underground, soil and some rocks, they can also be considered as a component of the atmosphere, the main components of the earth's atmosphere are nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide and less than 0.04% The total mass of the earth's atmospheric gases is about 5.136×10^21 grams, equivalent to 0.86% of the total mass of the earth, due to gravity, almost all the gases are concentrated in the altitude range of 100 kilometers above the ground, of which 75% of the atmosphere is concentrated in the troposphere from the ground to the height of 10 kilometers, according to the vertical distribution and movement characteristics of atmospheric temperature, it can also be divided into stratosphere, mesosphere, warming layer, etc. The atmosphere protects the surface from direct solar radiation, especially ultraviolet rays, and can also reduce the occurrence of extreme temperature differences throughout the day.

In addition to this, there are two special layers, namely the ozone layer and the ionosphere. The ozone layer is located 20 to 30 kilometres above the ground, effectively between the troposphere and stratosphere. This layer is mainly caused by the actinization of oxygen molecules by the ultraviolet rays of sunlight, which turns the oxygen molecules into ozone. The ionosphere is thick, about 80 kilometers above the Earth's surface. The ionosphere is a gas high in the air irradiated by the ultraviolet rays of the sun's rays, and the ionosphere is formed by charged positive and negative ions and some free electrons. The ionosphere has a great influence on electromagnetic waves, and we can take advantage of the characteristics of electromagnetic short waves reflected back to the ground by the ionosphere to achieve long-distance communication of electromagnetic waves.

Under the gravitational pull of the earth, a large amount of gas gathers around the earth, forming an atmosphere of thousands of kilometers. The density of the gas becomes thinner and thinner as the height above the ground increases. Sounding rockets still found a rarefied atmosphere at an altitude of 3,000 kilometres, and it is suggested that the upper limit of the atmosphere could extend to about 6,400 kilometres above the ground. Scientists estimate that the mass of the atmosphere is about 6,000 trillion tons, which is almost one millionth of the Earth's total mass. Atmospheric volume composition: nitrogen 78%, oxygen 21%, argon 0.93%, carbon dioxide 0.03%, neon 0.0018%, in addition to water vapor, dust, aerosols and large-particle suspended particles. Due to the protective effect of the geomagnetic field, the atmosphere is preserved by the solar wind and the cosmic high-energy ray stream.

In its natural state, the atmosphere is made up of a mixture of gases, water vapor and impurities. Air that removes moisture and impurities is called clean air. The main components of clean air are 78.09% nitrogen, 20.94% oxygen, and 0.93% argon. These three gases account for 99.96% of the total, and the content of other gases is less than 0.1%, including neon, helium, krypton, xenon and other rare gases. The levels of these gases in the near-surface atmosphere can be considered to be almost unchanged and are called constant components.

In clean air, the volatile components are carbon dioxide (CO2), ozone (O3), etc., which are affected by regions, seasons, meteorology, and human life and production activities. Under normal circumstances, the carbon dioxide content is significantly reduced by more than 20 km. Table 1-1-1 shows the composition of clean air near the surface.

The composition of the atmosphere is unstable, whether it is natural disasters or man-made influences, which will cause new substances to appear in the atmosphere, or the content of a certain component exceeds the average value in the natural state too much, or the content of a certain component is reduced, which will affect the normal development and growth of organisms and cause harm to human beings, which is the main object of environmental protection workers should study.
