Chapter 178: Hint
After retracting his gaze from the man named Hank.
Charles thought back to the recent date, and then turned his gaze to Ge Wense beside him: "Uncle Ge Wense, I heard that you recently bought a medium-sized lumber yard on the outskirts of Corens?"
As soon as he heard this question, Ge Wense instantly raised his eyebrows, lowered his voice proudly, and whispered in Charles's ear:
"Yes.
Because of the abundance of blue wood there.
That kind of wood is not worth much now, but as far as I know, it is a necessary raw material for a special flavor.
And that flavor is a new product that has only recently been invented, and it has a wide range of effects.
Because it is new, it is still only circulating in the place of its birth, on another continent, and has not yet spread to the vicinity of the country of Galitus.
So I took advantage of the lack of information, bought the lumberyard at a very low price, and asked the workers to plant a lot of blue wood.
In a few years, when those techniques are popularized here, the raw material of Lanxi wood will also just reach maturity, and it will be a lot of wealth at that time!"
After saying this, Ge Wense was a little worried that young people were too impulsive and would cause unnecessary trouble, so he hurriedly added a sentence and taught: "I also told your father about this matter, and he and I actually bought two or three lumber mills each, and we are working hard to stock up on goods, so you don't want to step into this industry again."
Although the two of us still have a lot of spare funds and can eat more of the production area of Lanximu, we are not enough to keep so many interests.
If you buy a few more lumber mills, the skyrocketing wealth may arouse the hatred of many people.
Causes good things to turn into bad things.
In this wave, we can be fed, but we must leave enough room for other forces to let them taste the sweetness, which is a tacit agreement shared by those of us who are in the upper classes. ”
In this world, social classes have undergone several reforms.
But the process of history is usually driven by a few people and created by the many.
Due to their own education and vision problems, most of the roles of those 'minorities' are filled by the powerful.
Therefore, although the material and spiritual enjoyment of the commoners at the bottom is much better than in ancient times, the upper echelons who are responsible for controlling the wheel of history are still as stable as Mount Tai.
Although the privileges have been weakened compared to ancient times, the most practical powers have not been affected.
At most, it is not as blatant as before, as for the so-called equality of all people, seed oil dishes, just listen to it, don't take it too seriously.
And the civilians at the bottom are not without room for growth, but it is very difficult to achieve real success.
Only a very lucky few will succeed in one fell swoop.
Most of the emerging families can only go through the accumulation of several generations before they can gain the recognition of the upper class and become one of the upper classes.
Take the Lan Ximu mentioned by Ge Wense before, it is an opportunity to make civilians rich, but due to the difficulty of obtaining information, by the time civilians understand that those things are valuable, the resources have already been divided by the people above.
At most, there is a little leftover soup leftovers.
So for the vast majority of civilians, they are basically a wage earner for the rest of their lives, and being rich and noble is no different from winning the lottery.
In this case, the solidification of the class is extremely serious, and in line with the idea of looking up and not looking down, all kinds of rules and tacit understandings have been derived with the passage of time.
At this moment, listening to Ge Wense's heartfelt admonition, Charles was also very moved.
This kind of very straightforward empirical talk, unless you treat each other sincerely, otherwise you will not say it to outsiders at all.
After all, most people want others to be unlucky and not as good as themselves.
Charles recalled the previous life, although he was not bad, but he still felt anxious from time to time, and said to him with a somewhat serious expression: "I don't want to inquire about these things, but I heard that the machinery and equipment of the lumber yard don't seem to be very good, and there have been several rounds of safety accidents, so I want to remind you."
In the past, that kind of thing was okay, and it was just a big deal to give some settling-in money to the family, but during this time, I believe you should know a little bit about those ghost things, so in order to prevent accidents, you had better deal with the mechanical equipment, otherwise there will be a real problem, it will definitely be a big loss!"
After hearing this, Ge Wense's brows furrowed slightly.
Unlike the civilians who live at the bottom and don't know anything, he knows exactly what the hell Charles is talking about.
It was a catastrophe that ordinary people had little way to resist.
And the breeding conditions for that kind of thing are usually all kinds of unexpected places.
So if there are a few more accidents at the lumberyard, then there is a real chance that those troublesome monsters will be born and turn it into a murderous place.
"I see, just to be on the safe side, I'm going to have the machinery repaired or replaced. ”
After receiving the reply, Charles nodded in satisfaction and did not say anything more.
In the last timeline he experienced, the lumber yard had a worker die two months later due to the disrepair of its machinery.
The way to die is the kind that falls directly into the machine.
The death was horrific.
It became a disgusting mass mixed with sawdust.
Two days after the incident, a very troublesome evil spirit was born there.
Killed most of the workers in the lumber yard there.
After the situation occurred, the people above faced this situation and sent two rounds of special forces to deal with it, but they did not solve it.
Instead, it makes it even more vicious.
Let it completely become a murderous place where people and animals are killed.
Although Charles was sure to deal with the other party before the evil spirit grew, and even took the opportunity to earn a sum of system points, in terms of his relationship with Ge Wense, he didn't want to affect the other party for this.
After all, there are such things as evil spirits, and he still knows where and when some of them will be born.
As for killing all the conditions for the birth of evil spirits in the vicinity, build a safe area for yourself.
This kind of thing, naturally, he has thought about it.
But in the end, it still felt unrealistic.
Because over time, as long as someone dies with resentment, it is possible to give birth to evil spirits.
And this kind of thing is simply unavoidable.
With that kind of effort, it's better to use intelligence, do some tasks, and earn system points.
At least you can give yourself more self-preservation.
Of course, those guys with great potential and particularly tricky abilities, he will still find a way to avoid their birth in advance, after all, persimmons have to be pinched softly.
The kind of evil spirit that will be a disaster in the future, forget it.
It's not a good target for farming quest points.
If you can't be born, try not to be born.
