Chapter 169: Wilderness

"Come, let's take a look at our new factory!" A week later, Liu Chang happily pulled Li Qingming into the car.

Not far. It is about 10 minutes' drive from where Li Qingming lives. It's close.

Soon, a huge factory building rose in the distance, with a high-walled compound and a heavily guarded compound. It covers an area of about 1,000 acres. No wonder it costs a lot of money to spend money on such a large piece of land, as well as this factory, fence, etc.

"Qingming, I have only hired some security guards at the moment. These are the few security guards you poached from Jiang Fugui last time. I left their numbers before, but now that the new factory is being built, I will invite them over!" Liu Chang pointed to the gate, and several security guards on duty said.

"Hello Master Li!" Several people looked excited when they saw Li Qingming coming over.

Ever since they were persuaded by Li Qingming to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, they have been waiting for the call. Although Liu Chang also gave them a sum of money, they wanted to work more than idle at home all day.

Now, Liu Chang has finally given them a job, and they are naturally grateful. Living in this city-state is miserable if you don't have a job. Every city-state does not raise lazy people.

Even if it's a slum, it's because they're poor, not because they're lazy. A real lazy person, this world cannot survive.

"I'm sorry, but I'm only giving you a job now. I'm really sorry!" Li Qingming stepped forward to greet him, "As for your work treatment, it may not be comparable to Jiang Fugui's, but at least the work here is solid and comfortable." And you don't have to do something bad outside. By the way, there is no staff dormitory, they can provide them with staff dormitories, so that they can live with their families. ”

"Well, we're only building the factory now. This will be followed by the construction of staff dormitories. We bought such a large plot of land in order to allow all our employees to live here. Liu Chang said with a smile.

Although the next meal, such as preserved eggs, salted eggs, kimchi, these are destined to leak out. But at least in the shortest possible time, ensure that the secret recipe for its production will not be leaked. Then, the life of a closed group dormitory is a must. In this regard, as long as there is money, it is not difficult to solve. As long as it is within the factory area, provide a living area.

Li Qingming nodded.

Subsequently, accompanied by Liu Chang, he entered the factory. When I entered the factory, I felt the vastness of this land. Each of the three huge factories can accommodate at least 1,000 people working at the same time. And now, there are some technicians inside, installing some machines.

"These are the assembly line machines that I designed after communicating with the equipment manufacturers based on the way we prepared the food. Liu Chang explained, "Although they know the general process of our production, they don't understand the formula, so this aspect will not be leaked." And I also signed a non-disclosure agreement with them. If they leak out, they will pay us the sum of our income for three years. And this account, I roughly calculated it with them, and they didn't dare to leak it!"

The federal government's compliance with contracts is very rigid. As long as you sign the contract, then you must execute it according to the contract. Although there may be a lack of humanized flexibility in the middle, after all, sometimes, there will always be some surprises.

But for the Federation, it is better to have such a lack of humanity than to have a non-compliance with the contract. Because, the weakness of human nature will infinitely amplify this humanized operation, resulting in a lot of unacceptable things in the end.

"Well, I can't eat too much of this thing. As long as we capture the market initially. Li Qingming said.

This thing, once you eat too much, will immediately get tired. After all, the taste is too strong, and this thing is easy to get tired after eating too much. Of course, no one has eaten this federation, so this beginning is bound to be extremely popular. It is enough to occupy this early market. As for the later stage, more of them come out with a variety of dishes. At that time, when restaurants are opened all over the Federation, it will naturally be more profitable.

Li Qingming followed Liu Chang and looked at it, looking satisfied.

"But this factory is so big, this security is not enough!" Li Qingming thought for a while and said.

"Well, I will communicate with Mr. Qin in this regard. It would be more reliable to draw some people from her. It is easy to recruit some people who do not know the intention of convening. Liu Chang looked cautious.

Now all parties are very hostile to Li Qingming. all want to spy on Li Qingming. It's just that now Li Qingming is basically studying recipes at home and doesn't go anywhere. It's also difficult for the outside world to spy on it.

But the movement of building a factory here is so big, it's hard to say. He needs to be as careful as possible when recruiting people. This security will be a top priority. Because it's a secret ingredient that concerns the whole company. Recruiting the wrong person can lead to the early leakage of the secret recipe.

Of course, there is another way, that is, to make it public, once it is made public, then others will take it and give Li Qingming the copyright. But that little copyright fee is too little.

"Why are there still around here, that's a sentry!" Li Qingming said, pointing to the buildings erected around him.

"Well, this is the sentry post we built to avoid something unwanted!" Liu Chang looked serious, "Of course, this is an advantage beyond the standard, and the Federation does not allow this to happen." However, with the cooperation of the Heluo Consortium and Mayor Jiang's accommodation, we still managed it. ”

Li Qingming nodded, and then walked up with Liu Chang, standing on this high-rise building, looking around, in the distance, the high-rise buildings were erected, that was the center of Jiangcheng, that was the most prosperous area. And here, this slum, it's already the highest point. On the other side, there is a wilderness.

Looking at the wilderness, which seemed to be calm, Li Qingming was a little puzzled why the wilderness was so terrifying. Isn't it just that the magnetic field is disordered, tornadoes are frequent, and so on, and in terms of federal technology, can't it be transformed into nature?

"Wilderness? Actually, let's put it this way, as far as I got some information by chance, our world came from after the cataclysm, and that's what you know. But there is actually a theory as to why there is a cataclysm. Liu Chang struggled for a long time and thought for a while, "I'm just saying it, don't take it seriously, it's just my hearsay, and there is no evidence to prove it." ”

Li Qingming nodded.

"Mr. Liu, I'll listen to it as a story. You say!" Li Qingming was full of curiosity.

"Rumor has it that before the cataclysm, an organization in this world decided to leave with humanity. But the number of humans is too large, so they can't take too many people with them. And then just a few humans were chosen on Earth, of course, not by the elite, supposedly, but by some game-type selections, and those people were eventually taken away. However, it is said that the vast majority of people in this large area where we used to live have been taken away. There are only a few people left, some who are not so good, or rather, some people who are not of noble character, or, I want to be more blunt, the group of people who we left behind should be all sinners, belonging to the group of exiled people. It's not that it's not good enough, it's that it's not noble enough. Liu Chang said with a frown.

This news was very shocking, and when Liu Chang heard it, he felt incredible. According to this statement, these people are the descendants of sinners, and belong to the group of outcasts. It's incredible. So why are these people abandoned? Rumors are moral issues. The source of this is not clear, after all, it is also hearsay.

Therefore, Liu Chang has always buried it deep in his heart and did not tell anyone. After all, this kind of thing is too appalling.

"And what happened later? If they were all outcasts, how could this be?" Li Qingming realized.

If the people of this area are all abandoned, then perhaps it will explain why there is no Chinese culture left. Because they were all taken away. Of course, there is another point that cannot be left without it at all. This, it shouldn't.

Later, it is said that there was chaos at that time, because of the shortage of resources, the entire human society fell into a doomsday crisis, especially when the end came, although it did not lead to the extinction of human beings, but many people contracted a strange disease. As for what disease I don't know, in short, humanity is almost in danger of genocide. At this time, it is said that someone came down from above. And then brought humanity through the crisis and built these 500 cities. Then it disappeared again. As for the wilderness, it is not only the harsh natural environment that is dangerous, but also the attacks from mutated creatures. In addition, our bodies are relatively fragile and unable to adapt to the harsh environment of the wilderness. Liu Chang said.

When Li Qingming heard this, he was still a little puzzled.

"So, what about our weapons, shouldn't human beings have a lot of weapons of mass destruction?" asked Li Qingming.

"Weapons of mass destruction? No, now we have only individual combat weapons, not large-scale. It is said to be forbidden because it will destroy our world. In particular, there is a large amount of methane gas emitted from the ground in the wilderness, and if used, it will cause the entire planet to burn. Liu Chang said.

Li Qingming frowned. It's a terrible environment. As for the exaggeration, is that exaggerated? What kind of world are you traversing? It's hell.

"In fact, the details are only known to those super cities. Cities like ours are located in the middle of the entire Federation Satellite City, which is relatively safe. There wasn't much danger, and we were behind enough. The real crisis comes from beyond the megacities. Liu Chang said, "That's why they have the most exact news there." We don't know much!" Liu explained.

"There is another question, that is, how do we go to other city-states?" Li Qingming asked, "This can't go by land, is it all planes?"
