"This is the USS Cavon, an armed transport ship numbered GDM62249, and you've sailed into the Earth's sphere, slowing down, waiting for inspection instructions."

Since the energy life was revealed, the Federation's inspection of any foreign vessel has been extremely strict.

This inspection has reached the level of high control in cyberpunk, and the first step is to connect to the main computer of the ship being inspected.

According to the general practice of space ship operation in this era, the main areas of the ship, such as the cockpit, main passage, and power cabin, must be monitored by devices. The crew's private domain, which is mainly their own cabin, including the captain, cannot be an exception.

Therefore, once connected to the ship's main computer, it is equivalent to roughly monitoring the situation inside the ship, and at the same time, it also has a certain right to control the ship.

Of course, the supreme authority of the ship will not be transferred because of the takeover, but it will still be very passive, such as installing a Trojan horse or something, this is completely possible, and it is possible to use various means to prevent you, there are laws, downstream methods, and you have nowhere to appeal, and many times this is what makes people breathless?

Generally, those who engage in transportation in the asteroid belt have the experience of being exploited, regulated, and even humiliated. Even if it is a humanitarian relief material, when it reaches the ground, it is often taken away 10%, only those large companies, those people dare not touch, or the way of the commission is different, there are also those who can draw money from large companies, but it will not be a move on the transport ship, but to negotiate with the company, set the amount, just like a salary, it will be transferred when the time comes.

The inspectors aboard the Ancient Babylon were serious, heavily armed and wearing power armor suits.

Although in Xu Changqing's eyes, this is actually a light exoskeleton system with module armor, not a power armor suit at the level of planetary armor, but it is difficult for ordinary firearms in this era to cause damage to it. So they often appear on various occasions, and the most showy stage is riot suppression.

"I remember this face." An inspector looked in front of Xu Changqing a little frivolously and said to his companion: "Bet twenty yuan, the time when Guard 1 dodged the space torpedo was blind." ”

His companion complained: "How can this be gambled? The Kavon fired a torpedo and then let him show the operation? ”

The inspector smiled and said to Xu Changqing: "Hey, what about you?" How do you prove that you weren't blinded in the first place? ”

"Of course it's Meng, post-processing stuff, it's just a promotional video." Xu Changqing said with a smile.

"Look, I'll just say yes. Well, you owe me twenty. ”

"I'll go, I didn't promise to bet with you at all, right?" ……

After checking around, I couldn't find any problems in the end.

Of course, the force field generator saw it, asked what it was, and replied that the central air conditioner was not stable, and the air emitted still had a faint lemon fragrance.

An anomaly in the reactor was also discovered, of course, by an asteroid demon.

The inspector scolded with a smile: "Asteroid people love to play with this kind of cost-effective thing, and sooner or later they will kill themselves." ”

Xu Changqing agreed: "That's right, so the average life expectancy of people in the asteroid belt is 69 years old. ”

"Oh, forgot, you're from Earthling, welcome home, desert guy!"

To this day, when people think of Arabia, the first thing that comes to mind is the desert and the smell of the earth.

According to the old solar calendar, it is now the end of the year 2179, why is that place in the Middle East still full of yellow sand?

That's right, having technology is not the same as using, the world's cutting-edge medical technology in 2017 is already very good, how many ordinary people can use it?

The same is true of this world, as in Dubai, where there are cities deep in the Sahara Desert where you can get a glimpse of the real blue sky.

At the same time, there are places like the mountain villages of Afghanistan. Of course, looking at the living facilities, some people may think that it is to Anakin? Home of Skywalker.

It took some time for the supplies delivered by the ancient Babylon to be delivered, and Xu Changqing and Mary passed through the starport first, taking a shuttle to the surface.

The effectiveness of comprehensive environmental management is far from being as good as Xu Changqing imagined. When he stood on the ground and looked up at the sky, what he saw was gray-blue, and he felt dirty, just like the color of the sky he saw in 2017 when he encountered a hazy day in a metropolis.

But this is Salman, the out-of-the-way part of former Iraq, which is just as desolate. In 2017 in the Origin World, at least you can see a clean sky on a windless and sandy day, but not here.

The so-called one leaf knows the autumn, just look at here, and the situation of human beings on the earth is almost clear. The living environment is so bad, even if the level of material life is further improved by scientific and technological progress, the comprehensive happiness index is probably very limited.

Abbas is a prince, he has been clothed and fed since he was a child, and he has also seen people at the bottom, but his impression is flat, and when he arrives at Xu Changqing, his impression is becoming more and more thin.

It wasn't until I came into contact with the locals this time that I felt three-dimensional.

In front of him appeared a group of begging children, the youngest of five or six years old, the eldest twelve or thirteen years old, with withered and yellow faces, malnutrition, and dirty faces, hands, and shoes, but their clothes were clean.

The clothes are clean because it is a kind of chemical fiber fabric commonly known as 'no washing', and cotton and wool fabrics in this era are more valuable, and the poor cannot afford to wear them.

Of course, the yield of the plantation industry is higher, but the cost is also high.

In fact, this problem already exists in the source world, the land does not use chemical fertilizers such as the United States No. 2 urea, there is no food at all, how many years of planting, constantly to the land for benefits, long without the natural humus layer of the soil all the kind of fertility, the soil structure is unnatural, similar to those fattening broilers, beef cattle.

Moreover, there are more than 26 billion people on the earth alone and more than 6 billion people on the moon who lack light industrial products like the woolly bears of the past. In capitalist society, the least likely thing to happen is equal distribution or distribution according to need.

Facing the begging children, Xu Changqing said: "Only when you line up can you have gifts." ”

The two attendants bought a lot of things from a nearby store in a short time.

But it was not distributed, and the children were left to watch.

"What did I just say?"

After a while, the older children reacted and organized the children to line up.

The queue was lined up, and Xu Changqing asked people to give out gifts, mainly snacks to supplement vitamins.

"What should I say when I get a gift?"

In the same way, some were stupid, some were clever, and said thank you.

Then, under the threat that if you don't follow the rules, you won't get it, all the children learn to say thank you when they get the gifts.

The car that came to pick him up was already there, and someone in the car watched all this quietly, and when he came over, he got out of the car and greeted him with Shiite understanding.

After that, ask him, "What do you want those children to remember?" Rules and praises? ”

"No, order and gratitude, even if it's just superficial, have to have that attitude."

"It seems that the young eagles that were released in the past have indeed grown."

"The eagle who has learned to soar knows how vast the world is, and the once cliff nest is no longer enough to accommodate dreams."

"I thought you came back this time to take back the throne that rightfully belonged to you."

"No, the throne belongs only to those who are willing to give their wisdom and power to the seventy-four million Neo-Babylonians who make it up. For me, it was too hard. ”……

This small Middle Eastern state was created in the wake of the total collapse of Iraq, Syria and Saudi Arabia.

In this world, Iraq has never had a good time since the fall of Saddam, and Syria has always been rotten.

Saudi Arabia is about a decade after the invention of controlled nuclear fusion technology, and in 2057, there is still oil in the Middle East, but the energy has fully shifted to new fuels.

The oil giants of the past have gone to the moon to grab helium 3. The new currency bundle is helium-3 and the US dollar.

The Celestial Empire is indeed trying to catch up, starting with Tiangong-1, the space program has not stopped, but it is still not as good as the team led by the United States and followed by a group of Europeans, after all, these white people control most of the resources and markets on the earth.

The competition for helium-3 and the backwardness of the Celestial Empire are the main reasons for the rapid premature ejaculation after the peaceful rise of the Celestial Empire. At that time, a nuclear war was on the verge of breaking out. Finally, a group of European brothers are holding on to the thighs of the United States: big brother, we have laid the foundation for victory for at least the next hundred years, so back down!

This is the background to the Republic's expedition to Mars. In fact, the United States was also panicked at that time, but when you are a big brother, you must have face, otherwise how will you come out and mix in the future?

The big countries are torn apart, and Saudi Arabia and the like have not directly become beggars from the rich, and the use of oil in the chemical industry is still very extensive.

However, their declining importance still turned them from the darlings of the world to the lesser-known street boys, because with the technology of the time, the cost of deep-sea oil extraction also fell. This is also the benefit of the hierarchical improvement of energy development and use.

As the saying goes: almost everything is about money.

Aladdin's treasure was dug up, and the forty thieves were gone. The rest of the gang Ali Baba played with the sand on their own. There is no need to export holy warriors all over the world, and no one is interested in that desert anymore.

Of course, the suffering of the Arabs did not end there, on the contrary, it was just beginning. Survival, rights, for these purposes, the chiefs of the various tribes began to quarrel.

The Neo-Babylonian kingdom was built in this chaotic atmosphere.

Throughout the ages, the founders of the country were basically capable people, and so was Nebhani, the founding king of Neo-Babylon.

He is a Saudi aristocrat, decisive and capable, not very old, but not low-looking, originally worked under the Saudi crown prince.

When the dispute arose, Nabhani gathered a group of Shiite sheikhs, collected refugees, built new cities, and built a modern version of high walls, accumulated grain, and slowed down the kingship, at first he was very much like a capable minister who bowed his head and did things, but then became the object of all parties to fight for it when the real power became heavier and heavier, and he played a game of thrones in it, and after two beautiful wars that he won, he declared independence.

Nabhani's heir is his youngest son Isa, the father of the body that Xu Changqing now uses.

What does his real name mean, Ben? Isa? Nabhani, this refers to the son of Isa, the grandson of Nabhani, and then Ben? Muhammad, which means the son of Muhammad.

Generally speaking, go up to two generations, point out the names of the fathers and ancestors, and the last part of the full name can be places, like Saudi Arabia, Arafat, and Nasser.

Those with particular social status will be abbreviated by their names, like Yasser Arafat, the famous leader of the Palestinian National Liberation Front.

The branch of Abbas did not have a place name, but a clan name, that is, Muhammad.

In this world, there are few palace fights that are as delicate as the Celestial Empire, and most of them are rude, such as the Ottoman Empire, which invented the 'obstacle removal method', which is to kill all the brothers involved in the battle for the throne.

It is said that there is a person in history who killed 19 brothers at one time, some of whom are still breastfeeding, plus 15 pregnant concubines, and as for whether the concubine is pregnant with a man or a woman, it doesn't matter so much. It's really 'better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let one go.'" This is a very bad example.

Another not-so-good example is the Muhammad, the widow-marrying united front policy played by Muhammad.

Saudi Arabia's founding strongman Aziz, in order to envelop the desert tribes, fully carried forward the spirit of silent sainthood, and married more than 300 times, with 43 legitimate heirs alone. Saudi Arabia reached the beginning of the 21st century when the prince was 5000+, and the source was here.

Aziz thought of the ancestral precedent and was worried about the emergence of the 'wrecker law', so he came to a 'brother to brother'.

This method can only be said to be a temporary peace, but it is still a problem in the long run.

The younger brother died, and the younger brother had hope, but he and his brother were of the same generation, and it was very difficult to survive his brother!

So the improper play of power appeared, Faisal abolished his brother, and on the surface he supported a younger brother to be the crown prince, but secretly he followed his brother and helped his son to block power.

In the words of the Celestial Empire, there is no aftermath for the initiator? Faisal's son killed him, and Khalid succeeded him......

The Saudi family is so chaotic that all kinds of precedents have been set, and the neo-Babylonian kingdom, which is mainly derived from the Saudi family, is not anywhere. The body that Xu Changqing used Abbas's uncle was the one who played the 'brother to the end of the brother and' to the top position, and now he died violently, whether to continue to be the brother to the end of the brother, or the son to inherit the father's business, this is a question......
