Chapter 290: Ten Years Later

Time is like water, and time is like a shuttle.

It's almost a blink of an eye.

The year 2038 has come.

Ten years passed in a trance.

Ten years is not long, but it is not short.

The 33-year-old guy Wei Ming has become the 43-year-old middle-aged uncle Wei Ming at the moment.

Many aspects of the world have also undergone tremendous changes.

Some of the changes are even bigger than originally thought.

For example, the immigrant population living in Yuexing has exceeded 5 million.

The number of immigrants living on Mars has exceeded 10 million.

There are also more than 20 million immigrants living in a circular space city with 0.4G gravity...... Space cities are extremely cost-effective, with low construction costs, only one-third to one-tenth of alien colonial cities, high recycling rates of water resources, high solar power generation efficiency, and space cities with power systems that can also be moved.

Whether it's the orbit of Mars, or the asteroid belt, or the orbit of Jupiter.

Space cities can be slowly moved over, and then used as a transit base for mining and smelting ores, processing raw materials, producing parts or equipment, etc., to become a space production center.

Since there is no need to overcome the gravity wells of large planets, the cost of living and production of space cities are low, and with modular design and production, space cities can be produced and assembled at a very fast speed.

Therefore, space cities have become popular rapidly in recent years.

Among the 126 space cities in total:

Huaguo accounted for 71.

The Black Hole Group accounts for 52.

The European Consortium accounted for 2.

Island League accounts for 1.

As for a certain country, after a major mysterious natural disaster 10 years ago, it has now been reduced to an area dominated by a number of armed groups of drug traffickers, and has long been torn apart, becoming one of the most dangerous and turbulent regions in the world, and has no strength to explore outer space.

In the field of science and technology, this decade is still showing explosive development.

In addition to the "small reactor" technology with water droplet crystal materials, the "large reactor" technology developed using conventional new materials has also been successful, although the overall volume is ten times larger, but it has broken through the bottleneck of production and can be produced in large quantities.

The price of electricity for residents in China has finally been reduced to less than 2 cents per kilowatt-hour.

Artificial intelligence technology is advancing by leaps and bounds, and has replaced more than 90% of jobs, only designers, writers, musicians, painters, screenwriters, artists and other jobs that require a certain amount of "imagination" and "creativity" cannot be replaced, so the cultural industry is extremely prosperous, but the competition is also extremely fierce.

Virtual online games have become the industry that absorbs the most jobs, only in China, there are more than 80 million professional players, among which the top handful of elites, can easily earn more than 100 million yuan a year, with a reputation no less than the superstar, of course, the lowest gold strikers generally only have a monthly income of three or four thousand, occupying the absolute mainstream, if there is not also "relief" and "subsidy", this money can not even maintain the most basic life.

Productivity has increased at least tenfold.

China's total GDP has also increased to a staggering 1,000 trillion yuan.

But the average income of the lower classes did not increase much in this decade.

It can be seen that the gap between the rich and the poor has widened to an unimaginable extent.

But fortunately, prices have not risen, but have decreased, unemployment benefits have increased to 3,500, family subsidies have also increased to 4,000 per person, coupled with the development of the cultural industry, and vigorously support the "super pacifier music" of virtual online games, the happiness index of the bottom population is still very high, and the enthusiasm for childbirth has also been greatly improved, and the total population has now exceeded 1.7 billion.

In the medical field, the "Longevity Plan" was a complete success ahead of schedule, and it was no problem for every population to live to the age of 150 with health and vitality.

Even if you have the money, you can buy more advanced life extension medical services, and whether you can live to be 300, 500 or 1,000 years old depends on how much money you have in your pocket.

For the vast number of middle and lower class population, each of them has a chance to enjoy "life extension treatment", and the medical insurance reimburses him 90%, which can generally be successfully extended to 150 years old, but the second "life extension treatment" is not only not reimbursed, but also has to increase the price by 50%.

So some people who want to live longer, not only do not dare to relax, but study and work hard, and even the more elite the more pressure, basically not indulge in virtual online games, in their opinion, indulging in this thing is simply a chronic suicide, is the least efficient way to use time.

In today's era, it is difficult to exchange time for money, but money can buy time, even if they are elites with a monthly income of hundreds of thousands, if they want to live past a thousand years, they have to struggle for 300 to 500 years, where can there be the slightest relaxation?

However, for Wei Ming, many problems do not need him to care about and consider, and he does not have that much ability, everyone is like a dragon after all, it is a good wish, he just needs to manage himself and the people around him, everything else will go naturally, he will change when it is time to change, and the people at the bottom are happy, what are you anxious about?

……

October 18th.

Black Hole Town, Villa No. 1 in the upscale area, backyard meadow.

A small starship almost fifty meters long was parked.

The nannies and maids moved the same items into the dock open at the rear of the starship, which had a large space for not only a large number of items, but also drove into several luxury cars and parked them in the "garage" on the lower floor.

"Dad, are we really going to move to Mars?"

The eldest son, Wei Dong, who is almost 14 years old, pulled Wei Ming, who was still young, and said: "Mars is so far away, many good friends will not be able to see it in the future, and the environment is not as good as here, why go to Mars?" ”

"yes, Mars is too desolate, it's good to have Blue Star there." The 12-year-old second son Wei Mang also said.

"Don't ask so much, Mars has been transformed very well, it is not deserted at all, Mars will be your new home in the future, and you will fall in love with your new home."

Wei Ming patted their tiger heads.

"Can you bring Nami with you?"

Knowing that the move was irreversible, Wei Dong gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, the Starry Sky spaceship is so big, it's no problem to bring one more person, right?" ”

"You're finally admitting that Nami is your little girlfriend?"

Xu Chuxia, who was holding her fifth daughter Wei Nuan in her hand, walked over and grabbed his ear: "I asked dozens of times before and didn't admit it, but now I finally recruited?" ”

"Pain, Mom, can't I recruit now, Nami is my girlfriend, I like her very much, I don't want to be separated from her, can we take her for a walk?" Wei Dong had no choice but to say.

"Dad, I like Shusha in my class, I want to take her away too, if she doesn't go with me, I'll knock her out." The second son, Wei Mang, also said at this time.

"Do you like that, you are hungry for her body! Don't bring it, you're not old yet. ”

Wei Ming shook his head, his second son is obviously a mango of mango, how did he become a hooligan?

The two brothers made a fuss for a while, and were suppressed by Xu Chuxia by force.

After the transfer of the item is completed.

The Starry Sky slowly took off and headed for its new home, Mars.

In addition to more than twenty cooks, drivers, nannies, maids.

Wei Ming and Xu Chuxia are husband and wife.

There are also the eldest son Wei Dong, the second son Wei Mang, the third daughter Wei Xue, the fourth son Wei Chao, and the youngest daughter Wei Nuan...... A total of five children.

This big family also left its home planet Blue Star today and embarked on a journey to Mars.

It is impossible to say that there is no attachment and reluctance.

But there is still a long way to go in life, but everything must be forward, and we must believe that the future will be better.
