Chapter 710: The Collapsed Economy
710. The Collapsed Economy
"I was just about to contact you, Tang Yu, how are you doing over there?" Chen Gang's voice came. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Wait a minute." Tang Yu clicked on the communicator a few times, and then placed it on a device on the command panel of the base, and soon, Chen Gang's appearance was projected on a light screen.
"The development of the base is going well, and now we have more Guardian IV robots in reserve than we imagined." Tang Yu said with a smile.
"Oh? How much more? Chen Gang asked.
"Haha, it's 200,000 units!!" Tang Yu proudly raised two fingers.
"Well, that's really great, and this number of bots is very helpful for our next plans." After all, Chen Gang is in his fifties, so he is naturally much calmer, he nodded and said: "I have also roughly touched the current economic situation, overall, the situation is not optimistic, but for us, it is an opportunity. β
"Tell me about the situation." Tang Yu said.
"Now the biggest impact is from the ocean, you know, as long as the Kaiju beast appears, they will emit toxins all the time, plus the current tactics of the mecha hunters, is to block the Kaiju beast ten kilometers away from the coastline to fight, so the blood that flows more or less during the battle is also integrated into the sea. Therefore, now the ocean, pollution is becoming more and more serious, scientists have found that long-term consumption of marine fish will accumulate a large amount of toxins in the body, and eventually lead to death. Even more lethal is the toxins that the chrysanthemum beast mixed into the ocean, and with climate change and rainfall, it began to penetrate deep into the interior. Chen Gang said heavily.
Tang Yu gasped, and Old Man Cai and Datu, who had already known, shook their heads and sighed.
"So the impact on the global economy is all-encompassing. First, the global fishing industry has been devastated, with all the companies involved in marine fish fishing going bankrupt and a large number of people losing their jobs. Worse still, it has led to famine in coastal countries and regions that feed on marine fish. At the same time, although the toxin that enters the interior through rainfall is not fatal, this very stubborn toxin will enter food crops and then be ingested by humans, although there is no clinical conclusion yet, but the common speculation is that long-term consumption will lead to chronic death. Chen Gang continued.
Tang Yu said with a solemn face: "Therefore, almost all ocean-related industries have been destroyed now, and the resulting stock market collapse, bank bankruptcies and economic recession, coupled with famine and unemployment, are the main problems of the global economy now." β
"And that's not all." Chen Gang suddenly sneered and said, "Do you know what Europe is called now? β
"Eden ......" Datu suddenly replied beside him, his face also pale.
"Garden of Eden...... Could it be ......" Tang Yu suddenly thought of a very bad possibility.
"I think you've guessed it." Chen Gang's voice trembled a little, "Europe, which is now far away from the Pacific coast, is far more secure and environmentally friendly than other places. As a result, almost all wealthy and vested interests are rushing to Europe. As a result, the population of Europe has exploded, and now the settlement conditions there are becoming more and more harsh, and it seems that these people want to drive those ordinary people out of Europe, and then enjoy this last paradise of mankind alone. β
Boom! Datu slammed his fist on the table, making the display tremble: "Those people, damn it!" β
"So they are now trying to downplay the threat of the chrysanthemum beast, anesthetize those ordinary people, and then deduct all kinds of PPDC funds! Otherwise, how do you think that this kind of atmosphere of the whole people taking away the chrysanthemum beast and making fun of it can happen without the connivance of the high-level? Chen Gang's voice was also a little angry.
Tang Yu suddenly showed a cold smile: "Then in that case, the security of Europe is very problematic, right?" β
"Well, that's for sure. The indigenous people do not want to leave, but they have to bear higher and higher taxes and housing barriers, and in the end they are not displaced and driven out again. Old Man Cai sighed.
"In that case, I think they should be in great need of a very reliable guard who doesn't mutiny, doesn't need to eat, doesn't sleep?" Tang Yuyin said with a smile.
Chen Gang smiled knowingly, and he said: "I think this market will be very hot. β
"Do you want to sell these robots to Europe??" Dartut was shocked, "Do you know what would have become of Europe if those rich people had robot guards?" Maybe it's really closed up and become their paradise! And the rest of the people can only struggle under the threat of the chrysanthemum beast!! β
"I don't care what they're going to do with Europe! All I need is their money! Open the chrysanthemum beast, I will drive it away, but it will take a lot of money! Since they would rather keep their money for eating, drinking, and having fun in Europe, and may also use it to build an anti-monster wall to paralyze the populace in the future, then I will find a way to dig up their money!! After I get rid of the chrysanthemum beast, I'll take my time to deal with the affairs of Europe. Tang Yu snorted coldly and said.
Chen Gang smiled very appreciatively and continued: "In view of this problem, I have to say that one of your arrangements is very predictable. That is for Kara-RadamΓ¨s to work on a crop that can grow in extreme environments, and I've already found several agricultural institutes, and based on Kara's research, we'll be launching this improved crop with potatoes and sweet potatoes in a few months. This crop can filter out the toxins of the chrysanthemum beast during the growth process, and as long as the pollution is not too severe, it can be planted. β
Tang Yu nodded, "Grain will be our most important product." The world is facing famine due to the influence of the chrysanthemum beast, and we are about to become the largest supplier of food. β
"Then it's about using the Guardian Four and those automatic construction machines to form a construction company, whether they want to build a wall or build their own paradise in Europe, in short, the construction company's business will be greatly expanded." Chen Gang continued.
"Also, it's the use of the corpse of the chrysanthemum beast, and I think we'll have a conflict with the 'Monster Repair Organization', after all, this is their business scope. Because the corpse of the Kaiju Beast is rich in a large number of trace elements, after processing, it is good for the human body, for example, the internal organs of the Kaiju Beast can treat heart disease, their bone meal is a good aphrodisiac, and the carapace will get a metal with good performance after being processed with alloy steel, which is used for the development and construction of mecha hunters. Chen Gang said.
Tang Yu nodded, "In the future, there will only be more and more chrysanthemum beasts, and the corpses of chrysanthemum beasts, whether it is PPDC or the 'monster completion organization', it is impossible to control them all." So, there are many more opportunities. β
"Coupled with some of the investments I made five years ago, which are already paying off, with robot guards, construction companies, food and the carcasses of the chrysanthemums, I believe we can amass a significant fortune within a year." Chen Gang said confidently.
Tang Yu said with a smile: "Then the Guardian Group will entrust you, after contacting Cai Tiantong, I will enter the 'Hunter Academy' of PPDC." Money is one thing, to convert money into combat power against the Kaiju Beast, it is still the 'Mecha Hunter'! β
