Chapter 5 Swords, guns, swords, and shadows have their own causes.

It has been a year since he came to the moon, and in this year, Wang Kurong can go back to Earth once a month, and rest for up to 4 days at a time. Thanks to the invention of the dark matter engine, human transportation has been qualitatively improved.

Before the 21st century, humans had to rely on rockets powered by liquid fuel to move around the planet. The range of activity is small, the cost of launch is high, and the frequency of launch is pitifully low. Every time a rocket lifts off, it means that there is a large number of leaders who are dripping blood in their hearts. Not to mention the launch of several rockets in a short time. These leaders are absolutely reluctant.

In the past, I always watched TV, and it was common to see on the news that such and such a country launched a rocket into space, and then the satellite carried successfully entered low-earth orbit. Basically, the frequency of this type of news is kept about once every few months, and it is distributed to hundreds of countries around the world, hehe。。。。。。 If ordinary citizens at that time wanted to travel to extraterrestrial bodies, they could only do it. Moreover, the reliability of rockets before the 21st century is really low, and even countries with mature technology such as the United States and China can hardly guarantee a 100% success rate. Accidents happen every once in a while, and it's a regular thing. Not to mention going to the moon for a walk, even those carefully selected international-level astronauts will hardly have the fate to return to Earth again.

Once upon a time, taking a carrier rocket into outer space was like a cold storm. It can be said that taking a launch vehicle into outer space is a gamble. If everything is perfectly planned, it will take seven points of luck to successfully play back and forth. If there is a little accident, then there will be no return to Earth.

After entering the 21st century, human science and technology have advanced by leaps and bounds, and a person named Wang Aiguo has invented a device called "Dark Matter Turbine". Then Wang Aiguo was no longer called Wang Aiguo, but Professor Wang. I don't know what Professor Wang thinks, but it was only less than three days from the invention to the public free of charge. No matter what Professor Wang thinks, people all over the world have been touched by Professor Wang's selfless dedication. For people all over the world, it means that mankind can finally enter the age of space exploration. For Professor Wang, perhaps this is the reason why he can only be called Professor Wang.

In this era, not to mention flights between the Earth and the Moon, even flights between the Earth and Mars are available. There are dozens of flights from the Earth and Moon every day, and during the New Year's holidays, there are some temporary additional aircraft. There are at least 100 departures per day. It is against this background that Wang Kurong watched the news of several major powers competing for the territory of the moon in kindergarten to watching the news of several major powers competing for the territory of the solar system when he was in elementary school, and when he was in middle school, several major countries were basically talking about the news. By the time Wang Kurong was in high school, there were basically some small countries left to occasionally show their faces on the news, moaning without illness, and boring nonsense. By the time Wang Kurong University arrived, it was basically news that such and such a country had built such and such a city or such and such a fortress on such and such a planet. There is a country called Russia that put Petersburg on the moon in its original form, and then proudly declared that Lao Tzu was the best in the world. Not to be outdone, the United States moved New York to a third of the moon. China has also been actively operating, investing a huge amount of manpower and material resources to seize the lunar territory to the death. In the early stages of seizing lunar territory, the Chinese government gathered a large group of developers who subcontracted tens of thousands of kilometers of the moon's wall. Then it took these black-hearted tofu scum developers to enclose nearly one-tenth of the lunar land in less than a month. Exceeding the expectations of the party and the people, many, many, many 。。。。。。 It is precisely because of the lovely and respectable fighting spirit of the Chinese people that Ren has made other major countries stunned and unable to say a word like "you are cheating." After all, on this crooked wall, seven large characters are painted with paint every distance - "Welcome to the Chinese people". Relying on these patriotic developers of tofu scum, the Chinese government has made a lot of money in the process of racing against time to seize the territory of the moon, and the country's strategic goals have been achieved by relying on these hard-working comrades.

The CEO of "Celestial Dynasty Imperial Capital Real Estate Development Co., Ltd.", where Wang Kurong worked, was released from a prison cell sentenced to life imprisonment without warning in the early stage of the Chinese government's seizure of the lunar territory. Wang Kurong's boss is named Li Aiguo. Ten years ago, Li Aiguo was the CEO of a state-owned enterprise. This state-owned enterprise is mainly engaged in real estate development projects. In just a few years, Comrade Li Aiguo has built dozens of tofu scum projects for the motherland. Some of these tofu slag projects are residential areas, some are commercial office buildings, some are factory buildings, and more are office buildings of government agencies. In the early days, Comrade Li Aiguo's tofu slag project was well known to the masses for its super short construction period, moderate cost, and enthusiasm for after-sales. In the early days, these works were very strong. Therefore, Comrade Li Aiguo has won praise both inside and outside the organs and among the masses. In these praises, even Li Aiguo himself seems to believe that the project that cuts corners is definitely no worse than any project on the market.

Later, some voices of condemnation gradually appeared, but Comrade Li Aiguo ignored them by virtue of his connections in government agencies. Later, a senior leader who supported Li Aiguo was tragically attacked by a low-quality sewer burst when he went to the toilet, and then 。。。。。。 Without any suspense, Comrade Li Aiguo was sentenced to embezzlement of state-owned assets, construction of tofu scum projects, deprivation of political rights for life, and life imprisonment. And then serve his sentence in a prison where birds don't poop. It was not until the early stage of the battle for the territory of the moon that the leader probably took into account the general interests of the country and released Comrade Li Aiguo from the prison cell where he was sentenced to life imprisonment. After coming out, Comrade Li Aiguo received a start-up resource worth about 10 billion yuan. An order was also given - to build a closed wall on the moon as fast as possible. Then, after a month of hard fighting, Comrade Li Aiguo repaid all the sins he owed to the party, the state, and the people for the motherland. Not only was it repaid, but there was also a slight surplus. Reflected in the money, it is a small amount of money.

The specifications for the construction of the wall on the moon are at least 3 meters high, 20 centimeters thick, and every 20 meters, bilingual slogans in the Chinese and international languages must be painted with paint. This is a building standard agreed upon by several major countries, but any walled building that can meet such an indicator is the territory of the walled country. Whoever builds a long wall and encloses a wide area of land will be able to compete for more territory. This rule is undoubtedly very fair to all countries of the world. But for Chinese people, it's really, really, really, very, very, very fair。。。。。。 The cost of each kilometer of the fence project built according to such a standard has been calculated by experts over and over again, and at least one kilometer needs 1 million yuan. As a result, the government conducted a public tender on a 100-kilometre basis. The cost of each bid is 100 million. After Comrade Li Aiguo came out, he did not hesitate to contract 100 bids. I don't know if it's for atonement or whatever. Anyway, a month later, when other contractors settle their accounts, they only have less than 10% of the profits. However, Comrade Li Aiguo earned a net profit of 5 billion yuan. The 5 billion is still paid for taxes and gifts. After earning this money, Li Aiguo immediately redeemed a courtyard house that he had mortgaged to Everbright Bank ten years ago at the highest price. This courtyard house is located on the edge of Beijing's North Second Ring Road, near Houhai. Then without hesitation, he bought another office building in the city center, and then resolutely registered a real estate company - "Heavenly Dynasty Imperial Capital Real Estate Development Co., Ltd."

It is in this context that after nearly 3 years of internship on the earth, Wang Kurong was honorably promoted to assistant civil engineer by the company, and then sent to the moon to build the 11th city in China, the 32nd plot "Comprehensive Ecological City Block". Recalling that before the boss set off on the earth, at the send-off banquet prepared for 8 employees, including Wang Kurong, the boss said words that implied everyone to cut corners. Wang Kurong couldn't help but be a little worried. More of a little melancholy.

"The foundation treatment project of the swimming pool in the west area is seriously shrunk, the geology on the moon is complex, and there are several high-rise buildings around the swimming pool, according to the design calculation, the foundation of the swimming pool must be reinforced with uplift piles, and all the uplift piles must be set up in accordance with the specifications on the drawings with quality and quantity. However, managers have reduced the size of the uplift pile and reduced the size and quantity of the steel bar, which may not have left hidden quality hazards. In case the base of the swimming pool is destroyed, the pressure hood of the eco-city is destroyed. That's going to be a big accident! Wang Kurong thought worriedly.

The Moon is a star with a gravitational pull only one-sixth that of the Earth, and the air is very thin. So in order to build a small city on the moon, it is necessary to add a cable membrane seal to the periphery to seal the whole city, and then fill this closed space with a standard atmosphere pressure to form a pressure shield. Then lay the gravity treasure on the ground and adjust the gravity of the urban area to the standard earth gravity. Therefore, the whole city must be very stable, including the top of the wall and the ground. And considering the harsh environment on the moon, it must also be able to withstand hurricanes of magnitude 12 (including 12) and earthquakes of magnitude 10 (including 10). These construction parameters are very demanding, and the construction is very difficult. In addition, the lunar environment is harsh and the geological conditions are complex, and the workers are wearing talismans to work in a thin atmospheric pressure environment and a small gravity environment, which makes the construction more difficult. Although the gravity treasure is partially laid, these expensive gravity treasures will not be laid in the foundation pit of large-scale construction. Even the amulets worn by the workers are also a little bloated. Although physical weighting is carried out in some parts of the talisman, this is only so that the workers will not float up and cannot transmit gravity to the inside of the body, after all, the human body has adapted to the earth's standard gravity when it evolved, and suddenly appearing in a small gravity environment will cause a series of problems. The most prominent problem is that the original body strength cannot be effectively exerted, and there are often workers who have small gravity and have to return to the gravity treasure area to rest. Therefore, in the normal construction, the construction unit often spends a lot of effort, but always can not achieve the ideal construction effect.

In such a grim situation, it is bold for project managers and design managers to cut corners and shoddy. Buildings produced by such standards are far from the design values. The safety and quality are a real concern. Wang Kurong thought like this, and couldn't help but have a bold idea in his heart.
