Chapter 14 Follow the float to do the experiment
"So you're floating?" Zhao Zhuo glanced at the black man in surprise. The other party shrugged his shoulders slightly and nodded: "That's right, I'm a float." ”
Zhao Zhuo didn't think about it and asked, "Is it dangerous?" ”
Of the five billion people in the Federation, slums account for the largest number of people. That's three billion. On the other hand, ordinary people and the rich and noble only account for the remaining two billion. For those living outside the slums, the slums not only represent the worst, dirty, and unpromising group of people at the bottom of the society, but also have another meaning - that is, incomparably cheap labor!
As long as you have a way, you can even spend a few loaves of bread to find a "dead man" from the slum who can risk his life for you.
So, there are often people who intervene in the ghetto from other higher districts in some unknown way, exchanging rather cheap food for things that they would not have in the outside world: human life, labor, the human body, which is strictly forbidden...... All in all, in the eyes of outsiders, the slum is a big cake that is quite attractive and has potential. Everyone wants a piece of the pie.
However, slums do not mean that they can intervene. Because of their innate inferior status, people in the slums are full of envy and longing for the upper and higher communities, but also have a kind of hatred for the rich and inferior in their bones. They will be insanely hostile to the rich or even ordinary people who enter the slums. If you want to open up a market here, you need to take a considerable risk. Later, these people, although they could not directly "recruit" these poor people, could use some of the poor who were willing to cooperate with them as buffer mediators. In this way, the likelihood of rejection and hatred will be much lower.
Thus, the poor intermediary called "floating lot" by the poor was born.
The advent of floating lots has smoothed and stabilized the communication between the slums and other upper-class areas, and at the same time, the lives of the people in the slums have been eased to a certain extent. Participating in the work introduced by the floating visa can often be paid better than the work on weekdays. Therefore, as long as it is not too dangerous work, people like Xiang Zhao Zhuo will not miss the "floating lot".
"How can it be possible not to be dangerous to make solid materials. However, I can assure you that even if something happens to you, it will definitely not cause you too much harm. At most, it's just a headache and brain fever for a day or two. Seeing that Zhao Zhuo had the intention of continuing to talk, the black man breathed a sigh of relief, the status of "floating lots" in the slums was actually similar to that of a traitor in a certain sense, and if he encountered some hot-blooded stubborn poor people, he might have to fight with him because of this.
After listening to the other party's words, Zhao Zhuo nodded, and after thinking about it, he asked, "So, how long do I have to do it?" Will I go with you now? ”
"It didn't take long. Maybe one day, maybe three days, come during the day and let you go in the evening. It's just right for you to come with me now, you only need to make a few real yàns, and you can get food. The black man patted Zhao Zhuo on the shoulder and said with a smile.
Zhao Zhuo listened and nodded: "That's good." I'll go with you. ”
Following the black man out of the back door of the acquisition office, the two walked through the streets and alleys, and soon came to a deep and wide hole. There were no less than twenty branch openings in the hall of the underground cave, and Zhao Zhuo followed the black man into the fourth cave on the left, and then walked all the way along the hole, feeling that he was still going deep underground.
The light in the long cavern was dim, and there were small dim lights at intervals, barely illuminating the road directly below. After walking like this for more than ten minutes, the two finally stopped at the end of the cave.
A silver-white gate appeared at the end of the cavern. On the walls of the cave on both sides of the gate, there are two very bright lamps. From a distance, it seems that the eyes of some kind of murderer are burning in the dark.
"Here we are." The black man stepped forward and stood in front of the door and waved his hand at a small hole above the door.
After the strange sound of "squeak", the door quickly opened.
Zhao Zhuo followed the black man in.
As soon as he entered the gate, the dazzling light made Zhao Zhuo subconsciously close his eyes. It was a long time before he squinted uncomfortably and looked around.
Clean!
It was the first thing he felt when he saw this.
The ceiling overhead is made of silver-white metal, and every meter there are some strange long strips of lights emitting dazzling white light, illuminating the whole space very brightly. The surroundings of the hall and the feet of the two of them were also paved with silver-white metal, and standing on them, it was slightly cold. And these, no matter where it is, Zhao Zhuo can't find a trace of dust!
Except for this fresh dirt that he and the blacks brought in. In this open hall of 30 square meters, there is not a single stain in the hall covered in metal!
Unbelievably clean! No dust, no smudges, no garbage. The air was as fresh as the air on the ground in the swamp, but it was a little less cold. This made Zhao Zhuo's whole person feel relaxed and happy. Compared to this place, the capsule apartment I just slept in last night is as ridiculous as a child's mud toy!
"The first time I came here, I was just as surprised as you were. But that's the gap...... The gap between us and them. Those who have not experienced it first-hand will never understand. The black man said to Zhao Zhuo with a smile, with a desperate indifference and abandonment in his tone.
Only when people see giants with their own eyes will they know how small they really are.
Zhao Zhuo looked at this qiē silently, and after a while, he withdrew his gaze and turned his head to look at the black man: "Aren't you going to take me to do the real yàn?" Why don't you go. ”
The black man was slightly embarrassed: "I thought you would want to watch a little more." ”
"Nothing to look at. One day, I will have a place like this. Taking a deep breath, Zhao Zhuo said firmly.
"Heh, it's really not easy to daydream like this self-hypnotic at this time." The black man smiled gently, stopped talking, and walked forward with Zhao Zhuo.
There was a glass-like tunnel directly in front of the two of them, and through the tunnel, it was clear that the entire hall had been completely hollowed out. Beneath where they are is a large busy office area. The people inside were all wearing white coats, or wearing glasses, or being meticulous, or chattering about something. And in the middle of the work area below, there is a large glass cylinder. In the cylinder, some strange instruments are constantly changing something. Zhao Zhuo took a general look, and felt that his brain was muddy and he didn't understand anything. simply withdrew his gaze and didn't look at it.
"Ika, it's great to have you here." Walking through the long glass tunnel, a short man with glasses greeted him, who stepped forward slightly and hugged the black man, and said with a smile. The clean white coat was immediately stained with a little dust.
