"Yes. ”

After listening to Zhuo Yuan's advice, Captain Hu nodded in response.

When the others heard that they and others were going to be imprisoned for a long time, they were not allowed to have contact with the outside world, but there was no fear or suspicion on their faces.

Zhuo Yuan had already talked to them before, and his seemingly captivity was actually a kind of protection for them. If they are really allowed to disperse and return to their respective homes, there will be all kinds of means, even at all means, to use them as a breakthrough, it is not easy to pry open Zhuoyuan's mouth, but what is so difficult for those real upper-class people to pry their mouths open.

What's worse is that if you really don't stand the persecution and confide in some truths, and break the oath you made to the mysterious "Mo Island Lord", then you will never be able to be an adult again.

Such a result makes people shudder just thinking about it.

The best way, that is, the way it is now, is to make it impossible for the outside world to contact them at all, and not to make that "breakthrough", if you have anything you want to know, go and ask Zhuoyuan.

Zhuo Yuan explained a few more words to Qin Ye and Captain Hu, then stopped staying, turned around and boarded the car.

"Let's go. ”

Seeing him leaving, under the leadership of Qin Ye, Captain Hu beckoned everyone to go deeper into the manor.

......

Zhuoyuan's car stopped in the center of the inner city, under the steps of a magnificent, imposing, and large marble building.

Getting off the carriage and going up the steps step by step, a feeling similar to "pilgrimage" will naturally rise in people's hearts, and people will deeply realize that this is approaching the "core area" of a king.

Greenland Consortium, which controls the life and death of hundreds of millions of sentient beings, has one main city, nine cities under its jurisdiction, one of the nine first-class consortia of Daxiazhou North Group, and one of the permanent members of the Council. Looking at the entire Great Xia Continent, they all enjoy a great right to speak.

Stepping back on this place, step by step, Zhuoyuan's mood began to change and adjust little by little.

Along the way, many people saw him, and their eyes flashed with different colors, some nodded their heads from afar, some were ordinary, still doing their own things, and some took the initiative to greet him, and even approached to say a few words to him.

Enter the Lingzi Elevator and choose to go to the top floor.

Along the way, people kept coming in and out, and some people saw him and greeted him with a smile.

"Ah, Si Shao, the expedition is back. ”

"Hmm. ”

"I heard that you have been separated from the team for almost a month, and you have not encountered any danger, right?"

"Nope. ”

He responded casually and perfunctorily, but in his heart he paid more attention to the smooth and fast operation of the Lingzi Elevator. The same as the operating principle of the core power machinery of the airship, it is only necessary to let the Lingzi machinery change the density of the air in a reasonable range and form a pressure difference with the outside world, and the power of the Lingzi elevator will be solved.

However, because Lingzi Fangmu is too precious as a "fuel", it cannot be popularized at all, at least not at all now, and only a few units have been "trial-run" in the most core and focused areas.

Therefore, he only had to share a Lingzi elevator with these "idle people" who came in and out, and had to bear their "harassment".

He has already seen through that those who are indifferent to him do not mean that they have ill will towards him, and those who are warm to him do not mean that they have good intentions towards him.

This building is simply a good place to "refine the heart", he often went in and out here when he was a teenager, he was also blinded, and he also saw some "truths", and when he saw more, he understood.

All the way to the top floor, exit the elevator, and at the end of a long corridor, there is a huge office with a door made of dark red wood.

He didn't stop and walked straight over.

"Bang Bang Bang"

He knocked on the door.

Soon, the door opened.

Seeing the person who opened the door, Zhuo Yuan's expression froze, and he said respectfully: "Second sister." ”

A man is dressed plainly, but between his eyebrows there is a rare fierce air of a woman, which can be called magnificent.

She looked the fourth brother up and down, as if to make sure that the parts on his body were complete, and nodded, "Everyone is waiting for you." ”

As she spoke, she opened the door wider and let Zhuo Yuan in.

Entering the room, in the semi-partitioned rest and waiting room, he saw two other young people, and he also greeted, "Big brother, third brother." ”

He beckoned, turning his head to look further in.

The eldest brother said to him, "Father is discussing things with a few uncles now, wait." ”

Zhuo Yuan nodded, found a place and sat down.

The four of them sat in a position, not far or close, almost centered on the four of them, dividing the entire waiting rest room into four equal parts.

Brotherly closeness? That doesn't exist.

Zhuo Yuan didn't mean to take the initiative to greet them, they were silent for a while, and the eldest brother with an elegant and heavy face asked, "You went out on an expedition this time, and you have been lost for so long, and you haven't encountered any danger, right?"

"There were some dangers, but they were all overcome. Zhuo Yuan replied.

The eldest brother nodded.

The third brother, who looked even more flamboyant and domineering, asked directly: "Fourth, this expedition has gained a lot of money, right?"

Zhuo Yuan waved his hand and said: "Whatever the third brother says, it is already a blessing to be able to return safely, so what is the gain...... Hey, this is also my own recklessness, I was too optimistic before leaving, and I rushed to sea without any preparations. ”

Speaking of this, he also sighed very heavily, with a tone of admonishment to those who came after.

The third brother just laughed twice, with a slight mockery in his expression, as if to say, "You coax ghosts".

Once again, there was silence in the room.

After a while, the sliding door in the middle of the room opened, and several middle-aged men walked out, their eyes looking at Zhuo Yuan almost at the same time, all with the eager care of their elders.

"Ah Yuan is back, it's good to come back, it's good to come back. ”

"Okay, it doesn't seem like anything...... Take a break and come to my house for a drink in two days. ”

“......”

Zhuo Yuan also got up and shouted respectfully: "Uncle Zhang/Uncle Liu/Uncle Chen......"

When they were all gone, there was a man with very deep nasolabial folds on his face standing at the door of the room, and he looked at the uneasy children in the room and said, "Come in." ”

When everyone had entered the room, a row stood opposite and waited for him to give him.

He stood behind the desk, put his hands on the table, glanced at several children, and said: "Ah Yuan came back safely, this is the biggest happy event, you want to talk to him about brotherhood, of course it is the best, don't fight other ideas, put away your thoughts, and do your own things in An'an." ”

As a father, he didn't have the habit of being false with his children, so he put his words on the table and made a decision directly.

Since there is nothing to say when the cards are spread out, there is nothing to avoid, Zhuoyuan's third brother immediately said:

"Dad, it can already be confirmed that Ah Yuan found a densely populated island after losing contact with the big team this time, because in his supply cabin, four kinds of food crops and more kinds of vegetables were found, all of which had undergone some mutations, and they were all very good mutations, completely different from those in Daxia Continent, and the preservation techniques were very good, these are enough to show that the island that Ah Yuan found had a very large population, and the preservation of civilization was relatively complete, if it was only a village of three or five hundred people, it was impossible!"

The middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "So what?"

Zhuoyuan's third brother said urgently:

"This is a huge discovery, as long as it is developed, it can bring us benefits and not to mention him, we can also include it in the scope of our Greenland Consortium, and then set up a Lingzi Lighthouse on it, this is an excellent springboard for us to contact Dahuazhou in the future, any other forces in Daxia Continent want to go to Daxiazhou, they must go through our territory, and the benefits that can be brought to us are not only massive? We can even directly become a top consortium with this!

And if Ah Yuan is for his own interests, he doesn't want to call this island out, and wants to develop it alone, and he can develop it to the extent that he can use his own strength? If he waits for the search team of other consortiums to find out, how can he protect such a big piece of fat? Therefore, the best way is for him to announce this island now, gather the strength of our entire consortium to develop it, and station heavy troops on it, so that he can protect this harvest. ...... This is not to rob him of his profits, in fact, for him, this is the maximization of interests, if it is because of greed and wants to monopolize, then it will be a real chicken and egg fight. ”

The middle-aged man looked at Zhuo Yuan and said, "The three of you said that you found an island of great value, is it true?"

In this regard, Zhuo Yuan did not deny it, and nodded: "Yes." ”

Then he asked: "Then he suggested that you make this discovery public, and use the strength of the entire consortium to jointly develop and maximize benefits, what do you think?"

Zhuo Yuan shook his head and said, "I still want to try it myself first." ”

Hearing him say this, his third brother was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and said: "Stubborn, stupid! Stubborn, stupid! How can you develop alone?"

Since the airship flew in the sky again, and the obstacles of the region and the sea were solved, those people who stood at the highest place on the Great Xia Continent once again set their eyes on the whole world, and what they were most concerned about was, of course, the Great China Continent, which was no smaller than the Great Xia Continent.

With the current airship technology, starting from the west coast of Daxia Continent and flying all the way to the west, there is at least half a chance of landing on Dahua Continent, but in practice, they will not do this.

For one, such a long flight, to cross various complex and dangerous seas, has become unknown, and what will happen is not known until the actual experience is made.

Just go all the way recklessly, the price is too great, the airship is not a cheap thing, it is the pinnacle embodiment of Lingzi technology, and all the forces can't stand it if the loss is so big.

Moreover, even if you finally succeed in reaching Dahuazhou, it does not mean that it is safe, but this is the beginning of danger!

The volume of Dahuazhou is not smaller than that of Daxia Continent at all, although they don't know what Dahuazhou has become after the change of the sky, they definitely don't dare to have any underestimation.

If they regarded Daxia Continent as the king of the jungle, they were secretly approaching the territory of the king of the jungle on the other side, and they couldn't be too cautious.

Therefore, Daxia Zhou chose a steady approach, first to discover the vast sea area between the two continents, first light up the map, and then build a springboard for Lingzi lighthouses, and make his preparations to the end, so that he will "tease" the king of the jungle on the other side.

As for searching the sea area with reference to the maps of the old era, follow the map...... This can only provide a reference, the world has already changed greatly, even the Great Xia Continent cannot avoid earth-shaking changes, and those islands in the depths of the ocean can not be "spared".

This sea area between Daxia Continent and Dahuazhou is the largest ocean on the planet, there are countless islands of all sizes, which have entered the old era of the 23rd century, and there are many areas in this sea area that are clearly explored, and there are autonomous groups on many islands, and even primitive barbarian tribes, and now after the change, some have become extinct, and some are still alive but cannot communicate...... Without actual exploration, it is impossible to predict what they will look like now.

It is indispensable to develop a "springboard" that can be borrowed by Daxiazhou, rich population resources, and a huge population base that must be able to communicate. Because the carrying capacity of the airship is limited and very precious, it is impossible to transport the native population of Daxia Continent across the vast sea area.

It is also for this reason that the island explored by Zhuoyuan is extremely precious.

When the middle-aged man heard Zhuo Yuan say this, he was not angry, and he pondered for a moment, and then said slowly: "Okay, since you have decided so, I will also depend on you." ”

Turning his head to look at the other three, he said, "When he dared to risk his life to explore the sea, whatever he gained, he deserved it." Whatever he finds, it's his own, and you can't force it. ”

Zhuoyuan's third brother said eagerly: "But Dad, he is obviously too selfish and can't maximize his interests!"

The middle-aged man glared and said: "That's what he discovered, what if you don't care if he is selfish or not, and can't maximize his interests? ”

Zhuo Yuan's third brother said angrily: "The island he found can't run away with long legs, and it's impossible to hide it with a cover, although I don't know where the specific location is, it can be inferred from the location where he disappeared, at most there are eight or nine goals that are possible, spend more time, he can find it even if he doesn't tell me, and then I will find it myself, don't blame me for robbing him!"

The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "If you want to find you, I will look for it, it is not his own place...... The two of you too, as long as you don't exceed my bottom line, you can toss as you want. ”

Finally, he looked at Zhuo Yuan and said, "You don't have any opinion on this arrangement, right?"

What can Zhuo Yuan say, can he really open his arms to stop them in the sky and not be allowed to approach a certain sea area.
