Chapter 1051: A Transaction
In the north of the lighthouse country in North America, there is actually a rust belt, the reason why there is such an area, in fact, represents the decline of a culture, the north was once rich in industrial resources, so the railroad and other facilities are crisscrossed, but later these areas have declined, industry and the like have been moved, and facilities such as railways are no longer used, so these facilities made of steel began to rust, and people called the rust belt.
There are hardly any living people in these areas, and even if you can see people, they are often hunters in the mountains, these hunters make a living from hunting, and are not engaged in the planting industry at all, in fact, even if they want to plant, they are completely unable to support themselves, after all, whenever there is a natural disaster, their agricultural production will be reduced.
In ancient times, the north of the lighthouse country in North America was completely barren land, and if you planted crops here, you would not get a bumper harvest at all, even if it was the Inca Empire or the Aztec Empire in ancient times, it was all in the location of Central America, but later with modern agricultural planting technology, the Great Plains of North America came in handy, and various mechanized operations made the lighthouse country can harvest bumper crops year after year.
Now that the end has come, and there are problems with planting in the Great Plains of North America, when agriculture cannot feed humans, humans naturally choose to hunt.
"These people are so miserable, if they can't hunt successfully, they will go hungry." Xu Xing looked at the hunter in the mountain and said with emotion.
After Shen Feng heard this, he said helplessly: "This is other people's lives, you are still worried about them, there is no need at all, they want a good life, then build it yourself!" Don't plunder the riches of other places! ”
Shen Feng also has his own reason for saying this, after all, the former lighthouse country is extremely brilliant, which is based on the fact that they can plunder global resources, the dollar at that time can be said to have harvested the whole world, the dollar and oil are bound, so that oil will not depreciate significantly, and then the lighthouse country will have the opportunity to harvest the whole world.
The two flew on the North American continent for another week before finally arriving in New York.
When the capital, Washington, D.C., was breached, the Statue of Liberty fell to the ground, and the largest city in the east had become New York, which also had a population of several million, and a large number of wealthy people and families gathered in the city.
"We first look for a place to stay after we land, and then hire a guide, after all, we don't speak the language here, and it is difficult to communicate with others!" Shen Feng said to Xu Xing.
After Xu Xing heard this, she nodded hurriedly and said, "Everything is up to you." ”
Shen Feng drove the glider and slowly landed from the sky, and his appearance also caused many onlookers, just like last time, they were already surrounded by soldiers with loaded guns as soon as they landed, but after seeing Shen Feng, they became respectful again.
Shen Feng carried a large amount of gold on his body, and it was impossible to go out without money, and the money in this world has become gold and silver, and gold is impossible to synthesize, only when the universe is in the Big Bang, the gold element will be formed, but the diamond looks like a scam, and the diamond synthesized by artificial means is not much different from the diamond found in nature, and even compared to the purity, the synthetic diamond is even higher than the diamond in nature.
As a result, in the apocalypse, there is no one who likes diamonds at all, and occasionally someone finds a diamond ring and throws away the diamond on it, but leaves gold, which can be traded as currency, and diamonds do not have this function.
Shen Feng grabbed a handful of gold coins and said to the soldiers: "I'm not here to make trouble, I want to come over to find some useful information, if you can find me a guide, these gold coins will belong to you!" ”
When Shen Feng took out a handful of gold coins from his body, the eyes of these soldiers around them widened, because they knew how precious gold was, and now that a precious wealth was placed in front of them, they were all moved.
Shen Feng also saw the expressions of these soldiers at this time, and from their expressions, it could be inferred that they had been completely captured by money now, and they would do what they said next.
But at this time, someone spoke in the distance, and it was in standard Chinese: "Mr. Shen Feng, you have come to New York, why don't you come to me, but want to find other guides?" ”
Shen Feng turned his head to look, wanting to see who was talking, but found a strange man appearing in the distance, he separated the soldiers and walked over directly, Shen Feng didn't remember that he knew this man.
"Hello, do I know you?" Shen Feng then asked.
"Of course we met, we met at sea about eight years ago, I was Tom Clindon, but I hadn't learned Chinese at the time, I always used English to talk to you, do you remember now?" The man introduced himself.
After being reminded by the other party, Shen Feng finally remembered that the North American fleet had entered the Divine Domain to prepare to snatch the meteorite, and the leader of the North American Aliens was this guy, but there were very few people who survived at that time, and Shen Feng himself was not on the ship, I don't know who survived, and now it seems that Tom, the heir of the big family, is still very lucky, not only did he come back alive from the sea, but he also looked even stronger, and he turned out to be a sixth-order ability.
"I finally remember now, we did meet, I didn't expect you to be able to predict where I landed, how did you know I appeared?" Shen Feng then asked.
"Of course, it's because I have my own news network, and when I appeared in Mr. Shen, when I was in Salt Lake City, someone had already informed me of the news, and then the governor suggested that you go to New York to find out the news, so I also learned your destination." Tom said to Shen Feng seriously.
Shen Feng then said: "My subordinates and I came to North America, in fact, there is no malice, we just want to find some special information, during this period, I don't want to trouble you, the son of a big family, as my translator, I can only find someone else to become a translator." ”
Tom then smiled, and then said to Shen Feng, "I know what information you want to find, Mr. Shen, and I can also help you, because I know the whereabouts of this information!" ”
"So, you've heard about the meteorite?" Shen Feng asked cautiously.
Tom stretched out his finger, pointed to the sky and said, "It's all meteorites from the universe, and I understand the news." ”
Shen Feng looked around, the soldiers nearby had already put down their guns, no longer regarded themselves as enemies, but came to the neighborhood to maintain order, prohibiting people from casually contacting, so Shen Feng also had the opportunity to communicate with Tom alone.
"Then tell me now, where is the information about these meteorites? I'm going to bring it back soon! Shen Feng then said.
"There is no hurry in this matter, I remember that there is a saying in China that it is fun to have friends from afar! So I cordially invite you to visit my estate. Tom said with a smile, and finally posed as an invite.
Xu Xing whispered to Shen Feng and said, "City Lord, this guy's attitude is so kind, I suspect that he has some conspiracy, it's better not to go." Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief! ”
Of course, Shen Feng also understood what Xu Xing said, but now if he wants to know about the meteorite, he must go to the manor, this matter is related to the direction of the end from now on, even if he knows that the other party may have a conspiracy, he can only choose to agree.
"In that case, we'll have to visit your manor." Shen Feng then said.
Tom immediately laughed when he saw that his purpose had been achieved, the reason why he appeared here today was actually to wait for Shen Feng's arrival.
Finally, Tom clapped his hands, and an extended version of the sedan came to him in the distance, and several bodyguards opened the door of the sedan and invited Shen Feng and Xu Xing to enter it.
"Mr. Shen, we will also tow your glider to the manor, don't worry, I have already set up a banquet in the manor, just in time for dinner!" Tom said to Shen Feng.
Shen Feng walked into the middle of the car and sat down, Xu Xing also sat down next to Shen Feng, and the last group of people picked up outside the city, and came to a manor outside the city, where there is a very large manor, and the surrounding mountains and forests are all part of the manor, and there is a castle in this manor, the castle is built on a mountain, standing on the top of the castle, you can overlook the surroundings.
After the group came to the manor, Tom set up a banquet, and then invited Shen Feng and Xu Xing to sit down, many servants immediately started to serve, all kinds of exquisite food were placed on the table, and a maid tied a napkin for Shen Feng intimately, and Xu Xing did the same.
"Mr. Shen, the reason why I invited you to come to the manor is actually for a deal! I'd like to ask you to help kill a batch of mutated locusts, and in return, I can give you clues about the aliens, as well as many precious gifts! Tom said seriously to Shen Feng.
"Do you want me to fight you? You've got a good plan, let me fight you, and then you just need to provide a little clue to send me away! I'm going to fight the locusts! When Shen Feng heard the content of this transaction, he expressed his dissatisfaction at that time.
Tom then said seriously, "Mr. Shen, don't be in a hurry to refuse, I have a gift here that you can't refuse, and I'll let the servant send it right away!" ”
Tom nodded to the servant at this time, and immediately the servant left the dining hall and went to the side to roll out a show car, and above the show car was a glass cover, inside which was an absolutely confined space, in which the space was filled with inert gases, and only precious things would be kept in this kind of show car.
"Mr. Shen, please look, this is a national treasure that you are proud of, don't you want to bring it back?" Tom then pressed the light switch, and the contents of the show car were immediately illuminated.
