More than two hours later, a barrage of vehicles with heavily armed troops arrived in Prosperity Town, only to be stationed on the outskirts of the town because it was dark, to establish a defensive line and a temporary station.

Early the next morning, the townspeople who were still in the mall opened their doors and walked out of the mall.

Most of the sun-hating spiders are gone, and a large number of FBI personnel are present in the town, including soldiers and researchers, who want to find out where these giant spiders came from, or do some research or something.

Locke didn't care about these things, and he took Ashley along to record a confession.

"The next thing for those FBI people to worry about, I will definitely ask about this matter for a long time, but I have a special channel, I am going to leave early, do you want to come with me."

"Of course." Ashley didn't hesitate: "I wanted to leave this town for a long time, but my mother ......"

"She's supposed to be with Chris, I heard that he followed the FBI into the mine to search and found new gold veins, maybe it will prosper again."

"That's none of my business." Ashley said a little weakly: "Yesterday has not stopped until now, I want to find a place to rest first, you must take me with you when you leave." ”

"Of course, how could I have forgotten our princess, but the town has not yet been searched, it is under lockdown, and if you want to rest, you can only camp in the suburbs."

Locke smiled and said, "Fortunately, we have the dedication of Mayor Wade, who has disappeared, and the mall has inflatable tents for special camping. ”

Ashley seemed to be in a better mood: "Mayor Wade hasn't been found yet?" It's a pity, I'll pray for him, and after a thorough search, the FBI people will arrange for the townspeople to live near the shopping center first. ”

Locke nodded: "Thank you for his kindness and generosity, and hope he is happy in heaven or hell." ”

The two men dealt with each other and ate a bit, set up a tent near the mall, yawned, and Ashley collapsed into the tent.

Locke also slept for a while, and when he woke up, he contacted the agents here, met the commander here, and took Ashley and Samantha to meet again, and the mother and daughter talked for a while.

Perhaps worried about her mother and younger brother, Ashley, who was ready to leave with Locke at first, finally let Locke leave alone, saying that she would contact Locke again when the family settled down.

Something like this has happened, and a lot of people want to get home quickly, it's just that the town is not completely safe yet, and the FBI is still searching.

The only good news for the townsfolk is that Chris and the FBI search the mine and discover new veins, which means that the town can prosper again.

This news didn't mean much to Ashley, she didn't want to be tied to such a small town for the rest of her life at a young age like her mother.

As for the future development of Samantha and Chris, Locke is not concerned, although after the discovery of the gold mine, Chris as the owner is likely to become a rich man, and the townspeople will be able to live a middle-class life.

He arrived at Princeton early, and a month and a half earlier, he had already bought a property near the university.

After all, this is a place where he will live for many years in the future, and Locke did not intend to wronged himself, so he prepared the house early and finished the decoration.

Locke, who was in a hurry, repaired his new residence, and drove to New York early the next morning to contact Tang Wei, who was already on summer vacation.

"I've read your book, Arcane Throne has been very popular lately, and it looks like you're going to become a well-known author." Tang Wei congratulated Locke.

"Thank you." Thinking of his book, Locke is also in a good mood, as time goes by, the fame of the work gradually spreads, and the potential points also follow, so far he has not been willing to use up all the potential points that have been increased by writing books.

"Speaking of which, you study hard enough." Locke glanced at the desk in the outer hall, which was lined with various books.

In the past year, except for Locke's occasional visit to New York, Tang Wei's time has been spent on studying, and his efforts are comparable to the college entrance examination sprint in Dongguo.

"After all, I can't rely on you all the time, I must at least be able to become a middle class on my own." Tang Wei said with a smile.

"Middle class, I didn't expect you to believe this?"

"Why don't you believe it!" Looking at the ridicule in Locke's eyes, Tang Wei couldn't help but give him a roll of his eyes.

"This is just a pseudo-concept concocted by the capitalists." Locke laughed and teased, "I thought you would be able to figure it out with the education you received in the Eastern Kingdom.

The property in the bourgeoisie and the proletariat refers to the possession of the means of production, while the property of the so-called middle class has been stolen into the property of property.

Owning property does not mean owning assets, so most of the middle class is just a proletariat with some money, especially the white-collar workers in the cities.

Compared with the proletariat, they just live in a house with better decoration, a better car, and a little more refined clothes and food. ”

Tang Wei: ......

I feel like you've ruined my last bit of good impression of the United States.

"Don't thank me, baby." Locke smiled and said: "This world is like this, in fact, everyone can understand if you think about it, but everyone selectively ignores it, after all, people need to comfort themselves by deceiving themselves many times." ”

The corners of Tang Wei's mouth twitched, and she found that what she said made sense, she was really speechless, and finally could only glare at Locke fiercely: "Okay, I know, it's you, a big capitalist, who have been deceiving me all along." ”

"Then you can choose to negotiate hundreds of millions of business with me now, which may make you feel better."

"You can talk about anything!" has been with Locke for a while, and Tang Wei can sometimes keep up with the rich connotations of Locke's words.

……

Since the Arcane Throne began to sell well, gradually some companies have come to the door, after all, there are still enough fantasy elements in it, and the plot is suitable for making a TV series.

However, Locke has no intention of selling the copyrights of film and television and peripherals now, and the income from these copyrights is not at all comparable to the income obtained from simply selling books.

If possible, Locke even plans to invest in filming himself and make it into a high-quality drama.

Speaking of which, in his last life, Locke's favorite thing to watch was HBO's American dramas, and unlike most free-to-air TV stations, this cable network media company does not survive on advertising fees, but on subscription fees.

Even if there are free channels, more and more families in the United States will choose to pay to watch HBO's elaborate high-quality TV series instead of the brainless soap operas of free channels.

HBO is a cable television network owned by Time Warner, and the IP of Little Wizard is also promoted by Time Warner, but as long as it is a super large media group, it can do similar things.

If you are able to become an important shareholder, you can initiate a proposal, like a little wizard, and bring out your own works, and every increase in fame at that time represents potential points.
