After winter, the time every day seems to be shortened a lot.

I don’t know if this is just Lynch’s feeling, or if most people feel this way.

It seems that in summer, it doesn't take too long to wake up from sleep.

Many times it only takes five or six hours for a person to wake up.

But in winter, no matter how early you go to bed, it’s difficult to get up early in the morning.

Sometimes I sleep for eight or nine hours and still not get enough sleep.

Perhaps this is the hibernation gene hidden in human genes. Of course, it may also be just Lynch's feeling.

The longer you sleep, the shorter the time you spend awake, and the less time you can fully use each day.

Every day seems to pass so quickly that several days pass by in a trance.

It is getting colder in the Federation in December. The federal government has sent a lot of cold-warming materials and funds to the central and northern areas of Marillo. However, a large number of people fleeing have appeared on the border between the Federation and Marillo.

The climate in the north is becoming increasingly unsuitable. It is said that the temperature in the far north of Marillo is close to minus 70 degrees.

In January and February next year, the coldest time of the year, it may exceed minus 80 degrees. This is one of the coldest temperatures that humans have ever experienced in history.

Even now, the northern area of ​​Marillo is no longer suitable for human habitation. Even if there are heaters and fireplaces in the house, these things will slowly freeze!

Eventually even the fire in the fireplace will go out because it is too cold for the wood to continue burning!

For example, in some villages that were not evacuated, it has become common for everyone to freeze to death overnight.

The weather was too cold, and panic forced people to continue migrating southward as the cold current moved southward.

The border is full of refugees who are eager to enter the Federation through the border, and the work at checkpoints and border stations has become extremely busy.

Some meteorologists on TV say the planet is entering a major ice age, as it has experienced countless times.

Experts call on people not to be too worried, and the world will not be destroyed because of this. The existence of a wide range of species proves that the Great Ice Age will not cause mass extinction of species, and there will always be some species that survive.

As for whether humans had any chance of surviving and living comfortably, they said nothing.

How long the Great Ice Age would last, they didn't even say.

The temperature in Bupen has also dropped to 17 or 18 degrees below zero. In fact, judging from the current temperature, Bupen this year is not particularly cold.

Two years ago, it was already minus 20 degrees Celsius at this time. Some people think this is a good sign, but others think this is actually not a good thing.

At noon, at the dining table, Sierra and the middle-aged teacher talked to Lynch about some interesting things they encountered while traveling outside.

Sierra likes to travel and travel with the people she likes. She can’t find anything in Nell that can make her laugh, only helplessness, exhaustion, and sighs.

But that doesn't mean she doesn't love... She doesn't know if it's love. If it's true love, they won't be separated. Maybe it's not love, but the family affection that was born in advance after having no choice but to compromise.

But when she is with the middle-aged teacher, he will recite those beautiful poems, giving her a joy that is satisfied from the outside to the inside, from material to spiritual!

For rich people, spiritual happiness is the most important thing!

The middle-aged teacher is now much calmer and more natural when facing Lynch. He continues to cooperate with Sierra and help her fill in some details that she has missed.

There were not many intellectual and temperamental women in this era. Sera's temperament after transformation firmly attracted him. Even though she had her breasts and uterus removed, for him, he was obsessed with her soul, not her body.

Besides, the key organs still exist, and the union of spirit and body is the most wonderful thing.

Lynch kept nodding to accommodate. He would exclaim when they talked about encountering theft while traveling in a small country, and he would sigh when they described the magnificent nature.

The two traveled to many places this year. What surprised Lynch a little was that the middle-aged teacher insisted on continuing to work. He would use his vacation to travel around the world with Sera.

As Lynch's mother, Sierra has her own private jet.

Of course, this private jet nominally belongs to Lynch, but he just lent it to her. She doesn't even have the right to use it in the strict sense.

In fact, rich people have many ways to avoid the loss of wealth, but those who file property lawsuits for divorce and involve huge amounts of disputed property often have marriages that are not so clean from the beginning.

If you have a private jet, you can fly whenever you want.

"During the winter vacation, we plan to go to places further south in the Southern Continent. There are many areas there that still retain their original social features. He is very interested in these."

The middle-aged teacher pushed up his glasses and nodded, "Actually, we have also developed from the aboriginal stage. Maybe our ancestors figured out some problems earlier, so we are ahead in social development."

"But that doesn't mean we shouldn't admit that we were once just like them."

"Observing and studying these primitive social relationships will also help our future development."

"And the culture of some tribes is very interesting and wonderful, such as totem worship, gods, etc..."

Originally this was supposed to be a New Year's Eve dinner, but because everyone had something to do in the evening, it was postponed to noon.

Then Sierra took the initiative to ask Jenny. Jenny did a lot of research and research this year, and then started her business.

Lynch gave her the start-up capital to start her business, and now she has begun to implement it in detail.

"I've had a pretty fulfilling year this year, and the business of my first store was pretty good..."

With the booming economy, you can actually make money no matter what you do. This is the most intuitive view of people at this time.

Catering, clothing, factories, no matter what they do, they are making money!

Jenny opened a fast food restaurant. She did not blindly pursue any fashion brand.

She did some research and found out that almost all the successful fashion brands in the Federation were built with money. This was something that an ordinary girl like her could not afford.

But opening a fast food restaurant is not a problem at all for her.

A slightly better taste, the right ingredients, and a price that doesn't have to be so high can attract people.

The first store was quite successful, and now there are people queuing up every day. It’s cheap and tastes good. For people who need fast food, that’s all they ask for.

Jenny talked about some things about entrepreneurship, everyone listened patiently, and then it was Lynch's turn.

Lynch tilted his head and thought for a moment, "I'm doing pretty well this year."

No one said anything after waiting for a long time. Sierra couldn't help but laugh. The middle-aged man was a little confused, and Jenny asked, "That's it?"

Lynch had a "that's it" expression, as if asking what else could be done.

"My work is going very well, my business is going very well, and I've made countless billions. If you want to hear this, I can tell you a little bit, but I don't think it's necessary."

Sierra interrupted him and said to the father and daughter, "Don't embarrass him, his life is much boring than ours!"

After this meal, Serra and the middle-aged teacher will take a flight to Nagalir in the afternoon, and then transfer to a further south.

Jenny also needs to go to her store. There will be many new activities in the New Year. She learned a trick of "pre-sale" from Lynch.

She was planning to turn these into reality. She printed something called a "weekly pass". For the price of six copies, she could enjoy seven designated packages seven days a week.

It’s equivalent to buying six and getting one free, which is very attractive to many customers!

You know, most people who eat fast food are from the middle and lower classes in society. Getting a set meal for free is very attractive to them.

After lunch, Lynch sent Sera and the middle-aged teacher to the airport.

Watching the plane fly away, sometimes Lynch would think of Nell.

It's a pity that Nell died too early and did not enjoy the things he should have enjoyed.

When he returned to the city, Lin Qi took the opportunity to visit Nell's widow. The two children were much older, and they were still a little timid when they saw Lin Qi.

Nell's little wife, on the other hand, seemed to be doing much better.

Life in the Federation is very "nurturing", especially in a wealthy living environment.

She doesn't need to work, make money, or even solve household chores by herself.

The only thing that needs to be done every day is to take care of the two grown-up children, and then there is maintenance and entertainment.

Lynch sat down and chatted with them, chatting about academic issues and the life of the widow.

Finally, I left three checks before leaving.

It was only around four o'clock in the afternoon, and the sky was getting dark to the naked eye. By the time Lynch returned home, it was already completely dark.

Miriam was chatting with Petunia, and they were talking about things related to Her Majesty the Queen.

Her Majesty the Queen really wanted to spend the New Year in the Commonwealth, especially with Lynch, but the young earl refused her and strongly demanded that she must spend the New Year in the palace.

His Majesty the Emperor of a country is the nominal supreme ruler and the most noble person.

It is obviously very irresponsible to celebrate the New Year in another country instead of in the palace during this important moment of the New Year.

The young earl's career as prime minister in the past few years has also made him much more mature and steady, and he can think about problems more comprehensively and properly.

After Lynch returned home, the two stopped communicating, and the little maid and the little maid also brought the meals prepared for the evening.

It was a sumptuous dinner, after all, it was a Chinese New Year dinner. The lights and interlaced light and shadow in the room were just a microcosm of this society.

Countless families seem to be experiencing this moment, a sacred moment!

Just when everyone was about to use the knives and forks, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Who could it be at this time?

Lin Qi also became a little confused...
