Blackstone Code

The plan to build an underground complex around an active volcano should be the first plan proposed by experts from the Holy Peace Society, but this plan has a fatal flaw.

That is, no one can guarantee that when the planet deviates from its orbit, the underground magma can still ensure stability and long-term stability.

Once an uncontrollable accident occurs, it will be a disaster for people living in volcanic shelters.

Being suffocated and cooked in a can is already the best result. If magma is injected into it, not even the bones and dregs will be left.

A few years later, a new race of intelligent creatures will rise, which will be another unsolved mystery in prehistory.

But it is undeniable that this plan is very risky, but the effect is very good.

As long as the core of the planet does not cool down, it can always provide enough energy for the people in the shelter.

Even if the shallow magma gradually cools down, you can still dig deeper.

After hearing this, Catherine couldn't help but nod, "This is indeed a good idea. The only risk is that the magma is uncontrolled."

She paused for a moment, "What are you going to use to generate electricity for your shelter on the equator?"

"Geothermal resources are also used, but this use is within a safe range, and..."

Lynch smiled and said, "Human resources!"

"You're a politician and you know better than I do the dire consequences when a large group of residents sit idle, so we'll find them something to do."

"For example...human power generates electricity."

Manpower itself is a clean and environmentally friendly resource, and with little investment, the harvest is high.

Since ancient times, monarchs have gradually mastered the use of manpower. Various magnificent and miraculous ancient projects were built with the support of countless human resources.

In modern times, the utilization rate of manpower has reached a significant level, and manpower power generation projects are not a scarce thing.

Where the telephone was born, you had to move the handle on the phone case before you could make a call.

The fact that there is no need to shake the handle now is not a technological advancement, but the need for an external power cord and the fact that power is now supplied through telephone lines in some areas has solved this problem.

People may only notice the development and progress of science and technology, but ignore that people only need some simple tools to generate electricity.

Lynch consulted the chief engineer and found that if the most advanced hand-operated generator on the market continues to work at high intensity every day, one person can generate electricity up to two times a day.

Doesn’t it look very... inconspicuous? What can two kilowatt hours of electricity be enough for?

A two-kilowatt appliance can consume two kilowatt hours of electricity an hour, but the problem is that the equatorial shelter is designed to accommodate 200,000 people.

At least 150,000 of them belong to the "human resources" section. When selecting residents to enter the shelter, the elderly, weak, sick and disabled will be screened out to ensure that at least 150,000 residents are human resources at the peak of physical labor.

Assuming that 120,000 people can successfully generate electricity, then these 120,000 people can generate 240,000 kWh of electricity resources every day!

Shocked?

What’s even more shocking is yet to come!

In order to reduce the labor burden, the chief engineer has begun to design a pedal-type generator, just like the kind of bicycle-like generator.

The power generation efficiency of the muscles of the upper limbs is definitely not as good as that of the muscles of the lower limbs. The chief engineer calculated that each person can provide at least 4.5 degrees of electricity to the shelter every day.

With hundreds of thousands of kilowatt hours of electricity a day and the power limit policy, there is no shortage of electricity at all!

As soon as Lynch mentioned this idea to Catherine, Catherine couldn't help but roll her eyes, "You use them as slaves?"

Lynch obviously did not admit Catherine's statement, "No, I just gave each of them a job!"

"Once the end of the disaster arrives, each of us must shoulder the responsibility of continuing human civilization. They only contribute their own responsibilities and efforts to this great goal."

"And only by working can you get food and free space. Unless they are willing to go hungry, we will not force them to work!"

That being said, the actual situation may be much worse than this. Lynch has already prepared the points system in advance.

The points generated by power generation can not only be exchanged for different levels of shelter residents, but can also be directly exchanged for the "currency" of the shelter.

Moreover, corresponding points will be deducted for each different resident level in each cycle. Once the points are not enough to offset the deduction, they will be downgraded.

Different classes enjoy completely different things. Federal people hate class very much, but in the shelter, Lynch will make them fall in love with class and cannot live without class!

As long as they are unwilling to fall into the abyss, then they have to work hard to generate electricity for civilians...

After all, this is for the continuation of human civilization!

Catherine shook her head. She couldn't imagine what it would be like in a world where everyone generated electricity, with generators turning crazily in dark rooms to provide energy for city circuits.

The world of capitalists is so scary!

Soon the topic returned to the Federation, "We have been discussing recently whether we should stay or not."

If everyone——

This refers to the federal upper class and high-level politicians, such as the president, and congressmen. If they all go to the equator, this side will become full of variables.

Catherine and the members of Congress are very worried. They are worried that if they all leave, the plan here for so many years may completely collapse.

Once the social order collapses, a humanitarian disaster will soon occur. Natural disasters may not be needed. The problems that break out in the shelter are enough to wipe out the native humans in the Federation!

Lynch couldn't help but burst out laughing, "There are still so many years left, and it's not your turn to worry about these things. The congressmen behind you should be left to worry about this matter."

There are still more than ten or twenty years left. Catherine will definitely not be a member of Congress. Even if she becomes president, she will not be able to be re-elected for that long. At most, it will be another fourteen years - six years as a senator and eight years as president. .

In the end, the biggest trouble is left to the successor.

Catherine smiled and did not answer the question. She had been thinking about what she would choose if it were her.

Whether to face these disasters with the people of the Federation, or to go to Nagaril with Lynch.

She was a little hesitant, a little hesitant. She would not consider this issue before, but now she will, because she is standing at a high enough height.

The selfish side of human beings began to shrink relatively, while the great side began to expand.

However, the problem of human power generation can also be used in shelters on the federal mainland...

The two stopped discussing these serious topics and instead watched TV.

Penny came in the evening, and both women were quiet.

Penny knew from the beginning that she couldn't win against Catherine. It wasn't that she didn't want to fight, it was because she had tested Lynch and she knew very well that as long as she fought, Lynch would fall out.

Lynch doesn't seem to care about anything. You can spend his money, even if it is scattered on the street, he doesn't care.

You can also tease him and make jokes on him, and he will smile and tell you "it's okay", but you can't touch his bottom line.

Once he touches the bottom line and tries to cross it, his vicious side will show up.

Moreover, Catherine is now a senator in the federal Congress, the first female senator in federal history. The society highly recognizes her personal and achievements.

She has become an insurmountable peak in the federal women's equal rights movement, and she has become the brightest symbol in the feminist movement!

What could be more shocking than the first female senior politician?

So Penny was smart and resigned, and sat on the other end of the sofa.

"I haven't heard that you are shooting any new movies in Bupain recently. Is it some kind of secretly shot movie?"

Catherine found some topics to talk about. This woman was not a threat, so she didn't mind giving Penny a good look.

She has been fighting many female cousins ​​for Lynch since high school. She has mastered the winning techniques and mastered Lynch's mind.

Catherine’s question is very appropriate, because winter is getting colder and colder, and it is basically impossible to go out to work between January and March.

So work like film shooting that requires a lot of location work comes to a complete halt in the winter.

Summer has become the main filming season for movies. Once summer arrives, film crews in various cities will propose shooting plans, which require the cooperation of the local city hall.

There haven't been any big film crews stationed in Bupen recently, at least Catherine hasn't heard of them.

She is only thirty-five years old, the same age as Lynch, and is still somewhat interested in these things, entertainment news.

The only person who could make her feel a little threatened was Queen Feline, but that was only a threat.

Penny explained, "It's not a shooting plan, it's because the company has signed some new people with good conditions this year. I've been busy with this recently. I just have time today so I'll come over and take a look."

Catherine glanced at Lynch, who shook his head slightly. He did not tell Penny the truth about cooling down.

Ninety-nine percent of the people in this world don't know. Catherine is surprised because everyone around her knows, so she is surprised that Lynch didn't tell Petunia.

Penny also noticed the small gestures between the two, but pretended not to notice and acted very well-behaved.

Catherine smiled and stood up from the sofa, "Your business is getting bigger and bigger, and I often hear that your company has great potential."

She paused as she said, "Okay, I have a meeting tomorrow morning, so I'll go back first. You guys have fun."

She walked up to Lynch and bent down to kiss him, then waved to Penny and left.

After confirming that Catherine had really left, Penny moved to Lynch and asked, "Is there something I should know but I don't know yet that you may have forgotten to tell me?"
