Magic Punk
Chapter 69 City of Miracles
Xuan Yi put the other things he bought into his backpack first, frowning slightly.
But Jiu San will never make any demands that cannot be fulfilled, so there must be a way to obtain this truffle, and Jiu San believes that he will definitely be able to get it, so there is no need for additional instructions.
He has a total of ten hours of activity. In fact, this time will only be shorter and not longer. The extent of the shortening will be determined by how quickly they discover Xinghedu's death.
It took me more than thirty minutes to write a letter to my sister to report that she was safe, more than two hours to send Lan Liuyan's remains due to the journey, and more than three hours to purchase these visiting gifts, and the truffles were not yet there. It was finally done, which made Xuan Yi a little annoyed.
If he had enough ten hours, he could take the rail train to the mainland's largest truffle producing area in three hours. After buying it, it would take three hours to come back. Ten hours would be enough, but all this work would be packed into his head. Within these ten hours, it is almost impossible to do anything.
Xuan Yi walked on the streets of Star City. Dark Star's uniform kept everyone silently one meter away from him. Although Star City is located near the sea, its latitude is relatively low. It is June again, and the whole city is still as sultry as a huge steamer. , Xuan Yi did not have the ability of Lan Zhusheng. The continuous running around made his whole body almost soaked with sweat. This was not a combat uniform that could channel sweat. While he was feeling unwell, his mood also became slightly depressed.
At this moment, Xuan Yi looked up and saw a large advertisement, and his eyes lit up.
“The Ministry of Industry’s exclusive latest invention, the latest motorcycle that can travel 700 kilometers continuously with a standard spar, you deserve it!”
How could I forget this black technology?
Xuan Yi shook his head mockingly.
…
…
Once you find a way to solve the problem, the rest will be much simpler.
Although in terms of talent and technology reserves, ANBU's Science and Technology Department is ranked first in the world in terms of scientific and technological capabilities, but after all, it is a specialized department that focuses on the research of weapons and combat equipment. If you really want to find all-encompassing black technology, you will eventually have to Relying on the Ministry of Industry Yu Heng Qing Li Division.
Before the rise of the first magic industrial revolution, which was caused independently by Emperor Tianwu and the Nine Princesses but came together in the same vein, Yu Heng's Qing Li Department was just an ordinary department that supervised the minting of coins and manufactured official utensils. However, with the magic industry The wave of revolution gradually spread to the entire world. The official manufacturing department of Yu Heng's Qing Li Department gradually expanded into the Ministry of Works, and even the department with the greatest authority among the six ministries. The successive governors of the Ministry of Industry basically took the position of director of Yu Heng's Qing Li Department. Climbed up.
Today, Yu Heng's Qingli Division is almost equivalent to the Ministry of Industry. It is in charge of almost all aspects of work such as research and development, design, manufacturing, etc. It has countless giant-level super companies under it, with great power and huge profits. The word "Qing official" is becoming more and more unworthy of its name.
As for why he wanted to find Yu Heng Qing Li Si, if Xuan Yi remembered correctly, they had been promoting the progress of artificially cultivating rare ingredients before coming in. As for the latest breakthrough recently.
That’s right, truffles.
…
…
If you are an ordinary person, it would be extremely difficult to enter Yu Hengqing's official department and steal their scientific research products, and you may lose your life 80% of the time. But if you add Anbu's tiger skin, everything is not that difficult.
Although in theory, it is the responsibility of the Ministry of Punishment to supervise the Six Ministries, this is only in theory.
Due to the existence of ANBU, the entire star city is under the shadow of ANBU. No matter how high-ranking you are in your own department, as long as you are not the governor of the first department, any ANBU commissioner who comes to drink tea with you will have to be your own heart first. Tremble a few times.
After another round of coaxing, intimidation, and inducements, Xuan Yi has been an ANBU commissioner for so long, so he is naturally familiar with this kind of job. Of course, it is all thanks to his wig and contact lenses, otherwise he would look like a pariah when he goes out. It is said that he is just a specialist of the Executive Department, and even the Director of the Executive Department is not easy to use.
In Star City, bloodline is actually the most important passport.
In short, Xuan Yi spent 15,000 stars to buy fresh black truffles that were just picked and still stained with soil. According to the other party, the cost of these three kilograms of black truffles was more than 20 million stars.
But what does this have to do with Xuan Yi? Anyway, as long as he knows that the market price of a pound of black truffles is only 4,000 stars, no one will spend 20 million stars to buy a mere three pounds of black truffles that cannot be called top quality unless others are crazy. Black truffle.
After finally buying the four delicacies mentioned by Jiu San, Xuan Yi first took the subway, then rented an express carriage, and finally arrived at the so-called Dou Li Lane.
Jiu San never told Xuan Yi where he lived, just as Xuan Yi never told Jiu San that he lived in a small wooden house on the outskirts of the city.
The only difference is that Xuan Yi really doesn't know that Jiu San lives here, but Jiu San knows where Xuan Yi lives and even knows Xing Lihua's name.
But Xuan Yi has heard of the name Dou Li Lane and has been here many times.
Because it is on the edge of the largest slum in Star City, almost at the junction of civilization and barbarism.
Slums are a festering wound in the city. Star City, which now has a permanent population of more than 10 million, has expanded many times based on the old city a thousand years ago, but it is still unable to accommodate such a huge population. Moreover, the truly dominant pure city has No one from the Blood Star City clan has crossed the million mark so far.
In other words - Star City is a city with only one million people, and the others are just cattle and slaves.
The various factories scattered around the edge of Star City are filled with such free slaves, using their flesh and blood to extract endless wealth and all kinds of luxuries for the nobles to enjoy.
But even among slaves, there are gaps.
The best slaves can spend all their money in a prosperous area near the city center, or rent or buy a luxurious property that can be used for several generations. The middle-class slaves can get a loan from a bank, carrying a heavy burden that may not last their entire life. Pay off the debt in exchange for a small brick and cement box to house your humble family.
As for the lower-class slaves, they can only linger on the edge of the slums, between shacks and low-rent housing, depending on their current income level. They work hard all their lives, but they can only die in poverty and loneliness, leaving their children Continue the same reincarnation as him.
Under the slaves, there is the class of untouchables.
That is, the untouchable.
Most of them live in slums, and because of their lowly origins, they cannot do any decent work. They are responsible for dirty and despicable tasks such as cleaning and disposing of garbage, hauling excrement, and collecting corpses, and even such work is not allowed. It takes a lot of fighting to get it. After all, getting a job means getting food.
In Xuan Yi's view, they were worse than the most despicable walking dead. They only knew a muddy life, struggling in the mud and dying in the mud.
Although Xuan Yi didn't know his origin, he probably came from here. After being collected by Dark Star, he was slowly trained and made into a useful humanoid weapon.
While he was thinking this, the young man had already arrived at the door of No. 307 Dou Li Lane. He crossed over the pool of sewage in front of the door and gently knocked on the wooden door that was almost decaying and falling apart.
No one answered.
Only the breath of death is left, slowly filling the air.
If you are friends on the APP, I have added information such as the height, weight, birthday, and age of the characters in the character introduction at the end of the article. If you are interested, you can take a look.
Of course, it is not convenient for some people to write their age, such as Miss Lin Wei, and it is not convenient for some people to write their birthday, such as classmate Xuan Yi.
