Chapter 582: Fortune and misfortune depend on each other
Lucia.
Kremlin palace.
Pine wood was burning in the fireplace, and Caesar, who was already extremely old, was warming himself by the fire while reading recent briefings.
He was so tired. Not only was he exhausted physically, but he also felt helpless in his heart.
"Andreev."
"Caesar, please give me your orders." Andreev, the captain of the guard, stepped forward respectfully.
"Let Carl from the Fresh Belia Institute of Biology come over!" There was a vicissitude and weakness in his voice that was difficult to conceal. He was just like Lucia at this time, full of twilight.
"Yes." Andreev nodded.
After a while, Karl, the head of the Fresh Belia Biological Research Institute, appeared in the study.
"Caesar, Urla!"
Caesar waved his hand: "Okay, Karl, let's talk about the business!"
Karl took a deep breath: "Caesar, we have obtained some samples of super monkeypox through the channels of the Europa Consortium and are currently studying them."
Caesar gently rubbed his temples to relieve his dizziness.
Karl continued: "Although no vaccine or specific medicine has been developed, I have discovered some useful things by looking at the breeding conditions of super monkeypox."
"Oh?" Caesar's eyes were full of expectation.
"The first discovery is that super monkeypox has some special intermediate hosts, such as fleas, cockroaches, and cyanobacteria. This is the fundamental reason why they can spread across the sea."
"But this discovery is not important. After all, we cannot exterminate fleas, cockroaches and cyanobacteria in nature. Perhaps those safe houses that defend the Homo sapiens company can effectively block the penetration of super monkeypox."
Caesar shook his head: "There are too few safe houses. Even if we use the nuclear bunkers left over from the last century, our safe zone can only accommodate 2 to 3 million people at most."
Karl hesitated for a moment, then expressed some opinions: "Actually, super monkeypox is not invincible. As long as we adopt safe house standards and fully disinfect tap water and non-packaged food, we should be able to prevent it."
"Alas!...I know, but how to solve the problem of funds?" It's difficult for Caesar too!
Lucia has a lot of resources, but its industry has declined horribly. Even heavy industries with strong foundations have become unsustainable at this time.
He felt extremely sad and seemed to be going to his uncle's house for help again.
If possible, Caesar really doesn't want to go, but now he has no other choice.
Karl did not see the pain in Caesar's heart, and continued to withdraw and put forward other ideas: "Caesar, our climate is actually very conducive to stopping the spread of super monkeypox."
"Temperature?" Caesar thought.
"Yes, when the temperature is below 5 degrees Celsius, insects such as cockroaches and fleas will basically not move. Moreover, the suitable breeding temperature for super monkeypox is 20 to 37 degrees Celsius. Most areas in our territory are covered with ice and snow for a long time, especially near the Arctic.
Circled area.”
Caesar turned his head and ordered: "Andreev, ask Tatiana to come and see me."
Taking advantage of this gap, Caesar continued to discuss the details with Karl.
About forty minutes later, Tatiana hurried over and walked into the study.
"Tatiana, if we restart the northern city, can we survive?" Caesar asked directly.
"Restart the northern city?" Tatyana frowned. The department she was responsible for was the newly established Department of Ecological Production. Its main job was to study how to maintain normal agricultural and industrial production in extreme weather.
In order to cope with the increasingly long freezing period, many cities in northern Lucia have been canceled and moved south.
Now Caesar asked again if she could restart the northern city. She was caught off guard by the question, but Tatiana soon reacted because she recognized Karl's identity.
"Is it because of the threat of super monkeypox?" Tatiana asked.
Caesar nodded: "You are right. Super monkeypox cannot spread in areas with temperatures below 5 degrees Celsius. Now the northern cities are frozen all year round. If we can restart the northern cities, we can use low temperatures to stop super monkeypox.
of invasion.”
Hearing this idea, Tatiana also fell into deep thought.
If we want to restart northern cities now, there is still time. After all, some cities have only been abandoned for less than a year or two.
The problem is how to solve the problem of food and food? This flaw made Tatyana fall into deep thought.
Then heads of other departments also arrived one after another.
Although these guys had their own hidden agendas, when faced with the unreasonable super monkeypox, they put aside the idea of fighting among themselves and discussed how to deal with it.
In fact, they have held similar meetings no less than 10 times, but each time there was no good plan.
At this point Caesar finally made up his mind.
Because time waits for no one, once the cold winter passes, it means that super monkeypox will arrive in Lucia with spring.
Caesar said in a low voice: "Our only choice is to move the population north of 60 degrees north latitude before spring comes. Even in summer, the temperature there is below 5 degrees Celsius. The farther north, the safer it is."
"But what about the food?"
"There is only one way to form a department specializing in the production of food and agricultural products, and then adopt militarized management and let these people wear special protective clothing to carry out agricultural production in the warm southern regions."
"We can use the northern part as an industrial zone, and greenhouse agriculture must also be gradually promoted."
"I have an idea. Large cities that are too densely populated are too dangerous, and the pressure on material supply is too great. If a full-scale migration to the north is carried out, I suggest dispersed resettlement..."
At this moment, they finally stopped arguing and instead brainstormed and made plans.
After all, if they continue to wait and see, once super monkeypox kills them, the consequences will be disastrous. They don't want to be pockmarked and impotent. If they really become pockmarked and impotent, they would rather die.
Although the north is covered with ice and snow all year round and will get colder in the future, the cold is also a natural barrier.
Even if the conditions are a little more difficult, it is still better than having a pockmarked face, impotence, or sterilization.
What's more, they are even more worried about America now. After all, America is extremely chaotic inside, with all the forces fighting each other.
And with so many biological laboratories in America, who knows how many terrifying microorganisms there are.
If something terrible is leaked again.
The warm areas in the middle and low latitudes will definitely bear the brunt.
Caesar doesn't want to be worried all day long. If he moves to the north, he can use the low temperature as a barrier to prevent microorganisms from entering.
After all, no matter how terrifying the infectivity of microorganisms is, they are still living things. When living things encounter ultra-low temperatures, their activity and reproduction will be inhibited.
As for the harsh climate in the northern region, it is not a big deal for Lucia, who has mastered the nuclear fusion technology of the earth furnace. She can completely rely on the energy of the nuclear fusion power station to withstand the ultra-low temperatures of the Ice Age.
As long as you live, there is hope.
If everyone dies, then everything is meaningless.
Therefore, Caesar and Lucia's management decided to quickly restart the northern city and transport all food to the north for storage to deal with possible biochemical crises in the future.
The cold climate saved Lucia again.
Of course, in order to ensure that the northward migration plan could proceed smoothly, Caesar shamelessly went to his uncle for help.
