"Damn it, is this a new building brought by Qianhuan Mist?"
"This wall is really fake. Why does it look so out of place?"
"It's so strange. I'm sure there weren't any of these things here yesterday."
"You're not talking nonsense, and I'm not blind. Besides, it's construction. How can it be completed in one night?"
"Did you see a ghost?" The apocalyptic madman pinched himself.
Until now, he was still a little confused and couldn't believe the changes before his eyes.
The previous research institute may sound a little scary, but in fact it was just four bungalows made of semi-finished concrete. Even to use the toilet, you had to go out and find a place by yourself.
If it weren't for the few instruments brought from the base to support the facade, this place would definitely have nothing to do with "research".
But now.
Nearly fifteen acres of ice, snow and frozen soil were leveled.
As soon as I entered, there was a nearly 20-meter-long welcoming tree path.
An extremely neat defensive wall built just over two meters tall.
There is also an iron door with a thick front and a lookout window.
these facilities
Spicy Iron Hammer also pinched himself. Although he grimaced in pain, he moved forward involuntarily.
Although I don't know what happened specifically, compared with the previous research institute, it is undoubtedly much better now.
Could it be that Professor Lu has developed something new, or has Professor Ai made a new mechanical invention that can automatically build infrastructure in batches?
With this idea in mind, the two of them walked all the way to the observation window in front of the iron door and looked in along the gap.
Sure enough, at this time, the research institute surrounded in the middle also underwent certain changes.
First of all, the four ordinary semi-finished bungalows are no longer independent houses in the style of courtyard houses.
I don’t know what happened, but now the four houses are connected together by concrete brick walls, roughly forming a "U"-shaped layout.
There was no glass before, and there was only a ventilation area with a simple iron plate to block the wind. Now it is also equipped with bright hinged glass windows.
The uneven surface of the brick wall and the fingerprints left by the mortar that had not dried completely disappeared. The wall was painted with clean and bright light blue paint, and two drainage holes were cut out on the roof.
The central courtyard, which turns into a swimming pool when it rains, now has two concrete drainage channels leading to the gate.
"You said that a regular construction team of a thousand people came here from the earth last night. I don't believe that it can be like this." Mala Tie Hammer's eyes went straight.
Although the current research institutes are still not as beautiful as those on earth, with a strong scientific research atmosphere.
But if you can master this technology that is beyond comprehension.
Then you still have to worry about infrastructure!?
Even if you want to restore the basic industry of the territory, as long as you can do this once or twice, then you still worry about not being able to develop it?
"Speaking of which, we are squatting at the door like thieves. How are we going to get in?"
"Knock on the door? Call Professor Lu?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the research institute opened.
Lu Kuan, wearing a worn-out bomber jacket, walked out.
Behind him, Ai Jianfeng, who was more afraid of the cold and wrapped like a bear, also followed. The two of them looked around, with an inexplicable confusion in their eyes.
"Professor Lu, it's me, Zhuang Lun!"
The doomsday madman slammed the door excitedly and shouted vaguely:
"I thought an alien race broke in. How did our research institute become like this?"
The air became quiet for a moment.
Lu Kuan looked over, and the two looked at each other through the crack in the door.
"It's Xiaozhuang. I don't know about this either."
Lu Kuan opened the padlock behind the iron door and rubbed his chicken coop-like hair.
"Professor Ai and I were still sleeping when we suddenly felt vibrations under our bodies. When we got up, the place looked like this."
"Just now?" Spicy Iron Hammer continued: "Professor Lu, not only has our institute changed, but also the surrounding areas of the institute have changed. The land has been leveled, and there are two rows of trees transplanted from who knows where.
road"
"Right over there!"
"Has the outside also changed?" Ai Jianfeng's face changed slightly.
Although Zhuang Lun and Shu Yao have somewhat out-of-touch personalities, they will never tell lies on this matter.
After walking out of the gate, the four people walked around in a circle.
When I returned to the yard, an indescribable sense of absurdity came over me.
"Come in and take a look."
Lu Kuan pushed open the door of the research institute and several people entered inside.
Compared to before, earth-shaking changes have taken place here.
The former cement floor is now covered with clean white tile floors, and the refracted light creates a dazzling light.
The gray walls covered with rags were also painted white, and there was a faint and elegant bamboo fragrance.
The layout of the interior of the room has not changed, but the passage connecting the four rooms gives the institute a sense of technology.
After walking all the way from beginning to end, I returned to the first studio and sat down.
Looking through the clean windows on the wall, the mist lingering in the yard is so clear now.
"Fuck."
The doomsday madman broke the silence.
"Isn't it really a change caused by the disaster?"
"The research institute is not shrouded in gray fog, so the possibility of disaster impact is very low." Spicy Iron Hammer denied.
Then, he looked at Lu Kuan: "Professor Lu, have you seen something like this happen before?"
"I have never seen or heard of such a technology that can change the world. It can even allow the two of us to do all this without even noticing."
Lu Kuan shook his head slightly, but a figure couldn't help but flash in his mind.
After receiving a second life, many times when he came to the territory, he was not isolated from the world and immersed in research.
While going to the village to select suitable candidates, he also heard many new "stories".
Just like on the seventh day after advent, when everyone was still living in wooden houses and shabby caves.
Soma already had a solid stone shelter.
Another example is the Hope, which later became famous in the wasteland. Its appearance was actually accomplished by one person.
"Since it is a good change, I think there is no need to be so panicked. We can investigate the reason in private first."
"But it just so happens that the research institute couldn't expand its scale before. I thought that after a while, when the scale expands a bit, I will let you come in to help. Now that it is like this, you..."
Maybe because he has been through the gate of hell, Ai Jianfeng can see clearly.
But when he was still waiting for him to finish speaking, he saw both Doomsday Madman and Spicy Iron Hammer in a daze.
With this look, he is obviously looking at the game panel.
After about a minute or so, the doomsday madman came to his senses first, with an obvious look of astonishment in his eyes.
"what happens?"
"Territory. Professor Lu, the village chief and all the village management have issued a new announcement. Our territory's system is suddenly going to be reformed."
"Reform?" Lu Kuan was a little confused.
He is a researcher, and even managing a laboratory sometimes finds it troublesome.
For a territory with more than 10,000 people, this kind of thing has obviously exceeded the upper limit of his understanding.
"Two professors, I'm afraid I can't continue my research with you."
Spicy Iron Hammer also finished reading the announcement, but when he opened his mouth, the doomsday madman next to him was completely shocked.
Crazy?
Didn't the two of them come here to mine just to sneak into the research institute and make some achievements?
Now that the opportunity is on your lips, do you want to give up?
"What's the reason?"
"The village has officially issued currency, replacing all previous benefits with currency that can be circulated! Moreover, the village is now in urgent need of developing basic industries. It is no longer a common ownership system, but has become a new contracting system. As long as you choose to contract, you can pass it.
After the assessment, you will immediately receive a large amount of starting capital to hire villagers to work."
What Spicy Iron Hammer said was a little vague. Lu Kuan and Ai Jianfeng didn't understand it yet, but the doomsday madman next to them who also read the announcement immediately reacted.
"As someone who studied heavy engineering, you wouldn't want to be a factory director now, would you? Are you crazy?"
"I'm afraid you have completely forgotten the principles of those basic industries. How many reliable results can you produce by relying on your own exploration?"
"It's hard to say, but didn't the lord say that as long as it can pass the review, the village will provide a full set of scientific research materials. If I can't make this thing, then it's useless to do research."
"Provide information? Huh? Do you have it?"
The doomsday madman was stunned, turned around and quickly opened the game panel to check the announcement.
Sure enough, there was such a tempting condition in the comment he just ignored.
"Ah this."
Closing the panel, the doomsday madman smiled awkwardly.
But the next second, his body was extremely honest: "Two professors, since the village wants to develop industry, we can't help much if we stay here for a short time, otherwise"
"It's okay, go ahead and do it. It will help relieve some of the pressure on the research institute."
Sighed.
Lu Kuan waved his hand and suddenly remembered the information he and others had compiled by themselves.
Before, he was still wondering how Sumo would find the right person and distribute the information.
Now, he finally understands.
Good guy.
It’s really just a straight hook and the bait is salty!
Territory group chat channel.
Yesterday, Sumo personally issued the first announcement of the territory, which was promoted to the 68,000th floor one after another. In just a few minutes, it was promoted to the second.
Now, sitting at the top of the list with more than 100,000 replies, is a new announcement jointly issued by more than 40 managers.
"Tianyuan Territory-Hope Village Version 2.0 Reform Plan"
This announcement has been brewing for a long time and looks like a game version update.
The moment it appeared, it aroused the enthusiasm of all the villagers.

【twelve.】
The reform that had been prepared for a long time finally came belatedly through the announcement function.
There are many supplementary contents for specific rules.
But like most clauses that only require a click of consent, these long and stinky supplementary explanations are basically explanations of the first nine articles, and their purpose is only to prepare for stricter enforcement in the future.
However, in the notes at the bottom, there are a few things that are easily overlooked.
[Note 1: All the above-mentioned public places have not yet been fully constructed and will be launched one after another in the next thirty natural days. All residents are asked to wait patiently.]
[Note 4: When the production site is constructed by the lord, the rating will be given based on personal ability. If the rating is passed, you can go to the underground shelter and obtain a full set of production materials personally issued by the lord.

[Note 8: The territory does not have a banking system for the time being. After all players obtain currency, if they have storage needs, they can go to the "Public Warehouse" to register and store it. 】
[Note 11: There are currently two methods for contracting open agricultural land. First: By paying the full amount of currency, you can obtain the right to use cultivated land within a certain period, and you can plant other plants at will that do not damage the fertility of the land in large quantities. Second:
Pay a small amount of currency and share the land output with the territory. At the same time, there is a limit on the yield per mu. If the harvest is lower than the limit, the corresponding fine cannot be paid, and the territory will confiscate all output and be included in the blacklist.]
