The first thousand two hundred and sixty-two chapters of the town's past
"Okay, you just have to know what's going on."
Seeing that this girl had already made up her mind, Lin Cheng nodded and had no intention of persuading her. Everyone has their own ideas. For someone like him who has not been accompanied by his parents since he was a child, the word "parents" is far away from him.
Although he also felt family affection from Aunt Qin, it was not enough to make him lose his mind and make some unbelievable decisions.
But for Daisy, who was raised by her parents as the apple of their eyes since she was a child, her parents are everything to her. Although she has matured a lot in the more than a year of experience in the apocalypse, to her, her parents are still the ones in her heart.
It’s a difficult hurdle to overcome, so it’s not surprising that he would make this decision.
Moreover, although this girl has decided to stay in the town and use her own way to accompany her parents, she has not lost her mind because of it. Lin Cheng thinks she is a good partner, so he keeps giving her another chance. She also always remembers Lin Cheng and the others.
It was good for me, so even though I missed my parents very much, I still decided to help Lin Cheng finish the things here first.
Lighting a cigarette again, Lin Cheng leaned back slightly, lying on the sofa in a more comfortable position, and asked Daisy: "I remember talking to Amanda about this building when we were in the underground base.
This small town, she told me that it had been taken over by government troops a long time ago, do you know this?"
"of course I know."
Nodding, Daisy frowned and recalled carefully before replying: "About a year...no, more than a year before the end of the world, the small town of Novi was already occupied by troops sent by the government.
It was completely taken over! The explanation given by the government at the time was that a secret that could shock the whole world was discovered near the town. Of course, this so-called secret was exposed not long after, and it was the world-famous 'doomsday sinkhole'
!Speaking of it, this 'doomsday sinkhole' was first discovered by the residents of Novi Town. When it was first reported, it did not attract much attention. Then more than a year later, somehow this place
The tiankeng suddenly attracted attention, and the government even sent troops to block the news. In the end, the news spread like wildfire, so for safety reasons, the government could only block the area around the tiankeng and within the town of Novi.
All are blocked, and anyone entering or exiting needs to be subject to strict inspection! In fact, the blockade was not very strong at the beginning. Some people with connections could easily sneak into the town, and then after finding out the location of the sinkhole, they searched all the way.
After passing through, it seems that there were several accidents at the sinkhole, and the blockade suddenly became much stronger, making it difficult for ordinary people to sneak into the town, let alone get close to the sinkhole."
"kindness……"
Listening to Daisy's detailed explanation, Lin Cheng kept nodding. Daisy was indeed a local here. She talked about these things in much more detail than the old man Fang and Amanda. But there was one thing he didn't understand, so
Asked: "Since this town was taken over by government troops more than a year before the end of the world, how were the residents in the town arranged?"
Hearing Lin Cheng's question, Daisy shrugged and said: "How else can we arrange it? It will be whatever it was before. In fact, the residents of the town were not used to it at the beginning. We who live in the town are not used to it.
More than 90% of the residents are Nenets, and the Nenets have been a famous nomadic people since ancient times. At their peak, the length of their annual nomadic journeys was almost the longest in the world. In ancient times, they did not even have a fixed residence.
None. Although I now have a fixed residence in the small town of Novi, the blood yearning for freedom in my body has never solidified. How can I get used to living under the noses of a group of well-trained soldiers every day? But as I get along with these soldiers,
As time went by, the residents discovered that apart from the military uniforms they wore, most of the soldiers were actually very friendly towards us. Even after the troops were stationed, the already low crime rate in the town dropped directly to 0!
Apart from the fact that the town needed to be inspected by soldiers, the daily life of the townspeople was almost completely unaffected by the impact of the soldiers. On the contrary, due to the increase in daily needs of scientists from many countries who came here to conduct research, there was not much other than hunting.
The income of residents with extra income has also increased with the tide. As long as these big people living in the town are well taken care of, one month's income can equal the total income of one year or even two years! As time goes by, most of the townspeople have already
I am used to the existence of these soldiers and scientists, and I am always worried that one day they will suddenly leave..."
"...Well, money has always moved people's hearts since ancient times!"
Hearing this, Lin Cheng didn't know what to say. In fact, it made sense if he thought about it carefully. Although the small town of Novi is geographically remote, the residents here are not barbarians who live in ancient times. For example, Daisy's father
As a Nenets native born and raised in the small town of Novi, didn't he later travel across the ocean to study like most young people?
Although the arrival of the army and scientists from all over the world has brought some inconvenience to the residents of the small town of Novi, it has also brought ubiquitous business opportunities. If you can just sit back and make money, why bother?
Why bother to drive the people away (the key point is that they can't be driven away), and then continue to work hard to hunt wild beasts in the cold snowfield to survive?
Smiling, Lin Cheng flicked the ashes of his cigarette. As the conversation between the two deepened, his cigarette was almost burned out without even taking a few puffs. After taking the last puff of the cigarette into his lungs, Lin Cheng continued to ask
: "What about your father? It's understandable for other residents to stay here just to make more money, but your father is extremely rich, so why are you willing to stay in this small town with inconvenient transportation?"
"It's very simple. On the first day when the army was stationed, local officials and military officers came to visit my father in person..."
Lin Cheng had a lot of questions, but Daisy didn't have any impatience. She knew that when she got here, the other party would definitely have a lot of questions to ask her. Coupled with her observation of Lin Cheng in the past few days, she knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime situation.
People with obsessive-compulsive disorder will not miss the slightest detail when they are serious. For patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder, instead of procrastinating and causing conflicts, it is better to follow the other person's topic and honestly tell everything they know, "according to
According to those officials, our family only needs to continue living according to the previous rhythm in the town, and we will never feel any changes, and we will not be interrogated by the soldiers in the town, including my father’s mine outside the town.
The market will not be affected in any way! A simple summary is that everything that happens in the town will not affect our family, and our family should not affect the original stable income generation of the local area..."
