From black technology to super engineering - #820 - Chapter 817 Traveling Around the Wood

In the VIP cabin of the “World View” series tourist ship, Yang Wenzhi faced the porthole with his back to the porthole. He put his left hand around his wife’s waist and his right hand on his daughter’s shoulder. He gave a somewhat serious expression to the robot butler in front of him. Smile.

“1, 2, 3! Eggplant!”

Following the machine steward’s prompts, a picture lowered from the ceiling, instantly showing a photo of the three of them.

“Dad, it’s too serious, here’s another one.”

“Okay, here’s another one.” Yang Wenzhi rubbed the top of his daughter’s head dotingly, and his smile became more obvious.

Obviously, in the eyes of his daughter, his expression was still a bit serious.

Fortunately, his wife came to his rescue: “Tiantian, your dad is a general now. He must maintain his dignity at all times, so don’t embarrass him.”

The daughter immediately raised her head and looked at Yang Wenzhi: “Dad, is that so?”

“Your mother is talking nonsense.” Yang Wenzhi smiled slightly and carefully arranged his daughter’s hair. Then he walked towards the machine butler, reached for the camera and faced the two of them: “Stand down, you guys, I’ll take a picture for you.”

“Then let me compare my feelings with my mother!”

“Well…but wait until you see Jupiter’s Great Red Spot.”

…

After finally waiting for the spacecraft to pass by Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, Yang Wenzhi successfully took a nearly perfect photo of his wife and daughter. Then, he returned to the bedroom, turned on the computer and started browsing the internal briefing.

Since the end of the war, he was the former enemy commander and the fleet commander of the First Group, so it was not until nearly seven or eight months that it was finally his turn to rest.

And in the blink of an eye, it is already 2040.

If it starts from 2033, when he sets foot on the moon for training at the combat center, seven years have passed.

Seven years!

In the past seven years, my daughter has advanced from preschool to junior high school, and has grown into a big girl—standing with her mother, and even taller than her mother.

During this period, he spent most of his time on the battleship and on the front line. Although communications are now developed, he can see his daughter via video every day, and the holographic projection is also immersive enough, so that he will not be said to have “missed” his daughter’s growth. But the days when a family of three really get together like this are still very few.

Taking a two-month long vacation like this is even more wishful thinking.

Therefore, within the past two months, he took his wife and daughter on a quick trip around the world that lasted for one and a half months. In the last half month, at his daughter’s strong request, he boarded the “World View” to come here. A half-month “tour around the woods”.

The itinerary is arranged to start from the earth, arrive at the moon first, and then continue to fly along the route to Mars after a tour on the moon. Since the tourism development of Mars has not yet been fully developed and it is quite homogeneous with the moon, the voyage will directly bypass it. Mars, heading straight to Jupiter, begins a three-day journey around Jupiter.

Well… the essence… is actually similar to the original cruise ship on earth. Seeing the space scenery is secondary. The main fun is during the journey, on the spaceship.

Therefore, the interior facilities of World View are quite luxurious, and its configuration is better than that of luxury cruise ships at sea. It has all the rides you can think of and everything you can’t imagine.

For example, immersive space battle simulation, alien survival simulation, holographic universe travel, etc.

It’s just… Yang Wenzhi is here to spend time with his wife and children, and he has no interest in experiencing these projects.

His vacation is about to end and he will return to Aila.

Although he is the person in charge of the fleet, many things there still have to go through the fleet, so he must have a grasp of the overall situation on Ella.

At this time, his wife Cao Yuxin pushed open the door and walked in: “Lao Yang.”

Yang Wenzhi looked back at his wife and saw that his daughter was not following him. He stood up and glanced sideways: “Where’s Tiantian?”

“Oh, she’s out participating in a fleet confrontation simulation.”

Yang Wenzhi was startled and laughed: “Why didn’t she ask me to go?”

“How dare she call you?” Cao Yuxin gave him an angry look and walked slowly to his side: “You say every day that the simulated battleship battle is nonsense, and you always ruin her fun.”

“Yeah, that’s right.” Yang Wenzhi paused and immediately said: “She won’t accidentally announce her family name, right?”

“Are you questioning my tutor?”

“Hahaha… I can trust Teacher Cao’s tutoring!” Yang Wenzhi hugged his wife and laughed: “How about… take advantage of this opportunity?”

“…” His wife did not struggle in his arms, but looked at him with a half-smile: “Lao Yang, are you sure?”

“What? Relatives are here?”

“It’s because the relatives didn’t come.” The wife gently put her hand on her lower abdomen and glanced down: “It seems that she was shot.”

Yang Wenzhi was stunned for a moment, then laughed wildly, hugged his wife and spun her around.

…

Yang Wenzhi was still staring at his wife with joy at the sudden good news until five minutes later.

Cao Yuxin shook her head and sat helplessly on the edge of the bed. Her eyes fell on the monitor in front of her. She just glanced at her and looked away: “There are still ten days before the holiday is collected. Are you ready to go to work now?”

“No, it’s mainly because I’m used to it.” Yang Wenzhi sat opposite his wife, took her hand and put it on his knee. He breathed softly and hesitated again: “How about… you apply to join the army? It’s convenient for me. Take care of you nearby.”

“…Do you have any knowledge?” Teacher Cao rolled his eyes at her husband: “Where should I live with you? On Ella? Or on an aircraft carrier – when it comes to aircraft carriers, I feel like complaining. Your aircraft carrier is not even connected to this sightseeing ship. It’s not even as good as that…”

“Haha, how can combat weapons be compared with leisure ships? Aren’t the Navy’s aircraft carriers not as good as cruise ships?”

“Yeah, so you think you’re taking care of me? Besides, with Sita at home, it’s your turn to take care of others. It’s okay if I don’t come to take care of you.”

Yang Wenzhi coughed and stopped trying to quibble.

As the head of the former enemy headquarters, his status and income are enough to support his wife and daughter to live a life without worries about food and clothing at home…

Well… to describe it as having no worries about food and clothing may be a bit too quaint to describe it. To be precise, it means that the wife and daughter can live a life that meets their dreams.

My wife is a teacher, and her biggest dream is to teach and educate people, and then travel around during various holidays, while my daughter is obsessed with various model airplanes, and is also keen on guns and battleships like a boy…

Probably, this is heredity.

Now, as the earth’s civilization gradually enters the pinnacle of the second-level civilization – although in some fields, human beings have touched the threshold of the fourth-level civilization, on the whole, human beings are still a second-level civilization in the final analysis.

There is no way, the realization of any technology and the popularization of creations take time. Even if humans have fully automated, self-replicating smart factories, they still cannot complete the absorption and utilization of various resources in a short time.

Looking back on the past twenty years, and comparing it to the previous hundreds and thousands of years… the speed of development has exceeded everyone’s imagination.

——In 2020, do you dare to imagine that one day you can take a tourist spacecraft to orbit Jupiter?

But no matter what, the affluence index of human beings, especially domestic… has far exceeded imagination.

If we use traditional GDP to describe it, the country’s per capita GDP has now reached the previous two hundred thousand soft sister coins – it can be considered that this number is less than twice that of the original United States. This is progressing After redistribution, the “GDP” based on the Token system!

In a sense, the country has entered the world that it once longed for, where distribution is based on needs and everyone aims to achieve self-worth.

“Then… how about I apply for another vacation and spend more time with you?” Yang Wenzhi thought about it and felt that he should do something.

“You can fight at the front with peace of mind, and then take care of yourself. It’s better than anything else.” Cao Yuxin shook her head gently, as if thinking of something, and a trace of worry rose in her eyes: “I used to hear you say that fighting is just like playing games, it’s all remote, it’s okay Aita controlled it automatically, but when I saw… General Herko… I realized that it was a real war.”

Yang Wenzhi also fell silent when he mentioned Herko, and sighed softly after a while.

The group of people in their former enemy’s headquarters all came from the grassroots level, and because they were in a very special environment, they had a particularly harmonious relationship and had a true feeling of comrades–including Herko.

Everyone in the former enemy headquarters knew each other’s families and had met each other.

“Don’t worry, I am the commander-in-chief of the former enemy and the fleet commander after all.” Yang Wenzhi chuckled: “If it is really my turn to sacrifice, mankind will probably encounter a crisis… And at that time, I believe you can also be calm of.”

“Bah! Don’t raise the flag blindly!”

“Haha, this is not a flag, but a respect for war.”

The couple sat in the room chatting casually, and time passed quietly until the daughter poked her head out of the door: “Dad, Mom, I didn’t disturb you, did I?”

Yang Wenzhi waved to his daughter: “Oh? Have you finished the project? How do you feel?”

“It feels great, but it’s a pity that we lost.” The daughter stuck out her tongue, still not finished, and continued: “I heard that the spaceship is going to pass by the ‘Sky Ring Project’ soon, but we can’t see it through the portholes here, so we can only go to the observation deck. Only then can we see it, do you want to go? After seeing it, we will go directly to the restaurant to eat.”

“Tianhuan Project?” Cao Yuxin was slightly startled and looked at her husband: “What kind of project is that?”

“Well…” Yang Wenzhi was slightly startled, and a smile appeared on his lips: “Then let’s take a look.”

“But you need extra tickets, Dad!”

“Don’t worry, your father and I are rich!” Yang Wenzhi laughed and held his wife’s hand: “Let’s go and see this Tianhuan project.”

…

Although most of the guests who boarded the World View spacecraft had a certain financial background, because they had to pay extra for tickets and went to see a man-made project under construction… so the vast majority of them were no longer interested. .

After all, they have seen too many man-made miracles on the moon.

Whether it is a space shipyard, a super accelerator, or a space dock and the shining artificial singularity… they are all great projects that can be recorded in the annals of human history.

And for such a big project, it’s just the same thing after seeing it too much.

After Yang Wenzhi, his wife and daughter found a good seat and sat down, they began to wait quietly for the dome to open.

“Dad, have you ever seen a supernova explosion?”

Her daughter is a person who can’t sit still. She looked around secretly and asked in a low voice.

Yang Wenzhi was waiting, and he laughed when he heard this: “Where should I look?”

“A classmate of mine said that his father saw a supernova explode during a space voyage. I think he lied, but I didn’t dare to expose him…” The daughter looked unconvinced and hummed softly: “He also said supernova The outburst was so good to watch, and the video was even produced.”

“Synthetic.” Yang Wenzhi smiled and shook his head: “It can’t be seen with the naked eye, and even…all space is actually the same. It’s all a star, and then a few or a dozen planets, some big and some small. And navigation I will also avoid these planets…”

“Then…haven’t you seen a planet like Jupiter?”

“Massive planets like Jupiter must be avoided.”

“Well…it seems like space travel is boring?”

“If you are looking at the beautiful scenery in space, it is really boring. It is better to lie on the beach at night and look up at the Milky Way. Since the field of view is wider, it looks more pleasing to the eye.”

“Dad…you will shatter my dream of chasing the universe.”

“Haha, if dreams are shattered so easily, it means that dreams are not reliable.”

During the conversation between father and daughter, the dome gradually opened.

A steel ring with a diameter of ten kilometers slowly appeared in the field of vision.

Countless engineering and material spacecraft are surrounding it, forming a sea of ​​spaceships.

With just one glance, her daughter showed a disappointed look.

“It turns out it’s an accelerator…”

“Well…it’s really just an accelerator.” Yang Wenzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and nodded slowly.

He knew this was more than just an accelerator.

The creation of this thing – whether it is a curvature engine or used as an energy core for a battleship, means that human weapons will once again be upgraded to a terrifying level!

This project is so important that Academician Ye Ming is personally responsible for it!

As soon as he thought of Academician Ye, his wrist moved slightly.

Yang Wenzhi lowered his head, glanced at the number, and then turned to look at his wife.

His wife seemed to realize something, frowned slightly and motioned for him to answer the phone quickly.

Yang Wenzhi nodded, gently shook his daughter’s hand, and then strode out of the dome viewing room.

As he walked, he put on his headphones.

“It’s me, leader.”

“where are you?”

“On the tourist ship.”

“Then you can find a place nearby that can hold a confidential projection meeting. There is a situation with Zeng Yuanhai.”

After a pause, Qin Weiguo’s voice was a little serious: “Maybe you have to end your vacation early.”

Yang Wenzhi took a breath, nodded silently, and said slowly: “I understand, but…I am currently in the orbit of Jupiter…”

“Academician Ye is also over there. I’ll contact him later. There is a super high-speed ship over there.”

“receive.”

Yang Wenzhi exhaled softly and then walked to an office nearby.
