Chapter 436 Past Events
New Granada.
The capital is Bogota.
Atop one of the city’s tallest buildings, dozens of engineers wearing exoskeletons are piecing together various container modules.
The building's former name was erased and replaced with "New Granada Radio Building".
As engineers connected the last junction box, the communications station was declared ready for use.
“Begin the test!”
"Communication flow test begins..."
"Please reply at point A..."
"Point A received, the traffic is 7.5G per second..."
at the same time.
More than a dozen communications airships also hovered over the Andes Mountains in New Granada, including the capital city of Bogota.
Each communication airship can cover an area with a radius of about 100 to 150 kilometers. Especially in the New Granada Plain in the western interior, since there are no mountains blocking the way, the communication coverage of the airship can be expanded to a maximum radius of 300 kilometers.
These airships, equipped with laser communications and full-frequency communications systems, overcame New Granada's poor infrastructure.
If optical fiber is laid, it will not only be extremely costly, but there is also no way to complete communication coverage in a short period of time.
On the streets of Bogota.
Many residents have received free identity phones in the past few days, and started giving out money as soon as Homo sapiens arrived.
The locals did not refuse the free things, but the staff still repeatedly reminded them that these things were equivalent to identity documents and bank cards and must be kept properly. If they wanted to replace them with new ones, the price of a single unit would start at 500 gold yuan.
Hearing that it costs 500 gold yuan to replace this thing with a new one, many people dare not treat it lightly.
In fact, if they are used normally, given the quality of their internal machines, they can basically be used for about 15 years.
…
A young white man asked very tangledly: "Luna, are you really determined to stay?"
"Campo, do you think North America is a paradise?" The wheat-colored girl who was cutting flowers replied nonchalantly.
Campo Martinez continued to persuade: "Even if North America is bad, it is better than losing your freedom. Do you want to be implanted with a chip and be at the mercy of others?"
However, Luna Alonso rolled her eyes at her childhood sweetheart's earnest advice: "Haha, Campo, are you a fool? You let others manipulate you? The Sapiens Company is not that boring."
"Why not? You're so pretty, there's no guarantee that the old man in the management of the Homo Sapiens will set his eyes on you..."
"How many people are there in the management of Homo sapiens? Even if they are Alexandre Dumas, can they sow seeds for hundreds of millions of women? What's more, there will be no such risk in North America?" Luna said nonchalantly.
"...It seems I can't win the argument with you. I'm going to North America tomorrow. Will you come to the airport to see me off?"
Luna tied up a bouquet of flowers and put it in the other person's hand: "I respect your choice and wish you happiness in the future."
"Okay! Goodbye! Luna, you have to take care of yourself too. I'll email you when I get to North America."
Campo left the flower shop unhappy with the flowers.
Alas! Luna sighed secretly. In fact, she had an impulse to stop the other party, but unfortunately she didn't say it out loud in the end.
"Reluctant?"
"No." Luna continued to arrange various cut flowers with her head down.
"He is not the same kind of person as us after all, you can just let it go."
Luna tied a bouquet of carnations, then looked at the middle-aged woman who was leisurely drinking coffee, and said with a look of disdain: "Dear Ms. Aurora, don't you have to work?"
The middle-aged woman, whose eyebrows
"..." Luna was silent for a while: "I don't think I need to run around anymore, right?"
"It depends on the situation!" Aurora, as the deputy captain of the New Granada Column of the Field Business Department, had been in a latent state. Now that New Granada has officially become one of the regional branches of the Sapiens Company, she will most likely transfer from the Field Business Department to other departments.
She lifted her hair, propped up her chin and looked at her graceful daughter with eyes full of doting: "Luna, what is your ideal?"
"Ideal?" Luna paused for a moment, then trimmed the roses: "I want to go to Antarctica to see penguins, but this should be quite troublesome, and it will cost a lot of money, right?"
"Silly child! Your mother has received hundreds of thousands of field subsidies in recent years. Isn't it just going to Antarctica? The company has seven scientific research stations there. After a while, when the situation in Latin America stabilizes, I will take you there."
"No!" Luna shook her head: "I don't want to use your money. It will make me feel unfulfilled."
Aurora did not object to her daughter's idea: "You want to travel with the money you earn from your work? That's fine too. If you save for a few months, you can buy a ticket to Antarctica."
Suddenly, the TV station in the flower shop interrupted with a news broadcast.
It is the officially established test channel of New Granada Radio and Television, which broadcasts many programs about Sapiens Company.
"Mom, have you seen that man?" Luna pointed to the news footage on TV.
Aurora turned her head to look at the TV, and then a flash of memory came into her eyes: "He is a very special man, like the sun."
Luna was very curious about her mother's past. As far as she could remember, when she was 14 years old, her mother disappeared for about half a year because she had a congenital heart disease. After she came back, her mother became very mysterious.
"Aren't you very curious about why I went to Southeast Asia?" Aurora's eyes were a little dazed: "Because of money! I heard that Asia needs Latin American models, I can make money there, and the cost of heart surgery in Asia is relatively low, so I was deceived..."
"Cheated?" Luna was shocked.
"Have you heard of drug dealers? Those gangs will look for beautiful women, and then use work as an excuse to trick them into transporting some contraband to Asia." Aurora told the story.
Gulu! Luna's face turned pale.
"My destination that time was Manila. I met that gentleman in Manila, and then I came back with the power to change Latin America." Aurora's eyes became sharp.
She looked at her daughter and said, "I destroyed the gang myself, rescued those women who were deceived and forced, and then grew bigger little by little, and finally swept across Latin America."
Luna didn't expect that her mother would have such an experience.
After speaking out what she had hidden for a long time, Aurora felt relieved. Then she said meaningfully:
"Luna, do you know why I hate America so much?"
"Why?" Luna was puzzled.
"Because the boss of that gang is from the Black Ship, America is the biggest cancer in this world."
"What?" Luna was very surprised: "They actually did this kind of thing? No, I want to persuade Campo to stay."
However, Aurora shook her head: "Silly child, his heart has long been filled with the sweetness of freedom. Without the whipping of reality, he will not believe you. Let him be!"
Luna was very depressed.
Aurora seemed calm and composed, as she had seen too many spiritual Americans.
She strongly supports these people leaving. Garbage should go to the garbage dump instead of enjoying benefits in the company and yearning for the beacon of freedom all day long.
