Chapter 3 Memories
Su Mo looked at the rich food in front of him and gradually fell into memories.
When he was eight years old, he and his grandfather still lived within high walls. In his memory, the high walls were filled with new and gorgeous houses, the environment was very beautiful, and even the air was fresh.
But suddenly one day, grandpa secretly sold all his assets and escaped from the high wall overnight incognito.
The reason is also very simple. I don’t know who I have offended, but people often wander around and peek at my door.
Originally, his parents died in a car accident, and this incident has already made my grandfather very worried, not to mention the weird things that have happened over the years.
Worried that something might happen, I ran away.
Finally, he settled here and purchased a large number of properties.
And every year on his birthday, my grandfather would take him here for dinner.
As for the so-called high wall, it is the wall that separates the rich from the common people. It has been in existence for hundreds of years.
Two hundred years ago, an extremely tragic nuclear war broke out in this world. A large number of people died. The earth, air, and oceans were all contaminated by radiation.
At the end of the war, the countries that had been baptized by disaster finally realized that in the end of the war, no one would be the winner, so they shook hands and made peace, and established a loose federal system to discuss and resolve conflicts among various countries.
It clearly rejects war and embraces peace as its purpose. Conflicts that can be resolved through conversation should never be resolved with force. If not, other methods will be used to solve the problem, including virtual game confrontation.
Therefore, the game industry in this world is very developed.
However, the shadow of war still does not fade away so easily. Although the world is at peace and all countries are working together to control the environment, the remaining radiation is like tarsal gangrene, plaguing everyone.
All animals, plants and marine life in the wild have radiation levels that exceed standards, and basically no one eats them.
Fortunately, with the explosion of science and technology, breakthroughs in artificial synthesis technology have been achieved. Among them, starch can be synthesized artificially in large quantities, and poultry such as pigs, ducks, cattle, and sheep can be cultivated through hormones to achieve rapid production.
As for vegetables, they can be cultivated through soilless chemistry, but because green plants accumulate pollution, they must be cultivated in pollution-free fresh water.
This also makes it unaffordable for ordinary people to consume.
The whole people has entered the era of meat-eating, and in this era meat products are the cheapest. And pollution-free vegetables and artificially raised pollution-free ingredients have become the most top-notch existence.
At the same time, due to the advent of the Great Peace, the gap between the rich and the poor has skyrocketed, and countless rich people and plutocrats have been born in various countries.
The contradictions between different classes are becoming more and more serious.
To avoid unnecessary conflicts and significantly reduce anxiety, jealousy, violence and crime. All the rich and plutocrats gathered in the center of every city and built high walls. They live within high walls and enjoy the best of everything in the world. If there is nothing special, they will not step out of the high walls.
The civilians outside would not enter the high wall unless they had something special to do, so the conflict between the two extreme classes was alleviated a lot.
But it also caused a generational difference in technology between the two, which was an entire era.
In addition, the purpose of the high wall is not just to restrict the activities of both parties. At the same time, it is also a self-restraint on the chaebols, which strictly prohibits the chaebols from harvesting the leeks of their subordinates at will.
For external civilians, the state also provides a large number of welfare benefits, and all people receive free education. Of course, there is still a difference between good and bad, which will directly affect future development.
Everyone in this era is assigned a job. However, due to the development of science and technology, heavy work has basically been replaced by machinery and artificial intelligence. Most of the work is very easy, and the salary is good. It is enough to support yourself, and there is still a little left in the end, but it is impossible to get rich. of.
Because most people's working hours are constant, they can only work four hours a day. After you get off work, even if you want to work part-time, you won't be able to find other jobs because there are very few.
There are so many technological products in this world, and the remaining money is simply not enough to spend.
People who have finished their work have nothing to do, in order to prevent them from wandering on the streets and becoming a factor of unrest.
Therefore, various countries vigorously promote various entertainments, including games.
At this time, a roaring explosion sounded in the street!
boom! ! !
Three good second-hand sports cars, one drifting, parked elegantly in front of Zhao Ji Hotel.
Then a young man with cracked hair and dyed golden hair stepped out of the car wearing a floral shirt, picked up a few bills and threw them to a toll collector next to him.
"Watch my car and don't let anyone scratch it. You can't afford to pay for it!"
"Okay!"
After saying that, the young man walked into Zhao Ji Hotel with a group of boys.
"Brother Zhang Wu, you are absolutely right to choose this guy's restaurant. This guy's restaurant has the best taste around here, and the girl will definitely be satisfied with it later."
"Okay! Boss!"
Zhang Wu shouted loudly.
"Coming, coming."
Uncle Zhao smiled and walked up to greet him.
"I heard that the food here is good. The university next door will be out soon. My girlfriend is coming over for dinner. What delicious food do you have here?"
"Beef, mutton, pork, burgers, fried chicken, fish, everything is available!"
After Zhang Wu heard this, he sighed and said unsatisfied.
“Why is it all meat, can’t it be vegetarian?”
"Oh, where is that thing?"
Uncle Zhao responded with a smile.
At this time, Zhang Wu accidentally glanced at the food on Su Mo's table next to him, his eyes lit up and he said, "Aren't those?"
"Um, those were bought by others after a long time of reservation. They really don't exist."
"What a disappointment. One of each signature dish."
"Okay, no problem."
Uncle Zhao responded readily.
Zhang Wu glanced at Su Mo unexpectedly. This boy was quite strange. He was in a daze in front of such a good meal.
Then he found a place to sit down.
Not long after, a very fashionably dressed student girl walked in and shouted sweetly.
"Brother Zhang."
"Oh, Xiaowen, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Zhang Wu stood up, feeling very happy and stretched out his hand to pull the girl to sit next to him.
"Isn't it just after school? I'm here as soon as possible."
Xiaowen replied with a little complaint.
"I understand, brother. Look, I have ordered such a large table of delicious food and am waiting for you. Come and tell me what you want to eat, and I will pick it up for you."
Zhang Wu asked diligently.
"Hey, why is it meat every day? People are getting fat now, and they want to eat vegetables."
Xiaowen complained somewhat unhappily.
"Oh, I also know that green vegetables are delicious. The problem is that they are in short supply and are extremely expensive."
Zhang Wu quickly coaxed.
"What, isn't there someone eating over there? Why isn't there any more?"
"That was booked a long time ago. How could it be available at once? Be obedient and I will prepare it for you next time."
"I don't want it, I just want to eat green vegetables. Didn't you tell me how good you are here and that you can do anything? I can't eat what others can eat."
Xiaowen threw the chopsticks aside and twisted her face to the side, looking very angry.
The younger brothers next to them looked at their eldest brother in shock. They knew that their sister-in-law had a bad temper, but they didn't expect that they would make their eldest brother angry in public. (End of chapter)
