Chapter 53: Wind and rain meet Qiongya from all directions (7)
Generally speaking, in modern time and space, the Chinese government sent teams to take over and control the various forces in Lingao, and basically everything went smoothly.
If we say that when the initial airship formation appeared, there were still some daring people who tried to resist with the weapons at hand. So when dozens of armed helicopters appeared in the sky over Lingao County, flying back and forth, playing the national anthem and announcements, even the most arrogant guys gave up their thoughts on armed confrontation-anyone who has a little understanding of modern military Everyone knows that when there are neither anti-aircraft missiles nor anti-aircraft guns, nor even anti-aircraft machine guns, using slow-firing cap guns and bronze smoothbore cannons to fight against a group of armed helicopters is simply asking for death. What's more, except for these hard-liners who are fierce in appearance and soft in heart, everyone else is worried that the armed confrontation will harm their relatives in another time and space.
——What they don’t know is that these so-called armed helicopters are actually just remote-controlled models that Doraemon enlarged with a [magnifying light]. Apart from their more powerful appearance, they do not have any combat effectiveness... To put it simply In other words, it is a paper tiger that is purely used to bluff people.
Of course, if the travelers on Lingao's side are too stubborn, the airship formation also has ways to teach them how to behave in minutes...
Next, after the emotions of the people on the ground stabilized a little (actually, only the emotions of the time travelers stabilized a little, the natives of the Ming Dynasty still looked lost and crazy), Professor Guo let General Huangshi and several negotiators go down. , let them negotiate with the Lingao Executive Committee. Wang Qiu, on the other hand, placed fruits and drinks in the cabin of the airship to entertain an old friend whom he had not seen for a long time. Although Wang Qiu felt that he and Li Wei had only been separated for less than a month, for Li Wei For a person, it has been in this time and space for almost two years!
"...Oh, what a misfortune! Brother Levi, you traveled to Marseille, France, in the Middle Ages. After spending so many years in a messy, smelly medieval city that didn't even have a public toilet, you also encountered black death. The outbreak of the disease is already miserable enough. Who would have thought that just a few days after returning, I would inexplicably travel to Australia in the wilderness. Could it be that you are related to this time travel? "
Looking at Li Wei, who was obviously much darker and thinner than the last time they met, Wang Qiu couldn't help but reached out and patted his shoulder, sighing, "...No matter what, you are lucky to be alive." ...Also, are your wife and son okay now? "
"...Them? They are still staying in the temporary camp in Australia and have not followed the COSCO Star. After all, it is the first time to break into a strange place. No one knows what they will encounter... But in the end, they have not arrived until The last time I sent a telegram, mother and son were safe... Hier~~"
With an extremely greedy expression on his face, Levi raised his neck and drank a full can of Coca-Cola. Then he burped and replied, "...it's true to say that last time I traveled to medieval France. Being a knight is uncomfortable enough, but luckily I have servants to serve me, and I have enough food and clothing, so I can finally survive in the wilderness this time. In Australia in this era, it was really hard to get anything. Apart from kangaroos and koalas, there was not even bread to nibble on, but crocodiles, poisonous snakes, and poisonous spiders were everywhere... Hey, I really don’t know how I survived the past two years! You don’t know! That kangaroo meat tastes terrible. As for koalas, it’s simply not something humans can eat..."
"...Yes, it seems that you and your sister-in-law have suffered a lot." Wang Qiu agreed, and at the same time handed him a can of beer - open flames are strictly prohibited on the airship, and smoking must be banned, so he could only give it to him He asked for some drinks to entertain himself, "...Anyway, from now on, you can all rest peacefully! We will definitely We will send you all back home safely. Of course, if you are determined to start a career in this time and space, we will also give our approval and support in all aspects - but looking at your appearance, I am afraid that it will be early. I just can’t wait to return home!”
"...That's right, I'm not one of those guys who wants to be king and conquer the world. I don't want to stay in this backward and ignorant ancient world for a day anymore. But I still have to go back to Australia to Bring your wife and children here." Levi shook his head with a somewhat forlorn expression, "... The other people on the Yuanxing probably have the same idea as me... However, the travelers from Lingao came to this world on their own initiative, so I'm afraid they may not welcome you very much. Do you want me to come over? Help us communicate to avoid any conflicts.”
"...There is no need to bother with this. We have sent professionals to negotiate. Relying on the government's deterrence to ordinary citizens and the armed force we have demonstrated, I believe they will eventually make a rational choice..." Wang Qiu smiled disapprovingly and waved her hand, "... taking advantage of this free time, let's talk about your experience in Australia first!"
"...Oh, there is really a lot worth saying! As early as when we just crossed over, we encountered a very incredible thing - the Cosco hit an expedition ship near the coast of Australia Boat! What surprised us was the identity of the owner! ”
As soon as he mentioned this, Levi suddenly became energetic, "...it's not a Dutch ship, not a British ship, and it's not a Spanish ship, but a Polish expedition ship! I never dreamed of it before. The bird-feathered Polish Hussars can actually build ships and do great sailing..."

As Wang Qiu expected, under the mediation and persuasion of Huang Shi, the intermediary, although there was still some emotional resistance, the Lingao Traveler Group and the representatives of all parties invited to attend the Global Traveler Summit still rationally admitted After realizing the reality, he quickly gave up his crazy delusions of armed resistance and instead adopted a submissive posture, more actively cooperating with the government's acceptance and control...
So, an hour later, the entire airship formation landed in flat areas such as Lingao beaches and farmland. The Marine Corps officers and soldiers and various experts were released and rushed to various parts of the county amid the Ming Dynasty natives who feared and worshiped these "heavenly beings".
After another half day, just like in Vladivostok, a space-time door leading to the modern world (actually Doraemon's pocket and spare bag) was erected. All kinds of engineering troops, construction machinery and large trucks filled with construction materials filed in and began to encircle the land in Lingao to carry out construction. Relying on modern prefabricated components and prefabricated house technology, houses were erected as quickly as possible. Rising from the ground...
On the other side, the registration and review of those who want to return to the modern world have also begun in an orderly manner - although the 500 people in the Lingao Travel Group all actively chose to embark on the adventure of the time travel. Family (death master?), rather than those who are accidentally involved in different time and space. But as time goes by, the initial excitement, passion and freshness of opening up a new world gradually fade away, and the hard life in the wild world gradually becomes more and more unbearable... There will definitely be people who regret it, but because they don't have it, To turn back, we can only grit our teeth and persevere.
Now that they have the opportunity to choose again, many people who have suffered enough are naturally eager to return to the familiar world.
To put it more unpleasantly, among those who join MLM groups, who is not full of confidence at first but full of regret in the end?
At the same time, Wang Qiu, who had just experienced a long-distance air journey from Vladivostok to Hainan Island in the late Ming Dynasty, had to board the plane again in modern time and space, heading north from Shanghai to the heart of the motherland. Well, to be precise. , is the former summer capital, Beidaihe.
First from north to south, then from south to north... Such frequent long-distance air travel is really a bit tiring.
However, this time, after all, we were flying on a luxury plane, with the most upscale entertainment facilities and meticulous service from the beautiful stewardess... But considering that this plane was originally occupied by people in the three rows in front of the rostrum, Wang In autumn, there is a feeling of trembling and being on pins and needles.
——After all, even though he has had horrific experiences in infinite spaces, as well as decisive and cruel conquests in various different worlds, Wang Qiu is still just a brave and cold-hearted ordinary person who can ignore human life. , not the wanton and flamboyant super-rich Tony in "Iron Man". Stark...the demeanor of a playboy and a nouveau riche has not been shown in him at least for the time being...

Modern World, Hebei Province, Beidaihe, Central Government Agency Summer Resort
Although since the beginning of the 21st century, in order to save expenses and fight against corruption (at that time, more than 100 luxury sanatoriums were built in a rush in Beidaihe, they were idle for ten months every year, which was a serious waste), the central leadership team in Beijing has already They no longer move to Beidaihe every summer to work, but although the official summer office system has been cancelled, in fact, many central leaders still go to Beidaihe to rest in the summer. On the other hand, central leaders sometimes still receive guests or participate in activities in Beidaihe, so Beidaihe's status as the "Summer Capital" of the Republic has not completely disappeared.
In short, just think of this place as the same place as Camp David in Maryland where the President of the United States often vacations!
At this moment, Wang Qiu was standing in the luxurious living room of a well-guarded modern sea-view villa in Beidaihe Resort, receiving cordial reception and condolences from a group of "famous old people" whom he had known since his student days - all of whom had been mentioned in textbooks, newspapers and news He often appears on the network and talks a lot. They concocted a bunch of long and cumbersome "important speeches" and included them in the current affairs examination, which made classmate Wang Qiu, who was a middle school student at the time, so dizzy that he memorized them so hard that he secretly stabbed them behind their backs. I don’t know how many straw men the previous generation of central leaders...
Although Wang Qiu's mental endurance is no longer what it used to be, standing in front of these old people still feels a little more stressful.
Um? Have they withdrawn? So don’t feel too stressed?
Hey, if George W. Bush or former President Clinton were to stand in front of the vast majority of ordinary people in the world, everyone would feel excited and nervous, right? It’s not like the unlucky former Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan, who not only encountered the Fukushima nuclear crisis of a century during his short term of more than a year, but also made a fool of himself in front of the world’s news media, and then stepped down for more than a year. He could only step on the cardboard box and stand on the side of the empty road in infinite desolation, delivering a speech to the telephone poles and vending machines. The busy office workers around him didn't even bother to look at him...
Fortunately, these former elders of Zhongnanhai are all looking kind and cheerful now. They each take turns patting Wang Qiu on the shoulder and praising with a smile, "...Young man, well done!" "...We old bones. Now I have to thank you very much" and so on.
Wang Qiu was naturally a little flattered by this, and somewhat flattered. However, he still hasn't forgotten what he came to do.
"...I would like to report to all leading comrades that our advance troops have completed the takeover of Lingao County on Hainan Island in the 17th century, and the process is basically going smoothly. The special sanatorium is under construction at full speed. After obtaining the central government's approval, After special allocation, purchased from "Doraemon" All the world's 22nd century high-tech medical care equipment is now in place, and it is expected to be able to meet the treatment needs of at least 100,000 people... But if the number of patients admitted further increases, medical resources may be a bit tight. …”
"...There is no need to worry about this at all. No matter how tight the central finance is, we can still get billions of yen in special funds..." I noticed that all the old people looked over together, and a certain majestic man in Mao suit The young man quickly patted his chest and promised...
