Night’s Nomenclature Chapter 34: Kunlun Guest


"There is a Yunliu Tower in the city, so what if you need to leave the city?" Qingchen asked about other things.

"Generally, it is troublesome to leave the city. You can go out, but you need a visa to go through customs," Jiang Xue replied: "It seems that because smuggling is too rampant, the tax collection agency has set up customs checkpoints. The tax agency in the other world is very powerful. , is a state machine comparable to a consortium army."

"The tax agency is so powerful?" Qingchen was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, not only does it have a powerful executive department, but it even has its own intelligence department, which is completely different from the outside world," Jiang Xue replied.

"What if you go through customs and go outside the city?" Qingchen asked.

"I heard that there are cloud flow towers scattered on both sides of the road in the wilderness," Jiang Xue explained: "Mechanical limbs also have larger energy storage, just like the mobile phones we buy in the outer world have 64G, 128G, and 256G The same thing, the more durable ones are more expensive. Generally, everyone has no concerns about durability, so they all choose the cheaper ones."

"Oh, it's just for people to buy and consume," Qingchen nodded.

“In the outside world, many young people pursue mechanical limbs, just like some children in the outside world pursue sneakers and new mobile phones,” Jiang Xue explained: “Not only that, many people also decorate their mechanical limbs. For example, it can be inlaid with beautiful gold lines and gold edges, or inlaid with gems and diamonds."

Qingchen sighed: "I understand this, it's the skin in the game..."

Jiang Xue thought for a while: "It's not impossible to understand it this way..."

Suddenly, Qingchen recalled the prisoners in Prison No. 18.

It seems that many people have gold decorations on their mechanical limbs. Gems and diamonds are rare, but there are quite a lot of gold, such as Lu Guangyi!

Qingchen asked tentatively: "Are those inlaid gold wires and gold bars real gold?"

"Yes," Jiang Xue nodded.

"Then...is the gold in this world the same as that in the outside world?" Qingchen asked again.

"It should be the same," Jiang Xue said: "The five major consortium banks in the world all issue currencies based on their gold reserves."

Now, Qingchen finally knows how to make money from the other world!

He even clearly remembered who had how much gold!

Other things may be difficult to cash out and easily reveal one’s identity, but gold does not have this problem.

At this moment, Lu Guangyi may not know what he will face.

Qingchen asked: "What is the means of transportation in the wilderness? Is it also an electric car?"

"The military will use diesel engine cars," Jiang Xue replied.

The diesel engine has a large burst of energy, low speed and high torque, and is more suitable for military use and heavy-duty off-road use.

Moreover, the diesel engine basically has no circuit, and can be started completely by hand cranking and pushing, which is more suitable for severe environments and climates.

Qingchen didn’t expect that the other world would still use diesel engines...

Jiang Xue added: "Of course the military also has more powerful aircraft, using liquid oxygen armor... I forgot what armor is. Rich people in the city also use aeroplanes as transportation, and this is what they use. Fuel."

"Liquid oxygen methane?" Qingchen asked.

"Yes, that's it," Jiang Xue's eyes lit up.

"Aerospace fuel," Qingchen sighed again: "This is what Musk Tesla's SpaceX rocket uses now."

Jiang Xue said to Li Tongyun: "Xiaoyun, you must study hard like your brother Qingchen. Look, if I just say half a name, he can guess what I want to say."

Even Jiang Xue gradually felt the qualities of Qingchen’s academic master.

Whether it was the interpretation of wireless charging just now or the instant understanding that what she was talking about was liquid oxygen methane, it would definitely not work without a rich reserve of knowledge.

This is a very unique feeling, as if there is nothing this young man doesn't know.

For Qingchen, the appearance of the two time travellers, Jiang Xue and Li Tongyun, filled some of his cognitive gaps.

In Prison No. 18, he could not ask more questions in order not to reveal his identity as a time traveler.

After returning to the surface world, it is difficult to distinguish the truth from the noisy information.

Now that Jiang Xue heard about the real "inner world", he was still a little excited.

Jiang Xue’s Robotic Limb Clinic has all kinds of people from all walks of life, so it’s a good place to get information.

Qingchen suddenly asked as if he remembered something: "Then... Xiaoyun called me, did you want me to help you with something?"

Li Tongyun said: "My mother can't lift her hands. Can you please help take care of my mother for a day."

At this time, Jiang Xue's arms were hanging down by his sides. Qingchen could tell that the other person hadn't washed his face this morning, and there was eye mucus in the corners of his eyes. His hair was not combed into the usual ponytail, and he didn't prepare breakfast for Li Tongyun. He was very embarrassed. .

It is really troublesome to cut off the power of this mechanical limb. In the inner world, it can be charged anytime and anywhere, but in the outer world, it has to be used sparingly.

At this time, Qingchen also remembered that there was a time traveler in Luo City before. In order to get rid of being followed, he jumped to the roof of several meters. He didn’t know what happened to this guy later. Will he be paralyzed directly? On the ground...

But this way, at least the modifiers of mechanical limbs will have some scruples in the watch world.

He looked at Li Tongyun's expectant eyes, then looked at Jiang Xue's apologetic look, and sighed: "But I don't know how to take care of people."

There is no school today on Sunday, so there is plenty of time. However, Qingchen can only take care of himself, and he really has never taken care of others.

Jiang Xue said quickly: "No, no, no need to take care of me. It's just that I can't cook for Xiaoyun today. Can you help take care of her?"

It can be seen that Jiang Xue is really guilty.

Li Tongyun said aggrievedly from the side: "Brother Qingchen~IndoMTL.com~Please cook us some food, I'm hungry."

Qingchen smiled: "Cooking is no problem."

As soon as I finished speaking, there was a knock on the door: "Hello, is anyone home?"

Qingchen was standing in the living room. He glanced out the window and saw the mysterious organization's off-road vehicle.

"Xiaoyun, you go open the door for the guests, and I'll go to the kitchen to cook for you," Qingchen said and got into the kitchen and put on an apron for himself, leaving only his back outside.

Xiaoyun opened the door, and two young men in black suits came in and said to Jiang Xue: "Hello, I am Lu Yuan. We have met, people from Kunlun."

Kunlun? Qingchen was stunned for a moment in the kitchen. It turned out that the name of the other party's organization was Kunlun.

Just listen to Jiang Xue say: "Please sit down, Xiaoyun, quickly pour water for the guests."

Kunlun members asked in confusion: "What's wrong with your arm?"

"The mechanical limbs have no energy," Jiang Xue explained.

"Remember this," the young man said to his companions. He and Jiang Xue learned about the situation of the mechanical limbs. It seemed that they did not know that the mechanical limbs would still have no energy.

Qingchen, who was eavesdropping in the kitchen, guessed that the other party might be just like Jiang Xue said, it had just been established, so he didn't know much about the other world.

Jiang Xue asked: "Are you two coming?"

"Oh, we want to ask something," the Kunlun member said: "There were two gangsters last night. After one of them escaped from your residence, he was attacked in the community and broke his tibia. You know this Who did it? Don’t worry, we are not here to pursue legal responsibility, we just want to find out."

Qingchen's heart suddenly lifted.
