Chapter 72 The UFO Descends (3)
When he heard Wu Han's reply that was almost directly rejected, the Venus man opposite, who seemed to be in the lead, spoke a little stiffly in the tone of electronic synthesizing sound quality:
“We can provide seeds.”
At this point, Wu Han felt very confused. He could not understand the thinking of these aliens. As we all know, growing poppy is not a profound technology. Even illiterate farmers in Central and Southeast Asia can do this job well. Poppy plants prefer fertile soil and sufficient light and moisture, and there are not many other requirements. Obviously, for Venus who can travel between star systems, making greenhouse systems to plant poppy is a very simple job. Why do you have to work on Earth? What secrets are hidden behind this unreasonable requirement?
An abnormal person is a demon. When Wu Han's thinking fell into an unsolvable doubt, he was silent for a long time before he interrogated:
"Why don't you grow poppy yourself? As far as I know, this plant is easy to grow."
Long before the outbreak of the nuclear war, the land area used to grow poppy in the world, such as the Golden Triangle and the Golden Crescent, was calculated in units of tens of millions of acres. At least in the eyes of the locals, growing poppy is no different from growing other crops, and it is just to maintain a family's life.
In fact, the excess profits generated by drug exchanges are earned by middlemen and final sellers, while the growers in poppy-producing areas only have a little higher income than growing crops such as rice and sugarcane, and there is no huge profit at all. To this end, international organizations such as the United Nations, which plan to eradicate the drug trade, have had to make a lot of effort to save the country. They vigorously promote new crops and new farming technologies in these famous drug production areas, and send agricultural experts to guide local farmers to plant cash crops in order to replace poppy that locals are already accustomed to growing, thereby fundamentally cutting off the source of drugs.
The above facts prove that if you eliminate the conditions set by man, planting poppy is not difficult, and it is even no different from growing cabbage and potatoes. This is why Wu Han’s doubts are really impossible to explain why these aliens don’t plant poppy by themselves and have to deal with the people on earth. Wu Han’s suspicion is of course very reasonable, and the Venus in front of him was also stopped by him.
After a period of silence, the Venus leader said:
"The reason cannot be disclosed, but we need opium, no matter how much your output is, we all want it."
Having gained the upper hand in momentum, Wu Han immediately stopped when he saw the good news. He was also worried that if these aliens were angry and angry, the consequences would be unimaginable. So Wu Han selectively forgot some major questions and said with a pragmatic spirit:
"Well, what benefits can we get?"
In this real world, any tangible thing has a clear price. The key is to see whether the buyer can afford the price. There is no transaction that is absolutely impossible to make. Or as long as the buyer pays enough, the greedy humans will take out their souls and sell them together. Aliens are aliens, so they are suspicious. Wu Han will not stand to the end in order to stick to principles. Now he is more willing to know how high these mysterious guys are willing to pay for the survivors of the Peach Blossom Land.
These Venus people seemed to be very happy to see Wu Han no longer ask the question that they were difficult to answer. The Venus people led by him took out something and handed it to Wu Han, saying:
“The catalog of affiliated trade licensed goods, we will come back in three days.”
After saying that, these Venus people stopped stopping. The person in charge emitted a slender beam of light towards the UFO floating above the head. Then, the dazzling blue light lit up again, and Wu Han, who was closest to the UFO, unconsciously took a few steps back.
When the bright blue light disappeared and there was no one in front of him. The UFO disappeared from the survivors with a "whisper" sound, leaving only a afterimage. Watching the UFO disappear into the distant sky, Wu Han lowered his head and began to look at the scroll in his hand, revealing a thoughtful expression.
This product catalog called Venus people uses a strange substance similar to plastic film as the information carrier. The display function is basically imitated by the browser settings of human habits. Not only are they all used simplified characters, but all operation functions are also similar to those of the browsers sold by Microsoft. Wu Han was shocked when he discovered that the other party was prepared for it. These aliens were indeed prepared. They have taken all possibilities into consideration. Even human usage habits are included. I am afraid that these guys are very stupid!
For a moment, Wu Han felt upset and his feet were like stepping on a cotton bag. He did not bother to look at the catalogue and shook his head hard. Wu Han turned his head and said to the survivors who were tremblingly surrounding him:
"Stop looking, let's go back first."
The various changes that happened today are as incredible as dreams. The aliens who have been rumored on Earth for many years, and ordinary people have only heard of their names and have never been seen, walked out of the flying saucer in such a big way. They also politely said to the survivors of the Peach Blossom Land: "Hello." I have to admit that all this happened too suddenly and unreal, and even the coolest and most rational people would be confused by it. Wu Han spent a sleepless night and barely digested the strong spiritual impact brought by this most incredible event.
It was not until the morning of the next day that Wu Han reappeared in front of the survivors who also stayed asleep all night. His psychological reconstruction work had been completed. His expression was as calm as usual, but a little gloom was added between his eyebrows.
Wu Han ordered the gathering of the upper class among the survivors of Peach Blossom Land, that is, the beauties originally affiliated with the public relations department of the headquarters, and a few new survivors who were later absorbed into the decision-making level. In this empty cave that served as a conference room, when the congregation members were placed in a seat, Wu Han said in a calm tone:
"You must have heard of yesterday's incident. I know you are the smartest, most knowledgeable and knowledgeable among our people. Now I want to hear your opinions. Lao Xu, start with you!"
Xu Changli is the kind of traditional scientist who is dedicated to studying academic research. For him who is devoted to scientific research, the appearance of aliens is naturally a huge surprise, and it is a surprise. When Wu Han asked about his personal thoughts, Xu Changli immediately said without hesitation:
"We should carry out technical cooperation with aliens. Their technical level must be much more advanced than ours, as long as..."
With a passionate passion like a religious fanatic, Xu Changli talked endlessly about the significance of technical cooperation with aliens with gestures that conveyed intense emotions. He was optimistic that this cooperation between the two sides would have an extremely profound impact on human civilization and was of epoch-making milestone significance.
After Wu Han patiently listened to Xu Changli's statement, he nodded without comment. Then Wu Han turned around and said to the other participants present:
"Well, it's been one night, and you probably have your own opinions. This is your own people, don't hide it, just say whatever you want and refer to it!"
The ladies seemed particularly shy, and none of them planned to speak on their own initiative. Finally, Wu Han looked around and his eyes fell on a latecomer. When he felt the gaze that Wu Han was cast, the man saw that he could no longer hide, and stood up with a wry smile, speaking in a Shandong-sounding Mandarin:
"Then I'll just say a few words. I think these guys have a bad approach. I have to be more careful and don't be killed by others."
Mei Sijiu, whose hometown is in rural Rizhao, Shandong, is in his early fifties this year and is still a bachelor. He is full by himself and his whole family is not hungry. He is really worried. Because he happened to be born on the first day of the lunar calendar, his parents, who are not studying much, gave him such a name that is often made fun of. Mei Sijiu has a dark appearance and a strong body. From the appearance, he looks no different from ordinary old farmers, but Mei Sijiu's profession is more special. In this industry, it is called a ginseng. To put it bluntly, he is a professional who digs wild ginseng.
On the eve of the outbreak of the nuclear war, Mei Sijiu and several veterans who had worked with for many years were hired to Changbai Mountain for a large sum of money.
Although all geese who know how to know is clearing ginseng in this cold and frozen season, even those who have been wandering around the mountains for a lifetime are no exception. However, under the temptation of a lot of money, they still bit the bullet and agreed to the victim's request to immediately move on to the mountain to find a target. Such a hasty and unreasonable action plan is said to be to treat a big man, and it requires at least three hundred years of wild ginseng that can't be bought for money. It is priceless and has no market. If you can't get spot, you have to cram it.
Before the ginseng was dug, the ginsengers caught up with the huge historical tide of nuclear war. After several ups and downs, the only lucky plum 49 who survived was wandering and wandering to the Peach Blossom Land.
The relationship between professionalism has made Mei Sijiu stay in the Changbai Mountain area for more than half a year. He has a very good understanding of the customs and geography of the areas around the Changbai Mountains, and he can almost say that he is well aware of the grass and trees of Changbai Mountain. Even though Wu Han has been here for several years, he has bought a lot of books introducing Changbai Mountain to read. In his spare time, he has gone out to visit various scenic spots and scenery. But compared to Mei Sijiu, who has closed his eyes and is alive maps that can only be admired by the mountains.
Based on the principle that talents cannot be wasted, Wu Han promoted Mei Sijiu to the decision-making level in a rocket-like manner. Mei Sijiu, who had just arrived and felt that she had too little experience, would not dare to express her opinions on the initiative. If he had not been targeted by Wu Han, he would not have spoken easily.
When Wu Han heard Mei Sijiu's tendency to be conservative, he smiled knowingly and said:
