Chapter 3 Slum Children Haven't Seen Good Things
"These shanty towns with one stack of buildings are far from strange customs and customs on Haizhou No. 12. It is full of black households, robbers, thieves, prostitutes. It is full of drugs, black markets, and human traffickers. The filth of human nature is often reflected here. Poverty and hardship are shrouded in the sky all day long. This embarrassment not only lasts for hundreds of years. Sadly, there is more than one such garbage planet, but hundreds of millions of people living at the bottom of the starry sky, living a life away from the hardships of modern society, and we have no choice." - "National Geography of the Great Eagle Empire"
====================
As a newcomer who has embarrassing status and status in Lin Family Manor, Lin Hai has been silently observing this new environment these days.
The manor is located in the Ringxing District 2 of the core area of the Riverside Star. The well-connected transportation of the Riverside Stars interweaves the entire planet into a modern society like a bird's nest.
High-rise buildings are emerging one after another, and aerial platforms extending towards the upper space of the planet.
As the social space continues to expand, hierarchy will naturally occur. The higher the houses and roads are built, the higher the level, the more they go, the more they represent the latest technology and the most modern buildings. If you want to have a corner of the upper space with unique scenery, you naturally need certain assets and corresponding status.
Geography can easily separate the entire society. The prosperity of the highest level and the filth of the lower level gradually form a clear-cut area. Therefore, the birth of high-end rich areas and dilapidated slums such as Riverside Star.
Huanxing District 2 is a place where many rich people live in the upper space, second only to Huanxing District 1. It brings together a large number of famous and wealthy families with riverside stars. The streets are spotless, and there are several monopoly cleaning companies cleaning mechas back and forth to maintain the cleanliness and tidyness here every day.
As the owner's manor of Wayne Group, it is very quiet and has a high-end place on weekdays. Occasionally, I will see a business aircraft, stop at the manor, discuss something, and finally leave. Or at night, Lord Lin Wei's extended aircraft car drove in, and then walked into the bright manor with a few people, breaking the tranquility.
According to Lin Hai's observation, four cars are most commonly used inside the manor, one is the Lord's "Lincoln" extended aircraft car. It should be used for Lin Wei's business and social activities. If he goes to the company, he will transfer to another "Ram" gray luxury car. Another one is the current Lord's wife Ning Qing's car. In addition, there is also a sports car with a bat-shaped appearance that is often left by Lin Hao to make friends with him.
During these days, having lunch at the manor restaurant, you will meet Lin Hai’s three families now.
Lin Hao obviously regarded him as a transparent person because he had a deep gap with him. He talked about things in the academy with Lin Wei and his wife. In comparison, Lin Hai was isolated and out of place. Only the Lord sometimes broke his silence and asked Lin Hai if he was accustomed to coming in the past few days, or mentioned the plan to send him to the academy in the near future.
The so-called college is probably the famous universities in the empire. Since he arrived, although he was an illegitimate child with no status, he could not just live and wait for a lifetime. He grew up in a slum and had not received any education and cultivation from a modern system, so Lin Hai could also predict that instead of placing him in a manor like this, it would be more worry-free to let him enter an college.
Apart from the habits of those playboys, Lin Hao is actually very smart. A famous imperial school Qingyuan College, who was able to enter the Qingyuan College, who was seventeen years old, which proved that he actually inherited the excellence of his parents' bloodline.
Just being admitted to Qingyuan College does not mean that you have a talent in business. In the overall situation of taking on the group's heavy responsibilities, the young Lin Hao really lacks the opportunity to be targeted by those who have dissidents within the family.
The group's position in the Imperial Military was shaken and its business was frustrated. Lin Wei's body was getting weaker and he had to start considering the inheritance of titles and family leaders. Several brothers in the family were at this time and had strange intentions. Through these key points, Lin Hai seemed to understand why he was taken to the Lin family manor.
It seems more logical to use him as Lin Hao's shield to attract the firepower of the elders in the family.
This can also explain why Lin Hao and the current Lord's wife Ning Qing would tolerate his arrival.
This luxurious manor is just an empty shelf, and the interior is actually filled with the indifference of real human relationships and worldly styles.
This is the upper class society that widows on the garbage planet long for!
Lin Hai was thinking so bored in a little gloomy mood.
************
Although the new environment and the indifferent manor are strange to Lin Hai, they do not have much rejection. This is because he can see the advanced mechas on the riverside star and see the garbage star. He can use computers in the manor that can connect to the international network to obtain a lot of consultation. He can see the modern society that can be seen on TV in the manor, and the luxury that dazzled him in the manor.
Lin Hai has an almost paranoid love for machinery. When he thinks about it, it seems that it started with the mountains of garbage piles of garbage in Haizhouxing. He grew up in a large number of abandoned electronic metal garbage dumps, and then these profound memories of growth naturally became his talent. But no one knows how much his persistence and talent in machinery have reached.
Fortunately, there is enough environment in the manor to let him do nothing. The powerful computer in his room alone has allowed him to quickly absorb information every day and learn about the knowledge that his once closed garbage stars cannot know.
Basically, there is nothing that can divert his attention except eating and sleeping.
However, the arrival of the red mecha outside the manor this evening is an exception to this cold and boring life.
For a person who is almost stubborn and passionate about mechanical things, nothing is more fascinating than seeing advanced mechas with crystallization of technology.
The fiery red mecha had a smooth arc like a harrier, and two long mechanical legs supported the torso structure. The light and shadow of the city flowed brightly on the fuselage, which was extremely beautiful.
The mecha's barefoot tracks were pulled on the ice and came to the manor. Wayne Group was originally an armor-making company, and there were hangars in the manor. During the time Lin Hai came to the manor, he had seen several mecha transfers, all of which were the mechas lying on large trailers. So he had a longing for the underground hangar of the Lin Manor. He didn't understand this longing, and roughly felt that the pirates in ancient books were as excited as treasures, probably because he was obsessed with it.
This is also the reason why he is extremely concerned about Wayne's information these days and does not reject this new home.
The mechas that were moved in this way made him excited like a hormone. They were as beautiful as the special mechas that appeared on the garbage star before. Compared with the broken copper and iron he made on the garbage star, whether it was aesthetic, material or electronic equipment, it was no longer in the same level. Or it was not in the same era.
Until the mecha glided and disappeared into the gradually closed underground hangar, Lin Hai was still drooling in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He drooled at a mecha instead of a beautiful woman with a erect buttocks. Even Lin Hai felt sick when he realized that he was sick.
There are too many secrets in the manor that he needs to discover. The red mecha suddenly appeared and disappeared like the clouds that appeared in the evening. It only left a shocking impression on Lin Hai.
Not only is it material scarcity. Haizhouxing also lacks too much information and knowledge, not to mention the exposure to high-end technical information that is composed of mecha designs.
Even if children in slums want to learn knowledge to change their destiny, they still have an insurmountable gap compared to orthodox society because of the gap in information acquisition.
His room is on the second floor of the manor. He lives in the villa. Although it is incomparable to the luxuriousness of the suite like Lin Hao, its internal layout, advanced video paging system, and some artworks placed everywhere have already made Lin Hai, who had never seen anything interesting in the slums, very moved.
It's like coming to a treasure house.
"The gold ancient globe on this museum shelf starts at least 30,000 yuan on the black market!"
"If the tourbillon clock there can be taken away, at least ten years of good life."
"Even the door handle is gold. If you can get down, you won't have to pay 10,000 yuan! There are eighteen rooms on this floor, two such handles in one room. If all of them are demolished, how much will it cost."
Slum children have dreams, and the massive amount of mechanical information in the computer is Lin Hai’s dream.
However, children in slums also have material greed because of their poor life, so Lin Hai will inevitably feel a little fantasy when seeing the luxurious decorations all over the house.
While thinking about this, this guy kicked the fist-sized gold globe on the table into his pocket, bulging the boss. Of course, he couldn't really steal it, just put it in his pocket to warm it up. Imagine if I was rejected by this family, I would pack these things back to the garbage star, which would be enough for me to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life! Similar to this kind of dream.
These days, Lin Hai reads the information in that computer cravingly, and does these things when he is tired. Of course, this is only limited to the fantasy imagination in his pocket. In the end, he will stick out his butt and put the thing back on the table, wipe off his kneading fingerprints, and there will be no mistakes in the placement. In front of Ang Lee, who helps him clean up the house every day, he will still look extremely calm, as if these luxury is like passing clouds in front of him, with a proud image of wealth and unyielding poverty and humbleness. This makes Ang Lee look at him quite differently.
And just as he was admiring, the door behind him opened.
The manager, Ang Lee, would never come at this time! So Lin Hai's scalp suddenly became numb.
It's too late!
I turned my head and watched the door behind me open. A tall and arrogant woman was wearing a slim black suspender with lace edges. Her two shoulder straps extended a curve of her breasts. Her long legs were as spectacular as her slightly cold and perky nose bridge, with a bit breathtaking thrilling.
Then Lin Hai, who was holding a baby in a retro porcelain vase, almost pressing his face on her face, was exposed in front of her.
In this short moment, a certain extremely dead atmosphere was created.
After a while, Lin Hai gently stroked the vase, put it back to its original position, and murmured to himself, "I almost fell down."
Then he took out the golden globe from his bulging trousers and put it back on the table, "Why did he roll to the ground so accidentally?"
He frowned and looked at the woman at the door, "Who are you? Is there anything wrong?"
The girl was shocked at that time.
Although she is an adopted daughter, she has grown up in an environment of great cultivation and knowledge. She has met shameless people, but it seems that she is so shameless.
Then her eyebrows were slightly frowned, as if she had not seen the scene just now, but her face looked even more cold and arrogant, and she also showed a faint contempt in her eyes. She walked straight into the room. Then she lay down half on a sofa leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window, as casual as if she was in her boudoir.
At this time, the star of the riverside stars was setting sun and the golden afterglow covered her body. Her red hair and water vapor were hanging down her towering chest casually, scattered and freehand. It was as delicate as a porcelain doll in the rays of light.
Seeing her long legs overlapping in the afterglow of the sunset, Lin Hai couldn't help but the Adam's apple rose and fell, and swallowed hard. The fire seemed to be inexplicably moving. Finally, he understood why, when the manor manager Ang Lee, who was very self-disciplined, showed that obsessive expression when he mentioned her - there were countless people in the entire Riverside Star, hoping to conquer this woman.
Thinking of the arrival of the red mecha in the manor today, many people were greeted by us, and when it came to this woman who seemed to have just taken a shower and changed into casual clothes and could come and go in the villa, Lin Hai immediately guessed who the other party was.
Of course, she is Lin Hao's sister whom she is a wise man, and she has an extraordinary status in the Lin family and is the adopted daughter of the Lord.
This dangerous woman finally came to her door!
But in the situation just now, pretending to be confused is naturally much better than being really smart. In the survival of the garbage star, Lin Hai had long understood what disguise was. However, this woman is more than ten times more beautiful than the white and tender widow next to the garbage star!
Lin Hai was stunned at her long legs and looked in Lin Wei's eyes, and a trace of slight resentment flashed through her eyes.
Although it was the first time to meet, Lin Hai's appearance just now, and seeing the beautiful woman's eyes showing her eyes has already made Lin Wei make a basic conclusion about him: after all, it was from a place like garbage star. Although it was his father's illegitimate son, he did not have the superior bloodline of the Lin family. He was shameless and vulgar!
Lin Wei was in her early twenties and didn't know how many intrigues she had dealt with. Not only did she carry the halo of a proud daughter of a famous school, but she also had the temperament she had cultivated on many occasions. If you just look at her age, it is hard to imagine that she is already the daughter of the Lord who has a high prestige in Wayne's company and can mobilize a large amount of resources in just one sentence. It is difficult to find her intellectual and intimidating charm in an ordinary girl. But she can perfectly combine it.
So the anger in her eyes flashed and she smiled, "You are Lin Hai."
Lin Hai nodded.
"I heard of you, I am Lin Wei. We are about the same age, but in name it can be said to be your sister. So from now on, you are already a member of the Lord Lin Wei family." Her original meaning was to remind him that the family had family rules. But whether the other party had enough understanding and understanding would determine whether he would live in this manor in the future.
Lin Hai was obviously stunned. Not long ago, when he came to the villa, he slapped his nominal "brother" Lin Hao twice. He originally thought that Lin Wei, who had always been known for his strength and arrogant personality, would come to seek punishment, and he even made the worst plan. But he did not expect that Lin Wei came to the door and said such a sentence.
But the calmer it is, the more violent the storm that comes.
Lin Hai's keen noses like trash stars smelled an unusual smell. But Lin Hai seemed to be invisible, and two rows of shiny white teeth were grinning under his slightly dark face, "Of course we are a family! Haha, we all live under the same roof now."
It turns out that he is a person from a slum. He is uneducated and shameless, and he should have a limit.
The anger in Lin Wei's eyes finally emerged.
There are many illegitimate children in the countryside who have experienced luxurious life and have unqualified thoughts that should not be qualified, and they are in a bad mood to seize their property.
In the Great Eagle Empire, the identity of the illegitimate child has always been extremely low and cannot even be recognized by the mainstream, so he has no qualifications to covet property. Although the regulations are now very complete, for the customs that have been formed for thousands of years, these are facts that even in the imperial courts have acquiesced.
Lin Wei came to confirm what kind of person Lin Hai was. She has been operating in the Lin family business for so many years, which is like having her efforts and some of her expectations. These are the foundation she laid for her younger brother Lin Hao. Now a Lin Hai suddenly jumped out. If he grew up from a slum, he was infected with the dirty habits there and had an intention to do the family business, then she would have to take precautions early.
However, seeing Lin Hai's performance today, Lin Wei felt relieved.
This is a person who has never seen the world, is greedy for small wealth and immediate interests, and grows up in the garbage. Every word and action is annoying. Such a person cannot have any grand ambitions for the family business. What's more, his tiny worldview doesn't even know what kind of behemoth the Lin family's Wayne Industrial Group is to him.
Thinking of this, Lin Wei looked at him with a little sadness. She even raised a smile on her lips inadvertently.
“No meal.”
"Ah, not yet." Lin Hai shook his head honestly and unceremoniously.
"Follow me, I'll treat you." Lin Wei said and stood up and walked out the door.
Who knew that Lin Hai looked flattered behind her, "Go out to eat. Are you asking me for a date? The first time I'm a little excited."
Lin Wei's tall body suddenly paused at the door, then she held back the impulse to vomit blood and clenched her fist, and left without looking back.
Seeing Lin Wei angrily disappearing into the elevator in the villa, he didn't even wait for him to close the door.
Chapter completed!
