Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
Rachel has a team of more than 20 people, including staff members, personal servants, and armed guards. She did not say hello in advance to Havana this time, but shouldered a certain mission of investigation and understanding, hoping to see a real ‘Aurora Legion’.
Although there are disputes over registration and disarmament, the entire mission has complied with local regulations under the order of Rachel. Under the guidance of the port guide, these twenty people first reached taxi and went to a hotel to check in.
Cuban ’s economy has always been underdeveloped, the urban construction is quite old, and the public facilities here were quite general before the catastrophe. However, Rachel found from the port to the hotel that the public facilities here are better than the current North America.
"Last month, the Ministry of the Interior unsealed a batch of electric taxi and buses from the United States, all of which are the most advanced vehicles. There are already more than fifty bus routes in the city, which greatly enhances our lives. Improve. "
Efficient public transportation system greatly expands people ’s range of activities, improves the utilization rate of urban areas, and deepens the army ’s control of urban population. The hired old guide was very proud of it, full of pride in his words.
Rachel really has to envy it. The Brotherhood of Steel has a stronger military force and more vehicles, but the investment in people's livelihood is still pitiful.
The power grid has not been restored, and gasoline is completely rationed. It is difficult for people living in North America to leave their homes and go farther away. It is almost impossible to go out to find work and food.
"People here live better than we do." When a taxi passed a street corner, a member of the same car as Rachel sighed. There is a supermarket on that street corner, and grilled chicken is on sale at the door of the market.
Yes, roast chicken!
The smell of fragrant and fragrant, fluttering all over the block, is mouth-watering. For those who have been eating military stocks for several months, the smell is unbearably drooling.
The Brotherhood of Iron and Steel also wants to redevelop the aquaculture industry, but the severe cold in winter suddenly drops to minus twenty or thirty degrees, not to mention the animals and plants, and people without any precautions will be frozen to death.
Even if some chicken breeds survived, they were eaten by people who were about to starve to death. As a result, the temperature is now rising. If we want to develop the breeding industry, we cannot find a living chicken.
Not to mention chickens, there are too many extinct animals and plants. Poultry such as chickens, ducks, geese, pigs and cows, wild birds, insects, and nothing can be seen. It can be said that except for some humans with strong self-preservation capabilities, the wild lifeforms has no way to withstand the sudden nuclear winter.
This can't help but remind Rachel of the warning signal sent by Zhou Qingfeng before the nuclear bomb strike. It is because of this warning that David Lawrence, who was still in the city, took a large number of people out of the desperation of nuclear bombs and let him Obtain great authority and support in the nuclear winter.
Compared with the ‘Aurora Legion’ which began preparations for nuclear winter one month earlier, the Brotherhood of Steel is more embarrassed. Not only did the former live well, they even had chickens to eat.
Not only chicken, eggs, but also a lot of fast-growing vegetables in the supermarket, pigs and fish, and a variety of goods that are almost extinct in other places.
The members who got off the car temporarily wanted to scold. They originally felt that in North America, the Brotherhood of Steel and ‘Enclave’ are the only players who can play at the table. Other forces are simply not qualified to speak.
But the situation in front of me is too unpleasant, and ‘Aurora Legion’ had a better life than anyone else.
The old guide also told Rachel and others that the army has carried out extensive production and self-help work, and there are large and large greenhouses on the outskirts of the city. The temperature of coal transported through Mexico is maintained, and lighting is provided by various efficiency but extremely practical power generation equipment. The production of vegetables and meat is increasing every day.
"Last month, the market began to provide a large number of vegetables such as tomatoes, lettuce, cabbage. Originally these foods were only provided for the internal members of the legion, and now ordinary people can also buy them, but the price is a bit expensive. . "
The old guide finished and asked, "Can you eat these things in the north?"
Rachel was silent for a few seconds and said, "You can also eat it."
"Can it be supplied in large quantities?" the old guide asked.
At this time, Rachel does not want to talk nonsense, but can only shake his head slightly: "It can only be provided to very few people."
"Ah ..., then you must be a very rare and honorable minority. I have seen the luxury yacht you are riding on, and you must be an extraordinary person. If you want to establish diplomatic and trade links with our legion, You can go to the Capitol after settling down. "The old guide said with a smile.
"I will definitely do it." Rachel nodded again, his thoughts fluttered. It ’s better to see one thing than another. It ’s not impossible to get news about ‘Aurora Legion’ from various radio stations and radios, but it ’s better to feel it in person.
After the taxi arrived at the hotel, the envoy of more than 20 people was settled down easily. Comfortable beds, delicious meals, warm hot water, these are nothing for the Rachel already in the high position, but think about this is just a hotel, the meaning behind this is completely different.
The hotel provides the most exclusive service to Rachel staying in VIP suites, everything is very appropriate. They even sent the newspapers of the day, so that travelers can keep abreast of the latest information of the current world.
"Oh my God! Victor has even run a newspaper. Where did the news come from?" Rachel found that the thin four-page newspaper really listed the world's major events.
The front page headline is actually the ongoing military friction between the Brotherhood of Steel and ‘Enclave’. There are even some public statements and commentator articles from the heads of the two parties to the conflict. These things Rachel rarely pay attention, or it is difficult to know.
In addition to being called international news, the newspaper also detailed the current internal information of ‘Aurora Legion’, which contains a large amount of commercial information on the Caribbean and South America. This is the first time that the Brotherhood of Steel in North America has heard of South America in recent months.
"This kid actually cares about so many things!" For Rachel, who has been stuck in New York State, a simple newspaper immediately opened her eyes. She immediately asked her staff members: "Why didn't we collect these newspapers before? No one cares about these public information?"
In the past few months, it ’s not that no one has taken the risk of traveling between Havana and New York. Among them is the small number of intelligence personnel sent by the Brotherhood of Steel. But now it was not until Rachel personally ran that he found his own understanding of the world too narrow.
However, a bunch of members who came to Havana looked at each other, and no one could answer this question.
"Forget it, don't blame you. No one in the entire fraternity cares about this remote place, nor the people and things here." Rachel sighed and walked to the balcony of the room. The sky and the warm sunlight fell on her face, and she could already feel the slight warmth, but she was not so good in her heart.
Looking at the bustling crowds in the city and feeling the vitality of the city, combined with the seemingly simple but not simple newspaper, Rachel can feel the deep meaning projected behind this.
Victor Hugo could have stayed quietly in Cuba and became a warlord. He has done so much with all his strength, he has established power, he has improved people's livelihood, and now his eyes are not only on this tiny Cuba, but on the entire America. This can no longer be described by ambition.
This is a man with a big heart! (To be continued.)
