When he heard about the Xingyao Tribe, Lin Yan immediately smelled something different, "In a tribe of more than 100,000 people, everyone worships Venus as their god. How can their belief be that of a real person?"
Generally speaking, most of the beliefs are about illusory gods, etc., and the most real ones are worship.
Who is this Venus? It can brainwash hundreds of thousands of people, and they are all poor people. If you don't eat it, you have to offer it to the gods. It's really powerful.
Lan Yue: "I have secretly observed Venus for a few days. He is the same type of person as us, and he is also a mysterious person. He knows some unpredictable techniques, which makes people awe and treat him as a god. This person seems to be upright, but he has many thoughts and greed. Powerful and fond of luxury.”
Lin Yan: "It is impossible to control a tribe of more than 100,000 people without means. Putting it this way, it is not surprising. What you mean is that if we want to take over the Xingyao tribe, we must first deal with Jin Xing."
Lan Yue nodded, "The people of the Xingyao Tribe obey Jin Xing's words. It will not be easy for the Alliance to replace them."
Shui Sheng: "The most fearful thing is that this kind of faith is not easy to destroy. If it is just poverty and backwardness, it would be easier to deal with."
Lin Yan: "Let's not talk about this for now, Lan Yue, go on."
Seeing a sapling brought back by Lan Yue, Lin Yan could no longer calm down.
"Take a look, is this a rubber tree?" Lan Yue was a little unsure. When she discovered it at the time, she carefully recalled the characteristics of the rubber tree that Lin Yan said, and felt that they matched. To be on the safe side, she tried her best to bring back a small tree. Tree.
Shuisheng's eyes widened and he looked more carefully, but he couldn't tell the difference. If it is really a rubber tree, a huge change is coming.
In the past, Lin Yan mentioned the importance of rubber trees many times, and they remembered it deeply. I have never seen it before, and I didn’t expect that the blue moon would bring such a big surprise.
Seeing Lin Yan nodding, Shuisheng's mind was spinning rapidly, and the people in the Materials Institute were about to get busy.
Lin Yan looked at the test results of the Science and Technology Museum again and said with certainty: "It is indeed a rubber tree. There is hope for natural rubber. Lan Yue, you are a big contributor. Tell me, where was it found?"
Lan Yue took out the map he drew, pointed to a place and said: "I have already explored this large area. There should be places that have not been explored yet. It is a vast area, with few people living in it and many ferocious beasts. "
Lin Yan said happily: "We have found the thing, and everything else can be easily solved. No matter how powerful the beast is, it cannot withstand our explosives, weapons and poison. How long does it take to reach this distance from Qingyan City?"
"It's a three-month journey. If we use a new ship, we can get there in less than two months."
Lin Yan walked back and forth excitedly, "We have to think carefully about how to bring natural rubber back. We don't have enough time this year, and we will have to wait until next year at the earliest."
Shuisheng reminded: "If you go there, you have to pass by the Qushui Tribe and the Xingyao Tribe. Will you be hindered? Both tribes have a large number of people and cannot be ignored."
"Yes, these two tribes are stumbling blocks on the road and must be solved." After Lin Yan finished speaking, he thought again, "We are going to dry sea salt next year, and we can't deal with the Qushui tribe and the Xingyao tribe."
Shuisheng: "Before you get carried away by the surprise, calm down first and think about what to do next. The rubber tree is there, and you can't escape. Only we know its function. No matter when you go, it's ours." "
Lan Yue also agreed. She had walked through it herself and knew how difficult it was. "The Yang River has been flowing to the southeast, and many small rivers merged in the middle. The water flow became larger and larger, and finally merged into the sea."
"Have you seen the sea too?" Lin Yan immediately grasped the key point, holding the map and looking carefully, "Is this one?"
"Yes, even this area is the sea, boundless, and we don't dare to go too far."
Lin Yan: "You should be lucky that you haven't gone far. The sea is no joke. A wave hits and the boat is about to capsize. Come and take a look at the map I drew. This is also a sea. What we found may be the same." A sea.”
Lan Yue saw the majestic waves of the sea with her own eyes and felt that what Lin Yan said might be true.
Lin Yan: "Actually, it's not difficult to prove. When we go to the beach, we can walk along the coastline and we will know whether it is true or not. If it is the same sea, we can enter the sea from the Huahe River, bypass Qushui and Xingyao, and go from the sea Go find the rubber tree.”
"What a good idea. People who go to the beach to make sea salt will set off next year, and I will go with them." Shuisheng is really curious about the legendary sea, and always feels regretful if he doesn't take a look in person.
Lin Yan: "Okay, we can all rest assured that you will be in charge personally."
Shui Sheng said hurriedly: "Then it's settled." He was afraid that Lin Yan would regret it and go out again, and he would lose the opportunity.
The three of them were excited for a long time and talked to Lan Yue about what had happened in the alliance in the past few years since she was away.
Lin Yan looked at Lan Yue: "The 20th year of the Solar Era is less than half a year away. It's the election year. It's great that you can come back. This time we are all candidates for the arbitrator, so we must fight hard."
Lan Yue: "Both you and me?"
"Yes, you have become a member of the Arbitration Court in June. After running around for so many years, you are qualified to be a candidate for the arbitrator."
Lan Yue sighed in her heart, how big the changes have been after being away for several years.
She asked: “Who will be the president of the league?”
"It's hard to say." Lin Yan couldn't guess. "The chairman will be selected from the five arbitrators. Anyone is possible. Because of this, it is even more uncertain."
Shuisheng didn't think so: "You two missed the last election and don't understand the voters. It's impossible for Kurotsuchi and I. Being able to become arbiters is already the limit. The chairman will only be chosen from the remaining three arbiters. You and If Lan Yuedu runs for election, he has a great chance of becoming the arbiter. Therefore, the chairman will only be between you and Huang Ying."
"If this is the case, then Lin Yan is inevitable." Lan Yue quickly figured out that the voters of Sun City are crucial. Lin Yan has many supporters, so there is no suspense.
Shui Sheng thought the same way. As long as Lin Yan ran for the election, there would be nothing else to worry about.
The three of them hid in the office and chatted for a long time, until Ye Cong came to find them. All their old friends were waiting to see Lan Yue at the scientific research institute. They waited and waited for no one, and then he came over.
Ye Cong complained as he walked: "You three have gone too far. You hide and whisper by yourself, and you don't take us seriously at all. We are all good friends. Let's forget about talking alone. We will say it again later. It's interesting. ."
"Didn't I forget?" Lin Yan glanced to the left, Lan Yue didn't say anything, and to the right, Shuisheng looked at the sky and the earth, but didn't look at her, so he could only deal with Ye Cong hard.
"Forgot?" Ye Cong raised his voice, "You can even make such a perfunctory excuse. You are all mysteries, and it is recognized that you have a good memory."
Lin Yancan smiled and simply admitted: "Ye Cong, we did something wrong. We apologize and beg for mercy."
"That's pretty much it. Let me think about what I need to do to forgive."
