As expected, after Lin Xi took a deep breath, he began to educate Chu Jungui at length in order to correct the distorted three views of the test subject.
The big families in the prosperous Tang Dynasty have a long history of hundreds or even thousands of years. They have naturally formed a set of rules and methods of life. They also have a systematic way of cultivating their children. Lin Xi took the Lin family as an example and taught them well. Chu Jungui did some popular science.
For example, the children of the Lin family in the same area of the Lin family will initially receive education in the same way. There will be no distinction between the direct line branches, nor the outstanding and mediocre. The heir has enjoyed one-on-one training since he was a child.
This is to cultivate the children's sense of belonging to the family from an early age, reminding them that no matter where they come from, everyone has the surname Lin and comes from the same bloodline, and they must be united when they grow up.
When the children of the Lin family grow up, their pocket money is often strictly limited, and the pocket money given out by the family is basically not much. Even for Lin Xi, her pocket money since childhood was almost the same as that of ordinary children, sometimes even less. However, she started hellish special training when she was very young. It didn't make much difference whether she had pocket money or not. There was no place to spend it anyway.
As they get older, most of the children of the Lin family have developed the good habit of being thrifty and living within their means. They are diligent and motivated, live a frugal life, and most of the time regard money as dirt until they graduate, start their own business, and no longer rely on family funding.
The children of the federal aristocrats are completely different. The typical one is the little princess Hathaway. She uses the best in everything she has on hand and carries on her body. Whatever she picks out, it cannot be seen on the market at all. All are handmade and customized works by masters. As for the price, ordinary people can't even imagine it.
After some brainwashing, Lin Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt much calmer. Seeing that Chu Jungui was silent, she asked strangely: "Why don't you speak?"
"Oh, I'm reading the information."
"What information? Show it to me." Lin Xi became curious.
Chu Jungui sent a copy uprightly. Lin Xi opened it and saw that it was a report from more than a dozen large companies. The time was as of the end of last year, with sub-items and summaries. Many of the names of these companies look familiar. Lin Xi recalled for a moment and immediately remembered that these were companies controlled by the Lin family or with large shares. It seems that among the Lin family's industries, all the large-scale ones are listed in this list.
Lin Xi directly turned to the summary table page and immediately saw many red and bold marks, which were basically the profit or revenue growth rate of each company in the previous year.
Without taking a closer look, Lin Xi knew at a glance that about one-third of these companies were suffering serious losses, and most of the remaining companies were making no profit. Only a few were making money, and the profits were not large. Among all the companies, only one has very good profits and has been growing year after year. But this one company couldn't stop the losses of seven or eight companies, so after all calculations, the Lin family's industry still suffered losses.
Lin Xi's face turned red and she said angrily: "Where did you get this information?"
"Didn't I want to rescue you? Of course I had to collect information before I went, so I searched for all the public information on the Lin family and the imperial family, so I had an idea."
Lin Xi's heart softened, and her anger disappeared. She sighed: "Actually, you are right. The Lin family has a big business and a lot of expenses. However, over the years, the family business has been getting worse and worse. It’s not satisfactory. Every year at the family meeting, it’s a matter of each family trying to recruit people to a better-run company.”
"Doesn't the Lin family still have two marshals? Why don't I see any of these companies in the military industry?"
"Our Lin family has long had an ancestral motto that if the military is our profession, our descendants will not be allowed to engage in related industries. Therefore, the military industry is a forbidden area for us, even if we have some involvement in it."
"So the Lin family tradition is pretty good."
Lin Xi said angrily: "Okay, you don't need to say anything!"
In terms of financial resources, the Lin family is not only inferior to the great nobles of the Federation, but also inferior to some middle-level families. However, the food and clothing standards of the children in the family are much worse than those of the small nobles. After all, the Lin family has a big business and a lot of expenses. No matter how frugal they are, the money will be spent like water every day when they open their eyes.
In fact, there must be many geniuses like Lin Xi in the Lin family. It goes without saying that teaching students in accordance with their aptitude is more effective than attending classes in the hall. There are only a few teachers who can teach children like Lin Xi well, and they are all expensive. With the current wealth in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the starting salary is at least one million per year. As a result, the more children have to be taught in accordance with their aptitude, the annual expenses will be huge. Given the dismal operating conditions of the Lin family industry, it is simply unaffordable.
Frankly speaking, Lin Xi was able to grow to this point mostly by herself, and the Lin family's early education basically held her back. Of course, years of special training have indeed tempered her mental perseverance.
After looking at the warehouse, we went to the living area.
Not surprisingly, the living areas of the base are all made up of modular dormitories. All living dormitories are pre-built, and once they are installed in fixed locations, they will have as many rooms as needed.
But what is unexpected is that the worst dormitory units are 2 people per room. The bed is built into the wall, with storage cabinets above and to the side. Lying on the bed, you can look up and see the stars. Of course this is not a real starry sky, but a background image. The background picture is adjustable, and there are at least hundreds of scenes to choose from.
The lighting in the room and on the bed is all done by light strips, and the brightness and color can be adjusted at will.
Every 20 rooms here form an independent living area, with a armor library and bathroom. There is a unified restaurant for eating. All these areas are airtight and can breathe freely without the need for armor piercing.
And this is just the treatment of ordinary soldiers, officers have better enjoyment. School-level officers already have separate bedrooms with their own bathrooms. The generals have special living units for senior officers. Not only does it have a bedroom, a armory, and a bathroom, it also has a separate living room, living room, and even a study room.
The test subject was deeply suspicious that he had gone to Planet No. 4. What was the purpose of this study room?
After seeing the living area of the base, in comparison, the life of Chu Jungui and Lin Xi in Base No. 2 can hardly be described as hardship.
This is where people live their lives at the Jolly Roger Base.
At this time, Chu Jungui suddenly remembered what Croma said to Jack that he would be treated appropriately. Looking back now, this sentence is a bit meaningful.
