last reservoir

Chapter 9

When shivering under the blanket, I can't help but miss the fiery body temperature of that young boy back then.How much she wanted to lie in his arms again, embraced by his firm arms, and listen to him read those love poems that she couldn't understand but made her blush.

Maggie looked around the small cell. It was square, with a single bed, a desk, and a chair. There were toilets and showers in the corner. There was no ventilation, and there was enough heating to keep people from getting cold. Got to tremble, very human.It was probably the most comfortable place she had ever lived in.

She sat down on the chair and fumbled to turn on the old-fashioned desk lamp on the table. The lampshade and lamp base were made of wood, although they were rough, they looked rustic.The desktop is a large handwriting board, which can be used by prisoners to write down their feelings.

Maggie picked up the stylus, and there was a moment of embarrassment, and then she slowly wrote down the poems he often read to her back then. She couldn't understand any professional words, and she knew very well that Jian Ling didn't write it for her, but she just loves the lingering longing in it:

Breaking through the boundaries, you came to my side.

Gently erase my wounds, Abel.

My heart has become an independent variable,

The function fluctuates because of you.

low-order finite-order,

consistent inconsistent,

I miss your Piano remainder...

Earth is a star in the sky

Campi Flegrei is a large volcanic area about 13 kilometers wide, including 24 craters and volcanic bodies.After exploration and research, Dulcelle Petroleum Company avoided those areas with frequent hydrothermal activities and active sulfide gas eruptions, and made the first mark on the edge of a relatively stable volcanic area.The eyes of the whole world were on this moment, and the whole planet seemed to be holding its breath.

Ling Yuge sat in Jian Ling's big office back then, and for some reason, his whole body trembled slightly, half excited and half fearful.It has been more than nine months since he took over Jian Ling's position, and his stubborn and rigid half-brother, for some reason, insisted on resigning from the well-paid position in Dulceller's company, and went to apply for the United Nations Secretary of the Earth Environmental Protection Committee.Everyone knows that with the current economic downturn, environmental protection is just a dead letter.This United Nations agency is actually ignored by anyone.

But there is still a little power at critical times. For example, things like using volcanic craters to produce oil must be approved by them, otherwise the United Nations has the right to hold a meeting and ask the five permanent members to stop it.But these days, everyone is too busy to take care of themselves, let alone the earthquake. The whole world has been holding back for 30 years, and it's just waiting for someone to take the lead!

Ling Yuge watched the large mechanical devices in place on the screen. All kinds of exquisite robots were shining brightly in the sun. The multi-legged robot spiders were responsible for transporting various tiny components. They ran between the ground and the drilling platform. go.There seems to be an invisible big hand on the drilling, combining and fixing various parts of the machine.The whole scene was silent, extremely busy but orderly.

After more than a month of machine debugging and installation, on April [-]th, residents living near Naples who were not evacuated felt dull vibrations from the ground. Fortunately, the intensity transmitted to the surface was not strong, and only a few The old house collapsed and no one was injured.

Ling Yuge leaned up from the chair, grasping the handle of the seat tightly with both hands, feeling cold sweat in his palms, he wished he could rush into the screen to see what happened.During the tens of seconds of the earthquake, the signal stagnated briefly, and then a clear image was sent back from the sky.The underground oil reservoirs are squeezed by seismic waves and slowly rise.

As the pressure increases, the oil rises faster, and when it enters the vainly narrowed wellhead, it is like a Coca-Cola in a straw, and someone takes a sip.When the black, muddy crude oil spewed out from the wellhead, Ling Yuge could feel the whole world standing up and shouting "Ulla!"

He jumped up from the chair, wishing he could pull Mrs. Olsen over for a big hug.Ling Yuge walked around in the office twice like a headless chicken, and then rushed out of the office wearing that sexy surgical gown, regardless of the reality that he was almost naked.

All the colleagues in the North Sea Petroleum Division gathered in the lobby to watch live TV. When the exciting scene came out, someone shook the champagne bottle in his hand, and then pried open the cork. The golden and fragrant liquid was sprayed with snow-white bubbles. out.Everyone threw whatever was in their hands into the air and shouted "Long live!"

Seeing Ling Yuge rushing out, several colleagues came forward to meet him and sprayed champagne all over his face and body.

"Stop it! You bastards!" Ling Yuge laughed and scolded, "I'm still wearing a computer, so don't expect the company to give me a new one if I get short-circuited."

"Don't be stingy, Hugues," a middle-aged bald, red-faced fat man shouted, he is Nicola Bernard, the engineer in charge of the drilling platform, "When Jian Ling left, didn't she keep a set? Mrs. Olsen gave Who is it?"

"Jian Ling is really at a loss," someone answered.After working on most of a project, Ling Yuge cut it off in the end.

Nicholas yelled, "Jian Ling is the one who has the foresight. Just wait, the Environment Agency will soon become the most powerful institution in the world."

It really does seem to be the case.During the Great Depression of the global economy a few years ago, no one could think of caring about the global environment.Since Dulcelle Petroleum Company succeeded in extracting oil by means of artificial earthquakes, countless oil companies, large and small, have sprung up all over the world overnight, and all countries have issued relevant laws to control the number of earthquakes in oil extraction.In fact, even if there is no oil production, since when did the earth lack earthquakes, instead of wasting the energy generated by those earthquakes, it is better to find a suitable place for them.

While the manufacturing industry is speeding up, the smog in China and India is getting worse, the melting of polar glaciers is accelerating, most nuclear power plants in France have varying degrees of damage and nuclear leaks, and the United States is experiencing endless high-temperature wildfires and tornadoes...

However, when the food was not enough to eat, who would have the heart to clean the floor at home?Now, is it time to consider the quality of life again?

Ling Yuge was sitting in an unmanned taxi. He had just returned from a business trip, met the big boss, and was rushing to the office.There are many more cars on the street than three years ago. Even if gasoline and diesel are no longer used, the biomaterials used in the wheels are not affordable for everyone.When rubber tires came into the public eye again, more than half of the world's auto manufacturers have closed their doors and collectively drank the Northwest Wind.

The car drove very slowly because several streets ahead were completely blocked, and some people were organizing demonstrations.Through the window, Ling Yuge saw big slogans painted on the wall with red paint, to the effect of resisting climate warming and protecting the earth.There are also some radicals who posted a photo of Dulcelle, and drew a big red cross on it, "Earthquakes are causing the earth to go to destruction!" In the last year alone, because of the earthquake, oil extraction, in East Africa Tens of thousands of people died in Latin America.

Suddenly, Ling Yuge's eyes widened and his pupils contracted suddenly. He saw his picture on the wall of the demonstration, as if his stomach was tightly squeezed, and he felt sick.

His boss didn't care much about this. The main content of this meeting was to stop the canopy and reduce related funds.Now that the internal structure of the earth has been clearly seen, we only need to find a few seams in the crust to create earthquakes.

"I'm afraid there will be a certain degree of risk in this way." Ling Yuge was a little hesitant. Back then, Ling Han's project failed. Who would dare to say that it was not caused by an incomplete understanding of the geological structure.According to his opinion, the sky should rotate for a few more years until every part of the earth's interior is photographed without dead ends.

"As long as there are laws to protect us from digging oil, other risks..." Mr. Dulcelle shrugged, "What are you doing without risk?"

"And haven't you seen that the global manufacturing industry has been advancing all the way in the past two years, and there is a risk of overcapacity. I heard that the supplies sent to Mars are doubled compared to previous years. If possible, a trade zone can be established there. Maybe the economic chain of Mars will start to work from now on. I plan to try to open a bank there first. Hugues, you have contributed a lot. If that kid Jian Ling is still in your position, looking forward and backward, afraid of this and that, the world is still alive I don't know what kind of shabby look it is." Joseph didn't look sick at all as it was rumored outside, he slapped Ling Yuge's shoulder hard, which made him a little hurt.

"And your mother, you don't have to worry. I have asked someone to bring her information. She is fine and in good health. In two or three years, we will file a complaint with the International Court and we will be able to accept her. I’m back. However, these two or three years are also very important, firstly, to ensure the high efficiency of oil production, secondly…” Joseph was silent for a moment, “You don’t need to worry about this matter, just do your own technology. "

The second thing Joseph said is to guide public opinion. Ling Yuge doesn’t need to worry about this. Naturally, someone will do it for him. The media and TV stations don’t need to deliberately portray Dulcelle Petroleum Company as a live Lei Feng who is not self-interested and only benefits others. , as long as it exaggerates the lives of ordinary people before and after the economic recovery is enough.

You have a win-win situation where you have benefits and I have money to make, why are there still so many dissatisfied people?Ling Yuge's taxi was approaching the place of work, and he found that
