"Hmm?"
As Tsing Hui walked around the county town, he quickly felt something strange. "The country's economy has been developing rapidly. After more than ten years, this county town shouldn't be so backward. Why do I feel that this county town is a bit depressed? Is it the loss of population due to urbanization? No, this county town has a lot of people. It's even more than the county town I saw before … "
Tsing Hui glanced around. Relying on his sharp ears, he quickly heard some suppressed screams.
Following the sound, he came to a dark alley. He saw some tattooed young men with dyed red and green hair threatening two people who looked like students.
He didn't wait for those people to scold him. His body flashed and he quickly took down five hooligans.
"Thank you, thank you!"
The two young students who were saved quickly thanked Tsing Hui.
"It's okay. Okay, you can go."
Tsing Hui waved his hand.
"Big brother, are … are you a warrior? The kind of warrior who can kill Direbeasts? Can I be your disciple? "
One of the young men mustered up his courage and asked.
"Direbeasts? Warrior? "
When Tsing Hui heard this, he just thought that these two young men were fans of Wuxia movies. He smiled and said, "Your main task now is to learn. Go."
"I'm very talented. My teacher said …"
The young man wanted to say more, but the timid young man pulled him and quickly ran away.
In this regard, Tsing Hui didn't care. He quickly searched the hooligans and found a total of two thousand dollars that looked like currency.
"Is there a new version of currency? But then again, at least thirteen years have passed. "
Tsing Hui murmured. He put away the money and then walked around the county town.
But what made him feel strange was that in this small county town with a diameter of three to four kilometers, he didn't find any mobile, telecommunications, or communication business. He had no choice but to enter this unfamiliar company called "Planet Communication".
"One phone, one card. Please recommend me. The price is within a thousand dollars. Thank you."
Tsing Hui walked to the business hall and said to a woman who stood up to greet him.
The woman was clearly not very interested in phones that cost less than a thousand, but she still maintained her professionalism. At the same time, she recommended a phone that cost one thousand six hundred and sixty to Qing Xu. However, when she saw how determined Qing Xu was, she had no choice but to take out a phone that cost nine hundred and eighty. "This is one of the better phones that we sell here. It might not be expensive, but it has all the necessary functions, such as surfing the internet, playing games, and being online. Furthermore, this phone is quite good at resisting electromagnetic radiation. Even under level one electromagnetic radiation, it can still receive signals …"
Tsing Hui took a look. The phone had not changed much in the past ten years, so he quickly completed the purchase and replaced it with a SIM card.
However, when he changed the SIM card and saw the number, he had a bad feeling. "Are the telecommunications and mobile companies no longer operating? Why is this number … 13 digits? "
"Telecommunications? Mobile? "
The female salesperson was a little stunned by Tsing Hui's question. After a while, she said, "Sir, don't you know? As early as six years ago, the telecommunications industry had completed the integration with the strong support of the federal government. Now, there is only one planetary telecommunications left in the world. The other telecommunications companies have merged into planetary telecommunications."
Tsing Hui's heart suddenly sank. "What about the previous numbers?"
"Oh, weren't the phone numbers we used in the past 11 digits? The so-called 13 digits now is just the addition of the area code on the original basis. For example, the number in our Huaxia region is 02. You just need to add 02 before the number you call."
The female salesperson looked at Tsing Hui with a strange gaze, but she still patiently explained.
"Thank you."
Tsing Hui said and quickly dialed a phone number that he remembered very clearly.
Then …
It got through!?
Suddenly, Tsing Hui's right hand that was holding the phone trembled slightly.
"Hello, my Qing Yuming. Who is this?"
Although it was a little hoarse, it was still a voice that was full of energy.
Upon hearing this voice, Tsing Hui's heart trembled violently. At this moment, he actually felt an inexplicable sense of anxiety and fear. He didn't even know how to continue speaking.
"Hello? Hello? "
Qing Yuming's voice sounded again.
If it weren't for the fact that this was his private number and that the person who knew this number had to be someone very close to him, he would have hung up.
On the other hand, after a moment of calming down, Tsing Hui also forced himself to recover a little, but his voice was still trembling. After a while, he slowly said, "Father … it's me … I'm Tsing Hui."
As soon as Tsing Hui finished speaking, the other end suddenly fell silent. Apart from the obviously heavy breathing, there was no reply for a long time.
"You … you're Tsing Hui!?! Where are you!?! "
After a long while, the other end spoke slowly, seemingly in disbelief.
"I'm in Beijiang Province, Berlin City, Global Communications Business Office on Xiangyang Road."
"Beijiang Province, Berlin City? Wait for me, I'll get someone to pick you up right away! "
His voice gradually stabilized, faintly revealing a trace of the aura of a leader who had the situation under control.
Thirteen or even fourteen years ago, his father, Qing Yuming, was already the deputy mayor of the sub-provincial city of Puyang City. Now that more than ten years had passed, he naturally had more authority …
Tsing Hui stood quietly outside the business office and waited silently.
Before returning to the world of Earth, his heart was full of anxiety and eagerness. He wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly back as fast as he could. Now that he had finally returned to the world of Earth and returned to Dongyang Mountain, he felt an inexplicable sense of fear, anxiety, and even emptiness. Even he himself didn't know why his emotions had become so complicated at this moment.
"Phew!"
After a long time, Tsing Hui let out a long breath and forced himself to calm down.
After all, he had experienced countless big and small situations in the world of the Divine wilderness. Although this matter concerned his family … after recovering, he could still forcibly control his emotions.
Sizzle!
At this time, the lights in the business office and even many shops with lights on in front of him flickered at the same time, flickering between bright and dark.
"Hey, we also have this kind of electromagnetic anomaly here?"
A salesman not far from Tsing Hui whispered, "I thought it was only in the north."
"Who cares, the weather forecast didn't broadcast it, so it's probably not a big movement."
"For safety's sake, it's better to turn off the main switch for the time being."
"No need, we use high-resistance equipment here, it's fine …"
Tsing Hui listened to the conversation and vaguely understood something. It seemed that in recent years, the country had often been attacked by electromagnetic storms?
Thinking of this, Tsing Hui couldn't help but take out his mobile phone. However, it seemed that because of the electromagnetic storm, the mobile phone signal was now in a state of no service. Even if he wanted to call his mother, Jiang Ningzhi, and Senior Sister Jiang again, he was powerless.
According to the salesmen, it seemed that this kind of storm generally didn't last too long, so he waited patiently.
Before the storm dissipated, a vehicle that seemed to have been modified, and its appearance resembled a military Hummer, had already driven over quickly.
Not long after, a middle-aged man dressed as an armed policeman and a man carrying a briefcase, who looked like a secretary, jumped down from the car. After seeing Tsing Hui, the man immediately greeted him with a smile. "Are you Prince Tsing Hui? I'm Wu Fei, on the orders of your father, the City Lord of Qing Yuming, to pick you up. "
As he spoke, he took the initiative to open the car door and gestured with his hand.
"City Lord?"
Tsing Hui heard this title and felt a little strange. "Isn't it the mayor?"
"Uh? It doesn't matter if it's the mayor or governor … Young Master Xu hasn't been paying much attention to political and current affairs recently? "
"I'm a warrior, and I've been cultivating in seclusion for the past few years. I just came out recently."
Tsing Hui said.
Warriors existed on Earth before, so he used this as an excuse to not arouse suspicion.
"Warrior, in seclusion?"
When Wu Fei heard this, he was immediately filled with awe. He immediately regarded Tsing Hui as the kind of ascetic cultivator who focused solely on cultivation and did not care about worldly affairs. He immediately said, "Young Master Xu, you may not know this, but after the Earth Federation was established seven years ago, the world's structure has been readjusted. At present, our Earth no longer has the so-called division of countries. There are only the Huaxia Region, the North America Region, the South America Region, the Yinhe Region, the Shanghan Region, the Tokyo Region, and other regions. Due to the limited military power, in order to facilitate defense and management, there are no states, provinces, or cities under each region. Instead, they are unified into three levels of cities, which are the main city, the big city, and the ordinary city. They can barely correspond to the previous three levels of provinces, cities, and counties on our side. For example, the city we're in now is Berlin, which is an ordinary small city. The highest management in charge of these cities is the City Lord, the Deputy City Lord, and the newly added Glory Council three years ago."
When Tsing Hui heard this, he could not help but feel a little stunned.
In just over ten years, the Earth had been unified?
Moreover, the reunified Earth had actually undergone such a drastic change?
"What about currencies, words, numbers, ratios, and other systems?"
"They have also been integrated and unified. As Chinese is the language with the largest population in the world, the current language has been unified into Chinese. Of course, languages like English still exist, but it will probably take two or three generations for them to be completely eliminated. As for currencies, numbers, and the like, they have also been unified … Currently, the currency in circulation is the Federation Currency. The purchasing power of one currency is roughly equivalent to two RMB ten years ago, as well as 0.3 USD, 0.4 GBP, and so on …"
Wu Fei continued to explain to Tsing Hui, and very soon, he had already made Tsing Hui understand these basic things.
However, just as Tsing Hui was listening to Wu Fei's explanation, he seemed to have noticed something, and he suddenly raised his head.
Then, he heard a roar coming from the horizon. When the flying objects came closer, he saw that they were more than ten supersonic fighter jets.
However, what made Tsing Hui feel a little incredulous was that the target of these supersonic fighter jets was not another fighter jet, but …
A bird!
A huge bird with a wingspan of more than forty meters like a falcon!
