"So how did things turn out like this?"
Even though the rebellion had come to an end, Li Ke still wanted to know what had happened to turn Pi City into such a state. After all, he had only left for a few months, if nothing major happened, these people wouldn't be so daring.
"Those void creatures cut off our shipping route, causing Pi City's trade to be completely cut off. Those merchants also crazily raised the price of food while you weren't around. I followed your instructions and suppressed them, which caused the situation to escalate."
Sarah had a helpless look on her face. She didn't expect that by suppressing the price of food and preventing them from making three times the profit in a situation where everyone would be doomed if they started a riot, these guys would directly give up their lives to regain control of this place, allowing them to continue selling their high-priced goods on the cruise ship that was about to be destroyed.
"Capital is always blind, this is something that has happened since they were born … Also, are there any results from the research on fertilizers and autonomous robots? The funding is so generous, there should be some reaction right? "
Li Ke didn't feel that this was anything strange. Capital didn't care about the life and death of the people, they would only turn society into a high-spending society. Let's put it this way, working in a factory to produce goods for them, then the groceries, clothes, daily necessities, games, takeaways, drinks, and all sorts of snacks and decorations would all be their goods. They would have shares in the hospitals and schools you went to, the schools would teach you the skills they wanted you to learn, the cemeteries and urns after death would all be under their name. This was the world that they would love.
At that time, you would even need to pay for the cost of your incinerator in installments in advance so that you could safely lie in an urn that was also purchased in installments and be placed in a graveyard that had a limited lifespan and had to pay more to renew it.
They desired such a world, it wasn't a world that normal people would like and live happily in.
"No, the fertilizers are easy to deal with. Those scientists have produced quite a number of results, and now they have reached the stage of researching if the fertilizers would affect the ecology of the plants. However, it's still a little lacking compared to your request. They said that they would be able to produce results within half a year. However, there hasn't been any movement from the AI robots that you want. Right now, they should still be fighting over whether the AI robots should have their own consciousness or whether they should look like beautiful girls. "
Sarah rolled her eyes at Li Ke. She already missed Li Ke very much. In the end, Li Ke only asked these questions after he came back. He didn't even make any small movements. She used to love standing behind him and rubbing his chest, but now she was so obedient. It had been a long time, but he hadn't made any small movements. This made her, who wanted to go to the room to get intimate, very depressed.
"Then let them hurry up. Also, throw the guy who proposed to make a beautiful girl robot and the guy who made the robot have self-awareness into a room to fight. Let the rest of the people work hard."
Li Ke wasn't too worried about agricultural machinery. After all, he had read about it before. Pi City's mechanical department already had similar blueprints. It was just a matter of production and output. Also, Pi City was too small to use it. Noxus couldn't afford it and there wasn't a need for it. Therefore, now that he had unified Noxus, mechanized farming could be put on the agenda.
When that time came, the large plains occupied by Noxus Station would become the granary of the entire world. Even if Noxus' territory couldn't feed the entire world, at least Noxus and Freldrod wouldn't have to worry about food anymore.
As for transportation, the trains and other things could be set up after Freldrod settled down. Previously, Pi City didn't have enough manpower and demand for large amounts of iron ore. Noxus even used large amounts of iron ore to create war fortresses and all sorts of weapons.
Without a market, there wouldn't be a large amount of iron ingots. However, this restriction wasn't a problem now. Noxus' blast furnaces would become more efficient with Pi City's technological support. Large amounts of manpower could also ensure the operation of the factories. This allowed Pi City's technology that couldn't be realized in the past to be put to good use. It would also make society more convenient and developed.
However, all of this required large amounts of food. Li Ke could naturally provide a large portion of it, but he couldn't support it all by himself. This wasn't a good thing for this world. After all, his power was extracted from the magic of this world. If too much was extracted, the natural environment of this world would become unbalanced. Although the natural environment of this world had already begun to show subtle deviations due to the battle between him and the gods, and many places had abnormal climates, he still had to protect them if he could.
Therefore, what he lacked now was fertilizer and pesticides that could double the amount of food produced. As for the robots, they were prepared for the advancement of society in the future. However, this world already had extremely intelligent machines. Otherwise, Li Ke wouldn't have brought this up.
"Ah, right, there's one more thing."
Sarah suddenly furrowed her brows.
"Recently, Pi City has been haunted. I don't know if it's a bad thing because only a few scum and those who escaped from Birgivot would be harmed. Everyone who witnessed their deaths said that it was done by a guy called Parker. Parker said that he came from the Soul Shock and was a harpooner who was abandoned by the captain. But that alone isn't a big deal. The problem is that we can't find this guy called Parker no matter how hard we search. We also couldn't find any clues about the Soul Shock. "
Sarah sighed to express her helplessness.
"Also, he killed a lot of people who were loyal to me but had some misdeeds in the past. A few of my ships were planted with the merchants' men. That's why they dared to act … To be honest, I used to like this vengeful spirit who took revenge on the captains who abandoned their crew. But now, I don't like it anymore."
Parker?
Li Ke vaguely remembered that there was a support who could instantly kill an AD. He also seemed to recall that someone had recommended a guard named Parker to him. But if he remembered correctly, Parker should have been eaten by a big fish before he turned into a ghost and went to Birgivot for revenge. Why would he come to Pi City?
Could it be that because the scum from Birgivot came to Pi City, that guy came to Pi City to hunt them down?
That … made sense.
