Zhang Yuan came to the train station without stopping.

A message was displayed on the mobile phone: "[Dahua Transportation] Dear passenger Zhang Yuan, your ticket has been paid successfully at 10:03. On July 14, 2264, the second class of trains, G888, Donghua (10:30)-Xisha (11:45), ticket number 781234..."

It was almost time, so Zhang Yuan boarded the train and found his seat to sit.

A soft electronic sound rang in the carriage: "This train heads to Xisha for one hour and fifteen minutes..."

The gray-black cross-sea bridge is like a long dragon lying across the sea. Modern carbon nanotube materials can even handle a space elevator of 36,000 kilometers, not to mention the small cross-sea bridge on the ground.

These bridges can easily withstand typhoons of level 16.

Traditional means of transportation and aircraft will be eliminated. There is no big problem with fuel. Hydrogen fuel can be used instead of traditional fossil fuel, but the carrying capacity and operating costs of the aircraft cannot be compared with that of magnetic levitation trains.

In addition, the speed of the magnetic levitation train is close to that of the aircraft, the fare is cheap and comfortable, and there is no tinnitus caused by air pressure, so the aircraft gradually loses its competitiveness and is on the verge of elimination.

An hour later, several vague shadows finally appeared on the blue sea level, which were the fusion nuclear power plant.

The fusion nuclear power plant on the sea is 300 meters high. Because of the huge heat dissipation, the surrounding white fog is full of steam from transpiration. This distilled water will be collected for use in cities.

Xisha Aviation City is located in the southernmost waters of Xia Kingdom. Hundreds of years ago, it had territorial disputes with small surrounding countries. Various accidents of detaining fishing boats and shooting accidents often occur.

However, the times are developing and society is progressing. With the rise of Xia Kingdom, all these bullshit disputes have become clouds.

"Controllable nuclear fusion is really a good thing. 3 cents per kilowatt-hour. How much can it be reduced for industrial production? Other countries are playing with an egg?"

The nuclear fusion power station has a not-so-great feature: the larger the nuclear power unit, the more stable it runs, and the lower the power generation cost. In addition, due to the limited technical level of human beings, there is no way to miniaturize the nuclear fusion device, so each nuclear fusion power station is like a small mountain.

Nuclear fusion and space economy have made Xia the first country to take the lead, making a lot of money, so it is not a bad idea to let some soup for the surrounding brothers to drink. Territorial disputes have long disappeared. Those who have gained the truth have more help, while those who have lost the truth have few help. Interests are the closest bonds between countries.

The train flew through the nuclear power plant rapidly.

"Look, look! It's a space elevator!"

“Where is where?”

"It's that one...it's as thin as hair."

With squinting eyes, you can vaguely see a slender pillar towering at sea of ​​clouds, just like a kite string.

Under the sunlight, there is a bright and unreality.

high.

Too high...

Many people who saw a space elevator for the first time couldn't help but lie on the glass window and took photos.

The legendary "Babylonian Tower" is a historical miracle. On this planet, there are 17 totals. In the next 30 years, it is expected to increase to more than 30.

Xisha Aviation City has the first space elevator in human history "Tengyun". Its geographical location is about 300 kilometers away from the equator. Its space elevator maintains a slight slope and can maximize the use of the earth's rotational power, thus allowing the elevator to have greater carrying capacity.

After nearly a hundred years of development, the Xisha has become an international city.

"Will it collapse?"

"How is it possible? The principle is different. The space elevator mainly relies on tension, not pressure. Do you understand the tension of the rope?"

"Will the terrorists fight this tower?" Someone who is prone to trouble opens his mind and thinks randomly.

"...It is said that attacking space elevators is equivalent to launching a nuclear war and will be subject to reciprocity. The security of Xisha City is relatively strict, and there are troops stationed nearby, so aircraft are not allowed to pass..."

"Brother, are you already in Xisha City? I just saw the updates in your circle of friends~~~"

At this moment, my sister-in-law's daughter Ye Qingqing called, "Are you going to space? I really want to go to space travel, but my parents asked me to work and study to make money. I can travel 30,000 yuan every time, and I earn the year of the Monkey and Horse Month..."

She was almost envious.

"Space travel is actually not wonderful at all, I'll tell you the truth." Zhang Yuan said with a smile, "Let's work and study slowly first. If you are under 18 years old, you can't apply for a tourist visa at all."

Applying for a visa is one thing, and getting a tourist quota is another thing.

The daily shipping volume of space elevators is limited, so there are not many tourist places. Not only does it cost money, it may also be necessary to rely on relationships. The worldly style of human nature will not be completely eliminated in any era.

During this conversation, the train slowly stopped.

"Dear passengers, the terminal station-Xisha has arrived. Please carry your luggage and prepare to get off the bus..."

When the train arrived at the station, tourists were excitedly looking at the space elevator not far away. No matter where the corner was, as soon as they looked up, they could always see the thick pillar of heaven.

This power of science and technology and industry can fully inspire the national pride of the Xia people. Almost all space elevators around the world have Xia people's technology and shares.

After getting in touch with him for too much, Zhang Yuan didn't feel anything. He just rented an unmanned motorboat on his own.

"Wow!"

The motorboat sailed rapidly in the Xisha City, and the splashed water splashed all over the body.

Xisha City is as summer all year round, but the temperature in July is less than 30 degrees, which is much more comfortable than Donghua City anyway.

This city is basically artificial islands, with bridges connected between the islands, and a large number of waterways below. Sometimes you can see some tropical fish.

A leader once slapped his head and wanted to fill these waterways and replace them with land to improve traffic efficiency. As a result, he was unanimously opposed by the general public because... they thought motorboats were more fun and could attract tourism.

Facts have proved that the people have really done it right. The omnipotent air rails have solved the traffic problem, and water transportation has really promoted the tourism industry.

"Di... The service fee is 16 yuan."

Zhang Yuan walked off the motorboat and arrived at his destination.

"I am an astronaut of Earth Age. Can I register now?"

The service staff of the Deep Space Planning Bureau brushed his ID card, smiled slightly, and said, "Mr. Zhang Yuan, you have 19 days left for your holiday, and it's too early. It's your turn to take off batch."

"No...I just want to ask if there is any place to live?"

The service staff smiled and said, "Sorry, if you arrived 3 days early, we will help you arrange your accommodation. But now, there seems to be no such arrangement."

"You may be able to ask for help from the next university to see if there are any empty university dormitories. I will give you an astronaut certificate."

Zhang Yuan frowned. He came too early and was disliked. This kind of thing is normal, and the service staff just follow the rules.

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome!"

There are many aviation universities stationed here, some of which are international schools that recruit students from all over the world. However, due to the summer vacation, most of the students are on vacation, and the university is empty.

Soon, Zhang Yuan saw the four gilded characters "Xisha University". Because they looked more like students, they were not blocked from entering the school.

Zhang Yuan asked several people in a row before he went downstairs of an office building, [Deep Space Foundation (Xisa University Branch)]

"Hello, I want to meet Wang Zhong, Professor Wang."

“Did you make an appointment?”

“…No appointment.”

"Sorry, there was no appointment, Professor Wang is very busy."

As a last resort, Zhang Yuan had no choice but to take out the killing weapon, the astronaut certificate, and his father's ID card.

Although this kind of thing that depends on your father is embarrassing.

"I am Zhang Qiming's son, so I said... I'll visit Professor Wang Zhong, is it okay?"
