Traveling through the heavens from swallowing

Chapter 222 Neighbor Luo Feng has grown up
The Earth in 2042 has already shown a preliminary picture of what the future world will look like.

All base cities around the world have completed comprehensive intelligent transformation. Medical care, transportation, learning, life, production, management and other aspects have been largely replaced by intelligence. Previously inefficient or even ineffective jobs have basically been taken over by intelligence. Social productivity has greatly improved, material wealth has gradually increased, and the people’s average living standard has improved greatly compared with more than a decade ago.

But even though productivity has increased more than tenfold compared to before, major base cities still have a considerable number of poor people and families.

This is due to the large group of warriors.

Warriors, as the current privileged class in human society, even the lowest-level junior warriors have an average asset of more than 3 million. The average asset of war god-level warriors is over billion, not to mention the planetary-level councilors who control countless resources and power and whose assets cannot be measured by quantity.

In 2042, the number of registered warriors in the world reached a staggering 600 million. These 600 million people accounted for more than 50% of the total social wealth. The remaining 40% were the chaebols, wealthy families, financial giants, elite high-income people, etc. who once controlled most of the world's wealth.

The 60 billion ordinary people only account for a total of 10%.

Although the remaining 60% is shared by 10 billion ordinary people, even this 10% is equivalent to the total wealth of human society at that time. Although it cannot make everyone rich, at least the basic expenses of food, clothing, housing, transportation, education, medical care, etc. are affordable.

The only thing that has regressed compared to before is the per capita housing area. After all, although the base cities are already very large, the combined area of ​​​​the 29 base cities is less than 1% of the previous area. If it were not for the increased utilization of vertical space, the base cities would simply not be able to accommodate such a large population.

Excluding the spacious and comfortable spaces occupied by the upper class and warriors, many ordinary people can only live in crowded, narrow, high-density residential buildings. It is common for a family to have only 30 or 40 square meters of living space.

In the Jiangnan Base City, Yangzhou City, Yi'an District, in an old low-rent housing community called Nan'an Community, Liu Mang was doing carpentry work in his yard. As sawdust flew, a quaint, grand, exquisite and elegant wardrobe gradually took shape.

Putting down the carving knife in his hand, Liu Mang looked at the cabinet and nodded, quite satisfied with his work.

He has been exposed to carpentry since the time when he was in the world of Smiling Proud Wanderer. After several worlds passed, he made progress in each world. At this moment, Liu Mang's carpentry skills can be called a master even without using any extraordinary means.

This was the means of livelihood he chose when he was hiding his identity. Producing two or three works a month was enough to satisfy his low-key and luxurious life. If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to get close to Luo Feng, it would be no problem for him to drive a luxury car and live in a villa with his skills.

"Uncle Liu, Uncle Liu, come and have dinner! Dad wants you to come home for a drink!"

At this time, a little kid came running over excitedly, shouting as he ran, and kicked open the yard door of Liu Mang's house!

Bang!
The iron gate of the fence hit the concrete wall with a loud noise, and then the iron gate creaked under the heavy weight and fell to the ground with a clang.

Liu Mang was furious, and roared at the bastard who came in: "Asshole! How many times have I told you not to kick my door!!!"

Little Radish Head didn't care. He smiled and lifted the iron door and hung it back in its original place. With a click, the door axis was put into the sleeve and the door returned to its original state in an instant, but the dent on the concrete wall became a little deeper.

Although it is a small iron door, it weighs more than 30 kilograms. The little guy, who is only four or five years old, can easily lift such a heavy object. His strength should not be underestimated.

The little guy clapped his hands, brushed off the dust on his body, and quickly climbed onto the wooden horse statue in the yard.

"Uncle Liu, why haven't you changed the door yet? It would be a good place for thieves to get in." The little guy rocked and played on the horse for a while, then jumped off and said to Liu Mang.

Don't think that he broke into the door rudely, but this was actually his way of expressing his concern.

He wanted to show Liu Mang that he, a four-year-old child, could kick the door open at will. If a thief came in, the door would be useless. It was time to change it. He was not short of money anyway.

But would Liu Mang be afraid of thieves? So the little guy kicked the door for a year and he didn't change it. He just let him kick it and break it if he had the guts!

After putting away the tools and covering the newly built cabinet with waterproof cloth, Liu Mang said unhappily, "You are just a thief. Your uncle Liu can beat you to tears with one punch, just like beating you!"

"Let's go, Luo Feng, let's eat!"

Looking at Xiao Luo Feng who was very actively helping him lock the door, an inexplicable look flashed in Liu Mang's eyes.

Four years ago, on June 2038, 6, Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan's eldest son was born. He was named Luo Feng, which means as majestic as a mountain, and reflects their earnest expectations for their son.

The birth date is exactly the same as in the original, the name is the same, and the talent for telekinesis is the same. There is no doubt that this is City Lord Luo who will transcend the cycle of reincarnation and become the Lord of Hunyuan in the future!
Luo Feng locked the door and ran over, dragging Liu Mang towards home quickly.

"Uncle Liu, hurry up. Mom made braised pork today. It's a huge pot!"

"Slurp! Ah, it smells so good just thinking about it, hurry up, hurry up!"

Liu Mang was dragged away helplessly by little Luo Feng. Who could have thought that Luo Feng, who later became invincible in the universe, was also like a husky when he was a child.

Luo Feng's home is in a 36-story residential building next to Liu Mang's yard. There are 8 apartments on each floor, and one of the apartments on the 32nd floor belongs to Luo Feng.

In order to save electricity and reduce rent, this small building, which is not considered high-rise, does not have an elevator installed. Liu Mang and Luo Feng can only climb the stairs. Fortunately, the overall evolutionary resources that Liu Mang brought back and spread in recent years have gradually shown results, and the physical fitness of most humans, including babies, has ushered in a leap.

Nowadays, even ordinary people who have never practiced martial arts can burst out nearly 300kg of force with one punch, and climb dozens of floors of stairs in a few minutes without even taking a breath.

Although Luo Feng is only four years old, he is gifted and already possesses a punching force of no less than 100kg. With Liu Mang's inadvertent teaching, his level of control over his strength is not low.

At this time, Luo Feng climbed the stairs, taking one step at a time with his short legs, so fast that his feet left afterimages. It took him more than two minutes to climb the 32-story stairs. He took a few deep breaths and recovered.

Pushing open the door that was never closed, the whole house came into view. Luo Feng's house was a one-bedroom and one-living room structure with an area of ​​only 40 square meters, but the floor height was 6 meters, so it was divided into two floors, which added up to more than 70 square meters.

This is naturally not Luo Feng's home in the original novel. After all, Liu Mang is in this world, and Hanxia has made early arrangements to gain more time for construction. While the 9 base cities are larger in area, they also take the living comfort of future residents into consideration. The heights of the buildings are generally higher, which makes it convenient for those who are able to renovate and expand their living area on their own.

With the various black technologies provided by Liu Mang, the building materials had been fully upgraded when the base city was established, and the safety of buildings several thousand meters high could be guaranteed, so there was naturally no need to save that little bit of height.

In this regard, Hanxia is undoubtedly the world's number one. Even if Liu Mang was not there, Hanxia would still be the world's number one in building houses. Not to mention with Liu Mang, the per capita housing area in Hanxia's base cities around the world is generally twice that of other countries.

At the dining table in the living room, a man in his thirties looked up and saw Luo Feng and Liu Mang coming in, and a smile immediately broke out on his face.

"Brother Yi is here, come and sit down, mother of children, Brother Yi is here, serve the food!"

Luo Hongguo asked Liu Mang to sit down, then asked Gong Xinlan to serve the dishes. He then took out a bottle of wine from the cabinet nearby and poured them for the two of them.

Liu Mang had known Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan more than ten years ago. He was the one who arranged their marriage and helped to organize their wedding. The two of them had been taken care of by Liu Mang since they were young, and he arranged jobs for them when they grew up. They had always been very close to each other, and they truly regarded him as their eldest brother.

Soon, Gong Xinlan came out with a large pot of braised pork and put it on the table. Liu Mang took a look and thought that there were probably about 5 kilograms of meat, as well as a dish of fried peanuts to go with the wine and a dish of braised pork head.

"Wow, what day is it today? It's so rich?"

This meal was nothing in the past, but it is a big deal now, because all the pigs have turned into monsters, and this is monster meat!
After putting the dishes away, Gong Xinlan sat down with a smile on her face. When she heard Liu Mang's question, a blush flashed across her face.

Luo Hongguo laughed loudly, looked at Gong Xinlan and said happily: "Xinlan was diagnosed with pregnancy today, Xiaofeng is going to have a little brother!"

Liu Mang suddenly realized that Luo Hua should have been born two years ago, but he didn't expect it to be delayed until now. He thought that this stock trading expert was going to die.

It’s a pity that Luo Hua is not Luo Feng. With the flapping of butterfly wings, he probably won’t have the chance to follow the old path. He is even two years younger than in the original work. We can’t expect him to still be able to make good stocks.

"Brother?" Luo Feng was puzzled, then stared at Liu Mang and said, "So Uncle Liu is also going to have a brother? Then I will have two brothers."

Liu Mang rolled his eyes, not knowing what to say.

Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan were also embarrassed. Although Liu Mang looked younger than them, Luo Feng always called him uncle because of this, but in fact he was uncle. They knew that this big brother was already 38 years old.

At this age, I have never had a girlfriend, and I don’t even know when I will get married and have children.

They were also very confused. The eldest brother had such good conditions: he was rich, handsome, and a nice person, so why didn't he have a girlfriend?

Liu Mang was not surprised by this, because it was he who rejected all pursuits and insisted on being single and happy.

Liu Mang is very serious about relationships and he is also very responsible to his wife. Once he finds a partner, he has to be honest about many things and there is no way to hide them. His sense of responsibility does not allow him to deceive his significant other.

So, just don’t look for it.

Besides, even if he wanted to find one, it would be hard to find a woman in the entire universe who could catch his eye. He was destined to transcend the cycle of reincarnation, and there was no woman in the entire universe who could keep up with him.

Moreover, even from the perspective of physical beauty, it is difficult to find a being in the universe that is more beautiful than his Wind Spirit clone; even the Zerg Queen cannot compare to him.

How can a woman who is not even beautiful herself impress me with her beauty?

After drinking a bottle of wine, Liu Mang easily knocked Luo Hongguo down, then cleared all the dishes on the table and competed with Luo Feng for the last piece of braised pork.

Of course it was Liu Mang who got it in the end. Luo Feng was very angry and unwilling to accept it, and agreed to fight again next time. Liu Mang sneered and ridiculed him that he could never beat him even if tried a hundred times.

Gong Xinlan felt helpless watching the two funny guys, one big and one small, confronting each other. The eldest brother was good in every way except that he was too childish sometimes and could even compete with children.
