The plunder of the heavens begins with the Spirit Cage.

"Get the company dogs out of here!"

"..."

Looking at the bustling crowd, Lu Qianwei smiled and thought, "It seems... it's not impossible to form a cybernetic army."

After hastily hiring a group of unemployed managers to deal with the current situation.

Lu Qianwei led David deep into the factory.

As the spacetime portal opened with the Stargate Shuttle, Lu Qianwei frowned deeply.

Its own system energy was no longer sufficient to support the next activation of permanent fixation.

Absorbing energy from the Mana Giant's belly has become a high-risk method, and not wanting to be possessed, he seems to have no choice but to obediently meditate and cultivate.

David stared in disbelief at the bustling city and the oasis forest on the other side of the portal, stammering, "Brother Lulu, is this a hologram?"

"Of course it's real. It's called a spatial portal. Didn't you see me demonstrate it?"

David nodded blankly, "I...I know, but what's that place over there?!"

Green forests, and flying animals—it seems like all those problems in the world have been solved, right?!

"Alright." Lu Qianwei patted his shoulder with his right hand. "You'll know these things later."

"Anyway, that's where you'll be going to school."

"Will my mom agree to this?"

"I think he will 100% agree after I see that world!"

"Now you can call your mother here."

Aside from Mann's team and David and his mother, whose film project prompted him to offer assistance, Lu Qianwei had become too lazy to care about the cyberpunk world anymore.

This kind of problem of saving people all over the world from suffering should be left to the professionals.

Taking down Watson North is enough for a diverse consortium to stir up trouble.

"Sorry! We are currently unable to manage or save a world with few resources and little value."

This was the first thing Dong Mingxi said to Lu Qianwei after leading his team to Parallel World No. 8 and learning about its worldview.

Lu Qianwei frowned upon hearing this: "What's going on?"

"The war on Cybertron has intensified, and our fleet has gone to provide support."

"The Pioneer Civilization also retaliated against our actions of unleashing a green tide to destroy our planet."

"The revolutionary army led by Dirk in the Ironblood World has occupied one-third of the Ironblood Starfield."

The Ironblood King has now made up his mind to abandon some of the outer star systems and prioritize dealing with internal problems.

Our army soldiers need to be deployed to the battlefield to help.

The reason why the multi-party alliance has been able to develop so rapidly in recent years is that it has devoured and absorbed the resources brought by these aliens.

Now that problems have arisen, whether for reputation or profit, they cannot simply wash their hands of these issues.

The advancements in civilization and technology brought about by these worlds, as well as the diverse economic interests they represent, cannot be easily relinquished.

Therefore, this cyberpunk world, which uses clean energy from methanol but has driven forests and marine animals to extinction, is a prime example.

They are not in a position to allocate resources to help right now.

After all, changing the ecology and environment of an entire world requires a strong military force; otherwise, it would be quite troublesome.

However, shelving the matter was not an option, and the Eurozone eventually sent a group of personnel and armed forces to protect the Watson North Industrial Zone while establishing a grain production company – Workers and Farmers.

You can buy meat, rice, seafood, and all kinds of fruits here.

The news immediately caused a sensation throughout Night City and even the world.

Of course, most of it is smear campaigns.

However, when faced with those worker-peasant soldiers wearing powered armor, driving floating tanks, and possessing airships and laser cannons... they only dared to talk the talk.

As for rushing forward to test the waters, everyone wants to wait for the first one to show up.

at the same time.

Top companies such as Arasaka Group, military technology, biotechnology, and Kangtao were all being inspected by their own security personnel.

We received reports on the meat, rice, seafood, and various fruits produced by the Gongnong Company immediately.

The report clearly shows that all food products manufactured by Gongnong Company contain no industrial synthetic ingredients, no radiation residue, no pathogenic or mutagenic components, and no hormones used for growth...

All nutritional and safety indicators meet food standards!

It even reached the level of pure natural food before the Earth's ecology was destroyed in 2000.

Saburo Arasaka stared at the report, lost in deep thought.

Those in high positions naturally know perfectly well why the world has become like this.

It's nothing more than selfishness and a desire for better control over the world.

"How much do they cost?"

"This price is very low!" The person in charge of the experiment said in a low voice, sweating profusely. "Based on the salary level of the lowest-level employees in our company, they can eat this at least two or three times a week."

"Two or three times," Saburo Arasaka twitched his cane. "Do they have that kind of strength?"

"We're not too sure about that," the head of the intelligence department shook his head.

"The Industrial and Agricultural Company has been in Night City for less than ten days, and we haven't had time to deploy those supplies throughout the entire territory."

"However, they have the air superiority of airships, and we cannot determine in a short time where they obtained the goods from."

The intelligence chief cautiously looked up and saw Saburo Arasaka resting with his eyes closed.

He said in a low voice, "Lord Saburo Arasaka, I don't believe that an agricultural company has the size to provide unsynthesized food for everyone."

"Their low price is probably a ploy to build up their reputation before raising their prices later!" the intelligence chief said with certainty.

He then suggested, "Sir, I think we can buy a large quantity of food before the Agricultural and Industrial Corporation sells it at a low price."

"When they are unable to supply and raise prices, we can take advantage of the situation and make a profit."

Upon hearing this, Saburo Arasaka opened his eyes and slowly looked at the intelligence chief who was bowing his head.

“Other companies have thought of the same thing you did,” he said, slowly standing up and leaving.

However, as he reached the door, he slightly turned his head and said, "Selling in is fine, but don't forget to buy the refrigeration equipment."

"At the very least, we need to ensure that our food is fresher than that of our competitors."

"Hi!" Upon hearing this, the intelligence chief immediately bowed excitedly at a 180-degree angle!

This is an opportunity for everyone to make money.

Of course, for their own benefit, they will still intensify their efforts to smear those who deserve it.

At the very least, the people at the bottom of society need to know that food produced by the state-owned agricultural and industrial companies tastes worse than insects that are made into various food products!

Whether it was out of tacit agreement or something else, these companies that you fought to the death with almost simultaneously used the radio, news, social media, and even celebrities and internet influencers under their control to broadcast fabricated negative news all day long.

Today, the news reports that someone died suddenly from food poisoning after mistakenly eating meat from the Gongnong Company. Tomorrow, they will fabricate rumors that a civilian and his entire family died mysteriously after eating just one bite of an apple produced there.

Various alarmist claims emerged one after another, sweeping across the entire Night City.

Meanwhile, a large number of idle vagrants and street thugs, secretly bribed by the company, gathered outside the factory area of ​​the Gongnong Company, holding various protest banners and shouting to boycott natural ingredients and foreign sources, deliberately creating the illusion of boiling public resentment and indignation.

The grassroots people were incited by rumors and became increasingly panicked, leading to a growing scale of protests each day.

On the contrary, senior executives and purchasing teams of major companies are frantically increasing their stockpiling.

The more a commotion there is outside, the bigger their private purchases become.

They bought up large quantities of products from the industrial and agricultural companies and celebrated every night and every day.

They were overjoyed, waiting for the day when they could raise prices arbitrarily, monopolize the supply, and reap huge profits.

Chapter 198 Wasteland

"Sir... Boss, the four major companies in Night City have all placed orders with us for hundreds of millions of euros."

"Other companies have also purchased tens of millions of euros worth of supplies."

The company manager reported to Lu Qianwei with little interest, completely disregarding the amount of money.

With natural cultivation techniques, fruits and vegetables are more than enough to meet the needs of this planet.

As for meat, the massive livestock industry on Gina Star can fill the gap.

But that kind of high-quality meat is in high demand even among our own people, so how could it possibly be sold here?

Aside from the novelty of the energy technology of ethanol, they completely looked down on prosthetic bodies and the like.

The general manager of the Industrial and Agricultural Group also talked about the protesters, external recruitment of employees, and the issue of overturning the Watson North District redevelopment.

As Lu Qianwei listened, he quickly stood up and waved his hand, indicating that he had lost interest in listening any further.

He must have been out of his mind to take on this foreign trade assignment.

"Alright, you can handle all of these matters." With that, he got up and walked out of the office.

"By the way, it's not impossible to discuss Kangtao's desire to obtain ecological technology."

However, it's best to have someone influential on the other side discuss these matters.

Otherwise, I wouldn't know whether they represent a company or a country.

……

Lu Qianwei arrived downstairs at the company, where Mann, dressed in a suit and tie, greeted him.

"Boss, where are you planning to go?"

"Of course I'm going out for a stroll. There are many places I haven't been to yet."

As Lu Qianwei spoke, he looked at Mann, who was noticeably thinner than before.

"How do you feel after the prosthetic body replacement?"

“Very good!” Mann nodded emphatically.
