Reborn in the 1980s: A scientific research leader cultivates the land to serve the motherland

Chapter 486 Demarcation Line

An Ning followed the scavengers to the so-called slums in the XC area.

It may not be so accurate to say that it is a slum, but it is indeed very poor, the kind of place that looks very poor at a glance.

All the houses are self-built houses, which are supported by several wooden boards and covered with straw curtains.

The low-slung mud houses can be regarded as the level of the rich here.

The people here have no light in their eyes, only numbness, they work numbly, and live numbly.

The arrival of An Ning is incompatible with this place, being watched by most people, some people's eyes are more presumptuous, the feeling of stripping people naked with their eyes.

For people with such gaze, An Ning's counterattack is very effective.

She casually picked up a stone on the ground, stared at the other person's indescribable position, exerted force on her hand, the stone was crushed into powder, and fell from her fingertips.

An Ning gave a provocative look: If you have the ability, come here!
An Ning, who lost seven or eight stones along the way, without exception, all eyes disappeared, and even his body trembled.

The little girl who led the way went from surprise to admiration to full of interest.

"Eat more, exercise more."

An Ning's words made the girl's eyes lose light, and she couldn't get enough.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to—"

An Ning felt a little guilty.

"It's okay, we're used to it."

The woman took An Ning to the place where their mother and daughter lived. The area was less than five square meters. The top was a piece of broken gypsum board, which should be the most unsafe kind of lime wool, and the ground was the original ecological mud.

A wooden plank that does not count as a bed, and a house with air leaks everywhere, in this cold winter, it is hard for An Ning to imagine how they will survive.

"You sit."

The woman embarrassedly handed An Ning a four-legged bench that needed to be pieced together.

"thanks."

An Ning sat down without disgust, and the mother and daughter opposite were waiting for An Ning to ask questions.

"May I take the liberty to ask, why are you here?"

"Ah——we have no money, and we don't need to spend money here..." The woman continued after speaking: "Actually, we are not from Beijing. I came here with my husband to work. People say that life in big cities is good. If we can make money, we will come.”

"Just one month after I came here, my husband died on the construction site."

"The boss gave 500 yuan in compensation... I foolishly took the money home, and my daughter was kicked out by my husband's family. There was no one in my natal family, so I took the child to the train and went back all the way. Arrived in Beijing."

An Ning did not make any comments. Sometimes suffering is only for people who are already full of suffering, and the hemp rope is only picky and broken.

"What did you mean when you said you didn't want your daughter and disappeared like everyone else?"

"Ah... this, I don't know if it's true. There are several people missing here recently. Everyone hasn't seen them for a long time. I don't know if they really disappeared or where they went."

"Let me tell you, there are many women here who are like me. Their husbands are dead and their in-laws are too powerful. There are also many whose husbands are alive but domestic violence. In short, they are all women who are suffering."

"It's a mess here, there are bad people, but there are also some good people."

The woman spoke with emotion, and An Ning listened carefully. She asked about the news of the missing people.

There are men and women, but there are some people who are not registered, and no one calls the police when they disappear.

After getting to know An Ning, she left the mother and daughter's home. She didn't leave any money with good intentions. If she stayed, she might not be able to keep it, and it would be dangerous.

Walking out of the tranquility of the slums, the spiritual power unfolded, and a glimpse of the whole picture of the slums.

As the mother and daughter said, there are many women, some work hard to live, some compromise with life, cling to a man, or sell something, just to live.

An Ning withdrew her mental power, thinking a little more in her mind.

Even in the slums, women are still a disadvantaged group, and men are still superior to them.

This is contrary to the education An Ning has received since she was a child. Humans in the interstellar world only recognize contributions, regardless of gender.

She turned to leave.

"Snowing."

White snowflakes fell, An Ning stood on the decomposition line, and with the spread of spiritual power, he saw two worlds.

On the one hand, the children were cheering, running and jumping on the street, happy with the falling snowflakes, and even looking forward to a bigger snowfall, so that they could build snowmen and have snowball fights.

On the other side, adults and children rushed into the houses that were not sheltered from the wind, took out everything available to keep warm, and tried to block the snowflakes that were getting bigger and bigger.

There is no expectation on their faces. Many barefoot people are afraid, afraid of the cold after the snow, afraid of getting sick in the cold, and even more afraid of getting sick without money.

"Sir—what kind of problem have you left me?"

An Ning withdrew her mental strength, and the more she stood in a high position, she realized how difficult it was to realize her husband's wish.

She wants to do well, but sometimes she really feels powerless.

There are many things that cannot be solved with money.

An Ning left, her pace was a little heavier than when she came, and there is a long way to go, so let's take it step by step.

An Ning, who left the slum, first went to find Yu Zheng.

In Yu Zheng's home, An Ning sat on the single sofa and ordered Yu Zheng to do things.

"Look for Leader Zhao to advance the matter of patents. After the patent is successful, follow the previous arrangement to promote the use of patent fees."

"Second thing, I'm going to build a school, a girls' school, with no age limit, and a girl's school that specializes in cultivating skills. For this matter, first make a plan, step by step, and come to me if you need money."

"The third thing is to increase Yin San's salary, let him recruit people himself, expand the team, and investigate the missing persons incident in the XC slums."

An Ning explained everything, and Yu Zheng wrote down all of them.

"Yu Zheng, you can do it with confidence and boldness. If you need to recruit people, you can recruit people. I believe in you."

"Yes, I know."

An Ning was about to leave Yu Zheng's place, and happened to meet Li Chengze who was coming back from get off work.

"master!"

Li Chengze shouted excitedly, "Master", without An Ning asking, he just said it all.

"Master, I just wanted to visit you. I received an invitation from a foreign school. Do you think I will go?"

"I'm worried that I'm so good, what if they don't let me go back, but I still want to see, what is the gap between us and them, master, what do you think I should do?"

How to do?
An Ning patted Li Chengze's shoulder with one hand and said, "Don't worry, go boldly, whoever dares to detain you, with Master here, I can get you out of prison."

Li Chengze looked at An Ning.

"Master, why do I think you looked forward to it when you talked about robbing the prison?"

"Well, is there?" An Ning pretended to look at Yu Zheng, and asked solemnly, "Is it so obvious?"

"master---"

"Hehehe, okay, don't worry, I'm here for everything, don't worry."
