Alien signal? It seems to be from me.

Chapter 56 Establishing Friendly Extraterrestrial Contact
"Planting records?"

“Aliens also farm?”

New signals are archived and stored in categories.

The Dongxia Space Agency even cleared out an archive room specifically to store paper files related to alien signals.

Although data storage is convenient, there are too many security loopholes.

Even if they use a dedicated military network, there is no guarantee that there will be no risk of leakage or loss due to some loopholes.

However, there will be no such troubles with paper documents. All kinds of information, data, and analysis are stored in physical form in the archives of the Dongxia Space Agency.

Even if there are malicious foreign forces with bad intentions towards these materials, they must first cross the border and take a taxi directly to the Dongxia Space Agency, pass through the downtown streets and finally break through the military jurisdiction and rush into the Dongxia Space Agency, and then find a semi-trailer to load these materials one by one into the car and drive away.

That's enough, I want to start laughing just by listening to it.

This is Dongxia, not India.

Not to mention foreign forces, even if Superman came, he would have to stand on the border and sing the song of a strong army.

Therefore, in terms of security, paper documents have an incomparable absolute advantage.

After opening the security door of the archive room, Zhu Xutai took the document handed over by the other party and frowned slightly after reading it.

I've seen it before, but I still feel uncomfortable watching it again.

He admitted that there had been some advanced civilization filters for alien civilizations before.

There is nothing wrong with this. After all, the image of alien civilization in the film and television works we have been exposed to since childhood is like this.

Even if he's not a Time Lord like in Doctor Who, at least he should be a Lilo and Stitch, right?

Not to mention the Trisolarans, who are pure supermodel monsters.

Being influenced by various science fiction works since childhood, everyone has a nearly stereotypical view of alien civilizations.

High-class, indifferent, and emotionless...

If I had to sum up this filter in one word, it would probably be - out of touch with reality.

That's what everyone thought until they received this signal.

"Farming is fine, but why do you farm it yourself?"

"We still use this traditional method."

Looking down at the information in his hand, Zhu Xutai couldn't help but emphasize it again.

Just think about it, an alien who has already achieved interstellar travel and has easily sent space communication technology to Earth.

Now I am on an unknown alien planet, trying to farm with primitive methods that were eliminated on Earth decades ago, and I have failed miserably.

You bastard! You have to compensate me for my romantic fantasy about alien civilization!

But after the shock, a new idea slowly emerged from his mind: "How about...we help him?"

I can’t say anything else, but we are really good at farming!

Looking back at the five thousand years of civilization history, there are actually two core issues surrounding Dongxia.

Farming and fighting.

Just when the whole world was developing space armaments and the Eagle Sauce was focused on landing on the moon and launching a lunar strike, Dongxia landed first and brought back lunar soil. The first thing it did was to study whether it could be used to grow vegetables.

After the failure, it was even reported on the news broadcast, and the regret was announced in front of the whole world as if it were a big deal.

You can't grow vegetables on lunar soil. The host's face was droopy when he said this, and the regret he felt was truly heartbreaking.

When this news came out, the whole world except Dongxia was shocked.

No?! Who asked you this?
But the Dongxia people just buy into this, as if it’s really a big deal that vegetables can’t be grown on the moon.

The Internet was abuzz with the news, but no one questioned whether this matter was worthy of such a serious official notification.

and so……

Since the alien guy doesn’t know how to grow potatoes, why don’t we teach him?
Unconsciously, everyone's attitude towards aliens seems to have changed.

From the initial vigilance and precautions against extraterrestrial civilizations, to now after receiving so much information, we have gradually regarded this mysterious alien as an alien comrade.

No wonder they would have such a change.

The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle once said that human fear comes from the unknown.

The reason why the Earth was on guard against alien civilizations, and even prepared for war during that period, was because they really didn't know why this unknown civilization contacted the Earth.

Because of the unknown, we can only prepare for the worst.

By the same token, the reason for this change in mentality now is actually because he now understands it too well.

After they carefully analyzed all the signals so far, it was really hard to have any doubts or concerns about this thing.

One of his biggest ambitions is to successfully farm, and his biggest daily entertainment is the aliens who make harassing phone calls to Earth.

Even if he has evil intentions, how bad can he be?
And it is so down-to-earth, just like an Earthling trapped on an alien planet.

"No, I have to discuss this with the director."

After filing the files in his hand, Zhu Xutai closed the security door and hurried to the director's office.

As a country of etiquette.

What we in Dongxia value is reciprocity.

Since the other party has expressed goodwill and given the Earth a space communication technology for free, how difficult would it be for me to help grow some alien potatoes?
After knocking on the director's office door and telling the director his ideas, Zhu Xutai immediately received strong support.

"I think I can."

The director thought for a moment, reached out and patted Zhu Xutai on the shoulder and said, "In that case, I'll leave this matter to you!"

"Invite a few more agricultural experts over. I believe they will be very interested in growing alien plants."

Professional things must be left to professional people.

It's okay for them to grow some green onions on their balconies, but things like alien potatoes are obviously seriously beyond the scope.

I believe that with the help of the Earth's expert group, that unlucky alien will be able to successfully grow alien potatoes.

So, the first step to establish friendly contact with aliens begins from now on.

The director has even begun to think that if the other party's attitude is really so friendly, then whether the matter of the alien signal can be made public at some point.

Since alien civilizations really exist, the current period is obviously the best time to prepare the public for alien civilizations in advance.

Watching Zhu Xutai close the door and leave, the director touched his chin and began to think seriously.

Of course, all of this can only be done after the cosmic communication system has been upgraded.

Otherwise, if communication between both sides becomes a problem, everything will be in vain.
