Chapter 308, New Life in the Empire (Part 1)
With the formal establishment of diplomatic relations between the Empire and the Earth Federation, the Earth Federation's embassy in Chang'an City, the capital of the Empire, Yanhuang, also officially began to operate. Of course, at the target stage, they could do very little.
Because there are no people from the Earth Federation in the Yanhuang Empire, and no spacecraft on the Earth Federation side has the courage to come to the Empire through the time and space ocean currents, so now although the two sides have officially established diplomatic relations, the Earth Federation Embassy is basically basking in the sun and doing nothing.
Of course, these embassy people came to the Empire, naturally not to bask in the sun. On the one hand, they actively interacted with the Imperial Government in the hope that the Empire could deliver the goods ordered by the Earth Federation to the Empire as soon as possible, mainly large plasma engines, spaceships, space battleships, laser cannons and other high-tech products.
On the other hand, they still did not give up behind the scenes and wanted to spy on the Empire's science and technology through various means, so that the Empire caught many spies.
Zhan Fei, who is responsible for the Empire's national security, is also ruthless. As long as the spies are caught, whether they are descendants of Yanhuang or not, they will disappear completely from this world, which severely shocked the group of people in the Earth Federation Embassy.
There weren't too many people coming here, and dozens of them were killed by the Empire at once. There weren't enough people, and they were too embarrassed to ask the Empire because it was not glorious, so they could only swallow their bitterness.
On the other hand, the first batch of nearly 70,000 immigrants from Earth quickly integrated into the Empire. The Empire was established by the descendants of Yan and Huang, and most of everything was naturally inherited from the previous Earth. The immigrants were all descendants of Yan and Huang, and the Empire made special arrangements on purpose, so there was no difficulty in integrating into the Empire.
There was no need to worry about language communication problems, coming to the Empire was like going home, and there was no need to worry about life. The house was a villa allocated by the Empire, which countless Chinese people dreamed of but could not get. As for medical care and education, it was completely free, and there were government subsidies for families with children. All walks of life in the Empire were thriving, and it was very easy to find a job.
It can be said that when these immigrants arrived at the Empire, there was no difference in life in another country and no need to change. Of course, the Empire naturally had its own rules, and many things still needed to be learned and adapted.
In the Xuanwu residential area of Chang'an City, when the sun gently sprinkled into the room, the early birds outside began to chirp. The ecological environment of Yanhuang Star is very good, with a wide variety of biological species. Many birds are not afraid of people at all, but hope to be with humans, because the people of the empire will throw some corn kernels, bread crumbs, rice grains and other things from time to time.
Especially in the residential area, various small birds cheered in groups among the trees. Many species have not been named by the biological scientists of the empire yet, because there are so many species that sometimes they have to use methods such as sparrow Yanhuang Star subspecies 1, 2, 3 to name them.
Lu Yuan gently stretched his waist, got up and opened the window. The refreshing air rich in oxygen ions came with a trace of morning moisture. Although this house is not as luxurious as his house on Earth, the air is definitely much better than the air in the capital of China.
"A new day has begun!"
After Lu Yuan washed up, he went downstairs to the restaurant. His wife Bai Tingting had already prepared breakfast very virtuously. When his family was poor, his wife also made breakfast every day. But later, when they became rich, they also hired a nanny. Now that they came to the Empire, Bai Tingting has returned to the past.
"It's delicious, wife, your cooking skills have improved."
Lu Yuan praised while eating breakfast. In fact, this breakfast is much worse than before, after all, it has been a long time since he made it, but he is still very grateful to his wife. She can share hardships with him and can also enjoy wealth with him. Such women are rare in a materialistic society.
"Some food can't stop your mouth. After eating, wake up the children quickly, otherwise it will be bad if they miss the school bus."
Although Bai Tingting said this, she was happy in her heart. Since coming to the Empire, although she has to do many things by herself, it is much more than before.
But Bai Tingting found that she was more energetic when she was doing things, unlike before when she had nothing to do and didn't know how to kill time. At the same time, she also found that her family was more harmonious. Her husband went to get off work on time, and she took care of the children and cooked at home. Compared with the past, family members communicated more and had a more harmonious relationship.
So even though she felt very tired sometimes, she still felt that it was all worth it. She was originally a good wife and mother who put family first, otherwise she would not have followed her husband to immigrate to the Empire, so she also saw the slight change in her family and was happy in her heart.
Lu Yuan woke up his eldest son and second son who were about to go to school, urged them to eat breakfast, and looked at the time. It was still 7 o'clock in Yanhuang Star time. Because Yanhuang Star had 26 hours a day, it was still early at this time. He would have to go to work after 9 o'clock.
"I'll go mow the lawn in front. Other people's lawns are very beautiful. We can't be worse than them."
Lu Yuan said to Bai Tingting as he went out. The lawn mower he bought yesterday arrived, and he could finally start mowing the lawn. His family had been here for a short time, so the front garden and the back garden had not been well taken care of. But the neighbors next door had theirs neatly and many of them were very beautiful.
"Hum~~~"
The sound of the lawn mower continued to sound, and the messy garden began to look good.
"Mr. Lu, good morning!"
The neighbor next door had also gotten up at this time and was preparing to trim the flowers and plants in the yard, because on the Chinese side of the earth, basically people had never lived in a villa with a garden in front and a garden in the back, so in the empire, the citizens of the empire valued their own gardens and gardens very much, and they liked to trim the flowers and plants, trim the lawns, etc.
"Good morning!"
Lu Yuan also smiled and greeted his neighbors. With this kind of villa-style distribution, the relationship between neighbors is naturally not comparable to that between high-rise residential buildings. Everyone is familiar with each other and has close contacts with each other.
"Ding~~"
A horn sounded, and Lu Yuan looked and saw a yellow school bus slowly approaching on the road.
"The school bus is here, hurry up and go to school."
Lu Yuan shouted to his family, and soon the two naughty little guys ran to school with their schoolbags on their backs. In the empire, all children go to school by school bus, and parents are not allowed to pick them up. The purpose is naturally to cultivate children's independent ability, and another aspect is to cultivate a collective consciousness.
Everyone is the same, even if you are the child of the emperor Li Fu of the empire, you also go to school by school bus, and it is naturally easier for you to integrate with each other. It's not like here on Earth, where you go to school by BMW and he goes to school by electric bike. You know how to compare at a very young age, and you are divided into circles. You know how to look at people with snobbish eyes at a very young age.
Children from wealthy and powerful families will gradually develop a sense of superiority and look down on children from poor families, while children from poor families are more likely to have low self-esteem, which will affect their future growth and is also a pressure for adults, because no one wants to perform worse than others in front of their children.
But it is different in the Empire. The Empire itself emphasizes fairness, justice, and openness. Even the houses everyone lives in are the same. This is even more true in education, where they pay more attention to this aspect.
It is not just a matter of school pick-up and drop-off. This is also true everywhere in the school. For example, the clothes worn are required to be unified, the school arranges labor classes, etc., and all school supplies are also distributed free of charge, etc., in order to cultivate this spirit.
The Empire can do this because the environment of the Empire is very safe. First of all, there is no need to worry about human traffickers. Since the establishment of the Empire, there have been no major cases, so the police are just helping grandpa and grandma find their way home.
As for road safety, it is even more so. The road is a distance away from the residential area, and there are special guardrails on the road. There are now buses, school buses, garbage trucks and bicycles on the roads of the empire, and there are no private cars at all, so vehicles are very rare, and they are also equipped with various high-tech, the purpose is naturally to create a safe environment for the society.
So parents in the empire can let their children go to school by themselves without worry. In fact, in many countries, children go to school by themselves, but in China, because the one-child policy has been implemented for a long time, there are few children in the family, plus various bad reports, China's roads are indeed unsafe, so it will cause the phenomenon that children in China have to be picked up and dropped off when going to school.
There are many children in every household in the empire. If they are afraid of this and that, adults will have no energy to work, so the safety of the social environment has always been the focus of the imperial government, and it has been working hard for it.
"Study hard and don't play around."
Lu Yuan looked at the two children and smiled and told them. He thought this was good. When he was on Earth, he always arranged for a driver to pick him up. The children also studied in aristocratic schools, so it was inevitable that they would develop some bad habits. But when they came here, they corrected them quickly. He was also very pleased. After all, every parent hopes that their children will grow up healthily and well.
