Ants exploded, I opened a power plant to supply power to the world

Chapter 1 001 Biological "Stowaway"

At the Berea Airport, a handsome young man carrying a bag of luggage slowly followed the crowd to the security check passage at the overseas flight boarding gate. His name is Lin Zhe, and he was assigned here by his company to work.

Generally speaking, in their company, those who can be sent on business trips are basically at two extremes. One type is a leader, no matter how big or small, who receives generous benefits such as business trip subsidies, and business trips are a hot commodity for them.

The other type is a soldier like Lin Zhe, who is an expatriate laborer. Although he is a "white-collar worker", he is not as popular as an expatriate technical worker.

There was nothing except the round-trip economy class ticket and a meal allowance of 300 rubles a day, equivalent to less than 30 RMB.

They also have to endure the differences in diet and climate, as well as the hardship of long journeys.

During this period of time, the car was bumping around in this barren wasteland, and Lin Zhe's butt was almost rubbed with calluses. This "good job" was naturally the most suitable for a newcomer like him with no background in the company.

However, he should have returned home after completing his work a few days ago, but Lin Zhe waited until yesterday to book a return ticket. If it weren't for the accident, he would not have been able to wait even a minute.

The desert here is not only about the terrain, but also about the food. Lin Zhe is almost vomiting after eating Master Kang’s instant noodles these past two days. But apart from instant noodles, Lin Zhe really has no interest in the local stews.

And now, after passing the security check and boarding the plane, I feel like I have stepped halfway home.

……

The airport facilities are not complete and the security check passages are somewhat crude.

He let the staff scan him with a metal detector or something like that. When there was no beeping alarm sound, the security officer waved his hand to signal Lin Zhe to move forward.

The next step is to check the luggage. This step was originally done by machines, but a sign with "Machine Failure" in several languages ​​was placed in front of the conveyor belt of the security check machine, so passengers had to open their suitcases one by one for the staff to check.

The crowd moved and soon it was Lin Zhe's turn. He put down his backpack and unzipped it in front of the foreigner in the wide-brimmed hat. He looked quite serious when checking and poked Lin Zhe's clothes and some personal belongings with his baton.

Two boxes of local specialty canned food, a few sets of clothes, some local handicrafts, a few packs of local cigarettes and some small items, that's all I had in the bag.

Judging from these things and the clothes of the young man in front of him, he is not a wealthy boss and it seems that he will not be able to make any money. However, the handicrafts in the box are small and exquisite and very interesting. If I take them back and give them to my daughter, she will be very happy. At the very least, it will be not bad to have a pack of cigarettes for myself. Thinking of this, the movements of the man in the wide-brimmed hat slowed down.

"Sir, this oak box is nice." The man in the wide-brimmed hat said this without any hurry as there were people queuing behind him. He started playing with it right away.

A small box made of oak, with a glass cover, and inside it seemed to be several insect specimens. Looking closely, they looked like ants, probably wrapped in resin or something, and motionless. It was quite small. It could be worth several hundred rubles if placed on a roadside stall.

Just seeing this small thing in his hand made Lin Zhe's heart suddenly rise to his throat.

Among so many things, he just happened to pick up this box. He couldn't possibly figure out anything, right?

Although he was very panicked at this time, Lin Zhe understood that he must stay calm, at least to prevent others from noticing anything.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Zhe immediately responded to the man in the wide-brimmed hat:
"Yes, I bought it from your place. I liked it so much that I planned to bring it back home as a souvenir."

Hearing this, the man in the wide-brimmed hat also smiled and said, "Of course, our local craftsmen are very skillful."

He was not in a hurry after saying this. Logically, even if he was interested in this thing, he could just play with it for a while. However, when he talked, he was still turning the small wooden box in his hand and had no intention of putting it down.

At this time Lin Zhe also reacted. This guy had other intentions, but if it was for this reason, it would be easy to deal with. He still had some rubles left in his pocket before returning home.

"Yes, sir, these things are really good. Take a look at this." Lin Zhe stretched out his hand and took out another small thing from his backpack and handed it to the man in the wide-brimmed hat. When he gave it to him, he "incidentally" also put a thousand-ruble banknote in his pocket together.

This was the first time Lin Zhe did this, so he seemed a bit "open and aboveboard", but the passengers behind him were not surprised.

The man with the wide-brimmed hat was also an old hand, and he took the money and put it in his pocket very smoothly. As the banknotes went into his pocket, the oak box that had touched Lin Zhe's heart was also put into the suitcase by the man with the wide-brimmed hat.

One thousand rubles, about 80 yuan of RMB. If it was at this price in the past, Lin Zhe would never pay for it. At worst, he would just take it away from him. After all, a small item worth a few dozen yuan is gone, and if he is tough, he will most likely not lose anything.
But now, for the sake of safety, I would pay even a hundred or eighty thousand, let alone eighty. The box contains treasures that will help me escape the fate of being a worker and start my own business for the rest of my life.

"Welcome to beautiful Berea again next time, next one~"

When he said this, the man in the wide-brimmed hat had a hint of pride in his tone. It is always a pleasant thing to make some extra money.

After boarding the plane, finding his seat, and making sure there was nothing wrong with his backpack, Lin Zhe breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though he doesn't seem to have any emotions on the surface, there is already a layer of fine sweat beads under his short bangs. He needs to work more on his mental quality.

After a long flight, most people in the cabin chose to close their eyes and rest, but Lin Zhe couldn't fall asleep at all.
I took out the original small wooden box from my bag, stared closely through the glass outside, and noticed that the antennae of the ants would tremble slightly after a while. Only then did I feel relieved.

Ants are common creatures and their traces can be found everywhere in the world. However, these ants are so special. They are Lin Zhe's treasures.

Just a week ago, Lin Zhe completed his business trip. One day before returning home, he was wandering around the local area and unexpectedly got a necklace with a lightning logo, thus starting his own "Ant Volt System".

Volt Ant, that's what it brings to itself.

I was also confused at that time. I didn't even think about verifying it after returning to China. I directly chose to extract the Queen Volta Ant to verify whether I was hallucinating. I was so lucky.

However, once it is extracted, it cannot be put back, and you can only find a way to bring it back to the country yourself.

These three ants are queens, and any offspring they produce will have the ability to generate electricity.

In other words, as long as they eat, even if they eat fungi cultivated on leaves, they can generate electric current. These electric currents are different from their own bioelectricity. They are quite powerful and can be collected and used artificially.

In this world where electricity can be privatized, Lin Zhe can completely use the things in the box to build an ant-generated power plant, biomass power generation, which sounds very environmentally friendly and high-tech.

The most crucial point is that other power plants charge 60 cents per kilowatt-hour, and 50 cents is the cost, but here, 60 cents per kilowatt-hour, and 50 cents is the profit! I am going to make a fortune!

After thinking this through, Lin Zhe took great pains to carry them with him. It was impossible to just put them in his pocket. It would be bad enough if the ants ran around on his body, but the key point was that he was afraid that he would accidentally crush them to death.

If they are placed in a container, they can be easily detected. The inspection after returning to the country is still relatively strict. Once discovered, the excuse of being an "insect lover" is not an excuse. Biological invasions have always existed. Due to differences in climate, geography and other factors, organisms from other places can easily cause biological hazards when they come to the local area. Therefore, supervision in this regard has been strengthened in recent years.

Maybe he would be lucky enough not to be discovered, after all, the three ants were really small, but Lin Zhe would not allow any possible risks, as the rest of his life depended on these little creatures.

After much thought, I finally came up with this idea: buy a small wooden box and make it into a "handicraft" and bring it back home. Put a layer of hydrosol that melts in water in the box, which can fix the ants without causing any harm.

In addition, a small amount of sevoflurane anesthetic gas and carbon dioxide are injected into them before going to the airport, which can temporarily put the "three little ones" into a coma.

The amount of gas used is the most accurate and safest value that Lin Zhe obtained after conducting dozens of experiments on other ordinary ants, allowing them to fly back to China safely with him while sleeping.
