My ex-girlfriend thought I was poor, so I made 100 million by betting on stones.

Chapter 1646 Final Number of People

"Well, you are right."

Shui Bo understood what Yang Feng meant and said, "You want to ask, how can we bring ordinary people from outside in?"

"Yes, I'm curious about that."

Yang Feng asked.

He had actually sensed from the words of these three people that they had a way to help ordinary people get out.

Shui Bo nodded and said, "This matter actually started a long time ago."

"what?"

"About 2,000 years ago, when we were just starting out here, ordinary people could enter the tunnel at will."

Shui Bo said, "But because a large number of people died in there, the back of the tunnel was blocked by a barrier, and ordinary people are absolutely not allowed to go out."

"Are you saying that... not everyone will die in that tunnel?"

"That's right. In fact, although this tunnel has the pressure to tear the body apart, there are some special ordinary people who can get out even without any practice, just like Xiao Xin."

Shui Bo continued, "Of course, there aren't that many special people outside, but they can still choose to come in, but..."

"It's just very dangerous, isn't it?"

“Yeah, it’s like a lottery game.”

Shui Bo was helpless and said, "If an ordinary person enters the tunnel connecting Chu Village, there may only be a one percent chance of survival."

"That is to say, if we select one million people, in the end, less than ten thousand people will be able to come here alive."

Yang Feng seemed to understand what Shui Bo meant.

Shui Bo sighed and said, "There is nothing we can do about this."

There was helplessness in his words.

"That's why we can only give priority to those ancient warriors who can withstand the pressure of the tunnel. However, the number cannot be too large, otherwise it will affect the operation of the king's soldiers."

Peng Yuanzhi spoke truthfully.

Yang Feng understood what he meant and said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid things will be a little more difficult. After all, even if we choose this path, there is only a glimmer of hope for survival."

He was lost in thought.

"But we still hope to retain some of the people here, and at least preserve most of the traces of the civilization outside."

Peng Yuanzhi spoke truthfully.

This topic is a bit heavy.

Even in the most brutal wars and the most terrible disasters in history, there would never be a situation where only one out of a hundred people survived.

It's like there are a thousand people in a village, but only ten people survive in the end. You can imagine how cruel it is.

"I understand."

Yang Feng took a deep breath and accepted the question, saying, "If that's the case, then we need to select the most valuable people outside, right?"

“Well, that’s what we thought.”

Shui Bo said, "It's already the industrial age outside, so we need those scientists. We will select them and bring them all in. As for whether they can survive in the tunnel in the end..."

Shui Bo did not continue.

"That means there is only one last question left, which is who should we bring in?"

Yang Feng understood.

In fact, Shui Bo and the other two had already made their decision.

Shui Bo looked at Peng Yuanzhi and said, "We also need to ensure that the people we bring in can benefit the original people of our Chu Village, especially the ancient warriors and industrialization."

"Well, after all, it will need to be announced to the public. If the people of Chu Village strongly object, things will be difficult to handle."

Peng Yuanzhi nodded.

Both of them understood that they now needed to find a way to make the people of Chu Village believe that the people they brought in from outside could work together to build a better world.

Only in this way can people on both sides avoid colliding.

Yang Feng didn't say anything, just listened to their discussion.

Because Yang Feng had no intention of commenting on this.

Later, Shui Bo looked at Yang Feng again and said, "Actually, Xiao Feng, we asked you to come here for a very important matter and we need your help."

"what?"

“The selection of personnel.”

Shui Bo became serious and said, "You are the only one who has long-term living experience outside, and you have a very strong team outside. I think when the time comes, how to select these people will still require your help most of the time."

"Well, I think this is feasible. If Yang Feng can help, it will be much easier to select scientists, after all, you grew up in an era of science."

Wu Youan also agreed immediately.

Yang Feng thought for a while, and finally said: "I understand, I will take care of this matter."

"It would be great if you would like to."

Shui Bo laughed and said, "Come to think of it, I have always been worried that you would not accept this plan."

The reason why he didn't call Yang Feng over directly was also due to this consideration.

After all, the cruel selection of only one person surviving out of a hundred is a huge pressure for anyone.

Yang Feng nodded and said, "I will choose them, and I will also find a way to help these people come in safely."

He suddenly smiled at this moment.

"Ok?"

Shui Bo showed a puzzled expression.

Yang Feng did not explain immediately, but said: "I think what the seniors have considered makes sense, so I think the number of people should be the same as the current total population of Chu Village, right?"

"Well, even taking into account the population growth in the next few years, we can only accept 20,000 people at most."

Shui Bo expressed his final conclusion.

After he finished speaking, he looked at Wu Youan and Peng Yuanzhi and asked, "What do you think?"

"I think it's okay, but in order for the people of Chu Village to accept it, these people must have positive values."

Peng Yuanzhi said, "In other words, it would be best if all of them were scientists, top artists, or upright ancient warriors, who would be able to help Chu Village continue to move forward."

The three of them obviously reached a consensus at this time.

Yang Feng understood what they meant and said, "Then I'm afraid you will have to send more people out to investigate..."

"Well, the exit tunnel of Chu Village has been moved to the place you mentioned before."

Shui Bo said this with a smile, "When the time comes, I will reopen certain members of the King's Army to go out, in order to observe the situation outside and select those who can come in here."

"Well, although there are still a few years to go, since we are going to carry out such a large-scale operation, we must prepare in advance."

Peng Yuanzhi also nodded.

Yang Feng also took a deep breath and said, "At least some people can survive."

"By the way, you just said that you have a way to help ordinary people get through that entrance tunnel. Is this... true?"

Shui Bo has always been concerned about this matter, and there is a hint of surprise in his eyes.
