Chapter 1 Arriving at Y Area

Su Mo left according to the signs. As soon as he stepped out of the airport exit, a group of enthusiastic touts approached him.

"Sir, take my car, my car is cheap and clean."

"Sir, my car is new."

......

Su Mo kept waving his hand in refusal and walked through the enthusiastic crowd. According to the strategy he had researched, he could take a passenger bus across from the airport.

After a while, Su Mo took a lot of effort and finally arrived opposite the airport.

There, old buses were parked in a mess, and people were manually selling tickets in front of each bus.

Su Mo frowned slightly. He felt something was wrong. The city he had arrived in was considered medium-sized in Y area, wasn't it? Why were the public facilities so poor?

If it weren't for the occasional flying car passing overhead, he would have suspected that he had traveled through time.

It was as if the glory of the Federation had not shone on this place.

Just as he was thinking, a cow leisurely walked past Su Mo, and the corner of Su Mo's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

He then walked towards the bus ticket seller for the City of Saye.

"Give me a ticket to the City of Saye."

"Do you want a seat, standing ticket, or hanging ticket?"

"A seat..."

Su Mo touched his forehead, his head was a little aching. He felt that his choice of a sightseeing route might have been a mistake.

"5 Federation credits."

"Here."

Su Mo was very surprised after hearing the price, it was so cheap.

You must know that Su Mo was used to measuring things in star credits when he spent money in the Imperial Capital.

"This is your ticket."

The ticket seller handed Su Mo a handwritten paper ticket.

Su Mo took the ticket and got on the bus. His seat was by the window.

There were many passengers on the bus, but even if there were empty seats, many people were standing. They looked at Su Mo curiously from time to time.

Su Mo just pretended not to see them.

Not long after, the bus drove off.

Su Mo looked at the time on his phone. Under normal circumstances, it would take three hours to reach the City of Saye. He leisurely looked at the scenery outside the window.

The highway was full of virtual billboards.

"Skefinli Biological Company, giving you new hope!"

"Want to get rich overnight? Want to make money while lying down? Want to contribute to the progress of mankind? Skefinli Company looks forward to your joining."

......

Su Mo looked at it for a while, slightly surprised.

The name of this company called Skefinli sounded familiar. He seemed to have seen it on the rolling publicity column for bidding.

When the bus drove out of the city and arrived at the village.

Su Mo saw doctors wearing white protective suits registering and doing preliminary physical examinations for a row of people.

People who completed the registration and physical examination could also receive a small amount of Federation credits.

Everyone looked happy.

A strange look appeared on Su Mo's face, but he didn't care.

More than an hour later, just as Su Mo was lost in thought, the bus suddenly stopped.

Su Mo looked out and saw a group of men with beards, guns, and local military uniforms stopping the bus.

They got on the bus and scanned the passengers.

Every passenger quickly lowered their heads.

At this time, the driver quickly put on a smile, took out a stack of prepared Federation credits from his pocket, and handed it over.

The leading captain looked at it and got out of the car with his men.

Just then, a gunshot rang out, scaring everyone.

Su Mo poked his head out and saw a young man falling in a pool of blood.

Just now, a few soldiers stopped a car, dragged the driver out, and threatened him. The driver refused and argued with them, and was shot dead.

The captain who inspected Su Mo's car had long been accustomed to it. He waved his hand at the driver.

"It's none of your business, go!"

The bus soon started and left here.

Su Mo turned his head and chatted with a young man wearing glasses sitting next to him.

"Is it okay for them to kill people like this? Aren't they afraid of sanctions from the Federal law?"

"You shouldn't be from our Y area, you don't know the situation here. Federal law doesn't work here. We all have regional autonomy here. Only the local city lord has the final say. Didn't you see that our car has to pay extra money when it passes by? And the so-called Federation is actually just a group of stronger people united together. They follow the laws of the Federation, and we don't even have the qualifications to follow them. Not to mention anything else, just that biological company, did you see their advertisements along the way? Their recruitment is actually for lab rats. I don't know how many medical accidents happen every year, has the Federation ever cared about it?"

The young man in front of him explained.

"Well, maybe it will be better in the future."

Su Mo couldn't help but shook his head.

"It won't be better. If there is no bad place, where will the cheap labor and objects of oppression come from?"

"Uh, I don't know what to call you."

"Gan Er."

Gan Er introduced himself.

"Um, let me ask you a question, have you heard of Mo Bo Ke?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

Hearing Su Mo's words, Gan Er quickly gestured for Su Mo to be quiet.

"Don't mention this name, we are about to reach the border of the City of Saye. That Mo Bo Ke is the city lord of the City of Saye, and also a member of the Federal government. He has connections everywhere!"

Gan Er said to Su Mo in a low voice.

Su Mo kept twitching his mouth when he heard this. Yo, he hadn't seen him for a few years, but this Mo Bo Ke seemed to be doing pretty well.

"Don't be so afraid, he probably isn't that great. If he was really awesome, the City of Saye must have developed well, right? Why isn't there any direct transportation?"

"The City of Saye is considered good in Y area. The reason why there is no direct public transportation facility is to facilitate their own control and deliberately create regional non-circulation. You know, they even have private interstellar airports there."

Gan Er explained to Su Mo.

Su Mo couldn't help but complain, this guy was still so reckless.

Just as Su Mo and Gan Er were chatting enthusiastically.

The bus stopped again. On the opposite side of the road, a row of top luxury flying cars blocked the road against the traffic, followed by a group of soldiers, and a number of terrifying third-generation mechas.

At this time, several soldiers ran over briskly and laid a red carpet to the front door of the bus.

Mo Bo Ke, dressed in jewels and extremely luxurious, got out of the car, and a beautiful girl was holding an umbrella to shield him from the sun.

Su Mo couldn't help twitching his mouth when he saw this. This guy was a lot fatter than before.

What had he been doing these years?

Everyone on the bus looked terrified. They had never seen such a battle before.

Gan Er was also trembling. He had just been talking about Mo Bo Ke, but he didn't expect to run into him now.

Su Mo patted Gan Er on the shoulder and said to him, "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

After saying that, Su Mo got off the bus under everyone's gaze.

Mo Bo Ke saw Su Mo, grabbed the parasol from the beautiful woman next to him, and ran up to Su Mo with a flattering smile, shading him from the sun.

"Lord Su Mo, you're here!"

"Didn't I tell you not to pick me up?"

Su Mo replied helplessly.

"How can I not pick you up? I heard you were coming, and I was so excited that I couldn't sleep. You don't know how much I miss you."

Mo Bo Ke said with a flattering face, constantly complaining in his heart that if his clumsy subordinates accidentally offended Su Mo, causing his impression to collapse, it would be a huge loss.

"Okay, don't say those disgusting things, let's go to your house."

Su Mo's goosebumps rose.

"Okay, this way please!"

Mo Bo Ke quickly sent Su Mo into the car.

On the bus, Gan Er was stunned when he saw this scene. He couldn't figure out who the young man in front of him was, that he could make Mo Bo Ke so respectful.

......

More than half an hour later, the convoy entered an ultra-luxurious manor covering thousands of acres, planted with various green plants.

There were more than a thousand servants welcoming at the door.

In the center of the manor was a villa built of white stone.

Su Mo glanced through the window and said to Mo Bo Ke, "It seems that you've been doing well these past few years."

"Isn't this all thanks to your care, my lord?"

Mo Bo Ke's words were definitely from the bottom of his heart. It was because of the money that Su Mo gave him that he was able to live so comfortably.
