Rachel's entourage consisted of more than 20 people, including staff members, personal servants, and armed guards. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info She didn't come to Havana to say hello in advance this time, but shouldered a certain mission of exploration and understanding, hoping to see a real 'Aurora Army'.

Although there were some disputes over registration and disarmament, the entire mission complied with local rules on Rachel's orders. Led by a port guide, the 20-odd people first took a taxi to a hotel to check in.

Cuba's economy has always been underdeveloped, the urban areas are quite old, and the public facilities here were quite average before the cataclysm. However, Rachel found that the public facilities here were better than those in North America.

"Last month, the Department of the Interior unsealed a batch of electric taxis and buses from the United States, all of which are state-of-the-art vehicles. There are already more than 50 bus routes in the city, which has greatly improved our lives. ”

The efficient public transport system greatly expanded the range of people's activities, increased the utilization rate of the urban area, and deepened the Legion's control over the urban population. The hired old guide was very proud of this, and his words were full of pride.

Rachel really has to envy this, the Brotherhood of Steel has a more powerful army, more vehicles, but less investment in people's livelihood.

The electricity grid has not been restored, gasoline is rationed, and it is difficult for people living in North America to leave their homes to travel farther away, and it is almost impossible to go out in search of work and food.

"The people here are better off than we are." As the taxi passed a street corner, one of the attendants who was in the same car with Rachel let out an exclamation. There was a supermarket on that street corner, and roast chicken was sold at the entrance of the market.

That's right, grilled chicken!

The smell of incense wafted throughout the neighborhood and was mouth-watering. For people who have been eating military food stockpiles for months, the smell of it is really uncontrollable drooling.

The Iron Brotherhood also wants to re-develop the breeding industry, but the severe cold of the nuclear winter suddenly drops to minus twenty or thirty degrees, not to mention animals and plants, and people who are not the slightest defenseless will be frozen to death.

Even if there are chickens that survive, they are eaten by people who are dying of starvation, and now that the temperature is rising, they can't find a single chicken alive when they want to develop the breeding industry.

Not to mention chickens, there are too many extinct animals and plants. Chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cows and other livestock, wild birds, insects, nothing can be seen. It can be said that except for some humans with strong self-protection ability, the creatures in the wild are completely unable to resist the sudden onset of nuclear winter.

This can't help but remind Rachel of the warning message sent by Zhou Qingfeng before the nuclear bomb hits. Lawrence escaped from the desperate situation of the nuclear bomb with a large number of men, which also gave him great authority and support during the nuclear winter.

But compared to the 'Aurora Army', which began to prepare for the nuclear winter a month in advance, the Brotherhood of Steel is much more embarrassed. The former not only live well, they actually have chickens to eat.

Not only chicken, eggs, but also a lot of fast-growing vegetables in the supermarket, pigs and fish, and all kinds of goods that are almost extinct in other places.

The subordinates who got off the bus temporarily hated and wanted to scold, originally they all felt that as far as North America was concerned, the Brotherhood of Steel and the 'Enclave' were the only two players who could play at the table, and other forces were not qualified to speak at all.

But the current situation is too unpleasant, and the small life of the 'Aurora Legion' is better than anyone else's.

The old guide also told Rachel and the others that the Legion had carried out extensive production to save itself, and that there were large greenhouses on the outskirts of the city. Coal shipped through Mexico keeps the temperature warm, and lighting is provided by a variety of low-efficiency but extremely practical power generation equipment, and the production of vegetables and meat is increasing every day.

"Last month, the market started offering vegetables like tomatoes, lettuce and cabbage in large quantities. Originally, these foods were only available for the internal enjoyment of the backbone members of the legion, but now ordinary people can also buy them, but the price is a little more expensive. ”

After speaking, the old guide asked, "Can you eat these things in the north?" ”

Rachel was silent for a few seconds and said, "You can eat it too." ”

"Can it be supplied in large quantities?" The old guide asked.

At this time, Rachel didn't want to talk nonsense, so she could only shake her head slightly and said, "It can only be provided to a very small number of people." ”

"Ah...... then you must be one of the honorable few. I've seen the luxury yacht you're on, and you must be extraordinary. If you wish to establish diplomatic and trade ties with our Legion, you can head to the Capitol once you have settled in. The old guide smiled.

"I will." Rachel nodded again, her mind already fluttering. It's not like you can't get the news about the 'Aurora Legion' from various radio stations and radios, but it's better to feel any news in person.

After the taxi arrived at the hotel, the delegation of more than two dozen people was easily settled. Comfy beds, delicious meals, warm hot water, these are not much to Rachel who is already in a high position, but when you think that this is just a hotel, the meaning behind it is completely different.

Rachel was provided with the most exclusive service in the VIP suite, and everything was perfect. They even delivered the day's newspaper so that travelers could stay up-to-date with the latest information on the current world.

"Oh my God! Victor actually ran a newspaper, where did all this news come from? Rachel was amazed to find that the thin four pages of the newspaper really listed the world's major events.

The front-page headline was the ongoing military friction between the Brotherhood of Steel and the Enclave, and there were even some public statements and commentator articles by the leaders of both sides of the conflict. Rachel paid little attention to these things, or it was hard to know.

In addition to the international news section, the newspaper also details the current news inside the Aurora Legion, which contains a wealth of business information about the Caribbean and South America. This is the first time in recent months that the Brotherhood of Steel, who is staying in North America, has heard of South America.

"This kid cares about so many things!" For Rachel, who had been stuck in New York State, a simple newspaper immediately opened her eyes. She immediately asked her staff, "Why didn't we collect these newspapers before?" Has no one ever cared about this public information? ”

In the past few months, it has not been without people who have taken the risk to travel between Havana and New York, including a small number of intelligence agents sent by the Brotherhood of Steel. But now it wasn't until Rachel made a trip herself that she realized that her understanding of the world was too narrow.

However, the group of subordinates who had come to Havana looked at each other, and no one could answer the question.

"Forget it, I don't blame you. No one in the entire Brotherhood cares about this distant place, let alone the people and things here. Rachel sighed and walked to the balcony of the room. The warm sunlight in the sky fell on her face, and she could already feel the slightest warmth, but her heart was not so comfortable.

Looking at the bustling crowd of people in the city, feeling the energy of the city, combined with the seemingly simple but not simple newspaper, Rachel can feel the deep meaning projected behind this.

Victor. Hugo could have stayed quietly in Cuba and became a warlord. He did so much with all his might, he built power, he improved people's lives, and now his eyes are not just on this little Cuba, but on the whole of America. This can no longer be described as ambitious.

This is a man with a heart for the world! (To be continued.) )
