Chapter 1603 - People Sailing Towards The Future (2/2)

Perhaps because this brought back memories of the past, the two fell into a brief silence.

“Unfortunately, each person is only allowed to carry ten kilograms of luggage.”

“Are there any issues?”

“Nothing… Survival is the most crucial element after all. It’s just a pity to think of my art collection in the basement of my mansion in Los Santos.” Bloomberg smiled, but the smile seemed weak and forced, “I only hope those bugs don’t eat them… It’s hard to say what the oil paintings taste like, but the marble statues should not be nutritious, right.”

“Then how did you deal with those collections in the end?” After Wang Dehai took a sip of the alcohol from the porcelain cup, he looked at Bloomberg and said with a smile.

“I gave them all away.”

“Gave them away?”

“To the Los Santos man who sold me his ticket,” Bloomberg smiled. “Anyway, I can’t take those arts away. If he intends to use those 50 billion to experience the feeling of being rich, then my collections may allow him to feel like the rich in a more realistic way.”

The two laughed simultaneously at this point.

The news that Bloomberg bought the tickets for 50 billion World Dollars became a well-known joke on the Origin starship.

There was nothing more foolish than someone who exchanged the chance to live for a pile of useless paper.

“What are your plans after disembarking?”

“The eldest son of the Loki family wants me to be their economic adviser. They plan to build a colony on Alpha Centauri C, and call it New Boston…” At this point, Bloomberg paused for a moment and said with a smile. I don’t have any further plans. No one can promise that our friendship will be maintained until the colony is built.”

“That makes sense.” Wang Dehai didn’t deny it, and said with a smile, “But allow me to be honest, the only people worthy of being our opponents are the Russians. When you joined the Earth Defense Alliance… It was a bit late.”

“Maybe, these things will become clear after we open our eyes.” Bloomberg did not disapprove of the statement, instead, he just laughed it off.

If the Alpha Centauri was rich in resources, it would be fine. If the planet was poor in resources, then the first thing they need to deal with would be their fellow humans who arrived at Alpha Centauri together.

Almost everyone was conscious of this fact.

They were the elites of human society.

They followed the law of nature, that the fittest survive, more than anyone else.

After all, they were the ones who survived natural selection…

At this moment, a soft female voice rang above their heads.

“SS Origin will enter sub-light speed in 30 minutes. The crew will remind you, please open the hibernation cabin, lie down flat with your hands rested beside your legs…”

The soft female voice repeated these instructions twice in twelve languages.

When her voice stopped, Wang Dehai got up from the chair, downed the remaining alcohol in the cup, and put down the porcelain cup with force.

“Then, I wish you good luck.”

“The same goes for you, God bless you.”

Bloomberg smiled and stood up, toasted Wang Dehai, and walked towards the corridor outside the door.
