Chapter 75: The remains of the forged "Australian Song Empire" s: Explain why it is not possible to make every time traveler a senator, because the term senator has too strong a political connotation, and only the Lingao family of 500 people uses it. yznn can't let thousands of other time travelers accommodate these five hundred people.
Secondly, the time-travel forces in the Americas have been here for eleven years and have been seriously integrated with the natives of this time and space.
The identity of the time-travelers and the natives is relatively blurred.
If the division is promoted rashly, it will create artificial barriers.
Therefore, the downgrade of the Lingao elders to citizens is just a change of name.
Their property, power and founder status within the Lingao Group have not changed.
They are still called chiefs and are still major shareholders.
Later, the Senate was renamed the General Meeting of Shareholders. , the executive committee was renamed the board of directors.
As for other travelers who travel alone, they are only called citizens and have a benefit, but do not enjoy shareholder privileges to distinguish themselves.
There is a big difference between soldiers of the same military rank with medals and without medals.
There is also a big difference between citizens of the same time traveler with shares and without shares.
In an off-road vehicle next to this bustling desert construction site, Levi, the highest representative of the "Australian Travelers" and the "Supreme Advisor to the Preparatory Committee of the Australian Republic", was sitting in the passenger seat, holding a Holding a laptop computer, he introduced the construction situation to Wang Qiu.
"You see, this is a design team that once planned a replica Yin Ruins theme park project in Henan.
They secretly conducted survey and planning in the name of tourism development at the same location in Australia in the modern world, and extensively consulted with various travelers in this time and space.
With the opinions of the country, and adding some elements of Nanyang and Indian styles, the design of the ruins of Songcheng, the lost capital of the Australian Song Empire, was finally finalized after several revisions."
Li Wei pointed at the design renderings on the LCD screen and introduced to Wang Qiu with great interest, "Over there is the Daxiangguo Temple in Australia and Song Dynasty.
On the square platform is the Daxiong Hall.
We are going to install a large stone Buddha."
Following the direction he pointed out, Wang Qiu squinted and saw that the construction workers had poured cement into a square platform at that place.
Then, an employee held a pile of stones that had been shrunk with a shrinking light and carefully It was placed on the cement platform and spliced together to form a Buddha statue.
Then it was restored to its original shape.
In an instant, it became as high as three stories.
Under the scorching sun, the majestic giant Buddha looked quite majestic.
Next, the construction workers placed a number of smaller statues of Guanyin, Arhat, Peacock King Ming, and even stone statues of Jigong, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie in a certain order around the giant Buddha, as well as various Various stone tables, chairs, stone lanterns and broken stone pillars were randomly destroyed with a small amount of mining explosives, and some broken bricks and broken tiles were deliberately thrown around.
It was done.
Wang Qiu, on the other hand, watched in the off-road vehicle with his eyebrows twitching, "This is why the Daxiangguo Temple just randomly placed a few statues on the foundation, and then threw a bunch of garbage, not to mention a decent house, without even a complete wall."
There are no walls, so it can be regarded as a temple.”
"This is normal.
It is a ruin after all."
Li Wei replied disapprovingly.
"According to the historical background, all the wooden temple structures were burned down in the wars during the collapse of the Song Dynasty.
There are only stone Buddha statues.
It has been preserved.
In addition, at the gate, there is a stone archway for the Imperial Palace, plus a few stone tablets with inscriptions, which is enough. " Wang Qiu thought for a while after hearing this, took out the telescope and took a closer look.
He found that there were indeed several holes left in the corners of each cement platform, pretending to be places for placing wooden pillars.
After the completion of the work, the construction workers also deliberately They piled firewood around the Buddha statue, doused it with gasoline, and lit several blazing bonfires to create the illusion of a burning temple.
I have to admit that the fake ancient city ruins were actually quite detailed.
But then there is another question, "But where did you get so many such big Buddha statues?
Although Sanya has been using Doraemon's black technology props to produce various sculptures in recent days.
But many of these Buddha statues don’t look like It's new, but it looks like it has been exposed to the sun and rain for a long time."
Pointing to a Guanyin statue that was obviously bumpy and full of traces of time, Wang Qiu asked with some confusion, "Is it a real ancient Buddha statue?
, have you moved to this desert to fake it?”
"You're kidding, how could you throw real cultural relics into the desert?
A few years ago, the domestic construction and tourism industries were overheated, and many Buddhist theme parks, Taoist theme parks, Xianxia theme parks, and antique architectural themes were built.
There are many things in the park that I can’t tell what they are.

Themed man-made scenic spots bloomed everywhere like a plague, without conducting any market research in advance, regardless of whether there were so many tourists nearby.
As a result, many theme parks suffered losses year after year and could not continue to operate.
In the end, they It has become an overgrown ruin.”
Li Wei replied calmly, "The central government just sent people to search those abandoned scenic spots, and they got so many stuff.
These statues were littered everywhere before and no one cared about them, so they certainly didn't look much better.
Yes, there are even statues covered with grass. , it’s a pity that Doraemon’s shrinking lamp cannot be used in our main plane, otherwise there would be an illegal Buddha statue fifty meters high.
We can get this Buddha statue from the top of a mountain in Guangdong.
It's blocking a highway and is currently being prepared for blasting."
"No wonder you have been passing through the time and space gate these days, rushing to transport all kinds of messy things to the Sanya base, and pouring various reliefs and statues with cement on the spot in Sanya.
I thought you were planning to use them for decoration in Sanya.
What about the cityscape?”
The corner of Wang Qiu's mouth twitched as he saw more and more strange statues, erected or randomly discarded in various corners of this fake ruins in the desert.
Among them were relatively "normal" statues of Confucius chanting sutras and goddesses.
There are also obvious discrepancies between the scattered flowers and the portraits of ladies in ancient costumes.
The Venus de Milo, the stone statue of a cadre in Chinese tunic suit, the bronze statue of a boy holding a torch that seems to come from a demolished Children's Palace, the stone statue of Lu Xun sitting on an armchair, and the statue of a muscular male athlete lifting dumbbells are all in line with the era and cultural background.
It's all kinds of and strange.
All kinds of smaller pottery statues, bronze statues and stained glass handicrafts were also pulled over one by one and discarded randomly in every nook and cranny of this "unfinished ruins".
Next, the things left by the construction team on this fake ruins became more and more weird.
Even some large clay figurines of ancient costume characters from Japanese anime were pulled into the desert. .
When Wang Qiu saw a statue of Lenin in a coat erected in the large square in front of the "Aussong Palace Site", he finally couldn't help but start complaining to Li Wei again.
"Hey, Buddha, Confucius and fairies are all related to the remnants of the Song Dynasty.
But what are these statues obtained later?
Lu Xun, Lenin, athletes, young pioneers, mechanics, etc.
How is this so mind-blowing?
It’s so weird” "So this is the Australian Song Dynasty and not the Southern Song Dynasty, Comrade Xiao Wang."
Li Wei lectured Wang Qiu with a proud look on his face.
"The Australian Song Empire in our setting is not a miniature replica of the Southern Song Dynasty, but It is an advanced country that has completed the industrial revolution, a post-AD Atlantis.
Naturally, it cannot be the same as the Southern Song Dynasty in all aspects, but must have a step-by-step development process, at least in the At the end of the Australian Song Empire, the daily life of the residents should be similar to those of the traveling groups currently entrenched in Hainan Island, Vladivostok, North America and South America.
Therefore, the Song City ruins we created in Australia must have both.
The characteristics of traditional Chinese civilization should not forget the roots of China, but also have an atmosphere of industrialization and modernization, so as to be in line with the daily style of those transnational groups. " He concluded this, which seemed to make sense, but the new statue that appeared on the construction site the next moment made Wang Qiu stunned again, "I said that even if it has an industrial style, we should have some workers and peasants.
The statues of Soldiers and Young Pioneers are pretty much the same, but what happened to the cement-cast Transformers over there?
It turned into a science fiction style.
It doesn't look like Megatron."
"Ah, that's the planned King Kong Temple over there.
In order to reflect the Australian and Song Dynasty style, we just got a few Transformers statues, so we just brought them over and used them."
Li Wei said coquettishly, "Transformers are also King Kong anyway.
Well" How incredible is this?
Is the Vajra Temple used to worship Transformers?
Imagining a group of ordinary people dressed in Song Dynasty costumes, kneeling down with great piety and burning incense and praying at the feet of Transformer Megatron, Wang Qiu found that he didn't know what expression to make other than rolling his eyes.
He only felt the nerves in his temples. twitching in fits and starts Of course, the ruins of a city cannot really become the ruins of a theme park with just a variety of statues and small artifacts.
Therefore, the main task of the construction team or counterfeiting team is to build the city itself.
Because the workload of building a city wall was too arduous, according to the design drawings, this "Song City" ruins did not have a city wall, and the urban area was scattered directly on both sides of the dry river bed.
In order to make the disguise more realistic, the construction workers also used Doraemon's magical prop Mole Gloves to dig many trenches and artificial rivers on both sides of the river bed, which served as the source of domestic water and sewage drainage channels for "Song City", and even I deliberately threw a few broken boats into the artificial river.
Although the place is now so dry that not a drop of water can be seen, except for scalding sand or scalding sand.
The next step is to build "ruined walls" one after another in the vast urban area.

This is a very hard and repetitive work.
Fortunately, as long as the foundation is leveled, the walls can be built in random directions, and the roofs It's completely unnecessary.
Then, one pickup truck after another shuttled back and forth in the desert, collecting antique pottery pots, furniture, baskets, etc. that had been used by various extras for a long time from various costume film and television prop groups in the modern world.
Baskets, bowls and chopsticks, rags, writing brushes, etc., were scattered scattered among the ruins of various houses, although these houses were never complete, and on the streets between the ruins of houses.
In addition, many broken porcelain fragments were scattered among the houses. here to show the Chinese characteristics of this place.
Even fresh garbage such as leftover fish bones and kangaroo bones were collected from near the "Cosco" survivor camp in Darwin Port and scattered in various corners of the site in order to create a more realistic look.
In addition to private houses, in order to show the level of industrialization of this "Australian Song Empire", various abandoned factories scattered in the suburbs are also an important project in the construction of the "Song City" site.
Huamei, Lingao and East Coast Republic all provided their Scrap machinery.
The abandoned factory became much more realistic after everyone deliberately smashed them to pieces and threw the obtained parts everywhere in the mostly collapsed "factory" that was actually uncovered.
Compared with the above-mentioned "private houses" and "factories", what is more important are the palaces and court ministries of the "Australian Song Empire".
This is also the most expensive part of the entire heritage project.
Even if it is just a foundation, there are all kinds of extremely complicated details in the layout, and the steps, stone piers and tiles must also have exquisite patterns.
Unfortunately, only a few temples need to be built, and most places have It only takes a little fun to arrange a few broken walls, otherwise the amount of work will be overwhelming even with Doraemon's black technology props.
On the several walls that were built, several propaganda experts sent by the central government, under the scorching sun in the desert, used various colors of paint and obvious mix-and-match styles to draw simple and vivid murals. , records the origin, birth, development and growth of the non-existent country "Ausong Empire" and reflects the Yashan Naval Battle There are war scenes of the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty; there are "residents of the Song Dynasty" who cut through the waves to reach the new land on their escape journey; there are "ancestors" who made their way in Australia, and the picture of the struggle to reclaim wasteland and build cities is mixed with the picture of steamships, trains, airplanes, airships, etc.
Mural content of various modern symbols, as well as modern army combat scenes using rifles and artillery.
In addition to the murals, there were also many pre-made exquisite relief panels, which were also transported into this fake palace and placed on the slightly empty foundation.
Next, the construction workers took out many fake antiques that seemed to be bought from modern street stalls, ranging from snuff bottles, copper coins, copper paperweights to porcelain vases, and placed them throughout the palace, pretending to be royal luxuries.
However, the construction team buried explosives, piled firewood, and poured water inside and outside the palace they had just worked hard to build.
Gasoline, and finally in the bursts of deafening explosions and fires, the "Aussie and Song Dynasty Palace" was engulfed by flames, thick smoke and splashing gravel and gravel.
Just like the urchin who spent hours carefully building a castle on the beach at the seaside, he would When he was about to leave the beach and go home, he kicked up a flying kick and knocked the sand castle down, just to satisfy his desire for destruction.
In addition, in the arid wilderness far away from the "urban area", the construction team also sporadically built several imperial tombs of "Emperors of the Australian Song Dynasty".
Of course, as the capital of an ancient country, it would be outrageous to have only private houses and palaces but no military camps and weapons.
Therefore, the construction team built the ruins of military camps, fortresses, weapons depots, and even the cement pier of the military port some distance away from the "urban area".
As for the source of the required weapons, the modern troops of the Far East Company in Vladivostok raided the rear areas of Japan, North Korea, and the Jurchens, and seized a large number of crude and cold weapons such as samurai swords, iron forks, and spears that were basically useless.
The Fubo Army and the Funing Army of the Lingao Group also raided the local sieges of the landlords and gentry in southern Fujian and the Pearl River Delta, as well as the forts of the Ming military guards, and seized a lot of local cannons and Ming Dynasty weapons.
There were shotguns, firecrackers, various swords, bows and spears, as well as slingshots that seemed to be used by children, plus a few tattered, rusted and semi-scraped armors with a long history.
Originally, the leaders of the two crossing groups, Lingao and Vladivostok, planned to recast these unused trophies and recycle the copper and iron inside.
Unfortunately, most of the iron materials were of poor quality and contained all kinds of strange impurities.
Recasting and refining is very troublesome, and until now, not much has been remelted.
Now it's time to put these remaining useless weapons to use again, find someone to pick out those without inscriptions, throw them randomly on this artificial ruins, or place them in the fort's gun emplacement, and then use them together Explode to the sky However, the number of discarded weapons that the two time-traveling groups could provide was still obviously insufficient compared with the scale of the ruins, so the personnel from the relevant departments had to raid the modern world's costume prop companies and collect many antique weapons used in movies.
All children are lost When we arrived in the Australian wilderness here, we deliberately cut off many spear shafts, chopped off the sword blades, and pointed the muzzles of the cannons at the palace, thereby creating the illusion of a civil war, in order to visit those foreign countries who did not know what was going on.
The authors hint at the final outcome of this "Australian Song Empire".
Finally, although the ruins of the city are well built, a lost city cannot be without corpses and cemeteries.
So the Lingao Travelers Group had no choice but to search around Hainan Island under the request of the central government and the decision of the Chinese League, and finally found several mass graves where poor people, refugees, and death row prisoners were buried.
Then he pinched his nose and dug out the rotten bones, and brought them to the construction site to pretend to be dead citizens.
Although the above-mentioned fraud is still a bit blunt, it is easy for savvy people to see the flaws.
Fortunately, the almighty nature will help cover up any abnormal traces.
The meteorological environment in the desert area near Darwin Port is very harsh, with sandstorms, tropical storms, thunderstorms and tornadoes all It is a common occurrence.
As long as it is destroyed a few times by tornadoes and tropical storms, and is buried in some places by sandstorms, it is probably enough to look fake.
All in all, with the technological content of the ruins of "Song City", it is estimated that it will not be able to hide it from archaeologists hundreds of years from now.
However, Huameng does not have such extravagant hopes and only hopes that within a few decades or even ten years, The Westerners who rule the world's oceans are deceived into believing that the ruins of the "Old Capital of the Australian and Song Empire" located in the seaside desert are true: but It is conceivable that when the Dutch and other European navigators learned the location of this "Lost City" and swarmed there in ships, there would be scenes like "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Tomb Raider" here.
"The wonderful scenes, as well as the tragicomedy interspersed with various dramas of loyalty and betrayal, conspiracy and bravery, eh, why does it feel a bit like playing a monkey game?
But no matter what, as long as the above scene can be realized, the purpose of forging the ruins of "Song City" in the Australian desert will be completely achieved. oshow7:
