Resurrection Empire

While others abandoned their past knowledge and went all out to learn new knowledge from the Royal Academy of Sciences, Ren Zhong was still the busiest person in the entire fleet.

He also needs to learn new knowledge.

As the helmsman of the entire civilization, he does not necessarily need to learn every category of technology as profoundly as in the past, but he must at least have a superficial understanding of all walks of life and cannot make common sense mistakes.

This resulted in his learning volume being extremely large and all-encompassing, covering all walks of life.

He is turning into a sponge, swallowing up basic knowledge related to almost any core technology.

In addition, Ren Zhong also had to spend a lot of time learning basic information on the politics, military and economy of the Nanxiang Star Cluster.

If he wanted to lead the Origin Star civilization to take root and develop in the Nanxiang Star Cluster, he naturally had to know himself and the enemy to survive a hundred battles.

In addition, he also had to personally lead the team to complete the simulation research of the fleet's complete colonization plan on Nanjiu C.

Since it is known that it is a planet with an extremely harsh environment, I am afraid that the difficulty of landing safely is enough to bring trouble to the fleet.

Both the annual ship and the armed battleship are real spaceships, and their design functions do not include landing on a planet with a complete atmosphere, not to mention that the atmosphere is particularly restless.

So how to transfer the 4 billion people and a large amount of materials and equipment on the ship to the ground has become the number one problem that cannot be circumvented.

Some people have proposed using a large number of eye reconnaissance ships to serve as transportation vehicles.

The performance of the Eye Scout Ship can indeed meet the need for safe landing, but it is a military vehicle after all and does not enhance its carrying function.

If we really have to rely on eye ships, I'm afraid it will take ten years just to land.

It is also unrealistic to modify the eyeship in space.

One is that after a long secret voyage, the fleet's energy and material reserves have been depleted. Secondly, it is also a huge project that takes a long time to transform as many as two million eyeships.

Someone proposed to imitate the space elevator on the Source Star. But this plan was quickly rejected. The never-ending level 14 winds all year round pose a huge challenge to the rappelling materials that is difficult to break through.

Various other solutions are popping up every day and are being brainstormed by a large group of people.

There are also heated discussions on how to establish the first stable base on the surface of Nanjiu C.

Discussions ranged from the engineering design of the site to the need for various new materials.

The biomedical related personnel, mainly composed of the former Mengdu Group, were not idle either, and began to work together to figure out how to rebuild a complete ecosystem on Nanjiu C.

Due to the extremely harsh environment and short lifespan of the atmosphere, there are almost no multi-cellular organisms with complex structures on Nanjiu C. Most of them are lower organisms with simple life forms, such as various heat-resistant and cold-resistant bacteria and other microorganisms. , the ecosystem is blank.

In short, the common goal of most people in the fleet is how to help civilization take root on Nanjiu C as quickly as possible.

However, the more the discussion and research deepened, the contradiction between the current relatively "poor" situation of the Source Star Fleet and the too harsh environment of Nanjiu C still seemed irreconcilable.

In this heated atmosphere, Ren Zhong, who was continuing to provide information on various forces in the star cluster in the office, received a request for permission from a high authority.

Without any prompting from him, Sun Ai directly told him: "Uncle, your old prime minister who likes to pry into people's privacy really wants to see you and says he has something important to report to you."

Ren Zhong ignored Sun Ai's teasing and just said: "Let her come in."

A minute later, Xiao Xingyue, wearing white casual clothes, walked in with a solemn expression.

She frowned, looking worried.

During this sixty-year voyage, Xiao Xingyue spent a lot of time waking up, totaling more than three years. The short three-year biological life span did not leave many traces of time on her body.

Today, she still looks as youthful as she did in the past, but there is an aura of a high-ranking person in her eyebrows because she is in a high position and serves as the core department that controls too many lives to kill and seize power, making her look more... It's a bit solemn and intimidating.

As soon as she entered the door, she went straight to Zhong Zhong's desk and said very fast: "I found something not good in the fleet, and I must take action immediately, but before that, I have to talk to you first."

Ren Zhong stood up, but smiled and waved his hands, "Don't worry, drink a glass of water first to moisten your throat and take a rest."

With that said, he quickly walked to the water dispenser next to him, took out a disposable recyclable ceramic cup, and looked back at Xiao Xingyue, "What do you want to drink? Tea or coffee?"

Xiao Xingyue was stunned and said angrily: "I'm so anxious here, but you still have the leisure and elegance to make tea by yourself while leaving the intelligent auxiliary robot unused. Forget it, give me coffee, thank you."

Ren Zhong hummed and just lowered his head to make coffee.

A few minutes later, Xiao Xingyue looked down at the ceramic cup and discovered that there was a latte art pattern on the top of the coffee in the cup.

"What kind of bird is this? It looks quite unique."

Ren Zhong: "White Swan, I think it suits your temperament perfectly."

"White swan? What is this? Why haven't I heard of it on the Origin Star? Is it a specialty of other planets in the empire?"

Ren Zhong shrugged, "Maybe. In fact, I originally wanted to find you, but you took the initiative to come here first. You came to me because you wanted to say that some people's minds are wandering now, right? After all, the fleet has arrived at the Nanxiang Star Cluster. , some people's ancestral families are here. Now the fleet is in a bad situation, and it is assigned to a planet like Nanjiu C. It is foreseeable that we will have to live a hard life for a long time to come. Let's go all the way For the next sixty years, it is already good that these former vested interests have been able to follow us peacefully and endure the hard life for so long. There is no need to ask for more. Forcing these people to stay is not only against human nature, but also gives them to others in vain. Opportunities to plant insiders among us.”

Xiao Xingyue was stunned for a moment, then she stroked her long hair beside her ears in embarrassment and said, "It seems that I was nervous for nothing and thought it was a big problem, but it turns out that you already knew it. Have you always been there?" Are you spying on everyone through the Internet?"

Ren Zhong pointed to the coffee she was holding in both hands, "It's almost cold, drink it while it's hot."

While Xiao Xingyue was sipping her coffee, Ren Zhong said again: "I respect privacy very much and have never used the Internet to spy on anyone. There is actually nothing mysterious about this. As long as you master the rules, you will naturally be able to master human nature. My major is different from yours. The psychology you study, Xiao Xingyue, is more focused on a specific object. I usually don’t think about it that deeply. I am more accustomed to looking at it from a distance from the perspective of a bystander. The ideological trend of the group changes. People's hearts seem to be complicated, but in fact there are rules to follow."

"Individuals have their own will, and groups have collective thinking patterns. Although the descendants of the Nine Groups were forced by my strength during the journey, they got along well with us and cooperated sincerely with each other. There were also incidents in the Nine Groups There are truly great people like Mavian. In the entire fleet, Mavian is considered to be the outstanding person in the mainstream. But if you change the observation group, things will become different. Among those people, Mavian is in the minority, and It won’t become mainstream.”

"The biggest difference between them and us is that there is a viscount family behind them. Although the status of these viscount families is far lower than mine, after all, they have been operating in the Nanxiang Star Cluster for many years, with rich assets and great wealth. What families do they have? If you have genetic blood, you will naturally have the possibility of taking refuge. It is human nature and understandable."

Xiao Xingyue put down the coffee cup and said unconvinced: "But you are an earl. It is obvious that following you has greater potential and higher ceiling."

Ren Zhong shook his head: "After all, potential is something that has not yet been realized. Whether potential can be truly transformed into power remains to be seen. What's more, before I arrived, I had a life-and-death feud with Uncle Nanxiang. I have great potential. Maybe they can only stay on paper forever. Furthermore, although there is cryogenic slumber, if they want to enjoy power under me, they cannot make no achievements, and they can only spend their short and limited life accompanying me in Nanjiu. c to start a business. Since ancient times, starting a business has been difficult. Why don’t they choose to return to their original clan as early as possible to enjoy the happiness they have gained?”

"Then you really let these people go for nothing?" Xiao Xingyue blinked and said with a disbelieving expression, "If you really plan to do that, you shouldn't open the knowledge to them, right?"

Ren Zhong laughed loudly, "Of course, I can't put a knife on my neck to prevent people from leaving. Their freedom to come and go is protected by the laws of the empire. However, if you want to take people away from me, it is indeed It’s not that easy. Xiao Xingyue, your biggest ideal has always been to become a reporter, right?"

"Of course! It's never changed."

"That's good, you go and recruit a director team. In the next hundred days, your task is to make a documentary."

"What documentary?"

Ren Zhong's expression suddenly became solemn, "It's been a long journey."

"What's the meaning?"

Ren Zhong said slowly: "The name of this documentary is called "The Long Journey". I hope that you, the first reporter of Yuanxing, and probably the best director, will personally direct the documentary from the time we left Yuanxing." Starting from the first day, we have recorded those people and things that are worthy of being remembered one after another. Those heroes who have fought their whole lives for the well-being of others during this journey will be engraved in people's hearts in a more intuitive way."

"Qian Wangshen, Hua Yuelan, Wang Qiao, Ding Canghai, Issu Locke, Ahmed, Ma Wei'an, Huang Xubo... whether they fell in combat positions or scientific research positions, or even those who fell at work Ordinary workers. There must be many, many people who have left enough shining points in their ordinary lives. Your documentary should capture these shining points and illustrate them with real words and pictures."

"I hope that this documentary will be gripping and full of ups and downs, and I hope that it will have real feelings, without exaggeration or lies. I also hope that its length can be controlled to within twenty-four hours, divided into two parts. The first part Let’s talk about ordinary people whose names are unknown, and the next episode will talk about the deeds of well-known heroes. On the penultimate day after we leave the jump channel, I will organize all the fleet personnel to watch the movie together.”

"This documentary will become the common memory of all humans on the Origin Star, and will also become a cultural symbol for the people of Nanjiu C and my Count Ren Zhong. Sacrificing for others and fighting for ideals will become a symbol of our lineage. The main theme of civilization.”

"After all, humans are creatures with emotions and are easily dominated by emotions. I believe that whether they are from the wilderness or from the Nine Groups, as long as the emotions of these people resonate with this documentary, it must be worth looking forward to potential stocks. As for those who are determined to leave us, they have no feelings even after watching this documentary. They will not be very focused on study and work, and have no personal pursuits. To put it bluntly, they are all trash. Just leave. I don’t intend to leave anyone behind, I just want to leave behind everyone who has the same goals as me.”

"Nine viscounts came to me to recruit people. In the end, they could only get away a bunch of trash. Instead, they helped me complete a new round of screening."

"Probability, the most important thing is the word probability."

"You must not underestimate the power of literary and artistic works like documentaries. Technology determines the physical power of civilization, but art is the soul of civilization. What I want you to do now is to help me create the soul of civilization."

"And you, Xiao Xingyue, the former top telekinesis master, the number one reporter on Source Star, the head of the secret review department, and the head of the legal department, are the absolute number one person to complete this matter."

After Ren Zhong finished speaking, Xiao Xingyue opened her mouth wide and was stunned for a long time.

After a long time, she nodded solemnly, "You must live up to your mission."

"Well, go ahead, thank you for your hard work."

Xiao Xingyue took a deep look at Ren Zhong, drank the coffee in the cup with a heavy sip, put the cup on the table, and said: "The coffee tastes good, I will drink it another day. You make it for me. I also I want this pattern."

"Yeah, no problem."

After Xiao Xingyue took two steps out, he turned back and said, "By the way, do I want to talk about you in the documentary?"

Ren Zhong shook his head subconsciously, but after a moment he asked helplessly: "I'm afraid you can't get around me, right? But I don't need too much time. I will die one day. I hope that after I die, in the Origin Star Civilization, Everybody is me.”

Xiao Xingyue's body trembled slightly, and her face suddenly turned pale.

After a moment, she seemed to slowly accept this inevitable objective fact, "Maybe, you are right. Let's go first."

…

Just as the Source Star Fleet was making preparations to truly integrate into the Star Cluster civilization, the performance report of the director of the Resettlement Department had been pushed to Nanxiang Bo Liu An, the Star Cluster military and political officer, in accordance with formal procedures.

They were already awake anyway, and Liu An simply planned to finish processing some of the documents that had been accumulated over the past few years before going to sleep.

He first read the resettlement office report that was marked as the key point by the adjutant. After seeing the names Nan Jiuci and Earl Ren Zhong, his originally gloomy expression gradually relaxed.

After a while, laughter rang out in Liu An's office.

After another moment, Liu An laughed again, especially happily.

It turned out that he had seen a project jointly signed by nine closely related viscount families in the Nanxiang Star Cluster, headed by the Augustus family.

This project is still related to Yuanxing.

After rapid integration, Yuanxing Commercial Transport, which has a thousand annual ships, is rapidly gathering towards South 9c.

After the Origin Star fleet arrives at Nanjiu C, Southgate Augustus will contact Ren Zhong on behalf of the nine viscount families to return the slightly larger Origin Star Commercial Transport Company.

But at the same time, Southgate will comply with the latest version of the Empire Immigration Act amendments and launch an unrestricted talent recruitment invitation to everyone in the Source Star Fleet.

Yes, the invitation is for everyone in the Source Star Fleet, not limited to the blood descendants of the nine viscounts.

Liu An believed that after seeing the unlucky planet Nanjiu C, many smart people under Ren Zhong would naturally understand the principle that people go to higher places and water flows to lower places.

"When the time comes, Ren Zhong will surely suffer heavy losses. By the way, I have to remind Viscount Nan Jiu. The super network nodes of Yuanxing were jointly leased by the nine of them from the royal family, and they should also ask for them back."

"The task is heavy, let's see what you do now. I will let you accomplish nothing during the hundred-year assessment period."
