Chapter 545: Princesses
From Qin Feng's standpoint, worldly power and wealth no longer have much significance.
The main reason why we are still carefully managing in each world is that we are the origin of the world. The better and more prosperous the world is, the more origins the starship can extract. In particular, the foundation of the Overworld, although the development of the Kun and Dium Group was inevitably restricted by various constraints due to the inability to use too much extraordinary power, he still did not give up.
There is no other reason, the mission rewards in the main world are relatively rich, and as the country where he was born and raised, Qin Feng still has feelings for Huaguo, and while he is forging ahead, he helps the country develop better, and at the same time obtains more origins, which is a win-win result.
Qin Feng once asked Starship if there were any secrets in the main world that he did not know, whether it was extraordinary power or black technology that did not belong to this era, the answer given by Starship was not very clear, but with his intuition, he could make a judgment close to the truth.
From this, it can be deduced that the rewards of the Overworld quest are so rich, not for nothing, and perhaps one day he will learn all the secrets hidden beneath the water.
Subsequently, Qin Feng went to the surface of the moon to inspect a circle, and the Moon No. 2 city built after his approval was almost completed, with an area of thousands of hectares, farms, industrial zones, schools, residences, hospitals, energy centers, space ports and other facilities, which can meet the living needs of 100,000 people, and is basically a self-sufficient oasis of civilization.
The city is located at the bottom of a large crater, where the terrain is relatively flat, and under the hemispherical transparent cover wall with a diameter of more than 800 meters, is a neatly planned urban area, which is connected to each other by a passage located underground, the cover wall is an organic material with a strength comparable to that of titanium alloy, and there is a high-energy laser air defense system at the edge of the city to ensure that meteorites in outer space will not endanger the safety of the city.
The lunar soil contains a large amount of helium, which can be refined and supplied to the fusion energy tower, which can provide almost unlimited energy, so it is not difficult to maintain the stable operation of such a city.
Luna No. 1 City, which originally existed as a refuge base for civilization, is much larger and can now meet the long-term living needs of 300,000 people, and is home to many important research institutes, military bases, material reserve centers, and genetic databases.
At the beginning, the top of Kunlun had already prepared for the worst, if the war between human civilization and the rotten claw lizardmen was lost, and the dominance of the Blue Star was completely lost, all the human elites would retreat to the moon city in battleships, and the many giant space stations in low-earth orbit combined could also accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.
With such a population size, it can also take on the heavy responsibility of continuing the flame of civilization, and if you are lucky, you will have a chance to fight back and regain lost ground in the future.
In addition, large scientific research bases have been established on the surface of Mars and Venus, which can accommodate a scientific research team of 1,000 people to live for a long time. Mercury, as well as several natural solid-state moons of Jupiter and Saturn, have a large number of unmanned intelligent research stations, and the farthest intelligent probes have been launched near the Oort cloud at the edge of the solar system.
Qin Feng estimated that if no major changes occurred, as long as the empire developed smoothly for another twenty years, the population size could be restored to 1.5 billion, creating a more powerful star fleet and actually controlling the entire solar system.
"By the way, how is the hyperspace transition technology progressing?"
He suddenly remembered that the theoretical system on this aspect had been preliminarily perfected long before the catastrophe struck, and the remaining task was to turn it from an idea into a reality after a great deal of experimentation and research.
At that time, the ambitious major powers have invested huge resources to strive to produce results as soon as possible and open a new chapter for human civilization to enter the sea of stars.
However, after the catastrophe, the vitality of human civilization was greatly damaged, and the limited resources were used to develop military strength and compete with foreign races for living space, and research in this area stalled.
It wasn't until Qin Feng overthrew the Rot-Clawed Lizardmen Empire and led human civilization to regain the dominance of the Blue Star that the development plan of hyperspace jump technology was once again elevated, and it became one of the highest priority projects of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, and received abundant research and development funds.
"Some progress,"
Lin Xihan frowned slightly: "However, there are many new problems, according to the estimation of experts from the Academy of Sciences, it will take about fifteen to twenty years to come up with a practical hyperspace jump vehicle." ”
Qin Feng groaned: "It feels like a little long, can't you advance it?" ”
Shoufu Du Donglin shook his head: "If you want to advance, you have to invest more resources, which will crowd out the progress of other projects, and the current important projects of the Academy of Sciences are not ordinary." ”
The hyperspace transition technology involves a field that is too esoteric and difficult to deal with, perhaps even more difficult than the controlled nuclear fusion project that is being carried out in the Overworld. Today's empire is thriving, but the overall national strength has not fully reached the peak of human civilization before the catastrophe, so it is natural that there is no urgency in this regard.
"Do you have any information on hyperspace transition technology here that I can redeem?"
Qin Feng thought about it and secretly asked the starship center.
"Of course there is, at the cost of a billion origins."
"It feels a little expensive."
"This set of technical data is mature and complete, with it, your empire will be able to create a manned vehicle with space jump capability within a year, which is the most important and critical step to become a primary interstellar civilization, and the unowned planets within hundreds of light years around will soon be planted with the banner of the empire, compared to such a rich return, one billion origin is not much." The Starship Hub patiently explained.
Qin Feng frowned and weighed for a while, one billion origin is indeed not a small amount, but with his current ability, it is not that he can't take it out, as long as he goes to the abyss and hell plane to go around more, hunt and kill the last batch of demon lords and devil lords, and he will earn it back.
"Your Majesty, the empire is still in a period of recovery and development, both the population and the size of the economy are not satisfactory, and the resources in the solar system are still quite abundant, plus the resources you have brought back from other worlds, it is guaranteed that the needs of the empire will be sufficient for the next few decades."
Lin Xihan persuaded: "Even if the empire can open the gate of the Star Sea as soon as possible, the current significance does not seem to be obvious, if you want to develop and utilize the resources of the alien system on a large scale, you must wait until the empire has a sufficient population before it can be put on the agenda." ”
Qin Feng thought for a moment and bowed slightly: "Well, that's the same reason, then let it be." ”
I have one-tenth of the world's authority here, and I am with the will of the planet, and it is inevitable that my youth will last forever, and I can afford to wait for only a few decades, so I don't have to rush it.
Back in the palace, four bright eyes and bright teeth, beautiful and dusty girls greeted them, saluting and greeting, the first two beautiful dreamlike, about seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls in purple skirts are Qin Shuangqi and Qin Shuanghua, who were born to Queen Lin Xihan and Princess Xiao Yuehan. The last two girls in red dresses who are about thirteen or fourteen years old, smiling with eyebrows and eyes, enthusiastic and lively are Qin Shuanglan, born to the imperial concubine Tang Ning, and the girl in the white dress with a dignified face and a cold look is Qin Shuangyu, born to the imperial concubine Song Xuemei.
Their real age is not very old, but not long after they were born, they went to the divine kingdom of the starry world, where the environment is more conducive to their growth, because of the difference in the speed of time, so they have all grown into girls now.
Speaking of which, even Qin Feng himself is a little unclear, his descendants are not few, but there is no male child, and the princesses of several worlds have given birth to princesses.
"Dad, when are we going back to Xingmeng World?"
Qin Shuangqi came over and took his arm, blinking her big bright eyes and asking expectantly. Although the apocalyptic world is good, it is not as good as the divine realm of the starry world after all.
Because of the higher level of the world, their strength growth rate over there is significantly higher, and they are rich in resources, and now she is a legendary powerhouse, and because of her divine nature, it is inevitable to ignite the divine fire in the future.
"No hurry, wait,"
Qin Feng touched her head: "Your queen mother has been presiding over the overall situation here, and this time you should let her go out to travel." You're the first in line to the throne, and it's time for you to learn how to handle government affairs. ”
"Good...... bar. ”
Qin Shuangqi was a little unhappy and reluctantly agreed.
The three younger sisters suddenly showed gloating expressions, and the eldest sister, who had a slightly domineering personality, stayed to watch the house, they naturally liked to see it, saving this girl from pestering Qin Feng all day long.
"Sooner or later, it will be your turn to be uncomfortable."
Qin Shuangqi glanced at them hatefully, saying that she only blamed herself for being unlucky, but she was the eldest daughter of the royal family, and that position would naturally be inherited by her in the future. But having seen all the magnificence and magic of the starry world, how can she still be rare here?
Song Xueyao smiled: "You don't like to stay and work? Then it's better to draw lots together to decide, whoever wins the lottery will stay in the empire for a year, and after the expiration of the period, draw lots again to decide who will take the turn, how? ”
Qin Shuanghua frowned and thought about it: "Okay, yes, but there are only four of us, if only we could have a few more sisters." ”
"This has nothing to do with the small number of people, right?"
Qin Shuangyu's tone was light: "If you're unlucky, it's useless to have a hundred sisters to draw lots with you, it should be you or you!" ”
"Okay, let's talk about the lottery next time, this time Shuangqi will stay behind."
Queen Lin Xihan took out the majesty of the main palace and finalized the matter, and the eldest princess Qin Shuangqi reluctantly agreed.
Qin Feng smiled and comforted her for a while, this kind of thing is barely coming, since the daughters are unwilling to take over, they will have to consider the right person in the future.
