Chapter 714: Parent and Stepson

Unlocking 4 types of air units at once is a big gain, but the total unit limit of the Terran is still maintained at 1000, which has become a key factor in restricting his violent troops. You must know that the upper limit of the Zerg is already 2000, and the core upgrade of the system core can accommodate more Behemoth, which will bring another increase to the upper limit of units.

On the other hand, human beings, not to mention the poetry and history unit, don't even see a shadow, Emma either doesn't know about it, or directly says that the authority is insufficient and can't be queried, which really makes him angry.

"Commander, the process data of the Holy Spirit series aircraft carriers have all been entered into the Star Orbit Command Center."

At this moment, Emma's prompt woke him up, said "Got it", retired the adjutant, and controlled the SCV to build a new starport next to the location of the science and technology laboratory to produce Viking fighters, medical transport planes and other conventional air force units, and then turned his attention back to the present, walked out of the room, and walked towards the entrance of the archive area.

Sun Lihai saw him come out, snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, respectfully sent him back to the dock, waited for Melol to return on the plane, and then said goodbye to several technical directors, and flew straight out of the Atlantis space station and headed for the third level of warp interception net.

Watching the huge space station get smaller and smaller, Tang Fang sighed, thinking to himself that if one day the building of the system space could enter the real universe, how big would that starport look about the same size as a barracks and a heavy factory? If it's the same as a combat unit, the total cost is the size divided by 10 and multiplied by the in-game price, and the preparation of zero elements alone is enough for him to drink a pot.

It seems that after returning from the United Kingdom of Turanks, it is necessary to get the "Morning Star Casting" up and running as soon as possible, and collect zero-element resources in large quantities while carrying out commercial activities. Also, Grant, Walton, Johnny, and others don't know how to complete their mission to acquire the minerals needed to make the dimensional locks.

"Your Royal Highness."

Hear such a salutation. Melol turned her head and glanced at him: "Dear Tang Fang, you can call me by my name directly." ”

"Mei ...... Melol. ”

Calling him by his name in front of an old man, he is really very, very unaccustomed, even if he has been in this era of ethnic integration for a long time, he still feels a little awkward about some Westernized ways of communicating.

"I'll still call you Mei Lao......"

Melol frowned: "That would call me old, it's a very rude thing." ”

"Are you a woman......" he muttered quietly. said: "With the word 'old', it is the name of our Chinese civilization that is close to and respectful to the elderly. ”

"I see...... I like that title. ”

Tang Fang resisted the urge to give him the middle finger and said, "How much does it cost to build such a space station?" ”

Melol glanced at the ecological plantation in front of the left that cultivated new vegetables, and said casually: "It's not expensive, it's not expensive, it's just a few hundred billion." After speaking, he remembered Tang Fang's identity again: "If it is a star coin, 10 billion is enough." ”

"......" Tang Fang said with a gloomy face: "I'm not talking about the ecological plantation, it's the big guy in the back." ”

"The ...... in the back," Melol thought for a moment before she reacted, her head turning at breakneck speed. Looking into his face and saying, "You mean 'Atlantis'?" ”

Tang Fang nodded.

"What a bold guy." The old guy's hand left the joystick, landed on his shoulder, and slapped it three times.

He was speechless, so he could only be silent, thinking to himself that Henrietta was really miserable, and that he had such a good brother. The key is how did such a 2 goods, who are very similar to Haosen, accumulate such a mountain of prestige in the army, relying solely on his status as a prince? That may be a factor. But it must not be the most critical factor.

The guy in front of him is a guy with the same name as Turamon, the one who controls most of the strength of the 23rd Ranger Regiment. I didn't expect to be so unstable, like an old naughty boy.

He thought about it again, I am afraid that only such a guy can give Tramon a loud stinky fart in front of many ministers and lords at the joint council. Moreover, Melol is really bold, as a noble prince with military power. He dared to come to "Atlantis" with him without any frigate, driving a tea falcon-class shuttle, I really don't know if he thinks he has a long life, or if he is sure that the route is safe, in case someone sets up an ambush halfway. That's a lot of fun.

Melol didn't know that he thought of so many questions in an instant, seeing that he didn't speak with a cold face, he smiled and said: "A large space station like 'Atlantis', which integrates scientific research, manufacturing, and maintenance, will cost at least a dozen trillion star coins." ”

More than a trillion ...... Starcoins.

Tang Fang remained silent, this time not because of Melore's speechless performance, but because of the words "more than ten trillion".

The liquidity in his hand now is only 700 billion, which is more than 20 times different from more than ten trillion.

700 billion, which seems staggering, is enough to build a shipyard one level lower than the Sigma space station. However, compared to a big guy like "Atlantis", the gap is too big.

More than a dozen trillion star coins are enough to buy tens of thousands of tons of zeros.

Seeing the frustration in his eyes, Melol patted him on the shoulder again and comforted: "You must know that Rome was not built in a day. Young man, don't be too ambitious, 'Atlantis' is one of the four most famous shipyards in the whole of the United Kingdom of Trunks. In fact, its most important value is not the warship manufacturing line and maintenance capabilities, but the many scientific research laboratories covering the fields related to warship construction, and the various talents in them, who are the fundamental to ensure that the United Kingdom of Tulanx will not be left behind in the arms race in the entire Hillenbuir region. ”

"Therefore, those docks, those production lines, and those ancillary facilities are not valuable, and what is really worth trillions of wealth is scientific and technological competitiveness, just like the biological warship modulation technology you have mastered."

"If someone is holding 20 trillion Star Coins in front of you right now, and wants to change your biological battleship concoction technology, may I ask, will you change it?"

Tang Fang said: "That's a dream! ”

Now he knew that Melol was not the same as Hausen. The old man in front of him has gone through most of his life, has experienced many ups and downs, and has been crawling and rolling in the military and political arena for many years, how can he be comparable to a tendon like Haosen.

As the words above, the real value of "Atlantis" is its creativity that keeps pace with the times. Rather than just a few warship lines, or large shipyards.

In the same way, he asked Henrietta for the process data of the Holy Spirit-class aircraft carrier, and it was not to produce the Holy Spirit class aircraft carrier in the "Morning Star Casting" and then sell it to buyers, on the one hand, to unlock new technology. On the other hand, do you want to go through Emma and Egger? Skilled people like Staitman have figured out a way to build a completely new aircraft carrier.

At first, he only wanted to rely on the "Morning Star Forge" signboard to hide the interstellar units and the Ipsisaurus legacy of the "Lost Lands", and collect the materials to make the dimensional locks by the way.

However, things have developed to this point, the Star Alliance and the Monya Empire and the Sulu Empire are on the verge of breaking out, and the Phoenix Empire is eyeing one side again, and then he became the fiancΓ© of the new Duke of Kernar, setting off such a political storm in the United Kingdom of Tulanx, although it has now stabilized, but there is no possibility of compromise between him and the alliance of interests formed by the Armed Forces of God-Zanggowell, once the two sides tear their faces. It is likely to cause a big mess. The Sauron Empire is constantly increasing troops to the border in such a situation, who knows Gianna? What the hell is Britannia fighting, in case...... If she wanted to make a small move, would it have a negative impact on herself, or the Duchy of Kernar?

Because the United Kingdom of Turanks has long been weak in royal power, and has experienced so many years of tripartite power, there are many lords like Tripati who are not subservient, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not collude with external forces - the Supreme Council will be able to contact Sulbacho. It is naturally a normal thing for the Sauron Empire to have an affair with certain lords.

In the face of the complex international situation. Interstellar units with a population of several thousand in the system space alone will inevitably be overstretched, especially in the face of multi-line operations and multi-line defenses, it is very likely that they will be disrupted and suffer losses that they cannot accept.

"Aradell", "Josenna", "Dillard", Grant's "Babylon", Walton's "Jakarta Pur", and even Garcia's rebels who fought guerrillas in Monya.

There are so many things he has to worry about. Since it is impossible to increase the upper limit of system units in a short period of time to the extent that it is enough to deal with multiple threats, the only way to make the "Morning Star Forge" a veritable "Morning Star Forge" is to form an extended force in conjunction with the warship manufacturing line of the Dukedom of Kernar to make up for the shortcomings of the interstellar system. Just like the Apollo Pirates.

In the long run, when the time is ripe in the future, a counterattack on the Monya Empire will also require a large number of warships to defend the occupied areas to ensure that the front-line combat troops have no worries.

At the same time, after the official launch of the ship production line of "Morning Star Casting", the profits from commercial activities can support him to continuously purchase zero element resources to feed the big stomach of the interstellar system.

Based on these circumstances, he must take the issue of "Morning Star Casting" more seriously, instead of treating the "Lost Land" as a parent and the "Morning Star Casting" as a stepson as before.

"Tang Fang...... Tang Fang...... Hey, what do you think? ”

Melore's words woke him up, and when he looked up, the Tea Falcon class shuttle had already crossed the third layer of interception nets and appeared in the void not far from "Natasha".

The light of the three brothers fell on the surface of the blue planet, refracting a layer of white like the first snow, and deeper, the rainbow-like light diffused to the end of the line of sight under the refraction of the atmosphere, and the marshmallow-like clouds reflected each other, looking from afar like a brocade bead containing thousands of colors.

The sky of "Natasha" is very blue, blue as if it has been washed by water, and on this planet, where the ocean accounts for 89% of the total area, there are only three land plots, which do not border each other, and are scattered everywhere.

The dividing line between light and darkness cuts the Wilder continent into two pieces, the dawn sky is a little foggy, and the slightly smaller "Kehanor" shakes the light on the Cangshan Mountain and the clear stream, as well as the bamboo tower stained with water droplets, and the yellow warbler sings, telling people that a new day has arrived.

The residents of "Natasha" do not need to work, the life of sunrise and sunset does not belong here, they only need to sleep until they wake up naturally, or they can't feel the people around them to wake up, or they are dazzled by the light from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and then put on their nightgowns, or they can go to the balcony or window naked, and enjoy the bright or ambiguous, early morning or afternoon sunshine.

The people who can live here and enjoy the green mountains and rivers are either rich or expensive, and even the gardeners, nannies, cooks and other handymen employed by some large estate owners are all people with good family backgrounds or proud talents.

Melol placed him outside a manor surrounded by a peach grove. Piloted the shuttle back to the Mirror Light to meet with Henrietta.

Before leaving, he told Don that there were still almost 18 hours left before Zangowell summoned Elena, and that he could rest here for a day, and when the time came, Henrietta would send someone to pick them up.

Other than that. The daily necessities and related service staff in the manor have been prepared earlier, and if there are any additional needs, you can talk to the housekeeper and they will find a way to solve any problems...... Even if he needs a woman.

Captain Tang told him in righteous words that he was not that kind of person.

Moments before closing the cabin, Melol asked him in a loud voice: "And what kind of person are you?" ”

He was speechless.

Seeing the shuttle turn into a frightening cloud and disappear into the faint light and shadow of the "Natasha" satellite "Dinisha", he walked towards the manor deep in the peach forest.

Peach trees flourish, just without flowers. To be precise, it has passed the season of peach blossoms, only some leaves that have been knocked off by the cold rain are lying on the wet and cool ground.

As he made his way down the winding stone road, he thought about what the shuttle had said to him on the way down.

If Morningstar Casting were to build a large space station in the Dillard star system that would be large enough to produce carrier-class ships, they could provide some of the funding and technical guidance.

In fact, there is the heavy industry foundation of the Duke of Kernar, the process data of the Holy Spirit series aircraft carriers, and then Emma refers to the architectural structures of several shipyards in the "Sigma", "Atlantis" and the Aradel star system. It is easy to design a new space station to produce a variety of space vehicles.

But if you build a large space station, add to that the cost of the "Christel" atmospheric environment modification program. 800 billion stars is not enough. Taking a step back, even if it is sufficient, after the completion of the space station, there will definitely not be enough liquidity to purchase spare parts, various raw materials, and pay staff salaries.

What's more, he also wants to build a large-scale smelting and accessories factory in the main star of "Christiel", "Laxis", to produce the core components of the "Morning Star Casting" brand warship. He also had an even more daring and novel idea - to build a zero-element isotope refinery on Na'vi under the "Laxis" ground.

He also remembered the dreadnought-class fortress ship of the "Lost Lands". The energy required for the operation of its main gun is not the ordinary zero-element, but the more precious zero-element isotope.

No matter how good the idea is, the foundation for achieving it all is inseparable from resources, and arguably without money. Since Melol has said so, it is better to make good use of the alliance between the two sides. Get more money from the old-school factions to build their own territory, and in return, he will give them some new technology to help Henrietta and others grow their army.

In fact, there are many other advantages to doing this, such as when you counterattack the Mengya Empire, you can ask them to send troops to support, and I believe that the old-school forces will definitely not refuse.

Walking all the way, silently calculating all the way, when there was a line of color in his eyes, he woke up from his distraction, looked up, and saw that the peach forest had fallen behind him, and his feet were stepping on an arch bridge made of white marble.

Pink walls and tiles, the eaves are picturesque, a small wooden structure building and pavilion are scattered among the flowers and trees, through the same round arched porch, you can see the stone screen flower curtain, rockery and spring inside......

He originally thought that the accommodation that Henrietta arranged for him was a Western-style manor, but he didn't expect it to be an iconic garden landscape of Chinese civilization.

"This old man ......," he shook his head, and walked down the arched bridge into the garden.

Claire and the others left the "Mirror Light" and were sent here directly, when it was not yet dawn, and the group slept in each room under the leadership of the waiter, and had not yet woken up.

The courtyard leading to the main hall is planted with some begonias, the flowers have not yet been exhausted, the branches are dotted with a little purple, and the fallen flowers with a moist luster are spread all over the courtyard, and there is a smell of late spring in the garden.

The air at dawn is always cool, the light mist has a touch of a cold wave, and it is a good time to exercise in the morning.

However, under a begonia tree, a thin figure falls there, depicting a touch of whiteness for this blue and purple world.

Kelinia stood under the tree, dressed in a pure white knitted dress, holding a small blue and white porcelain bowl in both hands, concentrating on the cold dew dripping from the petals.

He didn't know how long she had been standing in the morning light, whether she had begun to collect dew when a white line of fish belly appeared in the distance, or whether she had melted into the misty world of color before dawn. Anyway, there was a glimmer of mercury on her long knitted dress, and even her thin eyebrows were embellished with a little dampness.

He frowned and said, "Kelynia...... What are you doing? ”

"Waiting for you." She didn't wake up, let alone look back, her eyes still fell on a small flower with a little dew in front of her, and said calmly: "It's just a little boring to wait, do something I used to like to do." ”

"Do you know that when he used to be in 'Arumega', he liked to drink tea made from spring dew, saying that it was a refreshing sweetness...... It's a pity that I don't have much research on 'tea', but since he likes it, I try to collect these dews. ”

"Mornings are always short, and a good view can collect such a small bowl, but most of the time it is only half a bowl, which is only enough for him to drink a cup of tea made by morning dew."

"Those days lasted for a while, until the 'tulips' dissolved into countless pieces and disappeared into the night." (To be continued......)
