After Bai Zhongqi showed his face at the United Nations General Assembly, he returned to his official residence to rest. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThere is no regularity in life in the past two days, and it is only by relying on the support of nutrients to maintain energy, but even for Iridium people with strong physique, sleep is also very important, and after Bai Zhongqi was busy with these things, he finally slept for a few hours, and felt that his whole person was resurrected again.
When the day and night of Ruyi City have been adjusted to the area of the East Eight Districts of the earth, Bai Zhongqi is basically the morning of Country C after he gets up. The early morning of the head of state is naturally completely different from the early morning of Dick Si international students, and the personal life assistant assists Bai Zhongqi in washing, making Bai Zhongqi feel that he may become more and more lazy in the future. The housekeeping robot also served a very hearty Iridium-style breakfast to the Führer.
Although it is similar in language and writing to country C, the Iridium culture is still very different from the culture of country C. Judging from the diet alone, Iridium people don't seem to be as foody as Chinese people, and the style of catering is relatively simple. Iridium people also eat carbohydrates as a staple food, supplemented by protein foods and fruits and vegetables. To Bai Zhongqi's surprise, the staple food of the Iridium people was an apple that looked like a potato skin, and the fruit of a roasted crop that looked like bread with no sweetness. The scientific name of this crop is grain fruit, and it is a kind of food crop with a rather terrifying yield per mu. After grinding, you can get a very fine cake flour, which can be eaten without grinding and roasting or boiling. In terms of carnivorousness, the Iridium people have a lot of choices, and the interstellar empire spanning hundreds of planets, after introducing and hybridizing a large number of animals on different planets, has formed some relatively fixed domestic animals. The same is true for fruits and vegetables.
In some ways, Iridium food is also very similar to country C food. For example, the Iridium diet emphasizes colloidal foods such as porridge and soup, and Bai Zhongqi's breakfast today is a kind of soup porridge with diced meat and vegetables, turning over the aroma. This is also Bai Zhongqi's favorite Iridium food in the past two days, in terms of soup porridge, there are no less than thousands of types, and it really tastes very good. The staple food is roasted grains and fruits, as well as small dishes made with different cooking methods, and the portions are not large, but there are a lot of them on the table.
In fact, many Iridium people prefer fast food made using molecular cuisine, which is different from fast food on Earth. It is to directly understand the molecular composition of food, and then make the food into a variety of convenient and fancy appearances, and eat it in one bite, which can serve a meal, and the taste is the same as a meal.
On the one hand, this kind of Iridium cooking is very popular, but on the other hand, it has been criticized by many people who are particular about food, believing that it is a kind of destruction of Iridium's food culture. In particular, some people with more status disdain to eat Iridium fast food, and the food cooked with complex processes and fresh ingredients is truly a work of art and enjoyment. The elaborate Iridium people also demanded that the food should not be cooked by robots, which would not reflect the skill of the chef and the connotation in it. In short, if you want to be poor, there will always be means.
However, Bai Zhongqi is willing to try all kinds of high-tech new things, and if he has the opportunity, he is willing to try any fish-flavored and shredded meat biscuits.
This breakfast was not exclusive to Bai Zhongqi, Bai Zhongqi called Interim Prime Minister Du Peng, Commander of the Cosmos Force Xu Lanzhou, Commander of the Marine Corps Xiao Yu, President of the Imperial Academy of Scientific Research Mo Laitong, Luo Quan of the Imperial Ministry of National Security and others to have breakfast with him. At this table, he didn't like to see Xiao Yu, but after all, Xiao Yu was a descendant of a knight, and he was also the captain of the Marine Corps, although Bai Zhongqi could dismiss him, but Xiao Yu had a deep management of the Marine Corps, and his too simple and crude approach would also cause division and contradictions among the already small Iridium people. Bai Zhongqi's plan was that after absorbing the power of the earth and joining the empire, he could slowly divide and marginalize Xiao Yu and the faction forces to which he belonged.
Bai Zhongqi ate about six minutes full, put down the tableware, and the Iridium bigwigs who paid attention to etiquette also put down the tableware regardless of whether they were full or not. Bai Zhongqi took a sip of a drink similar to Iridium, cleared his mouth, and said: "In ten hours, the earth's visiting delegation will come to Ruyi City, and the prime minister will make a specific visit plan, there is no need to show them too many things, just go around, there is no need to show technical things, as for the military, we have already shown enough muscles before, and there is no need to come again at this time." ”
Du Peng had been preparing for this matter for a long time, and nodded yes. Then Du Peng asked: "Your Majesty, now that the Empire has decided on a policy to transform the earth's manpower for our own use, Your Majesty has said that a new political framework will allow us to receive the earth's power smoothly and gently. I wonder if Your Majesty can reveal more details about this now? ”
Bai Zhongqi had also been prepared for this, and actually summoned these people to come over to have breakfast with him, and he also wanted to talk about these things.
"Absorbing the Earth's population for the Empire's use is the first step in the United Empire's grand plans in the new universe. In order to make faster and more efficient use of the Earth's population, we have ruled out the use of simple and crude drastic means, de-enslavement or coercive control, which does not help our strategy. To solve this problem, we need to look at the position, capabilities and needs of both sides, and there is no doubt that Iridium is strong and Earth is weak. What we need is a larger population, and the countries of the planet need new resources, new opportunities and development. Of course, we don't necessarily have to find common interests and reach a cooperative relationship with all the countries on Earth, we only need to cooperate with some countries with large populations, good development potential, and better cultural integration into the empire.
Therefore, I conceived such a framework - [Iridium-Earth Interstellar Cooperation Alliance], referred to as Star Alliance. This is an international/interstellar supranational sovereign political entity dominated by Iridium, and the Earth countries will hand over a part of their national sovereignty to the Star Federation, and the representatives of Iridium and the Earth countries will form the Star Federation Council as the power body of the Star Federation, and decide the affairs of the Star Federation, the political body, and the affairs of space exploration. Iridium directly receives a veto in the Star Alliance Council, and the rest of the Earth nations that have joined the Star Alliance are in a subordinate position. The Star Federation itself does not interfere in the internal affairs of specific Earth countries, but the Earth countries themselves are subject to the political guidance of Star Alliance. And we will also require the earth countries to abide by the resolutions of the Star Federation and provide support for the policies of the Star Federation in all aspects, which naturally includes the provision of manpower. Of course, we will use some things that are more than three generations inferior to the mainstream technology that Iridium is now using, as the benefits of the Earth nations, plus the resources we have collected from the planets of the solar system and the various products produced by Iridium, to firmly tie the Earth member states of the Star Federation to the chariot of our United Empire. Nominally, we will give the member countries of the earth the right to withdraw freely, but once they join, they will enjoy a huge advantage over the rest of the countries of the earth, and we will not only stop technical assistance and material support when we withdraw, but also do not rule out the practice of recovering aid. So, as long as you get in the car, you can't get off. ”
