Chapter 850: Homestead

Because it was the first time to come to the bustling star field, Xiaohu increased the range of active detection.

After all, there are strict rules here, and you can't be too careful.

The space probe is more than 700,000 kilometers away, the size of a cigarette box, and has a radiation-proof matte coating.

In the darkness of space, if it weren't for the faint electromagnetic signal, even the small lake would not have been able to spot it.

The old lady looked at the type of detector and frowned suspiciously.

"There's no new exploration here, did something happen, or did you drift over?"

Qu Jianlei spoke helplessly, "It's to destroy and detour...... Or ignorance? ”

Detouring is the most unlikely, dragging such a large pile of wreckage, and detouring when you encounter a probe, when will you have to detour?

Mrs. Jia was stunned for a moment and asked, "Can you use electromagnetic waves to attack?" ”

After receiving an affirmative reply, she nodded, "Then destroy it, there are so many cosmic storms." ”

Qu Jian Lei paused for a moment and made sure again, "Will there be any fault investigation...... I mean, there's no aftermath, right? ”

He's really annoyed with his trick, and the ship he's sitting on now is ...... What a ship.

This guy was a bit ominous, and over the next two days, they found three more detectors in quick succession.

Even Mrs. Jia couldn't help it, "This is really an accident, why don't you go around in a circle." ”

If one or two detectors are damaged, if they are damaged one after another, and follow the investigation, wouldn't it expose their whereabouts?

After seven more days of walking in circles, I finally came to a planet called "Lost".

This galaxy is called the canopy, and the Lost Star is the outermost planet, with a perennial temperature of more than 100 degrees below zero.

This is the secret camp that Mrs. Jia chose for everyone, where you can store some supplies in case of emergency.

Of course, she most likely had already guessed the existence of Xiaohu, but she didn't say it clearly, only that this place could be used as a hiding place.

In fact, if you dig a cavern deep into the ground, the clone of the small lake can repair the starship here.

Several starships with huge wreckage landed on the Lost Star one after another.

The planet is more than 20,000 kilometers in diameter and, although relatively low-density, is massive enough to have a sparse atmosphere.

Everyone in the starship can feel the howling wind outside, and the wind strength is not as strong as seventeen or eighteen.

In the wind, you can also see all kinds of solids, which are not naturally generated.

Seeing this, Claire couldn't help muttering, "Also a garbage star? ”

"It's easier to dispose of garbage this way," the paranoid replied casually, glancing at the massive starship wreckage behind him.

Qu Jianlei's face was a little hot at this glance, "It should be repaired or it must be cultivated, and the supreme must eat, drink and Lazar!" ”

The paranoid man spread his hands helplessly, "I didn't say anything, how unconfident are you?" ”

"Let's work," Qu Jianlei didn't bother to say anything more to this guy, turned around and walked to the hatch.

It took only three days to dig a tunnel more than 50 kilometers long and more than 20 kilometers deep.

This is not just the efforts of the Awakened, but also the robotic arms of several starships.

In the past, Qu Jianlei did not use starships to build caves, not because the equipment was unprofessional, but mainly because he was worried about exposure.

But on the Lost Star, there are no such concerns, and the raging atmosphere can perfectly obscure their actions.

And the wreckage this time is too huge, and the tunnel to be dug is so wide that it can't be used without using a starship.

It took them another three days to build the hall, the rooms, and the facilities.

Then the group rested for the day and left again on the Ominous Ship.

The next destination is Home, one of the system's habitable stars.

The development history of the homeland star has been more than 1,000 years, the climate is slightly colder, and the planting industry is the mainstay.

This planet is also sparsely populated in the Warhammer Domain, and as the empire's territory grows larger, the population is decreasing day by day.

The expansion of the empire's territory led to an increase in land suitable for cultivation, and the homeland faced great competition and became more and more sluggish.

In particular, the empire has very strict requirements for the rotation and fallow of the homeland star, and the popularity here is declining day by day.

From the perspective of the empire, they have a comprehensive consideration, at least the official land reserve, and they are also responsible for the people.

But it is undeniable that with the loss of a large number of people, it has led to a serious hollowing out of the planet.

After the Ominous Ship sent out a landing request, no one came to check it, and the huge starport was empty, and the landing went smoothly.

But after landing, someone boarded the starship and did a careful inspection.

In particular, the identities of the ten people in their group were all checked one by one, and they were checked in great detail.

Mainly because they are from the Sky Hook Star Domain, which is not prosperous, and it feels a little bit of regional discrimination.

However, after the inspection, the four masters said, "If it is from the Hope Star Domain, we may not be able to get out of the Star Harbor." ”

The Hope Star Field is a typical marginal star field, and it is not allowed to enter the inner circle of the empire without permission.

As for moving to the inner circle, it is basically a dream - the inhabitants of the fringe star field have their own "border" aura.

Mrs. Jia chose this place, she really thought about it, the hollowed out planet is not particularly exclusive to outsiders to enter.

If it is replaced by another habitable star paradise in the galaxy, I am afraid that the identity of the Sky Hook Star Domain will be subject to stricter investigation.

Here on the homestead, they didn't even ask what they were doing here.

It's just that after leaving the Star Harbor, they found a hotel to stay, and the owner asked questions with great interest.

It feels like no one has been here for a long time, and it's rare for locals to see outsiders.

Unexpectedly, in the bustling star field, this kind of place can still be found, Qu Jianlei has to sigh, sure enough, there is an old man in the family who has a treasure.

The next day, the group continued to move forward and rented a homestay, which was also very cheap.

In the next two days, the old lady found a way and helped everyone make a fake identity.

She didn't explain where the door came from, and the others didn't ask, but the fake identities made here were more professional and more expensive.

Qu Jianlei is absolutely willing to spend money in this regard, and decided to make three fake identities for each person.

This alone costs millions.

And he didn't forget to tell the old lady not to do it all at once, but to handle it in batches and many times.

After hearing this, the four masters couldn't help but shake their heads, "Our boss...... Really atmospheric. ”

Next, everyone used fake identities to contract more than 100 square kilometers of land.

This area sounds not small, but it is actually not too big, ten by ten kilometers, that is one hundred square kilometers.

The land is owned by the government, with rivers, hills and plains, which is rented but not sold, and can be used for planting and raising livestock.

However, whether it is planting or breeding, it must comply with the relevant regulations of the government.

The terms are relatively harsh, not to mention crop rotation and fallow, there is also an upper limit on the number of livestock raised, as well as quality and environmental protection requirements.

For ordinary people, it is necessary to lease at least two or three square kilometers of land in order to ensure a certain quality of life.

If you encounter a bad year, the standard of living will fall.

Moreover, the cost of contracting such a large area of land is also very high.

Ordinary people can't come up with such a large sum of money, and they have to borrow money from the bank.

This series of constraints has led to the fact that the land is not easy to rent - who will come to farm and play if you are really rich?

Qu Jianlei originally thought that renting thirty or fifty square kilometers would be enough, but when he learned about this situation, he rented more than 100 square kilometers.

His team of 10 people, if they rent too little, they can't guarantee the quality of life of their own people.

Of course, he is not short of this little money for daily expenses, but in the eyes of others, it is a little unreasonable.

So he simply rented a little more to make his team look more like they were here to make money.

Anyway, there is no harm in having a large area, just enough to hide the Qi Gathering Array and the Spirit Gathering Array.

Although the government is demanding, everyone wants to see prosperity under the rule, although the qualification examination is very strict, but the attitude is very good.

Needless to say, they found someone to build a guardrail and a house.

Although the hollowing out of the planet is serious, as long as the money is in place, some people are willing to take orders.

Then there is the related production equipment, Qu Jianlei does not purchase much, and it is not enough for his own use.

However, this thing is not possible to take it anywhere else except for using it here, so there is no need to buy so much.

Anyway, if these equipment rotate continuously, it won't delay too much work, and it's a big deal to repair it from time to time.

In addition to him, Bentley and the four masters in the team have considerable maintenance capabilities.

Seriously, I bought a little more robot, and this thing can be used anywhere.

In addition, he also purchased a large number of industrial materials in the name of repairing those starships.

Many materials are not available locally, but they can be ordered online.

The Paradise Star in the same galaxy is very prosperous, and it is convenient to send materials from there.

His large-scale purchases even alarmed the local government, who came to ask him what he was doing with these things.

Not to mention that the management here is really strict, and someone will ask about such a big thing.

Qu Jianlei's answer is to assemble some equipment to facilitate his own better planting.

However, those who came to investigate felt that he still purchased a bit of an outrageous amount of things.

However, considering that these people contracted more than 100 square kilometers, the government still did not pursue it.

Anyway, they are all industrial raw materials, not supporting weapons, and more is better than less.

These things are busy before and after, and basically a month has passed.

Everyone finally stabilized again, and the Qi Gathering Array and Spirit Gathering Array were also set up underground, and they could cultivate normally.

However, Qu Jianlei is a hard worker, everyone can practice step by step, and he still has to send raw materials to the Lost Star.

Fortunately, Paranoia and Flower Scorpion have nothing to do, so go with him.

Otherwise, with the inspection strength of the Homeland Star Mansion, you must understand, how can you go out with a starship alone?

There's no way, the star field in the bustling area does have a lot of rules.
