The government announced the detonation of the volcano in advance, mainly to evacuate the people and temporarily close some shops and infrastructure.

Of course, there is also the meaning of soliciting opinions from society.

However, for the Empire, the directional detonation of volcanoes is also a fairly mature technology.

Now the situation of Qingyuan Star is more complicated, and only the government can fully grasp the situation.

So this decision is basically informative, and no one can have enough say in this regard.

This time, the evacuation of the people was drawn within a radius of 200 kilometers.

Within the radius, the relevant evacuation costs are borne by the government, including the daily living expenses of the evacuated population.

People who are 200 kilometers to 500 kilometers will have to pay out of their own pockets, and the government can provide appropriate help.

The fief of the Gustin family, which is more than a thousand kilometers from Mount Millaean, is not at all within the scope of the help of the government.

However, when the volcano erupts, this distance will be affected to a considerable extent, and it can only be said that luck is really bad.

Everyone in the Gustin family had no intention of evacuating, but chose to hold on.

Affected by the previous meteorite event, the output of the fiefdom this year is destined to be greatly reduced.

However, because it is far away from the place where the meteorite landed, the current situation of the fiefdom is more than enough on Qingyuan Star.

But if you add the impact of this volcanic eruption, it will definitely be worse.

The employees of the fiefdom intended to open the defensive array, and at this time, there were still family children.

The two sides bumped their heads, and then came to Qu Jianlei and his party to discuss.

The defensive array of the fiefdom was built by the Gustin family after several generations of talents, and then gradually improved it little by little.

However, after the family left Qingyuan, there were still various small defensive arrays, but the large defensive arrays were basically just decorations.

In normal times, the employees would maintain a basic maintenance of the large array, but now many places are in dilapidation.

It takes a lot of money to repair the big array, and it also consumes a lot of energy to run it.

For the Gustin family, gritting their teeth and repairing the big array is not a big problem, after all, it is to get a good tenant.

But once the big array is activated, the daily expenses are too high, and the key is...... You also have to consider the feelings of the VIPs, right?

Qu Jianlei has been in the fiefdom for so long, and he has also sensed this big array, and he has pondered it a little.

He thinks that it is enough to keep the foundation running, mainly to resist the cold in the future and protect the crops grown in the fiefdom.

The cost is definitely greater than the output, however, it is a pity that many plants that are hundreds of thousands of years old have been frozen to death.

In the final analysis, the nobility also needs to protect the environment of the fief to show the family heritage.

He came up with some suggestions for repairing the large array - this is a defensive array on the technology side, which is relatively simple.

The children of the Gustin family did not show surprise and praised enthusiastically.

As for daily consumption, Qu Jianlei is willing to pay half of the cost, and the other party will solve the rest.

It's not that I can't afford it, but it's too much, as tenants, their attitude is already very friendly, after all, it's not the main family.

Moreover, the main family has thousands of employees here, and if they cover the expenses, it will be a bit of a grievance.

It took five days to repair the Great Array, and then tried to run it, and on the eighth day, the government began to detonate the volcano.

The nutrient also sneaked out specifically to see the blasting process.

After coming back, she was a little unhappy, "The direction of the volcanic eruption is actually on our side. ”

This was certainly not a mistake, with the Empire's current technology, it was possible to carry out precise directional blasting of the volcano.

Qu Jianlei wasn't surprised, "It should be that when we tested the defensive array, we were observed by the government." ”

These days, although there are no people from the government who come to the door, the number of satellites overhead has increased significantly.

Even the frequency of passing satellites is much more frequent than before.

Visibility over the fiefdom was extremely poor due to the dust, but it was clear that the government would use a variety of observation instruments.

Volcanic ash will inevitably have a cathartic direction, and since the Gustin family is testing the big array, it is normal for the government to push the boat along the river.

Nutritionist is still a little indignant, "I think they are angry, so they change their ways to block us." ”

Qu Jianlei nodded when he heard this, "You can arrange someone to protest...... For Senior Jia, it is actually a good thing. ”

Of course, it is useless to protest, the bombing has been blown up, and it is too late to mention it now.

Change the direction...... It's not completely impossible, but it's a huge cost.

Sure enough, in the face of the protests of the Gustin family, the government actually replied unabashedly: Do you have a defensive array?

Now Qingyuanxing is facing a huge environmental crisis, and everyone must have money to contribute and make a strong contribution to jointly protect their homes.

This tone is quite high, but it is generous to others, but Qu Jianlei is not angry.

"Actually, it's a good thing, the government obviously wants to consume some fiefdom resources, but it shows that the probability of the next move is not high."

For two days or so, the dust began to drift in, visibility continued to drop, and the temperature gradually became colder.

Compared to the average temperature for the same period of the year, it is already nearly 20 degrees lower.

This is still a fiefdom far away from the meteorite landing point, and I don't know how bad the situation around the landing point will be.

However, Qu Jianlei and they didn't feel any guilt, and the meteorite was not condensed by them.

Since meteorites have to have a landing point, why not make them a little farther away?

The fiefdom's defense array is officially opened, and the minimum level of regular defense is chosen.

This is basically only the minimum requirement, and the protection capacity is almost zero.

But even so, because the fiefdom area is too large and the external environment is very harsh, tens of thousands of energy blocks are consumed per hour.

Considering the loss of some parts, if you persist endlessly for a year, the energy blocks consumed must be more than 10 million.

However, for Qu Jianlei and them, there is not much pressure to bear half of the cost.

With the arrival of volcanic dust, the temperature around the area is getting cooler and colder, and from time to time it will snow heavily - the dirty kind.

The fiefdom is full of greenery, which looks a bit like a paradise.

Not surprisingly, someone still found a fief and asked for help - there is no shortage of poor people on the rich star.

Under normal circumstances, employees encounter such things and usually provide some help depending on the situation.

Those who can come for help must be nearby residents, and if they are further away, they will have other options.

Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and the Gustin family is an aristocratic family and has a natural difference from the commoners, but it does not mean that they will ignore the life and death of the commoners.

Aristocrats also want fame, and on the premise of ensuring their own safety, they don't mind helping their neighbors who have been affected by the disaster.

This time, everyone encountered a "natural disaster", and it was not a big problem to lend a hand.

Because it lasts for a long time, the fiefdom usually only provides a relatively low level of subsistence support.

At the same time, they have to arrange some simple work for each other to offset the cost of assistance.

It is a simple cash-for-work effort, and it is not important to lose or earn, the main purpose is to tell the other party: don't think about getting something for nothing.

The aristocracy has a long enough heritage, and it is clear that there is a truth: some bad heads cannot be opened casually.

That's what the employees planned, but since there was someone in the main house, they would have to ask for advice.

The children of the Gustin family did not make any claims, and they made it clear that we are the guests now.

So they went to the distinguished guests together, and it was Xiangxue who was in charge of communication.

But there were more than one or two people who noticed this conversation.

Qu Jianlei used his divine sense to tell Xiangxue: Try not to help these outsiders.

It's not that he is hard-hearted, but this time is just right for Jia Shuiqing to break through, and suddenly add strangers, which is obviously inappropriate.

Xiangxue also wanted to get this, so she said that you can help each other with some supplies, if you take it in...... It's better to be free.

She replied tactfully, and she was a woman, so the butler hesitated and carefully objected.

The conditions outside are really poor, and this disaster will not pass in three or five months, after all, they are all neighbors who live not too far away.

If you're not at ease, we can confine them to the employee area.

Xiangxue was a little curious, couldn't she transport them to the government's rescue center?

However, Cao Dan is here - the area where these people are located does not belong to the scope of rescue.

And some people with poor conditions really don't have much savings, and some people even have mortgages and car loans.

In the imperial society, the larger families pay a lot of attention to accumulation, but the Moonlight Clan also exists objectively.

When these people go to the aid center, they basically can't find work to do, and their lives will be even harder.

But Xiangxue is no longer the young girl, she asked rhetorically: Who can guarantee that there is no official eyeliner in it?

The butler could not guarantee this, in fact he knew one thing: the government was even trying to buy off the employees of the family.

There is no way, the distinguished guests are too mysterious, they refuse to entertain guests or go out, and the government can only collect information in this way.

The children of the Gustin family believe that if they are too strict, it is easy to attract the attention of the government.

They proposed a compromise plan: just on the edge of the fiefdom, a special area was set aside for these people and managed in a unified manner.

After all, it involved humanitarian considerations, and after Xiangxue consulted the boss, she gave a final answer.

If you can send them away, try to send them away, and if there are really no conditions, they will be managed in a unified manner, and they will be warned not to move around.

Next, the fiefdom began to take in, but the card was stricter and more demanding.

After the news spread, many people dispelled the idea of defecting, but it did not lead to serious results.

In a blink of an eye, another ten days passed.

On this day, Qu Jianlei was bored, and was wondering whether to take the risk of taking out the Black Horse Tower to observe, and his heart suddenly moved.

Then he flashed and came to the courtyard, looking thoughtfully at the courtyard where Mrs. Jia was retreating.

There was a slight fluctuation in the breath.

The next moment, nutrients and paranoia and others also came to the courtyard one after another.

"It's ...... Are you going to get started? ”
