Him and their stars

Not to mention Mr. Governor, but Mr. Bernard, the leader of the civil service system, doesn’t he also want to be enriched?

Thinking of this, Yu Lian smiled slightly and said to Mr. Woolley: "No matter what, he is still the governor now, so he must pursue his own affairs in his position. Since he has said that he will raise money, he must do it!"

When the governor leaves, your "club mates" and the worker leaders of the Red Maple Factory will be more unscrupulous in their attempts to seize the administrative power of Xinyumen, right? There was no clue about Mr. Bernard Wood's expression, but Yu Lian felt that this old civil servant was.

… Of course, Mr. Governor’s presence is not of much use. Doesn’t even the civil service led by Mr. Bernard cooperate very frankly and extensively with youth clubs?

Yu Lian added: "Now, although the predators have been eliminated, they are only a partial force. There are still thousands of enemy ships and millions of enemy troops hidden in the starry sky only a month or two away from us. . The entire colonial sector may be turned into powder at any time. We still need to strengthen our armaments and use every possible means to strengthen our armaments. If the New World Command does not see new military expenditures, I don’t care. Commander Yang and Deputy Marklov The commander is mature and has a good temper and will definitely not say anything, but... Chief of Staff Bonaparte will definitely be very unhappy."

Mr. Wood nodded: "Your Excellency the Governor will definitely know his position very well."

"Also, please tell him that I don't know when I will counterattack, but even the alliance that is still causing trouble now cannot really let the fertile soil of the New World hide millions of plunderers bent on revenge. When that time comes At that time, the large fleet from the mainland will finally arrive, and this place will inevitably become a frontline logistics base. If the huge sum of money raised by Mr. Governor can build four or five deep space docks and energy sources in the new Yumen outer space orbit The factory and the new Yumen ground will attract more industrial workers and become more prosperous. This is naturally a political achievement of His Excellency the Governor. More importantly, what will the higher ups think?"

Yu Lian saw that Mr. Bernard also showed an moved expression, and added: "Don't worry. The big shots above will never forget the achievements of His Excellency the Governor. I can guarantee him."

"Your Majesty the Governor will definitely cooperate with you with gratitude," said the old civil servant.

Yu Lian pondered for a moment and then said: "The reason why I ordered your subordinates to be taken away was not to arrest them, but to protect them. Although the extremely evil criminal was executed, he did some tricks on those people after all. Mentally The matter is very sensitive and delicate. They may need a thorough treatment before they can return to society. I have already said that if the local fleet will arrive, Xinyumen will be a front-line logistics base. I cannot leave any hidden dangers .Mr. Bernard, do you understand?”

The old civil servant continued to nod: "You are the expert in mysticism. Naturally, I will fully cooperate."

"...Mr. Bernard, someone told me that civil servants are actually the group in the entire community government that knows how to assess the situation best. What do you think?"

"What that person said is correct. However, in this context, I actually want to tell you that we are also a very pragmatic group. We believe more in professionalism and are willing to follow the guidance of experts and cooperate with them. Do something." The old civil servant glanced at Yu Lian, and the implication was that he was very happy to cooperate with Yu Lian, an expert in mysticism.

"Indeed, I have never denied your professionalism." Yu Lian praised you, but suddenly changed the topic: "However, someone also said to me that if you want you to truly display your professionalism, just That gun was pointed at the back. Is that really the case?"

Mr. Bernard Wood smiled helplessly and said: "Colonel, you are not the only one who said that."

Yu Lian also smiled: "In short, if more than 20 civil servants are taken away at one time, there will indeed be many gaps. New Yumen is about to undergo major construction projects, and the work of the agency must not be affected. I will help you To replenish manpower. However, I hope you can be a little more accommodating regarding their personnel establishment."

Bernard said righteously: "There is no need to be accommodating."

"Oh?" This leader of the civil service system in the New World Star Region had a smooth journey in another timeline, and even became the caretaker prime minister of the Republic of Terra at the age of eighty. He was actually a figure in his eyes. The master who doesn’t knead the sand? Yu Lian thought to himself: Why the hell do I just not believe it?

Then, I heard the other party say: "When necessary, the government can hire contract staff. And these contract staff can also be converted to tenure based on their performance at work. National civil servants. This is already within the regulations, so how can we talk about accommodation?"

I knew it.

"I see. I thought that the civil service system has quite high requirements for academic qualifications and background. Moreover, only graduates from prestigious schools like you can become the person in charge of local government and large ministries. Just like our army, The difference between the 'ordinary group' and the 'elite bureaucratic group' is similar."

Bernard said: "The situations you mentioned all exist in the civil service system. However, Colonel, our civil service system was actually established during the empire's rule, so it naturally adopted the empire's style."

"Oh? This is the first time I've heard of this." Yu Lian asked curiously: "Is it an exclusive stable structure?"

"No, it's the vague and fuzzy rules, and under them, the flexible means and bottom line to do things satisfactorily!" Mr. Bernard Wood also laughed.

Yu Lian couldn't help but marvel at the other party's "frankness" and gave a thumbs up.

The other party then said: "However, Colonel, you are destined to become a big man in this world, enough to be famous in history. I still don't know what you want to do, but I can be sure that your status will soon be so high that I...oh, even the governor downstairs looks up to me. But the more you do this, the less you can use the word 'accommodating' with people like me."

"Someone like you?"

"Yes. People like me are just humble social instruments, carrying the fruits of the thoughtful deliberation of big people. You will soon become such a person." He still wore a simple and honest smile, and his tone was sincere without any hint of hypocrisy.

These senior civil servants are really interesting. Not only do they want to be on the rooftop, they also always like this tone when they speak. If they insist on speaking of tool men so fresh and refined, will they make themselves more elegant?

"So, what's the result of your careful thinking about the future?" Yu Lian asked with a smile.

"After the things here are done, I will apply to be transferred to the New China Star Sector." Bernard Wood said with a smile: "The situation there is complicated, even more complicated than the New World. The Earth Headquarters will not sacrifice my sacrifice. 'I am so touched that I will even raise my grade and salary by one level, and I will no longer care about New World's mistakes."

Is this why you are willing to cooperate so much? Yu Lian thought to himself.

"Of course, all this is only possible if Mr. Qi's election is successful. You must know that both the Co-Prosperity Party and political allies will put forward high-quality candidates to compete for that position." Bernard added: "Of course, If Mr. Qi is willing to join any party, he will definitely be the target of full support, but after all, he wants to form his own party..."

However, Yu Lian seemed not to have considered Mr. Qi's failure in the general election at all, and said directly: "You can now look for a place to live in New China. The housing prices there are really cheap now. If you buy it now, it is considered an investment." It’s also very good.”

He was about to leave when suddenly he seemed to remember something and turned around and said, "By the way, I heard that you studied at Independence Memorial University and participated in student movements when you were young?"

Mr. Wood showed a look of astonishment for the first time, and a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes, but he still said: "It happened more than thirty years ago. At that time, Marshal Li had just passed away. At that time, I was even better than you are now. Be young. Being young means being impulsive!"

"But it also means that there is no cold blood." Yu Lian shrugged and said, "I remember that your eldest son is also studying at Independence Memorial University, right? He is already in the third grade."

Although Mr. Wood didn't understand what Yu Lian meant, his smile immediately became more sincere. It was obvious that his son was his pride.

"He is a troublemaker with excessive energy. He always thinks he is the smartest. I hope he can understand as soon as possible that being smart and being really smart are two different things."

Yu Lian smiled: "Smart people are easy to become red... easy to understand the dialectical relationship between ideals and reality. Let him do an internship at Red Star Office during the summer vacation. I will give him a letter of introduction." This is my friend’s company, and it’s easy to meet many like-minded colleagues, and they are all smart people.”

He ignored the old civil servant with a complicated face and left directly. Then he took the freight elevator of the building with its back to the alley and went down to the first floor. He bypassed the crowd and exited the Mediterranean Hotel through the back door.

At this time, calm has returned to the interior of the Mediterranean Hotel. All trapped passengers and staff have been rescued and are receiving treatment.

Now, there are still some engineers carrying instruments in the hotel to conduct the final survey work to see if the other party has left any safety hazards such as bombs.

Yu Lian left the hotel in a semi-stealth manner without alerting them, and got directly into the car that took him back to the headquarters. Just as he was sitting firmly, he received another report from Akinayama Hachiman: "It was so quick to find a zero element." A lizard?"

Like that kind of brown-red horned lizard, in the entire wilderness of Mount Kililuo, there are at least eight million if not a thousand. Yu Lian estimated that even if he mobilized all the soldiers and hunters on the planet to lay a dragnet, it would probably take several weeks to find him. But I never expected that I would get the news in less than a day.

"It was discovered by a militia team from Shuangfeng Town 347 kilometers southwest of the town. The specific time is 17:27 today."

That was three hours ago. Yu Lian looked at the time.

Akinayama Hachiman said again: "The specific location has been passed to you. In addition, our people have also arrived at the scene. Preliminary judgment shows that the zero elements precipitated are 2.12g of silver obsidian crystal, 1.35g of miraculous crystal and 1.21g. The purity of the Everblood Stone needs to be further searched.”

Then it's ninety-nine percent certain. Yu Lian thought.

If the measure of whether a psyker is completely dead depends on whether the zero element is precipitated from his body, then the variety, attributes and quality of the zero element precipitated can represent his strength and bias.

One of the Thirteen Faces, the "Great Dramatist", one of the leaders of the Snake Organization, died in the desert of Xinyumen, at the hands of several ordinary militiamen, and died so quietly. And without any dignity.

However, as an excellent commander, Yu Lian couldn't keep his words and said: "Then continue to check. In addition, according to the standard of purity 18, give bonuses to those militiamen."

Hachiman nodded: "So, shall we continue hunting the red horned lizard?"

Yu Lian pondered for a moment: "We can lower the level of alert. The main thing is to hunt down all the defeated looters and sand people rebels. If nothing else is discovered after two weeks, the intelligence can be released."

After all, he is a big devil, so he still needs to take some extreme measures to kill the wrong ones without sparing them. In comparison, the death of hundreds of thousands more large lizards is nothing, and it will not cause species extinction anyway. I guess no one except for small animal protection would feel harmed.

Akinayama Hachiman pushed up his glasses and did not object, but said: "Commander Yang from New Port Arthur called. A so-called reinforcement fleet from the empire arrived, but it did not enter the country. However, it is said that the reconnaissance force from the empire There are new discoveries. It is estimated that a high-level military meeting of various countries will be held in New Port Arthur soon."

"Reconnaissance force?" Yu Lian raised his eyebrows: "It can't be Colonel Yeager Soback's Buran, right?"

If it was really that guy, Yu Lian would have to admit that there really was destiny somewhere, and he might have to treat that guy differently next time.

"It's not known yet." Akinayama Hachiman sighed: "Commander Yang requires us to restore local security as soon as possible. Let's leave aside the security on the planet's surface, but the space lanes must be restored as soon as possible."

Yu Lian nodded: "Let Colonel Kong Qingyu conduct a routine patrol from Xinyumen to Nantianmen, and then turn back."

"I'll arrange supplies and routine maintenance right away," Hachiman said.

Yu Lian thought for a while and then asked: "One more thing, how is the collapsed tunnel on the other side of Mount Kililuo?"

"I used the last engineering troops here, as well as the elite mining team over at the Red Maple Factory. Busca and Summers were in charge of the excavation, and Major Vayali and Winter were in charge of security, as well as a regiment of troops. . In addition, Major Fina Li was also filming at the scene, saying that this can be regarded as promotional material. If it doesn't work, it can be kept as internal information or something." Akinayama Hachiman said: "However, there are many collapsed mountains nearby, so the excavation work is still a bit objective. Difficulty. Mr. Summers believes that we may need more than twenty days, or even longer."

In addition to Feifei, friends like Simon and Busca were all present, so Yu Lian was naturally relieved. As for Summers of the Omnic Brotherhood, he can be regarded as the best technical worker on the planet. Since he said it was twenty days, then it would be twenty days. Anyway, there was still plenty of time.

"Tell everyone at the excavation site that there is no need to rush the work. The first premise is to ensure your own safety, and then the integrity of the ruins. Also, help me send a letter to all the marines, guards and militia systems in Xinyumen. Organize it. , all officers above the platoon leader, every fifty people in a class, take turns coming to my class every Wednesday and Friday morning."

"Attend class?"

"To be precise, it can be regarded as a discussion meeting. We did fight well in this battle, so we need to understand why it was good and whether we can fight better in the future. Because of this, we need to go to this class."
