Interstellar Farmer

Where have you been today? William XIV asked his brother Prince Henry.

Your Majesty, I just received the news that Han Zhen has entered Channel 307 and is expected to arrive at Yaser in ten days. Henry replied. He only returned from Mengkong headquarters after Han Zhen handed over the broken jade fruit technology. Of course, the first thing he did after returning was to report to his brother.

Well, ten days, fourth brother, are you ready for the welcome ceremony? Don't make any mistakes! William looked solemn.

Everything is ready, Your Majesty. The only thing you need to pay attention to now is the time. It takes three days to get from Yase to the ceremony location, so you must set off within seven days. Although Henry is responsible for foreign trade, he is also mainly responsible for the Meng Kong Merchant Alliance. Matters in important areas, but because he and Han Zhen went to the headquarters together, the relationship between the two was very close. Apart from Ziegler, he has become the second royal member who has been in contact with him the longest and knows him best. He came forward. , is better than sending a new person.

That's good. We'll set off in three days. It doesn't matter if we arrive early, it can also prevent any accidents. William said after thinking for a while.

Because Han Zhen's identity has undergone a huge change, no one in the entire Sig Star Territory dares to ignore Han Zhen's existence from now on. Therefore, the reception work this time is different from the past. Not only will William himself have to go to the outside of the capital circle to greet him in person, but also a guard of honor The specifications are also formulated with complete reference to the standards for welcoming the most distinguished six-level national leaders to personally visit. This kind of ceremonial guard has only been used nine times in history. This time to welcome Han Zhen's return will be the tenth time.

Has the handover of Han Zhen's territory been completed?

Reporting to your Majesty, according to the instructions, all handovers were completed a month ago. Henry replied. Not long after Henry sent the news back, William issued an order to expand Han Zhen's territory, and sent out more than 300 planets around Han Zhen's original territory, bringing the number of planets in Han Zhen's territory to more than 500; Not only that, all the mineral deposits on these more than 500 planets were transferred to Han Zhen's name. This is a big deal. In West's tens of thousands of years of history, this is the first time that such a large territory has been awarded at once! Although the level of administrative planet development in that area is not high, there are more than 300 intact planets that still retain most of the population, facilities, mining areas, and extraterrestrial mining areas. Even Calaf may not be able to come up with them. .

Seeing William nodding with satisfaction and no longer asking, Henry knew that he had done the right thing. However, one of the more than ten ministers in the study, Chief Minister of the Interior Abel, had many concerns, which made him worried. He couldn't help but ask: Your Majesty, the rise of the Han family is inevitable. We cannot stop it, but because of his rise, it will greatly affect us. After all, there can only be one king in Siger. ah!

The Han family is no longer the small area next to the Wild Star Territory. Because of the sparse large planets in the area, it not only has a border that stretches for tens of thousands of light years, but also borders two fourth-level countries and five third-level countries. , judging from this alone, it is not an exaggeration to say that Han Zhen is a prince; the capital obtained by Han Zhen from Vani is also very strong, and it can be said that it will not be worse than the current West. After all, that star The interstellar satellite was placed there; more importantly, with the backing of Varney, the Han family was invincible from the beginning - a conflict with the Varney family? Who dares? !

Fringe star regions like Sig can only provide a relatively large force. In the past, the Sig Empire and the West were fighting for thousands of years without a winner. Now if Han Zhen Now that we have joined in, is there still a need to compete?

William stood up and saw everyone was about to stand up immediately. He pressed his hand down and said after they all sat down again: Abel, why do you think Han Zhen came back?

Your Majesty, this is what I don't understand! Abel quickly stood up and bowed before replying: Ordinarily, with Han Zhen's current status, there is no need to come back to the Sig Star Territory. Sig is too far away from Mengkong's headquarters. The Varni family's fiefdom is further away. No matter how good Sig's planet is, as long as there is the famous Varni family as the backing, it is just a trivial matter to get some planets to settle down closer to Mengkong and the fiefdom. It shouldn't be too difficult for Vani to occupy a country. Moreover, Sig's planets and minerals can only be ranked at the bottom of all known star fields. So Han Zhen's behavior, no matter how I look at it, To sacrifice one's roots and seek the end.

Parson from the Intelligence Department and Pennell from the General Staff Analysis Office looked at each other, both with calm expressions on their faces. The other ministers all had frowns on their faces, especially Abel.

Pennell, come and tell them. William named them.

Yes, Your Majesty! Pennell stood up and bowed before replying, After analyzing multiple pieces of intelligence sent back from Mengkong headquarters, it can be seen that the relationship between Han Zhen and Khalaf is not as pleasant as imagined. . Here I need to first tell you about the relationships and differences between the honorary family, the surname family, the vassal family and the sub-family under a big family like Vani... Pennell briefly explained the ten chapters eloquently. Come a minute, Throughout the nearly ten thousand years of Vani's history, there is no sub-family that has been absorbed by the family that is weaker than the Han family! With the strength that the Han family showed before arriving at the Mengkong headquarters, Karaf can give the name of the sub-family to the family. The status is already outrageous! And what we see is that it is a family with a foreign surname that has great autonomy, and she is married to a noble girl with Marceau's formal aristocratic status! .... What the Han family hopes is to use the help of Apart from Varney's reputation, he didn't want to really become a vassal; and Varney's Khalaf also recognized that the Han family had great potential and didn't want to push too hard, so he chose to compromise. So I think Han What they reached with Khalaf was an agreement, an agreement that allowed Khalaf to choose to compromise.

Is this directly related to Han Zhen's return to Sige? Abel asked. He manages the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there are many things he doesn't need to know. If William hadn't called him here today, he might never have been exposed to this aspect.

Yes! Of course there is. The only way to avoid Varney from interfering too much is to stay away from Varney! It is not difficult for Varney to get a planet or country for Han to settle down. It must be that Han Zhen himself is unwilling; Lady Jenny has a fiefdom, and Han Zhen chose to come back instead of inheriting it, which indirectly illustrates the problem, because the only result of doing so is to become a complete vassal of Vani and never be able to escape. ! Han Zhen chose to return to Sig, not only because his previous territory is here, and his home planet is here, but also because Han Zhen has the status of our foreign prince. With this status, it is extremely important for his early development. benefit!

Setting up his own intelligence agency at the Mengcon headquarters is what West must do, but because West's so-called powerful family is just the most ordinary members in Mengcon, it is impossible to make the intelligence agency bigger: Go to Most of the personnel at the Mengkong headquarters must stay at their own station; if you want to enter the Mengkong Six Stars, you need to complete a complete registration; the equipment needed to detect intelligence is prohibited and cannot be brought in; the source Without it, even if the locals in Mengkong can be bribed, they will not be able to obtain higher value intelligence; in addition, there are many forces in Mengkong, and if you are not careful, your entire army will be wiped out;... Various reasons prevent small countries like West from obtaining much intelligence.

And Pennell is worthy of being a talent that William values ​​highly. He was able to analyze the relationship between Han Zhen and Varney with the help of sparse and inaccurate information, which proved his strong ability. Of course, this is inseparable from the fact that Han Zhen left West, and West paid attention to him much earlier than all countries and forces.

The status of a foreign prince is very prominent in Sige, but Han Zhen has now inherited the title of the Marceau Empire. Is this status of a foreign prince still useful to him? The minister sitting on William's left hand, West, now Grand Duke Senehir, Prime Minister of the Cabinet, asked.

Very useful, Prime Minister. Pennell said: As long as Han Zhen holds the title of Prince of West for a day, it is natural for him to come back. With this status, he can also participate in Sig's internal affairs. , even if the Sig Star Territory is unified, we cannot find fault with the issue of legality.

On the surface, Pennell's position is not high, he is just a division chief, but his Staff Analysis Division is the top priority of the staff department, second only to the minister, and the staff department can be said to be the liaison between the military and the military. The bond between various cabinet departments is irreplaceable. The original minister has resigned, and it is only a matter of time before Pennell is promoted, so that he can have a seat at the meeting of the country's highest authority.

Pennell first looked at William, and after William nodded slightly, he explained the reason in detail: Every country and group has its own sphere of influence. Don't stretch your hand too far, otherwise it will provoke public anger. Although Sig is the most inconspicuous desert star field, and the Sig Empire and the West Empire are just two small forces, but in terms of geographical division, Sig still belongs to the sphere of influence of the Free System and the seventh-level Rafs Empire. middle! Although Ravs has never bothered to come to Sig, even the sixth-level Longke Empire that is connected in the middle has no interest in going to Sig, but neither Longk nor Ravs will allow Marceau's forces to appear here. piece! In particular, this branch of power still has the possibility of expansion.

The Han family is different. The family with a foreign surname just bears the name of the Vani family. Its function is to facilitate development. In addition, it is a noble daughter who is married. In the eyes of the seventh-level powers, Han Zhen's true identity will not be considered. It can be regarded as a branch of Marceau and Vani; and Han Zhen still has the status of Prince of West, which is proof that he can stay in Sige legitimately; in terms of affiliation, the Han family is just a foreign fiefdom of West; …. All in all, if Han Zhen completely invests in Vani, he will not be able to continue to develop in Siger. Although the development of Han's family will not have much substantial impact on Ravs and Longke, it is a matter of face, and no country can Such provocation cannot be tolerated.

Senehil suddenly realized: So that’s it!

According to the conventions of civilization division, the term star domain originally referred to an area controlled by a fifth-level country. However, due to time and war, a star domain with only one country may have two or at most three. A fifth-level country, this is a historical issue left over from not wanting to split the original star field, and will not be discussed. Above the star field is the star belt, which is theoretically larger than the star field. Generally speaking, there are six-level countries in the area called the star belt, and above that are the galaxies and stars. The universe is very big, and there are countless galaxies, some large and some small. The current division of galaxies was still divided 40,000 years ago based on the locations of the many Jedi and dead places in the universe.

Theoretically, the fifth-level countries have no direct relationship with the sixth-level countries, but one problem cannot be denied: in this era of technology, the sixth-level countries, which are closest to the country and only one level higher, are the best objects to learn and absorb. , is also someone who tries every possible means to maintain a close relationship! Similarly, it is also someone who must not be offended! On the other hand, no country or force will allow a force that can compete with itself to appear in its surroundings - your own farm can be abandoned because it is too far away, but it does not mean that others Able to come in and cultivate.

The relationship between Level 5 and Level 6 countries is like this, and the same is true between Level 6 and Level 7 countries. A single move affects the whole body. If something like this happens to Sig, if it is passed on, Ravs will not remain indifferent.

Ordinarily, Senehir should have understood this in Pennell's explanation. After all, he is also the prime minister of a country. However, because the highest level West currently deals with is only six-level countries, he wants to communicate with seven-level countries. It is not enough to have contacts with the country, so Senehir's vision is limited.

Your Majesty, I now understand the reason why Han Zhen wants to come back, but this will not be of great benefit to our country? Abel was still reluctant, Han is acting through the prince status given by our country. To put it bluntly, He just uses our country’s name to develop, but when he really gets stronger, our country’s living space will inevitably be compressed; if he really unifies Sige in the future, where will our country be?!”

William glanced at Abel in surprise. He didn't expect that he could think so far, but this was exactly why he gathered them here. How to treat Han Zhen in the future and what attitude to adopt, these all need to be explained one by one.

If Han Zhen wants to expand, I will let him expand; if the Han family wants to take over the entire Sige, as long as we can retain our origin star, then I will give him the entire Sige! William said with great enthusiasm.

Ah? You must not do it, Your Majesty! Abel was frightened. After being stunned for a long time, he knelt down and tried to dissuade her with tears. All the ministers who were also shocked were Pennell and Parson. , but also lay down obediently in desperation.

Everyone, get up! You don't all think that I'm crazy, right? Let me tell you, I'm very good, better than ever, haha! After the surprised ministers got up and sat down again, William said: Han Zhen The country will be founded. From today on, West will be the Han family's staunchest ally. Whatever he wants, as long as I have it, give it to me! Even if he wants everything I have now, I will give it to him! William patted him. His own throne handler, What does Sig mean? As long as the Han family can develop, what we will get in the future will no longer be an entire star field, but two, three, or even more! Whether we can seize this golden opportunity, it will matter. Let’s see this time!”

Seeing that some ministers headed by Abel still wanted to dissuade him, William waved his hand and said, Everyone here is my most important minister, and it's time to tell you some things. After speaking, he looked at Parson.

Parson quickly stood up: Han Zhen not only obtained 50,000 Qingya battleships and Blues battleships at the Mengkong headquarters... but before leaving the headquarters, he also let the interstellar satellite drive to the Sig star field; and Han Zhen What Zhen offered in exchange was the broken jade fruit technology that is now widely promoted in our country...; When Henry returned from Mengkong headquarters, Han Zhen came up with two new improved technologies, which can make the current Bi Ning grape and Feng Xiang grass The unit output is directly increased five times! Now these two crops have begun to be planted on a large scale on thirty planets. From next year, Bining wine and Fengxiang perfume raw materials will become two new products of my West; After Han Zhen entered the country, he sent a letter that 10,000 Qingya battleships and 30,000 Blues battleships would be presented to His Majesty as gifts, along with sixteen special training lines...

As Parson explained one by one, everyone gradually understood: the Han family is no longer the Han family before; Han Zhen has a lot of good things; with West's current power, it is impossible to shake the Han family; since it cannot be shaken If you move, then relying on the close relationship with Han Zhen, as long as you follow closely, huge benefits will follow...

After Parson sat down, William said: The rise of the Han family is inevitable. What is rare is that he chose Sig and West. It is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide help when the time is right. Han Zhen is not in a difficult position now. However, helping him now will be much better than waiting for him to develop later. Therefore, we must make a bet before other forces see his true value.

After some discussion with the ministers below, William continued: In the future, we cannot treat the Han family with the same attitude towards domestic families. An alliance is inevitable, but this alliance will be dominated by the Han family; Han Zhen is no longer just a The status of a prince can be based on the standards of the emperor of the Longke Empire. Remember, I don’t want to ruin the relationship between the two because of these trivial matters!
