Chapter 2277: The Sixth Star System of the Wraith Dragon Civilization

Mid-year of the second year after the end of the Three Civilizations War

Sixth Galaxy

An interstellar stealth reconnaissance ship quietly entered this star system.

The starship has been patrolling this star system for over a week.

"Still no intelligent life detected?" The captain looked at the star map, which had scanned a large area.

"Yes.

We have now scanned at least one-third of this galaxy.

No trace of intelligent life has yet been found.

However, some habitable planets have been found to contain life forms.

However, most of these creatures only possess rudimentary intelligence and cannot be considered truly intelligent life. The adjutant beside him pointed to the locations of several habitable planets already marked on the star map.

As an interstellar stealth reconnaissance ship tasked with exploration, their mission requires them not only to determine whether intelligent life or some kind of interstellar civilization exists here.

We also need to determine how many habitable planets and resources are available for development within this star system.

We must first determine the next initial map.

This will lay a solid foundation for the larger group that follows and save time.

"Speed ??up the search efficiency."

Go directly to those large planets and conduct a survey to confirm that there really is no civilization there.

"That way, we can notify headquarters to send more starships over," the captain said with a serious expression.

"yes!"

It then took another three days.

The final conclusion was that no civilization existed in this galaxy; it was an unexplored galaxy.

When this news reached the Xiaolong civilization, some were happy while others were helpless.

Symposium on the Sixth Galaxy of the Dragon.

"I never expected to discover a star system with absolutely no intelligent civilization." Secretary Barbara rubbed her temples.

"Isn't the absence of intelligent civilizations a good thing?" someone muttered.

"The absence of intelligent civilizations makes it much easier for us to take over this galaxy."

However, this means that the galaxy is completely unexplored.

There were no people, and no existing industrial system.

Everything needs to start from scratch.

"This is a massive undertaking," said Secretary Narcissus from the side.

She is now the head of the development agency, and she is in charge of all related star system development.

She succinctly pointed out the pros and cons behind it.

"alright.

Everyone has arrived.

Let's determine how to arrange the future of this sixth star system.

This time, the UNDP was in charge.

"Shuixian, tell me about your plan first." Zhao Chen looked at Shuixian, the secretary.

Secretary Narcissus stood up; in her hand was the development outline finalized by the Development Agency after working around the clock.

"Now that we can confirm that there is no intelligent civilization in the sixth star system, we can intervene directly."

To develop it in the shortest possible time.

According to our survey results, this galaxy is not large in area.

However, if the initial development can be completed, and T2-level industrial production equipment is fully invested in, with T3-level industrial production equipment invested in key areas.

"The annual output value can reach an astonishing 100 billion star coins, and with further in-depth development, the annual output value can be increased even further!" said Secretary Narcissus.

Zhao Chen calculated the figures in his mind: an extra 100 billion star coins, and that number would continue to grow in the future. This meant there was another source of revenue.

"According to our plan, this initial construction will be completed within a year and a half."

However, there are several major problems to solve in order to complete this step.

First and foremost is investment!

Investing is not just about money.

Actually, money and resources are minor issues.

The biggest problem is the population.

This is a galaxy without intelligent life.

That means there is a shortage of labor.

Getting people to willingly move there is no easy task.

"Unless it's mandatory immigration." Secretary Narcissus looked at Zhao Chen.

Forced immigration did not meet Zhao Chen's policy standards, so it was naturally rejected outright.

“Actually, I think we can use many new technologies in the development of this galaxy,” said Chief Engineer Anne, who was invited to the meeting, raising her hand in a rare gesture.

Zhao Chen looked at Chief Engineer Annie, signaling her to continue.

Anne continued, "New technology, in my definition, is unmanned space."

This includes unmanned operations, unmanned transportation, and unmanned cities.

In short, it means replacing all the work that can be done by machines with machines.

We actually possess this technology.

As for why it's not being extended to the existing five star systems...

On the one hand, the initial investment requires a sum of money, and on the other hand, this will squeeze out more than 80% of jobs.

The unemployment rate will increase.

This would cause major problems with the order under the rule of the Xiaolong civilization.

But this problem doesn't exist at all in this galaxy.

Since there were no jobs to begin with, there's no point in talking about an unemployment rate.

Hearing what Annie said.

Everyone present was immediately impressed.

"That's a good idea."

"Afterwards, your development agency can work closely with Chief Engineer Anne to find a way to implement this plan," Zhao Chen nodded and said.

Annie quickly said, "Wait a minute."

When I say to use fewer people, I don't mean to eliminate people altogether.

While unmanned equipment is good, it is not immune to malfunctions and has limitations in adaptability.

Each unmanned workshop requires at least two technicians to be in charge.

"Narcissus, calculate it and see what would happen if we arranged it this way."

"How many people are expected to be prepared?" Zhao Chen asked Secretary Shui Xian.

The secretary, Narcissus, didn't take long to arrive at a number.

"Initial arrangements would require at least 100 million people."

With subsequent development, the final required population should be around 500 million.

One hundred million people, that's no small number.

For a planet, it's really nothing.

Most planets have a population of 100 million.

However, in an undeveloped galaxy, let alone a hundred million people, even a million or a hundred thousand would be difficult to manage.

"We can carry out an immigration development program."

Inform the public of the actual situation.

We offer free technical training, job placement, and immigration subsidies to anyone who is willing to voluntarily sign up for the immigration development program.

For example, a job position.

Within the five major star systems, the annual salary is 100,000 star coins.

If you're willing to participate in the immigration development program, your salary can be doubled.

And for the first ten years, there was a fixed annual increase of 30%!

We also provide a range of free support, including housing, meals, and education.

In addition, we also offer buyout immigration development programs.

For example, some families urgently need a sum of money right now.

All you need to do is participate in our immigration development program and sign a contract for a certain number of years.

For example, a three-year contract, a five-year contract, or a ten-year contract.

We will provide an interest-free loan, and the loan amount will be deducted from your monthly salary.

"In this way, those who participate in the immigration development program can leave with peace of mind!" Secretary Barbara rattled off several plans in one breath.

It's simply about giving money, jobs, and more choices.

Under this barrage of sweet talk, it's hard to believe no one would participate.

"But remember one thing."

This is for the efficient development of this sixth star system, not a place that anyone can go to.

Therefore, those who go also need to go through assessments and screenings.

"Of course, if it's for mining on certain planets, prisoners can be sent directly there," Secretary Barbara added.

In the development of remote star systems by some interstellar civilizations, they would choose to send some scoundrels there, although this could also be used to develop these star systems.

However, problems will arise, namely, the efficiency of developing these remote star systems will be affected.

It is very inefficient and there will be instances of people disobeying management.

The Xiaolong civilization does not expand for the sake of expansion, but for the purpose of producing more resources, so it chooses to develop efficiently.

"Another area is infrastructure."

We need to take two steps.

One option is to dispatch T2 and T3 ships, and of course, it would be even better if there were T4-level interstellar industrial ships.

On the other hand, any component modules that can be built in our factories across the five star systems can be built first and then transported there for assembly.

This can reduce the construction period.

The first infrastructure to be built includes stargates, followed by starports, space stations, habitable cities on planets, and so on.

On the contrary, those resource extraction sites were not among the first to be built.

Once that infrastructure is built, more people will be able to go there in the future.

Only then can we fully develop the resources there! "The secretary, Narcissus, said with a serious expression.

Then, Secretary Narcissus said, "There's also the matter of the garrison."

Although we have not yet discovered any intelligent civilizations in that galaxy, nor have we found any traces of visits from other civilizations.

However, we should be prepared for any eventuality.

It would be best to send a fleet to garrison there.

Otherwise, after we've finally finished building it, a fleet might suddenly appear and destroy all the infrastructure we've built.

If they kill the people we sent, we will suffer enormous losses.

Casualties will also affect our prestige among the people.

By then, it will be very difficult to recruit people to participate in the immigration development program.

“We can arrange this.”

We can initially deploy 300 interstellar warships to garrison the area, and gradually increase the number as needed.

"That's all negotiable," Marshal Chu Xuan said from the side.

After some discussions, the development blueprint for the Sixth Star System was basically finalized.

"Oh, right, there's one more question."

"Then what about the management of this sixth star system?" Secretary Barbara suddenly asked.

In other star systems, a Star System Governor's Office was established.

What about this sixth galaxy?

If there's no population, and a governor's office is established, who will it govern?

If we don't establish it, what will happen in the future?

"We can temporarily set up a governor's office, and the internal framework can be copied from the existing governor's office structure."

However, it is not necessary to have a full complement of staff; just enough is sufficient.

As for the position of Galaxy Governor.

Since Narcissus is in charge of the development of the sixth star system.

"Then Secretary Narcissus will temporarily assume the position of Governor of the Sixth Star System!" Zhao Chen announced on the spot.

Narcissus, the secretary, was surprised to hear that she would be temporarily appointed as the governor of the Sixth Star System.

"I......"

Secretary Barbara smiled at Secretary Narcissus: "This is the most suitable arrangement."

After all, this is your job.

The initial phase will focus on development, which is your responsibility.

You have direct and full control, which saves a lot of unnecessary steps.

Just report to us directly when the time comes, and speak up if you have any questions.

Very efficient.

When regional development is more balanced in the future, you can hand over this position to someone else.

Upon hearing this, Secretary Narcissus said nothing more.

He accepted the task.

She secretly resolved that she would develop the Sixth Star System perfectly, ensuring that His Majesty and the Secretary would have no worries.

——————

The news of the Xiaolong civilization's discovery of the sixth star system was quickly made public.

Furthermore, related construction plans have begun, and many factories have received a large number of construction orders.

It's easy to imagine where these assembled modular components will end up.

At the same time, there are related immigration development plans.

The five star systems and every planet are being bombarded with advertisements, both online and offline.

"Look at your son, he hides in his room as soon as he gets home."

He won't look for a job even when asked to.

"What a waste of time going to university!"

“I found him a job before, but he wouldn’t take it.”

That was a job I had to go through a lot of trouble to find.

Outside the bedroom door, the sound of the parents arguing could be heard continuously.

A woman covered her ears as she sat in her chair.

It's not that she doesn't want to work, it's just that she doesn't want to do jobs she doesn't want to do, nor does she want to do jobs where she can see the end from the beginning.

Work, get married, have children.

And then it's just the same life as everyone else.

Just then.

A message popped up on her handheld device; it was a mass message from the local internet service provider.

"I want to start a new life."

The Xiaolong Immigration and Development Program awaits your selection.

There is another link below.

On a whim, she clicked on the link.

The link leads to a website, which was specifically built for this immigration development plan.

Those who are interested can ask various questions here.

Keep all procedures simple.

Assessments, training, physical examinations—we can arrange everything for you.

Looking at the blueprint described there.

She couldn't help but imagine that unexplored galaxy.

Perhaps there, I can choose to start a new life.

Ultimately, she made the biggest decision of her life in the shortest amount of time.

She opened the registration window and filled in her information.

The next step is to wait for further notice.

She could hear her parents and siblings talking outside the door.

They probably didn't know that their seemingly ordinary daughter had made such an earth-shattering choice!
