Resurrection Empire

Their ancestors lied, stole, robbed, killed, and used people as supplies.In their hearts, there is one and only one mode of governing civilization, and everyone will be the same.They can't believe heavy promises and scare themselves.

In the shuttle ship, Ren Zhong told Ju Qingmeng: "Within six hours at the latest after I set off, there should be delegations from the nine major families coming to the fleet to challenge the fleet personnel as permitted by the laws of the empire." Invitation to recruit."

Ju Qingmeng had already communicated with Xiao Xingyue, and also carefully studied the laws of the empire by himself. He knew that such an event would definitely happen, but he didn't expect it to come so soon. He said in amazement, "You haven't come back by then, have you? I should first Stop them?"

Ren Zhong shook his head and said: "Of course I didn't come back. In the entire Nanxiang Star Cluster, besides Liu An, I have the highest title. If I were in the fleet, they would not be able to perform well. They are playing with this time difference. You don't have to stop me , you can’t stop it. Just let it go, they can’t take anything away. Of course, you still have to show sadness and anger on the surface, and look like you have been bullied, so that I can make trouble in the future.”

Ju Qingmeng hummed, expressing his understanding.

Just as he was about to hang up the communication, Ren Zhong hurriedly added that Ju Qingmeng must hold down Ma Xiaoling when the time comes.With Sister Ma's temperament, if she really wanted to be in a hurry, she might violently kill someone.

After the arrangements were made, Ren Zhong finally flew directly to Nanjiu b.

As he expected, five and a half hours later, a futuristic medium-sized shuttle-shaped spaceship approached the moving Origin Star Fleet, arrived near the Seeker spaceship without notification, and opened the spaceship from the outside. Landing port, floated in.

The leader of this spaceship is the second son of Southgate Augustus—Gruen Augustus, and there are eight other members of the viscount family's generation on board.

The reason why they can remotely control the Seeker spacecraft from the outside is, of course, because the ownership of both the supernet node and the Imperial spacecraft Seeker 154332 belongs to the nine companies.

They already have the highest authority.

Of course, if Sun Ai gets into trouble, he can keep these people out of the door.

But Ren Zhong couldn't reveal the truth that Yuanxing's supernet node had been replaced by a civet cat for the prince, so he could only let it go.

After this group of people entered, they first reprimanded the security personnel who tried to stop them with a very bad attitude, and even activated the "permission" granted by the supernet node to forcibly confiscate the security personnel's weapon control rights, then went straight to the throne hall, and along the way All members of the Origin Star Fleet issued the highest announcement, announcing their arrival.

When these people arrived, they noticed at first glance that there was only a new throne left in the hall, and Ju Qingmeng who was sitting high on the throne.

The other core personnel in the fleet were arranged in two rows, looking solemn and ready to fight.

At this time, Ju Qingmeng was resting his chin on his hands, narrowing his eyes slightly, as if he was taking a nap.

Gruen Augustus pointed at the condescending Ju Qingmeng, "Who allows you to sit and greet me in front of the Baron of the Empire?"

Ju Qingmeng finally opened his eyes slowly, still looking down, "I haven't received a landing permit, and you haven't verified your identity. I don't even know who you are, so why should I welcome you? Who are you?"

Gruen was taken aback for a moment, and immediately understood that the other party was pretending to be confused.

When entering the tracker, both the supernet node and the ship verified his identity, so how could he not report to the fleet's temporary head.

This woman is clearly trying to show her off.

Gruen took a step forward, posing as if he was about to climb onto the high platform of the throne, and said in his mouth: "You are so courageous. Come down. The throne should be seated by the highest-ranked baron. I am the hereditary Baron Gruen Augustus. These few They are also barons for life, it's not your turn..."

As soon as Ju Qingmeng raised her hand, Shi Lin who was standing behind her suddenly stepped forward.Hearing the sound of creaking, Shi Lin's size instantly swelled several times, and he had already switched to the fighting form of a warrior in a colony.

Theoretically, other smart devices in the ship will be restricted by the supernet node, but the power of Shi Lin, a soldier in uniform, belongs entirely to him.

Many years have passed, and after merging Baifeng's mistletoe ability, today's Shilin has already reached the peak of a super-grade warrior, and he is definitely a leader in the mechanical empire's power system, which cannot be underestimated.

Gruen and the others felt the strong murderous intent coming towards them, and their expressions froze. They didn't expect that the woman who took over the fleet as a temporary responsibilities would be so powerful.

Under the oppression of Slim's murderous intent, Gruen quietly took a step back, no longer aggressive.

He is a noble aristocrat, and he has no need to fight against lowly tools.

He also knew that the warrior in uniform had a weird temperament, and when he became crazy, he would not recognize his relatives, so he might really dare to kill himself, the baron.

After stepping back, realizing that his momentum had been lost, Gruen had no choice but to make up for it by saying some polite words, "A mere commoner dares to be presumptuous. It seems that Earl Ren Zhong has never taught you the rules..."

Ju Qingmeng waved his hand lazily, "I am indeed a commoner, but as a countess, isn't it enough to talk to you condescendingly?"

A woman with black hair and black pupils behind Gruen laughed loudly when she heard this, pointed at Ju Qingmeng and said with a smile: "You are too good at putting gold on your face, I have never heard of an imperial earl who would marry a commoner woman as his wife." As a wife, you are at most just a reproductive tool."

Ju Qingmeng turned his face away and glanced at the woman, then turned to look at Gao Ya, the former president of Amethyst Mining.

Gao Ya lowered her head in shame.

From the analysis of facial features, the woman should be of the same origin as the Gao family who is in charge of the mining industry on Yuanxing, but the result is so embarrassing.

At this moment, the three-dimensional projection behind the throne hall lit up, and the face of Ren Zhong appeared on the projection.

Even though it was just a projection, everyone present could still see that his face was sinking like water, as if he was suppressing his anger.

"Of course Ju Qingmeng is my first wife. You should give me the basic respect of the earl and my wife. Even if I have a heavy responsibility and my foothold is not stable, no cat or dog can ride on my head casually. You are provocative. First of all, even if I order you to be killed now, it will only lose a little battle merit. You better understand this. I can’t control what you want to do, and I don’t bother to control it within the scope of the laws of the empire. But it is unnecessary If you need to restrain yourself, restrain yourself."

After finishing speaking, Ren Zhong stopped talking nonsense and hung up the communication.

Gruen and the others changed their colors one after another.

Before coming here, the elders in the clan let them be more arrogant.Anyway, the burden is not there, and the people who are facing are all civilians, so they have to come first.

Unexpectedly, Ren Zhong directly threatened his life.

They were afraid.

Chapter 498 Our Choice

When this group of people began to feel fear, the situation suddenly improved a lot.

Gruen and the others restrained their arrogance, only moved out of the imperial law, and politely stated that they would fulfill the rights and interests of the sponsors of the Seeker colony.

Not only that, because he was worried about further angering Ren Zhong, Gruen canceled the two plans to ask for the Seeker spacecraft and the supernet node body on the spot.

Gruen believed that he, the little baron, should not get involved in such an important matter, and just wait for his father to negotiate more directly with Ren Zhong himself in Nanjiu b.

In the imperial law, there are detailed and comprehensive regulations on the trace colonization operations sponsored and completed by nobles.

The nine viscount families have the right to issue an invitation to commoners who have completed the colonization operation and returned to the empire's territory smoothly.

Under normal circumstances, the scope of this kind of invitation is only limited to those who have a clear blood relationship with the noble family.

After all, most of the imperial nobles did not lack population, and the reason why they invited returning civilians was simply to improve a little bit of species diversity for their own families.

But this time, for some ulterior reasons, the nine viscount families rarely enlarged the scope of the invitation, extending it to everyone in the entire fleet.

Of course, this kind of invitation is not without threshold.Compared with the normal recruitment that takes place within the empire's territory, the review terms that the Viscount family offers to members of the Origin Star Fleet are even more stringent.

For example, in the field of professionals, no matter what kind of profession they are, they must be at least level 8 or above to be eligible to participate.

Also completely reject workers.

At the level of scientific research personnel and technical personnel, those who intend to apply are also required to participate in a vocational skill assessment that conforms to the imperial standards, and must reach the level of a senior engineer.

According to Ren Zhong's instructions, after hearing the other party's unreasonable request, Ju Qingmeng immediately became furious, angrily denouncing the other party as a serious provocation to the earl.

But this time, Gruen was justified and well-founded, and he brought up the law without being humble and explaining it one by one.

In the end, Ju Qingmeng had to put on a posture of knocking out teeth and swallowing blood, obediently let him go, and allowed the other party to issue recruitment invitations to everyone through the fleet management system simultaneously.

Gruen's recruiting offer was a speech he had recorded himself.

"Civilians from the source star, congratulations for leaving the ignorant and backward foreign colony and arriving at the territory that truly belongs to civilization. I believe that you have gone through basic studies and know what the empire is like, and you are a frog in the well You also have a basic understanding of the objective facts. Maybe you are still confused and anxious, not knowing what kind of future is waiting for you. Maybe you have seen the true face of the backcountry of South Nine C. "

"You have already gone through a difficult voyage. I believe that what you are looking forward to is to immediately plunge into the embrace of an interstellar civilization like the Empire and enjoy a real life belonging to the interstellar age. Use the planet as a hunting ground, wander between different star clusters, and cross the The journey of thousands of light years, watching the unimaginable wonders of the universe, and feeling different customs and customs, this is the life that the citizens of the real interstellar civilization should enjoy, not after several generations and their first half of life have suffered so much. I have to continue to stay on the extremely harsh planet and risk my life to continue my hopeless struggle.”

"Of course, according to the laws of the empire, you originally belonged to the earl. You are his people and his private property. This is quite disappointing. But now, the real creator of the source star civilization, which is represented by myself The Augustus family and the other eight noble families can give you a chance to choose your life again."

"Are you going to stay with Earl Ren Zhong on the fatal planet of Nanjiu C, or follow me to the territory of the old imperial nobleman with thousands of years of inheritance, get reused, and see the real prosperity? What about your own abilities? Those who are confident, please register as soon as possible. The registration time is only one hour, and the opportunity is rare, so you must cherish it and never wait for it to expire.”

Ju Qingmeng also heard Gruen's speech, but curled her lips secretly, feeling disdainful.This Gruen Augustus is mediocre, and he has no other skills except to look down on all sentient beings with his toes high and high, and put on an attitude that it is your luck that I win you over.The provocative power and depth of this speech cannot be compared with Ren Zhong's casual chatter.

But Gruen had no self-knowledge. After saying this, he complacently asked Ju Qingmeng for a temporary office, and led the team there to sit and wait for the registration applications that were about to fly in like snowflakes.

According to his estimation before departure, his actions can at least take away more than 90.00% of the high-end talents under Ren Zhong's command.

This is reasonable, this is human nature.

By the way, Gruen Augustus opened the census information in the fleet management system, and clicked on the situation of the Augustus family inside the fleet.

Before he set off, he had heard his father mention Barton Augustus, the distant cousin of a concubine.

His father told him that although Barton Augustus was not a direct descendant of the family, he was recognized by many elders in the family when he was young. Very insightful in scientific research and strategy.Before Barton Augustus left the South Nine galaxy, he once mentioned an idea with his family members. He thought that after thousands of years of precipitation, he would definitely be able to reap excellent results.

Now everyone in the Augustus family in Yuanxing's lineage must also be full of talents. .

After thinking about it, Gruen saw the detailed list of candidates, including the comprehensive parameters of every member of the Augustus family in the fleet.

Upon seeing this, he was suddenly dumbfounded.

"They're all trash snacks! Not a single super-level professional, not a single doctorate, and even a handful of bachelors, all of whom are studying trash majors. What the hell! Descendants of Uncle Barton How did it degenerate to this extent! It’s pure family shame! What’s the use of bringing these things back? Is it a waste of food?”

With the feeling of stepping on shit, Gruen looked at the real-time updated registration status.

His mood further deteriorated.

It turned out that the registration rate of this group of family disgraces in his eyes was as high as 99%.

Out of thousands of people, only a dozen or so people have not signed up.

None of them could really meet his recruitment criteria.

If these people's surnames were not Augustus, the registration labels in their watch system should be gray at all.

Just when Augustus had a little angina, the lifelong barons from eight other families were also contacting the distant relatives of the same family.

These people are not in a good mood.

On the bright side, the development of the branches of these eight families on Yuanxing is a bit too good.

There are as many as thousands of outstanding talents that make people salivate, and the development of the Ma family, the Locke family, the Tang family, the Gao family and the Ying family is the most gratifying.

There are even thousands of outstanding talents in these five families. If these people can return smoothly, they will definitely be able to stimulate the catfish effect within the Viscount family and become a great help.

But here lies the problem.

Although many people from these families signed up, most of those who signed up did not meet the minimum selection criteria at all. Those real talents who looked unbearably itchy were all motionless, as if they had no interest in the recruitment of bloodline families.

So, the eight lifelong barons decided to go out in person, find out the contemporary helmsman of the distant relatives and ask them clearly, to see if they are still up for sale, waiting for a clear remuneration and an increase in the price.

An hour passed slowly, and the eight people returned to the temporary office dejectedly, and all returned empty-handed.

No matter how they understand it and move it with reason, this group of ruthless distant relatives are unmoved by fans, and they show obvious hostility towards the legal clan head in words and expressions that cannot be concealed.

They once wondered if these people were brainwashed by Ren Zhong or drugged, but there was no evidence.

Seeing his colleagues return empty-handed one after another, Gruen Augustus's bad mood actually eased a little.

As long as he is not alone, there is still justice in this world.

Another hour passed, and according to Gruen's two-hour deadline, it was up.

But the nine barons stood in front of the statistics panel and looked at each other in blank dismay.

The total number of applicants was unexpectedly less than 5, of which only less than 3000 actually met the standards in various indicators, and the other [-] people were all waste from the branches of the major viscount families in Yuan Xing.

Gruen Augustus was silent for a long time.

He thought to himself, why is this script completely different from what he imagined before he came here!

He didn't know what to do for a while, so he had to ask his father for instructions.

Southgate, who was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai in South Nine B, waiting for Ren Zhong to go to the meeting alone, listened to the second son's report, the corners of his mouth twitched and he was dumbfounded.

Southgate asked: "Did you not clarify the real situation of Nanjiu C?"

Gruen slapped his forehead, "I did only speak in words, and did not give video data or analysis reports. It must be Yuan Xingbo who lied and deceived these people."

Southgate said angrily: "Stupid! You underestimate your opponent too much. No matter how much Yuan Xingbo is the earl of the empire who started from colonization, he must have some means. How can you underestimate the enemy like this. You will extend the deadline Thirty hours, with the time when Yuan Xingbo arrived at Nanjiu b as the end point, and then sort out the information collected by the exploration ships of Yuan Xing Commercial Transport, and make sure everyone in the Yuan Xing fleet understands Yuan Xing The current situation of the Earl. Oh, yes, the [-]-year assessment period must also be clearly stated, and they must be told that even the Earl of the Empire, if the performance is far below expectations during the assessment period, he will lose the right of the Earl and fall into the title of vacant title. A powerless situation."

Gruen got his father's advice and understood.

Although he suffered setbacks, he felt much more relaxed at this moment.

It turned out that I didn't do a good job, not some unexpected situation in the fleet.

Ever since, he issued an announcement through the fleet management system.

"The deadline for registration has arrived. I feel your enthusiasm. But I am grateful for the difficulty of your long journey, and decided to show mercy and give you more opportunities. I will extend the deadline to thirty hours later. At the same time, I will Lower the registration criteria. Besides, in half an hour, I will let you see the truth."

Naturally, Ju Qingmeng also received Gruen's self-defeating announcement, and laughed out loud on the spot.

This person was obviously slapped in the face, but he was stubborn.

But Zheng Tian cared so much about the "truth" Gruen said, that she suggested whether to unplug the network cable for this group of mouse shit.

Ju Qingmeng clearly remembered Ren Zhong's order, and only said that he didn't need it.

Gruen's so-called truth is presumably the relevant investigation report of Nanjiu C.

Gruen's struggle was of some use after all.

He lowered the selection criteria for professionals to level 7, and lowered the selection criteria for technicians and scientific researchers to mid-level engineers.
