40,000 Years of Cultivation

Chu Zhongjiu was stunned for a while before he whispered softly, "That was just an accident."

The girl surnamed Tang said: "Uncle Chu, the word'accident' shouldn't be uttered from a refiner. There are no accidents in this world, there are only hidden dangers and probabilities!"

"We have been drifting in the sea of ​​stars for a full thousand years. All the components on the Firefly are rusted, worn and aging, and they are getting more and more unable to keep up with the development of our new technology. It is only a matter of time before the occurrence of'accidents'. With the passage of time, such'accidents' will only increase, and finally our civilization will be completely destroyed in an earth-shattering'accident'!"

Chu Chongjiu was speechless and sighed, "Miss is right."

A girl surnamed Tang said: "So, the Star Federation is our last hope. Although they have not reached our height in certain key technical fields, the Star Federation has control over at least seven great worlds and a prehistoric civilization. The remaining Kunlun Ruins, their resources, population and territory are thousands of times ours!"

"I firmly believe that quantitative changes cause qualitative changes. The Star Federation has unlimited potential. Even if there are still some places that are not as good as ours, it is destined to catch up with us at a fast speed!"

"Uncle Chu, did you know that when I was studying the'Dark Blue Thunder' designed by Wuma Xuan just now, I was really mixed with all kinds of emotions, and I don't know how to say it—when did it even come to the seaside? In the countryside, there can be crafting masters like Wuma Xuan who can refine a crystal armor that is not inferior to our mainstream equipment? This, what a terrible potential this is!"

Chu Chongjiu couldn't help saying: "This is because the young lady is too modest. Compared with the young lady, Wuma Xuan's refining skills are not worth mentioning. Just now, the young lady didn't solve the problem easily, and even stimulated it through adjustments. Because of the stronger performance of this crystal armor, does it have a better taste of "round and mellow" than Wuma Xuan's technique, let alone Wuma Xuan, I am afraid that his mother, Master Xie An'an, will come here. It may not be better than the young lady."

The girl surnamed Tang smiled and shook her head: "Uncle Chu doesn't need to exaggerate, I know the level of my refining art very well, not to mention... There is only one me on the Firefly, but Wuma Xuan is in the Star Federation. It is a rookie who has just risen, and is invincible among young people. He has really reached the upper level of the refiner circle, and some are even better than him!"

"In short, I believe that geniuses are piled up by numbers. The so-called'existence of phoenix feathers and feathers' is just the spire of the pyramid, but it needs a huge base to support it! Now, our Firefly lacks this base, and it is destined to be in decline. ; The Star Federation has enough population to support a civilization with endless potential and flourish!"

"We have the cutting-edge technology, but we lack the industrial foundation and population base; the Star Federation is solid enough, with enough population and resources, but the foundation is insufficient after all. Some cutting-edge technologies and magical powers will probably take hundreds of years to take off. Accumulate it!"

"If we can really merge, it will be of great benefit to each other. Only with such a new civilization that learns from each other's strengths will it be possible to defeat the Imperial Expeditionary Army and even return to the hometown in the middle of the Star Sea!"

"This is not only my father's ideal, but also my wish. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles I encounter, I will follow this path to the end. Uncle Chu, you will support us too?"

Chu Zhongjiu smiled bitterly: "I have been under Captain Tang's command since I was eleven. At that time, we were only two elementary school soldiers in the power cabin. The explosion in the power cabin even killed me. They were all rescued by Captain Tang. After so many years, if I don't support Captain Tang and you, who else can I support?"

"However, this road is not easy to follow. People on the Firefly may not object to the merger with the Starlight Federation. After all, everyone is the only two cultivators in the Star Sea. The problem, especially the group of people in our parliament, all demand to directly enter the parliament of the Star Federation, and even the name of the Star Federation must be changed, directly renamed the Star Sea Republic!"

The girl surnamed Tang widened her eyes, and her polite temperament just disappeared without a trace: "These people, is there a problem with these people's brains? Our population is only one-thousandth of the people, even one resource. No planet is in control, there is only a broken ship full of holes! The only bargaining chip is the magical powers, technology and Xinghai Central Intelligence passed down thousands of years ago, that's it!"

"And our magical powers and technology, even if people develop independently and immerse themselves in development for hundreds of years, they can always be developed!"

"On this basis, I want to join the host's parliament, and even let the family change the country's name? Isn't this more ridiculous than ‘greed is not enough to swallow the elephant’?"

Chu Chongjiu stopped talking, pondered for a moment, and said, "Perhaps they have no problem with their brains, but everyone's position is different, and they look at the problem from a different perspective."

"Miss, you know that since hundreds of years ago, there has been a'line dispute' on our Firefly, mainly the dispute between the'technical post' and the'management post'."

"Like you, like me, and even the captain, first mate, navigator, etc., including your father, those of us who are engaged in specific technical work naturally do not value the signboard of the'Xinghai Republic Orthodox Government'. Many of us even think that what is the “orthodox government”, the current Firefly, is it a starship in plain terms, it just needs to be managed in accordance with the rules and regulations on the starship, nothing is needed at all.' Orthodox government' come to point fingers!"

"But don't forget, when our ancestors escaped from the extreme heaven a thousand years ago, the ship was full of members of the'Xinghai Republic Orthodox Government' and their families. These people are intertwined and powerful. After a thousand years, It still maintains the daily operation and management of the Council, that is, the "Stars Association"."

The girl surnamed Tang coldly snorted: "What stars will meet, say it better, cumbersome, or ugly, cancer!"

Chu Zhongjiu said: "Miss, technicians like you naturally regard the'Qunxinghui' as a burden or even a cancer. However, in the eyes of the members of the'Qunxinghui', they are the last hope of maintaining the orthodox government. National elites who are more important than technicians!"

"For hundreds of years, the struggle between the technical post and the management post has been quite fierce, and now a'Star Federation' has suddenly emerged. Doesn't it greatly intensify the contradiction between the two parties?"

"I don’t like what I said, miss, my father is the captain of the Firefly, you are the youngest lecturer of Xinghai University, and the youngest first-level researcher of Xinghai Research Institute, and I, so-so, It can also provide some technical support in the refinery."

"Technicians like us, even if they join the Star Federation, their status will only be high, not low."

"My father can continue to be the captain of his Firefly, the Star Federation may even provide some resources to support him in forming a fleet, and he will be the commander-in-chief of the fleet; and you experts from Xinghai University and Xinghai Research Institute We can also find a big world, establish a larger education and research institution, or be hired by the eighteen highest universities in the Federation with high salaries to participate in more in-depth and extensive research; even if it is me, I want to enjoy it in the Federation It’s easy to get better treatment than it is now."

"In short, for those of us technicians, joining the Star Federation is profitable but harmless."

"But, what about the members of the Stars Association, and even our speaker, joining the Star Federation, what are the benefits for them?"

"The Star Federation lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of members and the speaker. People have done a good job. Every member and the speaker have accumulated countless military exploits and worked hard. They are given to our gang of members for no reason. Masters have a share? How can it be possible!"

"One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and a federation cannot have two speakers? Miss, you can tell, how can the'Stars Club' support a full merger? After the merger, we can rely on technology to eat together. What are these councillors doing? "

"Management? Yes, they say they will manage it! The problem is, miss you have said, our firefly has a total population of more than 100 million, and we have the most members, and we have handled more than 100 million. The problem of population! The seven worlds of the Star Federation have a population of hundreds of billions! Our councillors have such pitiful management experience, and they are nothing at all!"

"If the Federation can get a big city at random, it is very likely to have a population of hundreds of millions. Let our speaker be the mayor of another person. Why do we chairperson? Our chairperson is willing to do it, and the original mayor of the family is not willing to be virtuous!"

"This is still the Speaker. What should the officials of the empty department with so many dead bodies do? When we evacuated that year, we retained the organizational system of hundreds of departments. So many officials did not do business for a thousand years. What are they going to do? Go to the grass-roots clerk of the corresponding federal department? Who will!"

"In short, joining the Star Federation is very complicated. Even if the father is the captain of a ship, facing such a big resistance, it is impossible to do it overnight, let's consider the long-term plan!"

"The Black Wind Fleet is about to hit the door, how can we make a long-term plan?"

The girl surnamed Tang could not help but clenched her fists, "If the integration cannot be completed before the war, then--"

At this point, Chu Chongjiu's portable brain suddenly received a slight vibration, and someone sent a letter to Linghe.

In order to talk to the young girl surnamed Tang, Chu Chongjiu has set the level of Linghe Biography. Except for a few very important people, all the news of ordinary people and other people are blocked.

Chu Zhongjiu was slightly taken aback by the content that appeared in the biography of Linghe, his brows frowned.

"how?"

The girl surnamed Tang looked at him with concern, "Uncle Chu, something is wrong?"

"A very strange thing happened."

Chu Zhong said in a bewildered voice, "Nie Siyuan, the head of the maintenance department here, asked me for help and said that the crystal armor'Dark Blue Thunder' that we just adjusted together has a problem again!"
