I have a space station

"Xiao Lin, how is the construction of the power research lab in the base going?" Dongfang Chen asked.

"The power research lab was completed three days ago, and we are currently constructing the aircraft production lab," Xiao Lin reported.

"Good."

The power research lab can produce small batches of aviation engines.

The aircraft production lab only needs to be completed around the same time as the space station's quantum communication lab, because the aircraft needs the assistance of the quantum communication module to achieve ground cruising.

Once the aircraft is manufactured, the business of the chamber of commerce and the mercenary guild will no longer be limited by region, and can be carried out in great strides.

"Honorable members, you have all read the emergency plan draft. If there is anything that needs to be added or adjusted, please express your opinions," the Speaker said.

"Mr. Speaker, further decentralization to local areas is actually a disguised form of regional autonomy. While this method can enhance the flexibility of each settlement, it may also lead to situations where they do not obey the parliament's management. To put it bluntly, if individual bases secede, and others follow suit, our Hua Nation may end up falling apart," said Suo Tonghua, Commander of the Northeast Military Region.

"This problem will certainly arise. But conversely, what if we don't decentralize? Everyone is counting on the parliament's assistance, can you provide assistance to everyone? Do you have that ability?" said Zongzhen Yue, Commander of the Southeast Military Region.

"Zong Si Yan, what are you saying?" Suo Tonghua asked angrily.

"Don't think I don't know your little thoughts. You've just had too much milk and can't leave your mother!" Zongzhen Yue mocked.

"Bullshit! When it comes to the ability to suckle, who can compare to you? In half a a year, how many times did you say you withdrew defenses to the north? How much territory did you give up? Can anyone be more of a coward than you?" Suo Tonghua retorted.

"Bang, bang, bang!" The Speaker banged the gavel.

"Alright, stop arguing! Now is the time to discuss the emergency plan, not for you to bicker."

The two glared at each other and sat down.

"Councilor Suo's words are not without merit. If the parliament loses control over the local areas, the consequences would indeed be very serious," said He Jinghui of the Security Department.

"This issue is inherently dialectical. If we try to grasp everything at once, we will end up with nothing. I believe that regional autonomy outweighs the disadvantages. People must first survive before they can seek development. By then, if there is no one left in the local areas, who are we going to manage? In my opinion, the essence of managing the local areas is managing the people in the local areas. Preserving people is preserving the local areas. Let everyone survive, and then seek a unified method of management. We must eat one bite at a time, and walk one step at a time," said Wu Shengrong of the Land Administration Department.

The councilors nodded in agreement.

"Does anyone have any other questions?" Seeing that everyone agreed, the Speaker continued to ask.

"Councilor Yao, I would like to know, how feasible is it to grow food in a completely artificial environment? Have any related experiments been done?" asked Lu Yuanhang of the Water Administration Department.

Councilor Yao, Yao Wenkang, Minister of Agriculture.

"Regarding crop cultivation technology in a completely artificial environment, our Ministry of Agriculture has cooperated with the Aerospace Administration on similar projects. Councilor Liu has the most say in this regard," Yao Wenkang said.

"That's right. The Aerospace Administration has successively conducted 24 crop cultivation-related experiments in space over the past decade, including multiple环节 such as sowing, grafting, artificial pollination, and breeding. The experimental results are relatively successful. If planted in an underground base, the effect should be better than in space. However, all of this is just speculation, and no related experiments have been conducted in an underground environment due to the tight schedule," Liu Feiying of the Military Administration Department replied.

"I believe that for the sake of insurance, we need to conduct thorough experiments on several key systems that people rely on for survival, such as the air circulation system, the microbial detection system, the agricultural system, and the water circulation system, to ensure that everything is foolproof," Lu Yuanhang of the Water Administration Department suggested.

"Agreed!"

"Agreed!"

The councilors expressed their opinions.

"Then this matter will be led by the Military Administration Department, with the coordinated power of multiple departments, to start the relevant tests as soon as possible," the Speaker said.

"Yes!" Liu Feiying, Minister of the Military Administration Department, replied.

"Okay, next item on the agenda."

"Regarding the electricity issue, I have some questions I would like to ask Councilor He Jinghui," said Tian Huamao, Minister of Energy.

"Oh? Please speak," said He Jinghui, Minister of Security.

"How much authenticity is there in this geothermal power plant construction plan sent back from abroad?" Tian Huamao asked.

The geothermal power plant construction plan they were talking about was actually the plan used by Xiao Lin to entrust the foreign joint construction team to build the Antarctic Supercomputing Center. After obtaining relevant information, the foreign intelligence personnel of the Security Department secretly transmitted it back to the country. In fact, various countries did not impose relevant blockades against Hua Nation, because they all believed that this technology flowed out from Hua Nation.

"According to relevant intelligence, in mid-last year, a joint investigation and construction team composed of multiple countries successfully built the world's first geothermal power station in Antarctica. The plan used is exactly the one in our hands," He Jinghui, Minister of Security, replied.
