My empire of stars

But things are different now. With the advent of the Explorers Guild, they have the opportunity to get rich overnight.

As long as you find a planet with a large amount of rare mineral deposits, you can get 1% of the planet's shares. What an attractive condition.

This is one percent of a planet’s shares! Although there are hundreds of people in their spaceship, there are still a lot left over when divided equally among them, which is enough for them to become human masters.

As a result, a large number of people who were idle at home began to sign up. Although the empire had clearly stated the high risk of various disasters that it might encounter, it still could not stop the continuous flow of people signing up.

In order to prevent the empire's scientists from being tempted and feeling unfair, Li Mingze decided that all scientists who serve the empire will unconditionally receive 2% of the shares of all newly discovered planets.

And this undoubtedly greatly inspired the scientists of the empire. Although the number of scientists in the empire was very large, as new planets continued to be discovered, the shares they could allocate would become more and more.

This kind of benefit of being able to earn money while sitting undoubtedly makes scientists full of passion for work, and their loyalty to the empire is also constantly increasing.

Three months later, the first batch of explorers who had completed training boarded their respective group's spaceships and began flying toward the countless star systems around the empire.

These star systems may be full of risks or opportunities, and these young people will usher in their new tomorrow.

"With these idle adventurers, the star field that our empire has discovered will continue to expand."

"Not only that, they will also clean up all threatening creatures on the star system and planet for our construction troops."

"This also saves us a lot of resources and transfers the cost to the private sector. Your Majesty is really wise!" Tianyi came to Li Mingze who was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the lobby on the second floor of the Explorer Headquarters.

"You don't see the essence of the problem. As these explorers experience more and more things, we will be able to harvest a large number of experienced crew members during the war."

"Moreover, they will also serve as an early warning for us. Once a civilization quietly approaches us, we will be alert as long as one explorer warship is killed."

"Let us toast these lovely explorers." Li Mingze raised the wine glass in his hand to the endless stream of explorers outside the floor-to-ceiling window and drank it down.

In a space port newly allocated by the Empire to the Explorers Guild, the expedition army composed of the second batch of frigates is ready to go.

The 800-meter-long hull is packed with thirty large-scale mining, combat and maintenance integrated mechas and a hundred drones.

All the printing and manufacturing equipment related to the empire's top secrets were dismantled and replaced with ordinary manufacturing equipment obtained from Eva.

At the same time, all maps and information about the interior of the Imperial Star Territory have been deleted.

After any spacecraft suffers an accident, the remaining technology and data will not expose the current empire's trump card.

Even the individual armor and weapons equipped by the explorers are equipment from two generations ago that have been eliminated by the empire for a long time.

However, these explorers did not care. After the threatening civilizations around the empire were cleared, no powerful civilization has been exposed in the known area.

This also means that as long as they are within the observation range of the Empire's detectors, they will not encounter civilizations that are too high level. All they have to deal with are some primitive creatures or low-level civilizations that have not yet left the star system.

"I hope you can return with glory instead of disappearing into the sea of ​​stars."

"If you die during an exploration operation, the proceeds from your team's next successful exploration will be retained as a legacy to your relatives."

"So I also advise those with crooked ideas to give up. Don't think about increasing the dividend ratio by harming your teammates. That's impossible!"

"Okay, brave boys and girls, let's go!" As Adrian, the chairman of the Explorers Guild, waved his hand, the young men and women who had long been ready to go rushed towards their respective group's spaceship, and there was a sound coming from the port. There was a cheer.

Adrian shook his head, he really didn't know how much these little guys could survive.

He was a little envious of these young people, which reminded him of the time when he had just become the commander of the Empire's Yinbeqi Union Army.

After following the great Majesty Li Mingze for decades, he has regarded himself as a true imperial man, and he has also obtained the highest level of citizenship in the empire.

Due to his outstanding performance in many battles, the Empire gave him the management of the Explorers Guild based on his various contributions to the Empire.

Adrian, who was in a daze, did not notice that a young man who looked very similar to His Majesty the Emperor boarded a frigate among the crowd.

If this young man combs his side bangs and grows a beard, everyone will exclaim, isn't this the Emperor?

Yes, this young man is the clone of the idle Li Mingze.

When the empire was back on track and tens of millions of detectors used to detect traces of the Zerg were launched into the starry sky, Li Mingze suddenly found that he had nothing to do.

With the help of the shrewd and capable harem group, coupled with Tianyi's super computing power, all the complex affairs of the empire have been solved by Qiuyue and others before they reach him.

With nothing to do, Li Mingze decided to join a team of explorers and follow these young people to the unknown deep space.

Anyway, he no longer needs sleep. From now on, he can return to the true body of the empire during his body's rest time every day.

"Hello, my name is Stova, what's your name?" A girl of mixed Russian and Chinese descent walked up to Li Mingze and stretched out her hand.

"My name is Li Yiming. I'm very happy to join the same team." Li Mingze smiled and stretched out his hands to hold them together.

Although the appearance of this mixed-race girl is quite good, Li Mingze no longer has the desire to pursue beauty. Now a lot of pressure is on him, and he doesn't want to be entangled in feelings when he goes out to relax.

"Hey, Yiming, my name is Stover. I'm Stova's brother. Nice to meet you." A big man of mixed race came up and hugged Li Mingze.

"Everyone, please stop making trouble. If I remember correctly, the captain of our stone wall exploration team is Mr. Li Yiming." A young man wearing a mechanical eye stepped forward.

"The one who got SSS grades in all subjects?" Everyone showed expressions of disbelief.
