Him and their stars.

Chapter 1000 A Little Change
Sometimes, Yu Lian really had to admire the lords of the earth, the arrival of the new dreadnoughts was such a good thing, but they could always bring out so many things that happened to them.

But in any case, work and life must continue.Therefore, Yu Lian and his team stayed in Gibraltar for 48 hours before officially boarding the special envoy ship Friendship set aside by the Foreign Affairs Committee.Prepare to complete the final leg of the journey to the Alliance capital, Nefe.

It stands to reason that this kind of diplomatic envoy ship, which is quite elegant in appearance and decoration, is specially used for foreign missions by consuls and senior foreign officials above.Yu Lian remembered that the last time he went to the Empire to take office, he was on an ordinary merchant ship chartered by the Imperial Cultural Exchange Troupe. Although he was also in the first-class cabin paid for by the public, after all, the specifications were far worse than that of a dedicated passenger ship.

"Before I knew it, I was actually such a big shot!"

"You are indeed such a big shot." Luo Zeshi said: "Your current opinion is the first-hand reference material for the National Defense Commission's subsequent military purchases, which involves orders for trillions of trust stars. I estimate that all alliances All the military predators are waiting to corrupt you."

Yu Lian carefully imagined the scene, but for the first time found that his imagination was a bit barren.

"For example, think of Mr. Belmont, who invited you to his boat two days ago."

This, of course, refers to Claire Belmont.This old man arrived in Gibraltar with Yu Lian and the others on a military transport ship. He had just arrived at the port when he suddenly discovered that the famous luxury cruise ship "Black Cloud" had been waiting at Xinggang for almost a week.

Yu Lian looked at the cruise ship named after the Rose Princess, and it was impossible to say that he was not interested in those extravagant furnishings.However, after all, he still had business to do in Gibraltar, so he could only reject the other party without hesitation after being very moved.

Belmont was a little sad, saying that he obviously wanted to walk with his best friend in the heart, brother Yu Lian, but after all, everyone was an adult who couldn't help themselves in the world, and it was true that business was the most important thing.Besides, he, Master Krell, also has a military position in the Alliance after all, and he is a little sensitive if he really wants to get on the diplomatic service ship of the Community, so he can only leave first.

"Then brother, let's go ahead. Before your ship enters Nefer, you have to stop in the Turanca galaxy. See you later. Hehehe, brother, I will arrange it in advance, so don't worry."

Yu Lian really wanted to ask him what he planned to arrange in advance, but Brother Krell had already gone offline with a very layered malicious smile.

This guy must be sure that he must be planning something, but Yu Lian's cosmic perception didn't give the slightest warning, so he simply put this matter behind him and focused on the business.

In this way, at 10:27 on October 12, when the Friendship officially left Gibraltar Starport, it headed towards the Alliance.

Of course, when sailing, there was a small episode.When the diplomatic ship Friendship passed through the D02 gravity well channel in this galaxy, it traveled together with a large passenger and cargo ship.

It was an interstellar camel-class transport ship, a very common public transport ship in the community.Although the absolute performance can only be said to be sufficient, and the appearance is not beautiful, it is durable, high-quality and cheap.However, Yu Lian saw the logo of the New China Transportation Company on the side of the ship.

The scale of this company is small, but its history is very long. It can be traced back almost four hundred years ago, when the ancestors of the Bai family discovered the new Shenzhou star area.

Of course, the current New China Transportation Company is not so much an industry of the Bai family, but a collective enterprise under the government of the New China Star District.

When the two ships were parallel, the camel-class transport ship directly sent a friendly and salutary message with its lights.

"They are paying tribute to you," Colonel Silva said.As Yu Lian's (only forty-eight hours) deputy, a glimmer of joy and pride inevitably flashed across his face.

The colonel went on to explain that it might have been rude to send an instant message directly.At least some of the bigwigs would find this an offense, but it would be all right if the lights signaled.

Yu Lian asked, "To me, or to this diplomatic ship?"

"Of course it's to you. People from New China have always been very unruly. If they don't agree, even if it's the Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee or even the ship of His Excellency the President, they won't give face." Luo Zeshi laughed and said: "You are in Gibraltar was there for two days and it was no secret that the ship would be on board."

Yu Lian smiled and said, "Then let's respond as well."

Therefore, the Friendship first sent a friendly signal to the Camel on the opposite side, and then opened an active communication request.Just like that, the consular ship and the transport ship started chatting across the space as they moved forward... Well, it was quite like a taxi driver chatting with his colleagues on the walkie-talkie.

Yu Lian did not participate in the chat.He also knew that joining in at this time would only put a lot of pressure on the opponent.Of course, not speaking does not mean not listening. Anyway, he has nothing to do now, and he has been very interested in the gossip of these ordinary crew members in his previous life.These crew members who have been traveling all their lives are almost the most well-informed group of ordinary working people. Although they will inevitably run the train with their mouths full of chatter, they can actually collect a lot of information after squeezing out the water.

No, Yu Lian knew from these chats that half of the ship's cargo hold had already been loaded with various machinery and industrial products, and the other half of the cargo hold was reserved for food.They were going to stop at Xinshuntian, the capital of the far-coast star region, to transport food from there, and then transfer back to Xinshenzhou.

In addition to the cargo, there are more than [-] immigrants with their children and old children in the cabin. They are either war refugees from the Atlantis sector, or unemployed residents of the community from the Gibraltar galaxy. People were even residents of the Terra star area and even the earth itself.

Anyway, the decision-makers of the earth are kind-hearted, and they really don’t want to see the poor. In this way, they can plan the development of the Terra star area as they imagined, and they can also force the labor force to migrate to remote star areas to complete the expansion of civilization.Isn't this a win-win?
Of course, for hundreds of years, the "barren" and remote New China star region has always been accumulating population little by little in this way.It doesn't sound very efficient, but generations of people have insisted on doing this for a hundred years, and this obsession alone is admirable.

"Actually, New China has more potential than imagined. Although there is only one naturally habitable planet discovered so far, those desert and ice-bound planets are rich in mineral resources. If you can invest a lot of money, you can also improve the planet's environment. Adaptive transformation. If they were willing to accept the support of Tianyu during the colonial period of the empire, as long as the empire sent around [-] million laborers or slaves within a hundred years, the entire star region would have been developed long ago." Luo Zeshi said.

"Probably because the old Bai family and his followers have always regarded themselves as unruly adventurers. If they were willing, the Bai family could have at least one earl three hundred years ago." Yu Lian laughed.

"After the founding of the People's Republic of China, they are also unwilling to accept the investment and joint development of the alliance consortium." Luo Zeshi added.

"Maybe those unruly adventurers think that this kind of environment is pure. They would rather go slower and guarantee their autonomy. Otherwise, the New Shenzhou Transportation Company might have to be labeled as the Shanghai Shenzhou Ship Regiment .”

Luo Zeshi felt that the other party seemed to be mocking him, but he couldn't find any evidence.

Yu Lian asked again: "However, are there still war refugees in the Atlantis sector? I thought the war between the Kingdom of Circe and the Principality of Hailar was over."

"However, the conflict over the Fermo Nebula has become more intense. There is a Torren warlord who does not know who has received funding, and his strength has grown a lot. He looks ambitious and wants to build a country. However, he is occupying After a few planets, it was besieged by the surrounding opponents united."

The Fermo Nebula is sandwiched between the spheres of influence of the Empire and the Alliance. It was also the home of the Arrow Empire back then, and now it is the star field where the two overlords compete most fiercely.Precisely because the forces of the two sides are evenly matched there, on the contrary, a three-way zone has been formed, where wild warlords, gangsters, and cult forces rise and fall one after another, fighting endlessly.Of course, there are also self-help organizations of ordinary residents who want to fight for a pure land where they can live and work in peace.

But no matter what, in the eight-plus centuries since the common calendar, no political entity recognized by the Galactic Civilization Council was born in this nebula.

Of course, it's not that no one wants to change all of this. For example, the current warlord of Torren, who is too energetic, should be a typical example.

"I thought that since General Umber, known as the 'Heart of the Sacred Flame', was killed last time, the empire would not allow any powerful figure to appear in the Fermo Nebula."

"The current internal situation of the empire is not stable, and the Flemish and Sumi people have revolted again..." Luo Zeshi showed a knowing smile, and secretly gave a thumbs up.

Yu Lian really wanted to say that this really has nothing to do with me, but no matter what he said at this time, he was trying to hide it.

"This kind of riot is naturally impossible to shake the rule of the empire, but there are still predators from the New World. Since they are unwilling to invest energy there, the situation will naturally deteriorate."

Yu Lian nodded: "I bet Horatio Venn's lifelong happiness, this very spirited Torren warlord, and the other warlords who are besieging him are all supported by the alliance."

"...However, although the ground on the alliance side is relatively peaceful, the Congress seems to be quite turbulent. They are discussing the issue of the rights of all citizens. There are also congressmen who say how to resolve conflicts between the laws of the alliance countries and the laws of the alliance. How should the nobles of the franchised countries that are still in the monarchy system be defined? Nephi probably doesn't have the energy to take care of Fermo's affairs now."

"That's right, what a pair of radiant crouching dragon and phoenix chicks!" Yu Lian sneered.

But in any case, in the last month alone, there have been three incidents of pirates bombing surface settlements with neutron bombs.Many residents of the Fermo Nebula and even the surrounding small countries have also become war refugees and are flocking to all parts of the galaxy.

Many refugees would rather risk their lives to go through the Circe Kingdom and the Principality of Hailar, which had just ended the war and were far from being restored to peace, and ran all the way to the territory of the community to seek refuge, rather than stay in their hometown.

The only good thing is that at least there are still many places in the community that are willing to take in refugees.

To put it bluntly, the refugee problem has never been a big problem. As long as the decision makers are not trying to show their votes but want to solve the problem and not get used to their problems, refugees can quickly be transformed into productivity.On this point, Yu Lian has great confidence in the old adventurers of New China, and Mr. Qi also has confidence.

The Friendship and the Camel advanced side by side for another forty-eight hours, until they reluctantly parted ways at the Black Penguin Junction galaxy.The former will "turn left" and pass through the borders of three small countries along the main channel known as "Galaxy Highway 05" before entering the territory of the alliance.The latter will continue to "go north", and will enter the territory of the far shore star region.

After the farewell, it was another week-long voyage, and the Friendship finally entered the Union border. After a short border inspection, it took another six hours to replace the energy pack and "polish" the outside of the ship-no way , like this kind of small civilian ship, endurance is such a thing.And after all, it is not a military armor plate, traveling in space all year round, the hull has also been burned by various cosmic radiations, and even a naturally formed layer of coating will be formed on the outer wall of the ship.If it is not dealt with in time, it will affect the ship's speed, communication and equipment life.

Opening "washing stations" and "car repair shops" on traffic arteries full of people has always been a big business.

Of course, the Friendship is a diplomatic ship after all, and it can enjoy the highest priority and top-notch service for free.

The Friendship entered the alliance's Fangruo alliance country, passed through the territory of the two alliance countries and four star regions along the way, and finally arrived at the gateway of the capital Nefe - the Turanca galaxy.

According to the original plan, the Friendship will carry out the last maintenance and "refueling" here before arriving at Nefe.

This galaxy may be regarded as one of the busiest and most famous traffic arteries in the entire universe.Strictly speaking, this place should actually be regarded as the starting point for the Gabians to conquer half of the galaxy, rather than their home planet, Nephi.

Although the Friendship has already undergone an inspection at the border, it still needs to go through an inspection to enter the central star area where Nefe, the capital of the Alliance, is located. It is even stricter than the first time. The staff is quite polite.

After a symbolic inspection, the customs officials even boarded the ship in person and respectfully handed over the pass.After hearing that the captain was going to change the battery and polish and wax the boat, he even ran back and forth to help everyone arrange maintenance slots.

However, in this way, it was getting late.

Moreover, because of the fast pace along the way, the Friendship was actually more than three days faster than the original plan. Yu Lian saw that the crew was somewhat tired, so he ordered all the crew to move freely and rest in the Turanca galaxy for two days. Fourteen hours, starting at the same time tomorrow.

Everyone cheered immediately, and they all said long live Your Excellency the General.As for Yu Lian, he also decided to steal half a day's leisure from Fusheng.He knew that the Turanca galaxy, the thoroughfare of the nine provinces (star regions), was a very promising black market, and he might be able to get some good things.If it doesn't work, you can also find a gourmet restaurant in a different star to have a full meal.

For example, in the orbital airport where everyone landed, in the southern area of ​​Silver Velvet City, there is a small restaurant run by Waying people.Although small, it is also a time-honored brand for hundreds of years.

To be honest, most of the dishes of this race are not in line with human tastes, but there is only one, a river fresh soup made from fermented sour jam, which is very appetizing, refreshing and healthy.

Well, once recalling the taste of the previous life, Yu Lian suddenly felt that he started to salivate.

After the crew left, he changed into civilian clothes and set off.However, just after they walked out of the airport building, they suddenly found that three Thunderbird sedans that looked like they were luxury special editions were parked by the side of the road.Even if it is located at the gate of the airport where the flow of people is like weaving cloth, it is full of aura, attracting at least half of the eyes.Five or six big men in formal suits stood by the car respectfully.

All of them have bulging waists. If the possibility of wearing warm babies is ruled out, they must be wearing weapons.

However, among these big guys who are not easy to mess with, there is a gentleman who looks very refined. When he saw Yu Lian appearing, his eyes lit up and he hurried over to meet him.
