After marrying the interstellar boss, I was taken away!

Chapter 523 Breaking News
For the next three days, Qi Zhen, Bu Yidao and others stayed in the Rong Array until the fourth day when they had to go to work.

Refining is really fascinating.

As soon as she took over the job at Emperor Star, she received a bombshell news: The Monitoring Bureau detected at 7:05 this morning that the global temperature was about to warm up.

Qi Zhen was stunned for a moment, and a sentence popped up in his mind unconsciously: Is spring coming?
After a few years of stability, she seemed to have forgotten that it was still winter, the winter when people suffered from hunger, severe cold, and rampant strange beasts.

This kind of mentality is unacceptable.

She quickly adjusted her mindset, and suddenly thought of a very serious problem. The alien beasts that had been hungry for the entire winter must be extremely violent. No matter whether it was a developed planet or an inhabited planet, they would be their hunting targets.

The difficulty of collecting in the wild is increasing!
and also……

Base Crisis!

Thinking of this, Qi Zhenteng stood up suddenly and just happened to see the meeting notification in the group. He understood what was going on and hurriedly packed up the documents on the table and went to find his direct superior.

It was the first time for Qi Zhen to attend such a meeting. Because the Medicine Refining Department was far away from the conference room, when she and the head of the Medicine Refining Department arrived, most of the seats were occupied.

Seeing the huge crowd, she realized that it was not an internal meeting of the alliance, but a high-level meeting from the federation.

Not only the three giants of the alliance came, but also the military commanders and governors of each main planet were all present.

Qi Zhen's rank of fifth-level military officer was not good enough in front of the big guys. She was not qualified to attend such a meeting, even though she was a full-professional assistant.

But for some unknown reason, the person presiding over the meeting made an exception and allowed the deputy ministers of various professional departments to attend as well.

The seat is naturally not that good, it's the last row and the last one to arrive.

Of course, her immediate boss was not much better, he was just one row ahead of her.

However, Xiao Jing, because of his high status in the professional alliance, although he could not reach the main table, he also sat in the first row at the bottom.

Well, good, promising.

The meeting got straight to the point right from the start without even laying the groundwork.

The topics discussed were all about the crisis caused by climate warming and the rampage of alien beasts, as well as the countermeasures.

"The inspection bureau replied that the temperature will rise above zero degrees by September next year at the latest, and the ice and snow will melt completely. By then, all planets will inevitably experience a full-scale beast outbreak, and enter hell mode completely."

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became solemn after the federal governor said a few words.

Anyone can think of this problem, but the key is how to deal with it. Sure enough, the Archon spoke again, "Do you have any good countermeasures?"

The top leaders of each main planet lowered their heads, carefully reviewed the information at hand, and frowned in thought.

The conference room was so quiet that the only sound left was the flipping of papers.

After about ten minutes, a slightly plump middle-aged man spoke up, "We must make the usual arrangements as before, but in view of the evolution of the alien beasts' combat power, we must at least increase the defense by 30% on the original basis."

30%? How many resources would that cost? Even a three-star prosperous planet might not be able to do it right away, let alone those second-level planets and backward marginal planets. "How can 30% be that easy? The stability in the wild in the past few years can barely guarantee that no one will die. How can there be extra resources for defense?"

"But if we follow the previous deployment, I'm afraid we won't even have the chance to ask for help when the beast tide comes, let alone wait for support."

"..."

"How about concentrating the people on a few secondary planets? This will both reduce consumption and facilitate unified management?"

"Oh," a sneer came from the relatively quiet conference room, "Why not concentrate on the third-level planet? The third-level planet (main planet) safety zone is vast and sparsely populated. Not to mention the people from a satellite planet, even the residents of all satellite planets can be accommodated."

“How can that be possible!” They are just some poor people from marginal planets. It is already a blessing to settle them on the second-level planet. Do they dare to dream of a third-level planet?
The man was disdainful in his heart, but he knew that such an occasion did not allow him to say such words, so he smiled and said, "Commander Nie was born on a marginal planet. He knows the difficulties of the poor residents best. It is understandable for him to stand up for them."

At this point, the man's mouth curved even wider, "But we also have to proceed from reality. Let's not talk about the resource allocation issue for the original residents of the main planet. Let's talk about how the residents of these marginal planets make a living when they come to the main planet?
The positions in the safe zone are basically full, and they have nothing else to do except going out to collect. In the current situation, for the sake of personnel safety, the major planets will definitely reduce the number of hunting missions. What should they do?
Don't forget, the prices on a third-level planet are not comparable to those on a marginal planet. Their inventory for a year may not last for less than a month here. Are you sure you are helping them instead of harming them?"

"..." The man surnamed Nie's face instantly darkened. The reason given by the other party was true and he could not refute it.

But he was unwilling to give up just like that, "Use the financial resources of the main planet to take care of it——"

The man was interrupted by the man before he finished speaking, "What a joke! All the materials on the main planet are used for poverty alleviation. What can we use to exchange for resources and build defense?
Why not just remove the Star Protection Formation and let the strange beasts move in?"

The officer surnamed Nie's face flushed red after being scolded, and he gritted his teeth and said viciously, "Mr. Pang, is that what I meant?"

"Of course you don't mean that in your heart, but your actions do. Look at the Pengchen Star under your jurisdiction. It was once a third-level prosperous planet that was no less prosperous than Fengyao Star. What has it become now?

At the bottom of the list? Downgraded to a second-level planet? No, no, it's still unclear whether it can be preserved after the weather warms up, tsk tsk..." He looked down on this man's pettiness. He was already a commander, but he didn't have a broad mind. He treated a good third-level planet as a marginal planet. No wonder it was getting more and more dilapidated.

That consul is a coward without a mind of his own. He deserves to live in such poverty because he is allowed to have the final say.

"You——" Commander Nie was so angry that his lips trembled and he couldn't utter a word.

"Me? What's wrong with me? I don't provide supplies to the residents of the affiliated planets from time to time, and I won't always meet their requests and make my own finances unable to make ends meet."

"Just let them freeze to death or starve to death? I can't be as cruel as Commander Pang."

"Freezing to death or starving to death is because they are incompetent. Relying on the main planet for everything only shows that the management is incompetent. What's the point of keeping such people? I should have sent them away long ago!"

"Commander Pang is so impressive!"

The man picked his ears and put on a fake smile, "I speak harshly for your own good. This way it will leave a lasting impression."

"Shouldn't I thank you then?"

"That's not necessary. After all, I don't want to have anything to do with you, and I have no interest in poverty alleviation."

"You—Pang—"

"Okay, stop arguing. We are now discussing the defense against the beast tide." The federal governor looked seriously at Nie Xiangyu and Ji Heng beside him, "You really need to improve your management methods."
