Reborn, I inherited a planet

Feng Siqi said: "There is no need for a catalog. What I want to know is which planets we have water-related trade with."

Nicholas Rhodes spoke in detail: "Water is a precious resource. After the former king's order, trade restrictions on this resource were very strict. In the past year, we have only cooperated with the Emperor Star."

Do you only cooperate with Emperor Star?

No wonder the Phoenix Star's situation in the galaxy is so tense.

Feng Siqi thought for a while and asked: "How long is our visa agreement with them this time?"

Nicholas Rhodes said: "This kind of resource is usually signed every six months. The agreement we recently signed with them is for one year."

Feng Siqi was curious: "Can it meet their water needs?"

Nicholas Rhodes shook his head and explained: "The first two agreements between us and Emperor Star have been cancelled. The new one can only guarantee the daily drinking water supply for one percent of their population. Their largest current The job, besides accepting us, is to find new water resources on the galactic planets.”

Although the Phoenix Star now has an orthodox heir, if the Emperor Star cannot find new water and mineral resources, it is not ruled out that they will break federal restrictions and implement forceful occupation.

After hearing the Prime Minister's words, Feng Siqi thought for a moment and asked in confirmation: "At present, we only maintain diplomacy over water and mineral resources with Emperor Star, right?"

Nicholas Rhodes nodded. "Yes, currently there is only Emperor Star."

Feng Siqi asked again: "So, our current water resources can solve at least one-third of Emperor Star's water consumption in the short term, right?"

Nicholas Rhodes shook his head. "No. If we only cooperate with the Emperor Star, we can even solve two-thirds of the Emperor Star's water consumption without huge changes in the external and internal environment of the Phoenix Star."

"Then do it."

Just do it?

Nicholas Rhodes asked in confirmation: "Your Majesty, are you going to reach an in-depth cooperation with Emperor Star?"

Feng Siqi shrugged. "Is there any other better way at present?"

Phoenix Star needs time to grow, and in order to grow, the most important thing during this period is to avoid war.

Nowadays, almost all worlds are short of water, but the degree varies. As a large water resource, Phoenix Star will fight with other planets if it does not fight with Emperor Star.

Since the Emperor Star is the biggest threat, then it is better to cooperate with them. After all, water is a renewable resource. As long as the normal operation of the planet can be maintained, there is nothing wrong with surrendering most of the resources in exchange for their protection.

And, it seems to be the only feasible way at present.

Feng Siqi said: "Prime Minister, let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs take the initiative to contact Emperor Star, show our sincerity, and have a good talk with them."

Nicholas Rhodes looked at the new king who had made another important decision and did not respond immediately.

She believed that weapons could save the planet, so she gave her unlimited support.

She believes that the Emperor Star is easy to talk to, and as long as it shows enough sincerity and reaches friendly cooperation with them, it can bring peace to the planet.

She ignored the technological faults and barriers, and also ignored the greed of the Emperor Star.

In the new king's world, everything seems easy.

But - these things are not easy, it does not mean that they are impossible.

What else does Phoenix Star have to worry about now?
She is the only heir left who grew up in Nancheng. Without her, Phoenix Star will become the second Blue Star sooner or later.

So what does it matter?
Even if she wants to do this, just do it, the worst is to be occupied by the Emperor Star.

Nicholas Rhodes did not doubt or ask any questions, and said directly: "Okay, Your Majesty, we will continue to collaborate with the Emperor Star for in-depth cooperation."

Feng Siqi heard his words with his own ears and raised his eyebrows in surprise, then paused and raised the corners of his lips. "Thank you, Prime Minister."

Nicholas Rhodes stood up and bowed his head to her.

Feng Siqi also nodded slightly.

She waited for the Prime Minister to leave the first reception room, and leaned back in the chair with a long sigh, feeling her little heart beating happily.

It was such a risk, but she actually succeeded!
Successfully persuaded the Prime Minister to agree to vigorously develop aviation scientific research weapons and agree to negotiate with the Emperor Star. This is really - really exciting!

Feng Siqi couldn't sit still and stood up. Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, he left the reception room without showing a face after a while.

With wind on her feet, she hurried downstairs and strode into the security department while the maids and guards were saluting her.

When Wang An and other soldiers from the security department saw her, they stood up and stood at attention.

Feng Siqi ignored them and went directly into their leader's office.

Wang An looked at the Queen passing by like the wind and wondered what happened in the first reception room just now.

Could it be that she was scolded by the prime minister and then came to the chief to cry?
When Wang An missed the queen so badly.

Inside the office.

Bai Qi looked at Feng Feng Huo Huo coming in, a calm and indifferent girl with pursed lips. "What are you going to do next?"

Feng Siqi was stunned when he heard this.

Seeing her unexpected look, Bai Qi put down what he was doing and said analytically: "If you hadn't convinced the Prime Minister, you would be depressed in the corner right now, and you wouldn't come to me so excitedly."

Feng Siqi is depressed now. "Can't I just ask you to find a solution?"

"You should know that I will not help you think of any way to interfere with the matters that the Prime Minister is responsible for."

"You weren't like this before."

Bai Qin was confused. "Before? Were you dealing with Nancheng's affairs?" He finished speaking: "The turmoil in Nancheng was within my responsibilities."

Of course it's not Nancheng, it's the previous life.

Feng Siqi slumped his shoulders in frustration and sat in front of his desk. "I told the Prime Minister about the long-term contract with Emperor Star Visa, and he agreed."

Bai Qi was quite calm after listening to her words.

Seeing that he had no reaction, Feng Siqi's joy slowly faded away. "Is this what you expected?"

"No." Bai Qi looked at her and was silent for half a second. "It's really beyond my expectation that you were able to convince the Prime Minister of this matter."

"Really? I didn't see it at all."

"On the matter of long-term cooperation, when the former king was still alive, we and the Emperor Star had very strong intentions, but we have yet to reach an agreement."

"Is the intention not strong enough?"

"Both parties had strong intentions, but they were shelved for various reasons."

Feng Siqi pondered. "For these reasons, even after their deaths, the long-term cooperation agreement was not continued?"

Bai Kuan nodded.

Feng Siqi said: "So do you think that if we have a long-term contract with Emperor Star, this road will not work?"

"Not necessarily." Bai Qin said consolingly: "Today is different from the past, and maybe there will be different results."

Shit, he just expected that even if he persuaded the Prime Minister, he would not be able to achieve the desired result, so he was so indifferent when he heard what he said to persuade the Prime Minister.

Feng Siqi was not discouraged and said firmly: "I have confidence in the Prime Minister."

Bai Qi looked at the energetic new king and said calmly: "Whether a war will break out is not something that can be controlled unilaterally, nor can it be changed by you alone. You don't need to focus on this matter for the time being. superior."

Feng Siqi said in agreement: "You are right, whether there is a war or not, life will continue."

Bai Qi asked: "Are you still insisting on developing scientific research now?"

Feng Siqi said without thinking: "Of course. Weapons are the bargaining chip for peace."

Weapons are the bargaining chips of peace. This sentence is really good.The previous kings were affectionate and moderate. Under the disaster and the peaceful development of the federal monarchy, although they also attached great importance to the development of battle weapons, they have always been tepid, and they have not taken active measures in the face of the poaching of talents. The measures resulted in a big gap behind the Emperor Star.

The new king grew up in Nancheng. Unlike the orthodox heirs with higher education, she has seen the darkest side of the world and knows that hard work is the only way to survive.

This is why she strikes so hard every time she fights.

Bai Yu looked at the bright-eyed and energetic girl, and suddenly felt the joy of harvest.

This harvest came faster than expected.

Feng Siqi looked at Bai Qi who was silent and raised his eyebrows and asked, "You don't agree?"

"No."

Bai Qi said to the girl who insisted on seeing her this time even though she was silent: "Leave the war aside. What are you going to do next?"

When Feng Siqi heard what he said, he thought about it and asked uncertainly: "Preparing to ascend the throne?"

After she finished speaking, when Bai Qi didn't speak, she asked doubtfully: "Is there anything else waiting for me to do?"

Bai Qi asked: "Don't you want to develop scientific research?"

Feng Siqi nodded. "yes."

"You don't think that you can accomplish this with just one word, do you?"

Feng Siqi frowned and asked hesitantly: "Although Chen Qingyan is responsible to me, he doesn't want me to recruit people and find a venue myself, right?"

She is a king, everything has been ordered, what else does she need to do?
Bai Qi looked at the innocent-looking person and asked her: "What is the most important thing in developing scientific research?"

Feng Siqi thought carefully and said cautiously: "Energy?"

“What is needed for energy?”

"Need someone to find you?"

"need money."

Bai Qi said directly: "With the generous conditions you promised to Chen Qingyan, this will be an astronomical amount of expenditure, and this expense will last for several years or decades, and there will be no profits or even results during this period." .”

Feng Siqi was stunned when he heard this.

Bai Qin sat up and said to the stunned person: "Your Majesty, don't you think that we previously placed emphasis on economy and technology because we lacked such foresight?"

Feng Siqi pursed his lips and remained silent.

Bai Qi continued: "I don't know the treasury in detail. You can ask the finance minister, but I think it will not be enough to pay for your grand decision."

Feng Siqi opened his mouth. "There's just—no other way?"

"Yes." Bai Qi said: "Increase taxes. But if you increase taxes as soon as you take the throne, you will lose the support of the people."

Hearing this, Feng Siqi bit the corners of his lips and frowned even more tightly.

She really didn't think so much, thinking that as long as she paid attention to it and gave an instruction, this matter could be solved. Who would have thought that there would be so many thorny problems.

Feng Siqi thought for a long time, raised the curtain, and looked at Bai Qi, who had handled everything well before. "That - Major General Bai, you must have something to do, right?"

Bai Qin looked into her hopeful eyes and reminded her. "What would you do if you had no money before?"

Feng Siqi said: "It doesn't cost anything."

"Suppose you have something that costs money."

"Try to pick up more scraps, or work more jobs."

Bai Qi:......

Seeing the pure sincerity on her face, Bai Qian said helplessly: "You asked me for money before."

Feng Siqi blinked and asked uncertainly: "You mean, I can ask someone for money?"

"It's a loan." Bai Qi looked at her with a hint. "You are the king now, there will be people willing to lend you money."

"But I can't afford it."

Bai Qi was silent for a while, then looked at the time and said, "The riding class at three o'clock in the afternoon will be changed to economics."

Feng Siqi hasn't reacted yet. "Economics? Is it so sudden? Didn't you let me learn mathematics before?"

“Economics is different from mathematics.”

"Can--"

Bai Qi didn't want to listen to her, so he said directly: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to go to class."

Feng Siqi looked at the intimidating Bai Qi, shut up, hesitated and confused, and finally left in confusion under his gaze.

Bai Qin and other aggrieved people went out and called Hei Qiong.

When Feng Siqi went out, he met Heiqiong who came in, and the corners of his mouth lowered even further.

She felt that the housekeeper was not as good as before.

Now he lets himself solve everything, and he's even more aggressive.

Wang An saw her coming in unhappy and leaving even more unhappy, and asked worriedly: "Your Majesty, is there anything I can do for you?"

Feng Siqi shook his head. "You can't help me."

He was a soldier in the surveillance room, so of course he couldn't help her.

Wang An didn't think he could help her solve any major problems, so he asked: "Would you like something to eat or drink? It is said that eating can make you feel better."

Feng Siqi waved his hand. "No."

The things she is encountering now cannot be solved by being in a good mood.

Feng Siqi left the security department and looked up at the blue sky and white clouds.

Isn't economics mathematics?

Can economics solve the funding problem of scientific research?
Feng Siqi, who is a little afraid of mathematics, feels deeply worried about the new course that will follow.

She was afraid that if she didn't understand, the new teacher would think her new king was a fool, and the image she had worked so hard to build for so long would be in vain.

Feng Siqi thought of the hole he dug a year ago and sighed deeply and helplessly.

Cong Rong came over from a distance and said, "Your Majesty, your new clothes have arrived. The designer is here. Do you want to try them on?"

Feng Siqi said without thinking: "No need to try, let the designer go back."

Cuan Rong persuaded: "Your Majesty, this is the first time a designer has made clothes for you. If you don't like or find anything inappropriate after trying it on, you can tell him directly."

"No need." After Feng Siqi finished speaking, he felt that his tone was too harsh, so he said, "Tell him that I believe in his ability and vision."

This designer is exclusively for the royal family. He has made many clothes for the queen and the second princess, as well as for myself in the previous life. There is nothing to try on.

And even if it's a new designer, she doesn't want to try it on. After all, she really doesn't care what style the clothes are or what fabric they are made of.

For her, as long as it is wearable clothes.

Feng Siqi was in a depressed mood. He ignored Cong Rong and went directly to the classroom. Everyone else found excuses to scold her.
