I ask you to design equipment, but you do science fiction for me?

Inside the interstellar warship, Tang Yumo informed Professor Wang about some matters concerning the Nine Heavens Warship via video link, handing over all matters related to the construction of the Nine Heavens Interstellar Warship to Professor Wang for handling.

Chen Anrong was extremely surprised when she learned about this.

This was something he hadn't expected. He had initially thought it was just a swap between him and Professor Wang, and he felt very resentful.

However, Tang Yumo and the others had no complaints.

But now he is surprised to find that he has a very small capacity for tolerance.

Tang Yumo entrusted such a huge project to Professor Wang without the slightest hesitation, and she also carefully explained to him all sorts of details and issues about the Nine Heavens Starship, including some of her personal thoughts.

Such selfless behavior is truly admirable; Chen Anrong herself felt she lacked that kind of magnanimity.

He would feel uncomfortable even for a single location on an insulated planet, let alone a massive project like the Nine Heavens Interstellar Battleship.

If it were me, I definitely couldn't be as composed as Tang Yumo.

After Tang Yumo finished talking with Professor Wang, Chen Anrong sat down next to Tang Yumo, poured him a cup of tea, and asked him with great curiosity why he was willing to entrust the Nine Heavens Starship project to Professor Wang.

Doesn't he regret it?
Don't you feel even a little bit reluctant to part with it?

He had already put in so much effort and was about to succeed, but now he had to hand it over to someone else. At that time, the credit would belong to someone else, and it wouldn't have much to do with him.

Tang Yumo smiled, picked up the teacup next to her, and took a sip of water.

The water was a little hot, so he put it back in the same spot and gently flicked a strand of hair behind his ear.

"What is the purpose of building the Nine Heavens Starship? It is not for me to achieve anything or show off, but to think about the entire planetary base."

"It was built to protect humanity."

"Based on this, as long as it's good for the Nine Heavens Starship, it doesn't matter who takes over."

"Professor Wang is more meticulous than me. He can find more problems in the work. I have also done what I should do. The rest can be left to him."

"As for the issues you are considering, they are all based on personal thoughts, or more precisely, on personal interests."

"When you put personal interests out of your mind, this kind of thinking naturally disappears."

After listening, Chen Anrong nodded in agreement, as if it made sense.

Thinking back to his thoughts at the time, he blushed and felt ashamed, not daring to look at Tang Yumo.

My dissatisfaction stems from my personal perspective.

But if we start from the entire planetary base, it seems that, just as Tang Yumo said, there's really nothing wrong with it.

It's simply a matter of changing who manages it.

Professor Wang is superior to him in both experience and expertise, making him a more suitable candidate to take over.

Moreover, most of the experts on the insulated planet were familiar with Professor Wang, making their work much easier.

As a newcomer, although the experts respected me, could I truly accept their respect? There was clearly still a certain distance between us.

His identity and profession, in particular, will cause some inconvenience to the work.

His identity is rather unique. Although no one questions his identity now, he is not an expert in his field and doesn't understand many things.

He finds it difficult to discuss things with experts, which makes it very difficult for him to make decisions. He needs to consult other people's opinions, which prolongs the decision-making process.

The two talked for a long time, especially about management.

Tang Yumo shared some of her own opinions, from which Chen Anrong benefited greatly.

After their conversation, the two went to visit the experts who had just been recruited on the starship.

This group of experts is currently led by just two people.

The two people have different responsibilities.

Chen Anrong was mainly responsible for their daily lives and psychological issues, while Tang Yumo was mainly responsible for teaching them knowledge.

For example, knowledge about the universe and planetary bases helps them avoid some dangerous problems, and also provides them with some basic courses.

For example, what principles should they follow when working at a planetary base?

The simplest point is that protective clothing is required for any job, and it is not allowed to work without it.

In addition, there are other details that need to be explained to them one by one.

Explaining these things to them on the interstellar warship saved a lot of time.

Once they arrive in the Andromeda Galaxy, they can perform some simple tasks normally. After gradually becoming familiar with the system, they can be assigned to more important tasks.

Chen Anrong's matter is relatively more troublesome and complicated.

He needs to put a lot of effort into understanding these people, their living conditions, and their psychological development.

If someone is found to be in a bad mood, he needs to help them adjust in a timely manner.

If someone is found to have poor character or psychological problems, decisive measures need to be taken.

Whether to appease the person or kick them out of the team, these are the questions Chen Anrong needs to answer.

Life on the interstellar warship was generally rather boring.

Although starships have a lot of space, the area where they can move around is limited.

After about a month, they finally arrived at the Andromeda Galaxy, which they had been longing to visit.

Many experts initially thought they could go directly to a planetary base, but upon arriving, they discovered that they could only stay inside the interstellar warship for the time being.

They haven't found a planet suitable for building a base yet.

At this time, Su Chen had already met up with Yuan Jingna and they connected via video call.

She first explained the situation of several interstellar warships. These warships needed major repairs due to their long voyages, but the current situation did not allow for this. Therefore, they needed to find a suitable planet to build a base as soon as possible.

At the very least, we need to find a suitable planet for testing interstellar warships.

In addition, Yuan Jingna reported to Su Chen the several planets that she had already prepared for detection.

These are some of the promising planets they've discovered so far. If Su Chen doesn't find any that appealing, they will continue exploring.

If Su Chen selects one of them, they will establish a base on that planet, making it the first stronghold in the Andromeda Galaxy.

Su Chen carefully examined the collected information, as well as various pictures and videos.

Behind him, Chen Anrong and Tang Yumo were also watching.

The two whispered to each other which planet was better.

The two women clearly had different ideas. Chen Anrong had her eye on a larger planet, while Tang Yumo had her eye on a smaller one. Chen Anrong didn't dare argue with Tang Yumo, but she had her own thoughts and planned to voice them at a crucial moment.

After reviewing all the information, the two looked at Su Chen with a hint of anticipation.

Su Chen turned around and asked them which planet they thought was more suitable, and Tang Yumo shared her thoughts first.

"That small planet is nice. I think it's a good place to establish a base. The geographical location is also good, and it's very safe among the many star systems."

"Even if there is danger such as meteorites, the surrounding large planets can help to resist it."

Then, Chen Anrong expressed her opinion.

He didn't know much about this, but he had read some books about planetary bases and knew the basic requirements for establishing one.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Personally, I think that big planet is better. Although there are certain risks, its geographical location is excellent. On this planet, we can contain many other interstellar routes."

"If anyone wants to cross from here in the future, we will be able to detect them immediately."

After the two finished their discussion, they both looked at Su Chen.

He has the absolute right to decide, and ultimately, the choice should be made by Su Chen.

Su Chen listened very carefully to both of their suggestions and offered them some analysis.

He told the two of us about the advantages and disadvantages of large and small planets, as well as some other issues.

The two listened attentively to Su Chen's words, and immediately felt enlightened. They realized that their thinking was still limited to a certain area and was not as insightful as Su Chen's.

In the end, Su Chen chose the small planet that Tang Yumo thought was the best option.

Why choose this small planet? Su Chen gave a clear answer.

This small planet is very small, which is perfect for their current situation.

Building on a large planet would be a waste of a lot of financial, material, and human resources, making it a losing proposition.

This is not what they need either.

What they need right now is a suitable planet to establish a base, a temporary residence, and then they will launch a larger search to find a better planet.

If it proves suitable, they will establish a large base on this planet, which will then serve as their headquarters.

This is the core of establishing the base, and it is also the main task at present.

Besides these, there were many other reasons, which Su Chen did not elaborate on.

He hoped that Tang Yumo and Chen Anrong could learn something from their work, rather than just talking about it.

As time went by, they sailed to the small planet they had discovered.

In the Andromeda Galaxy, they did not establish many space jump bases and could only travel by the most ordinary means, so their speed was relatively slow.

As usual, before entering the planet, they will first launch some probes to observe and detect the interior of the planet and get a general understanding of the situation inside.

Subsequently, they will send small interstellar warships equipped with drones and unmanned robots to conduct detailed explorations and collect samples of soil from the planet's interior.

After returning and conducting various tests to confirm that there are no major problems, they will first send an interstellar warship inside.

Taking Chen Anrong's situation into consideration, in order to appease him, Su Chen entrusted Chen Anrong with the entire mission of exploring the planet.

Tang Yumo was responsible for assisting from the side.

Chen Anrong was both excited and nervous.

Because he knew nothing about exploring planets and had no idea what to do.

I looked at the relevant information overnight and roughly understood what to do, but I still didn't know the specific details.

The only saving grace was that Tang Yumo was there, so he could ask her any questions he had.

Tang Yumo was also quite sensible, knowing that this was to take care of Chen Anrong, so he acted as a competent assistant.

Basically, everything was under the unified command of Chen Anrong, with him assisting from the side and filling in any questions that Chen Anrong had forgotten.

Under Chen Anrong's command, an unmanned interstellar warship entered the planet's interior and began collecting data.

After collecting the samples, Chen Anrong organized experts to conduct research.

Everything went very smoothly, and the first interstellar warship soon entered the planet.

Chen Anrong took the lead, personally boarding the first interstellar warship, putting on protective clothing, and carefully disembarking from the warship to arrive on this desolate planet.

This planet is not much different from most uninhabited planets. As far as the eye can see, there are only barren mountains and huge rocks, and no plants can be seen. The wind and sand are blowing, giving people a great sense of pressure.

Surrounded by a crowd, Chen Anrong arrived at the top of a mountain.

Looking down, all I could see was a vast expanse of barren mountains, stretching as far as the eye could see, seemingly merging with the horizon.

In a faraway place, a thin line appeared between the horizon and the barren mountains, separating the two.

Chen Anrong slowly raised his hand, as if trying to feel the air around him. Because he was wearing a protective suit, he couldn't feel anything, not even the wind.

Chen Anrong was extremely satisfied with her protective suit, which was specially designed for landing on a planet.

Afterwards, everyone collected various items and returned to the starship to begin their research.

With all the equipment ready, construction of the planetary base began at Chen Anrong's command.

Chen Anrong was no longer able to direct the construction, as she simply didn't understand it. So Tang Yumo had to take over, and Chen Anrong returned to her position as assistant, running around with Tang Yumo and learning about the relevant matters.

A month passed in the blink of an eye, and the base construction was completed.

Their base is a simple, mobile base that can be moved and leave the planet; it is a mobile base.

After most of the base was completed, Tang Yumo began to order experts to study air purification systems, power systems, and so on.

Once all of this is completed, the main force can enter the planet's interior.

They could actually enter now, but for safety reasons, Su Chen and the others remained outside the planet.

Another month passed, and the base was fully completed.

Su Chen and the others then arrived at the base aboard an interstellar warship.

As soon as they entered the interstellar warship, Tang Yumo and Chen Anrong reported the current situation to Su Chen.

Inside the planet, they found no useful resources, and a simple underground exploration revealed no metallic or mineral substances.

Chen Anrong was quite disappointed. With no resources whatsoever, this planet was essentially a dead star, utterly worthless. (End of Chapter)
