Swallowing the Stars: I, the New Master of Babata

He liked this secretary... She was capable and had a good temperament. Although her talent for cultivation was indeed a little lacking, with his guidance, breaking through to the God of War level would not be a problem, and reaching the Planetary level would only require a little effort.

As for why he likes Xu Xin as his secretary, putting aside the gender aspect, in terms of ability, Xu Xin has proven herself to be an indispensable secretary in the past month.

The complex affairs of the Planetary Security Defense Council.

She, as the chief secretary, helped with all of it.

Everything was in good order.

Dong Qing's main job is signing documents.

"Your Majesty, I will definitely work hard in my cultivation and break through to the God of War level as soon as possible."

Xu Xin sensed the concern in Dong Qing's words.

This made her want to get closer to Dongqing.

seriously.

Xu Xin initially thought that Dong Qing, the second strongest person in the world and known as the Azure Emperor, might be a difficult person to get along with.

However, after spending time together, she discovered that Dongqing was a very charismatic man who could easily attract women like moths to a flame.

Let's talk about her.

These days, traveling all over the country with Dongqing, I have truly seen a lot of the world and grown a lot. You could say I have been reborn.

From a recent high school graduate, to an innocent college freshman, she grows into the chief secretary, second only to the emperor.

Although she was originally a noblewoman from the Xu family in Jiangnan.

But for her, this was a meteoric rise.

"If I weren't afraid of forcing growth..."

Dong Qing was about to say that he could force the seedlings to grow faster.

A familiar figure came into his view.

"Lord Qingdi, please forgive my intrusion."

Isadora isn't known for her stunning back view; in the past, due to her age, she inevitably had some crow's feet around her eyes.

After breaking through to the planetary level, her lifespan was extended to a thousand years, and she returned to her peak period, the Underground Queen era.

But even the her from before.

That could be considered as still retaining her charm.

It's like a flower that's about to wither.

She still retains some of the beauty she had in her youth.

"It's alright, just tell me if you need anything, and I'll do my best to help."

Dong Qing was somewhat puzzled by Isadora's arrival. As the chairperson of the HR Alliance, she shouldn't have had time to look for him at this time.

The era of humanity's great counterattack not only marks humanity's return to its dominant position on Earth, but also brings with it massive wealth and cultivation resources.

She handles at least trillions of dollars worth of affairs every day.

How could she have this free time to look for herself?

"It's like this, Your Majesty, you may not know this, but with the arrival of the Great Counterattack Era, a massive amount of monster resources have entered the warehouse, and the currency settlement of the five great nations has been greatly impacted."

As Isadora spoke, she lightly tapped the smart communication device on her wrist. The next second, a holographic projection emitting blue light appeared in front of Dongqing.

"Has the currency been impacted?"

Dong Qing doesn't understand finance or currency; he's an outsider and doesn't understand the essence of currency.

But he knew that after the Great Nirvana, the currency would no longer be anchored to gold and silver, but to the monster itself.

The flesh and blood of a monster.

They are all very valuable.

It's probably not some kind of magic cure.

But it is definitely a strategic resource.

"The main problem is the devaluation of the currencies of the five major countries: the Chinese yuan, the US dollar, the euro... The money in the hands of martial artists is becoming less and less valuable."

Isadora had not expected the Great Counter-Offensive to arrive so quickly and so rapidly that she was somewhat unprepared.

"Supply exceeds demand, money is worthless..."

Dong Qing is not an economist.

I really don't know what to do.

"This problem is very simple, Your Majesty. The Planetary Security Defense Council can simply purchase the excess monster materials on the market."

Xu Xin felt that Isadora was just making trouble out of nothing. If she wanted to solve the problem of currency devaluation, she only needed to consume the excess monster materials.

A commodity-based monetary standard problem.

It's not even worth bringing this up in public.

"Secretary Xu, you're right, but we need to decide on a sovereign currency now: should it be the US dollar, the euro, or the Chinese yuan?"

Isadora sensed Xu Xin's confusion, but some things are not about knowing how to do them, but about choosing how to choose, and she had no right to make that decision.

"Let's settle in Huaxia coins!"

Dong Qing answered the question almost without hesitation.

Of the five major currencies, the Chinese Yuan is currently the most valuable.

Furthermore, that is...

As a Chinese, he had nothing to worry about regarding this issue.

As for avoiding suspicion, there is absolutely no need for that, since China is now the dominant power.

"By the way, I'll also contribute 22 trillion. You can help me acquire the surplus monster materials on the market."

Dongqing felt he wasn't the first to try something new, and Isadora wasn't there to warn him about currency devaluation, but rather to tell him he could take the opportunity to buy up monster materials on the market.

Some people may not understand, but the flesh and blood on the monster are not just for eating; they have great economic value. If you really want to make a comparison, you can compare the monster to the oil before the Great Nirvana.

Well known.

In 2013, before the great rebirth, oil was known as the "lifeblood of industry." It was more than just fuel; from gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel, to plastics, fertilizers, synthetic fibers, asphalt, and lubricants...

It can be said that every corner of modern industry is inseparable from oil. However, after the great rebirth, oil's status has been replaced by monster materials, and even replaced in every aspect of oil's original role.

That's what I'll say.

Oil can make monster materials.

Monster materials that can't be made with oil can also be used.

The monster's fat and body oils, after processing, can be refined into highly efficient biofuels with a higher calorific value than petroleum and cleaner combustion. The monster's bones and scales can be dissolved in a special reactor to produce high-calorific-value fuel gas.

The heart and core organs of a King-level monster can even serve as the starting energy for a small nuclear fusion reactor. Yes, nuclear fusion—more than a decade ago, human scientists successfully mastered nuclear fusion energy technology.

of course.

The most crucial application of monster materials is in medicine.

The blood of a King-level monster can even prolong life.

Even if you are an ordinary person without cultivation talent, you will not be able to break through to the planetary level and extend your lifespan.

Gene-based drugs made from monster blood can not only prolong life but also grant you superpowers.

Let's just say that.

After the Great Nirvana, humanity's technology and culture were not destroyed.

Life science and technology have undergone a radical transformation.

However, military technology has gone slightly astray.

It seems that besides laser cannons, there are only laser cannons.

Moreover, the technology of the laser cannon comes from the relics of an ancient alien civilization, and almost everyone can see that individual combat power completely overwhelms military power.

Neither Hong, the world's strongest, nor Qingdi, the world's second strongest, nor even Thor, who has fallen to third place, are beings that can be destroyed by firearms.

Nuclear bombs, too.

Hydrogen bomb or whatever.

Let's not even talk about whether the shot will hit.

Even if you manage to hit them, it's difficult to kill a strong opponent.

"Yes, Lord Qingdi, I will arrange the work immediately."

After receiving an accurate reply, Isadora didn't have the nerve to stay, since there was no opportunity to report privately.

When Xu Xin was no longer around and she had to go to university and worry about her studies, she would privately report her work to Dong Qing.

Since Vinina Bolenas can steal food.

Then why can't she also get a little taste?
