Wang Jiacheng led everyone to the Fulcrum Star in a salvage ship he named "Kaiwu".
More than 1 million years have passed since the Saxons and the Elephant Family Alliance united their fleets to attack the Molowa Empire, and the Fulcrum Star has also changed drastically.
Now it is a prosperous planet with 500 million intelligent creatures living there. Although its population is far smaller than that of other third-level life planets, considering its history and location, it is commendable that it can become such a large one!
Coastal cities on Earth can develop by relying on ocean water transportation and rich fishery resources. Living planets adjacent to the cosmic sea do not have this advantage at all. There are many dangers in the space sea, and all spaceships and warships are trying to avoid it. Who would sail here without any trouble, unless they like to seek death themselves, and there are no resources to use.
After the destruction of the Morova Empire, the Fulcrum Star was among the three systems assigned to the Saxon Kingdom and inevitably became a colonial planet.
The Saxon kingdom paid little attention to it, leaving it to fend for itself, and for many of its earliest years officials did not bother to dispatch it. This is also easy to understand. When the United Fleet attacked Molowa, it was to seize the Holy Emperor Star. By some mistake, they planned to occupy the three star systems of Molowa as colonial star systems. In the eyes of the senior officials of the Saxon Kingdom, these three galaxies are dispensable, worthless and tasteless.
Under such an environment, there are only a few times when the Fulcrum Star is remembered by the officials of the Saxon Kingdom.
As more and more people looking for the treasures of the Molova Empire gathered here, and based on this, it drove its development. The number of people exceeded 100 million, and many wars broke out. The Saxon Kingdom had to pay attention because the earliest settlers of Fulcrum Star were retired soldiers of its royal expedition fleet. Those soldiers started out looking for treasures, occasionally harvesting a small amount, and gradually settled here.
The early Fulcrum stars did not have to pay taxes and had no government officials. Most of them were soldiers and officers from the Saxon Kingdom's fleet. Whether their treasure hunt was successful or not, they all found that the land on the Fulcrum Planet was fertile, and the natural food grown here had higher yields and tasted more delicious than on other planets. So many people simply changed careers and became farmers, casually owning large amounts of land and making a small fortune. The Saxon Kingdom government also turned a blind eye and refused to interfere.
It attracts adventurous people with adventure, and retains the population by occupying land with random self-development. This is how the Fulcrum developed in a weird way.
The Saxon kingdom sent a baron governor to manage Fulcrum. The governor governed with the philosophy that doing more was better than doing less.
His first decision when he came to power was to legally recognize the legitimacy of those who had robbed the land earlier. To put it bluntly, he wanted to let bygones be bygones. Whoever robbed the land belonged to him. The second decision is that whoever dares to commit such acts in the future will be directly sentenced to life imprisonment for a felony.
As soon as the two decisions were made, the conflict was over. Originally, the fight was caused by land grabbing, but the baron wiped out the situation with one move, and the Fulcrum Star was at peace. The stable Fulcrum Star attracted more explorers to come here, and at the same time developed a food industry, and also allowed people from some surrounding galaxies to come here to enjoy different special snacks. Adventure and food have become the oldest features of Fulcrum Star.
The treasure of the Molova Empire is legendary and alluring. No one has found it for millions of years. Its level is appalling and its mortality rate is extremely high. The Fulcrum Star is still nominally an adventure treasure. In fact, very few people actually dare to explore it anymore. It is more like a cultural symbol.
Today, the largest number of people on Fulcrum are engaged in the gambling industry. Exploration is about gambling with life, and gambling is about gambling with money, which is very consistent with the character of Fulcrum people.
After the collapse of the Saxon Kingdom's colonial system, Fulcrum also broke away from the jurisdiction of its administrative system, but was militarily protected by the Saxon Kingdom. The Fulcrum Star is neither a country nor completely independent, and has become a special existence. This is the reason why it can vigorously develop the gambling industry without being restricted by Saxon law and will be protected by the powerful powers of the universe.
Wang Jiacheng looked at the slightly red planet outside the porthole window, and listened to his deputy Hu Lan introduce him to the history of the Fulcrum Star, and said: "Haha, Hu Lan, why don't we also take a gamble and see how our luck goes!"
Hu Lan waved his hands repeatedly: "I'd better forget it. Ever since I was a child, I have never won a bet with anyone. The way the chairman found the 9th reserve warehouse last time was really a stroke of genius. He was so resourceful that most people would never have imagined it. Even with good luck, this While we are on our way to Fulcrum Star, we might as well try our luck at Padella Casino!"
Wang Jiacheng's face became solemn and he sighed: "Luck is really hard to fathom. Last time, the 9th Reserve Warehouse originally had unimaginable wealth, but in the end it was an unfinished project. I am not lucky either. Many of the brothers on the ship have been following me for the past few years. , I couldn’t lead everyone to make a fortune, I’m really ashamed! Hu Lan, thank you very much for taking the lead this time and being willing to follow me to find the treasures of the Molova Empire, otherwise I’m afraid many people will desert and leave.”
Hu Lan said sincerely: "I admire the chairman's courage and courage. In order to avenge your parents and give up a good future, you dare to fight the pirates directly. Based on this, I firmly believe that the chairman can do great things. How can you do great things? If you don’t take risks and live a mediocre life, it is better to leave your name in the great things! I am willing to follow the chairman to take risks!"
Wang Jiacheng was a little moved. He patted Hu Lan on the shoulder and said, "Hu Lan, I won't say much else. In the future, I, Wang Jiacheng, will be indispensable for you, Hu Lan!"
"Ha ha!"
"Ha ha!"
The two laughed at the same time, and their relationship became much closer after the heart-to-heart talk. What used to be just a simple boss and employee are now like-minded friends.
"Hu Lan, just call me by my name in private from now on; I'm older than you, so you can call me Brother Wang!" Wang Jiacheng said boldly.
"Okay, Brother Wang!" Hu Lan was not polite and immediately changed his mind, and then asked: "Brother Wang, is it true that the entire planet of the Holy Emperor is made of Padra crystals? This is incredible! Now in the universe, Padra crystals Dela crystal mine is difficult to mine, the content is extremely low, and the reserves are scarce. There was such a magical planet millions of years ago!"
"It can't be false. The two princes of the ancient Morova Empire, Wendel and Ansos, both left publicly published memoirs. They once stayed on the Holy Emperor Star, and Ansos served as the guard fleet of the Holy Emperor Star. Commander. The book clearly states that a lot of the exposed ground on the Holy Emperor Planet is made of Padra crystals, which can be used as fuel for super-light engines by knocking them off directly. It can be seen that its purity has almost no impurities!" Wang Jiacheng said, eyes widening. Light, as if he had found the Holy Emperor Star.
"Haha, that's a good relationship. When we find the treasure, Brother Wang, you will definitely become the richest man in the universe! Haha, I will also take advantage of it!" Hu Lan said happily.
The treasures of the Molova Empire are famous and there is a lot of information. It is true and false until now. People who have no ability to distinguish can easily be confused by the vast amount of information.
For example, the Universe God Cult insists that the Holy Emperor Star is the treasure of the Universe God, and that its appearance one million years ago was just a joke for everyone, and in the end it returned to the Kingdom of God. A special planet like the Holy Emperor Star cannot be born naturally in the universe. It can only be gathered together by the God of the Universe and the God of the Universe using his omnipotent creativity.
Those magicians gave examples, saying, if the Holy Emperor Star is not special, why has no similar planet been found in the universe in a million years? At the same time, the magicians also listed a lot of evidence that the Holy Emperor Star does not conform to scientific theories. Their reasons sound reasonable, provided that intelligent creatures understand all the scientific truths of the universe. However, no one has proven that science has reached its end.
Although the science and technology of the alien world have been stuck in the fifth-level civilization for countless years and have not been able to break through, no scientist admits that the future of science is over. Everyone just judged that the conditions were insufficient, so they were unable to break through to the fifth level civilization.
The explorers sneered at the magic stick's statement and firmly believed that the Holy Emperor Star was still looking for a place in the cosmic sea.
"Well, one day, Hu Lan, you will also become a top rich man, and all of us in Kaiwu Company can get ahead!" Wang Jiacheng was infected by Hu Lan's emotions and said loudly.
"By the way, Brother Wang, why do we have to go to the Fulcrum Star? Why don't we just go directly into the Cosmic Sea!" Hu Lan asked strangely.
Wang Jiacheng smiled bitterly and thought: "After people get used to it, it is easy to fall into a fixed mindset. For example, Hu Lan now believes that the Kaiwu Hao can sail into the cosmic sea on its own and sail smoothly. There will naturally be star maps in the brain to guide it, and it will not Pay attention to the applicable scope of the star map. Just like people in the northern hemisphere of the earth take a plane to the southern hemisphere in the hot summer of July, they often ignore where it is actually winter at this time, which makes a lot of jokes. The star map in the universe is available in various countries. Secret, if explorers want to reduce risks and increase success rates, they must find ways to obtain the star maps of their predecessors. Now the Kaiwu is rushing towards the cosmic sea with fierce waves. If it exceeds 50 million light-years, it will lose its way. If not, you will never come back. This is because the manufacturer of the salvage ship gave us a free star map of 50 million light-years along the coast of the Space Sea. The average spacecraft has a star map of 30 million light-years at most."
"We are going to the Fulcrum Star to find useful star maps. Otherwise, let alone looking for the treasures of the Molowa Empire, we may go in the wrong direction!" Wang Jiacheng explained. He learned from a senior person that the last clearly recorded jump point of the Holy Emperor Star was 150 million light-years deep into the cosmic sea.
The huge hull of the Kaiwu entered the low-Earth orbit of the Fulcrum Star, attracting many small spacecraft to watch. Because no one has explored the treasures of the Molova Empire on a large scale for many years.
