"Sher~"

After one needle, the master who lived nearly 700 years old, had a flash of regret and despair on his face. Two minutes later, he looked at Zhou Ming with obedience and obedience.

The proud head also lowered.

Zhou Ming successfully added one slave to his hands.

Now you can communicate smoothly.

After a little brewing, Zhou Ming asked a few questions he wanted to ask to the fresh slave.

"Why create a money empire?"

"In order to save resources, reduce waste and pollution, and for permanent stability and sustainability." said the voice of the master mechanical.

"Why not take another path, the interstellar colonization path?"

"I can't leave, I don't have enough resources, and I can't meet the minimum requirements for interstellar colonization." The master shook his head.

"What resources are insufficient, how many are there?" Zhou Ming asked.

"Many, precious metals, rare earth elements, nuclear fuel, lack a lot."

"The resources of a whole planet are not enough? Add the moon star in your hand, and the resources of the two planets are not enough?"

"It's not enough, it's not enough. War has destroyed the planet below. 80% of the resources were destroyed in the war. The remaining 10% is used for reconstruction, and 10% can only transfer 5 million people to the moon star nearby. But what's the use? This star system, including the moon star, has only nine planets that can be used, two of which are too close to the sun and four are too far from the sun. In fact, there are only three. Then, the earth and moon star below are left. The planet is only half of the earth star and there is no water on the surface. Although the resources above can be mined and immigrated to tens of millions of people, its value is very limited and the transformation cost is very high."

"What do you mean is that you have to find a planet with water to carry out large-scale colonization?" Zhou Ming asked.

"Yes, a planet without water is just a resource star that provides mineral resources, not a colonial star with colonial value. Water is the simplest substance and the most precious substance. Especially for interstellar colonization, only water means everything."

"Then go find a planet with water, but other star systems."

"If I can find it, if I can go, do you think I don't want to send someone?"

The master looked at him like an idiot, then lowered his head and pondered: "The huge technical bottleneck has limited the progress of interstellar colonization."

“What technical bottleneck?”

"If high-power material reactors and large-thrust ion engines cannot develop these two things, even if interstellar colonization is carried out in this galaxy, it will be more profitable. The rewards obtained by interstellar colonization are not enough to supplement the lost materials on the road. This kind of colonization is meaningless."

Zhou Ming now understood what the master meant. What he meant was that it was not impossible to carry out interstellar colonization, but the technical bottleneck that was difficult to break through would make the cost so high that it was unaffordable.

Only by achieving technological breakthroughs and making interstellar colonization efficient, cheap and profitable can large-scale colonization be carried out.

Before a technological breakthrough is achieved, it is impossible to wait to transfer population to those resource stars, which will only increase the burden and will not make much sense.

For example, water is to transport millions of people to a planet without water, across a space distance of hundreds of millions of kilometers, and to transport millions of people the necessary water to live. How much consumption will be? How many times will it take to transport it each year? How many years will it take to continue to transport the millions of people on the resource planet be able to achieve self-sufficiency?

Only planets with water have the value of colonization.

"Matter reactors should be an upgraded version of nuclear fusion power stations, right? There are also ion engines, which have been available for a long time. The principles are not complicated, but now it is necessary to break through ion acceleration technology and increase the thrust of this engine?"

Zhou Ming, who still has a little understanding of the technological development route, asked the master.

The master glanced at him, nodded, and shook his head again.

"It is difficult to achieve breakthroughs in these two technologies?" Zhou Ming asked the essence of the question.

"It is necessary to build a particle accelerator with a length of 10,000 kilometers in space, conduct high-energy particle collision tests, crack the basic force formula of basic physics, and lay a theoretical foundation before the matter reactor and ion engine can be developed, but..."

The master shook his head and said, "More than 500 years have passed, and the resources I have accumulated in my hands can only build 10% of this particle accelerator."

After the particle accelerator is completed, it will take 4,500 years to complete. After completion, the collision test will be started, the basic force formula will be explored, and the theoretical breakthrough will be achieved, and resources will be accumulated for thousands of years before the conditions for interstellar colonization will be basically met.

These times add up to about 10,000 years, and then enter what the dominant calls the "adjustment period".

But today, the master has carefully improved the entire energy-saving and environmentally friendly plan, and his careful plan has been completely disrupted. His careful plan has not only been adjusted, but also himself has been adjusted together.

At this point, Zhou Ming finally figured out the causes and consequences of all the causes and consequences, and also understood the character of the dominant:

An ultimate environmentalist, long-term planner, and a stubborn and smart man.

The combination of these personalities is the perfect and hellish "The Empire of Money" under your feet.

But after all, he is just a senior programmer who overrides everyone, thinks he is god, thinks he is bright and correct, and thinks he will succeed. Before the nuclear war, he made a living by developing games.

He regarded this world as a game, he regarded himself as a player, others as NPC, he regarded him as the supreme master, and others as an ant that he was randomly fiddled with.

His ideals and goals were correct, but the method he adopted was extremely stupid.

"Even if humans on this planet can never leave this planet, what they have lost is just a trip to other colonial stars, your approach has made them lose love, family affection and friendship, conscience and morality, and all truth, goodness and beauty in human nature..."

"If you ask them about their opinions before you found this "Money Empire", more than 90% of them would rather give up the infinitely beautiful future than choose the hell in front of you."

"So, do you know why you failed? Because you will definitely fail. Even if the person who defeated you is not me, after several years, someone will stand up and overthrow your empire."

"Because you don't know that once human beings awaken the power of love, no matter how powerful the empire is, it will be vulnerable."

These words like hammers hit the dominant's heart one after another. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his face was extremely confused, his heart stinged, and he murmured to himself:

"Did I really do something wrong?"

...

The war crisis was lifted.

From the moment the master was controlled by the slave potion, his power collapsed in an instant.

So, Zhou Ming became rich.

The space station belongs to him.

100,000 unmanned fighter jets are under his control.

The military production line, Tiankou film production line of Yuexing Base, and the money production line that can produce countless money...all belong to him.

In addition, he also got a football-sized crystal item with a crystal clear appearance and a flashing color inside in Zhou Ming's core control room. This crystal item is the most valuable thing for Zhou Ming, and even more valuable than over 100 billion yuan of money.

The heart of civilization.

This is a civilized heart.

This civilized heart stores sufficient 1eb of scientific and technological information (1eb=102***b=1048576tb).

These scientific and technological information include the most complete and advanced medical technology, material technology, computer technology, intelligent robot technology, various industrial technology, agricultural technology, etc.

Any technological information that Zhou Ming wants, including in the heart of civilization.

From this we can see that the master is also a late-stage patient with a collection habit, and the result is that Zhou Ming is cheaper.

After squeezing out all the value of the master and copying his memory, the master who lost his value pulled out his space suit and threw it into space by Zhou Ming. His blood immediately boiled and his internal pressure was blown into countless pieces of space garbage.

"You have killed me once, and you are not innocent."

Five days later, Zhou Ming drove a space plane and returned to the ground.

...

Seeing that the small dot in the sky get closer and closer, the ground is boiling.

"Here I'm back, come back!"

"Hero, our hero is back!"

"It worked, he really succeeded!"

"Oh oh ~ War has been avoided, the world is peaceful, and we are safe!"

"Long live Mr. Xiao Guang, long live our great hero!"

“…”

On this day, Zhou Ming, who returned from triumphantly, was warmly welcomed like a hero.

On this day, the whole planet turned into a cheering sea, a celebration of grand occasions, people sang and danced, and drank Ning Zhen and drank Ning Zhen.

This day will be recorded in history and will become a major festival that people in later generations will celebrate every year.

This day is called "Liberation Day".

...

A few days later.

Dragon Blue Castle, in one room.

"Why don't you bring the master down and accept the trial of the century? Why do you deceive everyone and say that you have reached a peace agreement with the master? There are so many resources on the moon star, why don't you use it for all mankind, but hold them in our own hands. What's the difference between us and the master in doing so?"

Lan Mengxin frowned and said to Zhou Ming, with her face very confused.

Zhou Ming shook his head and said:

"You don't understand human nature too much. Human nature means that the more you give, people will not only not be grateful, but will take it for granted. The more you do, the higher their requirements will be, and they will never be satisfied. Even if you don't grasp that degree, those so-called rational, kind, conscience, and virtue will become dissatisfied and extremely greedy... The dominant sees this very thoroughly and does very well. As a ruler, you must not hold candy in both hands, at least with a whip in one hand."

In addition, the ruled people cannot completely lack a sense of crisis. Once they untie all the reins on their bodies, they will be careless. Once they learn that the master is dead, they will be happy and do not take any new rulers seriously, and they will make trouble.

Therefore, the "existence" of the dominant outweighs the disadvantages.

Moreover, Zhou Ming will soon withdraw from the game. Lan Mengxin has a weak and kind personality and is not very suitable to be a planet ruler. So in order to prevent major chaos from occurring after he leaves, the Yuexing Base is a way out for the Xiao Lan family (their surnames).

After hearing the man's words, Lan Mengxin nodded. She also knew some of the bad habits of ordinary people. There is a reason why men think about this.
