Chapter 791: A Million Immigrants

In the year 7140 of the Blue Star Xia calendar, Jiang Star

Four large flying machines took off from the survival base on Jiang Star. They flew in four directions: north, south, east, and west. During their flight, one of the cabins opened, and countless fluffy things flew out.

These are special plant spores that have been modified in a laboratory. They can easily survive in the environment of Jiang Star and quickly cover it with green.

At the same time, dozens of factories have appeared on Jiang Star, all related to ore smelting. They discovered that Jiang Star has many rare mineral veins from Blue Star, which are extremely valuable, and some unknown metal elements.

Therefore, they quickly set up factories and intentionally simplified some waste gas treatment processes, releasing large amounts of carbon dioxide and other gases into Jiang Star to lower the oxygen levels.

In addition, dozens of formations constantly create clouds and mist to form a cloud layer, reducing some ultraviolet rays; otherwise, the ultraviolet rays on Jiang Star would be enough to kill all ordinary living things.

In the laboratory within the survival base, hundreds of species are already undergoing experiments. In a few years, they may be introduced to Jiang Star to increase its biodiversity.

"Ancestor Lin Cong, Lin Guobin Senior, it’s your turn to drink."

In the survival base, Liang Long was drinking with Small Shadiao and Lin Guobin. They were all part of a five-person leadership group and interacted often. Since Liang Long wanted to befriend Small Shadiao, they quickly became friends.

Lin Guobin was a younger member of Small Shadiao’s circle, often invited to drink with him, and over time, they became familiar with each other.

"Little Liang Long, your brewing skills are really impressive, better than my brother’s."

Small Shadiao was having a great time drinking because here, he felt truly free. Being in a high position, no one was there to restrict him, making him very comfortable.

"Ancestor Lin Cong, the wine I brew has won first prize at the Huaxia International Wine Fair. I just don’t want to make money from it; otherwise, those wine companies in Huaxia wouldn’t stand a chance against me."

"Little Liang Long, you are also very good at cooking. Have you won any awards?"

"I learned for a few days and went through eighteen cuisines of Huaxia. My boss, Cao Wang, has eaten at my place twice and has stayed for three years without wanting to leave."

Liang Long said that to become the best person in Huaxia, he didn’t just want to master cultivation and research; he aimed to possess all the life skills. To him, these skills were very simple. It took no time for him to learn and excel, reaching the highest level quickly. Compared to others who studied for a lifetime, he was far better—it’s true that people can outshine others.

Lin Guobin was not very talkative. He listened to the two boast while he just focused on eating and drinking. Liang Long’s skills were truly amazing. Lin Guobin, also a high-ranking person in Huaxia, never lacked for material comforts, but what he ate and drank compared to Liang Long’s was really different.

Liang Long noticed that the atmosphere was just right and quietly changed the topic to the era of cultivation. Small Shadiao, though often petty, lacked great wisdom. When it came to intelligence, he was no match for the genius that was Liang Long. Plus, he didn’t think Liang Long had any bad intentions, so he spoke freely, mixing truth with tall tales.

Lin Guobin knew that Liang Long was intentionally probing about the era of cultivation, but he also did not stop him. The stories from that time were very mysterious for the new generation of cultivators, making them very curious. Many, including Liang Long, were eager to learn about the tales of the cultivation era.

The year 7180 in the Xia calendar, Huaxia

In the space center, Cao Wang received messages from Blue Star one after another and compiled them for Lin Jiang. At this time, the five hundred thousand immigrants had already reached Jiang Star after forty-five years and had all entered the survival base.

Furthermore, the transformation plan for Jiang Star was going very smoothly. Tall plants were already growing, and a few animals had started to inhabit the area. Although these were transformed from Blue Star, it was enough to prove that the plan for Jiang Star had reached a certain level of success.

Thus, Cao Wang proposed a plan for large-scale immigration to Lin Jiang. This plan had been prepared for a long time; it was just now ready to be executed.

"This is a report from Cao Wang. The transformation on Jiang Star is nearly complete. Once our immigrants arrive, Jiang Star is expected to be quite similar to Blue Star. Uncle, what do you think? Should we start the execution soon?"

Cao Ying said to Lin Jiang as she pulled up Cao Wang’s report.

"It’s about time. Recently, I received a message from Xia Qingshan; he is starting to push me."

"He hasn’t shown up?"

"No, he keeps it mysterious. It’s a way to stay strong."

"Then let’s begin. The Demon Queen has urged us several times too; she wants a continent from Jiang Star."

"Okay, I will send a notification to Huaxia Official to prepare. This time, there should be a million immigrants."

Lin Jiang said that according to the previous plan, this time it should be a million immigrants. He always hands this kind of thing to the officials because, for Huaxia’s ten billion people, less than a million probably know they exist; most people are unaware of their presence.

"Is the Demon Queen really asking for a continent?"

"Promise her, but don’t give it to her."

"Aren’t you just teasing her?"

"It’s not about tricking her; it’s that a continent cannot be given away for free. You know how much we invested in the Jiang Star plan. Just the Premium Spirit Stones alone are worth tens of millions, not counting everything else. They can’t just demand a continent and expect to receive it without any negotiation."

"That’s true, but the demon race is very poor right now. They probably can’t afford the price."

"That is a matter for the future; let the Demon Queen sell whatever she has to raise money."

"I see you have taken into account the Demon Race’s Demon Emperor."

"Hehe, don’t reveal it."

Lin Jiang let out a cold laugh. He had indeed accounted for the demon race’s Demon Emperor. Last time, Xia Qingshan revealed that there were more than twenty Demon Emperors; now it is possible that there could be thirty, nearly equal to Huaxia.

Such power should not be wasted; it could be useful later as cannon fodder. Plus, this is normal business. The Demon Queen can’t just ask for something, and they must give it. That would be very embarrassing.

"Spiritual energy recovery has been going on for over a thousand years; the demon race has worked hard to gather some power. Tsk tsk, I’m reminded of Ying Continent, hehe."

"Do you really think Ying Continent can escape?"

Lin Jiang said, "Don’t think you can escape from the Ying Continent. Those on Blue Star cannot avoid his schemes; it’s a destined outcome."

The two discussed for a while, and the documents were sent to Jingdu City. The people in Jingdu City take this matter very seriously and immediately gathered relevant experts and scholars for discussion, especially regarding the selection of immigrants, which must be done carefully.

Should they choose good families or criminals? Because this kind of immigration is somewhat like ancient military conscription, which used criminals to strengthen the borders. The five countries of the old agreement were basically formed this way.

There are five million immigrant spots, and some of these spots are special. These special spots will be given to people with unique identities, such as awakened cultivators.

Many awakened cultivators hope to visit Jiang Star, especially those who are Tao Achieving leaders. With long life and plenty of resources, many believe that reaching the Transmigration Stage is quite easy, so they want to travel around.

"Cao Wang, if others can come for fun, you must go to Jiang Star too."

"Ancestor, look at my years of hard work; even if I don’t have achievements, I have put in great effort, right? I’ve worked hard for so long; I deserve a break!"

"Going back and forth for hundreds of years, is that really a long vacation? At most, I can let you create a clone to go."

"A clone can’t last that long either."

"Then let’s create a substitute. Anyway, you can’t go. Also, arrange for the collection of the Space Mother Ship. If this Space Mother Ship goes again, it will be the fifth one. In the future, millions will need to immigrate. We can’t waste like this."

"Ancestor, I personally do not recommend collecting the Space Mother Ship because the energy used to fly it back is not much different from building a new one. It would be better to leave it at Jiang Star since we will use Jiang Star as a base for future exploration."

"Jiang Star must not have this kind of power in my plan."

Lin Jiang said, "In my vision, Jiang Star is merely a resource planet. If its technological strength is similar to Blue Star, there may be a chance to take the initiative."

"Ancestor Lin, I believe we shouldn’t have such a narrow view. Jiang Star can serve as a base for space exploration…"

When Cao Wang heard this, his expression changed immediately, and he began to persuade Lin Jiang. Jiang Star serving as a Space Base for exploration is very beneficial to them. How can they give up for some reason?

Lin Jiang remained silent. He certainly understood the benefits Cao Wang mentioned, but he also had his own considerations. He needed to think carefully about whether to enhance Jiang Star’s technological strength.
