Start a Subspace

The current government is a government with unlimited responsibility, not the kind of government elected by the people. Therefore, the prices of basic living resources must be stable, the currency should not be indiscriminately issued, and the fiscal deficit should not be too large, which means that sufficient fiscal revenue is needed.

According to the current real estate policy, everyone has a room of 5 square meters, which is a free welfare room without money.

The common people call it "cage house", which means pigeon cage.

In fact, after living for a long time, the pigeon cage is not unacceptable. After all, in the former Earth Refuge, most of the civilians lived in this kind of cage. I've lived here for 10 years, and I'm almost used to it.

But people always crave big rooms, especially those who have the ability and skills for the job.

In order to meet the needs of the majority of people, large rooms of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, and 50 square meters have also been introduced. Those larger than or equal to 15 square meters have independent bathrooms.

But if you live in such a big room, you have to pay property tax. The bigger the house, the more tax you need to pay.

Property tax is a long-term and stable income. In the future, it can even account for 30% of fiscal income, which is actually quite impressive.

In addition, private sales and leases are not allowed.

According to the total amount of tax paid, you can get free old-age housing after retirement.

Those who have made outstanding contributions to civilization are also rewarded with additional large rooms.

As soon as these policies came out, they were widely acclaimed. Even the wise and powerful Daxia Crown Prince only lived in a 50-square-meter room. What else is unacceptable? Which of the previous chaebols was not several hundred square meters? Even a park is chaebol.

Living in a cage of 5 square meters all your life is because you are not capable enough!

……

Just like that, at twelve o'clock at noon, Zhao Weichao from the Second Royal Corps came to the "Yuyan No. 1".

"Report! Everything is normal for Yuyan-1. It is currently 2.5 million kilometers away from Earth!"

"It's hard work, I'll take over." Zhao Weichao saluted the other astronaut.

Since the last time he was successful in suppressing the thugs and won the second-class merit of the group, Zhao Weichao has returned to the army and transformed from a truck driver to a professional soldier.

And received professional space training.

Since human beings have entered the space age ahead of schedule, the demand for ordinary soldiers in Kunlun Mountain society will be greatly reduced, and the number of demobilized soldiers will be controlled at around 150,000.

More importantly, it is the Space Engineers, a new branch of the military that requires skilled use of various space instruments, familiarity with movements in a gravity-free environment, and proficient in the maintenance of various machinery.

In other words, the requirements for soldiers have reached the astronaut level.

Zhao Weichao is a smart person with high education and ingenuity. After three months of practice, he obtained the qualification of the first batch of space engineers.

He turned around and asked the squad leader next to him in a low voice: "Squad leader, hasn't the location of Ark One been thoroughly checked?"

Ark 1, that is, the ship of the elite who defected.

The two sides are currently...not in a state of hostility, but they are definitely not friendly.

"Not yet." The old monitor looked at the starry sky and shook his head, "Without the light of the sun, we can't find each other's position."

"But what is certain is that they must also be waiting for that meteorite to arrive!"

"There will be direct competition between us."

The only laser telescope on Yuyan-1 has been aimed at the 12,000-ton asteroid.

Losing the sun, the starry sky is too dim, and only the diffuse reflection of the laser can barely capture the traces of meteorites.

Once the field of vision is lost, this meteorite will be difficult to find.

Another captain asked next to him, "What's the way to catch asteroids?"

Zhao Weichao said: "The mass of the asteroid is as high as 1.2 trillion tons. Our spacecraft is only less than 10,000 tons, and the difference is 100 million times. It is impossible to directly capture it with brute force."

"So, we have two plans here. The first plan is to synchronize the speed of the spacecraft with the meteorite and directly land on the meteorite. Then, it is equivalent to stationing on the meteorite and slowly exploit the resources in it."

"Wherever the meteorite flies, we will follow it. Even if it flies out of the solar system, it doesn't matter."

"The second plan is to let His Highness open a super-large space door and send the meteorite directly into the subspace, and then we will slowly find a way."

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, he was amazed: "The second plan is good, but the bigger the space door, the more the ability of His Highness is needed..."

"He... isn't he going to reach the limit?"

"Maybe it's a little bit worse..."

Speaking of Zhang Ran's ability to create things, everyone was excited, but also a little annoyed.

Actually, everyone doesn't want to rely too much on His Highness's abilities.

Because every time Zhang Ran created a creation in the void, he would show a very painful expression, as if he had cancer, which made onlookers tremble with fear, for fear that Zhang Ran would suddenly die suddenly.

His Highness is the ballast stone that maintains the stability of the Kunlun Mountains. In the event of a sudden death, there will inevitably be chaos among the people, and no one wants to go back to the past.

but……

It's so delicious!

"Alas, the last time, the last time. With that meteorite, we can do a lot."

Suddenly a soldier screamed, as if thinking of something: "Wait, that's not right, everyone!"

"The dignitaries of Ark-1 can only choose the first option. They don't have a warp space, and they must land on the meteorite mining in person."

"We have to include it in the subspace on our side..."

Zhao Weichao's mood is also tense~www.wuxiahere.com~ This is the fundamental contradiction between the two sides. There is only one meteorite, and everyone wants it!

Talking about "putting aside disputes for joint development" is simply nonsense!

Matter is limited, 1.2 trillion tons sounds like a lot, but maybe it will be the only material that can be captured in the next hundred years, one thousand years!

Who doesn't want to be alone?

The attacking party has an absolute advantage, and a normal nuclear bomb can blow up the opponent's spaceship.

No matter how an agreement is signed or a treaty is signed, it is impossible to reduce this risk.

There is no third-party witness here at all!

And the Yuyan spaceship is the only medium between the subspace and the real universe. If Yuyan is smashed, everyone will be trapped in the subspace and will not be able to come out.

Without a real medium, Zhang Ran couldn't open the subspace for nothing.

Zhao Weichao said quickly, "It's alright, as long as we don't take the initiative to expose it, they won't be able to find us either."

"The most important thing now is to observe."

"The earth should disappear soon, and there will be a few seconds of vacuum decay, which will bring strong light."

……

As time passed bit by bit, Zhang Ran brought Zero and a few cosmologists to the cabin of Yuyan No. 1.

"Your Highness!" Several soldiers hurriedly saluted.

"Hello." Zhang Ran replied with a salute, "Has the other party's spaceship not been found yet?"

"Not yet, but theoretically it won't be too far away from our spacecraft, and they can't miss the meteorite a month later. It's very likely that a conflict will break out between us."

Zhang Ran was silent, looking at the starry sky in the distance.
