Forty Millenniums of Cultivation Chapter 2236: Chiyun Elegy!
Empire of True Humanity, Xinguang Complex, Third War Zone, West Mist Sector edge, no atmosphere, extremely harsh environment No. 223 Resources Planet.
West Mist Sector is a small world with a diameter of 3 billion kilometers. The stars here are still in the young age of birth, so that the seven planets surrounding the star are all affected by the dramatic changes of gravity, and they cannot form a dense atmosphere at all. , There is no habitable planet.
The ever-changing gravity and crustal movement, as well as the innumerable planet being torn apart, the exchange of materials from various meteorite impacts, and several satellites of West Mist Sector are rich in rare metals and rare crystal.
West Mist Sector is the most remote part of Third War Zone. No. 223 Resources Planet is West Mist Sector the most remote one planet.
This place is rich in a precious "Fused Nickel Crystal mineral vein", refined into high-explosive shells, which can greatly enhance the destruction ability of the shells and even increase the destruction radius by more than 100%.
So, after Empire recaptured West Mist Sector from Saint League, it also sent a small fleet, stationed on Resources Planet No. 223.
The mission of this fleet is not holding on to the No. 223 Resources Planet Expedition Army base camp in the counterattack that Saint League may launch. They never thought they could do this.
They are just "engineers" responsible for the difficult cleaning and reconstruction of the mining base destroyed by Saint League in the extremely harsh environment of Desolate World.
This is the mission of Empire Expedition Army Third War Zone Ninth Fleet, also known as "Scarlet Cloud Fleet".
Scarlet Cloud Fleet is a miscellaneous brand army, local armed forces, or in the scornful tone of the Imperial Capital dignitaries and doormen, "disorganized mob made up by a bunch of countrymen" is the epitome of thousands of miscellaneous brand troops.
Scarlet Cloud Fleet comes from Scarlet Cloud Sector. It was a world that was not conquered by Empire until five hundred years ago, at the end of "Empire Great Development Era", or better said, "Join Empire".
Because at that time, facing the mighty army of Empire from the sky, the ruler of Scarlet Cloud Sector chose to surrender wisely, plus Scarlet Cloud Sector itself is a land of poor mountains and bad water and extremely poor resources, in addition to the hungry billions of people In addition, there is nothing valuable, so Empire very generously grants Scarlet Cloud Sector a considerable degree of autonomy, as long as Scarlet Cloud Sector regularly pays taxes and military sources, and when Empire needs, follow the orders of Your Majesty The Sovereign Emperor and Elder's Council and send troops to attack with Empire The enemy can.
Even if it is so "generous" and "benevolent", for the people of Scarlet Cloud Sector and even Immortal Cultivator, the past five hundred years have been extremely difficult.
The tax burden of Empire's is more than one day. In addition to the tax amount directly paid to Imperial Court, Four Great Emperor Selecting Marquis Families is also constantly inventing its name and knocking bones in the form of various "expenses" and "special taxes".
And dozens of extremely developed Industrial World from the center of Star Ocean, a large number of continuously produced Magical Artifact and industrial manufactured products on the assembly line, poured into Scarlet Cloud Sector like a tide, completely destroying the original rough and backward, but relatively independent Scarlet Cloud Sector Industrial System, which tightly binds Scarlet Cloud Sector to the most downstream of the chain of power and gate valve interests, is reduced to an insignificant component on the assembly line.
Five hundred years ago, even though technology was relatively backward, Scarlet Cloud Sector could still refine Crystal Armor, armed Battle Shuttle and even Starship in large quantities, and even refine one or two of the simplest Star Ocean jump Magical Artifact units.
However, today, on the surface, the various Magical Artifacts used by the Chiyun people are more exquisite, gorgeous and powerful, but there is no more Crystal Armor is Scarlet Cloud Sector's own brand. All Scarlet Cloud Sector Crystal Armor factories are all owned by Four Great Emperor Selecting Marquis Families. The acquisition of Sect smashed all the "outdated" pipelines and replaced them with new pipelines for the rich and generous and free donations of dignitaries and doormen.
Naturally, the core of these Magical Artifact pipelines, technology, is all in the hands of the powerful people in the center of Star Ocean, and will never be known by the Chiyun people.
What ’s more, these Magical Artifact factories can no longer produce a full set of Crystal Armor, only 5% of the components on Crystal Armor can be refined, and the remaining 95% must be shipped by the Star Ocean central and assembled on the spot.
As a result, Scarlet Cloud Sector's autonomous industry System completely collapsed, losing all bargaining power, and was choked by the dignitaries and gates of the Star Ocean central government to become the Magical Artifact dumping place and resource provider of the other party.
More sadly, except for manpower, Scarlet Cloud Sector does not have any abundant reserves, enough to supply the entire Empire's resource.
The labor prices here have been suppressed to an appalling level. The old men from Star Ocean said that it is because of the cheap manpower of Scarlet Cloud Sector and the honest work of the workers that the Magical Artifact factory is set here, otherwise the old men You can pat your **** and leave, go to another Greater Thousand Worlds to open a factory, and even use Spiritual Energy Puppet to replace all Human Race workers.
They are here to feed the workers, for the sake of their fellow Empire, to do good deeds!
When these words were said in a big way, these arrogant masters forgot to forget that it was in a century-old dumping that all kinds of shameless tactics crushed the major Sect and Magical Artifact of the local Scarlet Cloud Sector The factory only left hundreds of millions of workers without food and clothing and nowhere to go.
It ’s just that the lords did n’t say these words with empty mouths, but they said these words while sitting on the bridge of the cruiser heavy-type. Even when they landed on the ground, there was a whole team of Crystal Armor around to "guard the factory" "How about Scarlet Cloud Sector workers?
A strong and strong Chiyun worker worked hard for a year in the Magical Artifact factory of Four Great Emperor Selecting Marquis Families, so that hematemesis and even the lung lobes shrank, and he could not support his family. He had to send his wife and daughter to the ocean Go to the Star Ocean central dignitaries and the entertainment clubs opened by the gate valve to "work" and use humiliating and smelly money to support families such as human tragedies, Scarlet Cloud Sector in the past hundreds of years, abound.
Star Ocean central dignitaries and gatekeepers even extended their tentacles to the agricultural field of Scarlet Cloud Sector, using various secret skill modulations, genetically modified "Spirit Rice, Spirit Wheat" and exotic crops to replace Scarlet Cloud Sector's native rice and wheat grains.
Because these "Spirit Rice, Spirit Wheat" do have extremely high output, excellent taste, and are rich in various nutrients and calories, at the beginning, the food Group controlled by Four Great Emperor Selecting Marquis Families also gave high subsidies to allow those factories to work hard. Workers earning meagre wages can only afford the food they provide.
So, these foreign grains Group expanded very rapidly in Scarlet Cloud Sector. Within a hundred years, they acquired the small and medium grain Group of Scarlet Cloud Sector itself, and bought large areas of land from farmers just like they did for Scarlet Cloud Sector a hundred years ago. Magical Artifact Industrial System did just that.
Scarlet Cloud Sector is called "self-government", but after all, it is a part of Empire's, there is no way to formulate independent laws to block the siege of outsiders, only to watch these foreign food Group dominate the king.
The vast majority of land and seed sources are in the hands of foreign food Group. These guys finally see the poor, they swing down with the sword of the law, and use secret skill to change the genes of Spirit Rice and Spirit Wheat, so that all seeds can only Once harvested, it cannot be planted again.
In other words, Scarlet Cloud Sector has lost all its own crop seeds. If it needs to be sown, only energy sources will continue to purchase Group.
Even though the Chiyun people wanted to secretly test and cultivate their own excellent seeds, they were surprised to find that the former Group had given them to them, allowing them to grow on a large scale, and to recycle their fruits at high prices. "It has the effect of greatly changing the composition of the soil!
Contaminated by these alien cash crops for 100 years, the most fertile soil of Scarlet Cloud Sector is only suitable for planting seeds of foreign food Group, and other seeds are sown, even if they can extract buds, they will only die to a large extent.
In the beginning, outsiders spent a high price to buy the sour and astringent "cash crop fruits" from them. What did the Star Ocean central rich people like to taste this flavor most? Laugh, the rich man in the middle of Star Ocean is really strange.
To this day, Chiyun people wake up like dreams, and finally know what the taste of this "bitter fruit" is.
The rich people in the center of Star Ocean taste it, not the juice of this fruit, but the taste of their blood.
This awakening really came too late.
Scarlet Cloud Sector from industry to agriculture, to a full set of cultivation System, all invaded and destroyed by outsiders in the center of Star Ocean, the whole fell into the hands of others.
Even though Scarlet Cloud Sector ’s World Lord still has nominal “autonomy”, what is the point?
This is even more not good than direct aggression.
Because after the direct aggression, it is necessary to establish Government , which has the obligation to govern and guarantee the local people.
But now, everything is an economic act, and private Sect has come forward to do it. They have devoured all the benefits, and all the "obligations" are still in the autonomous Government of Scarlet Cloud Sector, on the heads of the dumbfounded World Lord.
The life and death of the Chiyun people, regardless of the affairs of the Star Ocean central government, still care about the local World Lord "cruelty, squeezing too much", at most, when it is impossible to pass, Four Great Emperor Selecting Marquis Families leaks some residue from the teeth between the cold to serve as relief ,that is it.
The ordinary people of Scarlet Cloud Sector have lived this kind of days when they are unable to eat, and are struggling to survive.
And Scarlet Cloud Sector's Immortal Cultivator is not much better than ordinary people, even more not good.
In the past, when owning the System with independent industry and agriculture, various fields of Scarlet Cloud Sector needed a lot of Immortal Cultivator to support it. Immortal Cultivator has a very high status and great interests. It is a terrible bully.
But now, the rolling waves of foreign capital and technology are surging, and the first thing to overwhelm is the dignity and dreams of the local Immortal Cultivator.
His own Sect was crushed by foreign tycoons, and he still had to swallow his voice to work for the foreign tycoons, but even if he devoted himself to his whole life, and even let his children and grandchildren live their lives for the foreign tycoons, they would still be the country's gangsters Even a dog in a backcountry can never enter the core management of these giants. The management will always be airborne from the Star Ocean central!
This is the fate of Scarlet Cloud Immortal Cultivator for 500 years.
