460. Vibrant civilization

Belonging to the InterGalactic Banking Clan, Thorn-Hill's exclusive Munificent-class communications frigate left the hyperspace channel and came to Endor system.

Tang Xiao personally took him on a tour here.

The Endor system gravity well is now very bustling, with thousands of spaceships coming in and out, and the white light generated by hyperspace jumps on the edge of the gravity well one after another.

Cargo spacecraft, mining spacecraft, exploration spacecraft, bounty Hunter spacecraft, immigration spacecraft, passenger spacecraft... Countless people come to this prosperous planet with various purposes and missions. Because here they can find what they want.

With the growth of Cryo-embryo in batches, the population of Dawn Star Planet is now close to 20 million, of which about 1 million are immigrants from other planets and 1.7 million Ewok.

The skyrocketing population did not make Dawn Star Planet appear crowded, because the high Qidian high automation, as well as the excess productivity brought about by tens of millions of imported B-1 robot workers, allowed them to reserve enough food early and build a large number of cities and residential areas in advance.

Now Dawn Star Planet has a beautiful environment, advanced technology, and prosperous economy, attracting more and more people from various galaxies to come here to seek opportunities.

In the desert of the planet, energy division using quantum energy state technology continuously provides huge energy to the entire planet, and transmits electric energy through force field constraints and quantum entanglement theory. This is countless times more efficient than underground cables or the method of transmitting energy through the ionosphere of the atmosphere. The loss during the electric energy transmission process is almost negligible.

Large-scale centralized fully enclosed agricultural zones are built in the fertile plains of the planet. The invention of nano-active plants has greatly shortened the growth cycle of crops, and the genetic composition of these crops can be customized at will. You can eat cola-flavored rice or ice-cream-flavored sweet potatoes, and you can also see wheat with ears of rice hanging all over the branches.

In order to maintain the planet's environment, there are not many smelting, electrolysis, and chemical factories on Dawn Star Planet, mainly processing and manufacturing. Nanoscale parts processing and assembly have become the norm. The factories on Dawn Star Planet can already manufacture various advanced circuit components. Various industrial companies have begun to appear in large numbers and undertake outsourcing services throughout the galaxy.

On the mineral planet Dor Planet, the large-scale mining Star Ring has been built. The huge planet-level mineral cutting device cuts the entire mine on the planet, and uses an anti-gravity elevator to lift it to Star Ring for decomposition and processing. It is estimated that if mined at this rate, Dor Planet will be completely decomposed in 40 years, which will bring a huge amount of mineral resources equivalent to 50 moon masses.

United Mining Group benefited from the income from this planet, which not only provided Fourth Civilization with a huge amount of resources, but also sold some resources directly, earning considerable profits. After Tang Xiao inherited the legacy of Das-Pregas, more than 100 interstellar mines under Damask Holdings Group were also placed under United Mining Group. Chairman Xu Yan set up seven subsidiaries to assist in management.

And in order to protect the huge mining fleet and transport fleet, United Mining Group formed a large number of escort fleets. The battleships that Fourth Civilization Navy had eliminated before could no longer meet their needs, and they also ordered large quantities of spaceships from other giant companies.

For example, Corellia Engineering Company relied on Yuri-Orlov to connect United Mining Group to purchase 20 DP-20 gunboats that were basically unavailable on the black market. These gunboats are 120 meters long and are specially used to deal with small fighters and spaceships. They are basically only supplied to Corellian system defense forces and are rarely exported.

In fact, this is also the reason why Tang Xiao can tolerate Yuri-Orlov - as long as the method is appropriate, the benefits a free arms dealer brings to you are far greater than the losses he causes you.

In addition, United Mining Group has also placed a huge order for more than 100 Grey Horse-class escort carrier, and it was originally planned that these Grey Horse-class escort carrier would need to carry Wraith fighter, but because the production line of Tyran Heavy Industries, which produces Wraith fighter, is currently in short supply, they also placed an order for 700 stealth fighters for Hiigaran Aerospace Group.

These 700 fighter jets are half-moon-shaped and 15.4 meters high. They are equipped with a stealth system and have no intra-atmospheric combat capability. They are compact in size. Although they lack firepower, their strong maneuverability ensures that they are extremely lethal to pirate ships converted from cargo ships.

Fourth Civilization The military did not think highly of this stealth fighter, but Executive Director Kanet-Walters of Hiigaran Aerospace Group took a fancy to the commercial value of this fighter. He applied for the blueprint of this fighter from Fourth Civilization Research Department, and organized his own scientific research team to conduct research and development, and then put it on the market to improve his product line.

This kind of prosperity was also seen by Thornhill. He also understood that the prosperity of Dawn Star Planet was not the kind of bubble prosperity based on demographic dividend or financial market, but a kind of prosperity based on developed technology and a complete and powerful industrial system. It was a real prosperity.

In other words, every bit of power of Dawn Star Planet is real, not a number in the financial market.

Compared with Galactic Republic, those Outer Rim planets who are struggling to survive, and Core Worlds, who is obsessed with life and money, Dawn Star Planet, including everyone among them, lives for a clear purpose.

As for this purpose, Thornhill thought he should be able to guess it.

After traveling for a day, Tang Xiao accompanied San-Ciel back to his Munificent-class communications frigate and said to him, "Now you leave a message saying that you went to a remote planet, then follow me to the rescue capsule, launch it, and let the spacecraft leave on its own."

"What are you talking about?" Thornhill was shocked.

"Yes, that's what it means. Give me your life, and then I can safely show you the legacy left by Teacher Heige." Tang Xiao smiled coldly.

"Teacher Heige is also my mentor. I will not betray him." San Hill's face darkened.

"Then let's get started." Tang Xiao made a gesture of invitation.

Thornhill thought about the brigade for a long time, and Tang Xiao's request was indeed a bit excessive. If he complied, then Tang Xiao would kill him halfway, and InterGalactic Banking Clan would not be able to find the target for revenge.

But... he thought of the oppressive feeling of near-death brought to him by Darth-Malthael before... If Darth-Malthael wanted him to die, he would have died right then! No need to wait until now!
