Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 11

Chapter 11, Black Box Maker

Helping the Waste Cave Society to build production capacity was originally planned by Gu Hang.

Gu Hang looked down on the mineral output of the Waste Cave Society. These people had a hard time supporting themselves, so where was the surplus value?

Only by developing them could Gu Hang’s goal be achieved.

And Gu Hang’s goal was not just to make these people pay taxes. He wanted to build the entire planet more prosperous. He needed more troops, more weapons and equipment, and more material bases…

The Waste Cave Society was a starting point, but also an important model room. If it succeeded, he also planned to replicate similar models.

But first of all, this model room had to be built well.

Originally, his plan was to rely on the “Quinte” starship floating in the sky.

When Gu Hang set out from the capital of the star region and came to the Angry Owl Star to serve as the governor, he certainly did not take office alone. He is one of the contemporary core members of the Gu family, and the Gu family is an old political family in the Tianma star region.

A watch-class strike cruiser belonging to the Imperial Navy of the Pegasus Star Region, the ‘Quinet’, carried him from the capital of the star region.

After completing the task of escorting the governor, the ‘Quinet’ did not leave. It will perform a two-year mission in the orbit of the Wrathful Owl Star. It will obey the orders of the governor and provide the strongest backing for the governor to revive the entire planet.

Only Gu Hang has this treatment. The previous governors were all sent away by a frigate.

In theory, with the ‘Quinet’ floating in orbit, Gu Hang can walk sideways on the Wrathful Owl Star. There is nothing on the wasteland that can threaten the ‘Quinet’. On the contrary, the ‘Quinet’ can carry out terrible orbital bombardment at any location on the surface of the planet.

At the same time, the ‘Quinet’ can also bring great help to Gu Hang in other aspects.

This eleven-kilometer-long giant star ship is equipped with a crew of more than 100,000 people. Among them are mechanical servants, slaves, combatants, technicians, elite marines, mechanics, psychics…

all kinds of people, with different functions.

In a sense, such a huge ship is like a city floating in the sky.

The crew mainly relies on the transfer and replenishment from various planets, but because the space voyage is too long, there are few opportunities to leave. Many crew members are simply the offspring of the crew members on the starship. They are likely to be born and die on the starship and never leave.

This huge sky city can provide Gu Hang with a lot of things. The 3,000 slaves, 300 mechanical servant soldiers, and 30 marines he started with were brought down from the starship.

He originally planned to get the needs of the construction of the Waste Cave Society from the sky.

The Quintet can provide manpower and weapons and equipment. Gu Hang said that he would select 100 soldiers from the Waste Cave Society and arm them, which was not nonsense. He was going to get the bullets from the starship.

However, some of the production equipment in his plan was not easy to get. He originally planned to get it from Renaissance City. After all, he was the governor of the planet and the head of the “Alliance” of the Wrathful Star. Even if he did not have enough control over the alliance, there was always a way to get some benefits.

But now it seems that it is no longer necessary.

The things given by the system’s [Technology] function are much more powerful than getting some benefits.

Without saying a word, he called Patel over and told him about the production line, which excited the leader of the Waste Cave Society.

After sending Patel away, Gu Hang left the Waste Cave Society and went to the periphery.

His soldiers were also stationed outside. The people of the Waste Cave Society had come out one after another and began to build their ground camps under the leadership of a man named Old Butch. Patel began to select the 100 soldiers of the Waste Cave Society who were about to be trained, and soon decided on the candidates.

To be honest, Gu Hang was not very satisfied with the people of the Waste Cave Society as the source of soldiers. They were all born from hard labor, but they were malnourished and it was difficult for them to develop strong and excellent physical fitness. Not only do they look a little thin, but their bodies also have many hidden injuries due to long-term hard work.

Although they have the spirit of hard work, they are still not very good soldiers.

But he has no choice now.

The three thousand slaves brought down from the starship in the temporary camp are not much better.

Next, Gu Hang left a hundred mecha soldiers, and took the rest of the people, as well as the one hundred newly recruited young men from Feidong Society, to the temporary camp.

He did not intend to wait for Yan Fangxu, who was going to clear out the remnants of the “Prisoners of the Dead”, to come back, because nothing would happen to that guy. After he completes his mission, he will leave behind a team of elite Marines to command the mecha soldiers who stayed in Feidong Society.

Those brainless mecha soldiers have no ability to fight independently.

…

After a few hours, Gu Hang returned to the temporary camp.

The entire camp still looked like a large construction site in full swing. After initially leveling the land and using local materials to build simple walls and simple buildings, most of the slaves were busy with one thing: building a landing pad.

The landing pad is for starships – of course, it is not for the starship to land as a whole, but to facilitate the transport planes flying down from the starship to dock with the ground.

This is not a particularly efficient way of transportation. On some planets with better conditions, space elevators and orbital star ports are the main force for interstellar transportation.

However, it is still a problem of conditions. Where can Gu Hang afford to build space elevators and star ports now? He can only rely on the spacecraft carried by the starship to carry out the transportation work between the ground and space.

This requires a landing pad, or even an airport, to improve efficiency.

The amount of work to be completed is not small, but there is no need to complete it all at once. It is enough to initially make something that can be used.

After checking the progress of the project, Gu Hang found an unmanned open space outside the camp and materialized two black box manufacturing machines.

The two manufacturing machines are really “black boxes”.

The two square black boxes are made of black, unknown materials.

One is big and the other is small, like two houses. There are two “doors” in front and back, one for feeding and the other for outputting products.

Gu Hang scratched his head, a little dumbfounded.

The system didn’t say that the black box is so big.

How to move it?

Only engineering machines can be used. It’s too exaggerated to use manpower alone.

But on second thought, Gu Hang felt that he didn’t have to transport these two things to Feidong Society. If the finished black box is to be used, ore can be imported from Feidong Society-although this is a bit contrary to his promise to Patel to build a production line for Feidong Society.

But in fact, there is no conflict. The finished black box is definitely used to produce the most advanced alloy plastic steel materials, and the output will not be large.

As for the production line of Feidong Society, it depends on the various parts produced by the mother machine black box, which are transported to Feidong Society, assembled there, and built into an alloy smelting plant.

It is conceivable that with the subsequent continuous development of the two camps, the transportation exchanges between them will be very frequent. Road construction is of course necessary, but transportation equipment is also very important.

He didn’t want his subordinates to push carts and carts for eight hours each time to go back and forth.

Vehicles, engineering equipment, these things are very necessary.

He looked up to the sky. It seems that he

still has to fleece the “Quinte”, including the 100 sets of weapons and equipment promised to the Waste Cave Society.

However, when Gu Hang thought about dealing with that woman, he felt a little annoyed.

………………

Although there are still few words, I hope that all gentlemen will try not to support the book. The new book period really needs your support!

If you can recommend it to me, it would be even better!

I have always wanted to write a book with a hammer setting. I will try my best to write this one. I hope to get good results and live up to everyone!

Thank you, Hongbu!
