Chapter 97 The Arrival of God
"Do you have anything else to explain in the end?"
"The trade between galaxies is a huge profit, not a simple profit, but a huge profit that you can't imagine." Li said, "But within the empire, most of the classic routes are controlled by trading families and large companies. The situation in the Far East is slightly better, but there are still similar large companies. Don't conflict with these people. The Far East is very big, and we are in an empty area. The purpose of your first trip is to open up new routes, and secondly, to find out the cargo market of the galaxies around the empire, and you are not in a hurry to make money.
"I see."
After dinner, Countess Bartoli left in a hurry. She was looking forward to the beautiful night after dinner, but after she saw the schedule provided by Li for her, she was no longer in the mood to have fun.
Time is too tight. Li hopes that she can leave Hong Kong within a month, and she can see from this schedule that Li's embarrassment. If he hadn't been too short of money, this guy would not have rushed to make money by himself.
So she decided to do better. In Countess Bartoli's own schedule, she set the departure time within two weeks. There is a saying that time is money, especially for such a profiteering industry as cosmic trade, every minute and every second of delay is a shameful waste.
This is also the place where Li likes Countess Bartoli. This beautiful young woman enjoys pleasure and has fun, but she pays more attention to her work and trust from Li. Countess Bartoli is a smart person. She knows that in addition to **'s playmate, what she should do is to show her true value like Li. To put it vulgarly, as long as it is a woman, there will be a hole between her legs. What Countess Bartoli can do in ** can also be done by other women, and what really makes Bartoli indispensable is her success in her career.
After the female count left, Li held several internal meetings to determine the administrative direction of Zhiyuanxing. Then he arranged for Jacob, the curator of the think tank, to take over the training of new recruits, and Bell, the mechanical priest of the regiment, was still devoted to many projects.
After arranging everything, Li went to the spaceport, where the Silver Wing was quietly moored in the berth waiting for his arrival.
In the bridge, he met Martin Luther, the pastor of the regiment who had been waiting for a long time.
"Is everything ready?"
"It's just waiting for you to come."
"Then let's go to the Bojiang Galaxy."
The silver ship shook slightly, and then slowly left the port. The ship slowly accelerated along the channel and soon disappeared into the dark universe.

Among the three galaxies owned by Li, the winter solstice galaxy is needless to mention that almost no one cares about this galaxy. All the planets in the winter solstice galaxy are dead, which are completely unsuitable for human survival. Another galaxy that is rarely mentioned, the Bojiang Galaxy is more special, which can be said to be a forgotten place.
There is no special output in the Bojiang Galaxy, and there is no coveted precious species. The only thing worth mentioning is that there are human beings living on three planets in this galaxy.
In the eyes of most imperial officials, it is only human survival, which is not worth mentioning.
The three planets are named Bojiang No. 4, Bojiang No. 6 and Bojiang No. 8. From the naming, we can see the official attitude towards this. They don't even want to spend more time thinking about a good name, so they just use numbers.
The reason is that the galaxies in which the three planets are located are not only remote, but also unable to bring income to the empire. Human beings on these three planets live in the feudal world and the wild world respectively.
In the golden age, the footsteps of brave human colonists spread throughout the Milky Way, but when the subspace storm that swept the whole Milky Way blew, all routes were cut off, all navigation between galaxies was forced to stop, and those new colonies and home ports were cut off.
At first, the colonists looked forward to the cessation of the storm, but this subspace storm blew for many years, and several generations died one after another. And because they usually relied too much on stc, with the rise of the subspace storm, stc was destroyed, and some alien colonies were annihilated, and the life of the colonies was for a moment. It has returned to the Stone Age.
Li imagined this scene and felt like living on the earth in the 21st century. One day you woke up and suddenly found that the oil was gone.
The industrial civilization built on oil will collapse in an instant.
This is the case with the colony. The modern life of the colonists depends on two channels, one is the support from the home port, and the other is made by stc itself. When the storm blows, these two channels are closed. With the passage of time, the descendants of the colonists can only gradually slide into the abyss of ignorance.
The common practice of the empire for these people who still live in the wild world or in the Middle Ages is unknown. The official statement is that the empire will not interfere with the lives of these people to maintain their original ecology. Of course, the real reason is that it is a long and thankless process if it helps them enter the space age. Whether it is an empire or a company, it is difficult to see benefits in it, so naturally no one will take care of these.
Only the church maintains its influence on this kind of world. The enthusiasm for the divine emperor makes the church preach their teachings anywhere in the universe. There are often devout preachers who will take the initiative to preach the teachings of the divine emperor in those wild worlds. They are not for money or for profit, but just for Let more people have the right faith. So even in a barbarian world that still uses a stone axe, you may meet the followers of the emperor.
Li is lucky. In the three weeks of the Bojiang Galaxy, two planets have been completely under the belief of the divine emperor. Hundreds of years ago, there were missionaries who spread the glory of the divine emperor here.
"So all the people in the Holy See are our people?"
Pastor Martin replied, "No, that's not the case. Only the highest level of the local church, a few cardinals and popes, know the truth of the world. Other church members are also ordinary indigenous people. They don't even know whether the land under their feet is round or square."
"Didn't our church tell them?"
"There is no need! Whether the earth under their feet is round or square, whether the starry sky is clear and disappearing, it is meaningless to them. As long as their faith is correct and they do not go the wrong way, it is enough. The church only focuses on the spirit and soul of human beings. For them, ignorance is also a kind of happiness. Moreover, the development of science and technology and knowledge is a step-by-step process. If it is not necessary, it is better not to interfere too much.
"That's right. It suddenly occurred to me that if, I mean, if we flew over their heads with warships, what would these indigenous people think?"
Martin shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's a good explanation. In fact, we don't need to explain it at all. They can always find a reasonable explanation by themselves. Are you going to do this?"
"No, no, although it's interesting to scare those indigenous people, I'm not going to do it. If you can, it's better not to make too much noise. Let's go quietly and do things silently. Of course, the main reason for not doing so is that it is very fuel-consuming for warships to enter the atmosphere, and the fuel itself is also very expensive.
"I understand what you mean. After arriving at the galaxy, I will take the initiative to contact the priest over there, and they will prepare for us."
"This should be enough. We can get enough intelligence resources in the place, and then it's up to us."
"Is that so?" Pastor Martin showed his confused magic. He said, "With all due respect, I want to ask, why did you lead us here?"
"Look at your territory," Li shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Of course, this is just by the way. I'm here to recruit new recruits."
"If adults want to absorb new blood for the Knights Templar, then we should not be so hasty."
"Oh? What do you think?
"I personally think that a framework and a system should be built, so that these planets will continue to deliver new blood to us."
Li nodded and agreed, "That's right, but if you want to achieve this goal, you rely more on the behavior of the indigenous people below. We know little about those people, so I decided to go down and have a look first. Shall we go together?"
"The glory is coming."

When the words of psionic sounded in George III's mind, he knelt in front of the statue excitedly. He thought that his prayers had been answered, and he had heard the words of the Emperor.
This behavior and misunderstanding made the person who talked to him very angry. It took a long time for the two to resume their rational conversation, and George III figured out the origin of the other party.
It is not difficult to guess that the first Pope George had made corresponding arrangements before leaving the world. These people are the messengers of the emperor from the starry sky and the people from the same world as Pope George I.
They are people from outside the sky and live in the city of the sky. What kind of city is that? Is the earth paved with white clouds? Is the gate made of gold? George III's mind was full of all kinds of magnificent imaginations. He dreamed of white clouds. The golden door appeared, the door opened, and the angels flew out of it.
The next morning, the thirty-eight bells of the divine city of Van Segang rang. This was an unprecedented prosperity. The knights of the Holy Shield Knights put on kind armor and rode on a white horse to a hill outside Van Segang with George III and a group of cardinals. According to the teaching The emperor said that the angel will come here.
What is an angel like?
Although the knights have been strictly trained, they can't help talking about it at this moment. Even the Pope can't stand the excitement in their hearts.
It is said to be a beautiful woman with white wings behind her.
No, no, they are bearded uncles, holding a flame sword to sweep the evil in the world.
Wrong, wrong, they have long beards, wide sleeves, holding a seven-star sword, and coming on the white crane.
What kind of myth is this? Why have you never heard of it?
It's really ignorant. This is an oriental myth. After saying that, the man added proudly that a yellow-skinned boy surnamed Mu told me that it could not be faked.
