Chapter 191 Punisher
Crisis 33 years.
Ganymede, the pioneer base.
Unlike the super-large scale of the Enlightenment Base on Callisto, the pioneer base built later was much smaller in scale.
Moreover, the livestock breeding, grain planting, and various ground supply factories at the Qiming base are not available here.
The most interesting thing is that at the pioneer base, except for a few managers and security personnel who are from Daxia, most of the people here are mining workers from South Australia.
The most surprising thing is that the person in charge of this base is not a Daxia person, but the former president of South Australia, Mohan.
In the command room, Mohan repeatedly tossed the pure gold ball in his hand tirelessly, his face full of confusion.
In another 7 years, after his ten-year term here is up, he will be able to enter the hibernation chamber provided by Xinghai, where he will spend 100 years.
He didn't know what the situation would be like in 100 years, but it definitely couldn't be worse than it is now.
Who could have thought that the damn Daxia, as if out of a malicious desire, after releasing the news of the discovery of a huge amount of gold mines, did not mine it, but continued to invest all its mining efforts into that damn green metal that it hated.
"Director Mo, something bad has happened!"
"Ding" the golden ball was not caught, and was affected by the screams of the visitor, falling on the metal floor and rolling away.
The person who came was still the deputy from before, and he was still following him.
Mohan sighed. The other party was also old now. He no longer had the energy to show off in front of him.
"What is it? Don't worry, tell me slowly."
The deputy held onto the metal door frame and took a few deep breaths. He said urgently, "Those damn workers have secretly formed a workers' rights association, threatening that their wages must be doubled, that they must work no more than five hours a day, and that they must rest four days a week, otherwise they will go on strike."
Hearing this, Mohan was shocked at first, then puzzled, and then burst into laughter.
What is supposed to come will come.
These damn idiots, are they still treating the days like they did when Daxia needed help from South Australia and they could just raise prices and reap the benefits?
At this moment, he couldn't help but recall a famous saying from somewhere.
After all, we can't let these people eat too much.
On this point, he had previously suggested that Xinghai should not offer too high a salary, but unfortunately Xinghai did not appreciate it.
Mohan smiled and picked up the phone.
He also wanted to see what kind of surprised expression Chief Jin would have when he heard the news.
Unfortunately, it is impossible for the other party to video call him.
It doesn’t matter, it’s good to piss her off.
The call was quickly connected. Mohan did not hesitate and directly explained the situation here. Then he suppressed his smile and waited for the sudden silence on the other end of the phone.
Jin Qiaoying didn't hang up the phone. She didn't mind that Mohan was on the communication channel and said directly: "A-Dai, connect to Colonel Li Jian."
Soon, Li Jian's deep voice was heard over the communication line.
"I'm Li Jian, hello, Chief Jin."
Jin Qiaoying's tone was still cold, and she said without any pause, "The miners at the Pioneer Base are becoming unstable. I will immediately send the Swift to Ganymede. Send someone to maintain order at the scene and escort these people directly back to Blue Star South Australia."
"Yes, I will ensure that the order is completed."
Li Jian didn't even ask the reason and then hung up the phone.
Mohan was also shocked by this scene and stopped smiling. He suddenly became a little flustered.
Is this woman so cruel?
Such a large-scale investment, and she just stopped the construction? Did she really dare to do that?
"Mohan, compile a list of all the workers who have participated in the Workers' Rights Association. Forget it, Ah Dai, you do the count, and then communicate with Colonel Li to escort all of these people back to the Blue Star South Australia without leaving a single one, and confiscate all their property. At the same time, inform them that Xinghai and Daxia will blacklist them and their three generations of direct relatives, and will never hire them, and will never allow them to enter Daxia, and will never allow them to become Daxia citizens."
"No, no, you can't do this, you will suffer huge losses, leave it to me, I will handle it.
You may not understand, but to use the Daxia language, they are now asking for a sky-high price, and we can pay them back right away.
According to my estimation, we only need to give them a slight increase in salary on the original basis to calm down this incident. "
Mohan's reaction was very urgent, as these were related to the assessment during his term of office. If he failed the assessment, he might not be able to get a place to enter the hibernation chamber after his term of office expires.
But Jin Qiaoying's next words made him silent.
"I know that similar incidents have often occurred in the Austronesian nation. This time the responsibility lies with me. You can just do as I say. I will immediately arrange for other miners to go to Ganymede to take over their work. It will not affect your term assessment."
"But."
"No buts. Daxia is not you. There is no room for bargaining on matters of principle. You should know that the salary offered by Xinghai is currently the highest salary level among all the same industries. So let's leave it at that."
Jin Qiaoying stopped Mohan from saying but and hung up the phone.
Both Jin Qiaoying in the Daxia office and Mohan in the Pioneer Base fell into a long silence after hanging up the phone.
It is obvious that Jin Qiaoying overestimated human nature.
And Mohan underestimated the so-called principles of the Daxia people.
Firewood Hub Space Force Branch.
Under Li Jian's command, an ultra-large warship with an astonishing size of 2000 meters long, 100 meters wide and 1200 meters high slowly sailed out of the port.
Designed and manufactured by the Xinghai Design Bureau, it is equipped with a high-speed electromagnetic railgun, a cockpit system with a nanobuffer, and various technologies produced by various Xinghai laboratories. It is a super battleship verification ship with the entire hull built of a huge amount of silver-like supermetal.
The Punisher.
On it, there were 2000 fully armed Daxia space soldiers.
At the same time, a formation of 20 Dragon B-type aircraft also left the port at the same time.
In Li Jian’s plan, this is a standard battleship combat team.
This battleship was named "Punisher", implying that in the event of a possible extraterrestrial civilization crisis in the future, the alien spaceship that Daxia had frantically prepared for for 49 years would be punished.
However, at present, this battleship has not yet been built and deployed on a large scale.
There is still enough time. At Fan Ren's request, Li Jian must familiarize himself with the use and combat methods of this type of warship as soon as possible, and find out the possible defects.
In the near future, they will continue to apply other technologies to this spacecraft. Only then will this battleship be truly equipped on a large scale for the space force.
In the command module of the Punisher, Li Jian and several members of the command center were now lying in a gray, viscous nanobuffer.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: After all, it is much worse than the buffer solution on the Conqueror.
At least the buffer on top doesn't feel sticky and is transparent.
"Keep formation, target Ganymede, move out!"
As his order was given, a huge plasma tail flame suddenly erupted from the tail of the Punisher.
The entire fleet's thrust was increased to the maximum at this moment, approaching the once unimaginable gravity threshold of 350G.
After 7 minutes, the fleet stopped accelerating.
At this time, the speed of the entire fleet had reached 1500 kilometers per second.
