spnOn the streets of Hanking, it is dawn every day.

Xu Hong got up early today. It was March in Hanking and the weather was still cold. He was riding his racing Jiangnan bicycle through the streets of Hanking. It was quite interesting.

"You should be able to buy purple dreamflower today."

The street ahead is not too crowded, because Hanking City has started an urban reconstruction project.

50% of the buses were canceled and replaced by public flyways planned from the sky.[

Above Xu Hong's head, more than 40 meters away, was a public flying lane. At this time, a public flying car was driving into the station 10 meters above the ground.

The station is built on the back of a building, like an extra platform, it is very large.

Passengers can reach the station in the shortest time through a powerful 50-person high-speed elevator, and then board the train in an orderly manner.

From entering the station and waiting for the train to arrive, to the moment the public train starts driving to the next station, the whole process is very short and faster than a bus.

“It’s so convenient to fly!”

While waiting for the traffic lights to turn green, Xu Hong watched the huge public flying car take off from the 10-meter platform, then drive into the 40-meter-high sky lane and fly away quickly. It felt so comfortable.

In front of you, Hanking is lined with hundreds of meters high buildings, and flying cars are no longer a rare means of transportation.

There are two most common types of flying cars, public flying cars and private flying cars.

At present, the production of flying cars is still relatively limited. Public flying cars mainly exist as means of transportation and freight transportation, while private flying cars are purely private goods.

However, due to limited production, private flying cars cannot be purchased with money, and personal credit points must be deducted.

Credit points are a new virtual currency that was reformed from the Empire Points once issued by the Empire.

Unlike publicly issued currencies, credit points, as an evolutionary product of points, are approved and issued by the Imperial Credit Administration, a subsidiary agency of the Imperial Supreme Power Council.

Many points from the early years, such as military merit points, social points, education points, scientific research points, etc. Points with various names were converted into credit points.

People call this kind of credit points credit coins.

Credit points can be used directly as currency. The empire has an official price that floats 24 hours a day. Credit points cannot be traded between private parties, but they can be repurchased by the empire.

In addition to being directly converted into common currency, credit points can also be used to enjoy preferential treatment when purchasing some scarce items.

For example, flying cars. At present, the production of flying cars produced by two companies, Shusheng Company and Imperial Speeding Car Company, is still limited. They must not only meet the public and military needs of the government and the military, but also put some products into social circulation channels.

Production is not enough.

Therefore, purchasing with credit points and deducting part of the payment with credit points have become the purchase threshold.

As a result, a strange phenomenon emerged. Many rich people could not buy a flying car, but some teachers, scholars, even veterans, or even farmers, happily bought one after checking the price.

Bind a personal speed car.[

This is where credit points come into play.

This is not only the case with speeding cars, but also in other aspects. For some very advanced and scarce products, the threshold is set by credit points.

More and more people are discovering that in the empire, having money does not necessarily mean you will live a better life than others. It will not work if you do not make a unique contribution to the empire.

A strange phenomenon has emerged. Many businessmen even voluntarily donate to obtain credits. Although this ratio is unacceptable, too many people still flock to it.

"When I get rich, I will buy a flying car to drive myself, and then buy another flying car for Miaomiao to drive... It would be great if I could be like my elder brother and join the Space Force to earn some credits. I don't know how my elder brother will do.

How about it, God bless you and be safe."

Xu Hong was envious for a moment, thinking about all the relatives and friends around him, and found that his eldest brother was the only one who was considered a great person.

Because he is a soldier of the Imperial Space Force.

Although Xu Honglian did not know his eldest brother's military rank or unit, this did not affect his admiration and expectations for his eldest brother. He only knew that his eldest brother had joined the expedition fleet and, under the leadership of the Chairman, went on an expedition to open up shipping routes.

Riding all the way, Xu Hong soon arrived at the flower shop.

"Boss, has the Purple Mengluo I ordered yesterday arrived?"

"Here we are, here we are, these are the purple dream flowers that have just been shipped back from the Avatar Star. Boy, just these two, I'm afraid they will use up all your pocket money."

When the boss saw the change handed over by Xu Hong, he smiled and asked the clerk to wrap up the flower. It was a purple dreamflower with petals like crescent moons. The earth does not produce it, only the Avatar planet produces it.

Just two flowers, Xu Hong spent all his savings.

As a junior student, a considerable part of this is pocket money given by my elder brother.

After carefully carrying the flower box, Xu Hong hurried back to school.

"Miaomiao, look, the Purple Mengluo I bought for you!"

Xu Hong saw Miaomiao waiting for him at the school gate from a distance, a cute girl with long hair and wearing a purple dress.

“It’s so beautiful!”

Miaomiao was so happy when she saw that Xu Hong had really bought Purple Mengluo for herself. Then, she did something that stunned Xu Hong, "Purple Mengluo, who wants to buy Purple Mengluo..."

"Miaomiao..."

Xu Hong was surprised.

Miaomiao signaled him not to speak, quickly sold the flowers, and then handed him the money.[

"What I want is your heart, and I don't want to spend all your money."

Xu Hong touched his head, knowing that Miaomiao had accepted him, and was so moved. The two of them just hugged each other and were about to kiss, when they heard an aviation siren sounding in the sky.

This kind of aviation alarm is not a combat alarm, but will only sound when the spacecraft fleet is about to enter the port.

"Now play an urgent news: Our great First Expeditionary Fleet has just arrived at the outskirts of the Earth's Capital Star and is about to enter the port. Repeat, our great First Expeditionary Fleet has just arrived at the outskirts of the Earth's Capital Star and is about to enter the port. All units

Please note..."

Along with the sound of the radio, the TV broadcasts on the street buildings, and even the three projection screens in the sky, they all began to tell one thing, that is, the returning expedition fleet.

A huge 3D projection has projected the image of the expedition fleet into the air. Millions of people can see it when they raise their heads.

"Battleship, that is our expedition fleet!!

"Woooooooooo..."

The siren sounded at the right time. It was not a combat siren. It was just like an ordinary drill siren.

"Miaomiao, look, our fleet is back!"

"Wow! There are so many spaceships, it's incredible."

"Miaomiao, my eldest brother must be up there!"

Xu Hong was extremely excited, as if he saw his big brother on the spaceship through the layers of sky.

The street in front of the school has long been filled with students. Everyone is staring at the screen and the projection in mid-air, waiting for the fleet.

As we all know, because the battleships are so huge, once a fleet of spaceships enters Hanking Port, all citizens only need to do one thing: raise their heads and see the mighty fleet.

This time, it's the same.

After all, the TV screen is not big enough, and the range of the 3-projector is also limited. Everyone wants to see the expedition fleet with their own eyes.

Xu Hong and Miao Miao, like hundreds of people around them, were eagerly waiting for the fleet to return. These fleets were going to enter the Hanking Spaceport because the Chairman was in the fleet.

"It's coming! Look, it's coming! Our expedition fleet is back."

Just like hundreds of years ago, when the ocean-going fleets returned during the great voyages, people welcomed them at the port. Now, when the expedition fleets return, everyone stands at home, on the roof of a building, on the street. Anywhere where the sky can be seen, raising their heads.

, you can see those huge spaceships.

As people cheered, a huge spaceship first emerged from the clouds and appeared in the sight of tens of millions of Hanking citizens.

Even though it was tens of thousands of meters high, people could successfully see the huge two-kilometer-long battleship after a large number of clouds were dispersed.

Then, one warship after another emerged from the clouds and formed a long queue.

At this time, the live broadcast under the personal command of the Imperial Propaganda Department was also directed to the whole world. Countless high-tech equipment was aimed at the sky, capturing the most detailed pictures, and simultaneously broadcasting them to any place in the world, even the United States, which was still hanging on.

.

Soon, the people of Hanking discovered that more than 60 spaceships of various types had emerged from the clouds and almost filled the entire sky.

The dense darkness makes people feel suffocatingly crazy and excited.

"When we went on the expedition, we only had a dozen or so spaceships. Why did we have more than 60 when we came back?"

Xu Hong was puzzled and said to himself. Others quickly discovered this problem, and more and more people were discussing what happened to these extra battleships and spaceships.

Before they could guess, the next moment, the same person appeared on the live broadcast screen, the screen on the street building, or the huge 3-projection screen in the sky.

A man wearing an ordinary black Space Force uniform, but with dragon patterns on the uniform, the Chairman of the Supreme Power Commission of the Chinese Empire, Zhang Shusheng.

“Compatriots of the Chinese Empire, and 3 billion compatriots around the world:

I am Zhang Shusheng, and I am very happy to be able to say a few words from my heart to you as I return home.

As you can see, we returned successfully with zero losses, which is a very remarkable fact. In contrast, I can officially announce to all compatriots in the Chinese Empire and compatriots around the world that we have successfully completed

The important task of opening up shipping routes.

This is a safe route to the outer star field. Along it, we braved all obstacles and successfully arrived at Nok Merchant Alliance, a huge country also located in the southwest star field of the Milky Way.
