Chapter 2 and the Noble Children
Time passed in his expectation. A week later, there was a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a neat tuxedo standing outside the door. Even in the face of him, a bastard who was never taken seriously by the family, he could stand tall. Straight and meticulous.
"Master Qing, please go to the conference room!"
Li Qing nodded:
"I know."
A quarter of an hour later, Li Qing, who had changed his clothes, came to one of the main buildings on the other side of the manor. The attendant gently opened the door, and a burst of noise came from the door.
After pushing the door open and entering, a dozen or so eyes turned around. When they saw it was him, they quickly looked away.
Li Qing came in with a smile on his face. He had seen this happen too many times, and now he felt completely calm.
It was a very ordinary conference room, with a dozen young men and women who looked somewhat similar sitting on each side. They were many of his brothers and sisters.
At the top sits a serious-faced middle-aged man with black hair and a very young appearance. Gold glasses are framed on the bridge of his nose. Two carefully groomed mustaches hang on his lips. He looks extremely energetic. This is exactly what he is looking for. He is Li Qing's cheap father in this life.
Seeing him coming, a complicated look flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes. He knocked on the table expressionlessly and said in a deep voice:
"According to the regulations of the empire, you need to pioneer human civilization for ten years to decide whether you will obtain part of the family shares or inherit your father's industry in the family after ten years."
At this point, he glanced at the most outstanding children sitting in the front and said in a deep voice:
"Or you may perform even better, gain recognition from your great-grandfather, and have the opportunity to compete for the position of family patriarch."
Hearing this, you can clearly see the glint in the eyes of the young man sitting in the first few rows. This kind of glint has a name: ambition.
Although he didn't think that his sons would have that possibility, at least none of the children who had grown up in recent years were particularly outstanding, Li Xingchun still encouraged him.
"The development area determined by the family this time is located in the Jinmen Province in the second Tianjin Star Territory. The starting ships you need will be sent to the Jinmen Galaxy in the Jinmen Province in advance, and the starting funds will be invested later. In your account, you need to report to the Jinmen Provincial Office in the Jinmen Galaxy before the 15th of next month.”
"Get ready and leave as soon as possible."
After saying this, Li Xingchun stood up and said in a deep voice:
"Pioneering at this time is not only for the sake of the family, but also for your own future and future. I hope you will go all out and leave no trace behind."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
A small voice suddenly sounded in the conference room. Brothers and sisters gathered together in twos and threes and communicated in low voices.
Li Qing stood alone on the edge of the conference room, watching the brothers and sisters divided into three groups, headed by the three most outstanding brothers.
After several advanced genetic adjustments, Li Xingchun has a lifespan of four to five hundred years. He is now just over a hundred years old. When he was young and strong, in addition to having a total of eleven children with one head wife and two common wives, he also had many relationships with The concubine gave birth to seventy or eighty concubine children.
With so many children, it is natural to hope that a talented descendant will be born among them, thus making the family stronger. This is a unified behavior of all noble families.
It was for this reason that Li Qing was able to take him back and raise him as an illegitimate child.
Don't be afraid that you can't afford it. The Qinghe Li family rules a population of more than 80 billion. In addition to the Qinghe galaxy, the ruled area also has a large number of mining bases in surrounding galaxies. The family's huge trade fleet and chamber of commerce make billions of gold every day. , raising such offspring is no problem at all.
Not to mention having too many offspring will divide the family property thinly.
According to the regulations, all descendants who have not awakened their innate talents and have the identity of a player will all be given a sum of money to leave the family on the day they reach adulthood. They will no longer be able to act as a family in the future, which is equivalent to a forced family separation.
Even if the children have awakened their innate talents and become players, if their talents are not strong enough, their abilities are insufficient, and they have made no achievements in ten years of development, they will still be forcibly separated.
In this way, the only ones who can stay are the elites, and the benefits they bring will definitely exceed the divided family property.
It is through this method that these wealthy families will become stronger and stronger. With the accumulation of generations, quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes, and then they will launch an expedition to seize a living planet, open up territories for the United Empire of mankind, and finally become An ordinary wealthy family was transformed into a military leader, promoted to the Senate of Nobility, and became a member of the empire's ruling class.
Although Li Qing has awakened his innate talent, it turns out that the talent is not very strong. It is just a common talent, commonly known as a blank slate. It is difficult to say whether he can succeed after ten years of development.
If you don't perform well, you may still face the result of being forced to separate your family, but it will be much better than those who have not awakened your talents. Not only will you get more money from the family separation, but you can also accumulate an asset in the past ten years. As long as you save a little money, You will live very comfortably.
"What a realistic society."
From entering here to leaving, no one spoke to him. Li Qing felt speechless about his subconscious life of eighteen years.
He didn't have any friends, so he had nothing to miss. The next day he packed up his things and applied to his family for permission to use the family's star gate to teleport.
A micro-aircraft that is only five meters long blends into a huge fleet and dives into the vast star gate that is hundreds of kilometers high. It is as inconspicuous as a teacup cat blending into a group of tigers.
A star gate can only be established in a star city, but it can cross a distance of tens of thousands of light years from the Fourth Emperor's Star Region at the core of the empire to the Tianjin Star Region in one go. Only a super star city that surpasses the fifth level can build a star gate. Only the door can do it.
As the space distorted, everything outside the aircraft was rapidly elongated into strips of light that slowly rotated, forming a giant kaleidoscope.
He didn't know how long it took, but the kaleidoscope slowly turned into light again and gradually became shorter. He knew that the Jinmen Galaxy had arrived.
The new Milky Way, the Perseus Spiral Arm, the Tianjin Star Region, the capital of Jinmen Province - the Jinmen Galaxy.
"More than six hundred years ago, Yu Yichen, then the patriarch of the Yu family, led the imperial expeditionary force to defeat an alien civilization that was entrenched here and seized a large area of territory. The alien civilization's mother planet was the capital, and an empire far away from humanity was established here. The overseas province of the United Empire—Tinmen Province, the core galaxy of Jinmen”
"Tinmen Province is a single star system. The main sequence star Tianyi is a B-type blue main sequence star with a total of 17 large planets."
"Tinmen No. 1 colonial star is a second-class continental planet with a standard size of 24 grids and a population of more than 18 billion. It is an urban planet integrating economy and administration."
"Tinmen-2 colonial star is a second-class ocean planet with a standard size of 17 grids and a population of 5.8 billion. It is a tourist planet integrating tourism and culture."
"Reform star No. 3, with a standard size of 24 cells and a population of 9.5 billion, is the financial center of the galaxy."
"Reformation planet No. 4, with a standard size of 15 grids and a population of 2.2 billion, is an agricultural and pastoral planet."
"The No. 5 transformation star has a standard size of 12 grids and a population of 1.7 billion. It is a planet of science and technology and colleges. All science and technology research institutes and colleges in the galaxy are here."
"Reformation planet No. 6, with a standard size of 29 grids and a population of 14.6 billion, is an industrial planet."
"In addition, there are 8 large space residential stations in the Tianjin Galaxy. The large one has a population of 2.1 billion, and the small one has a population of 500 million, for a total population of 11 billion."
"The entire Tianjin has a total population of 62.8 billion and 1.8 billion active players."
"Jinmen has a fifth-level star city, four second-level and third-level star castles as auxiliary, and a division-level fleet belonging to the Yu family to station in the star city all year round."
"The central super star gate has 11 ultra-long-distance waterways connecting the hinterland of the United Empire of Humanity, and 112 regular waterways connecting the legion star gates near the Jinmen Province and overseas colonies as well as the mother stars of friendly alien civilizations. It is the trade of the entire Jinmen Province. The center is also the trading center for humans in Tianjin Star Territory.”
Li Qing slowly read through many information on the Jinmen Province and had a little understanding of the Jinmen Province and the Yu family.
The Yu family is a military lord that emerged more than six hundred years ago. It rose three hundred years earlier than the Qinghe Li family, but its overall strength is comparable to the Qinghe Li family.
The main reason is that it is isolated overseas. Not only is it inconvenient to trade with the United Empire, but it also has to face many hostile alien races in the Tianjin Star Territory at all times, making it difficult to develop the economy.
Although the Yu family established an overseas province in the Tianjin star field and established a bridgehead for the human empire in other star fields, the Tianjin star field where the Tianjin star province is located is located at the junction of the Yingxian spiral arm and the galactic center area. The heart is toward the second star field divided by the Hercules Spiral Arm to the north, and the headquarters of the United Empire of Mankind is located in the fourth star field, separated by a star field that is not owned by humans.
It is difficult for ordinary civilian players to travel from the empire headquarters to overseas provinces across tens of thousands of light years. This has resulted in the number of players in overseas provinces being small and the economy naturally cannot grow.
It is worth mentioning that the new Milky Way just happens to have the same shape as the Milky Way in the old universe, with a galactic center and four spiral arms. It is not a replica of the old Milky Way. Not only is the total mass of the new Milky Way much larger than that of the old Milky Way, but the planets are also completely different. It's different, and it doesn't intersect with the Andromeda Galaxy. It's a completely new galaxy, just to commemorate the old Milky Way.
So if you want to go to the end of Orion to find a galaxy with nine planets, you will definitely not find anything.
After entering the Jinmen galaxy, Li Qing immediately went to the family's office in Jinmen and prepared to pick up the ship prepared by the family. What he reported before was a frigate.
That's right, he is prepared to take the war route and whether he wants to expand his territory depends on whether the development goes smoothly.
In fact, expansion does not necessarily mean opening up territory, nor does it need to be a war route. It does not matter whether it is doing business, trading, building a team to build a fleet, or even becoming a pirate, as long as it can make outstanding achievements.
The reason why Li Qing took the war route was naturally for the sake of controlling the universe.
Although this thing was seriously damaged, even if you don't look at anything, just looking at the huge dock array inside and the huge cosmic space in your palm, it would be too wasteful to do anything else.
Moreover, his innate talents are suitable for this industry.
It's not the original innate talent. It turns out that the blank slate innate talent belongs to that stupid subconscious. When his main consciousness wakes up, the real innate talent overwrites the original blank slate talent.
"Properties Panel!"
Li Qing shouted softly, and the light curtain popped up in front of his eyes——
Name: Li Qing.
Race: human.
Lifespan: 18/108, not genetically modified.
Innate Talent: Children of the Stars (Secret)
Acquired talent: None.
Innate attributes: Perception 39, Memory 30, Mind 34, Spirit 31, Charisma 28.

Effect: The general brain slots are adjusted to 20 slots.
Effect: All attributes +20.
A normal player's innate attributes range from 5 to 20 points, and every 10 points is a threshold. That is to say, the 10-point attribute may not be 10% stronger than the 9-point attribute, but it may be 100%.
The Son of the Star's talent has all attributes +20, which instantly increases his already weak innate attributes by two orders of magnitude.
Perception, including the six senses, enhances personal response.
Memory, no need to explain, everyone understands it.
Mind refers to a series of mental states related to mentality, perseverance and willpower. Some people are afraid of threats, while others face difficulties. This is the gap in mind.
Spirit can also be called intelligence, but it is more than intelligence. It refers to creative logical thinking ability and analytical ability. It is easier to learn various skills if you are high in spirit.
Charm is difficult to explain in words. It is mainly related to social interaction and management. It does not mean that people with high charm must be handsome and beautiful, but people who are handsome and beautiful must have high charm.
The extremely powerful talent gives you super high innate attributes, a tenfold experience bonus, plus a universe in the palm of your hand, and you can look like a dog on a leash.
Li Qing didn't think he was that bad. With such an advantage, as long as he didn't waste his time, he would definitely be able to get ahead.
Although it is no longer the era of survival in the interstellar sea, it is now also the era of magnificent interstellar exploration and expansion. The alien civilizations that can survive are all equally powerful. Living in such an era, there are so many powerful opponents, Li Qing feels Life will definitely be exciting in the future.
The frigate is a standard Haiyan-class frigate. It is brand new and less than a year after leaving the factory. He immediately checked the attributes of the frigate.
