Around 11 PM on December 31, 3032 (Galactic Calendar)
It was the turn of the new year, and the entire Xiaolong Galaxy was imrsed in the joy of the new year.
Because of the policies arranged by Zhao Chen, the quality of life in the Xiaolong Galaxy improved rapidly within just one year.
In previous years, only the nobles on the main planet of Xiaolong were happy during the New Year's Eve.
But this ti, every inhabited planet was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations.
A lakeside orchard within the T3 Silver Eden complex.
This place has been set up as a picnic party venue.
Many people participated this ti, including Zhao Chen's right-hand won such as Charlotte, Zhao Wan'er, Lilith, and Annie.
There are also several dozen newly trained senior officers.
They are all important talents in various departnts of the Xiaolong Legion.
In addition, Zhao Chen had specially invited so 'guests'.
dusa from the Reef Starfield, Red Rose from the Thorn Group, Li Yaqi from the Northern Goose Group, and the little princess who sought refuge, among others.
The scene was very lively.
The air was filled with the aroma of food.
Fine wine, delicious food, beautiful won.
Zhao Chen was enjoying himself on a deck chair by the lake; the scenery was truly beautiful.
"Lilith, how are the New Year's Eve plans going?" Zhao Chen asked Lilith, who was always by his side.
Lilith replied, "The New Year's Eve activities were arranged a week ago. During the week of the New Year, each fleet can have its crew mbers go to various T3 Silver Edens for vacation [N O V E L I G H T] and rest, except for those who have to keep the minimum required number of crew mbers on duty."
All purchases made above will be free.
For this purpose, we have also prepared a large amount of food, goods, clothing, and entertainnt activities, etc.
And ensure that every crew mber can enjoy at least five days of vacation during the New Year period, including the technical crew mbers on the interstellar industrial ships.
However, Chief Engineer Anne has already arranged the job rotation, so it will not affect the production plan.
In addition, so year-end gifts were given to the crew mbers.
Zhao Chen nodded in satisfaction: "The crew mbers have been working for more than a year, so they should be allowed to enjoy a good rest during the New Year."
Looking at the commander's smile, Lilith felt that this man was really'strange'. If it were anyone else, let alone such a lavish New Year's Eve event, they probably wouldn't even have a holiday.
You should know that these activities and holidays assigned by the Commander may seem simple, but they involve expenditures of hundreds of millions of star coins!
But when the commander heard the figure, he signed it off without a second thought and even gave a very generous overspending budget.
"Go have so fun too. You've worked hard all year, have so fun. You don't need to stay here with all the ti." Zhao Chen pointed to the party with its lively chatter.
"It's enough for to stay by your side," Lilith said softly.
“This is an order. Can’t you see your people are all watching you?” Zhao Chen urged.
“Yes... if you need anything, please feel free to call anyti.” Lilith said, then turned back every three steps to join the party.
Upon seeing Lilith enter, the succubi imdiately surrounded her.
Because of their intelligence, the succubi quickly beca core mbers of various departnts after joining the Dragon Legion.
They primarily work as secretaries or similar positions.
As the fleet grew, these succubi beca insufficient.
"Aren't you going to go play?" a voice rang out behind Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen looked up and saw his eldest sister, Zhao Ruyue, holding a wine glass and looking down at him.
"I won't go, even though I consider them friends."
However, when I appeared among them, many of them were still quite reserved.
"I'm doing well here," Zhao Chen said casually.
Looking at her younger brother and then at the scene before her, Zhao Ruyue sighed, "I've really doubted many tis whether you're really my brother."
You've changed so much in just a few short years.
I really find it hard to believe that the bookworm who only knows how to read books could have built such a massive interstellar network...
Zhao Ruyue originally wanted to say the word 'empire', but the taphor seed inappropriate.
After all, she's still working under the little princess.
But in Zhao Ruyue's mind, Zhao Chen now controls the Xiaolong Legion and related territories, as well as industries, agriculture, and people's livelihoods.
They already have the rudints of an interstellar empire.
Zhao Chen didn't answer his older sister's question directly. He stretched and said, "Sotis I think so too. It all feels like a dream."
"Well, it seems you've got a pretty good dream." Zhao Ruyue changed the subject, sipping her wine and looking at the group of girls talking sweetly across from her: "Right, you're not young anymore."
Among these people, who are my siblings? Or... are they all of them?
Zhao Chen was drinking water when he choked: "Cough cough cough... Sis, you're exaggerating a bit."
"You are now the Lord of the Dragon Kings, and you also rule over the massive Dragon King Legion."
Other lords your age would already have children.
In our Zhao family lineage, you are the only male descendant in this generation.
"For the sake of the Zhao family, you should also consider your own affairs," Zhao Ruyue said.
When did my older sister start urging to get married?
Zhao Ruyue said casually, "Whether it's Charlotte, Lilith, or Annie..."
Anne?
Zhao Chen stared at Zhao Ruyue in shock. "Which little brat is this? Sis, this is a cri!"
"They are ultimately just your subordinates. They can be your concubines, but not suitable as your principal wife."
Your Highness, have you considered this?
Zhao Ruyue's last words made Zhao Chen narrow his eyes as he looked at his older sister: "Did Qin Xiaolei ask you to say this?"
"Don't misunderstand, the little princess doesn't have that many thoughts yet; but I have to think about her future."
To be honest, you're in a cooperative relationship now, which is good.
But if you have a conflict in the future due to certain interests or purposes, it won't be easy for to handle it from the middle.
However, if the two of you have this relationship, it will be of great help to both of you.
If you marry the little princess, with your abilities, you will definitely beco soone second only to the emperor, and rightfully so.
Even if the little princess were to reclaim the throne in the future, it would be difficult for her to maintain her power on her own. But with you, things would be different.
You two, one has a legitimate reason for your actions, and the other possesses real strength.
"This is a perfect opportunity to leverage each other's strengths and compensate for each other's weaknesses," Zhao Ruyue said earnestly.
To be honest, what my older sister said makes a lot of sense.
"You don't need to answer now, think it over carefully."
"If you've thought it through, I can help you," Zhao Ruyue said.
help ?
Help win over the little princess?
"Big sister, wouldn't you say this counts as 'plotting to murder' our lord?" Zhao Chen looked at his sister in surprise.
