Chen Ming and Bai Quan signed several docunts.
They confird the joint developnt of Superspace Navigation Engine technology, along with setting a profit-sharing ratio.
Subsequently, the Fourteenth Legion will have its own team of professionals to handle the technical aspects, so Chen Ming need only occasionally address a few issues.
Most of the ti, he just needs to wait for the money to co in.
As Bai Quan’s side enters a particularly busy period, morning lessons are paused, giving Chen Ming so free ti to handle things outside his original plan.
For instance, coordinating with Brilliant to begin the initial scan and wrap-up work around the first hyperspace jump arrival point.
Last week, about 80% of the star systems around the temporary outpost had been explored.
Within two weeks, the star systems that might host habitable planets are expected to be fully explored; now, only about a week remains.
Then, it will be ti to start preparations for the second jump.
Chen Ming needs to compile all survey data and various findings up to this point, summarizing an efficient exploration process based on the initial temporary outpost exploration to apply in the next venture.
Of course, saying it’s wrapping up doesn’t an Chen Ming will leave imdiately.
The temporary outpost, newly established just over a month ago, certainly cannot be dismantled so soon.
He can arrange for Dusk to head to the next temporary outpost while leaving part of the Dusk team to continue investigating the unexplored star systems.
The reserve Dusk units left earlier are for use at a ti like this.
After all, an 80% exploration progress doesn’t an a complete survey of the star systems around the outpost, and many star systems were never visited by Dusk under Chen Ming.
So stars inherently prevent the existence of habitable planets, and without habitable planets, such star systems hold no value for colonial establishnt, hence many were not visited by Dusk.
But there will always be star systems that, while they may not host habitable planets, still contain so valuable planets.
Turning over data from valuable planets and systems can still be profitable for Chen Ming.
Under the current large-scale investigation premise, fuel costs can be significantly reduced.
The data, once converted directly into money, will certainly exceed fuel costs.
Unless hundreds of light-years around are entirely empty with no valuable systems or planets, which is unlikely.
And the money earned can be reinvested into deploying the second batch of Dusk and the construction of the second temporary outpost.
The deploynt of the second batch of Dusk will be arranged by Brilliant at the appropriate ti.
Constructing the second temporary outpost will require special investigation to find suitable planets and systems for construction.
Chen Ming chose the first temporary outpost site randomly, due to situational pressures at the ti.
However, the selection of the second site must be carefully considered, given sufficient ti.
The chosen planet must have resources to be exploitable for a ti to supplent material consumption.
This allows the Dusk team on the ground to achieve more significant effects.
Certainly, Chen Ming isn’t available for such a challenging task, so the responsibility has been passed on to Radiant.
Radiant is the most suitable Dusk for achieving this goal.
Additionally, there have been ongoing tasks that Chen Ming has stepped up efforts on during these two days of free ti.
For example, further persuading HR, who has shown clear signs of relenting, to fully let go of its bias against humans, and at least against Chen Ming, to join him completely.
And figuring out a way to rember the Alpha-grade individual, Flash, in his thoughts.
It’s just that Flash has always been extraordinarily taciturn.
Although it can be said that since Chen Ming saved it from a massacre by other Dusks, Flash hasn’t had any further ideas and has silently stood guard at the temporary outpost, far easier to handle than HR,
the remaining issue is that it is simply too quiet, and Chen Ming has almost never heard it speak proactively.
Communication is sparse, occurring primarily during Cruiser maintenance when he has to personally oversee repairs, exchanging just a few words then.
This has led to tis when Chen Ming would forget about Flash, completely forgetting about the Alpha-grade Dusk.
Thus, Chen Ming has been trying to remind himself of Flash while also softening HR these two days.
The results... are not very promising.
However, the issue isn’t significant; Flash will continue to do what it’s supposed to.
Bai Quan’s busyness has indeed given Chen Ming ample ti to engage in other valuable activities.
Besides the second jump preparation work, persuading and understanding the Dusks he has, along with daily scheduled learning,
every night before resting, Chen Ming performs an extensive maintenance task almost equal to a daily routine on appropriate targets.
Such as optimizing the Dusk core and aiding the Insect Queen in optimizing biological structures.
Chen Ming specifically allocated an instance for Shao Yang as well, completing a first-ti collaborative attempt.
Everything is progressing toward a positive direction.
