I have a space station

"But, on the other hand, since it's what the country needs, I can help with the ideological work. It's just that he has one quirk: he has to take his sister everywhere. If you don't transfer his sister along with him, I'm afraid he won't go with you," Zhang Yuan Kui added.

Hearing this, Duan Bing's brow relaxed.

So that's the situation.

"Oh, right, how many Mutants do you need?" Zhang Yuan Kui asked earnestly.

"What do you mean?" Duan Bing asked.

"I mean, would you mind taking one more Mutant?" Zhang Yuan Kui asked with a smile.

"Are there other Mutants here?" Duan Bing asked in surprise. Sometimes he would visit several settlements in a row and not see a single asymptomatic case. But here, they were asking if he would mind taking an extra one.

"I'll tell you quietly, his sister is also a Mutant. And... exceptionally powerful!" Zhang Yuan Kui said softly.

Hearing this, Duan Bing clenched his fist in excitement.

Mayor Gong, who was next to him, was utterly confused, feeling like it was his first time in Mei Lin.

"Is this true?" Duan Bing asked.

"What are you saying? Would I lie to you about this? You'll know if you try it later," Zhang Yuan Kui said, taking a sip of tea.

"If that's the case, then there's absolutely no problem transferring both of them back to the Military and Political Department," Duan Bing said confidently.

"Alright, then there's no problem. I'll call them in," Zhang Yuan Kui said, getting up and going out.

Soon after, Shen Wengang followed Zhang Yuan Kui in.

"Why is it you again?" Shen Wengang asked first.

Although he had already decided to go, he couldn't lose face.

"Brother Tiangang, we apologize for our bad attitude earlier," Duan Bing said, standing up.

"There's no need for apologies. I already said, it's impossible for me to go with you," Shen Wengang said.

"Is it because of your sister?" Duan Bing asked, believing he had grasped the crux of the problem.

"That's right!" Shen Wengang replied after a moment of silence.

"That's easy to solve. You and your sister can go together," Duan Bing replied.

"Ah?" Shen Wengang pretended to be surprised, looking at Zhang Yuan Kui and saying:

"Chairman, what's this?"

"Tiangang, since they've agreed to let you go together, I suggest you go. Going to Kyoto is much better than staying here with nothing to do," Zhang Yuan Kui said, pretending to do ideological work.

"That's right," Duan Bing echoed.

"Luo'er, what do you say?" Shen Wengang asked.

"Wherever brother goes, I'll go," Luo'er replied.

"Then alright," Shen Wengang relented.

"Great, that's wonderful," Duan Bing said happily.

After Duan Bing left with the others, Mayor Gong asked:

"Chairman Tiansha, what exactly are Mutants? Why do the people from the Military and Political Department seem to have found some kind of treasure?" Mayor Gong asked curiously.

"Mutants are also a type of infected. It's just that they don't zombify after infection, which is similar to asymptomatic carriers. The difference is that Mutants gain enhancements in all aspects of their bodies, leading to increased physical functions," Zhang Yuan Kui explained.

"I see," Mayor Gong said, seemingly understanding.

This had nothing to do with him. As long as the settlement didn't have any problems, the other things didn't matter. Anyway, he couldn't manage them.

"Xiaolin, Tiangang and Qianluo will definitely undergo background checks after entering the Military and Political Department. Help them create a brand new identity and send the information to them," Dongfang Chen said after everyone left.

"Yes, Commander," Xiaolin replied.

Another week passed in the blink of an eye.

The Red-Clad Sect's Enforcers that they were waiting for never appeared, and the Finch lurking in the Huailing Settlement didn't send back any useful information either.

Inside Niu Xingwang's office at the Huatong Chamber of Commerce.

"Mr. Dongfang, you said it's been so long, why haven't the Red-Clad Sect's people come yet?" Niu Xingwang asked.

"I'm not sure. I haven't been able to gather any further information on my end either," Dongfang Chen replied.

"Are you saying that the information from last time was wrong, or that the Red-Clad Sect's people discovered something and then didn't dare to come?" Niu Xingwang said.

"The information from last time shouldn't have been wrong, otherwise Mei Wenhua wouldn't have admitted it. If the Red-Clad Sect canceled the operation, then what reason caused them to cancel it? Could it be related to Mei Wenhua's death?" Dongfang Chen thought for a long time but couldn't find an answer.

"I can't figure it out for now, let's not worry about this for now. How's the preparation work going on the Mercenary Guild's side?" Dongfang Chen asked.

"Everything is ready," Niu Xingwang said.

"Alright, send people out to post the announcements today, and we'll open tomorrow," Dongfang Chen said.

"Okay!" Niu Xingwang said, and went out to get busy.

Dongfang Chen opened the control panel through his Digital Eye.

Just now, Xiaolin had sent a message that the production bay had been built.

"Xiaolin, next, start building the mounting bay. At the same time, the production bay should fully produce Worker Bee robots," Dongfang Chen ordered.

"Yes, Commander."

The Level 1 mounting bay can mount one air-to-ground spacecraft. With the air-to-ground spacecraft, it can realize the transfer of materials between the space station and the ground.

Currently, the total number of Worker Bee robots is 100, and the current capacity limit of the space station is 500. Under the condition that the production bay is fully producing, it will take about 1 week to complete the production of all 400 Worker Bee robots.

However, the construction speed of the mounting bay will not be the original 7 days. Because as the number of Worker Bee robots increases, the construction speed of the mounting bay will continue to accelerate. Comprehensively calculated, it will take about four days, and it will be faster and faster as it goes on.

After the mounting bay is built, building the quantum communication bay will shorten the time to 1/5 of the original, and it can be completed in less than two days.
