People Found Out About The Base I Built On the Moon Chapter 48: Let the Blue Moon Stop Spinning

Chapter 48: Let the Blue Moon Stop Spinning

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The negotiations ended, and Mr. Zhao instructed the s.p.a.ceship to find an uninhabited location to drop off Colonel Chu and the others.

He then led the entire fleet to Blue Moon to begin establishing a branch base.

The Blue Moon was a small asteroid with only 50 kilometers in diameter. Right now, it was captured by Earth’s gravity and was spinning at an extremely fast speed, making entry and exit inconvenient.

Gazing through the window at the tiny celestial body, Mr. Zhao contemplated for a moment before speaking, “Uncle Da, is there a way to make it stop?”

“Are you suggesting that we make the tides on the Blue Moon fixed just like the Moon?” Uncle Da inquired.

“Yes!” Mr. Zhao nodded. “It keeps spinning, and finding a landing spot becomes troublesome.”

“It can be done. We simply need the warships to exert force at these designated locations, gradually depleting Blue Moon’s kinetic energy…” Uncle Da transmitted a three-dimensional diagram, indicating the spots where the warships should apply force.

…..

Without hesitation, Mr. Zhao recalled all the disc-shaped s.p.a.ceships and ordered them to halt Blue Moon. These ships could make use of the abundant magnetic forces near Blue Star, making them more suitable for the task than nuclear-powered s.p.a.cecraft.

Colonel Chu and the others were dropped off the s.p.a.ceship, and as they lifted their heads, the sky appeared empty and deserted, evoking a sense of awe.

“The s.p.a.ceship’s stealth capability is remarkable!”

“Yes, its optical invisibility is incredible!”

Colonel Chu looked around in astonishment and realized they were outside the capital city, Xia Du. This saved them the trouble of rushing back.

Leading the group, he entered the city and casually found a telecommunications office to make a phone call.

Soon after, several black business vehicles arrived and picked them up.

Once they returned to the underground secret base, Colonel Chu recounted his conversation with Mr. Zhao in front of a group of elders.

“We shall give our full support!”

“We will bear not only the construction costs but also take care of other aspects, such as advertising and pre-sales at offline stores…”

“As soon as Mr. Zhao sends over the specifications and physical samples of the three products, we will immediately notify the Audiovisual Program Administration Bureau to exclusively air advertis.e.m.e.nts for Blue Moon Technology Group’s projection touch watch,’ ‘magnetic levitation Car,’ and ’robots’…”

Colonel Chu nodded and asked, “Since they are planning to issue Blue Moon currency, how will the public be able to exchange it?”

One of the elders narrowed his eyes and replied, “First, we will acquire some Blue Moon currency from Blue Moon Corporation in exchange for resources. Then, we will convert it into Great Xia currency. The specific exchange ratio will be determined by experts…”

At this point, the elder paused and continued, “Xiao Chu, you have done well in handling this matter. We have already reached an agreement with other regions of Blue Star. We are forming a group called the Earth Federation, allocating the appropriate number of representatives to each region based on their strength…”

Colonel Chu was taken aback. He never expected the progress to be so rapid. The over two hundred sovereign ent.i.ties had merged overnight.

Seemingly aware of his confusion, the elder smiled and said, “The pressure from extraterrestrial beings is even greater than we imagined. If it weren’t for their arrival, it would have taken us several centuries to unite Planet Earth…”

“The Great Xia will now be called the Great Xia District. Within the district, we will have total control. However, when it comes to matters concerning Earth, the decisions will be made by the representatives in the council…”

Before Colonel Chu could fully digest the information, the elder dropped another bombsh.e.l.l.

“There will be a position for you in the Earth Federation Council…”

Leaving the underground base, Colonel Chu felt dazed for quite some time before finally coming to his senses.

At that moment, a.s.sistant w.a.n.g handed him a doc.u.ment.

“Is this Mr. Zhao’s detailed information?!” he exclaimed as he took the doc.u.ment and began reading.

“Zhao Yu, abandoned infant found near the entrance of Chang’an Ninth Orphanage…”

“Educational background: Experimental Kindergarten, Experimental Primary School, Experimental Middle School, Chang’an College of Arts and Sciences… Second-cla.s.s undergraduate degree, Master’s degree in Electronic Commerce…”

“Disappeared around December 29, 2022?”

After going through the information, Colonel Chu furrowed his brows and asked, “Is this all?”

a.s.sistant w.a.n.g scratched his head and replied, “Zhao Yu didn’t partic.i.p.ate in many social activities, and he seems to be a n.o.body in school. Our people visited his previous schools, but the teachers didn’t have much impression of him…”

Colonel Chu continued, “Does he have any social connections? Any friends? Has he been in a relationship?”

“I don’t know…”

“Is this how you do your job?! Is this how Yang always taught you?”

Colonel Chu was getting a little angry and said sternly, “This concerns the security of Earth. You need to investigate according to the highest priority level, visiting all his cla.s.smates…”

a.s.sistant w.a.n.g felt a bit aggrieved. When Engineer Yang was transferred to the Earth Joint Defense Agency, he took her along, and she became Colonel Chu’s subordinate by the way. But now she was receiving such severe criticism.

If she had known, she wouldn’t have come along…

“Forget it, you don’t need to investigate this matter!”

Seeing tears welling up in a.s.sistant w.a.n.g’s eyes, Colonel Chu was speechless for a moment. He didn’t expect a professional a.s.sistant to be such a crybaby.

After dismissing a.s.sistant w.a.n.g, Colonel Chu a.s.signed someone else to investigate Zhao Yu.

This time, he got straight to the point and explained the importance of this investigation. He even applied for a large amount of funding to help his subordinates get information from those who had been Zhao Yu’s cla.s.smates.

“If Zhao Yu has any friends or a lover…”

Colonel Chu pondered for a moment. Regardless of whether Zhao Yu had ever had a lover, it wouldn’t hinder him from using some feminine charm.

He refused to believe that in a world with so many stunningly beautiful, talented, and versatile women, they couldn’t win over Zhao Yu!

He then instructed, “Also, focus on whether Zhao Yu had any idols, which songs he liked, which celebrities he admired, and what games he enjoyed… We need all the information related to him!”

“Furthermore, visit the headquarters of major social media platforms and dig into Zhao Yu’s previous activities…”

Colonel Chu paused for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and shook his head, saying, “Forget it, cancel that part. Don’t go to those places.”

Checking Zhao Yu’s chat records on social media platforms could cause trouble if the other party found out. After thinking it over, Colonel Chu decided not to proceed with it.

“By the way, allocate funds to all the schools Zhao Yu attended, including the orphanage where he stayed…”

“How much should we give?”

“1 to 10 billion for schools, and 20 billion for the orphanage…”

“Should we give it in Zhao Yu’s name?”

“No, just name the funding under some project…”

These were all minor matters, but they had one goal—to win Zhao Yu’s favor.

“Also, when you visit Zhao Yu’s cla.s.smates, besides giving them money, have them sign a confidentiality agreement. Absolutely don’t let them leak anything…”

Colonel Chu paused again and added, “It’s better not to contact them through phone or the internet. Meet them offline in a place without cameras to discuss matters…”

He was worried that the network technology on the Moon might be more advanced than that of Earth, and they might already be secretly monitoring the world’s network and communication.

With everything settled, Colonel Chu took out a list and started selecting candidates who could use their feminine charm on Zhao Yu.

After selecting for a while and checking a few names, he suddenly thought of something. In the gender column, he removed the “female only” filter and changed it to “no gender restriction.” “We still don’t know his s.e.xual orientation, so let’s select all for now. We’ll figure it out later….”
