Looking at a report in his hand, Merion rubbed his brows and said with emotion: "This consumption, even us, can't afford it......"

He felt that everything he had done in the past few days was trying his best to burn money! Yes, there is only one way to burn money, which can describe the feeling of spending money every day.

It wasn't that comfortable, and he had never imagined himself in the past hundreds of years that he would one day be so extravagant.

As the commander of the Elanhill Empire's Elanhill Ring, his daily job is to approve the use of a large amount of funding to build so many spaceships that he himself can't even believe!

A wide variety of spaceships! There are combat-ready exploration-class space destroyers, spacecraft exploration ships, and of course, a huge number of space carriers!

In short, the entire Ring is now busy, with the construction of the spaceport and the construction of the spaceship going on almost simultaneously, and a large amount of materials being transported from Eransyris and Moonsiris to the Ring, machined into various parts, and then immediately transported away and assembled where they are needed.

The amount of money spent every day is simply indescribable: steel and magic crystals alone consume enough to sustain a magical empire for hundreds of years!

In fact, Merion also knew that this was just the beginning for the Ellan Hill Empire. In the days that followed, every day, every month, so invested in this production......

It won't stop until the Irlanhill Empire has enough resources at its disposal to continue expanding.

Of course, the pause will only be short-lived, and soon the entire empire will continue to expand outward, anywhere the exploration ship can reach!

This model is actually a model used by the Ranhill Empire, a gambling-like model that has never been used by those empires before.

In the early years of the development of the Irlanhill Empire, the large amount of money injected by the Dragonteite family gave the Orchid Hill Empire or Chris a taste of the sweetness of borrowing and development.

As a result, in a series of subsequent decisions of the Irlanhill Empire, it became a habit to eat grain.

The Iran Hill Empire never seemed to want to grow honestly, and every period of its history was accompanied by frenzied expansion and almost insane upfront investment.

Throughout the period of the rise of the Elanhill Empire, Seris was full of large-scale factories built directly - it did not expand from small factories, but directly invested money to build a large-scale factory directly in the wilderness without any preemptiveness.

No merchant would invest like that, because when the factory was built, it was probably still in the middle of nowhere, and there wasn't even a road!

But when the factory is built, the road there is also built - this is a planned, unrewarding construction sequence.

However, once these facilities are built, they can exert several times the power of conventional development!

The advantage of this development model is that it can rely on the abundance of capital and resources, directly skip the initial accumulation, and immediately increase the country's production capacity.

The downside is obvious, as long as the expansion is frustrated, the whole model will collapse, and then a seemingly huge empire will be destroyed in an instant.

Of course, Merion also knew that from any point of view, this unprecedentedly large cosmic empire was not in danger of collapsing in an instant......

So he bowed his head again and replied to an application to immediately start construction of two new space carriers in the construction of spaceport 3: "Agreed." ”

Just as he lifted the pen, the assistant pushed the door open and handed a report to Merion: "Sir! This is just confirmed that the Exploration Spacecraft 160 has lost contact. ”

"Lost contact again?" Merion frowned, then took the report, "Didn't this ship just come back for resupply?" Aren't they very lucky? ”

"Your Excellency...... Luck is such a thing...... There is no way. The assistant explained with some embarrassment.

Anyway, in the past two days, they have to hear such news every day, and their hearts are a little numb.

Before, a spaceship crashed, and the entire department on the ring would regret it for a while.

In some places, there are even commemorative ceremonies or festivals.

But now, the speed of the crash of these spaceships is faster than the speed of the memorial service. Everyone no longer feels sorry for the crashed spaceship, because everyone no longer has the energy to care about the crashed spaceship.

Every day, all the workers on the ring have to work overtime to produce spaceships, how can they have time to remember those old spaceships that have become cosmic garbage?

Merion was probably the only one who was still sensitive to the number, and he looked up at his assistant: "Counting the 198 spacecraft just confirmed, we've already lost half of the exploration spacecraft!" ”

"Yes, sir...... We've lost a full half of our ships! The assistant nodded, confirming the frustrating news.

"Yesterday, in just over a day, 30 spacecraft crashed...... It's only one morning today, and we've lost another 20 ships...... How can we explain to Your Majesty! Merion muttered, picking up a document from the table.

In fact, he was not in the mood to read the documents at all, and grabbing the documents was just a habitual action. When he faced the papers, he realized that he was in a mess of mind, so he put down the papers in his hand again.

Then, he looked at his assistant and asked, "Your Majesty already knows the news?" ”

"Yes, my lord, almost at the same time, we sent a telegram to Your Majesty...... However, His Majesty has no new instructions, and it may be ......" The assistant wanted to say, maybe His Majesty did not read the report at all.

"No, it is impossible for Your Majesty not to read the report...... He also confirmed the number of crashed ships yesterday...... Now, Your Majesty is also patient, enduring the speed at which this spaceship is lost! Merion let out a long exhale, as if he had made up his mind.

Then he clenched his fists and said to his assistant, "Let the rest of the exploration ships continue their mission!" ”

This is his responsibility, even in the end, this responsibility makes him responsible, he must persevere until the last moment! This is his loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor, unswerving loyalty to death.
