Fang Zhao only returned back to the base a month after the auction ended . There had been many activities going on over at the outpost . After the 30 million had been received, Bie Liao had organized an exuberant celebration and then started upgrading the outpost and obtaining better equipment for the outpost team .
Outpost 23's region was a key development area in the base's plans . Already, a development team had been dispatched to the outpost, and surface and subterranean constructions had been started . According to the plans, a city was to be built in the region of Outpost 23 .
As a key development area, the outpost team's strength of 200 was not enough . Bie Liao had applied for an expansion and requested the base transfer another 100 men over .
The one hundred troops during Yan Biao's time had expanded to 300 now . In the aftermath of the terrorist attack, there had been changes to his military duty . He had also been promoted to the rank of captain . If everything went well, at the end of the year, his rank might rise by one more grade .
There were other outposts, but Outpost 23's strength was being increased to 300, whereas other outpost teams that were not in key development areas were remaining at 100 . In the near future, Outpost 23 would undergo a name change to the 23rd Battalion, and Bie Liao's rank would naturally rise following that .
As long as Bie Liao did not court disaster or make any critical errors, he would steadily rise following the development of the outpost region .
This was the reason many people pitied Yan Biao . If nothing had happened to Yan Biao, given his background, he would surely have risen faster than Bie Liao .
Channel S5's live broadcasts captured the everyday changes of Outpost 23's region . This also verified Baiji's military district's words . It was indeed a land of dreams . Youngsters who had been unable to join the previous two immigration planet constructions were welcome to join this team and make a large contribution to the immigration cause .
Fang Zhao was here for military service and naturally did not idle . He was not someone to have different personas on-screen and offscreen; he worked industriously all the time .
This dragged on, and only after a month did Fang Zhao return to the base, since Shanta had requested for him .
Originally, Shanta had decided to let his secretary explain matters to Fang Zhao, as he was busy with official duties every day and did not even have lunch breaks . Thinking it through, though, Shanta decided to personally meet Fang Zhao face to face .
When he met Fang Zhao, Shanta asked right away, "Do you know who it was that bought your creature's tooth?"
"No idea . " Fang Zhao surveyed Shanta and waited for what would follow . Given Shanta's expression, he probably knew some information about the other party's identity .
Shanta asked again, "Do you really not know?"
"I really don't . "
Shanta peered at Fang Zhao with his incisive gaze for a few seconds before nodding . "I also found out after the auction was over . The person who bought your song-inscribed creature's tooth is someone from the Interplanetary Fund . "
When Shanta had first found out about the other party's identity, he had spoken to that side after the auction . The reason the other party had forked out such a high bid for the creature's tooth was this: there were not many youngsters who were calm and not fickle in their circles like Fang Zhao was, and this was something that should be encouraged .
Shanta also did not really know whether the other party's words were genuine or not . He had thought to himself, You can say it however you like . In any case, it is still Baiji military district receiving the benefits .
Shanta did not tell Fang Zhao which high-ranking official in the Interplanetary Fund had bought his item, but he gave Fang Zhao two important pieces of information . First, the other party's family clan had set up the interplanetary fund . The Interplanetary Fund involved itself in three main areas: scientific research, military constructions, and nurturing talents . When Fiery Bird had first been founded, the company had received helped from the Interplanetary Fund . Therefore, forking out 300 million to win that creature's tooth was not that strange . After all, that person had serious financial muscle . No matter how headstrong Shanta was, he also would not say anything more .
The second reason, as the other party had mentioned, was just to encourage youngsters . There was no other special significance . Therefore, Fang Zhao should not think about borrowing this connection with the Interplanetary Fund to seek even more benefits .
Shanta was frank and explained it simply so that Fang Zhao's thoughts about this matter would not go askew .
Fang Zhao only displayed slight astonishment and, following that, nothing else . The responses that Shanta were worried about did not appear .
When he saw Fang Zhao's reaction, Shanta praised Fang Zhao silently in his heart . This little fella is relatively upright, unlike certain little celebrities in the entertainment circles who jump at the chance to cling onto someone influential .
Since this was the case, Shanta also did not need to worry anymore . He took out a communications device and handed it over to Fang Zhao . "The other party wishes to say some words to you . But I don't know when you will receive the call . Take this first .
"This isn't anything major and was just one of the matters I wished to speak to you about . As for the second matter, you should have seen it on your way here . The family residential district's construction is nearly complete . The first batch of family members of military personnel on the immigration name list will be divided into three trips . The first round has already arrived . "
Shanta's wife and parents had already came over . His children were still working back on Earth and would transfer over in the future . When they had all really settled down in future, this would be their home . When they traveled to earth for meetings or other matters next time, it would now be considered going on a trip instead of returning home .
It was little wonder that Shanta had always had a smile on his face despite being dog-tired lately . When a person had something to strive for and had a clear-cut direction to follow, his entire state would be totally different from before .
Fang Zhao was also very satisfied with planet Baiji's current condition . "Congratulations . "
Although it was only family members of military personnel immigrating, the immigration cause had already taken its first step . Fang Zhao was really gratified . He had not seen the dawn of the Founding Era, but he was getting to witness the process of a foreign planet's immigration .
Shanta no longer showed the air of a commander . "Hahaha, same to you!" After all, Fang Zhao was different from other people . Although he would no longer let Fang Zhao get involved with troop deployment and personnel transfers, he would give Fang Zhao some benefits in other areas .
"In the family district, I have reserved a room for you in block 5 . During your military service duration, you can stay alone there or you can let your family members join you . When you have decided, you can submit their names, and if the audit has no issues, we can bring them on the third round of transportation . "
Fang Zhao's identity information had already been input . As long as he went over to scan his ID, he would be able to enter .
"Besides this, there is still the third matter . I spoke to you about this before . Other planets wish that you head over for a visit . You can choose when to go, and it will count as military service duties . What do you think?"
Fang Zhao had no objections . "All right . "
