August 2026.
Gambia, Saint Mary, inside the Fortress Villa.
In front of a translucent projection screen, Levi was listening to a work report.
In the video, the capable woman in the dress said:
"Your Majesty, Levi, after nearly ten months and the busy work of over 100,000 intelligent robots, the overall renovation work on the first settlement area of 'Space City' has been completed by over 80%."
"The oxygen content of the air in the First Settlement Zone is roughly the same as that of Blue Mercury. Nitrogen, humidity, and carbon dioxide concentrations are similar to those on the surface of Blue Mercury. 70% of the ground is already covered with grass, and over 500,000 shrubs and trees have been planted... The ecosystem is essentially complete."
"The only difference is that the gravity in the first settlement zone is only half that of Earth's surface. Initially, humans will find it difficult to adapt, but after a few days, they'll discover the advantages of this gravity environment. The light-as-a-swallow scenes from martial arts movies could be achieved here without the aid of tools. The human high jump record could be broken to over three meters. Everyone here will feel much more relaxed."
"...In short, Your Majesty Levi, our 'Space City' has fully met the standards for immigration and settlement."
Shu Yuhui introduced that a few days ago she put on a space suit, boarded a space shuttle, and personally entered the space city. She removed all the protective kits and lived in the first settlement zone for three days, leaving behind beautiful and exciting memories.
She could write tens of thousands of words of happiness about her three days in space, but she still felt that "feeling very good" was more appropriate to describe it.
She also made a decision in her heart: in the future, she must immigrate to a space city and embrace the sea of stars.
"It seems... it's almost time to start the third phase of the plan."
Levi nodded. He was quite satisfied with the efficiency of the Dark Aerospace Company. Shu Yuhui did not hold him back.
Everything is progressing smoothly.
However, Levi does not plan to move to the space city immediately.
On the one hand, the "first settlement zone" is still a relatively primitive rough form. Even though the ecosystem system is very complete and allows humans to survive for a long time without protection, the supporting facilities are still not perfect.
There are currently only a dozen or so houses inside, and they are all temporary mobile steel houses. There is not a single reinforced concrete building.
Not to mention the luxurious villas with complete internal facilities.
There are no dedicated drinking water pipes.
The power system is also not perfect.
The most difficult thing is that the 10G fiber optic network has not been laid out.
Such a crude environment is unbearable for Levi, not even the primary school students and natives of Blue Mercury.
Moving in early is like running to a remote mountainous area. It might be fine for two or three days, but you will definitely get irritated if you stay there for a long time.
So once the supporting facilities are basically complete, it will be time for Levi to move into space.
"Probably...it will take about two months."
Think of this.
Li Wei said to Shu Yuhui on the screen, "How about this? The main construction of Space City can be slowed down a bit, and the main resources can be invested in these things."
"One is to carve out a 10 square kilometer area in the 'First Settlement Zone' to serve as my temporary palace. Then, we'll transport a large quantity of high-quality building and decoration materials from Blue Mercury to the temporary palace area and begin constructing a temporary 'imperial palace' covering a thousand acres and capable of accommodating thousands of people."
"I'll have the blueprints of the palace sent to you right away. Make sure the workers follow the design."
"In addition, I will allocate sufficient manpower to you. The number of intelligent robots will be increased to 200,000. I will also recruit 3,000 human decorators from Blue Mercury. I will have them work in three shifts, and strive to complete the construction of the temporary palace within two months."
"There's also the laying of drinking water pipes within the first settlement zone, the construction of power and internet systems, and the construction of a light rail and slow-speed highway network surrounding the entire settlement zone...all these supporting facilities must be built within two months."
"Time is extremely limited, and the task is extremely arduous. I hope you can complete the tasks I've assigned you. Not only must you complete them quickly, but you must also ensure quality, and ideally, there should be no delays. If there are any supplies missing, I will immediately mobilize resources to replenish them... Do you have enough confidence to complete these tasks?"
have!
Shu Yuhui in the video immediately made a promise.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. Technology in all fields has been developing rapidly in recent years, and the efficiency of various industries has been rapidly improving. In Xia Country, it wouldn't be a big news if a construction team built a hundred-story building in three months. However, with the most advanced 3D printing technology, three-story residential buildings in many places can be directly printed in three or four days, with guaranteed quality for more than 50 years, and the cost has been reduced by more than half."
"If your palace doesn't require overly high-end building materials and adopts 3D printing technology on a large scale, it could be built in just one month, including the interior decoration. If you have high quality requirements, then two months would be just right."
3D printing technology?
Levi suddenly understood. He had been so engrossed in playing games recently that he almost forgot about it.
Just now he thought that two months was a bit too much and that there would definitely be a slight delay. Now seeing Shu Yuhui's confident look, he realized that he was completely overthinking.
Two months later, he will definitely be able to leave Blue Mercury where he has lived for nearly ten years and officially move to the space city!
