Star Survival: The Rise of the Fourth Scourge

After a while, Irina took off the blanket, stood up and sat up.

As the blanket left her body, a body with graceful curves and proud peaks was suddenly exposed to the air.

Naked, Irina got out of bed.

Beside the bed, she leisurely put on her underwear, garters, and finally her dress.

It was half an hour later when she put on a purple low-cut and tight-waisted aristocratic dress.

During this half hour, Irina's movements were very slight, for fear of waking up the "king" on the bed.

After putting on her dress and taking another look at the sleeping "King" on the bed, Irina left the bedroom lightly.

It's just dark, it's still early...

Today is the day when the "King" comes back, and it is also a day when her husband "Otis" is busy and has a headache.

"Lady Irina!"

In the corridor outside the golden door, Irina unexpectedly met Ainasha.

Glancing at the golden door at the end of the corridor, a trace of doubt flashed in Ainasha's eyes.

Since the "King" returned, the golden door has been closed.

No lunch is allowed, and no dinner is allowed.

It was only now that Lady Irina emerged from inside.

For such a long time, there were only "King" and Lady Irina inside?

Without thinking much, Ainasha asked: "The dinner time has already passed. Do you want to prepare dinner for the King?"

Irina smiled and said: "No need, the king has already gone to bed. Madam Ainasha, you will have to work hard tonight."

Mrs. Sandra had just come back and needed a few days' rest, so she could only leave the night duty to Ainasha.

Ainasha nodded and said: "Leave it to me..."

Without saying anything more, Irina continued to move forward in the corridor.

She left the palace, left the upper area of ​​the bridge, and came to the lower area of ​​the bridge.

In the temporary government office area, Irina found Otis.

It was an office neither big nor small.

"Sister Irina...Mrs.?"

In the office, Otis is busy.

Seeing the lady pushing open the door, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He quickly stood up and greeted him.

"Madam, why is it so early today?"

Look at the time, it's just dark.

On weekdays, when the regent is around, the lady usually doesn't come back until very late at night.

As the lady is the palace steward, Otis can understand.

Holding his wife's hand, Otis sat down on the sofa in the office.

As soon as she sat down, Irina smiled slightly and asked, "Did you encounter any difficulties?"

Hearing this, Otis smiled bitterly and said: "How can we not encounter difficulties? This time the regent has brought back a lot of troubles."

With a thoughtful look on her face, Irina asked: "Is it related to those slave workers?"

Nodding, Otis said: "Madam is really smart, you can think of this without me having to say anything."

Speaking of this, Otis took a deep breath and sighed: "This was originally a good thing. There are too many construction projects now, and there is a shortage of slave workers everywhere. With the addition of this group of slave workers, there will be no shortage of labor. It was fixed, but another problem arose.”

"Too many, a total of 30,000 people, so many slave workers, but they cannot all be put to work, and there are not enough mining machines and engineering machines for them to use. With the mass production speed of the mining machines, plus training the slave workers to drive Mining machines and engineering machines can only add 500 to 700 laborers a month.”

"And how to arrange the remaining slave workers? I can't even find a place to arrange their accommodation."

"Also, there is not much food storage on the Yuanxing. There are 30,000 more people all of a sudden. The food will be exhausted soon. Although the cultivation farm is about to be put into use, as long as there is a slight mistake, I will not be hungry. How many slaves died."

"I am free and can leave everything to my subordinates, but I have to watch, I have to supervise, and I have to urge. Otherwise, if the progress of any project is too slow, I will not be able to explain it to the regent."

Otis talked a lot.

There was helplessness, sadness, worry, and complaint in his tone.

Seeing that Otis had a headache and was at a loss, Irina pursed her lips and smiled.

"Madam, you are still smiling..."

He was having a headache, but his wife was still smiling heartlessly. Otis rolled his eyes.

Shaking her head, Irina said helplessly: "You just like to work and worry..."

Hearing this, Otis's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "Is there anything you can do, madam?"

Facing Otis' expectant gaze, the smile on Irina's face disappeared.

She mused: "Everything is prioritized. Whatever the king wants you to do, you just have to agree first. As for the process, the king will not care. What the king cares about is the result. There are two most important things right now. One is how to arrange it. Thirty thousand slave workers, and the second is to speed up the construction of the cultivation farm and put it into use as soon as possible. Apart from these two things, other things can be slowed down for a while. "

Speaking of this, Irina paused slightly, then continued: "The Alfred has a large amount of cabin space. Not to mention 30,000 people, it can easily accommodate even 50,000 people, and slave labor can be arranged On the Alfred, as for the construction progress of the cultivation farm, you must not only pay attention to the construction progress of the cultivation farm, but also the construction progress of the supporting facilities of the cultivation farm. Otherwise, even if the cultivation farm is completed, it will not be put into use immediately. , which will waste a lot of time.”

Arrange slave labor on the Alfred?

Will this work?

Otis said with some uncertainty: "Madam, will Colonel Ralph agree?"

Irina smiled and said: "He will agree, Otis, don't forget, I am now the palace manager. With this status, whether it is the Mechanicus or Colonel Ralph, they will give me a little bit of sympathy. , I will fully cooperate with you, otherwise, if one day I say something bad about them in the ear of the regent, they will not be able to bear it. "

Hearing this, Otis slapped his head.

He laughed and said, "How could I forget that my sister is the palace manager? Besides, it was you who recommended Colonel Ralph to be awakened. How could he refuse to cooperate in this small matter?"

Speaking of which, the fact that the Draven family can be awakened has something to do with his daughters.

Thinking of his daughters, Otis thought of something else.

Rolling her eyes at Otis, Irina said: "Call "Madam", and don't call me "Sister" anymore. We have been pretending to be husband and wife for decades, so let's keep pretending. Now it's no different than before. Women My status is always inconvenient. I need a husband to make use of my family, Otis, do you understand?"

Seeing "Madam"'s face become solemn, Otis smiled and nodded quickly.

He quickly changed the subject and asked: "Madam, how are those two girls? Why hasn't there been any movement for so long? I don't ask for more from the queen. I can't run away. Otherwise, how could the regent value morality so much? The Raven family.”

Irina rolled her eyes at her husband and warned: "It's better to criticize less about the 'King's' family affairs. If the 'King' hears it, it will ruin the hopes of the daughters to become concubines. Let it take its course." My daughters are still young and there is no need to worry.”

"Yes, yes, I am too talkative..."

Otis knew that he had made a mistake. The regent's family affairs were not something that subordinates like them could discuss.

"Madam, when will you wake Agatha?"

He and his wife have three daughters in total, the eldest daughter Agatha, and the younger daughters Eileen and Ellie.

Although they are not his own, he has watched Agatha grow up.

Of the three daughters, Agatha was the most similar to her sister.

Regardless of appearance or life experience, they are all surprisingly consistent.

Agatha was born when her sister was nineteen years old.

Five years later, Irene and Ellie were born.
