Chapter 281: Hundred Years Plan

In fact, when the construction of the industrial ship was nearing completion, Wang Sen didn't have much work to do.

In addition to arranging special personnel to conduct routine inspections on each spacecraft, he urged the mining fleet to use the rest time to quickly collect some minerals that the fleet urgently needed when they arrived at a rest point.

Now that the hibernation plan has been abandoned, the plan in his mind has a chance to be realized.

At present, many small colonial spaceships are vacant in the fleet. These spaceships are not without people's willingness to live, but the internal environment is much worse than the three giant colonial spaceships.

Therefore, many people who still live on small colonial spaceships still have some complaints. There may be no problem in the short term, but over time it will still become a hidden danger that affects the stability of the fleet.

In addition, Fang Min wants to gradually relax the birth restrictions. If the population gradually increases, the living environment on the small colonial spaceships will become worse and worse.

This problem must be solved.

He referred to the initial construction method of the engineering ship that Qi Yiming got along with. Since those platforms can be mounted on the outer wall of the colonial spaceship during the jump, why can't those small colonial spaceships be connected to the three giant spaceships?

This matter still needs to be consulted with Shi Shaojie of the Academy of Sciences.

So Wang Sen took his work plan to Shi Shaojie and asked his Academy of Sciences to give some suggestions.

When Shi Shaojie saw Wang Sen's work plan, he was a little surprised. You know, the transformation of three colony ships is a huge and systematic project, and it is impossible to complete it in dozens or hundreds of years.

"Do you have the time to complete these tasks?"

"Hehe..." Wang Sen smiled mysteriously.

Shi Shaojie was a genius after all, and he quickly figured out what he meant.

He pointed at Wang Sen and said, "You...you gave up hibernation?"

Wang Sen nodded: "Let's talk about this later. Let's see if my plan works first?"

"What about Fang Min? He won't give up hibernation too, right?"

Wang Sen nodded calmly and continued to urge him to look at his transformation plan.

Although Shi Shaojie is also a core member of Qi Yiming's team, he has always been obsessed with research and hardly participates in the management of the fleet, so he didn't have a good way to stop Wang Sen and Fang Min after learning that they gave up the hibernation plan.

He could only pray that the two of them would not have any bad ideas.

After a long pause, Shi Shaojie finally picked up Wang Sen's plan and read it.

"You want to expand the three giant spaceships?"

Wang Sen nodded: "Renovate those small colony spaceships and connect them directly to the three colony spaceships. This way, the amount of work will be much smaller than the previous plan."

Shi Shaojie nodded while looking at Wang Sen's renovation plan.

Wang Sen's renovation plan is indeed more feasible than Qi Yiming's previous plan. First of all, the construction difficulty is much lower.

You only need to build some docking ports on the three giant colony spaceships.

"The Academy of Sciences will help you with a construction drawing. I think your plan is not just to connect the small colony spacecraft to the three giant spacecraft."

"Yes, I also want to connect the three giant spacecraft together in the later stage to make them a whole. Then on this basis, expand the size of the spacecraft so that our fleet can accommodate more people."

Shi Shaojie thought about it, nodded and said to Wang Sen: "I will arrange for someone to design the drawings for the follow-up plan." Then he looked at Wang Sen with worried eyes: "You..."

Wang Sen knew what Shi Shaojie was going to say, he smiled and patted Shi Shaojie on the shoulder: "Don't worry, we will not affect Mr. Qi's plan, just help him optimize it, and Fang Min and I have discussed it. The two of us will wake up the next group of on-duty personnel before they become confused and transfer power."

Shi Shaojie just sighed: "I hope you can do what you say." Then Shi Shaojie turned and walked towards his laboratory.

A few days later, the preliminary construction drawings of the transformation were handed over to Wang Sen.

The construction plan is very simple, which is to select some points on the hulls of the three giant spacecraft that do not affect the mechanical structure of the spacecraft and isolate them from the inside first.

These works can be carried out during the fleet's jump voyage, so the renovation work started quickly under Wang Sen's deployment.

When the fleet arrived at the rest point again, the interior renovation plan of the three spacecraft had been preliminarily completed.

As for the external renovation, due to the short rest time, only one docking port can be renovated at a time, but there is still a long time, so they are not in a hurry.

Time flies, 110 years later...

Wang Sen is alone, hunched in front of the giant hanging window of Hope, looking at the scene outside the spacecraft.

At this time, the spacecraft is completely different from what it used to be.

There are hundreds of small colony spacecrafts of various shapes connected to the outside of Hope.

Except for the living function, all other functions of these colony spacecrafts have been removed.

In addition to building more living space, the vacant space has also been greened to a certain extent, and even some small fountains have been built.

The internal environment has been greatly improved, and in some ways it is even more comfortable than people living in giant colony spacecrafts.

The three giant spacecrafts have been connected by huge passages.

People living in each colony spacecraft can go to other spacecrafts to work or visit through these passages, which is much freer than their previous life.

There are bigger projects going on outside the three spacecraft.

Especially for Hope, the first phase of the expansion project is nearing completion.

There is a large entertainment center planned by Wang Sen, which can accommodate 300,000 people for entertainment activities at the same time after completion.

The subsequent plan is to gradually reduce the entertainment facilities in each residential area and concentrate them in this expansion area, so that some space can be freed up to build residential areas.

Since the transformation plan began, Fang Min has gradually relaxed the birth policy.

The population also entered a period of positive growth 22 years ago, and even every few years there will be a baby boom in the fleet.

Wang Sen looked at all this and smiled with relief on his face.

Today he and Fang Min will jointly wake up Chen Cheng and Hao Chenqi to take over their work, and the two of them will enter deep sleep until they reach their destination.

Wang Sen fulfilled his promise to Shi Shaojie that year, and he would take the initiative to wake up the successor when they were too old to do their job.

Fang Min, who was more than 270 years old, came to Wang Sen in a suspended chair and looked at the scenery outside the suspended window for a long time without saying a word.

After a long while, he took the initiative to say: "Let's go, this is all we can do."

Wang Sen nodded: "After working day and night for so many years, we finally completed the original plan. As for the follow-up plan, we can only leave it to Chen Cheng and others."

With that, the two of them walked towards the hibernation center with the help of the staff.
