"Sister Ruyue, why...why am I wearing this kind of dress?" Qin Xiaolei looked at the white lace dress she was wearing.

Although it falls into the category of princess dresses, this dress is just too short, with such a low neckline and exposed fair skin at the back, etc.

Qin Xiaolei's cheeks flushed slightly, and she kept trying to press down on the hem of her skirt with both hands.

"Your Highness, please think about who you are going to meet next."

That was a great contributor who helped you achieve your revenge and unify the Starry Empire.

Since we're facing a great contributor, we need to show some sincerity, right? Zhao Ruyue crossed her arms and looked with satisfaction at Qin Xiaolei, whom she had styled.

Although Qin Xiaolei's figure isn't particularly voluptuous, she still has room to develop further.

With Qin Xiaolei's status as an added advantage, coupled with the decisive battle outfit he had prepared for her.

I'm sure I can win over my stubborn, good-for-nothing brother.

To this day, Zhao Ruyue still believes that Qin Xiaolei is the best choice for her younger brother, no matter how many women he may have in the future.

Qin Xiaolei must be the first!

"But...but...I feel...a draft down there." Qin Xiaolei blushed, as if she were about to bleed.

Not only the clothes she wore, but even the clothes underneath were personally selected by Zhao Ruyue.

"Cough cough cough... That's not important." Zhao Ruyue gave an encouraging smile.

"Lord of the Dragonflight pays his respects."

The voices of female guards could be heard from outside the hall.

"I...I...I think I'll go change my clothes." Qin Xiaolei tried to escape.

But Zhao Ruyue pressed down on her shoulders and made her sit in a chair.

"Let Zhao Chen come in directly," Zhao Ruyue called out to the outside.

As the footsteps drew closer, Qin Xiaolei felt as if she had been thrown into a vat of boiling oil.

Most importantly, she is now sitting on what appears to be a temporary throne, with no obstructions in front of her.

Lord Zhao Chen walked up to her, and if she wasn't careful, she might see something.

To prevent this from happening, Qin Xiaolei could only pull her legs together and press her skirt down tightly with both hands.

"Your Highness, Eldest Sister." Zhao Chen walked up to her, looking at Qin Xiaolei with her head down and her eldest sister Zhao Ruyue with a smile on her face.

"Zhao Chen, although you have a prominent status now, you still need to show proper etiquette when you meet Her Highness the Princess," Zhao Ruyue said, looking at Zhao Chen with a half-smile.

Zhao Chen was taken aback. After thinking for a moment, he decided to give his older sister face.

He prepared to kneel on one knee, placed his right hand on his chest, and bowed to Qin Xiaolei.

"No! No! No! No need for the formalities! No need for the formalities!" Qin Xiaolei said, almost in tears.

Standing, he can still shield himself, but if Zhao Chen kneels on one knee, from that angle...

Qin Xiaolei would probably just want to crawl into a hole and disappear.

Seeing Qin Xiaolei's state, Zhao Ruyue knew she couldn't push her too hard. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Brother, I was just kidding."

"This isn't a formal occasion, there's no need for these formalities," Zhao Ruyue said with a smile.

Zhao Chen was completely bewildered, having no idea what his older sister was up to.

“Then we can start talking,” Zhao Chen said, taking the initiative.

"Yes! Let's talk business! Let's talk business!"

"Let's talk somewhere else." Qin Xiaolei wanted to suggest moving to the conference room, where at least there would be a conference table to provide some privacy.

"There's no need for all that trouble, let's just stay here." Zhao Ruyue pressed down on Qin Xiaolei's shoulders.

If they moved to the conference room, how could she let her younger brother admire the little princess's figure? She refused to believe that there was a man in the world who didn't like beautiful women.

My dear brother, I've practically 'packaged' the little princess and delivered her to you, so you'd better live up to my expectations.

"Cough cough cough... The Starry Empire is now basically unified, but considering some vacant positions and some resource allocation issues, it needs to be redefined."

There is also the work of postwar recovery.

This civil war has depleted the national treasury of our Starry Empire, causing heavy losses in various regions and also inflicting considerable damage on the people.

If we cannot recover in a short period of time, it will have a huge impact on our Starry Empire.

Currently, some minor rebellions and disputes have already emerged in various places. Qin Xiaolei's expression turned serious when she spoke of these important matters.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Ruyue's lips curled up slightly.

Qin Xiaolei's clothes are one thing, but think about it, a beautiful woman wearing such clothes, with a serious expression in front of you, isn't that exciting?

Zhao Ruyue squinted at Zhao Chen opposite her.

Sure enough, there was a moment of absent-mindedness in Zhao Chen's eyes.

Men, you know how to handle them.

Zhao Chen's brief moment of distraction wasn't what Zhao Ruyue was thinking, but rather how to 'extort' the little princess in front of him.

The little princess in front of him was like a cake with no protection, and he held a knife in his hand. He only needed to say a word to decide how to divide her up.

She had absolutely no chance to resist.

"I already have several plans for these matters."

First, there's the issue you mentioned, where the civil war led to political instability and widespread public discontent in the Starry Empire.

These are easy to solve. In fact, most people want very simple things: a job, an income, three meals a day, a comfortable living environment, and a glimmer of hope for the future.

In terms of work, our Beiyan Group will establish subsidiaries in various star systems. These subsidiaries will undertake some of the parts processing work for the interstellar warship production, which is commonly known as outsourcing.

Our Beiyan Group outsources the production of these parts to these subsidiaries, which naturally creates a large number of jobs.

The military industry has always been one of the pillars of the economy.

However, in order to sell the interstellar warships manufactured by the Beiyan Group, the Beiyan Group hopes to obtain a promise from the future royal family of the Star Glory Empire.

Over the next fifty years, at least 70% of the military procurement orders for the Starry Empire's Imperial Army will be handled by the Beiyan Group.

Of course, the interstellar warships provided by the Beiyan Group will certainly meet the needs of the Starshine Empire's military.

With the Dragon Legion's guarantee, everyone should have no worries. Zhao Chen tossed a stone onto the calm lake.

Zhao Ruyue raised an eyebrow, looking at Zhao Chen, who had a faint smile on his face.

It was as if a monster from the abyss had reached out its tentacles, gradually binding the Starry Empire that belonged to the little princess.

Zhao Chen's suggestion seemed to be a win-win situation.

In reality, this would allow the Beiyan Group to completely control the military industrial chain of the Xingyao Empire!

This allows each star region of the Starry Empire to continuously generate revenue for the Northern Goose Group, which in turn replenishes the Starry Empire, forming a closed-loop military-industrial complex within the Starry Empire.

This will make Beiyan Group the largest military industrial enterprise in the Xingyao Empire over the next thirty years!

There is none other than this!
