Shadows of the Deep Space-Chapter 832 - 389 Stingy (Five-in-One)_3

Of course, there are three people who are exceptions, and they are the three Vice Chairmen, because they represent different factions, and they are appointed by the Council Chairman.

Therefore, even if their political achievements are terrible, they can still keep their positions stable.

No one else can escape this fate.

If council members don’t meet the requirements, they retire; if military personnel don’t, they are forced to retire.

Of course, Okens would never tell Su Ming these things.

"Lord Okens, you flatter me. The successful resolution of this issue was thanks to everyone’s collaboration. I’ve organized all the reports concerning the Star Storage operation." fгeewebnovёl.com

Su Ming picked up the report and handed it to Okens.

"Hmm, explain the specific situation to me in detail!"

Okens took the report and said to Su Ming.

"Alright!"

Su Ming earnestly began explaining the specific situation to Okens.

Several hours later.

Su Ming let out a long breath and said.

"That’s roughly the situation."

Okens looked at Su Ming in shock after hearing this.

"You mean the Insect Star is actually a Level 5 Rich Ore Star? And it has a very rich content?"

"Yeah, and there’s a possibility that it contains Eternal Metal components."

Su Ming instinctively replied.

"Oh my! Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Handing it over to Omid just like that is such a loss."

Okens said, clutching his heart in regret, feeling as if his heart was bleeding.

Hearing this, Su Ming smiled and said to Okens.

"Lord Okens, don’t worry, when I handed it over to His Highness Omid, I specifically instructed him that this Mining Star belongs to the Federation and must be returned to the Federation afterward."

"Great, that’s just like you, haha!"

Okens’ expression instantly changed, laughing happily.

"Thank you for the praise, my lord."

"Don’t be modest, you really did a great job. With this Mining Star, the Federation’s finances for the year are secured. You know, the Federation has been facing a deficit for decades."

"Haha...."

Upon hearing this, Su Ming also felt awkward, realizing just how poor the Federation’s finances were.

"Su Ming, rest assured, I will ensure you’re reported for the highest possible military merit. I’ll report the matter to the council and have them commend you properly. But there’s one thing that’s a pity."

Okens said halfway, his expression turning slightly unnatural.

"A pity?"

"Sigh, the pity is that I was in charge this time, and my authority is limited. There’s a cap on the military merits I can report for you. It would have been better if Lord Galcks led this team."

"It’s fine, I understand."

Su Ming replied calmly upon hearing this.

As expected, reporting for military merit heavily depends on who reports it; the higher the position, the more one can report.

"As long as you understand, that’s good. But don’t worry, if you have anything in the future, come to me. I’ll definitely help you with what I can."

Okens promised Su Ming.

"Thank you, Lord City Master."

"No need to be so polite."

"It’s getting late, I’ll take my leave first."

Su Ming politely replied.

"I’ll see you off!"

Vice City Lord Okens got up and personally escorted Su Ming out of the room.

----------------------------------------

The next afternoon.

Su Ming and others all gathered in the lounge hall.

"Su Ming, how did it go?"

"Did Lord Okens say anything after reading the reports last night?"

...

Su Yuan and others gathered around Su Ming, eagerly asking.

Su Ming looked at their expectant faces and replied with a wry smile.

"Listen, I’ve done my best to speak highly for each of you, and I’ve written the reports extravagantly, but don’t get your hopes up too much!"

"Ah, why?"

Su Yuan and others asked, puzzled.

Su Ming couldn’t explain much and could only smile bitterly and say.

"The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment."

"Alright."

Hearing Su Ming’s words, the hearts of Su Yuan and others felt half-chilled.

At this moment, Okens came over with hands behind his back, followed by subordinates carrying a stack of report filing envelopes.

Su Yuan and others saw Okens approaching and hurriedly stood straight, greeting him.

"Lord Okens!"

Okens stood in front of them, smiling broadly.

"Everyone is here, huh? Thank you for your hard work during the Star Storage operation. These are your report forms, take one each. You can choose to submit them back to the Federation yourself or mail them in! Of course, rest assured, I’ll speak to the review group to make sure they don’t deduct your military points as much as possible."

Okens said, smiling broadly.

"Thank you, Lord Okens."

Zhou Mu and others eagerly opened their envelopes after receiving them, immediately pulling out the reports to check.

"I actually got 1000 points, haha!"

"I got 900 points!"

...

Su Ming watched their joyous expressions, then opened his own envelope to take a look.

Upon seeing the report stated 3000 military merit points, his mouth twitched slightly.

Although he was mentally prepared, the military merits were pathetically low.

If it were the Legion Commander reporting, Su Ming would bet that the military merit points reported would be at least double, no less than 6000 points.

"Su Ming, how many points do you have?"

Su Yuan and others, having seen theirs, asked Su Ming, curious.

"3000 points."

Su Ming replied with a calm expression.

"Wow, 3000 points, amazing!"

Su Yuan and others said, shocked.

"It’s alright."

Su Ming felt a bit awkward seeing their exaggerated reactions.

But on second thought, their reaction was understandable.

Su Ming remembered Su Yuan mentioning that his largest single batch of military merit points was only 500, so 3000 points was indeed excessive for them.
