But if Ren Zhong agrees very amicably and relinquishes power, it means he has made enough achievements on Source Star and is indeed tired and wants to take a break. It would then be ideal to go with the flow and let this esteemed Apostle take a good rest and enjoy the rare harvest and leisure within the Tracer colonization system.

After all, everyone knows he has two spouses on Source Star, and he has built up what is now the fourth largest enterprise, second only to Source Star Military Industry, Alson Group, and Mengdu Group, amassing quite a fortune.

People meticulously studied the development trajectory of Ren's Group after awakening early.

One cannot deny that Ren Zhong is indeed remarkable.

Throughout the development of Ren's Group, his people never penetrated into big cities; they only concentrated on counties and towns, establishing themselves among the peasant class, yet managed to earn so much wealth.

This indicates that Ren Zhong's subordinates further exploited the potential of Source Star fiercely over the last fifteen years.

In the original thoughts of the frozen Elder, these riches should have been buried with the peasants.

Moreover, the old icicles had also anticipated the next direction of Source Star Society.

Ren Zhong would surely leave most of the administrative functions within Ren's Group here in this peripheral colony.

In this way, Source Star civilization equals Ren Zhong's personal property.

In the future, if the Empire needs this colony or develops it massively to build a springboard, Ren Zhong's family will be the biggest winner.

This might be Ren Zhong's true purpose.

Otherwise, it is merely a C-level colony, what makes it worthy of receiving the rescue of such a high-ranking Imperial Apostle?

Overall, Ren Zhong yielded without any grudge, and now everyone is happy, seemingly satisfied.

Ren Zhong continued, "You are all professional Tracer administrators, so I am indeed not worried about the great migration. Over the years, your Nine Major Groups and my Ren's Group have basically completed the plan. We've already sorted out what to leave behind, what to take, how to maintain productivity for those low-level colonists after our departure, and how we keep long-range deterrence and control over Source Star."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Ying Feng, Fidina Locke, Bessodes Alson, Barton Augustus, and others began to report actively, detailing their respective arrangements and execution for their enterprises.

Clearly, after Ren Zhong relinquished power, everyone slightly restored their respect for him.

Ren Zhong expressed satisfaction with everyone's work, first praising them, then suddenly changing tone, saying, "According to the requirements of elders in my family, since I was sent to take charge of Source Star Colony's matters in times of crisis, naturally I should oversee it entirely. But I understand your demands, so I don't mind making some concessions. After all, my achievements are already numerous, and there is no need to account to the ministers of the Colonization Department. However, I have to account for my family. You want me to vacation, which is fine by me. But I must at least find a position that has overarching authority. Do you understand what I mean?"

Ma Zhongfei and others exchanged glances, waiting for Ren Zhong's next statement.

"Although my Ren's Group has basically achieved overarching control, my scope of control is limited to peasants, not involving Citizens. So, I believe I should at least take on the role of Marshal of the Great Migration Armed Fleet, which would mean overseeing the entire situation like you. Besides, wartime command is inherently a privilege of mine as an Imperial Apostle. Isn't that reasonable?"

While saying this, Ren Zhong's gaze settled on Ying Feng's face.

Ying Feng felt a jolt in his heart and instinctively turned his face away, not daring to meet Ren Zhong's gaze.

But ultimately, there is no escape and an explanation must be given.

Ying Feng is the original creator of the Great Migration Armed Fleet and the person directly controlling the Military Department alongside the Business Association.

Although the appointment of the Marshal requires a vote from nine people, Ying Feng's attitude is indeed the most crucial.

After pondering for a moment, considering the imminent regaining of support from the "Net" and restoring full power, Ying Feng said with some reluctance, "Reporting to you, Apostle, according to our previous plan, the Marshal of the Great Migration Armed Fleet would be appointed as the contemporary leader of Source Star Military Industry, Ying Ye. Meanwhile, Ying Ye would also be restrained by the think tank within the Ice Sealing Army. Both parties need to report directly to us and be under our control."
