Pan Galactic Age

Chapter 167 Fengchuan Merchant Alliance
Xiao Cheng smiled knowingly when he heard the words, and poured out the first cup of tea skillfully while pinching the delicate handle of the teapot: "Well, that is our strategically important place, and there must be no mistakes, and we must not let any Outsiders know that Lao Wu will handle this matter in person, so I still trust him."

Leaning over to make tea, he gently pushed a teacup in front of Fanas: "However, with so many people leaving, we don't have enough people in our base right now."

"It's a bit of a shortage... 600 frigates are basically in short supply, but the robots developed by the leader are highly intelligent. After a period of time, they can be used." Fanas said, suddenly pursed his lips and smiled. He smiled, "Actually, this is not bad. The internal conflicts in the starship that gave us such a headache in the past seem to have reduced a lot now."

Xiao Cheng took a sip and put down his teacup: "There's nothing we can do about it. We're developing faster, and we can't recruit that many people for a while—we can't have everyone, maybe we'll have pure robots in the future." The manipulative starship has appeared!"

"A starship controlled purely by robots?" Fanas showed hesitation on his face, "If there is strong electromagnetic interference from the enemy... I'm afraid the robots are still useless."

"Haha! This is not yet possible. There is a kind of bionic robot that is not affected by the electromagnetic environment, but there are still many technical difficulties that need to be overcome. It is too early to talk about this now." Xiao Cheng laughed, and then called out The star map was unfolded in front of the two of them, and they said with a straight look, "Okay! Let's see what's going on in this wasteland star field."

You can hear the name of the wasteland star field. That star field is also a relatively barren star field, but it is much stronger than the chaotic star field. Because there are many planets with scarce resources there, the mining industry is very developed. Mineral products are exported to [-] star fields and surrounding small countries. As the largest force in the wasteland star field, Fengchuan Merchant Alliance, they control about half of the area, and the other half is controlled by seven or eight small merchant alliances. It became a wasteland alliance to fight against the Fengchuan Merchant Alliance who had always wanted to unify the wasteland star field, but they had many internal conflicts and mutual suspicion, which led to the dispersion of forces and could not really unite as one.

But even so, as long as there is a slight change in the Fengchuan Merchant Alliance, they will still be able to gather strength to contend with the Fengchuan Merchant Alliance-of course, a large part of the reason is that the forces of the Chaotic Starfield Star Thief Group were eyeing the border and restrained them. Most of the troops of the Fengchuan Merchant Alliance, so that the Fengchuan Merchant Alliance has never dared to gather all its troops to wipe out these "hateful" small forces.

In terms of economic exchanges, since the minerals produced by these small forces are basically sold to a small neighboring country named Estal Federation, they are relatively independent economically and are not restricted by the Fengchuan Business Alliance. It's not like they are eager to open up a safe trade channel to the other seventeen star fields.

This time the Fengchuan Merchant Alliance sent the letter of request. It was really helpless. Originally, these big merchants originally thought that after this battle, the forces of the Chaotic Star Field Star Bandit Group collapsed. After completing the unification of the Wasteland Star Field, who knew that some members of the star bandits who had fled came together again and chose the Wasteland Star Field, taking advantage of the small number of people and no strongholds, running around and committing crimes in the area controlled by the Fengchuan Merchant Alliance.

Just these one or two hundred small frigates made their army look ashamed, and now there is really nothing they can do, so they want Xiao Chenglai to help them solve this problem.In their eyes, since Xiao Cheng was able to tame these rebellious outlaws for his own use, and also successfully wiped out a star bandit group with almost twice the number of warships as him with weak strikes, he was in the middle of dealing with the star bandits. In fact, Xiao Cheng must have his own unique methods and methods.

"Well, I think we should send troops to help them solve this problem." Fanas said without hesitation after glancing at the star map.

"Oh? Tell me." Seeing that she and Nuwa had the same thoughts, Xiao Cheng couldn't help being curious.

"As a force that was often robbed by us, I can say that I know the wasteland star field well." Fanas stretched out his jade finger and tapped it lightly, "The behavior of these wandering star robbers is exactly the same as ours back then. I'm [-]% sure to catch them all."

"Moreover, in the wasteland star field, we have built several secret small temporary supply warehouses, and they are very likely to hide there." Fanas pointed to several locations in the wasteland star field, "However, since the Star Thief Group After falling apart, these strongholds should have been discovered by the people of Fengchuan Business Alliance, but they never mentioned this matter, which is very interesting."

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng stroked his chin and said slowly: "You mean...someone inside them has concealed relevant information? But is this beneficial to them? Being robbed by star thieves, according to their Fengchuan Business Alliance According to the law, all losses are shared equally by everyone, who would do such a thing that harms others and does not benefit oneself..."

"Boss, although the Fengchuan Chamber of Commerce is strong, it is not monolithic." Fanas chuckled, "The Fengchuan Chamber of Commerce is a collection of five large commercial groups. The event was collectively voted on, but in fact, with the rapid expansion of the power of the Ode Group in recent years, the most powerful Ode Group is the leader in all matters, and the chairman of the Hu Ming Mining Company, who ranks second in strength, is low-key. He does not participate in any power competition, as long as it is a decision made by the Ode Group, he will generally express his support..."

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng's heart was moved. Although he heard that the company of Madman Ling in the wasteland star field is very strong, he did not expect to be able to rank second, and now it seems that this so-called low-key is just a deception. I just don't want to make too much publicity, because the "Wind Star Thief Group" in the Chaotic Star Field is a well-known battle-crazed leader who loves to show off. I didn't expect that he could be so low-key in the Wasteland Star Field. This person is really very scheming Deep...

"...Although the third-ranked Hengfei Mining Company and the fourth-ranked Triple Crown Freight Group are dissatisfied, but the combined capital of the two of them is less than half of the Ode Group, so we have to follow their wishes Now, as for the fifth-ranked Zhao’s Arms Group, which is the main supplier of Fengchuan Merchant Alliance’s military equipment, it’s also very low-key.” Fanas talked eloquently.

"Wait, can you tell me more about the Fengchuan Merchant Alliance's army? I remember that I have seen a few people from the Wasteland Starfield Army. They don't seem to be serving these large groups... "Xiao Cheng asked with some doubts.

"People who don't understand the political ecology of the wasteland star field will naturally have many questions." Fanas smiled slightly, "The army of the wasteland star field Fengchuan business alliance exists independently of each group, and they obey the orders of the business alliance consultative council This is also to prevent a certain group from dominating the power of one family. The funds for maintaining the army are shared by the five families in a ratio of 3:2:1:1:1. On weekdays, the army Also responsible for the security tasks of each group.”

Xiao Cheng nodded thoughtfully: "So it's like this..."

"And the official dispatched to the Chaotic Star Field Joint Governance Committee is from Hengfei Mining Company, and I am afraid that this guy is also the one who concealed the information." Fanas expressed some of his views, "And it is said that in recent years The Hengfei Mining Company and the Triple Crown Freight Group have a tendency to form an alliance, and they have secretly attracted many members of the army, and I am afraid that some of them are very tricky..."

"According to your analysis, we should avoid this conspiracy vortex, why should we participate in it?" Xiao Cheng frowned, he didn't like the feeling of being taken advantage of.

"This time, the Fengchuan Business Alliance made the relevant request under the guise of the results of the Supreme Consultative Council meeting, which means that it is very likely that this is actually a request for help from the Oude Group." Fanas's eyes were burning, very After careful analysis, it seems that she has checked a lot of relevant information in the past two days.
