the days before i bought the galaxy

In November 1212 of the Galactic Calendar, Warren Slim, the president of the Slim Chamber of Commerce, set sail again for the White City of Bethel.This time he left the staff officer Charlie in charge of logistics, and his adjutant Odin each led a fleet to set off.Along the way, Warren's fleet didn't stop anywhere, and he used the space folding technology directly after departure.While Odin sailed on a secret mission, his real mission was to find several trade routes for Warren suitable for smuggling.If all goes well, he will join Warren at Bethel in eight months.

This time, Warren's luck was not bad. Since the space folding completion point was very close to Bethel, the Xiaguang fleet reached its destination in only one and a half months.When he landed at the main airport, he was besieged by a large number of reporters.For residents of Bethel, the name Warren Slim is much louder than it was the last time he was here.A man who made the archbishop come all the way to the rescue, a man who dared to declare war on the silver shield, no matter what, he gave Warren a strange halo.Some devout believers of the Holy Light even regarded him as a great figure in the prophecy and worshiped him.

After spending some effort to get rid of the reporter, Warren and his party stayed at the headquarters of the former Leslie Chamber of Commerce.Here he meets an unexpected person.

"Miss Millet wasn't such a lifeless person before, she was such a kind person when she was a child, she was a little angel to all of us." Schiller, a former adjutant of the Lesley Chamber of Commerce, told Warren. "I don't think we should It was a wrong decision to send her to the pronuclear area, the human beings in that place have been completely decayed and depraved, and they can't see the existence of humanity at all."

Schiller looks 20 years older than he was six months ago.Warren understands that only mental torture can cause such a result, and it seems that Millet's departure has dealt a great blow to him.

"I want to atone for Miss Millet, who caused the death of so many innocent people. So please accept my services." Schiller stared at Warren with cloudy eyes.

"I'm sorry, but I can't accept that you join the Slim family for the purpose of atonement." Warren smiled and said, "But you are right, people in the pronuclear zone have indeed lost their human nature, and war and death are very important to the Slim family." It’s just a numbers game for them, and wealth is the ultimate goal they’re chasing. My mission is to change that.”

The old adjutant's lips trembled, and he was silent for a long time before speaking again: "I also want to see this change in my lifetime. If it is for such a reason, can you accept it?"

"Welcome to the Slim family." Warren held out his hand to Schiller, "I need your contacts in Bethel, and I will arrange a suitable job for you." He understood that if the old man was not found With a new fulcrum to live on, his life will soon come to an end.

"thanks……"

Schiller looked at the back of Warren leaving, and a feeling suddenly rose in his heart. The worst thing Mirit Leslie has ever done is probably not being able to see this man's heart clearly.

In the days that followed, Warren was surprised to find that the sales of their goods in Bethel were not affected by the Silver Shield as they were elsewhere.On the one hand, this is because Bethel advocates the two principles of fairness and justice, and few people can manipulate the market here; contact him in name.

In response to this situation, Warren and Bogo carefully analyzed the market environment and concluded that the transaction route between Hongdu and Bethel should become the main profit route for the Slim Chamber of Commerce in the future.It made Warren feel more certain about the future.

"Administrator's reply arrived. Next Tuesday morning, he will make time to see you alone." Blue sent a message to the screen in front of Warren.

Warren: "When is the asset auction?"

"From next Wednesday to next Friday, Jacques' most important asset will be auctioned next Friday."

"That's not too late." Warren pursed his lips. "Bogo, how much cash do we have?"

"Report to Your Excellency, Captain, we currently have 27 deep space crystals in cash."

"The total value of the Jacques Chamber of Commerce that was forced to auction is 40 deep-space crystals. If we want to eat them all, we still have a gap of 13 deep-space crystals. Considering possible accidents at the auction, we must at least Prepare another 15 deep-space crystals." Warren pondered for a moment, "Bogo, what did the bank say?"

"Report Captain, the funds we can get immediately through mortgage loans are 65000 deep space crystals. This number is already the upper limit. Silver Shield has a great influence in the financial world, and we can only find banks that have nothing to do with them. Negotiate."

Warren: "That means at least 85000 deep space crystals are needed."

"Warren, I don't think we need to take over the entire Yakel Chamber of Commerce. The business of the Yakel Chamber of Commerce is too complicated. If we eliminate the parts that are not of much use to us, we will have enough money on hand." Lan suggested.

"Honey, you don't understand." Warren said with a smile. "The effect I want to achieve is 'revenge.'"

Lan: "Revenge?"

"Don't forget, it was Jacques Ruddick who directly caused the defense of the Red City. I want everyone to see that I will use my way to retaliate against my enemies, and let them know that I am fighting against Slim It is best to be ready to meet my wrath when the family is the enemy. Only after this effect is achieved can I move on to the next move." Warren smiled cruelly, "I will find a way to solve the cash problem. .Lan, announce to the public that I want to eat the entire Yaker Chamber of Commerce."

Lan frowned: "That will cause the price to be deliberately raised."

"It doesn't matter, this is a good opportunity to help us identify potential enemies. The Slim family is going to rise in Bethel, how can we not get rid of a few early birds?"

"Yes, Warren."

-

There was only one item in the routine of Administrator Henry Wickham that remained constant for many years.Every morning from 05:30 to [-]:[-], he will definitely appear in the garden of the mansion, tending those plants that he loves.During this time, he usually doesn't let anyone near him, because this is also when he thinks.But today there is an exception.

"Henry..."

"Warren, you're here. This is the gift you gave me last time, and it's already blooming beautiful flowers!" In the beautiful circular greenhouse, the expression on the administrator's face relaxed a little.

"I'm sorry about Millet," Warren said sincerely.He believed that Millet's departure had dealt a heavy blow to Henry, and it was a very ironic betrayal for Henry, who had always wanted to take care of the younger generation.Because of his status, Henry may not express this kind of hurt, but this matter will probably stay in his heart for a long time.

"It's not your fault." The administrator shook his head. "Everyone has the right to choose a path. Millet just chose the path she wanted to take, even though it wasn't what I expected."

"I can see that you expect a lot from her." Warren walked to the administrator and watched him carefully loosen the soil with his hands.

"Maybe! It's also possible that I just shifted Will's expectations onto myself. After all, she is his most beloved daughter. Basically, no one knows that Will saved my life, and he never mentioned it himself. He It is such a person who obviously hates doing business, but when I said that energy should be the first industry to be guaranteed, he resolutely established the Leslie Chamber of Commerce. After he left, I always thought that I should achieve something for him." Henry There was no sadness or similar expression on Wickham's face, he just looked very confused.Warren felt deeply the man's restrained affection.

"As you said, Millet just chose the path she wanted to take." Warren patted the administrator on the shoulder, "Although what she did made me angry, I don't resent her. This is It was a battle of wisdom, I failed, and I must take this as a warning, nothing more."

"But you have indeed changed." Henry Wickham turned his head, stared into Warren's eyes and said, "I see darkness in you."

Warren smiled, and didn't take the pressure released by the administrator to heart: "Survival is the first priority. I must keep the Slim Chamber of Commerce alive, even if it uses any means."

The administrator couldn't help laughing: "Then you will eat your enemies like jackals."

"Maybe!" Warren shrugged. "If the opponent is a lion, I will gather more allies to eat it together."

Henry Wilhelm frowned: "Last time I suggested you not to be an enemy of Silver Shield."

"The situation has changed," Warren said with a smile. "I have declared war on the Silver Shield, and this war will continue until I or he falls. Are you going to no longer be allied with me because of this?"

The administrator shook his head: "No."

Warren couldn't help laughing.

"You came to me for funds, right? I heard that you plan to take over the Yakel Chamber of Commerce as a whole?"

"That's right, I want you to help me get a loan. In the next period of time, I will expand my strength in Bethel in order to establish the Free Chamber of Commerce Alliance. For this, I need a lot of funds. In the case of declaring war with Silver Shield , it was difficult for me to get enough loans from financial institutions.”

"It doesn't have to be so troublesome."

"what?"

Henry Wickham smiled: "I said that there is no need to go to a financial institution for a loan, I can lend you the money directly. In the taxation of the business circle, except for the part used for construction, the rest can be paid by The administrator is at his disposal. This money has been tacitly regarded as the private property of the administrator since a long time ago. I don't run power for myself like others, so this money has been kept as a reserve fund in Bethel. If you need it, I can lend you 50% of it."

Warren couldn't help being stunned: "How much is that?"

"5000 million deep space crystals."

"!!!"

"I should do something to express my determination to form an alliance with you, shouldn't I?" The administrator laughed happily.

At the beginning of 1213 in the Galactic Calendar, the folks in Bethel began to spread the news that Warren Slim was the administrator's agent. This made many people dispel the idea of ​​being an enemy of the Slim family, and more people began to wait and see. A business war between the Slim family and the financial magnate Silvershield family.Although there is a huge gap between the two chambers of commerce, the Slim family has a geographical advantage in the Bethel business circle.

In the short three months since then, the Slim family has rapidly risen in the Bethel business circle through acquisitions and mergers, and has become a large chamber of commerce with a scale of more than 1000 million deep space crystals!

The author has something to say: the last paragraph wap can't see is:

In the short three months since then, the Slim family has rapidly risen in the Bethel business circle through acquisitions and mergers, and has become a large chamber of commerce with a scale of more than 1000 million deep space crystals!

To explain the level of the chamber of commerce, the following units are all deep space crystals:

Small Chamber of Commerce 0-20w

Medium Chamber of Commerce 20w-1000w

Large chamber of commerce 1000w-10 billion

10 billion to 5 trillion (billion billion) for super large chambers of commerce

giant 5 mega-

After the Battle of the Red Capital, Warren's total assets were about 50. After receiving the support of the administrator, it jumped to tens of millions, but it was still quite far from the Silver Shield.The total assets of the entire Silver Shield family account for 1.5% of the total assets of all mankind, that is, 12 trillion deep-space crystals. They are well-deserved giants!
