To be honest, I haven't heard such a joke in Xia Ye for a long time.
Therefore, he felt that he needed to make Star-Lord recall the fear he felt when he was dominated by him.
Star-Lord immediately raised his hands: "We should calm down, it's just a joke, right?"
Xia Zhiye glared at him: "This is business, answer me."
"Are you planning to recruit Yondu?" Star-Lord frowned and pondered for a moment, then shook his head. "It's difficult. The plunderers will not succumb to anyone's power. You can kill them all, but don't try to control them. And, to put it bluntly, they only recognize money. Short-term cooperation is fine, asking them to complete tasks and exchanging things for money is also fine. But if you plan to give them a sum of money every month and ask them to work for you, this is basically an impossible task. They are used to freedom and will not listen to anyone's orders!"
This is pertinent. Xia Zhiye rubbed his forehead with a headache: "I understand, so this is not my goal. I also want a short time. The most important thing is... I have no money."
All plans require time to prepare, whether it is Coulson, Tony's ultra-long-distance communication system, or some other messy things, all of them take time.
But Thanos will definitely not give his side more time to prepare.
The sooner you develop your own technology, the greater advantages you can gain.
Therefore, at this stage, Xia Zhiye believes that if he can reach a short-term cooperation with Yondu through a batch of materials other than money, it may be able to fill the gap during the period when Coulson arrives.
If we can complete the new type of metal faster, we will have more confidence in the future.
“Is this important?”
Star-Lord was a little worried when he saw Xia Zhiye's gloomy face. He thought for a moment and said, "The most important things for the plunderers to travel around the universe are money and weapons. If you don't have money, what about weapons?"
Xia Zhiye thought about it for a while, then shook his head: "I can't give Yongdu any super-standard weapons, because a certain weapons genius here has sworn that he will never do arms business again."
Tony is indeed no longer engaged in arms trade now. Stark Group has begun to carry out new projects in the direction of energy development, and the results are remarkable, no worse than when it was engaged in arms trade.
Star-Lord smiled and said, "If it doesn't exceed the standard, it's just scrap metal. There is never a shortage of lethal weapons in this universe."
This is another true statement.
Every civilization in this universe possesses many super-standard weapons. The predators roam the universe and are well-informed. The weapons in their hands are already extremely extraordinary, and it is very difficult for them to take ordinary weapons seriously.
I thought about other ways, but they didn't work.
Xia Zhiye was originally thinking about whether he could get something for nothing by using a few conditions to get Yongdu to agree to something.
But the problem is that predators are a very pragmatic group of people.
They will only be driven when tangible benefits are in front of them. Otherwise, everything you say is nonsense and in vain.
The two people stood here and looked at each other, then finally went their separate ways.
Star-Lord continued to drink and strolled around on a summer night, and happened to run into Yondu head-on.
"Hey, my friend, there seem to be a lot of new faces on the ship, and none of them look easy to mess with. If it weren't for our friendship, I would almost think you were going to kill me and replace me."
Yondu made jokes that didn't seem like jokes.
This old alien who has traveled across the universe and is cunning and witty, Xia Zhiye doesn't think that this guy will show his gentleness to anyone except Star-Lord.
Of course, even Star-Lord only realized this person's care and love for him before he died.
When he thought of this, Xia Zhiye's eyes suddenly lit up. Could he make use of Star-Lord to do something
But the thought only flashed through his mind before he rejected it.
Taking advantage of this is too despicable. If Star-Lord finds out in the future, we will no longer be friends.
"Why do I feel like you seem to be troubled by something?"
Yongdu looked at Xia Zhiye's changing expressions and asked enthusiastically.
Xia Zhiye stared at him for a while, then shrugged and said, "If I tell you that I'm trying to find a way to get you to help me with something, will you suddenly feel happy and help me unconditionally?"
"Hahaha."
Yondu laughed, "You really know how to joke with my friend."
Xia Zhiye nodded and was about to leave when he heard Yongdu say, "What do you want me to help you with?"
"Something that's pretty simple for you, collecting some rocks from abandoned planets."
"It's not difficult. Give me a sample and we can clean up a whole warehouse of stones." Yongdu said, "But the problem is that I can't do anything for you unconditionally."
Xia Zhiye glanced at Yongdu and suddenly felt that his behavior seemed to be a turning point: "What do you want me to pay?"
"Come with me." Yongdu said, "We may need to have a good talk about this matter."
Following Yongdu all the way to his room, the two talked in the room for ten minutes, and then Xia Zhiye came out.
His expression was a little strange for a moment, and finally he shook his head helplessly: "He is closer than our own children."
Yondu did not ask Xia Zhiye why he wanted this kind of stone, but just put forward a condition, hoping that Xia Ye would be able to stand up and help Star-Lord when he encountered difficulties, just like he did this time.
And, this matter must never be told to Star-Lord!
"If this isn't love, tut tut tut..."
When Xia Zhiye passed by the hall and saw Star-Lord drinking, he couldn't help but look at him several more times.
The matter was resolved in a strange way, and Xia Ye went to find Tony and Banner.
The two were studying the signal amplifier made by Star-Lord and were having a very heated discussion.
"It's settled."
Xia Zhiye told Yongdu about the situation.
Tony and Banner looked at each other, and then Tony said, "We have found an opportunity in ultra-long-distance communication. To be honest, although he is much worse than me in other aspects, Star-Lord is really amazing in terms of imagination. He can actually think of using the principle of the teleportation array to transmit sound over ultra-long distances! This is simply a genius idea... I even know what business I should do in the universe!"
Xia Zhiye glanced at the signal amplifier and said, "You plan to communicate in space...? Is this possible?" (To be continued)
