Two weeks later, a fleet numbering nearly a thousand slowly entered Zhongzhou Star and landed on the open sea. On the huge ship that greeted the fleet on the sea were the family members and direct retainers led by Donovan. Standing at the bow of the ship, Donovan couldn't help frowning and looking up at the sky after receiving the number of battleships reported by the control tower. He couldn't figure out what Chen Kang was doing with so many warships. He ordered 30 for himself, while his younger brother ordered 20 X battleships. , even including the six ships ordered by the three elders of my uncle, it is only 56 ships. Even if Chen Kang wanted to bring several transport ships to bring back the delivery crew, it would be impossible to have so many more warships. Could it be...
Thinking of this, Donovan looked not far behind, and found that Tang Long was looking at the sky excitedly, and couldn't help snorting, he knew why Chen Kang brought so many warships, and Tang Long also bought a batch What about battleships? At first, Donovan was a little worried about whether Tang Long bought so many warships because he wanted to rebel, but when he thought that Tang Long didn't have any soldiers to drive the warships, he couldn't help but feel relieved, and muttered: "Hmph, spending money like this without a foundation, When the one trillion yuan is used up, it’s up to you what to do!” I ignored it.
Chen Kang's fleet slowly landed on the sea. Before landing, people had already seen that this fleet was composed of 76 X-rank warships, 400 high-level transport ships, and 500 civilian giant cargo ships. Seeing these, Donovan immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Tang Long had purchased 20 X battleships and 400 transport ships this time. In this way, Tang Long already has 23 X battleships and 440 advanced transport ships. Although Tang Long is powerful in force, but he has 40 X battleships and his younger brother also has 30 X battleships. Compared with 70 and 23 troops, there is no need to be afraid of Tang Long's rebellion. As for the 440 high-level transport ships, Donovan didn't pay much attention to them. But if he knew that these 400 high-level transport ships were full of combat supplies, his eyes would be widened.
In fact, not only Donovan doesn't pay attention to transport ships, but the forces in the nearby star field don't pay attention to transport ships either. Because they are all fighting near the administrative star, the supply is very convenient. In this case, why bring a transport ship without combat capability? It's better to use the money to buy a transport ship to buy a battleship to compare and calculate.
Tang Long stared at Chen Kang and Donnawen as they handed over the warships. After finally waiting for them to hand over, he immediately rushed forward excitedly. And those retainers who followed their master soon discovered that there were still 20 X battleships and 400 high-level transport ships on the sea that had not been handed over. They all looked around suspiciously, and when they saw Tang Long running forward, their hearts suddenly jumped. Jump, it turns out that these belong to Tang Long, so isn't Tang Long the real third in the family's force
Tang Haidong who came with his father realized this, looked at Tang Long with bright eyes, and secretly planned how to improve his friendship with Tang Long later. Tang Haidong is very aware of how much the family's third military force can help him. Tang Hainan, who was standing next to his elder brother, frowned and looked at Tang Long and then at Tang Haidong. He had already seen from his elder brother's eyes that his elder brother wanted to win over Tang Long. Regarding this point, he could only sigh helplessly. He hated Tang Long because of Tang Long's execution of his retainers, and told his retainers what he hated about Tang Long, hoping that those retainers could alienate Tang Long.
Of course, the result was ideal. Although Tang Long's two retainers visited other retainers everywhere to win the relationship, except for Tang Long's direct retainers, the other retainers avoided Tang Long and did not associate with him. But who knew that Tang Long could acquire such a powerful force. Just by looking at those vassals with shining eyes, one could tell what they were thinking. It seemed that he had accidentally offended a great vassal!
In fact, Tang Hainan was too worried. Although the rumors that Tang Hainan hated Tang Long also flowed into Tang Long's ears, and at the same time, other lords' indifference to their family had been reported to Tang Long by his retainers, but Tang Long was a bit self-centered. The guy in the center didn't care at all. He ordered his retainers to win people over on a whim, and now he has long forgotten that he had assigned such a task to his retainers.
Seeing Tang Long running over, Chen Kang hurriedly apologized to Tang Nawen, then smiled at Tang Long and said, "Hello, Mr. Tang Long, the goods you asked for have been delivered, please check." An electronic board was handed over to Tang Long.
Although Tang Long wondered why Chen Kang had become so polite again, he didn't care too much. After browsing the electronic board casually, he handed it back to Chen Kang, and said anxiously, "Help me transport it to the seaside in my territory." After finishing speaking, he wanted to get on his battleship, but he quickly stopped, turned around and knelt down to Donovan and said, "My lord, please allow me to leave first."
Tang Nawen originally wanted to punish Tang Long for disobeying his boss, but when he saw that Tang Long had escaped, he could only groan inwardly, and nodded in agreement.
After boarding the battleship, Chen Kang smiled at Tang Long, "Fortunately, you are smart, otherwise Donovan would have detained you for disobedience to the superior, and he would have confiscated your battleship fief."
Tang Long said with a dark smile: "Hehe, the old guy wants to catch my sore feet, but it's not that easy! As long as I treat him with respect, he won't dare to punish me at the risk of making all the retainers feel bad."
Chen Kang shook his head: "Even if he won't punish you face to face, he will find some reason to kill you. You have to be careful, as soon as your million ape soldiers show up, he will definitely attack you."
Tang Long nodded, and after thinking for a while, he asked Chen Kang: "By the way, I really don't understand, I have always treated that old guy with respect, and I am not too arrogant, let alone saying that I want to If he rebelled, why did he deal with me?"
Chen Kang rolled his eyes and said: "You still said that you are not arrogant, think about who would have one trillion Wulai coins in cash in their pockets, and would go to seek refuge with others. And if you seek refuge, you will seek refuge. It didn't take long to come to someone's place Just desperately buying arms to expand your own power, do you think which leader would not be careful against such subordinates?"
"Yeah?! Why didn't you tell me? You desperately asked me if I could buy a warship?" Tang Long looked at Chen Kang in surprise. He didn't expect that he had been watched by the Patriarch a long time ago, and he thought that he hadn't revealed any ambitions at all. Woolen cloth.
"Please, I'm an arms dealer, so of course I'm asking you if you want to buy a warship. Do you want me to ask you if you want to buy underwear? However, you don't have to worry too much. Donovan won't attack you for the time being. You should hurry up and increase your own. For the sake of power, it is best to find an opportunity to swallow Zhongzhou Star." Chen Kang said comfortingly. In fact, Chen Kang deliberately forced Tang Long to occupy Zhongzhou Star as soon as possible, because according to the insider report arranged by the general manager, several general managers were very happy during this period, and even secretly held banquets to celebrate, which is enough to show that their agents Man has acquired a certain power. The general manager had already started to get anxious, and gave himself a deadly order to let Tang Long have a certain amount of power within this year.
Hearing this, Tang Long looked at Chen Kang with weird eyes, which made Chen Kang feel uneasy and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there any problem?"
Tang Long's face darkened, and he asked in a cold tone: "Which side are you on? Why are you so enthusiastic about encouraging me to rebel?"
Chen Kang's heart twitched, thinking that something is wrong, this guy Tang Long saw that something was wrong with me. However, Chen Kang is not someone who has never seen the scene, and immediately smiled and said: "Hehe, let me tell you the truth, I encouraged you to rebel, but it was actually the company's intention. Don't be surprised, I told the company about your situation, The company, like me, believes that people like you, brother, should not be subordinated to others, but should be in the universe! Now our company is making a big gamble, betting that you can become a great man who unifies the universe! Hehe, Don't wonder why my company is so enthusiastic. In fact, in this universe, every arms company has its own goals to support. All companies are betting big, but my company is betting on you. As long as you unify If we enter the universe, then our company will become the largest arms company in the entire universe, and I will also become the largest arms dealer! I believe you will not let me lose the bet, right?" After speaking, Chen Kang carefully looked at Tang Long's face.
Tang Long frowned when he heard this. It seems that Sister Computer is right. This Chen Kang is really weird. He and his company actually think that they can unify the universe? Flattering is not like that, is it? At this moment, Tang Long has forgotten that he said the words of unifying the universe first. Tang Long thought to himself: "What the hell is this guy Chen Kang doing? There are so many people who are more capable than himself, why don't you bet on them and come to bet on me instead? Forget it, since he dares to bet on me, then I will see how much he can make It's cheap."
Thinking of this, Tang Long asked with a smile: "Since your company supports me, what benefits do I have?"
Hearing Tang Long's words, Chen Kangxuan's heart sank immediately, and he hurriedly said with a smile: "The prices of military items are all discounted in half, how about collecting information for you at the same time?"
Tang Long looked at Chen Kang suspiciously and asked, "Is it so good? What about your conditions? Don't tell me that I don't need any conditions!"
Chen Kang hurriedly said: "Ah, our company is a commercial company, of course it must be able to make a profit. Our request is very simple, as long as you only purchase our company's military supplies in the future, as long as you sign a contract, these will be supplied at half price. Another thing is to let us help you build the economy within your sphere of influence, then you only need to be responsible for collecting taxes and no longer need to worry about economic issues. As long as you agree to these, we can sign a peace treaty."
Chen Kang knew that these two things were prepared by the organization for destroying the agent in the future, and such contracts were usually signed with the agent when his strength was weak. I believe that so many agents in the past would be a little hesitant when they saw such a contract, but they are in the difficult development stage of entrepreneurship, and those agents must be reluctant to part with such generous conditions and sign the contract. Thinking of these records on the documents, Chen Kang began to cheerfully wait for Tang Long to nod and agree to sign the contract.
But Tang Long's reaction surprised him, because Tang Long shook his head and said: "No!" He didn't know that Tang Long was scolding him in his heart: "Damn it, Chen Kang! You are actually as good as the computer sister said In that way, the idea of playing the lifeline of my economy and military equipment? Don't even think about it!"
Chen Kang shouted in surprise: "Ah? Why don't you do it? As long as you agree, you can buy warships at half price, like this X-level warship, it only costs 10 billion! And you don't have to worry about the economy of your territory from now on. It's doubled and doubled! Why don't you agree to such a good condition?"
Tang Long shook his head and said, "How can I agree? In this case, what are my subordinates going to do? All go to war? There is no need for so many people!"
"Uh..." Chen Kang was stunned for a moment, Tang Long actually refused to sign the contract for such a reason? Is he an idiot? Are you afraid that if you are rich and powerful, you won't be able to arrange extra subordinates? Just let them occupy a planet and become the overlord! Of course, these words cannot be said. Chen Kang can only use another reason to persuade Tang Long: "If you think there are too many subordinates and it is difficult to arrange them, we can help you arrange those subordinates. You see, as long as you sign the contract, what is the problem? The company will take care of it for you.”
"So my subordinates will become your subordinates? No way!" Tang Long still shook his head and refused to sign the contract.
After Chen Kang exhausted all the benefits of signing the contract, Tang Long still refused to nod. Chen Kang, who had already spoken dryly, slammed the table and said viciously: "If you don't sign the contract, then we will stop signing the contract in the future." trade!"
Hearing this, Tang Long immediately jumped up and pointed at Chen Kang's nose, and roared ferociously, "Fuck! How dare you threaten me? I have money, soldiers, and warships! If you want to buy something, are you afraid you won't be able to buy it? Believe it or not, I found your company and wiped you all out?" Then he reached for the Cosmic Gun in his pocket.
Chen Kang regretted it as early as he uttered that harsh word. When he saw Tang Long pointing at his nose and scolding him, he was even more regretful. He scolded himself secretly: "Why am I so stupid? Did I forget Tang Long?" Is this guy a rascal who eats soft but not hard?" When he saw Tang Long draw out his gun, he hurriedly salivated and nodded with a bowed smile and said, "I'm just kidding, we can't even ask for a big customer like you. , how dare you threaten you? If you don’t trade with us, we’ll all have to drink Mistral. To express my apologies to you, I’ll send you 10 Tier X battleships as an apology. You have a lot to forgive me A joke, right?"
When Tang Long heard that he could get 10 X-rank battleships for free, he put on a smile and said, "Oh, look at what you said, I was just joking with you, how can I be really angry with you, aha, then I will accept the 10 X-class battleships with disrespect. By the way, each of these 10 X-class battleships will have 20 high-level transport ships as gifts, right?" Tang Long was so happy at the moment, he didn't expect to say something harsh, Not only can you get rid of the problem of signing contracts, but you can also get 10 Tier X transport ships.
Chen Kang hurriedly nodded and smiled: "Of course, of course, this is a special discount for you. As long as it is your X-rank warship, whether it is bought or given away, each ship can get 20 high-level warships." At this moment, Chen Kang Although Kang Kang had a smile on his face, his heart was full of bitterness, because he felt that the brotherly friendship he established with Tang Long not long ago disappeared the moment he proposed to sign the contract. I believe that when we get along with Tang Long in the future, such friendship will never be possible again. It's a pity that this friendship, when chatting with Tang Long, I really feel so relaxed, so relaxed. It's a pity that I can no longer be so relaxed in the future. From now on, I and Tang Long will put on a hypocritical mask and compete for their own interests.
The two of them stood up again like good friends, and the dispute just now seemed to have never happened before. Soon, 20 warships, 400 transport ships, and 500 civilian giant passenger ships were moored on the seaside of Tanglong's territory. The surroundings were also surrounded by people and soldiers, and their cheers were even louder this time, because they had never seen so many warships covering the sea. Of course, the reason they cheered was because under Tang Long's three-month rule, they had enough food, lived well, and their purses were puffed up, and they had become accustomed to taking Tang Long's glory as their own. .
Seeing the dense crowd in front of him, Chen Kang couldn't help saying to Tang Long: "Mr. Tang Long, the ape-men you want are all on the passenger ship. Please let your people get out of the way so that they can disembark."
Tang Long always greeted his retainers and nodded. Peng Wenfeng and Zhang Kai among the retainers immediately went to instruct the police to get the people out of the way. Hearing that a large number of people were about to come down, the people immediately moved away from a large area of the coast like a tide, and discussed with each other who was coming down.
A huge passenger ship slowly drove to the pier, dozens of landing cabins were opened, and then dozens of faces with thick black hair growing on the back of the hands, foreheads and cheeks were raised high, wearing a red leather armor, with pedals on their feet. Red cylinder leather boots, a red wide belt around the waist, round waist and big shoulders, big men with a height of 2.30 meters... no, they are not big men, they look like gorillas!
All the retainers, including Tang Long, who knew that there would be a group of ape-men coming, couldn't help being stunned when they saw these guys who were obviously gorillas, not ape-men, get out of the spaceship. Immediately afterwards, the sober people all cried out in surprise, and many children even cried. They didn't understand why the lord had so many gorillas.
Chen Kang didn't care about why they were in a daze at all. He took out the electronic board and pointed to a line of data and said to Tang Long: "What you see now are black ape-men who are specially used for fighting. They are the most powerful among all ape-men. It is also the most irritable. There are 200,000 such apes in your group of apes. In order to prevent these apes from engaging in sexual assault, the ratio of male to female is fifty to fifty."
Seeing these tough and ferocious black ape-men getting off the spaceship and neatly lined up at the pier, Tang Long couldn't help asking curiously: "Didn't you say they are the most irritable? Why are they so quiet and well-behaved?" ?”
Chen Kang said with a smile: "They were like this before they became military apes, but after training, they have learned to control themselves. By the way, please take this thing with you. After all the apes gather, please press this button, so that you You will become their loyal master. As long as you become their master, no matter how much you humiliate them in the future, they will not resist you." Chen Kang said as he took out an earmuff-like thing and handed it to Tang Long.
Tang Long nodded silently, then lowered his head, silently holding the earmuffs, wondering what he was thinking. I don't know how long it took, when Tang Long raised his head, a million ape-men were lined up neatly on the pier.
Chen Kang found that Tang Long was puzzled because he saw that the ape-man's hair had several colors, so he knew that Tang Long didn't pay attention to his explanation just now, so he had to explain to Tang Long again: "Look, that tall man The ape-men with thick hair and black fur are the black ape-men introduced just now, and they are good at fighting. The group of petite ape-men who look a bit like human girls, with white and thin hair are white ape-men. , are good at communication and monitoring. Those who are not tall, have thin limbs, and green hair are green ape-men. Their limbs are flexible and responsive, and they are good at shooting and driving. The last small group looks like humans, and those with yellow hair are yellow ape-man. They are smart and witty, and their brain structure is the closest to ours among all apes, and they are naturally good at command and planning, so they are the best candidates for ape commanders."
Chen Kang said that this indicated that Tang Long should wear the earmuffs. Of course, before that, Chen Kang used the function of the battleship to project Tang Long's image into the air, so that even the apes could see Tang Long. Because the kind of ape that recognizes the host can collect the smell of the owner's body and pass it into the brain of the ape, so that they can remember the smell of the owner. But I don't know what's going on, the premise must be to let the ape-man see the appearance of the master, otherwise it will not be successful at all.
Tang Long thought for a while and asked Chen Kang: "Do they understand my words?"
Chen Kang nodded and said: "They all have an instrument installed in their ears, and what we say will be automatically converted into their brain waves, so that they can understand what they mean. But since we don't understand ape-man language at all, and we don't People do this research, so we can't understand what they say."
Tang Long hummed, turned around and said to the retainers beside him: "Give me the horns of all the warships, I have something to say." Chen Kang thought that Tang Long wanted to explain the purpose of the ape-man to the watching people, so he didn't care. Soon, the retainers sent the microphones connected to the speakers of all the battleships to Tang Long.
Tang Long who got the microphone did not speak, but first raised the earmuffs high, then slammed them on the ground, and stomped hard on the ground. Seeing this scene on the virtual screen, those apes didn't know what the earmuffs were, and they all looked at Tang Long with strange eyes. They couldn't understand their own master in front of them, so they threw that thing to the ground and died. What does step on mean.
Chen Kang was surprised to see Tang Long stepping off the earmuffs. Of course he knew that Tang Long didn't want to be the master of these ape-men, but wanted to be the chief of these ape-men. Chen Kang complained in his heart: "Please! They are ape-men! If you don't control them, maybe you will kill everyone present as soon as the ape-like nature erupts! At that time, we will see if you cry or not, and see if you dare to cry." Dare to call yourself the savior! But, hey, although I am looking forward to this kind of thing, who told me to rely on you to get promoted and get rich, so I can only help you solve it! Well, it’s a good thing I knew it a long time ago Tang Long, you self-righteous idiot will do this, so before you set off, give these apes the smell of your body, or you will be out of luck now. As for letting you out to show off now, it is just to let the apes see your appearance. I still have one of that thing." Then he put his hand into his pocket.
While Chen Kang was thinking about this, Tang Long was already holding the microphone and shouted with high spirits: "Ape-man brothers, I am Tang Long, I will be your brother, and I will guarantee to lead you to live a happy life. ..." Tang Long's words stopped suddenly at this point, because these ape-men unexpectedly knelt on the ground together, and wailed twice, then looked up at Tang Long respectfully. At the moment, Chen Kang, who was standing beside Tang Long, pulled his hand out of his pocket with a sinister smile.
The idiot also knew what these ape-men were doing, thinking that these ape-men were moved by him, and Tang Long knelt down and said excitedly: "Get up, get up! You don't need to do such a big gift, please believe me, ape-man brothers, as long as Follow me, I guarantee you can live a happy life!"
Most of the apes scratched their heads first, looked around for a while, then stood up with a grin, and began to scratch the fleas on their bodies in boredom. Only the yellow ape got up after hearing Tang Long's words, and then stared at Tang Long thoughtfully.
After Tang Long chattered, he asked the soldiers in special armor to take the ape-men to their exclusive barracks. And Chen Kang bid farewell to Tang Long only after the parts of the three giant food making machines that came with the ship were removed from the ship, and flew out into space with his subordinates. As for those warships and transport ships, they had already been taken over by Sally and the others, and they drove away one by one.
After a while, Tang Nawen, who was in the Patriarch's Mansion, and the entire Zhongzhou star's retainers knew that Tang Long had bought 1 million ape-men. People like Donovan certainly knew that the apes they bought were divided into two types: the reclamation ape and the soldier ape. Without thinking about it, he knew that the guy Tang Long bought must be a soldier ape, and it must be a soldier ape of the battleship type.
Donovan gritted his teeth and muttered: "Damn! His 1 million apes can build 200 X-rank battleships! What does he want to do with so many soldiers?"
Tang Hainan, who was alone by Tang Nawen's side, immediately said: "What else can you do? Of course he is rebelling! His one trillion yuan is just enough to buy 200 X battleships!"
Donovan frowned, and said with a stern look in his eyes, "Rebellion..."
"Father, he doesn't have the ability to rebel for the time being, but if we continue to ignore him, I'm afraid the danger of extermination will come! Why don't you recruit him and let me hack him to death to solve the problem!" Tang Hainan said grimly . He thought that since Tang Long had been offended, he should be offended to death! In this way, Tang Long inexplicably gained a mortal enemy.
Donovan glared at his son and cursed: "Idiot! Now Tang Long has no image, and he hasn't committed any crimes. You beheaded his retainers for no reason. Aren't you afraid that the retainers will be disappointed?" Speaking of this, he saw Tang Hainan's mouth Opened it, and said immediately before he could speak: "Assassination is not acceptable! As long as Tang Long dies inexplicably, everyone will know that we did it! Do you want the Tang family to perish because of this?"
"Then what should we do? Do we just let him become stronger and stronger like this?" Tang Hainan said angrily.
Donovan rubbed his chin and said with a sneer, "Hmph, it's not easy to find an excuse. You just need to ask a few retainers to come out and suggest that he attack the Red Lion at the quarterly meeting in a few days."
Tang Hainan's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "That's right, those weird warships of the Caesar family are enough to destroy Tang Long's troops. It is possible to kill him on the spot!" Speaking of this, Tang Hainan suddenly asked hesitantly: "Uh... But if he succeeds, wouldn't it be more difficult to kill him?"
Donovan snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, this is not easy to solve? Let him continue to attack Caesar Star, even if he can pass the level of Red Lion Star with good luck, he will definitely not be able to pass the level of Caesar Star. As long as he fails once , then he is finished!"
"Ah, father is wise!" Tang Hainan hurriedly flattered his father.
Donovan smiled complacently for a while and then said to Tang Hainan: "Okay, go and prepare for those retainers who came forward to propose. Remember, the position of these retainers should not be too high or too low, and don't look for someone who is close to you." .”
"Yes, my child understands." Tang Hainan bowed and said goodbye.
Soon, the Tang family's quarterly meeting began. Tang Long, who was still a little drowsy after receiving the notice, shouted without thinking, "No! I want to sleep!" Then he turned around and lay down on the bed and began to sleep back into the cage. . But Yuna who came to report did not let Tang Long go, but stretched out her hand and grabbed Tang Long's ear and said with a smile: "My lord, get up, or you will be executed by the master if you are late!" , then rolled his mouth and snickered.
The pain in the ears and the terrifying words made Tang Long jump up immediately, and changed his clothes while muttering: "Is there any mistake, you will be executed late for the meeting? This Tang family's family rules are really perverted!"
Yuna, who watched Tang Long change without hesitation, couldn't help laughing and said, "My lord, you must come back immediately after the meeting, otherwise those retainers who are waiting for you to hold the meeting may think that you don't want to have the meeting and think about committing suicide."
Tang Long nodded helplessly and said: "I know, I will come back to hold the meeting immediately after the meeting." After speaking, Tang Long immediately scolded: "The people here are really fucking perverted, they are executed or committed suicide!"
When Yuna heard this, she just looked at Sally and smiled without saying anything, and then the two of them pulled Tang Long out of the room and pushed him onto the floating car. As for Yuna and Sally, of course they had to accompany Tang Long to the meeting, because this quarterly meeting was to report the situation of the territory, if Tang Long were to go alone, he would not know what to report at all.
