"Then isn't it invincible?" Yuna looked at Tang Long and asked worriedly. Although she had never commanded a warship, she felt a chill in her heart just thinking of this warship that was not afraid to fight, so she hoped Tang Long was able to find a solution.
Tang Long didn't hear Yuna's question, because he was frowning and muttering: "It's strange, the file battleship relies on its thickness and sudden burst of assault force. The thickness is easy to solve, but the engine that can instantly increase explosive power is not the case. It’s easy to solve! The last time the hive battleship was only similar in appearance, in addition to installing a drive engine, several more energy transmission engines were installed in the battleship to ensure the power of thousands of artillery salvos. There is only one engine. Is this the same thing for this battleship? No! Installing a few more engines cannot produce an extremely powerful instantaneous explosive force. Could it be that the mysterious munitions manufacturer really developed that kind of engine?"
Seeing Tang Long in a daze, Yuna couldn't help but push Tang Long to ask her question again. Tang Long, who was not paying attention here, said casually: "It is not invincible, but it can exert a huge threat when the battleship is in close combat."
Upon hearing this, Sally immediately asked: "Then what can be done to solve this kind of battleship?"
Tang Long still said casually: "It's very simple. If you don't get close to them, lay mines around them. Then hide in the distance and concentrate your firepower to aim at a place and shoot continuously. Just shoot it through. If you get close to them, you will lose money." Several warships, aim at their buttocks, that is, attack at the engine. As long as they can’t move, steam or braise them after the war is up to you. There are many other methods, such as directly bombing them with missiles. The pilots in them are stunned, or blown to the planet and jammed with rocks. Or blow up the computer probes installed in the gaps in their files and make them blind."
Hearing that there are so many ways to solve this kind of file warship, all the girls laughed happily. Yuna also smiled and said, "Is it okay to interfere with them with electromagnetic waves?"
"No, their thick hulls can completely block any electromagnetic waves." After shaking his head and saying this, Tang Long suddenly said to Ling Li: "Ling Li, you need to increase your intelligence collection on the Caesars and see if you can check Who is the person who sold these mysterious warships to the Caesars?"
"Yes." Ling Li nodded fiercely, of course she knew the importance of this information. It seems that the matter of installing spy satellites really needs to be done as soon as possible.
"By the way, Sally, when you take the troops out later, lay mines for me in the nearby star fields near the planets of Ulan, Winter, and Ode. Just leave a business passage in each place, and give me all three passages at the same time. Arrange a few warships to patrol." Tang Long said to Sally.
"Okay, but will this arouse the resentment of these forces?" Sally asked a little worried.
"Whether they are disgusted or not, anyway, those mines are placed within our sphere of influence, so it's not their turn to talk about it." Tang Long turned to Yuna and asked before Sally nodded, "You Na, are three business aisles enough? If not, you can let Sally get a few more."
Hearing Tang Long's words, Yuna sighed and said, "My lord, none of the caravans that arrived on our planet on time before came, and several caravans left halfway. Now the goods we are waiting to be transported away have been piled up at the port Now, you must know that the supplies for one day in our original territory require more than a dozen high-level transport ships, not to mention the cargo volume of the entire planet now."
"What's the matter? Why don't those caravans come? Is the quality of our goods too poor or the price is too high?" Tang Long asked in surprise.
Yuna said: "I can't guarantee the quality of other places, but the quality of the goods in our original territory is the best, and the price is very favorable. Like fresh frozen beef, a ton only sells for 10,000 Wulai coins. A standard live cow is only sold for 10,000 Wulai coins, which is several times lower than the price in other places!"
"Since the quality and price ratio of our items is so good, why don't those caravans trade with us?" Tang Long asked puzzled.
"I don't know what's going on, those merchants didn't say anything, they just said they wouldn't trade with us." Yuna shook her head helplessly. Seeing Tang Long staring at her, Ling Li shook her head and said guiltily, "I'm sorry, our intelligence department didn't get any information."
"If the goods cannot be sold, the people will have no income, and we will have no taxes!" Tang Long stood up and muttered while walking back and forth, suddenly, Tang Long stopped and asked Yuna: "Can we form a caravan by ourselves? If possible, we might as well buy the people’s goods and then ship them out and sell them.”
Yuna said in a somewhat embarrassed tone: "It is possible, but we have no trade routes and no sales places. After all, we used to rely on caravans to sell goods."
Tang Long said excitedly: "If you don't have one, go find it yourself, create it yourself! And we can also collect galaxy information along the way!" Hearing this, Ling Li's eyes lit up immediately, and she immediately agreed, and the others also nodded Approved Tang Long's plan.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Tang Long immediately ordered: "Sally, you allocate 100 high-level transport ships and transform them into armed merchant ships! How long will it take?"
After thinking for a while, Sally said: "The structure of an advanced transport ship is very similar to that of a merchant ship. It only needs to add a refrigeration system and dismantle some small arms warehouses. If we put all our hands on this aspect, it can be completed in just two days."
Tang Long clapped his hands abruptly and said, "Okay! We also need to place the spy satellites on the ship where no one will find them, so that they can be placed by the way when looking for business routes. Also, find a group of people who are good at observation, eloquent and People who know how to drink come, and there will be a lot of entertainment when doing business. At the same time, it is necessary to transform the cabin enough for 60 people, 10 transport ship members, and 50 mech soldiers. Ling Li, you can search online to see who is in the nearby countries Those who need our goods, find me and send them to your door." Tang Long turned his head and said to Yuna: "See if there is a way to register a trading company in Wulai Country. With this signboard, all forces in and out of the Wuchao Galaxy Range shouldn't be a problem."
"It's very simple to apply for a company in Wulai Country. You only need to fill in the type of trade and the size of the company, and pay a foreigner registration fee more than the locals in Wulai Country. You can register now." Yuna said. Walking towards Ling Li's computer desk, Tang Long and others surrounded him with interest.
After Yuna turned on the computer and entered the universe bank system, she chose Wulai Country in the country category, then chose Wulai Country's business services, and finally entered the project of applying for the company.
Yuna didn't even ask the person concerned, and directly filled in Tang Long's name in the applicant's name column. Then he pushed Tang Long's head in front of the camera to take a picture, and entered it into the column of the company's legal person photo, and then began to fabricate the address name. When it was time to fill in the company name, Yuna asked Tang Long, "What is the company name?"
"The main product of our planet is cattle, let's call it Niu Niu Interstellar Trade Co., Ltd." Tang Long said after thinking for a while.
When everyone was frowning secretly because of the name 'Niu Niu', Yuna shouted in surprise: "Infinity? My lord, the company that is generally called Infinity is always involved in everything! You take this Such a company name could cause a lot of trouble."
"What's the trouble? Anyway, we not only sell beef for commercial trade, but also engage in espionage activities, and we will also buy arms when we have the opportunity. Of course, the name of Unlimited Trading Company is suitable for us. Are ordinary people not allowed to apply for such a company name? " Tang Long asked puzzled.
Yuna shook her head without saying a word, and continued to fill in false information in the registration column below. When it was time to choose the company size, Tang Long, who had been staring at Yuna, hadn't asked any questions and shouted: "Choose a premium one, this The name is majestic!"
Yuna sighed helplessly, and after clicking the confirm button, a subtitle with a registration fee of 1 billion Wulai coins appeared on the screen. Tang Long took out his bank card and handed it to Yuna, and asked curiously: "Why do you want so much? I remember that the registration fee for a large company in the Wanluo Federation is at most 10 million Luo coins."
Yuna pointed to the text on the bottom of the screen and said: "Oh, my lord, didn't you read the commentary below? The registration fee for the special scale is 500 million Wulai coins, and the registration fee for foreigners is doubled." Said After shaking Tang Long's bank card, he asked, "Transfer money?"
"Huh! Discriminate against foreigners, I despise you Wu Laiguo! Transfer money!" Gritting his teeth, Tang Long poked his head to the camera where the photo was taken just now, ready to let the banking system scan for authentication.
After a few beeps from the computer BB, Tang Long's card lost 1 billion Wulai coins. Seeing the prompt on the screen that a magnetic card is required for recording, Ling Li took out a blank electronic magnetic card and handed it to Yuna without waiting for Yuna to speak. Yuna inserted the electronic magnetic card into the computer, clicked the registration button, pulled out the electronic magnetic card and threw it to Tang Long, saying: "This is your business license."
Tang Long and the others stared at the card in Tang Long's hand in astonishment, and then asked in unison: "So simple?"
Yuna curled her lips: "It's that simple, otherwise it would be so difficult. Don't be misled by the knowledge in books. In order to increase its tax revenue, Wu Laiguo almost pays money to register the company, and there is no review at all. "
"Collect taxes? How do they collect the money we earn from doing business? Is it deducted from the bank card?" Tang Long asked in surprise.
Yuna smiled and said, "For foreigners, they don't charge taxes. But they will require you to pay as much as the registration fee every year to compensate for taxes, or your business license will be revoked."
"Hmph, it's so bad! If I didn't need to use the name of Wu Laiguo to enter and leave the Wuchao galaxy, I wouldn't need a business license!" Tang Long flicked the business license angrily and said.
"Ling Li, I'll leave the business information to you, and it's best to get a galaxy map in the next few days. If we can't get it, we have to go back to Wanluo Federation to do business." Hearing Tang Long's words, Ling Li nodded with a serious expression.
"Sally, let's go quickly and transform those transport ships." Tang Long ran away quickly while holding Sally's hand.
Yuna was stunned for a while, and then asked Ling Li: "My lord, he doesn't want to lead the team to do business in person, does he?"
Ling Li nodded and said, "According to his personality, it is very likely that he will do this."
"Are you mistaken! This planet has just been occupied! How does it work when he's gone? No way! I have to stop him!" Yuna said angrily and ran away.
When Ling Li saw the swaying gate, she shrugged helplessly, and then began to think. Now that foreign businessmen are unwilling to enter Zhongzhou Star and cannot buy a galaxy map from them, why didn't she notice this at the beginning? Alas, it seems that the only hope is that the local merchants will have a galaxy map with more planets than the central computer. Thinking of this, Ling Li immediately shouted: "Come here, call the presidents of all chambers of commerce for me!"
"What? The Zhongzhou star is laying mines in the star field near us, and has placed patrol boats?!" The leadership of Ulan, Ode, and Winter received this report at the same time. People from different planets reacted differently to this incident. Ulan and Ode, two people who had ambitions for Zhongzhou Star, subconsciously wondered if Tang Long had discovered his intentions. After having this idea, they all slowed down the plan of reorganizing the army by coincidence, and were going to check the situation before making a decision. As for the response of Winter Star's leadership, it immediately followed the usual habit of holding a meeting to discuss.
In the parliament hall of the Parliament Building of the Republic of Winter, sitting at the head of the parliamentary rostrum is an old man with age spots on his face. Although he looks inconspicuous, he is the speaker of the Parliament of Winter and the president of the Republic of Winter. I saw him first knock on the table with a small mallet to quiet down those congressmen who were as noisy as market peddlers competing for a small profit. Then, staring at the slightly cloudy eyes, he glanced at the congressmen present and said, "Do you have any opinions on the matter of Xingbrei in Zhongzhou?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young congressman sitting directly opposite him immediately stood up and said: "We should protest to Zhongzhou Star! Protest against their intrusion!"
The young councilor wanted to continue talking, but a young councilor immediately stood up from the councillors on the left side of the lobby and shouted: "No! They are only laying mines within the sphere of influence of Zhongzhou Star, and have not entered our sphere of influence, so we cannot have Interfering in the internal affairs of other forces against the will of democracy!"
The congressman had just finished speaking when another congressman stood up on the right side of the lobby and shouted: "We are not discussing this now, we should be discussing the safety of caravan navigation, I propose to protest against Zhongzhou Star's undemocracy and let them open trade routes to allow caravans to communicate with each other!"
"No! Zhongzhou Star is a dictatorial force! As a democratic country, we cannot discuss any issues with dictatorial forces!" Another congressman stood up and shouted.
Just like this, one congressman stood up and refuted the other congressman as soon as he finished speaking, and then the person who was refuted started to refute again. After a while, almost all members of parliament stood up and started arguing, which caused the originally quiet parliament to become chaotic again.
For these, the old councilors on the rostrum seemed to be accustomed to such things, and did not stop or pay attention to them at all, but did their own things. Either chatting and laughing with people around me, or drinking tea and reading newspapers. What's even more outrageous is that many people are leaning on the back of the chair with their eyes closed, and the old speaker is one of these people.
After about several hours, those congressmen sat down to rest after being tired from the noise. The speaker opened his eyes, grabbed the gavel and tapped it, and then said: "Since this issue requires a long discussion, today's parliament is temporarily closed. I hope tomorrow Members come in on time to participate in the discussion." After speaking, the members stood up and sent them off, and left with a group of old members. And when these old councilors left, the young councilors immediately left in twos and threes whistling. where are they going Just look at the golf bags, tennis rackets in their cars, and the beauties in sexy clothes.
Tang Long, who was wearing a set of expensive suit and holding a large stack of documents in his hand, looked excitedly at the 100 snow-white transport ships painted with the words "Niu Niu Interstellar Trading Co., Ltd.", turned his head and asked Yuna: "Is everything loaded?"
Originally wanted to persuade Tang Long not to engage in trade in person, but Yuna, who was defeated by Tang Long with countless reasons, said helplessly: "Everything is loaded, 20 ships with 2 million tons of frozen fish, 10 ships with 1 million tons of frozen mutton, 20 ships of 2 million tons of frozen chicken and ducks, 20 ships of 2 million tons of frozen pork, 30 ships of 3 million tons of frozen beef, the detailed meat grades and the price lists of various places are now stored in the computer.”
Yuna said this, looked at Tang Long with a worried expression and asked, "You really don't need to bring a few battleship escorts?"
Tang Long said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous. Didn't those retainers say that the Wuchao galaxy is chaotic, but it is the only galaxy without pirates? Hehe, even if they encounter pirates, I believe they won't shoot us and destroy us as soon as they see us, right?" ?We also have 50 mecha soldiers on each ship. As long as the pirates dare to board the ship, these 5,000 elites selected from a million-strong army can definitely make the pirates come and go! Besides, the pirates are not necessarily They will rob merchant ships, after all, they also need merchants to buy and sell goods."
After hearing the words, Yuna looked at Tang Long quietly, and after a while said with concern: "If you encounter pirates, please protect yourself." She stretched out her hand to straighten Tang Long's tie.
Tang Long was taken aback, but quickly looked at Yuna and said gratefully: "Thank you, I will."
Embarrassed by Tang Long, Yuna suddenly thought of something and said with a smile: "By the way, Ling Li asked you to collect military information on the planets you have visited, and I ask you to collect commercial information. Also, in order to send spy satellites, These transport ships have been specially modified with several satellite launching holes, and each ship has 100 spy satellites. Moreover, the self-defense artillery of these transport ships have increased their firepower, which can fight with low-level patrol boats. Also, our Zhongzhou star The warehouse can only put down a week's production, I hope you can contact the customer as soon as possible. If our food supplies are stored for too long, I believe you also know how much loss it will cause."
"Guaranteed to complete the task!" Tang Long saluted Yuna with a smile, and then said, "Then I'll go." As he said that, he wanted to walk towards the 100 transport ships.
Yuna pulled Tang Long to kiss Tang Long's forehead and said, "Good luck!"
Tang Long didn't feel at all uncomfortable with the politeness of saying goodbye only among relatives and friends of the Wanluo Federation. After smiling at Yuna, he ran to the nearest transport ship. And Yuna stood upright on the spot, watching Tang Long's figure enter the transport ship in a daze.
Tang Long, who boarded the transport ship, saw a group of guards in black suits kneeling aside to greet him, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Get up, don't kneel and salute like that when you go out, after all, we are businessmen now."
"It's the lord." The sturdy guard said respectfully after standing up.
"No, don't call me the lord, call me the boss, otherwise how can you look like a businessman?" Tang Long, who was talking, suddenly found a familiar face from the guards, and couldn't help but said in surprise: "Huh? Liu Dong you Why are you here? Didn’t you go to be the commander of the fighting troop?”
That simple and honest Liu Dong rubbed his head embarrassedly and said: "This subordinate knows that the lord is going outside, so I asked Mrs. Sally to come and follow the lord."
Tang Long said with a smile: "Hehe, with a fighter like you around, I'm not afraid of encountering pirates. Ah, you have to change your name to me as the boss, don't call me the lord, or if someone who cares hears it, they will doubt our identities." .”
Although Liu Dong looks simple and honest, it does not mean that he is not smart. As soon as Tang Long finished speaking, he immediately changed his words and said, "Yes, boss."
"Okay, everyone is in your place, ready to go." Tang Long said as he walked towards the control room. He smelled a familiar scent just after entering the control room. Before he could find out where the scent came from, he was caught by a delicate body. He took his arm. And I heard a sweet voice in my ear: "My lord, I want to go with you too."
Tang Long took a closer look, and it really was Li Liwen who had been entangled with him all day. At this moment, she also took off her military uniform, and changed into a white shirt and a black suspender skirt. For this girl who is 3 years younger than himself, Tang Long always has a feeling of a younger sister, so Tang Long patted Li Liwen on the head and smiled, "It's good to have you accompany me to go out to earn money, Yuna and the others know you're here." ?"
Li Liwen nodded and said: "My lord, don't worry, Liwen left a message for them."
"Well, that's fine. By the way, don't call me Lord, call me brother." Tang Long laughed.
Li Liwen's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and she muttered a few words: "Brother...Brother..." Then she hugged Tang Long's arm excitedly, looked at Tang Long with longing eyes and shouted: "Will you be my brother?" Brother?"
"What? Don't you want to be my sister?" Tang Long smiled at Li Liwen and ordered the pilot to set sail.
"Yes, yes!" Li Liwen nodded eagerly.
"Listen to that cry, brother." Tang Long, who was already sitting on the command chair, teased Li Liwen, who was kneeling on the ground and clutching his arm.
"Brother...Brother." Li Liwen shouted shyly, and immediately lowered her head with blushing face after shouting.
Tang Long, who didn't want Li Liwen to be too embarrassing, smiled and touched Li Liwen's head and said, "Oh, good boy, I'll buy some candy for you later."
Hearing Tang Long's words, Li Liwen got up and stomped her feet with a blushing face, then shook Tang Long's arm and said resolutely: "Brother is a villain, you still treat Liwen like a child, Liwen is already 17 years old."
"Haha, 17 years old, not yet an adult, it's normal for my brother to buy candy for you." Tang Long smiled heartily.
"Hmph, bad brother, Liwen is ignoring you." Li Liwen shook off her hand and wrinkled her nose at Tang Long's coquettish wrinkle.
Tang Long smiled and didn't continue to tease him. Instead, he turned on the computer in front of the command chair and called up the business information entered by Ling Li to check it. When Li Liwen saw Tang Long start working, she didn't say a word anymore, and sat obediently on the ground leaning against Tang Long's command chair, looking up at Tang Long's concentrated expression. At this moment, her face was full of happiness. Although she was only 17 years old, her naturally delicate and beautiful face, coupled with her acquired elegance, combined with her blushing expression, made the guards around Tang Long I was dazzled by the sight, and some guys with poor concentration had swallowed their saliva secretly.
Liu Dong, who was the commander of the mecha corps of the 100 transport ships this time, was the first to wake up. When he saw Li Liwen sitting on the metal floor, he couldn't help but immediately ran back to the guard's dormitory. At the beginning, the guards didn't know what the leader was going to do. When they saw him coming back with a pillow, they secretly scolded themselves for being stupid. Why didn't they seize such a good opportunity to flatter
Liu Dong came to Li Li's tattoo and said in a low voice, "Miss, you sit here."
Li Liwen looked at the pillow and immediately said with a smile, "Thank you."
Liu Dong waved his hands hurriedly and said, "You're welcome, this is what your subordinates should do." After finishing speaking, he hurriedly withdrew, for the lord's newly recognized sister, he didn't dare to let his eyes look carelessly and be rude.
Li Liwen sat on the pillow, leaned against Tang Long's chair again, and watched Tang Long quietly. She didn't know that her status had changed just now, but even if she knew, this pure girl wouldn't care about how her status changed. Because all she cares about is that her idol has become her brother and her relative.
Tang Long, who had made up his mind after reading the computer data, found that the transport ship had rushed out of the atmosphere, and he ordered to the navigator: "Jump to the starfish at the position of sk34li3." Tang Long secretly praised the local chamber of commerce for providing this accurate space position. The president knows the general idea, if he hadn't provided the information about the starfish, I'm afraid I really have to go back to Wanluo Federation to do business. I don't know what other local businessmen are doing. Except for the president, the furthest place other local businessmen have traveled is actually the Oud Empire. How much money can they make at such a short distance!
"Yes!" The navigator immediately entered this position into the computer and sent it to all transport ships.
"My lord... oh, no.... Brother, which faction does Ming Haixing belong to? Why do you want to go there?" Li Liwen, who was not used to being called Brother Tang Long, asked curiously.
Tang Long stroked Li Liwen's hair and replied: "That is the capital star of the Minghai Federation in the center of the Wuchao galaxy. According to information, the Minghai Federation has 15 administrative stars. As for why you want to go there, it is because The information shows that their meat prices have risen, and our batch of meat products will definitely be able to sell at a good price." Tang Long muttered to himself: "President, President, I hope your information from a few months ago is still useful. Otherwise, we'd be wasting our time."
Li Liwen thought that she would have to fight to the death to fully occupy one administrative star on her side, while others have 15 administrative stars, so she couldn't help but immediately asked: "15 administrative stars? It is the most powerful in the Wuchao galaxy. Power?"
Tang Long shook his head and said: "I'm not sure, but among the information we collected, it is indeed the most powerful, but the information we collected is very incomplete, and we only collected the general situation of a few forces. Who knows if there is any How about a power with hundreds of administrative stars?"
Tang Long saw Li Liwen tilting his head after hearing what he said, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm about to jump in space, why don't you go back and sit down?"
Li Liwen shook her head and said with a smile: "It's okay, the people in this kind of high-level transport ship will not feel it when it jumps."
Tang Long smiled and said nothing, but stretched out an arm to hug Li Liwen sideways, because the space jump started. Yuna and the others saw the 100 snow-white transport ships disappearing in the starry sky on the screen of the Zhongzhou Star monitoring room, and they all secretly prayed to the gods to bless Tang Long for his safe return.
