The letter Wang Qi saw was indeed written by Gu Hang himself, and no one taught him.
When writing this letter, he actually had two thoughts.
First, emotionally.
Having the same name and surname, and using someone else’s body as their predecessor, Gu Hang felt that when the time was right, he should give an explanation.
With his body, Gu Hang felt somewhat responsible for this person with the same name. My predecessor was obsessed with proving this to her mother, so let's satisfy this obsession.
Therefore, Gu Hang wrote the first half of the letter.
But when it comes to explanation, just stopping there is not enough. Digging deeper into the memory of his predecessor, he found out that his resentment towards his mother came from his love for his mother. If he really had no feelings for his biological mother, how could he hate her.
So, there is another saying of admitting your mistakes but standing tall and expressing your ambitions.
The relationship between mother and child needs to be eased. This method cannot simply be a crying confession, it is definitely not in line with the predecessor's ideas, not only that, but also to let the mother see changes.
However, the emotional factors are relatively secondary. More importantly, there are some practical considerations.
All Gu Hang saw in his memories of his previous life was dissatisfaction with his biological mother. In the previous generation's thinking, his biological mother was the image of a cold, rational, inhumane, and controlling strong woman. Her status as a powerful person was far greater than that of a mother. He had felt very little maternal love since he was a child.
But this is the perspective of the predecessor.
With Gu Hang's eyes, he rediscovered those memories. From the perspective of a bystander, he was still certain that Ms. Wang Qi still loved her son. However, the focus is different.
I can understand that too.
It is true that Gu Hang was once the leader of the Gu family. His grandfather was the leader of the family. As the third eldest son, his father was the most popular and outstanding among his grandfather. He was designated as the first heir early, but he died before his grandfather died.
He was just born when his father died; he was only three years old when his grandfather died.
After grandpa’s death, the identity of the heir may not necessarily fall into Gu Hang’s hands. He also has several direct uncles. In addition, there are many other people from the same sect, each with their own bloodline and each controlling a certain industry.
Which of the brothers, uncles, or biological uncles can wait for a three-year-old child to grow up and become the leader
It is unrealistic.
At this time, the only person who can support this small family is Wang Qi. Without my mother's support, Gu Hang might not be able to grow up even if he has a dark heart; when he grows up, I'm afraid his uncles have already divided up the things left by his grandfather, and what is left for him depends on others.
However, Wang Qi's tough use of her late husband to expand her influence in the family and her efforts to gnaw on flesh will of course result in hostility, criticism and exclusion.
She is strong enough in her heart and is not afraid of those enemies. She can even fight back and forth. That is her ability. But when Gu Hang was a child, he sufferedHe was bullied verbally and even physically by his fellow clan members, but he was unable to resist or resolve it. His mother was so busy that she was unable to protect him all the time, so much so that the psychological trauma affected the establishment of his personality.
Wang Qi is indeed not a qualified mother in terms of raising and taking care of her children; but in the special family environment, she mainly wants to preserve the property that belongs to their family, which is hard to say. She did it completely wrong.
From an onlooker's point of view, Gu Hang should still be very important in his mother's heart, but the way he implements it and expresses it is different.
Based on this judgment, Gu Hang believes that he cannot be deceived by the memory of his predecessor, and the relationship between the two parties is not completely irreconcilable.
And if the relationship can be reconciled, the value of Gu's Trading Company will be very huge for a developing planet.
Just look at Wang Jiarong’s arrival this time. Gu Hang had seen many of the goods she carried on board and expressed his deep desire for them.
Commerce is an important point in the development of the planet.
Furthermore, if the relationship can be reconciled, Gu, especially his biological mother, will in turn become a huge boost to the development of his planet.
If the Gu family can fully support him in building the planet, with dozens of large and small caravans, dividing them into several vehicles, and transporting several batches of materials, then his process of rebuilding the world will be greatly accelerated. Push forward.
It’s not that it won’t work without it, it’s just that it will be faster if it is.
In addition to establishing interstellar trade and direct material support, what Gu Hang also values is the interstellar influence possessed by the Gu family.
This is what he lacks.
This will bring political benefits and can buy things that he would not be able to buy if he had money.
Then, we need to see the effect of his letter in the future, how it turned out, and whether it impressed his mother.
"It should be no problem. I have been thinking about how to write the letter for a long time."
While thinking, Gu Hang had already seen the Raging Owl Star, which had appeared in his In front of you.
Go home.
Gu Hang returned to the surface on the first batch of transport spaceships.
One wave of spaceships cannot return everyone. The soldiers behind will need multiple batches of transport spacecrafts to travel between the planet's surface and orbit.
The three space ships in the starry sky will each stay for a period of time.
The Quintet will stay for about a month and a half.
It needs to complete some preliminary maintenance work in the orbit of the planet. The mechanical priests and technicians on the starship will carefully check the status of the starship during this period of time. If there are minor problems that can be repaired without resorting to star forts or orbital shipyards, they will be dealt with first.
But when it comes to major hull repairs and the reconstruction of some destroyed weapon systems, it is definitely not something that can be done with minor repairs, and it still has to be returned to the factory.
Gu Hang also promised to help with this matter. At that time, there may be some needs for materials and metal parts, which can be done here on Raging Owl Star.
It’s hard to say anything else. The related industries of alloy plastic steel are already very mature in Weixing City. There is no problem with building materials and even metal processing to make suitable parts as needed. .
And Ye Lixia also told Gu Hang that the support in this regard would not be in vain. The raw materials and parts of Nu Xiao Star will be converted into cost, formed into a bill, and sent to the Imperial Navy. The Navy will then confirm the bill and then submit it to the Ministry of Military Affairs to form a complete collection procedure and pay the tax currency to the governor of Nu Xiao Star.
Gu Hang didn’t care much about this at first. It was just some basic processing parts and raw materials, how much more could they be worth?
However, later on he was very glad that he did not do anything to make money. During the month and a half that the Quintet was undergoing maintenance in the orbit of the Raging Owl, it consumed less than half a month's production capacity of the Wei Xingcheng Alloy Plastic Steel Processing Plant, and the final bill was 3,000 tax coins.
It would still be very distressing if this was given to me in vain.
In a month, a destroyer from the Pegasus Fleet will arrive in orbit on the Raging Owl and take over the work of the Quintet.
At first, Gu Hang was a little dissatisfied with this. The cruiser was replaced by a destroyer. How can I be happy?
However, Yelicia’s words made him change his mind.
In fact, the reason is very simple. If it is really a cruiser, the captain of that ship is at least a commodore. He has the same military rank as Ye Lixia now, and his qualifications are definitely much older than her. , she really can’t give orders, she can only give some suggestions at most. That would not be very suitable for Gu Hang's actions on the planet's surface.
A new destroyer came over, and the captain was probably just a colonel, or maybe even a lieutenant colonel. She really had the ability to turn against customers, and it would be easier to cooperate with Gu Hang's actions.
Gu Hang admitted that what she said made sense.
In addition, Wang Jiarong’s Beautiful Girl will be accompanied by a frigate and will stay in the Nuo Xiao Galaxy for three months.
Gu Hang was also a little confused about this.
His personal trade needs are actually not large. He has no special need for bulk commodities. What he really wants to buy is a few synthetic starch production lines to expand the food processing industry in his existing territory and relieve food pressure; in addition, it is the high-end commodities that the Phoenix Chapter needs.
In addition, Gu Hang is not greedy for a large number of minerals, weapons and equipment, and consumer goods. He also saw a Knight Titan Note 1 in the list of goods Wang Jiarong gave him. This thing almost satisfied Gu Hang's romantic feelings for mechas from some science fiction works he read in his previous life.
Ten meters tall, humanoid, equipped with plasma cannon, missile launcher, and can carry 10The 5mm kinetic energy cannon is a rotating rapid-fire cannon that shoots out like machine gun bullets. In terms of defense, in addition to the alloy ceramic armor mixed with fine gold, there is also a powerful shield generator, which is very flexible in key operations. It is quite difficult for conventional artillery to lock on and hit it.
Just such a thing, it can be used as a super firepower platform from a distance, and it can lead infantry to charge into battle at a close distance. It is a super killer.
Of course Gu Hang was greedy, but when he asked about the price
Ten million tax coins was still an unprofitable cost price
Forget it, this thing is for now It’s still something that can’t be played with.
In addition to these high-end commodities, he does not need to buy large quantities of bulk commodities such as minerals and food for the time being.
As for the goods he currently needs, the transport planes can deliver them to him in just a few flights. Where does it need to be parked for three months?
When he heard his question , Wang Jiarong smiled awkwardly and said that after shipping things to Gu, she still had to transport some goods to Blackbird Heavy Industry, some to be transported down the road, and some to be transported to the starship.
Gu Hang narrowed his eyes at that time.
“Good guy, didn’t you agree to come to support my cousin?”
“Looking at you, sister, I’m afraid you haven’t already been with Blackbird Heavy Industries, or with them. The Fachers family later had a clear discussion.”
“It’s really a big deal. What your cousin needs can be shipped in half a week or a week; Blackbird. The heavy industry business will be lucky for three months, right?"
"It's true that we are repairing the relationship with the Fachus family."
Gu Hang was in a strange mood, and the Wang family was in trouble. Rong was also very embarrassed.
She immediately said that this matter was a collective decision of your Gu family, not even your mother’s decision.
This is what she emphasized in the end, "Anyway, I am here to support you and do a business with Faches by the way."
Gu Hang sneered and said, "It's the opposite, just talk to Faches." Doing business here is the key, and supporting me is actually just a way. Oh, no, it should be a way out of the way. After all, I, the governor, are not dead yet. Interstellar trade requires the governor's approval. If you want to do this business, you can't go around it. Me."
Wang Jiarong was too embarrassed to speak.
Of course, Gu Hang was not really angry.
Nothing to be angry about.
This is normal.
What’s wrong with my cousin? My cousin deserves to drive an interstellar spaceship to deliver a batch of goods with a total value that I don’t know if they are expensive in gas, and sell them to my cousin at a fair price
Everyone wants to make money, not shabby.
However, this sentence is also valid for Gu Hang.
“I don’t care how you deal with Blackbird Heavy Industries. I only remind you of two points. First, you, the Fofana family, can handle it yourself. The Imperial Navy starship is parked in orbit. I guess they won’t. I would like to see you do a big deal with Blackbird Heavy Industries. The political cost here has nothing to do with me.I will also make it clear to Yelicia. "
"Well, I understand. You don't have to worry. Your Gu family was already active before departure. I'm just a worker. If there is a problem, I won't take the risk. . ”
“That’s okay. Gu Hang turned to the second point, "Second, Blackbird Heavy Industry is part of the Raging Owl Star. I am the governor, and they are also my people." All interstellar transactions on the planet require my nod. Blackbird Heavy Industries must pay me the imperial tax for the past two years. My request is not excessive, 10% of the output value of the two years; in addition, I will also pay a transaction tax of 10% for this transaction. "
"Of course I have no problem with this, but I can't guarantee whether Blackbird Heavy Industries is willing. "
"Then let them send someone to talk to me. If you don't agree, don't do this business. "
"Cousin" Wang Jiarong also tried to act coquettishly.
"There's nothing to talk about. "
Wang Jiarong was helpless, "This is a deal between your Gu family and the Faches family, cousin."
Gu Hang didn't take this kind of thing seriously. "Don't talk about it." It makes me even more angry if you say that. Mrs. Gu didn't give me any help on the Raging Owl Star, so there was no reason for me to take special care of the Gu and Fa family's business. I have exempted the beautiful girl caravan from the transaction tax. I only ask them to pay the imperial tax and transaction tax that they should pay. This is already merciful enough. "
"If we can't even agree to this, the Quintet will destroy all unauthorized orbital traffic. I believe Ye Lixia will be very happy to help me with this. "
Wang Jiarong had no choice. She sighed and said, "I will convey your meaning to Blackbird Heavy Industries. However, I still have to say that there may be some displeasure within the family. ”
Gu Hang didn’t care, “Then let my uncles and my mother pout and jump around on the Flying Wings to scold me. What can they do?”
"I thought you wanted to reconcile with your family. "
"No. Gu Hang corrected his cousin's view, "There is no right to reconcile or not. I'm not stopping anyone. I just want the part that should be given to me." If even this cannot be guaranteed, how can we talk about reconciliation?"
After returning to Fuxing City, Gu Hang called for a work meeting.
He left Fuxing City, It has been more than a month, and he has even received a monthly salary.
Although, it is necessary for him to personally participate in the military operation on the starship. He can be considered powerful. If the psyker himself does not appear, I am afraid that he will not be able to deal with the green-skinned warlord; at the same time, he must be present to persuade Yelicia, who originally did not want to fight, to fight; to win the fruits of victory after the war, he must also be there. You have to do it yourself.
However, the surface of the planet cannot be separated from him.
To put it bluntly, it has only been three or four months since the alliance was seized. He is still short of people, and even Oceana has to wear multiple hats and is very busy all day long.>
The political system established by the entire new alliance is a highly centralized planning form. Without him as the governor in charge, if it goes too long, who knows what trouble will happen.
In fact, even for a month, Gu Hang was worried that something would go wrong.
Although Oceana and Yan Fangxu were left with a device that could communicate with the starship, Gu Hang did not communicate with the people below at all during this period. However, communication every few dozen minutes is completely insufficient. Gu Hang urgently needs a practical work meeting to understand what happened in his territory in the past month and whether all the work has unfolded as he expected.
While waiting for the arrival of his main subordinates, he was still thinking about Blackbird Heavy Industries.
There are three continents in total on the Raging Owl Star. The other two small continents were originally the main mining areas for psychic gas fields and were also the places most severely damaged by the war. They were almost a dead land. Storms can continue all day long, and the extremely harsh environment makes it more difficult for people to survive, and it is impossible to grow food. According to intelligence, those two continents are basically no man's land.
On the main continent, Blackbird Heavy Industries plays a very important role. The history of this company is even longer than that of the Raging Owl Star Alliance. They had existed for a long time before the alliance was established.
According to the information that Cai Hang currently has on hand, Blackbird Heavy Industries’ home base is approximately located on the westernmost coast of the mainland, tens of thousands of kilometers away from Fuxing City where he is currently located. They control a considerable area of land, and approximately 10 million people live there. Part of the main source of food comes from the fertile Great Plains in the western part of the continent, although there are also many areas shrouded by the waste energy storm. , but the remaining land is enough to feed a considerable number of people.
The other part comes from the food from the pre-war technical breeding factories under the oases in the Western Desert region.
Looking at the name Blackbird Heavy Industries, you can tell that this is a super enterprise whose main business is heavy industry. They are still nominally a part of the alliance, but since the second generation of governors, they have drifted away from the alliance. They pay symbolic imperial taxes every two years.
According to the population of 10 million under their rule, it stands to reason that they should produce products worth two million tax coins every tax period and send them to the alliance government as their tax revenue for the year. .
However, in the past six years and three tax periods, they have given at most 400,000 tax coins at one time and only 200,000 tax coins at the least.
The difference is huge, but the key is that the coalition government is unable to collect it.
How can we take back the bear-like appearance of the old alliance legion and travel thousands of miles to conquer the continent and the western world? Even if we mobilize all political forces, we can't do this.
The governors of the past dynasties could only send letters to scold and accuse Blackbird Heavy Industry of not paying taxes, which is a traitor to the empire and a rebellion.
But what a coincidence. Suppressing planetary rebellions is the Governor's job. If you don't do it well, it's your incompetence. Theoretically, if you encounter a rebellion, you can call for support from the Empire. It is also possible for the Astra Militarum, the Imperial Navy, or even a flying war group to fly in.
But unfortunately, this is only theoretical. Unless the situation is so bad that it may or has already affected multiple surrounding areas, the empire will have no time to deal with you.
There was even a rebellion on some planets, and the rebels killed all the governors before imperial reinforcements arrived.
Sent people to the ground to take a look. The rebels said that the previous governor was tyrannical and incompetent. We overthrew him, but we are still loyal to the empire and we are willing to continue to pay taxes. The new issue We are ready to pay the taxes.
When the imperial reinforcements heard this, they said, OK, then you will be the new governor, and then they went back home.
It's very rough, but from the perspective of the empire, the rebellion is gone. The new governor is very loyal, the taxes are not reduced at all, and there is no need to fight. This is not a happy situation for everyone
As for the old governor A loser who couldn't even handle a rebellion was brought down dead.
The probability of this happening is low, but it has been recorded many times.
For Gu Hang now, he is unable to directly interfere with matters in the far west of the mainland, and he does not have the ability to organize an army to conduct an expedition across thousands of miles, and the logistical supplies cannot withstand it at all. .
Orbital support is useless. It is impossible to establish rule by bombing alone without ground troops to control it.
Even if it is to engage in orbital airdrops and orbital transportation of material supply and transfer, the distance on the ground can be ignored. However, the Quintet is a standard battleship and the orbital transportation conditions are not good, so it cannot support this matter; Beautiful As an armed merchant ship, the Maiden has the conditions to do so, but it is obvious that Wang Jiarong will not support him in fighting this battle.
Even if he wins the battle, the current industrial level of the Raging Owl Star Land cannot support him in a short period of time to span thousands of miles to rule the land on the other side of the continent.
In short, fighting is not reliable and the time is not ripe now.
But on the contrary, through this key transaction between Gu and Faches, Blackbird Heavy Industries was asked to pay and hand over the money they should pay. If they don't pay, they will block the trade. This can still be done. The Quintet can tightly seal the trade links between the surface and the planet's orbit.
According to Gu Hang’s idea, at the lowest level, you should pay me the 2 million tax coins for this period honestly; in addition, Gu Hang also asked them to make up for the three tax installments that were insufficient in the past six years. Part, almost 5 million tax coins.
Seven million in total.
Of course, Blackbird Heavy Industries and Faches may not be willing to accept the latter one. Gu Hang didn't intend to push the other party to death, otherwise the business would be broken up and Gu Hang's idea of taking money out of the other party's pocket would also be in vain. That would be bad.
We will talk about it when we see it.
In short, 2 million tax coins is the bottom line.
Today’s update is late, but there are 6000 words
I actually finished writing 4,000 words last night. I thought about it during the timer and decided to write 2,000 more to make it smoother. I wrote it this afternoon.
