Those who were not happy about the agreement between Gu Hang and Blackbird Heavy Industries were Ye Lixia and Wang Jiarong.
Let’s talk about Yelicia first.
This outstanding young woman from the Fofana family has no legitimate position to oppose this matter, but she obviously hopes that Gu Hang and Blackbird Heavy Industries will break up. Even during several phone calls, she made it clear that as long as the talks collapsed, she could completely block the connection between Blackbird Heavy Industries and Xingkong. Overtly and covertly, Blackbird Heavy Industries' behavior of not paying taxes was said to be rebellion and contempt for the governor's authority.
Gu Hang was prevaricated and sent back.
The fight against the Fachers family is your business, Fofana and Peddes brothers. It does not benefit me, so why should I be your thug?
Even if one day in the future, when If Gu Hang wants to completely unify the entire planet, he will inevitably face Blackbird Heavy Industries, but that is not now.
There is no eternal friendship, only eternal interests. There will be no future conflicts, so don’t delay and make some money now.
In this regard, Ye Lixia was completely at a loss.
Gu Hang did not label the people as traitors to the empire and approved their interstellar trade; the Beautiful Maiden was a serious member of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce and was qualified to do business. The two parties were conducting legitimate trade activities, and she had no suitable reason to attack and destroy them.
She could only hold her nose and watch Wang Jiarong, who represented Gu's Trading Company, exchanging supplies ship after ship with Blackbird Heavy Industries, which represented the Falches family, and her teeth itched with anger.
In the latest communication with the surface, she took her anger out on Gu Hang and asked him when he could find a suitable battle for the currently injured Quintet and earn another Point for meritorious service
She even lost her temper and threatened her twice
"If you can't find some suitable meritorious service, I won't stay"
< p>Facing the petty Yelicia, Gu Hang smiled and comforted her with a few words, and drew a few more cakes before feeding her, allowing her to go back and wait in peace.When Ye Lixia came back to her senses, she realized that she seemed to have been deceived by Gu Hang's mouth again, and she couldn't help but become angry again.
She also had a very bad idea. Gu Hang was probably taking advantage of this incident to cooperate with the Gu family and the Faches family to repair the relationship. The money paid by Blackbird Heavy Industry , essentially releasing goodwill to the Gu family
Even, is there some unknown and insidious activity here?
Thinking of this, Ye Lixia became even more annoyed.
"Gu Hang, you are so bad"
"Cousin, you are so bad"
During the call, Wang Jiarong expressed to Brother complained.
"I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense." Gu Hang denied it three times.
Wang Jiarong rolled her eyes. She had a better relationship with Gu Hang, so she asked some questions more directly, "Cousin, tell me the truth, do you still not want to reconcile with your family?" , I think it’s better to hug the leader of Peddes.”
"I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense." Gu Hang denied it three times again.
But it is not necessarily true that he did not think of this.
Blackbird Heavy Industries suffered a lot this time, and the 3.5 million tax coins made them very painful. And Gu Hang's surname cannot be changed. He belongs to the Gu family. It is said that the Fachers family is very doubtful about the sincerity of Gu's actions to repair the relationship with them. The Gu family was also very dissatisfied with Gu Hang's behavior. Several messages were called, but Gu Hang didn't answer any of them.
Why bother with him? Does it have anything to do with him? With the same surname as Gu, you can point fingers
In general, Ye Lixia and Wang Jiarong both think too much, or in other words, they both think Less.
Governor Gu, I don’t want to hug anyone’s thighs, and I want to pluck anyone’s wool.
Why should I follow the Peddes brothers? They got a governor-general appointment certificate that seemed to be of high value, but in fact they wanted to use me to drag my mother into the water. A cruiser was sent over to help, but shit No resources are given to build the planet.
It is impossible for Gu Hang to be grateful for this.
Dream.
It’s the same with Mrs. Gu and my mother. If you cut them ruthlessly in order not to be dragged into the water, then just cut them. Who has to rely on you?
Gu Hang didn’t do anything to them. A family can be treated as an enemy, but there is no need to be treated as one of the own.
Fair cooperation, win-win transactions. If the price is right, we'll do it; if it's not, we'll do it next time.
This was Gu Hang’s inner attitude.
Of course, you can do this, but there is no need to say it directly and hurt your feelings.
With the Gu family, we don’t speak the same dialect as our family; with the leader, it’s the kindness of knowing and meeting each other, which is a waste of time and energy.
No problem.
Gu Hang didn’t want to talk more about this matter with Wang Jiarong, so he changed the subject and talked about another matter
“By the way, those goods on your merchant ship, I There is already a list of requirements, and I already know how to pay."
Wang Jiarong rolled his eyes, "Is that the money Blackbird Heavy Industries gave you?"
Gu Hang. He also laughed and said, "Yes, they are really kind people."
He had no intention of keeping the 3.5 million tax coins promised by Blackbird Heavy Industries, and he couldn't lay eggs.
As for using tax coins to offset taxes later, that won’t work either.
Wealth is worthless if it is not used. Gu Hang would rather invest them all in production and territory development.
As for taxes, let’s talk about it in a year and a half.
The greater the investment and the greater the output of Gu Hang's territory, the less of a concern the imperial tax will be.
As for the things Gu Hang wants to buy, many of them are related to Space Marines.
First of all, it is what was promised to the Space Marines.
He promised to bring a high-quality, advanced gene studio that can perform gene implantation operations to the Phoenix Chapter.
Wang Jiarong’s quotation for this set of equipment is 500,000 tax coins.
According to her, this thing is not expensive, and some powerful battle groups also use this thing. The success rate of gene seed implantation surgery mainly depends on the qualifications of the person who undergoes the surgery. In addition, it also depends on the level of genetic technology of the person who performs the surgery.
General battle groups will have a special position called pharmacist, who is responsible for this work, including collecting the gene seeds of comrades on the battlefield and creating new recruits to provide new blood for the battle group.
Currently, the Phoenix Chapter does not have this position, but it is said that the old priest Rizzo used to be a pharmacist. I just hope that he will not be born again now.
In addition, a set of Terminator power armor is also needed, which Gu Hang promised to give to Martins.
The price quoted for this set of Terminator power armor is 800,000 tax coins.
Looking at these prices, Gu Hang could only say that things related to Space Marines are really expensive.
Gu Hang has estimated the value of his army.
Currently, he has three divisions and brigade-level organizations under his command: a combined division, a motorized infantry division, and a garrison division.
The most expensive army, that is, the mechanized composite brigades like the 1st Quenching Brigade and the 13th Brigade, the total cost including equipment and human lives is only about 200,000 tax coins.
The cost of the motorized infantry division is only half, worth only 100,000 tax coins.
The garrison division is worth seventy-five thousand.
A Space Marine Terminator powered armor is worth four composite divisions or eight motorized infantry divisions, the total cost including human lives and equipment
It’s outrageous
According to what Wang Jiarong said, she didn't make much money from the items she sold to Gu Hang. She basically sold them to him at whatever price she received them.
Gu Hang still believed this. He asked Ye Lixia and got the same answer.
Any one of these two women might lie to him, but no matter how good the relationship between the two of them was when they cooperated to fight for benefits, when it came to fighting for Gu Hang, they failed to do so. It is naturally contradictory. No one would give up giving the other person eye drops if given the chance.
When there was no problem with the price, Gu Hang couldn't help but doubt the cost-effectiveness of this thing.
A Terminator veteran can kill eight divisions
Gu Hang doesn’t believe it.
The pile will be piled up for you. No matter how thick the Terminator armor is, it is still individual armor. The 155 cannon cannot open a can. If you fire a hundred or a thousand rounds, the machine gun on the armored vehicle will blast you wildly. , the bolt machine gun fired hard, and the can was smashed by just relying on firepower.
It just means more people die.
However, he soon understood that the account could not be settled like this.
If you have a top-notch individual soldier and use him to compete with other organized regular armies, that would be because the commander is out of ideas.
At certain key strategic nodes,In certain places where the enemy cannot invest heavy firepower, in certain special combat missions, or in places where large-scale armies cannot enter, these super soldiers can demonstrate a higher value than a large army.
But no matter what, the total of 900,000 tax coins was promised to Phoenix by Gu Hang, so he should keep his promise.
Anyway, Martins, who took the Terminator, also worked for him, so rounding it off is equivalent to buying it for himself.
The same applies to gene seed implantation equipment.
In addition, Gu Hang also bought twenty sets of brand-new unpainted Space Marine power armor.
They are the seventh generation of tactical power armor, known as the Skyhawk type. They are the most common, widespread, and cheapest type of power armor today. The most typical feature is the breathing grid on the helmet.
But it is still worth a set of 40,000 tax coins.
A total of 20 sets of tactical power armor cost Gu Hang another 800,000 tax coins.
This made him sigh, "Now I know why a Space Marine Chapter needs an entire planet as a home planet to provide them with resources. A poorer planet really can't provide it." Get up."
Wang Jiarong sneered, "Where is this? Your current investment in the battle group has not yet reached a more expensive level."
She said. That's right.
A standard battle group not only needs battle armor and superhuman warriors, but also various vehicles and equipment unique to space warriors, a large number of auxiliary troops, and even a fleet.
Especially at the stage of the fleet, it is a bottomless pit of capital investment.
But fortunately, Gu Hang doesn't need to worry about these things now. He may even never configure a fleet belonging to the battle group for the Phoenix, which is not in line with his interests.
He just needs to meet the current needs of the Phoenix. He could always afford to support the four warriors who were still alive.
Of the 20 sets of tactical power armor he bought, Gu Hang only planned to give Martins five sets. It is said that it is a gift given to the two other warriors except Martins and Rizzo who have special armor to replace their old and tattered armors that have been battle-worn.
The old armor that he replaced was to be given to Gu Hang, saying that it would be used to offset the price.
Of course, Gu Hang actually stayed on his own.
There are also three pieces of armor, which are gifts for the three upcoming Space Marines and recruits.
As for the remaining 15 sets, Gu Hang planned to keep them for now.
If there is still need after Phoenix, then you can give them some more from these fifteen sets.
It is also possible that Gu Hang will try to redeem gene seeds in the future to create new space warriors, and these armors can also be put to use.
Raging Owl is still far away from being able to manufacture Space Marine power armor. Gu Hang doesn’t even know the manufacturing technology of power armor. In the technology tree worldWhat level is it inside?
Anyway, it is definitely not the basic level or the advanced level.
If I want to take it out, it’s probably still very far back.
Currently, the only way for him to obtain the armor is through interstellar trade.
Then don’t miss this opportunity.
After the Beautiful Maiden leaves, I don’t know when the next time a large-scale caravan will come.
In addition to these armors, Gu Hang also bought some other things that the Raging Star could not produce in the near future.
For example, melta weapons, power weapons, etc.
These things will also be given to the Phoenix Chapter, and some of them will be retained by myself.
In any case, the four warriors of the Phoenix Chapter have changed from one shot to another in this wave. Not only did Chapter Leader Martins get a Terminator power armor, but all weapons were also improved.
If you encounter something like an orc heavy-armed boss or a green-skinned warlord, you will at least have some means of dealing with them, and the fight will not be so brutal.
These weapons and equipment cost Gu Hang an additional 400,000 tax coins. The most expensive among them was a Blade of Honor power sword worth 200,000 tax coins. Gu Hang gave it to Martins and replaced the chain sword in his hand that was almost rotten.
Through this calculation, 3.5 million was extorted from Blackbird Heavy Industries, and 2.5 million was gone in one click.
There was still 1 million tax coins left, but Gu Hang also didn’t keep any.
He bought a lot of bits and pieces, including soilless farming technology, water purification technology, and high-quality grain stocks
These technologies and equipment can Help Gu Hang build five large-scale soilless farms. This type of technology should be consistent with the pre-war technology used by the Western Desert people on Angry Owl.
With these five large-scale farms, coupled with the synthetic starch technology production line that Wu Jiarong has conquered, the alliance's food self-sufficiency rate can be greatly increased.
I won’t go into details about the equipment and technology for water purification. The water in Nu Xiaoxing is not particularly clean. It can be solved a little bit. This equipment can handle wastewater treatment, reuse, and even seawater desalination.
In addition, a powered exoskeleton production line has also been introduced.
This thing is also quite expensive. Gu Hang estimated that it should be regarded as advanced technology, or one of the better basic-level technologies.
However, this thing is far from the real power armor. It is not difficult to implement. It can be mass-produced after introducing the production line, and it can also facilitate Wu Jiarong's subsequent reverse technology. As long as he can conquer it, he You can also expand your production line yourself.
At this point, the last one million tax coins have been spent.
The setting of the exoskeleton is similar to that of the movie Edge of Tomorrow. There is a picture below.
In addition, a sentence was deleted on the farm. Is the word "jiti farm" so sensitive? It was deleted. Why?The second half of the sentence about food self-sufficiency rate is not left out either.
