Chapter 1352: Dwarves, Sycophants!
Clouds loom over and nightmares return.
After the news of the air raid on Alcatraz Island spread across the planet, many people began to panic.
A few months ago, a mysterious force came to Desert City, powerful in technology and ruthless in means, which turned the entire marauder civilization upside down, and the original social order and power structure were all broken.
Many of the traditional big forces and big conglomerates led by the Erno Industrial Group have ceased to exist, and have been replaced by a chaotic situation of small forces and small gangs scattered in the sand, of course, most of the land and sea on the planet have become the sphere of influence of the Lan Tatars, and no one dares to trespass.
At this point, Lan Tart has become synonymous with 'Grim Reaper'.
When the major races on the planet Kabola heard the name Lan Tatar, they all changed their complexions, and the children cried at night, as long as the parents said that Lan Tatar was coming, even the children were too scared to cry.
And now, after a few months of peace, devastating air raids have returned.
The world is so big, where is home?
Is Lan Tatar really going to wipe out all the races on this planet?
But how to explain that he could have wiped out all the races in one fell swoop a few months ago and completely turned the planet of Cabora into his own, but instead of killing them all, he left many places empty and did not send an army of robots to occupy them, so that the various races have a place to recuperate, why did he do this?
Man is a knife, I am a fish!
On the planet Capora, it can be said that Lan Tartary is a dominant family, killing whoever he wants and destroying whoever he wants.
But after a few months of peace and tranquility, and suddenly attacking Alcatraz again, it is too unpredictable to play cards like this.
For a time, all kinds of rumors flew all over the sky.
Some people say that after a few months of recuperation, the rest of the army and the stockpiling of supplies, it is time to complete the battle and completely annihilate all the intelligent life races, so as to occupy the entire planet of Capora.
Some people also say that Lan Tatar is just interested in Alcatraz Island and intends to turn it into his own territory, not to kill them all, after all, in Lan Tatar's territory, aren't there still people who are alive and well?
Even, I heard that in the territory of Lan Tatar, even clones can live and work in peace and contentment, but they are governed by robots according to the law, transportation, industry, commerce, education, economy, etc., and there is a unified currency circulation and use, unlike local factions such as Alcatraz Island, which are numerous, free and scattered, and full of strife.
Of course, there are also some races who can't sit still, they really don't want to live this kind of life of fear and fear, and would rather join the camp of Lan Tatar, accept his rule and management, although they have to abide by the law and pay taxes, but at least life is peaceful, and they don't have to worry about dying either under the sudden air raid or dying in the battle between the gang forces.
At the time of this panic, the Ikeri clan, who themselves belonged to a small minority, were the first to react.
It's night.
Shortly after Qin Tian drove the gyroplane to carry Feng Peng back to Desert City, he was about to take an interstellar car and quickly return to Halak Planet with a space jump, when the 'Reaper' artificial intelligence system sent a message.
"The patriarch of the Ikori tribe, Bablosala, has asked the entire clan to move in, and is willing to accept all the policies of dominion?"
Qin Tian glanced at the content of the message, and immediately became interested.
Feng Peng saw that Qin Tian was still stunned, and couldn't help but turn his head and shout: "Hey, I said you are going or not? I'm still waiting to go back to Zekahay for supper!"
Qin Tian shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "You go back first! I still have something to do!"
"What's the matter? Just your temper, you will blow up the island if you don't agree with each other, shouldn't you be angry, and you have to kill on a killing spree?"
Feng Peng frowned and said with disdain.
"What do you say? Do you think I'm like a ruthless butcher? Okay, okay, you go quickly, I don't have anything to eat here to greet you!"
Qin Tian walked away as he spoke.
Feng Peng paused, secretly shook his head and bowed to the interstellar speeder, and sat down according to the standard procedure.
Soon, under the impact of surging energy, the interstellar speed car suddenly set out and disappeared in an instant.
Qin Tian didn't wait for Feng Peng to arrive at the Harak planet, and after coming out of the base, he immediately ordered the 'Reaper' artificial intelligence system to arrange high-speed air and space transport planes and shadow unmanned fighters to pick up the patriarch of the Ikori clan, Bablosala and his party, and if there were other forces or races that wanted to choose to join, they would all take them over.
After the order was issued, Qin Tian piloted a Fighting Falcon Sky Fighter directly to Bickwell.
Bickwell used to be the most important industrial city of the Carbolas Electric Industry Group, rich in resources, rich in minerals, sound system, and extremely developed industrial strength, so that Bickwell was once the main battlefield for the two sides.
Months have passed, the smoke of Bickwell's offensive and defensive battles has long since dissipated, and even the wreckage of the chariots has long been pulled back to the furnace and rebuilt.
In the second interstellar battle with the Garan Empire, there were high-speed interstellar frigates that served as cannon fodder on the battlefield, and most of the modular components were produced here, and then sent by large aerospace planes to the off-planet space base dock to assemble and build ships, so the importance of Bickwell is self-evident.
Although Bickwell is highly militarized and intelligent, and has an extremely strict air-space-ground three-defense integrated defense system, but in the south of the city, the first batch of clones who were rescued by Qin Tian have long lived and worked in peace and contentment.
To make it easier to manage, the Reaper AI system built a 10-meter-high and 100-kilometer-long wall between Bickwell and the new city.
To the north of the wall, it is strictly forbidden for anyone and aircraft to enter, and trespassing is absolutely killing, while to the south of the wall, there are random major races to inhabit and develop, but the premise is to accept the jurisdiction and rule of the Robocop, and the good law and order has almost reached the situation of not closing the door at night, and such a livable public security environment has also continuously attracted many races to migrate.
In just a few months, the city, which was named 'Hope', grew bigger and bigger.
Qin Tian glanced at the report and found that the registered population of Hope City was already 2.03 million people, and the number of various races had reached 17, and in just a few months, it had created a gross production value of more than 10 billion yuan and provided nearly one billion yuan in taxes.
In contrast, within the nearly 30 million square kilometers controlled by the 'Reaper' artificial intelligence system, the population and tax contribution of Hope City are not the largest, but you must know that the previous Hope City was completely a wasteland, with only one or two thousand clones at the beginning, while other cities all have a certain commercial economy and population base.
The reason why the economic development of the city is so rapid is that on the one hand, there is a large foreign population, and if outsiders want to settle down, they must have the demand for food, clothing, housing and transportation, which produces the economic demand for commodity consumption.
On the other hand, it is close to the super industrial city of Bickwell, Qin Tian and the Garan Empire are in a hurry, and they want to build a large number of interstellar warships, space fighters, various ship-borne weapons and ammunition, space reconnaissance satellites, etc., which has an extremely huge war demand.
Although it is hoped that no one in the city has the ability to process on behalf of others, all products are processed and manufactured by Bickwell's smart factory, but they can go around to mine and purchase, and then sell the production materials to Bickwell's material acquisition station, and those intelligent robots will give different purchase prices according to the quality of raw materials.
Especially when the task of building interstellar warships is urgent and there is a great demand for various parts, the 'Reaper' artificial intelligence system provides some processing equipment, process drawings, etc., and the residents in Hope City open small factories and workshops to produce and manufacture some relatively unimportant parts, such as bolts, screws, etc., which will not occupy the production capacity of the smart factory.
In this way, the interstellar war between Qin Tian and the Garan Empire made Hope City earn a 'war dividend' and seize the opportunity to achieve rapid economic development, which cannot but be said to be a miracle.
……
Airplanes~
The Fighting Falcon space fighter automatically landed at the airport east of Hope City, which is not a large airport but has two very long runways.
The space fighter plane landed vertically directly in the parking area, and as soon as Qin Tian came out of the flight cockpit, he saw a four-engine heavy transport plane roaring down.
Burst~
The wheels touched the runway and sent out a cloud of smoke, the transport plane roared and continued to taxi forward to slow down, the engine had turned on thrust revers, and the piercing hum resounded through the airport.
After taxiing more than 1,000 meters, the transport plane slowed down, and then slowly left the runway and walked along the taxiway to the cargo terminal, where large and conspicuous markings on the fuselage and tail indicated that the transport plane belonged to Dada Cargo.
If the rapid development of Hope City is a miracle, then Dada Freight Company is a miracle of miracles.
Lifa, who founded the company, belongs to the dwarf clan, and he is not tall, but he is quite smart.
At the beginning, he was just a small captain in the air cargo fleet of the Dawei Group, and when the Dawei Group collapsed, he took all the crew of the fleet and three cargo planes to come to Toucheng decisively, and after taking root in Hope City, he began to run shipping within the sphere of influence controlled by the 'Reaper' artificial intelligence system.
At the beginning, Lifa organized a transport plane to mainly transport daily necessities, and the population of Hope City was increasing, and the demand for food, clothes, medicines, toiletries and other daily necessities gradually increased, but there was no such factory in Hope City, so he arranged for transport planes to be transported to other cities.
Then, Lifa collected more transport planes, and built his own hangar, oil storage, maintenance plant, material warehouse, etc., and he began to collect all kinds of industrial raw materials that Bickwell needed, whether it was broken copper and iron or rare earth minerals, he would transport whatever was valuable.
Compared with those who use automobiles and other materials to carry out the transportation of materials, Lifa's air transportation is not only large in volume, fast in speed, but also in long distances.
For example, more than 4,000 kilometers away, if the rich titanium ore is cheap, and Bickwell is in urgent need of titanium, he can immediately arrange for someone to purchase it locally, and then intensively arrange a cargo plane to go, and thousands of tons will be poured over in a day.
Under this constant upside-down, I didn't expect Dada Cargo Company to get bigger and bigger, and now this airport in Hope City is about to become his family's main flight base.
Qin Tian stopped and watched for a while, in just a few minutes, the cargo plane of Dada Cargo Company took off and landed three sorties, and the cargo plane equipped with four pulse detonation high-thrust engines can carry more than 400 tons of goods at a time.
The world is crowded, all for profit.
Business-minded people really don't starve to death anywhere.
Suddenly!
A luxury car came at a gallop, and it had already flown a long way, but it suddenly turned around and came back and stopped in front of Qin Tian.
This sudden situation immediately made the battle robot next to Qin Tian immediately enter a state of alert, and one after another blasters aimed at the limousine, as long as Qin Tian gave an order, or the other party had any abnormal behavior, it would definitely be critted on the spot and smashed into a sieve.
The door opened, and a round head poked out, shouting in the dwarven language, "Don't shoot, it's me!"
With a shout, a short and fat boy who was less than one meter tall jumped out of the car and waved at Qin Tian with a smile several meters away.
"Boss Lan Tatar, long time no see!"
Seeing the smiling round face of the short and fat Lifa, Qin Tian involuntarily appeared in his mind some funny scenes of the two of them, the corners of his lips raised slightly and smiled faintly, Qin Tian beckoned, and Lifa ran over with a little radish leg and a fart.
In fact, Qin Tian had only met Li Fa once, and it was a long time ago, when the 'Reaper' artificial intelligence system reacted that someone wanted to open a company to do business, and the artificial intelligence system didn't know how to choose, so it was handed over to Qin Tian to deal with it personally.
That time, Qin Tian chatted with Li Fa for less than a minute through video connection, and agreed with his idea of starting a company, but he never thought that this guy's memory is really good, he is worthy of being a dwarf, and all the condensed products are high-quality products!
Of course, the title of 'Lan Tatar Boss' is the result of simultaneous translation, in fact, the pronunciation of Lifa is 'Kakolu', among their dwarf clan, this is the meaning of leader, commander, adult, etc., and the intelligent voice translation to Qin Tian simply uses the boss to express it, which is also very appropriate.
When she runs, she looks like an overly obese elementary school student, twisting her fat waist and round head, and her short legs are extremely fast, but the speed is still very touching.
In just a few meters, it took three or four seconds for Lifa to run close, and he was still out of breath.
With this physical fitness, Qin Tian didn't know how the Great Ring Group had selected pilots from the dwarf clan in the first place, just because they were small and lightweight, and their brains were quite smart?
"Boss, I've finally met you in person, you're taller and more handsome than you look in the video connection!"
Lifa smiled and did not hesitate to praise, and his sycophant behavior was too obvious.
Because Li Fa's height is too 'amazing', he looks up at Qin Tian, and Qin Tian looks down at him.
Looking at Li Fa's flattering look, Qin Tian said with a smile: "A person's height is not important, the key is that the brain must be smart enough to know how to judge the situation and know how to advance and retreat, and just like a smart person like Li Fa, you can be prosperous in this troubled world!"
"Boss, you're praising it! I'll just follow the boss to eat, no matter how good the business is, it doesn't have to rely on the boss to cover it!"
Li Fa said, his eyes dripping and looking around, seeing three domineering and exposed space fighters parked behind Qin Tian, he couldn't help but smile puzzled and asked: "Boss, are you here to inspect and guide the work?" If you are not busy, I will take you to my place to see, the company has been established until now, you have not been here!"
Qin Tian raised his wrist and looked at the time, and said, "I'm here to wait for the Ikori Clan's patriarch Bablosala and them, it is estimated that they will be here for a while, so let's go to your place!"
"Okay, okay! Come on, boss, please here!"
Li Fa hurriedly led the way in front, and he ran with a smile and small steps, which was not as fast as Qin Tian's leisurely walk.
When he arrived at the car, Li Fa still wanted to open the door for Qin Tian, but as soon as the door opened, everyone else was blocked by the car door.
The moment Qin Tian got into the car, he regretted it a little, his head almost touched the roof of the car, and his feet could almost only curl up, very aggrieved.
But fortunately, Li Fa reacted quickly, and after he followed up in the co-pilot position, he immediately adjusted the seat, which finally made Qin Tian less aggrieved.
The limousine started slowly, and the driver didn't drive fast.
Although the combat robots that are closely protected can maintain a speed of about 60 kilometers per hour on foot, the current speed of 30 miles is almost like a walk for them.
Inside the car.
Lifa seized the time to start introducing his business.
"Boss, I now have 11 cargo planes, have the right to operate 8 cargo routes, the recent period is mainly to transport ore, Bickwell has a relatively large demand for rare earth ore recently......"
"In the next step, I plan to invest in mining on the ammonia side, build two more smelters and chemical plants, and expand the scale of the business, with enough chemical raw materials, I can start a clothing business......
In the gushing introduction of Lifa, the limousine slowly drove to the door of the hangar of the Dada Cargo Company.
Three large cargo planes that have just returned from the voyage are unloading, and each standard container is filled with high-quality mineral sands of high purity, which will be hoisted onto trailers and transported directly to Bickwell for purification and smelting, and then made into parts for starships.
Qin Tian took a look, and the busy workers were not dwarves, but pilots, ground technicians, and so on were dwarves.
Especially in small places such as the suction port and tail vent of the pulse detonation engine, the petite dwarf is more nimble and comfortable in small places such as the suction port and tail vent of the pulse detonation engine.
"How many people has your company hired so far?" Qin Tian suddenly interrupted Lifa's rambling and asked.
Li Fa crossed his waist with one hand, pointed around, and said in high spirits: "I started to implement the departmental system a month ago, this is the shipping department, there are 104 employees, in addition to the marketing department, procurement department and other departments, including me, there are a total of 312 people!"
"Wow! There are more than 300 people, and the business is getting bigger and bigger!"
"Don't boast about it, boss, I'll be proud!" said with a smile that Rifa couldn't hide his smile.
Qin Tian thought about it, after the Alcatraz Island was bombed, there were many races and tribes who asked to join, and if they wanted to obey the management and live and work in peace and contentment without making trouble, they had to have stable employment first.
If you don't have a job, you don't have a source of income, and if you don't have enough to eat, of course, you will get into trouble.
So, solving the problem is a top priority.
It's just that people like the Ikori like to hunt and eat, and if they are placed in Hope City, it is estimated that they can only do catering, and there are no deep sea lakes in this area suitable for them to hunt.
Led by Lifa, the two soon arrived at his office.
Surprisingly, although the Lifa people were short, they hired a tall and temperamental beautiful woman as a secretary, with a sweet smile and a pleasant voice, which almost melted people.
Li Fa is looking like enjoyment, commanding the secretary to do this and that, snorting and drinking.
After the secretary took the drink and snacks and left, Qin Tiancai smiled and said: "I said Lifa, you are quite good at enjoying it! You don't find a dwarf girl to marry and have children, and hire such a beautiful woman as a female secretary, do you want to change your genes?"
Lifa smiled embarrassedly, "The boss is just my secretary, I don't have any other thoughts about her, and you should know that the organs of the dwarves are also ...... Hehe, you know!"
"Then it seems that you are powerless!"
"It's not like it's too worrying!" said Lifa, sighing.
Qin Tian raised his eyebrows, subconsciously looked at Lifa, skipped the topic and said: "Don't digress, in a while, the patriarch of the Ikori clan, Bablosala, will bring many of them to join him, but you also know that the Ikori clan is a very special race, if you want to settle them, what is your opinion?"
"The Ikorians?"
Lifa scratched the back of his head and pouted: "Hope City is a typical inland area, there are no big rivers and large enough freshwater lakes, they are not easy to live in, I think it is better to place them in the seaside city, of course, if there are a few Ikori people who are willing to come to Hope City, let them make catering, they are the best!"
Qin Tian nodded slightly, and then asked, "What if it's the Bada clan?"
Li Fa smiled and said: "The Bada clan is very easy to arrange! They are naturally tall and powerful, although the IQ is not high, but they are hardworking, if it were me, I would train them to be workers, working in the factory, that is absolutely serious and responsible, will not play cautious and petty means!"
"But what if it's a normal human like me?" Qin Tian asked again with interest.
Lifa was silent.
"Uh...... I think it's good to solve the problem of housing, give them too good resettlement conditions, but let them develop the habit of being lazy and prone to problems, and if they want to live a better life, let them work hard to abide by the law and discipline!"
……
The questions and answers of the two lasted for a long time.
There are many races on the planet of Capora, and it is not easy to settle them properly, after all, Qin Tian does not know much about each of their races, and Lifa is different, he has been doing business for a long time and dealing with major races, and he knows exactly what race and what virtue.
After chatting briefly for a while, Qin Tian suddenly had an idea.
"Hey Lifa, I see that you have a very smart brain and know these races very well, then I will simply appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the multi-racial migration and resettlement operation, and you will be responsible for the contact and resettlement, you just need to be able to adapt to the situation, adapt measures to local conditions, and coexist peacefully!"
Yes?
Li Fa let out an exclamation and asked with a shocked face: "Boss, this is the second time we have met, and you will entrust me with such a heavy responsibility, aren't you afraid that I will use my power for personal gain?"
Qin Tian smiled evilly and said, "Bickwell and Hope City are separated by a wall, if you have the guts, I can turn the fruits of your hard work for half a lifetime into ashes in minutes, including you and your beautiful female secretary, of course!"
The corners of Lifa's lips twitched slightly, and she squeezed out a wry smile.
He was very direct in slapping Qin Tian's ass, and Qin Tian's coercion and temptation were even more direct.
"That'...... Then I will do my best to ensure that things are done properly!"
Li Fa knew that he couldn't give in, so he could only take this errand head-on.
"Don't complain in your heart, although I didn't pay you a salary, as long as you don't transgress the rules, I can give you full freedom, so that you can quickly build a super huge business empire, and the rich armor is unrivaled in the world!"
Qin Tian stood up, walked to the door, and suddenly turned around and smiled. "Start your duties now, and receive and settle the Ikori Patriarch Bablosala and his party, this is your first mission!"
"By the way, these two combat robots are left for you, if you want to ask for anything and do something, just tell them!"
Lifa nodded reluctantly. "Rest assured, boss, it's guaranteed!"
Seeing Qin Tian go away, Li Fa looked at the two combat robots beside him, and cold sweat involuntarily oozed from his back.
After being stunned for two seconds, Li Fa ran out in a panic, shouting loudly as he ran: "Boss, wait, I'll send you!"
In a hurry to go out, Lifa hit his head on the secretary's tall and slender thigh.
"Wow, it's soft, it's fragrant, it's bouncy!"
Hearing this, Qin Tian almost didn't fall down the steps, and secretly sighed that the dwarf race was really awesome, and the condensed one was really the best......
