Chapter 45: Earth's Danger Follow-up II

Three months later, Zhao Deming once again set foot on the somewhat dry land of the Star Alliance headquarters, but this time his purpose was very simple, that is, to go to the Star Alliance Market to discuss things with the shop owner.

"I said Heihei, what do you think is the probability that we will succeed in this matter", Zhao Deming asked Prince Hagmeier who was walking beside him.

"The lord is not difficult in this matter, it depends on the price of the shot," Hei Hei replied.

The above way of calling is the result of the negotiation between the two of them on the way to the headquarters of the Star Alliance, Zhao Deming really hates the name of the master, and later has these titles.

"Well, that's right, I hope there is a good price, you also think about where we go next, it's best to have a little interesting long-term knowledge, you know" Zhao Deming looked at Hei Hei with some expectant eyes, hoping that Hei Hei could really understand what he meant.

"I understand what you're talking about, there are more than 100 light years nearby."

"Are you sure you really understand?" Zhao Deming was still a little skeptical.

"Isn't it just about men and women?"

"Okay, I'm sure you've got it"

In the bustling Covenant market, suddenly a black shadow moved quickly, followed by an Atfi slave who kept shouting "Lord, lord, you wait for me" This scene did not attract too many people's attention, and the people of the Covenant headquarters who have seen the big world always have some arrogance that other planets do not have.

"You stopped, our Hagmai tribe is not suitable for this, if only we could fly," said a little panting Hei Hei while holding Zhao Deming, afraid that he would run away again.

"Your body is a little weak," Zhao Deming half-jokingly said.

"We usually fly with wings, not to mention that this planet is relatively large, and I am already very good under such a large gravity"

"It seems that your original planet is very small, you have to strengthen your exercise in the future," Zhao Deming put his right hand on his chest and made a cheering gesture.

"Okay lord, I'm rested and ready to go"

"That ......" Zhao Deming scratched his head and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up this time, so you can go ahead."

"Hmm" After agreeing, Hei Hei began to walk in front, but after he walked more than a dozen steps, he suddenly turned his head and said to Zhao Deming: "You don't know the way and ask me to go ahead!" ”

The owner's hospitality is still warm and respectful.

"What kind of slave do you want to buy today, the Human Commissioner?" The shopkeeper said.

"I'm no longer a commissioner, now I'm just an ordinary customer of you," Zhao Deming smiled and waved his hand.

"Haha......" The shopkeeper burst into a hearty laugh before he added, "The commissioner is really good at laughing, according to our latest intelligence, the Earth Coalition Government has not elected a new human commissioner, so you are still "

"Looks like I'm still going to get a discount"

"That's, that's"

"But I'm not here to buy anything this time, I wonder if the boss has a convenient place to speak?" Zhao Deming, who pretended to be mysterious, kept his last words low.

The understanding shopkeeper didn't say anything, and after making a gesture of please, he led them to a hut.

"I wonder what kind of business the committee members are planning to discuss this time?" The shopkeeper said first.

Seeing that the shopkeeper was so direct, Zhao Deming also felt that there was nothing to hide, after all, where was the intelligence network of the people, and it was estimated that people already knew about his own little things, so he simply told it all, and after giving the shopkeeper a list, the shopkeeper began to be busy, which was that he was a little idle, and began to discuss the next plan with Heihei.

"Don't think so dirty about the previous things, I just want to know more about this new world," Zhao Deming tried to explain.

"The next place we are going to is the most brilliant night pearl in the entire Star Alliance, the eternal city of Starport, I think this place will definitely open your eyes"

The shopkeeper, who had already had a result of "that ......", carefully interrupted Zhao Deming's conversation.

Seeing the shopkeeper who appeared beside him, Zhao Deming also put down the conversation with Heihei, turned to face the shopkeeper and said, "Is there a result?" ”

"Yes, a rough estimate is nearly 40 million Star Coins, and this does not include fees"

"And the processing fee?" Zhao Deming regretted it after saying it, this kind of thing must have a handling fee, and Zhao Deming, who really wanted to shoot himself, could only find a way to get the words back, "Look at my pig brain, this kind of stupid question can be asked, I don't know how you can collect it"

After hearing Zhao Deming shouting out the question of charging fees, the shopkeeper was also stunned for a moment, and then thought that it should be Zhao Deming's slip of the tongue, and then Zhao Deming's explanation confirmed his judgment, "Human Commissioner, we will not charge you a penny of handling fees"

"You ...... Don't charge? Hearing this, Zhao Deming's eyes widened, and his face was incredulous, "Can you give me an explanation?" ”

"Have you forgotten who we are?" The shopkeeper said respectfully.

"Aren't you defectors among the followers, do you have any other identities?"

"Honorable Human Commissioner, please take a good look at me, I think you understand"

"Look at you?" After Zhao Deming muttered in his heart, he carefully observed the shopkeeper, who was about two meters tall, stout, and very rough in appearance, a typical follower, all that was left was the same eyes and mouth as everyone else, "No, is the key point of the matter ......?"

"Alas......" Zhao Deming let out a long sigh before he said, "You want to talk about human beings?"

I don't know when the shopkeeper has cried red eyes, and said with a little choked up: "Yes, we almost became humans who lost their home planet, and the Atlanteans have a cruiser at the bottom of the sea, or ..... It's really scary to think about it."

"Are you still hostile to the Atlanteans?" Zhao Deming put forward this acute question in a timely manner, the division of followers is the largest division in the human race, although there are some contradictions within the human race on the earth, but they can be completely resolved through negotiation or something, and it is difficult for followers to resolve the contradictions through negotiation, a previous war directly split the followers into three parts, the followers who still follow the Atlanteans, the defectors who rebelled and fled, and a planet where the followers lived in the early days, and are still followers who maintain the state of ancient life.

"I ...... I can only speak for myself, and this grudge that has been accumulated for tens of thousands of years may be over......" The shopkeeper sighed long.

"You are a good start, I believe that there will be more people like you in the near future, when all of us human beings will unite under one banner and ask the entire galaxy to look up to us" Perhaps driven by the mood of the shopkeeper, Zhao Deming also improvised his own little emotion.

"With a human commissioner like you, I believe I can see that day," the shopkeeper who sighed for a long time before the change looked at Zhao Deming very solemnly and said.

Zhao Deming, who wanted the shopkeeper to look at it with such a serious expression, was also a little awkward, and then said, "Boss, what are you doing?"

"Don't underestimate yourself too much, I'm sure someone has said something similar"

"I don't know if I said it, I think we should get back to the topic, the money should be ......"

Hearing Zhao Deming talk about money, the shopkeeper first gave himself a "snap" in the mouth, Zhao Deming and they all felt pain when they heard it, and then continued: "Don't mind, the old problem of lack of concentration is that it should be hit, you said this money, I arranged it for you like this, these things can't be realized immediately, so we decided to give you the 40 million first, and then wait for ......"

"You wait first, how can I listen to you as if I know how much money I need" Zhao Deming looked at the shopkeeper with suspicion.

"This ...... I'm afraid you misunderstood us," the shopkeeper couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw Zhao Deming like this, "The 40 million star coins you see now are the money we collectively put together, in order to do our best, as for the money that was sold, then you really have to wait."

After knowing that he had misunderstood the shopkeeper, Zhao Deming also immediately bowed and apologized, which asked the shopkeeper on the side to hurry up to stop it, but Zhao Deming still bowed deeply three times before saying: "I am not only for you alone, but also for the people who care about the fate of human beings on our earth, I thank you, it is you who want us to have the courage to stand up and fight again."

"You think too highly of us, we just did what we thought we should do" The owner politely said.

"I am proud that we humans have such wonderful talents as you, and I find that the people of Earth are in dire need of your help."

"What do you mean?"

"Oh, that's right, I have a not-so-mature idea, I want you to give full play to your own strengths, link your intelligence system with our fleet to set up an exclusive intelligence network, so that you don't have to rely on the intelligence system of the Atlanteans, for which I can pay you 10 million for the activity first, you see......"

The shopkeeper directly waved his hand to interrupt Zhao Deming's conversation, and then said: "You also know that we are an organization, so there are some things that I don't count alone, just as far as I am concerned, I can donate all my property, but it will be a little difficult to put it in the organization, but the intelligence you said is not without a turnaround, I can first propose to do intelligence sharing, and then consider the next step, which is good for you and me."

Zhao Deming also kept nodding yes, it seems that he is still a little anxious, but his next plan should not be so troublesome, and after sorting out his thoughts a little, he said: "The matter of intelligence sharing is like this first, and the next thing I want to say is that I need you to use all the money from the sale of stolen goods to buy basic industrial facilities, such as those basic industrial ...... needed for ship manufacturing."

The shopkeeper waved his hand again and said: "A complete set of basic industrial systems is not something that can be smashed by a few dollars, not to mention that you don't have any money, just talk about ship manufacturing, if it goes well, it is already a very good achievement for the human beings on the earth to build a frigate within five years."

"And what do you mean?" Zhao Deming didn't quite understand what the shopkeeper meant.

"I mean, this money doesn't mean much to a human being who doesn't have any space industry base, so you might as well do something else?"

"Like what?"

"This is more, the financial class with a greater risk, and the small one can also invest in some companies, in short, it is stronger than which ones you do."

Zhao Deming pondered the words of the shopkeeper repeatedly, and always felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't say why, in his constant pacing, he inadvertently glanced at Hei Hei and asked him to suddenly realize, it turned out that the crux was here.
