054 People die for money, birds die for food
The Karajita Consortium, the Ledai Consortium, and the Vicmi Consortium are all fanatical patriot camps, advocating that the interests of the country should be the first priority, and that there should be no compromise on all people and things that hinder the development of the Federation.
On the contrary, both the Ishiko Foundation and the Mishima Foundation are more moderate, advocating freedom and equality internally, and are willing to sit down and negotiate externally, compromise when necessary, and avoid fighting if war can be avoided.
The consortium has been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years, relying on their own survival philosophy, and no one intends to change it, and it has been passed down from generation to generation. The older generation is more subtle, as long as they don't involve issues of principle, they can still sit together and be hypocritical, so that outsiders can look closer than their own brothers.
But young people do not have such a deep cultivation, and family differences directly turn into personal contradictions between them, as long as they spend their childhood, after a little understanding, they often regard the future of the family as their own responsibility, trying to defeat all opponents.
When they don't meet, they attack each other in the media, and when they meet, they simply form gangs and fight openly, from clothes and snacks to technology products, no matter how small things can always make the sword rattling.
In addition, there are three large conglomerates that belong to the wall, and they form a third faction, whose purpose is to put interests first. No matter what happens, the first thing to consider is one's own gains and losses, and if there are interests, even if it is not good for the country, you have to do it; There is no interest, the country is a fart, and my father has to refuse when he comes.
Whether it is patriotism or equality, it is a fart for them, and everything that makes money is mixed in, and everything that loses money is opposed. Although his reputation is not very good, he still does his own thing. In order to resist attacks from other consortia, these three consortia also formed a group and became a third force to be reckoned with in the Federation.
The reason why Hong Tao didn't see that it was the three factions was also the way of life of the interests supreme faction. Unless the time comes to make their stance clear, the three consortia never take sides, always drifting between the other two forces and carefully maintaining a balance.
"My opponent can't happen to be one of the Patriots, right?" Daley's eloquence is very good, although he tries to keep his voice as low as possible, but the yin and yang are very rhythmic. With such a conscientious commentator, it would be very inappropriate for Hong Tao to not understand it, not only did he understand it, but he also made corresponding insights for the first time.
"Hey, hey, hey...... You see, Claire has staked her ship on you. Since my mother's death, she has rarely come home, and she is not wealthy, and it would be very sad and uncomfortable if the ship was gone. ”
Seeing Hong Tao like this, Daley showed a smile similar to Claire's. Clearly, his purpose was achieved. In order to let Hong Tao use all his strength to fight, another chip was added.
"You even calculate your own sister together, don't you just sit by and don't bet on something?" Looking at the betting information on the virtual image in front of him, Hong Tao felt that Claire had done her a disservice.
If she doesn't bet, she will still have a nest even if she loses. It's good now, even the spaceship is betting, and if you win, you can indeed get the corresponding bet of the other party, but once you lose, you will be bankrupt. For this reason, I have to add some more lottery to myself, this is a game that can only be won and not lost.
"I don't participate in these kinds of games, and it's stupid to put your hopes in someone else. But today I'm going to make an exception for you, the Ominous, the legend who can live independently on the planet Voshen, let me see your skills, and teach him a hard lesson not to be soft, and fight to the death when the mastermind stops! As long as you can win this game, all the costs of the double escape pod will be paid by me, after all, Claire and I are a family, even if it is a gift for my sister! ”
What does it mean to watch the excitement and not be afraid of big things? Daley is that kind of person. Hong Tao is absolutely sure that Claire's brother is a loyal black monster with a loyal face, and he has no good intentions towards his sister.
But what he said was really exquisite, containing not only the love of brother and sister, but also the encouragement of the same hatred. Even if he is killed, he will not be blamed, and when the time comes, he will be able to turn his head and smile secretly.
"If I could add a few more bets, I think I could try your way. For example, the Consciousness Scanner may be a clone pilot in the near future, and it would be a good start to have my own consciousness transfer device like Miss Claire. ”
It's a pity that Hong Tao can't refute it, and he can't blame it, and he can't be passive and slack off, in that case, Claire's evening dress number will be gone. Since you can only be used as a gunman, let's just make your life more valuable.
"Absolutely...... I also have a nice spaceship that has been parked in the space station. It's been upgraded several times over the years, but it's a pity that there are too many trivial things and I haven't used it once. If you can get that black guy to scream in public, it's yours. ”
Compared to Claire's hard character, Daly should be considered a very qualified businessman, willing to pay the cost as long as the goal is achieved. In the blink of an eye, a silver-shining destroyer-class spaceship appeared in front of Hong Tao's eyes.
It must have been heavily altered, and the original model is not visible from the exterior at all. Although it is not as big as the evening dress, the shape is very in line with Hong Tao's aesthetics, not so strange, it is a standard conical shape, and the body is clean and tidy.
Glancing at the guy opposite, whose skin was not too dark, Hong Tao swallowed. At least two meters tall, the upper body of the big fan is full of muscles, the fingers are very thick, and the fists are almost half the size of his head.
I wanted to say that the ship was too small, and then bargain with Daley. At this time, the big black man happened to look at him, looked at each other and made a gesture to this side, as if pressing his head under his crotch.
"Deal!" Gotcha, don't blame the buddy for being ruthless, this is what you asked for, even if there is no bet on the spaceship, Hong Tao plans to retaliate and retaliate, it's too cheap!
"An ominous person from the planet Voshen, Aite. Flood! His opponent was the eventual winner of the fight, Lutherin from the Karajita Group. Ollie! ”
At this moment, the voice of the mastermind rang out, followed by cheers from the audience. Finally it was Hong Tao's turn to play, not only was the mastermind introduced in the courtyard, but also the family crests of the two people were reflected in the air, representing Hong Tao was the big mouse head on the back.
"Your brother is such a genius!"
When he heard the origin of his opponent, Hong Tao couldn't help but smile bitterly. When Daley introduced Lutherine, he only said his first name, not his last name, and now he knows that his surname is Ollie. Don't ask, this is the direct second generation of the Karajita consortium, and he got into a big trouble in order to solve Claire's predicament.
"Aite, remember our agreement, as long as he takes the initiative to admit defeat, the consciousness transfer equipment and spaceship will be yours!" When the mastermind announced the entrance, Daley came to Hong Tao's side again. This grandson doesn't have the ability to do it himself, but he is quite good at finding helpers. If the big black guy wins, he won't lose, and if he wins, he will earn blood.
But his bet is really not easy to win, after so many games, no player has taken the initiative to admit defeat, even if he is broken bones, he is just screaming, and he is not convinced until the mastermind announces the result.
This kind of competition may not only be a holiday event, but also involve the face of the family. Everyone is the second and third generation of various consortia, and if they can't be the successors in the future, they will become a stain for a lifetime if they are soft in public.
It's not easy to do mentally, but it's also a technical level. It's useless to play lightly, and the mastermind will directly determine the result of the game in order to protect the players, and there is no waiting for the torture and persecution.
But it's not impossible, if it's not possible at all, Hong Tao won't accept Daley's conditions. In the past, he used to cheat others by betting on himself, but now there are people who want to deal with him in turn. Then try it and see who is plucking whom.
This kind of self-confidence is not untargeted, almost all the games Hong Tao has watched, and found a very interesting detail. The players on the ring used all the boxing and kicking techniques, as well as knee and elbow techniques, but the only thing you didn't see was the wrestling skills. When one side falls to the ground, the other usually continues to attack with their feet, or simply gets up and fights again, never dwelling on the ground.
