The afternoon negotiations took less than half an hour to end, and Mei Yuqi told Xiong Bao that she had an urgent matter to leave Juze, and the negotiations had to be terminated early.

Xiong Bao was quite disappointed by this, but there was no way, after all, he couldn't forcibly keep the other party, so he could only politely send people away.

Shangguanqi and Liu Yi said to Xiong Bao: "Since the business has not been negotiated, we have to go back in advance, and I hope that there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future." ”

Xiong Bao apologized a little to Shangguanqi and said, "It's not easy for the two of you to come here, it's better to play for a few more days, and I'll accompany the two of you to have a good tour." ”

Shangguanqi smiled: "No, I still have a lot of things, so I won't bother this time, let's talk about it next time." ”

Bidding farewell to Xiong Bao, the two took the train back to Tanyuan, and returned to the White Rock Fortress on the spaceship.

Since Liu Yi has secretly established a cooperative relationship with Mei Yuqi, there is no need to contact Xiong Bao in the future.

Liu Yi's idea was to first go abroad, look for the wreckage of the space city that could be recycled near Tuoyuan Star and Bai Wenxing, and then find a way to transport it back to the White Stone Fortress, and then start building factories outside the White Stone Fortress.

After a series of things in Yaqiu, Liu Yi deeply realized the fact that if he does not have his own territory, he will be controlled by others everywhere.

Take Yaqiu as an example, it took several years of hard work for Liu Yi and the Provisional Committee to get Yaqiu back on track, but Ding Kai grabbed it as soon as he came, and the reason was because Ding Kai was the legitimate manager of Yaqiu, and Liu Yi and the committee were always unjust.

However, Liu Yi has no foundation in officialdom, and even if he wants to climb up, it is difficult to get a piece of territory for himself, so it is better to get a base of his own in a place that the empire can't manage. In the event of turmoil in the empire in the future, there is a way out.

Although a military factory in space is not large, this is only a starting point, and if it is managed properly, it may continue to expand in the future, so Liu Yi made up his mind to start this plan.

Now Liu Yi has found a collaborator, and through several talks with Mei Yuqi, the understanding between the two sides has also improved a lot.

Liu Yi finally learned Mei Yuqi's true identity, it turned out that she was the only daughter of Mei Fanglin, the great warlord of Tuoyuan Star, no wonder she gave people the feeling of a big person.

It turns out that Tuoyuan Star has been in a civil war in recent decades, and the entire planet has been divided into hundreds of forces, large and small, and there are constant wars between them, causing the entire society to further regress.

Among the many warlords, Mei Fanglin is a rising star, an emerging force that has only risen in the last two decades. After more than ten years of development and fighting, Liu Yi found that Mei Fanglin was a very effective leader, and after more than ten years of development and fighting, he gradually grew into one of the largest warlord forces in Tuoyuan Star, and it seemed that he was very likely to become the ultimate victor.

However, Tuoyuanxing's own industrial system has been severely damaged, and its own production alone cannot meet the needs of the war, so various warlords are looking for weapons sources.

Especially for a big warlord like Mei Fanglin, the demand for weapons is even stronger, and other weapons are easy to get, but mecha is more difficult.

On the one hand, it is of course because the empire has banned the export of mechas, and on the other hand, because the demand for mecha in the empire is also very large, and the number left outside the country has naturally been greatly reduced.

Mei Yuqi, as her father's right-hand man, has been looking for a stable supply of mecha for the past two years, but the results have not been satisfactory.

There are a lot of mecha on the black market, but the quality is uneven, and the supply is not stable, which is really a drop in the bucket for Mei Yuqi, who has a long-term demand.

Now Liu Yi took the initiative to come to the door to cooperate, which is an excellent opportunity for both parties, and there will be no conflict of interest between each other in a short period of time, so they can hit it off and quickly conclude a cooperation agreement.

Mei Yuqi promised Liu Yi that when Liu Yi went to Tuoyuanxing and Bai Wenxing to find recyclable building materials, she would send someone to cooperate and help Liu Yi build the military factory as soon as possible.

The external conditions are already there, and now what Liu Yi has to do is to obtain internal support, first of all, Jieyi and Xinglian, to build a military factory, it is natural to have the support of Jieyi and Xinglian, otherwise Liu Yi alone will not succeed even if it is another thousand years.

In addition to Jieyi and Xinglian, Liu Yi must also win the support of everyone in the fortress, which is actually a loophole in the laws of the empire.

Liu Yi's idea was to build this factory in the name of Shangguanzaki, and outside the empire, so that it would not violate the laws of the empire.

However, the military factory needs to be protected and supported by the fortress, so it must be supported by the people in the fortress, otherwise it will be difficult for the factory to survive.

In order to gain the support of everyone in the fortress, Liu Yi discussed with Shangguanqi and decided to distribute shares to the members of the fortress, as long as they have participated in the construction of the factory and contributed to the factory, their labor will be used as the capital of the shares, and everyone can get a certain percentage of the shares, so that as long as the factory is profitable, everyone in the fortress can follow and get benefits.

And with this factory, the supply of weapons in the fortress has been greatly improved, and there is no need to look at the face of the higher departments in the future.

Liu Yi sorted these into materials, and first privately found a few officers with good relationships to test their tone, most of them were still very interested in this plan, but they were a little afraid of taking risks.

This is completely understandable to Liu Yi, these people in the fortress have been serving in the army and do not know much about production and operation, so some of the worries are completely reasonable.

So Liu Yi promised them that they could follow the dividends when the factory made money, and they didn't have to take any risks if the factory lost money.

When everyone heard such a promise, they dispelled their doubts and raised their hands to support Liu Yi's plan.

After a period of work, most of the officers expressed their support for Liu Yi's plan, and only a few senior officers Liu Yi had not yet talked to them, the most important of which were Ye Na and Che Kuang, as long as these two supported the plan, the others were not a problem.

Liu Yi decided to start with Che Kuang first, if Che Kuang could stand on his side, Ye Na's side would have much less resistance.

On this day, Liu Yi invited Che Kuang to talk, and then threw his plan to Che Kuang and asked Che Kuang what he thought about this matter.

Che Kuang read Liu Yi's plan carefully, and thought for a long time without speaking. Liu Yi waited quietly on the side, seeing the situation, Che Kuang seemed to be a little undecided, and Liu Yi's heart was a little worried.

Finally, Che Kuang turned off the holographic projection, turned to Liu Yi and said, "Chief Chief, I have no objection to your plan in general, but I have a question I want to ask." ”

Liu Yi saw that Che Kuang did not refuse, and he was very happy in his heart, and immediately said: "Say, what's the problem?" ”

Che Kuang said: "I want to know, if this factory is built in the future, will it only produce mechas?" Won't you produce anything else? ”

Liu Yi didn't expect Che Kuang's problem to be this, he was stunned for a moment, and replied: "The current plan is to produce mecha first, after all, it is also my business." However, if the factory is developing well in the future, you can also consider adding more production items, what do you want this factory to produce? ”

Che Kuang's eyes showed a light of excitement, and his voice involuntarily raised a little, and said: "I think if I can produce ships, such as warships and transport ships, if these projects can be developed, I will definitely give my full support!" ”

Che Kuang's words made Liu Yi both surprised and a little excited, Liu Yi said in his heart: "I didn't expect Che Kuang to be so interested in ships, but he also has a point, if the factory can develop to produce ships, my strength will inevitably increase a lot, to make money, mecha is not a level compared to ships." ”

"I'll seriously consider this, and if it really develops to that extent, I'd love to try it on the ship." Although Liu Yi was happy in his heart, he didn't dare to say it too hard.

However, Che Kuang was very satisfied with Liu Yi's answer, and said happily: "I look forward to the day when I raise my hands to support this plan of the chief!" ”

Sending Che Kuang away, Liu Yi recalled the conversation just now, and found that he still didn't know enough about the people around him, he didn't expect Che Kuang's interest to be this, it seems that he will have to have more contact with the people around him in the future.

After getting rid of the car, Ye Na's Liu Yi is not so worried, and now the officers have basically expressed their support, and Ye Na is a person who doesn't like to offend everyone, as long as most people support it, she will probably not object.

"What do you think of this plan?" Liu Yi asked.

Ye Na finished reading the plan with no surprise on her face, and Liu Yi guessed that she had probably read it from others.

"I didn't expect you to be the last one to ask me." There was obvious dissatisfaction in Ye Na's tone.

Liu Yi didn't expect her to be angry about this, and hurriedly said, "I thought about you too much, so I showed it to others first." ”

"Alas...... It seems that they still treat me as an outsider, and even the group leader below has seen it, so they keep me in the dark? Did you forget the last time you and Shangguanqi went to Juze? ”

"No, I didn't mean that, I read it to the people below first, and then I showed it to you, how much respect is this, how can you still be angry?" Liu Yi had no choice but to play an oily tone, hoping to fool the past.

Ye Na is not a cautious person, she just hopes that Liu Yi can apologize, but she didn't expect Liu Yi to plan to use this method to get past, and she suddenly became even more angry.

saw Ye Na stand up suddenly, give a military salute to Liu Yi, and turned around without saying a word, leaving Liu Yi alone in the office.

"What does this mean......" Liu Yi said to himself, scratching his head.
