In the conference room, there were roughly dozens of people, and they were the ones who decided the fate of Moria, four billion people.

Estar was in the conference room, and had a discussion with these bigwigs from various families, and most of the contents were inconvenient to disclose because they involved many secrets. However, most of the content of the meeting was naturally related to the Federation. The other is to talk about the issue of cooperation between the two sides, such as material resources.

"What we lack is weapons, ammunition, and resources, and if we can solve these problems, many people will be willing to stand up against the Federation!" That's what Ishtar said to these people.

There were dozens of people here, but only four people really decided, and one of them was Nikolai.

The other three are:

Catherine. Fan. Bruce. Padka, another giant of the Kemorian consortium, is one of the majority shareholders of the Kemlanese Transport Union. Known as the "Queen of Space", because of her family, famous for building spaceships.

Perkins. Gary. Casparo. It is a giant of the mining federation with Nikolai, but it is not dominated by the extraction of resources, and its subsidiaries are famous for the manufacture of refined ores and steel alloys. He controls 98 percent of Kemorian's ore refining and processing, and is known for its excellent quality in the Federation.

Manuel. Fan. Westens. The majority shareholder of the Kellanis Transport Union, the family's main business is financial investment, and by the way, it also operates in the retail industry, with the help of the strong strength of the transport union, several nearby civilizations have this family industry. It can be said that the status of these major shareholders who can sit here is not low.

"We all understand, but if it's just general resources, such as food, medicine, etc., maybe we can help you, even for free. But the issue of weapons and equipment, IMHO, there is a great risk in this, and if it is discovered, it will completely become a reason for the Federation to declare war on us. ”

The Confederacy's wolf ambitions are evident and peek into Moria's abundant resources. Their relationship with the Federation was already strained, and it was only because of Kemorian's alliance with Yumayan that no force was used against them for the time being.

But this is definitely not a long-term solution, and they must unite as many forces against the Federation as possible. That's why they're talking to Ishtar here now. But they are still afraid of the Federation, and they will be afraid that the Federation will wage war against them.

"I understand your concerns, so I'm not asking you for anything, I just want to be as helpful as I can. Weapons and bullets are the basis of this uprising! We know that you have secret access to the Federation's deals, and you can rest assured that we will not ask for your weapons for nothing, and will provide you with the cost of purchasing weapons and equipment. But the demand cannot be obsolete or obsolete arms, or even second-hand ones, which we do not want. ”

Of course, it is not really because of their arms and equipment, but with the help of this method, to cover up the base's ability to produce weapons.

Everyone here seemed to be a little hesitant, and finally it was Catherine, the "Queen of Space", who said: "If it is just ordinary light weapons, such as firearms, we may be able to give you a new one." But if you want tanks or mechs, warplanes and so on, we can't guarantee that. ”

This makes sense, after all, ordinary firearms can often be found on the black market, so it is not particularly difficult. But equipment such as tanks and mechs cannot be allowed to circulate by the federal government.

"I can understand, so I'm not saying tanks and mechs. Because these two pieces of equipment are indeed very eye-catching. But if you switch to a spaceship, it should be much easier. ”

Only then did Ishtar say his purpose: "Miss Catherine, I want to buy a new type of spaceship in your hand, of course, not for warships, but for ordinary commercial or civilian use!" ”

Read between the lines!

Catherine was stunned for a moment, and then her beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of essence: "I see, it seems that your plan is not small!" ”

There is no shortage of wise people here, and some of them have already realized the same mystery after just a moment of contemplation.

You must know that with the development and progress of science and technology, spaceships no longer need to be built with the help of the whole country. Spaceships have begun to spread to the people at the bottom, and commercial and even private and civilian have appeared. Although the price is still an astronomical amount for most people, it is no longer out of reach.

However, the above is not the point, the focus is on the standardization and modularization of spaceships. This is a scientific and technological civilization, in order to be able to deal with the invasion of foreign enemies at any time, the structure of the spaceship has been planned in a unified way, and in the event of a war, commercial and civilian ships can be quickly requisitioned, and they can be quickly converted into interstellar warships.

Kemorian and the Federation belong to the same race and the same civilization. Therefore, there are many similarities in the design structure and various details of the spacecraft. Naturally, it can also be transformed into an interstellar battleship to be used, and apparently Ishtar has such an idea!

Ista said to those present: "Everyone, I believe you all understand that the Federation has been plotting against Moriah for a long time, and I believe you will not be unaware of this lesson from Tasannis. That's why I'm here, and you're willing to sit here. Maybe you've been secretly investigating my identity, and someone may have already found out. I have the same attitude towards the Federation as you do! ”

Yes, both sides have a common enemy - the federal government.

Ishtar has nothing left, all he has is full of anger, his hatred of the corrupt Federation, and his desire for revenge will inevitably lead to a revolution.

Likewise, everyone here also hopes that the Federation will be in chaos so that the Federation will not have time to focus on them.

It can be said that the two sides have a tacit understanding, because they have the same original intention.

The people in the seats, whispering to each other and the people around them, are doing the final discussion.

Nikolai also discussed with Perkins beside him, then stood up and made a gesture to signal everyone to be quiet, and said, "Friend Ishtar, we all understand your thoughts. Yes, we all have the same purpose, so we will support you as much as possible. I have just discussed with Perkins that I am going to change the raw ore in the contract we have signed with you to refined ore, and the purchase price will remain the same as the contract, and we can add five percent to the amount for you. ”

A bit of a surprise, originally Ishtar and the Mining Federation, the purchase was raw ore, because the raw ore has not been refined, the price is relatively cheap. Now it's refined ore, which is equivalent to at least doubling the amount of minerals needed! And the other side added another five percent of the units. After all, he has earned at least tens of millions of federal coins, right?

Catherine also said: "We can promise you this if you buy our transport union's spaceship, but this requires you to place an order, and only after we have a paper agreement can we send ships into the territory of the Federation." I think Your Excellency should understand what I mean? ”

"Naturally!" Isha nodded and said, "I've got the contract ready." ”

"Okay, but I need to discuss with the shareholders in the union for the time being, and if we don't find any problems, we'll sign it and send it to you."

Manuel also replied immediately: "You are right, we will also provide you with weapons and equipment as much as possible, but you need to understand one thing. We offer you so many benefits and conveniences here, but we don't give them to you for free, if you can't meet our expectations, we will stop helping you at any time, I hope you better remember! ”

In other words, if they find that Estah's actions against the Federation are not as effective as they imagined, or that they cannot compete with the Federation, then they will unilaterally stop the supply of supplies at any time in order to protect themselves.

This is a very realistic thing, and once it is useless, they will ruthlessly ask you to discard it!

Ishtar didn't give an answer to this, just smiled faintly: "So, our conversation was very successful?" ”
