Chapter 90 Balance of Interests

Aldrich's bet made Maxwell stunned for a while, and finally said faintly: "Old guy, it turns out that you are planning this?" ”

Aldridge glanced at the other party noncommittally, and since Maxwell asked this sentence, it meant that he was going to back down, after all, there was no problem at all with letting him come up with a space fleet, but a high-minded beauty Althea, he couldn't change it.

"Everyone!"

After Flora Watson, who had never had a chance to interject, drew everyone's attention to herself, she finally had a chance to throw her chips: "My personal idea is that I want to be an equal with him and am willing to help him establish his own family power in North Wharton......"

After only half of the words, the other three guys were already glaring at Flora in disbelief, especially Aldrich, who thought that the victory was in his hands, and couldn't help but cry: "Are you, you woman crazy again?" ”

Why say "again"?

Because Flora's nickname is "Crazy Woman", can a woman who can sit at the top of the North Wharton Pyramid be a normal person?

The Watson family is the weakest of the four major families, if there are no special means, and there is no old woman who often goes crazy to support them, how can they still be among the four major families?

The family culture of this family is one word - crazy!

Or you can change the word - ruthless!

This "ruthless" is not cruel to others, but cruel to yourself!

The simplest example is that the Watson family, who is in charge of logistics production, inevitably has to mine in space every day, but these people are more efficient than Li Yi, or even crazier, almost every day except for eating and sleeping, the rest of the time is like an old scalper who keeps repeating mining, day after day, year after year!

This is actually not ruthless enough, the more ruthless family members directly drive the mining barge to land on the resource planet, and then stay on it alone for several years, living an ascetic life of mining and retreat, only when the family's supply ship or transport ship comes, they can see the living people and become popular.

When these guys came back to report on their work, although they were all very good and had improved one or more skills to the extreme, their spirits were obviously a little abnormal, and one by one they either didn't say a word all day long, or they kept talking to people, obviously pushing themselves too hard and becoming crazy in the eyes of others.

Maniacs have never been able to do things with common sense, although they only do some hard work, but they can persist in doing one thing for a long time with such perseverance, ordinary people will definitely not be able to do it, once these madmen are armed and start to go crazy, it will definitely make everyone frightened, even the Lehman family does not dare to fight with them.

Especially the patriarch of the madmen, Flora Watson.

This woman has done a lot of crazy things in her life, not to mention anything else, just say that she has built the family into a crazy family that is cruel to herself, this thing is crazy enough, before Flora Watson became the patriarch, the Watson family was actually quite normal, that is, it took nearly a hundred years to gradually create this crazy culture.

And at this moment, Flora Watson is crazy again, she actually wants to help an outsider establish her own family power!

What this means, it goes without saying!

The reason why the four major families can become the four major families is not only because they have countless family elites with high knowledge quotients, in fact, it is not that there are no other human forces with higher knowledge quotient than them who have come to Wharton, but these forces have either been strangled in the cradle, or have been defeated in countless struggles and have to flee, and the current four major families are the victors after countless battles.

If Li Yi's knowledge quotient is not too high, such as below 60 points, there is no problem in supporting a subsidiary family, but if the knowledge quotient exceeds 60, or even more than 65, once the family power is formed, it will pose a threat to the dominance of the four major families, and then the power will inevitably be redistributed, and if it is not good, it will set off a civil war and shoot yourself in the foot!

So immediately after Aldrich's questioning, Kim Brown made the attitude of the Brown family very clear: "I am against it! This person is an outsider, and there is no tangible evidence to prove his background identity, supporting such a figure to establish family power is very dangerous for our four major families! ”

Flora shrugged her shoulders and said, "Didn't the conclusion of the investigation say that he is from the Yanu Republic?" ”

Kim Brown said: "It is precisely because he may be from the Yanu Republic that we have to be more cautious!" Although the Yanu Republic is far away from us, as long as you stretch out a finger casually, you can poke us to death! Not only should we not reuse him, but we should also keep him under strict control, and I always suspect that he is a spy sent by the Yanu. ”

Flora couldn't help but wonder, Kim Brown obviously can't eat grapes and says that grapes are sour, it's okay to deceive children, it's impossible to fool the big guys here.

Yanu is indeed a superpower, but the distance is too far away, so far that there is no need to send a high-ranking nobleman who has not even implanted a memory and cognitive system to risk his life to be a spy, which is illogical and cost-effective from any point of view.

Even if this person is really Yanu's spy and succeeds in the front station, it will take several years for Yanu to reach Wharton, and he will have to sweep away countless countries and planetary forces on the way - this is obviously a joke!

So Kim Brown's words were purely alarmist, and the other three bigwigs directly ignored them, but everyone's attitude was still against it.

Aldrich then said, "Flora, you didn't think about the consequences? Our four families are the cornerstone of stabilizing North Wharton, allowing a foreign marquis to establish his own family power, but I am afraid that the tail will not be lost. ”

Maxwell, who had never said anything, didn't say anything, but after Aldrich finished speaking, there was an "um" sound in his nose, obviously, this kind of thing was not necessary to discuss in Maxwell's opinion, and it was absolutely impossible to agree, so he didn't even bother to say nonsense.

"Actually, you're worried about it."

Flora smiled: "He's just one person, if you want to build a family, you can't do it in a hundred years, aren't you too worried?" ”

Kim Brown also laughed, and said in the Yanu language: "The white horse passes through the gap, and with a flick of the fingers!" ”

Yanu is one of the three major lingua franca, of course the big guys here can understand the meaning and subtext of this sentence, a hundred years seems to be a long time, but in fact it will pass quickly, if you really have to wait for a hundred years, it may be too late to regret it by then.

Because of the existence of gene cloning technology in this time and space, human beings can live for hundreds of years, as long as there is no problem with the brain, the body and even the skull can be replaced at any time, and there will be no death due to various organ pathologies in the old time and space.

And because the body function can always be healthy and vigorous, Alzheimer's disease will only have a certain chance of suffering from it after the age of 200, but even if it does, it will only reduce the efficiency of knowing the number of hands, because of the existence of memory processors, daily life is no different from normal people.

So a hundred years from now, if nothing else, everyone here should still be alive, and when the time comes, how should they deal with themselves?

But Flora seemed to have a plan, and put on a confident look and said: "Don't forget, everyone, he is an outsider, and he is a person. If he wants to establish family power, he must intermarry with the Whartons and then have a large number of children...... So, please think about it, what if all the women who married and had children with them belonged to our four major families? When the time comes, will these children of ours listen to him or to us? ”

In fact, halfway through the words, the bigwigs who are all human spirits will understand, Flora's trick is "transferring flowers and trees" according to the Yanu language, and she regards people as stallions of the four major families in disguise, although it is to support a family in the name of the other party, but it is actually a fertility base used by the four major families to update their bloodlines.

Not only that, but Flora also had a more ruthless move: "We don't need to establish a family for him on Wharton, just give him a resource planet that is not far away or near as a family base." Even if he can develop the resource planet and establish the family under the harassment of artificial intelligence, it will not pose a substantial threat to us at all. On the contrary, his resource planet must depend on us in order to develop, and if it is discovered that he is acting abnormally or malfunctioning, we can completely stop the supply of all the necessary supplies. ”

After saying this, Flora first smiled faintly at Aldrich: "This plan of mine does not affect you from marrying your granddaughter to him. I believe that as Orthea, becoming the mistress of her family will definitely bring greater benefits to your Manning family. ”

Then, Flora turned his gaze to Maxwell: "The resource planet is just his family base, and he doesn't have to live there every day, he himself can still develop in the military department and continue to contribute to the cause of the unification of my empire." In the same way, he can also participate in some research projects of scientific research institutes, as long as his energy can be taken care of. ”

At this time, even Kim Brown, who had been disagreeing, nodded thoughtfully: "This plan is feasible." Give him a resource planet to engage in logistics development, and then let him continue to join the army to fight to improve his military skills, and from time to time he is pulled to participate in some scientific research projects...... Even if he is a duke with more than 70 points, he must be greedy for more than he can, and in the long run, he will inevitably become mediocre! There will be no threat to us in the future. ”

As soon as Kim Brown finished speaking, Aldrich also nodded slowly in agreement, this is actually inevitable, Flora's proposal is completely in line with his interests, and naturally he will not object.

Only Maxwell, who seemed to be rough but was actually delicate, did not immediately express his position, but asked more: "So, what does the Watson family plan to give, and what benefits will they receive?" ”

These words immediately reminded the other two that Flora was so busy that everything had been calculated, but what good did this do to the Watson family? Could it be that this madwoman is going to throw all the young women of the family over to borrow seeds?

After Flora slowly and methodically brushed her hair, she replied, "He must serve our Watson family, at least nominally, and we can share other aspects, and we will not interfere." In exchange, the resource planet is produced by our Watson family, of course, the output on the resource planet is sold by the Watson family, and other families are not allowed to interfere. ”

After hearing this, Maxwell nodded with satisfaction, then looked around, exchanged glances with the others, and finally said, "Since you have no objections, then do it!" ”
