Chapter 208: A Complicated Situation
"Fiyali Business Group, the city lord of Chiyang Luojialuo is familiar with our host."
Rogett, the owner of the original wine boiled bullet shells that David brought with him on this trip, familiarly reported the identity that he had prepared, and at the same time quietly stuffed a gift card from Fiali into the hand of the port official.
It can be clearly seen that after hearing the familiar name of Fiali, the official was obviously relieved, and accepted the 'gift' with a pleasant face, but he could not hide the exhaustion on his face.
This is obviously not the look that a fat person who originally received money and received hand cramps should have.
Leggett is such a person, that is a person who can start such an industry as boiling bullet shells in a chaotic and complicated place as Garda, just in the routine inspection time of the spaceship and going through the motions, he has already called the officials of the customs department brothers, and knocked out a lot of useful information.
Due to its location at the nearest interstellar transportation hub to the Fortress of Tachino, Gao Lixing can be regarded as a merchant's paradise to some extent, where anything can be done as long as there is money.
However, every place has its own set of unspoken rules and operating rules.
In contrast, the 'skinned' ones are not well received on the surface, such as the Silver Federation and the Crimson Dynasty.
Although the Gao Li Zhao family was only a small baron during the First Empire, after the collapse of the empire, they were able to make their fortune here, and they even claimed to be descendants of the empire, and they regarded themselves very highly.
Therefore, in the eyes of the remnants of the empire led by him, the so-called Silver Federation and the like are just rebellious ministers and thieves who have embezzled the imperial heritage and changed their skins.
However, the perception of the Scarlet Dynasty, which is also the remnant of the empire and will never be the emperor, is a little complicated.
Because they are flying the same flag, but the identity of a baron and the identity of an iron-blooded duke are very different.
Even to a certain extent, if the Crimson Dynasty needs to exert influence on Gao Lixing, it has natural legitimacy.
And there are many small forces in a similar situation like Gao Lixing in the whole universe, and most of them have to rely on them in this situation, even if they don't choose to belong to the Crimson Dynasty, they are naturally at a disadvantage when facing the empire.
I have to say that the hand of the first iron-blooded Grand Duke 'never to be the emperor' was very beautiful.
But if that's the case, the old Zhao family won't do it, why should you pick peaches if you have worked hard to toss a family business that has only been a little bit like for thousands of years.
So at that time, they took advantage of this to play the banner of the Spark Council, saying that they were under the protection of the Spark Council to be where they are today.
And the Spark Council is also a legitimate organization recognized by the First Empire, and as a powerful golden thigh, it is still notoriously indisputable and pure-hearted, is there a better banner than this?
For this reason, almost every three or four years, Gao Li would take the initiative to offer a certain percentage of the Tachino Fortress of the Spark Council as a reward for asylum, in exchange for this name, as a way to fight against the erosion of power from the Crimson Dynasty.
And in the face of the behemoth of the Spark Council, even the Scarlet Dynasty had to give some face, so it naturally gathered its minions.
But just 13 years ago, the Spark Council overturned overnight...
This heavy blow naturally made Gao Lixing's forces led by the Zhao family as anxious as ants on a hot pot, but fortunately, the Tachino Fortress was still operating on a daily basis.
But the roof leak happened to rain overnight, and just two years later, the Tachino Fortress also had an abnormality...
The fleet that they routinely 'paid taxes' to the Tachino Fortress received martial law warnings from the fortress in the star field in front of the Tachino Fortress, and even many self-disciplined defensive weapons were activated.
The deflated Gaoli fleet had no choice but to go home, but secretly they made a trip to see each other once a year, but they all ran into a wall and returned.
This news naturally inevitably leaked out, and even once made many merchants interpret it as a precursor to the invasion of the Void Species, and for this reason, the entire business of Gao Lixing withered for a few years.
But eleven years on, and the Tachino Fortress has been like this year after year, one has to wonder if something major has happened within it.
It is said that even the nearby Confederation and Empire fleets have tried to test it, but they have been beaten in vain by the fire of the self-disciplined fortresses.
The Spark Council overturned, and the Tachino Fortress changed later, which naturally and inevitably seriously affected Gao Lixing, who was flying the flag of the Spark Council.
After so many years, in the Scarlet Dynasty, there is no shortage of people who are red in the big cake, and they have begun to be active on Gao Li Star and secretly connect with each other, wanting to 'evolve Gao Li peacefully' as much as possible.
If it can return to the rule of the Crimson Dynasty without harming its vitality, it will be even more effective today after the collapse of the Spark Council, and a nail will be hammered into this star field, so that it can take the advantage in the future to get involved in the unknown state of Fortress Tachino.
With such a great credit, I am afraid that the credit of a real power earl is less!
Obviously, the Federation will not sit idly by and watch the Empire reclaim such an important interstellar hub, and it is even said that even the always low-key state religion seems to have signs of getting involved in Gaoli.
It is precisely because of this complex political reason that there are all kinds of ghosts, snakes, and gods everywhere on Gaoli Star recently, and it is simply a miasma.
This situation undoubtedly made it difficult for the customs office of the spaceport to do so.
Due to the pressure from above, they had to ensure that they were 'dutiful' and did not let any 'skinned' ship enter the port, while at the same time having to face the fact that Gao Li had been infiltrated into a sieve.
The reason why the customs official breathed a sigh of relief was not because the Peacemaker was not an imperial force, but because he had already foreseen another normal gain before stepping down...
After listening to the report from Rogett, David couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Fortress Tachino is really in trouble, but how do you feel that every time I go to a place, there are more rights and wrongs, it's really annoying." ”
"Hmph, don't put gold on your face, aren't we all right in Panod? I think you're bored, so I'd love to be a little lively! ”
Lily, who was very familiar with David's temperament, did not hesitate to pierce his hypocritical face.
David's smile froze... After thinking about it, it seems that this is indeed the case...
Since he came to this world, he has almost been used to coming and going in the wind and rain, even in the past few months-long war career, he is like a fish in water.
Even the peaceful days of the past few months in Panod have made him feel more and more bored and empty, and he always wants to find something new and exciting when he has nothing to do, which is bitter for Tsukichi Sakura... If it weren't for the good physique of the same high-level evolutionary, I'm afraid it would have been played badly a long time ago...
So this man... It's just a cheap bone... Especially Davy's...
On this planet, he smells the smell of the coming storm.
But he also knew that at this juncture, their first task was to find out the state of the Tachino Fortress, and if possible, try not to cause more trouble on the planet.
PS: Kavinka's Death Desire... So maybe these two days may seem a little dry... I forgot which colleague in the group said it, Carvin is like menstrual cramps... It's normal to endure it for a few days... I hope you will forgive me...
PS2: Thank you for the reward of the 'Qing Su' classmates~ It seems that I missed it yesterday...
