In a magnificent hall, light shines into the hall from the tall floor-to-ceiling windows around it, shining on the huge ancient coin sculpture in the middle of the hall, which is a golden ancient Chinese coin, round on the outside and square on the inside, and I don't know what alloy material it is made of. It stood there, making everyone who entered the hall feel the so-called power of money.

This is the family headquarters established by the Qian family in Shanghai after the nuclear crisis. Underground in the hall where the statue was erected is the main base of the Qian family, and it is also the vault of the Qian Bank they opened.

At this time, there is a large office on one of the basement floors

A loud and heroic voice said: "Ning Yu, this is what your father has deposited in my Qian family's bank, with a total of 96 billion earth coins in principal and interest, and this is the account number and matrix password for withdrawal." Ale, I'm really sorry, it took so long to get it into your hands, no way, now my Qian family and Jia family are like fire and water, they are buying and reserving a large number of warships, the funds are too tight, these money is still Miao Ya that girl negotiated a business with other families a few days ago, and collected an advance payment. ”

"Hehe, Uncle Qian, thank you so much, originally this money was due in a year, but the current situation is really chaotic, my Ning family was attacked by a force of unknown origin a while ago, and the family now has to need funds to develop force."

"I also heard your father say that your Ning family seems to be being targeted. It's a shame that your parents are the ones who don't ask anything as soon as they enter the research room, and the money your family earns from the medicine every year is also used by them as research funds, and the family's military technology has not improved at all. Now those guys hiding in the shadows are probably just seeing the weaknesses of your family, and they are all ready to move. ”

"Well, although my Ning family's income is very high now, the investment in various research is also very amazing, and the surplus left every year is only 100 billion, which is really not enough to develop the military. I'm also struggling right now. ”

Among the two people who spoke, one was handsome and straight, wearing a slightly casual formal dress on his body, but he showed a chic temperament, without the slightest sense of worldliness in the shopping mall, this person was Ning Yu.

The other man, with a burly figure and a resolute face, would probably have been considered by most people if he hadn't been dressed in a businessman's suit. Moreover, his voice is also very loud and resolute, which makes people can't believe that he will be the patriarch of the Asian Qian family with finance as its main business, Qian Dayuan.

However, Ning Yu knew that this Uncle Qian had passed, when Ning Yu was very young, the Ning family was not so well-known at that time, but the Qian family at that time was already a big family.

At that time, the young master of the Qian family was the Uncle Qian in front of him, and the elders of the Qian family had high hopes for him, hoping that he could carry forward the financial career of the Qian family in the future, and also gave him a name "Qian Dayuan" that was said to accumulate wealth.

It's just that he is very wild. He never liked to ask about the family's business, he only liked to explore everywhere, and he once organized his own mercenary team, explored many dangerous places, and participated in countless battles.

Thinking of the character of Uncle Qian in front of him, Ning Yu couldn't help but smile in his heart, thinking that Qian Miaoya's pungent nature was also the inheritance of her troublesome father.

Ning Yu unconsciously thought of Qian Miaoya, but Uncle Qian didn't seem to see Ning Yu's distraction, and was still talking to him: "Now that many families have shifted their family focus to the universe, and even some families have migrated, I really don't know if on the earth in the future, human beings will become rare creatures because of their own struggles and the destruction of the environment." ”

"Oh, probably not, my family is a researcher of genes, and the ability of human beings to adapt to the harsh environment is actually very strong, in fact, those families who have survived in the universe may not have the same environment as the earth. The reason why so many families choose to leave the earth is probably because of the nature of human beings who love to explore and find wealth. Our Ning family also saw a lot of research opportunities in the universe, so we decided to start the starship project. ”

"It's a pity that I have to take care of such a big Qian family now, otherwise I would also want to explore the universe."

"Uncle Qian, haven't you thought about moving the Qian family's headquarters to the universe, doesn't the Qian family have some cosmic mining business now, and there is no shortage of starships and technology."

"Well, some old people of the family have also discussed this issue, but the main business and business scope of my Qian family are still on the earth, and most of the families in the alliance with us also lack the ability to immigrate, if we abandon them, the alliance relationship established by the Qian family for a hundred years will collapse, and the Jia family, which has been waiting for an opportunity for a long time, will inevitably fall into the well for the Qian family. Hey, now my Qian family is also a little helpless. ”

The lessons of the Qian family made Ning Yu can't help but think of the fact that a large number of small families asked to vassal the Ning family not long ago, Ning Yu is now very cautious, although those families will have a positive impact on the power of the Ning family, but the Ning family is going to immigrate to the universe, at that time, if they are not able to take care of and migrate them, I am afraid that it will deal a blow to the prestige and strength of the Ning family, and it is more likely to give those ambitious families who have been looking around for a long time an opportunity to take advantage of.

Thinking of this, Ning Yu felt that he should ask Uncle Qian to see if he had any good suggestions: "Uncle Qian, not long ago, I made an assertion and made the Hua family a vassal family of my family, you should know about it." ”

"Well, I heard about this, I didn't expect the Hua family to have that kind of rare alloy technology, your decision is correct, but those families who want to be vassals are a little chicken. I also investigated for you, there are so many families, and only one of them still has some strength, and it is worthy of being accepted as a vassal by your Ning family. ”

"Uh, which family."

"The Haosen family, which was a multinational enterprise with a history of 100 years, was not eliminated by the newly rising family forces after the widespread application of gene technology, but chose a family model, and at the same time, strengthened the cohesion of the board of directors with genetic medicine. Now, although their power has been reduced to the last family, their half-century of technology accumulation and business philosophy are still very valuable. ”

When Ning Yu heard the name of the Haosen family, he felt a little familiar, it turned out that this family was the Haosen family mentioned by his father. At the beginning, those mecha that attacked the Ning family, the internal power fusion core used their family's unique superconducting nanomaterials, and their family had only established a trade alliance with the Ning family not long ago, and Ning Yu planned to come to the door to inquire in a few days. Thinking of this, Ning Yu paid attention to this family and asked, "Oh, does that Haosen family have any special strengths, listening to this name, it doesn't look like an Asian family." ”

"They were originally a German family, and they had a very good technology in terms of mechanics and power technology. A few years ago, they invented a superconducting nanomaterial, which shocked the world with very low price and excellent performance, but this material was discontinued after only one year of production, and their family has been in decline since then, and gradually become the last family. This matter has always been one of the secrets of many family curiosity and investigation. There are even some families who have the idea of that kind of material, and they want to get that kind of material in every possible way. Out of desperation, the Hausen family wandered around the world to avoid the calculations of those insidious families, and gradually became an exiled family. ”

In Uncle Qian's words just now, he mentioned superconducting nanomaterials, although Ning Yu often charged on the battlefield for the family, his parents often forced him to develop and design some things. He knows the importance of superconducting nanomaterials, which are widely used, but the main application is that they can further reduce the size of integrated circuits and create efficient power transmission and storage systems with small size.

To put it simply, it can greatly reduce the volume and energy consumption of the circuit system of mecha and warship, and greatly improve the energy utilization rate, which is very valuable in fierce battles. The advantages and disadvantages of the energy weapons of each family are different, with the same energy, some can shoot dozens of energy bullets, while others only have a few. Mechs of the same tonnage, replacing nuclear batteries at a time, some can continue to fight for hundreds of days, while others can only last for dozens of days. This shows the importance of this material of the Hausen family.

Ning Yu pondered for a moment and asked again: "This family and my Ning family are now in a trade alliance, but you can try to observe it." It's just that there is another thing, I'm very worried, my Ning family is going to immigrate to the universe, but the current cosmic environment is no longer peaceful. The clan does not have any experience in cosmic combat, and we must accumulate enough space survival experience or recruit a large number of experienced personnel before the official migration. Uncle Qian, do you have any good suggestions? ”

Uncle Qian listened to Ning Yu's words, and didn't feel embarrassed, so he laughed out loud: "This problem is actually very easy to solve, hire your people." ”

Ning Yu was very surprised when he heard the word "employment", he really didn't think about it. Many families without resources and technology will form mercenaries in order to survive and charge for those big families. The Ning family is a big family, and Ning Yu didn't think about forming any mercenaries. Now that I think about it, if you want to hone the space combat power of the family's armament, this is a good way, but the battleship is still a problem.

Thinking of the battleship, Ning Yu looked at Qian Dayuan and found that the other party's expression was a little bad banter, and in an instant Ning Yu understood something, so he squinted his eyes and smiled: "Uncle Qian can propose such a solution to me, the problem of the battleship must have been thought of for me." ”

"Hehe, you kid is smart, many of the current routes have been attacked by star bandits, some small caravans and small mercenary organizations, worried about facing those robbers again, have retreated in the earth's spaceport, they don't have the courage to enter the route, but they still have to make a living, and the rental of warships has become their only livelihood. Your Ning family's prestige and financial resources are enough to be used as collateral for credibility, and you can rent ships that are sufficient for a fleet. Moreover, the bounties for those star thieves are now quite staggering. Of course, you can also choose to escort merchant ships, but that kind of reward is not very much, and it will not be useful to hone your combat experience. ”

In the dozens of minutes in Uncle Qian's office, Ning Yu heard a lot of Uncle Qian's experience and suggestions, and Ning Yu felt that there were too many things to do now.

When saying goodbye, Uncle Qian also invited Ning Yu to accompany Qian Miaoya to a large-scale aristocratic ball tonight, which was held by the three major families together, and it was also one of the few cooperation between the three families. The purpose is to discuss the issue of star thieves, which are now rampant.

Ning Yu had already received the invitation to this dance party a few days ago, and he didn't plan to attend it at that time, but now it seems necessary to take a look.
