Kane's nickname is 'Idle', and within a week of coming to Marsala, he got to know the Quartet.

Old William, the commander of the federal water-stopping base, this old guy has no ambitions anymore, and it is estimated that he will be stuck in the rank of brigadier colonel in this life and will not be able to get a real colonel.

This base boss, who has been acting for 6 years, is actually a mine guard, mainly space pirates, rebels and other things are rampant in the frontier star field, and the water-stopping base is a very important mining base of the Federation.

Since there is no hope of promotion, then make more dry goods and save some money for your retirement life and future generations.

So he and another powerful person, the owner of the Zhishui mine, Custer, and the head of the Star Harbor, Thiago, jointly found a gold owner and played the trick of stealing and smuggling.

William Sr. was in charge of covering and stopping those who tried to get their hands on the mines, Thiago turned a blind eye and allowed the smuggling ships to load their goods in the port of Xing, while Custer organized the poaching.

However, within the federation, the founding family suddenly launched a series of industry rectifications, and some officials were found to be problematic, fined and imprisoned.

The owner of the fund suddenly gave up, and the three of them faced the problem that the private mining could not be transported away, and the additional expenses needed to be settled.

Without the financiers, they can't afford to advance money at all.

Seeing that the mine received a notice and faced a protective closure, and it was inevitable to carry out a comprehensive inventory, the water-stopping base and Xinggang also had government affairs instructions, and the three of them were worried.

As a result, the savior Kane Zhao arrived, and Kane relied on the advantage of the prophet to follow the Fox family to short futures and stocks, and he scavenged a lot of money.

His super-calculated AI has also been launched, his hands and feet are clean, and the broiler is playing, and those founding families know that someone has shared the cake that belongs to them, so they can only give up temporarily, maybe the next time the other party makes a move, they can find the mastermind behind the scenes.

Of course, there can't be a next time, Kane is playing a hammer deal.

Money is meant to be spent, and it must be spent as soon as possible, as a war will inevitably be inflationary.

So recently, Kane has been spending money like water, and he has been very happy with a few good deals in terms of connections and interests, mainly buying shady goods like Old William.

In addition to ore, there are also weapons accessories, equipment parts, food, and even daily necessities. All walks of life in the federation have problems such as fraud, smuggling, theft and sales, and the prosperity of underground trade can give birth to an extralegal place like the Dead Man's Harbor.

So with the help of Graybeard, I also made a few deals, which can be regarded as a certain degree of redemption of Graybeard's notoriety, which is also a good time to rush, there are a large number of black goods to be sold urgently, otherwise with Graybeard's reputation, not many people are willing to do business with it, even if it is done, the price will rise by at least 3 percent, in the terminology of the industry: reputation risk gold.

After this series of large-scale purchases, the mother fleet of the Arkham Guild will not have to worry about running out of resources within 18 months.

The Mother Fleet is a stealth production fleet centered on 13 Valhalla-class transport-converted base ships. After Kane completed the deal with Fox, he brought in more than 100 ships from other channels, including more than 60 ships from the Federation's famous ship graveyard alone, including 12 Glorious-class space carriers used by the Federation 50 years ago.

The space carrier itself is not a big problem, mainly because of the military's new strategy and tactics, which are no longer suitable for this kind of ship, so it is mothballed in a certain military space port.

This batch of ships, in fact, someone made up their minds, and then Kane, who had the advantage of the prophet, shot faster and unstoppable, after all, he played a one-time charm on the key person and even 'the teacher is not a person', and when he encounters this kind of unreasonable means of losing the San value, it is definitely loved by everyone, and flowers bloom.

Until now, the Federation is still in a state of rage, and 12 ships of 720,000 tons (which do not enter the atmosphere, so although the model is early, but they are built extraordinarily large) have disappeared out of thin air, and there is not one left, which is too frustrating.

Compared to that, the old combat space ships that were actually guarded by the administrators and sold to terrorists and space pirates, including the sons of Keha, were nothing in comparison.

In short, the manager really deserves it, and he can even implicate the direct descendants of a founding family, and the scene was once ugly. If it weren't for the fact that Fox and other families were busy with other important things now, it would have been another big tear that consumed wealth.

In terms of tonnage alone, Kane now has one of the largest fleets of humanity in the entire Koplo Star Zone. After becoming No.1, his thirsty desires were finally satisfied.

In terms of big projects, he has done everything he can, and now he is preparing to fight the fire while integrating and upgrading himself, while waiting for the outbreak of war.

The batch of mines obtained from the old William trio can be regarded as further thickening the foundation.

In addition to the trio, Kane also befriended the new commander of the Marsala garrison, Colonel Lim Yiu-fai, during the week.

In the aftermath of the extermination of Josala, the Federation gave the Marsala garrison an order to retreat. This is not simply forced to give up the periphery and shrink the combat power, but to make way for Edmonddo Duke of the Alpha Squadron to perform on the stage.

As a result, Renault was very ignorant, and even took those militiamen there to take the initiative to save Zhishui Town, stealing the limelight of the first confrontation between humans and insects, which will inevitably go down in the history books. Duke's annoyance can be imagined.

So later, in the name of destroying the water-stopping military base that had actually been fully infected, Renault and others were imprisoned in the space prison ship, so there was the rescue of Keha's son, and Renault joined the gang.

But now, with the entry of Kane, the-stirring stick, both Josara and Marsala have become good places to make achievements.

The founding family of the Duke family is not bad, but it is better, why let Duke be so beautiful? So Lin Yaohui, a colonel whose name sounds very Hong Kong or Taiwanese (Lin is a Taiwanese surname) in Kane, appeared.

It is estimated that it is a line of fire, and one or two stars have just been added to the epaulettes, and the lips should be made with hair growth agents to make him look older, in fact, Kane looks at his bone age, and he is less than 22 years old, which is really frustrating, especially in the Federation where army titles are extremely difficult to obtain.

Of course, the colonel is at the end, and Duke (in his 50s), who can properly be Lin Yaohui's father, is just a colonel, so he needs to take the meritorious service and officially enter the ranks of generals.

Lin Yaohui's attitude towards Kane is condescending, arrogance is true, respect is false, Kane is estimated that Lin Fu, who is named an adjutant and is actually a senior military adviser at home, mentioned Lin Yaohui, so as to make him realize that at this time, having a war hyena like Graybeard is actually a good thing.

This is indeed the case, in the words of Lin Fu when he persuaded Lin Yaohui: "Graybeard's reputation has long fallen into the abyss, and saving all mankind cannot wash away the black foundation." They themselves know this, so they only love money. That's good, isn't it? Our troops are old and new, and even veterans have only participated in guild wars, so they may not be able to fight the insects. Graybeard has been through many brutal wars, so he might be able to use it. The key is to fight beautifully, and when the time comes, cut out a picture and replace it with our people, so that the master can exert his strength......"

So Lin Yaohui came to his senses, became polite to Kane, and even called him a brother, this is actually a bit too much, and he also fell into the trap, and he will be used by someone with a heart, of course Kane is a person with a heart, he secretly filmed, and he also became an actor.

Actors are the basic skills of all Zhao families, of course, the Zhao family does not watch "Actor's Self-cultivation". Kane is also qualified in this regard, and in this way, Graybeard's new leader has become Lin Yaohui's best friend, and he is really a villain's friend.

Kane also befriended Dominic, the mayor of New Melbourne, who is nearly two meters tall and weighs more than 400 pounds, and the appearance and temperament of the evil ghost in the color make Kane think of the Marvel Universe's New York and even the underground emperor of the United States.

Dominic has such energy, it is said that this was not the case originally, because he loved breeding too much, and he broke his kidney, and as a result, he was persecuted by his opponent when he changed his kidney, and he was replaced by some kind of beast.

And Dominic, relying on his tenacious will and advanced medical technology, did not die due to rejection, but also mutated, and his metabolism was different from that of ordinary people, so he grew up again and became what he is now.

His nickname is the knife-toothed boar, and he is the mayor, giving people a contrasting effect of the king of the mountain being the prefect, which is impressive.

In fact, this guy is not stupid at all, under his management, New Melbourne has surpassed New Sydney and become the largest city in Marsala, regardless of size, population, GDP, and output value.

Dominic has his own network of contacts, and his vigilance is quite high, and a series of new actions made by the federal military in the Sara system, as well as the adjustment of personnel and management of the industry to which the founding family belongs, make him feel abnormal.

Therefore, for the infamous Graybeard, he does not pretend on the surface, but secretly takes the initiative to interact, and he even has a business with Graybeard, that is, to help train the militia in New Melbourne.

The training business is also a mercenary's executive income item, but Graybeard rarely receives this kind of order, perhaps because the employer is worried about cultivating a group of soldiers or white-eyed wolves.

In fact, if you really understand that 'the only belief of mercenaries is money', you will find that Graybeard is actually quite disciplined, taking money to do things, and allowing on-site price increases, Graybeard dares to play like this.

The kind of person who gets a gun pointed to his head and yells, "I'll give you double, not three!" is often happy when he encounters Graybeard, provided that he has enough cash and can quickly get to Graybeard's designated account.

Greybeard also allowed the initial employer to make a counteroffer, although this was an opportunity to increase the price, but it was fair, wasn't it?

Kane now wants to carry forward the spirit of Greybeard's contract, saying that he will accept not to take advantage of the price increase, provided that an additional 50% of the festival fee is added.

Of course, there is no such strange extra cost for training the militia this time, after all, the alien worm never takes money to buy his life.

Since you want to train the militia, you will inevitably deal with Jim Renaud, because he is the militia captain.

Jim Reynolds still has a lot of prestige in Marsala, and the militia he leads, at least in terms of will to fight, is much better than the mine garrison at the Stop Water Base and the original Union garrison.

In terms of the use of weapons, the fact that these militias can use a pile of rags and output more firepower than the same number of regular troops is enough to show their operational capabilities. It's definitely hard work.

Naturally, he defended his family and himself. The folk here are much stronger than those of Josara.

However, this time, Kane found that the militiamen's equipment was still very good, and after inquiry, he learned that Mayor Dominic was bleeding heavily, and allocated a sum of money from the municipal fees to buy a batch of weapons from the evacuated original garrison.

The original garrison had the embarrassment that it was better to save money by consigning second-hand weapons than by going to a new place for new equipment. (The main thing is to sell the old and buy the new one mile and one outside can make two sums, and it also provides a reason for the superiors to make money from it, so the new construction is more cost-effective than the consignment has always been a default means of profit within the federal army, which is regarded as the change of direction of the defense fee, the opening fee)

In Dominica, the militia has outdated and poor equipment and needs to be dealt with, and the two sides hit it off.

Kane is happy to see it happen, too. Corruption is very hateful, but what is even more odious is a pool of stagnant water, as long as it can be operated, it can produce certain beneficial effects, and in the end it will be turned into all kinds of taxes and apportionments to be borne by the people......

Kane feels that this kind of play is indeed very unfriendly to the people, what should the people do?

Either you also drill the camp, or you will bear it, or you will resist.

Human regime has always been a process of turning from a good fruit to a rotten fruit, at least Kane did not see an opportunity to break out of this pattern.

Dig deeper, and the problem is more complicated.

For example, a point that is enough to make people think deeply, himself, with his current ability, there is no need to mix with humans, alien insects, and star spirits in the Kopolu Star Zone, and there is no need to go to the earth to cooperate with the humans of UED, find a star sector that he thinks is pleasing to the eye, develop farming, and build a big iron-blooded insect empire, isn't it good?

But he still chose to jump up and down in the hot spots.

The sociality of people?

Need to be recognized by others?

Or is it a psychology of taking advantage of the situation?

This is about the embodiment of the template of human thinking, which seems to be a bit vulgar and superficial, but it feels good......
