Chapter 118: Ransom

Qin Feng heard that Narik wanted to redeem himself at a price, and felt that this proposal was somewhat interesting, thinking that the nobles of the empire did not like to kill each other for no reason, and the deaths were often just ordinary civilians.

Even if the noble lord is defeated, he can redeem himself and his vassals as long as they pay the corresponding price. Unless there is a big grudge, the other party is not allowed to redeem it.

So, Qin Feng motioned for Narik to continue.

"My lord, according to the war practice between the empire and this world, the lord of the defeated side can take half of the property as a ransom to redeem himself." Lord Narik said.

"Oh? What else is that? So how much are you worth? Qin Feng asked.

Narik gritted his teeth and said, "Although my territory includes four habitable planets, two agricultural stars, and one mining star, and occupies three star systems, most of the wealth is in the hands of a few large families and many large and small nobles, and I only have less than two trillion crystals in my own hands. ”

"Wow, two trillion crystal coins, so valuable." Qin Feng's eyes were about to burst into Venus, "To be honest, it's useless for me to ask for your territory, and I don't want to be a lord, I just need you to control half of the wealth." ”

This sentence made Narik suddenly a little speechless, but no, now is not the era of empires, all changes in territory must be reported to the Star Sector Headquarters of the Protoss, and this kind of private transfer of lord titles is also invalid.

"However, my wealth is not all crystal coins, and if adults need crystal coins, I don't have that much."

"Well, I have to think about it, if I really want to say what I need, it's too much, warships, food, population, soldiers, etc., it's not too much to say that I need territory."

"Then ......, what do you need?"

"You have sent a lot of battleships this time, and there is basically no shortage of food, and the same is true for food. As for the population, even if you give it to me now, I won't have a place to put it. There are still **0,000 prisoners captured by the soldiers, and I don't know how to deal with it, and I don't dare to use it if I give it. ”

At this time, Feng Du spoke, "I don't know Lord Narik, can you exchange the ransom for interstellar hard currency?" ”

"Your Excellency, you mean Blue Gold, right?" "Yes, I don't have that much, just over 40 tons." ”

Qin Feng didn't know what the blue gold was, and looked at Feng Du with some confusion, and Feng Du explained, "One ton of blue gold is about equal to 10 billion crystal coins. And it is very rare, and it is generally used as interstellar hard currency. ”

"Oh, I want the 40 tons of blue gold, and you can use the rest of the materials, technology, and warships as ransom." Qin Feng said.

"Then please confirm the supplies you need." Narik saw that Qin Feng accepted his proposal, his life was worry-free, and he could earn it slowly when he had no money or anything, so he agreed more happily.

"What is the price of a cruiser, a destroyer?"

Nariq thought for a moment, "My lord, this depends on the location of construction and the specifications of the battleship, it costs about 50 billion crystals to build a standard cruiser in my territory, and about 10 billion crystals to build a destroyer. Not counting the shipboard weapons and equipment and power energy materials inside. ”

"How much is the kind of supply ship you brought with the fleet this time when it's fully loaded?"

"When the supply ships are fully loaded, each ship is about 12 billion crystals. The supply ship itself is 2 billion crystals, and the supplies are nearly 10 billion. ”

"Then I want two cruisers, ten destroyers, plus ten supply ships full of supplies." Qin Feng's lion opened his mouth.

"My lord, this time I brought out all the warships that can be called in the territory, and the rest are guarding the territory, and I may not be able to gather the battleships that my lord needs in a short time." Narik said with some embarrassment.

"Then I need a large warship production line, you can do this, right?" Qin Feng asked tentatively. It's good to have a finished battleship, but you can't make it yourself, and the battleship you need is not the kind of standard battleship that is common to the affiliated races.

Qin Feng now prefers large warships such as Fengrui-class heavy cruisers, and he feels that in interstellar combat, the carrying capacity, firepower intensity, and defense capabilities are combined, if the fleet is not large, then this kind of heavy cruiser is the main force on the battlefield.

"Large warship production lines? There are only two in my territory, each worth more than a trillion crystals. Narik was a little reluctant.

"What about your captured soldiers and generals?" Qin Feng threw this difficult problem that had been bothering him for a long time to Narik.

To this Nariq replied directly, "Soldiers, the adults can stay if they need to, but they have to be voluntary, after all, many people have grown up in the territory and will only obey the lord." ”

"Well, if they want to stay, stay in Star City, and if they don't want to stay, you can take them back. As for the generals, I dare not guarantee their loyalty, and it is useless to me, and I need them to pay a ransom. Qin Feng said.

"It's natural, my lord." Narik looked back at the others and continued, "My niece, I'll help her pay." Apparently Narik was referring to Emma.

General Buller and General Bailit next to him were dumbfounded, they were just minor nobles in the side lineage, and they didn't have much property themselves, and they didn't count the family's property themselves, and they estimated that they couldn't meet the ransom requirements after weighing it in their hearts, and the cold sweat on their faces couldn't stop breaking out.

Seeing this, Narik sighed, "I will also pay for the two generals." ”

"Then let's take 40 tons of blue gold, a warship production line that can build cruisers, materials that can make two cruisers, ten destroyers, two supply ships full of supplies, ten thousand children aged 10-15, and the rest in the form of crystals as a ransom."

Narik calculated in his heart, although Qin Feng's ransom demand was a bit high, it was not outrageous, so he nodded and agreed, "My lord, you can." ”

"I wonder how you want to get the ransom? Will you return to the territory with me, or will I send someone to send me? ”

"I'll take it for you."

"I have an extra request, though." Qin Feng said again.

"My lord, please tell me, I need the right to trade freely with your territory of Bosidia, that is, I need the right to trade with your territory in the future."

"Well, my lord, it's a bit difficult," Nariq said, "The Protoss are very restrictive to resistance forces such as the Resistance, and my territory can't guarantee this, but it's okay within my ability. ”

"If you have your own territory, there will be no problem at all." Narik in turn took Qin Feng's army.

"Finally, I have some questions that Lord Narik and Miss Emma need to answer for me."

"My lord, I must tell you everything we know." The two hastened to reassure.

"Who betrayed this Star City to you in the first place? Who was contacted? Qin Feng asked this most critical question.

Lord Narik took a deep breath and said slowly, "If you want to talk about this matter, you need to start from the beginning, when I had an interaction with the Lord of Cold Moon City, I learned that he was secretly building a Star City ship for the Empire. ”

"Because I have a close relationship with him, I want to obtain the manufacturing drawings and corresponding technology of Star City through him, so I made a private deal with the Lord of the Cold Moon, he promised to give me the relevant drawings and technology, and I immediately paid a large amount, but he secretly reported to the empire afterwards, and I was reprimanded and punished by His Majesty the Emperor for this."

"So, I secretly sent my niece Emma, who was unknown to the outside world, to the territory of the cold moon, causing an accident and letting her get close to Elise and become her personal attendant."

"Just as I was planning and planning, the army of the Protoss came over, and the empire collapsed in an instant, in order to survive, I took refuge in the Protoss, and with the help of the Protoss forces, I took advantage of the situation to destroy the Chek Territory that was friendly with the Cold Moon Territory, and forced the Cold Moon Lord to abandon the territory and escape on the Star City Ship."

"I knew that Elise and the Chimik family were in love, so I captured Kony and other core members of the Cich family, and threatened Kony's life to donate the Star City ship and space-related technology."

"I didn't expect that for some reason, she actually agreed, and first sent me the information on the jump channel control technology, and also told me the location of the Star City Ship."

"I was afraid that something would happen, so I gathered a fleet and used Kony's ship to pursue here."

"Now I see that this Star City ship is a thing. Coupled with this fiasco, I have lost interest in it. ”

Qin Feng nodded, it seemed that this matter was really complicated, and he didn't want to judge anything. He turned to Emma, "Miss Emma, I'll ask you a question too. ”

Emma hurriedly saluted, "Lord Qin Feng, may I ask, what I know must be told the truth." ”

"Do you know who sent the Assassin Ten Steps to assassinate me in the first place?"

Emma looked at Qin Feng and said, "My lord, since you came to Star City, the city lord of Elise somehow recognized the weapons on your body, and in order to ensure the safety of herself and Kony, she wanted to get the weapons from you, so she used the personnel of the Spike Organization branch she knew in her early years to issue an assassination order. ”

Qin Feng sighed secretly in his heart and didn't speak for a long time.

"That's all for today."

"Rogge, you send someone to send the lord back to the station, improve the treatment of all personnel, and don't abuse them." Qin Feng ordered.

Rocky and Rogge escorted Narik and the others back to the station.

Only then did Qin Feng say to Feng Duel, "You go to the captured soldiers to see if you can recruit suitable personnel, mainly low-level sergeants, and choose the kind that has no relatives to care about in Narik's territory." Senior officers are not necessarily for my use, and it is difficult to recruit them, but if there are any, recruit them to your staff. ”

"If you don't have the right one, don't force it." Qin Feng admonished.

"Okay, Legion Commander, I'll do it."

"At the same time, inform Qin Hu that when the existing Star City is almost repaired, another 10,000 people can be recruited in Star City, this time there is no limit to male and female, but Qin Baiyu must be allowed to participate in the review, and those who have other dissident intentions in vain trying to infiltrate the legion will be dealt with secretly, and don't alarm others."

Obviously, Rocky's performance during this period of time made Qin Feng feel a little faintly worried, but Qin Feng didn't say anything, but only made some adjustments in the handling of things.

Qin Feng didn't dare to bet the lives of all the brothers in the legion, in the face of interests and temptations, these forces would definitely do anything.
