It seems that it is indeed not cost-effective to spend more money to buy a cosmic origin singularity, but it is based on the fact that he has no follow-up output, and Bai Ye is very confident that as long as he gets the sample, those people in the Sumeru Akademiya will soon be able to make a corresponding product.

Polaris Heavy Industries has pricing power in this industry not because of how complex the technology is, but purely because of the company's own influence in the field, strength and imperial patent protection, but Sumeru doesn't seem to care about patent issues at all since now, let alone any production licensing.

Whether it is the warships under his command or all kinds of combat armaments, almost all of them are based on the magic reform or taking doctrine of the core technology of the existing enterprises, on the one hand, the Sumeru civilization is completely hidden in the shadows and no one knows, and on the other hand, no one can think that Sumeru has a white leaf, which is a special existence that does not play cards according to common sense at all.

The support of mysterious energy allows her to do a lot of things that other intelligent civilizations want to do but can't do, just to be able to get a complete enterprise-level scientific research base under the nose of a super enterprise is already impossible to do, and people's various testing equipment is not in vain.

But Bai Ye is completely different, she only needs to spend mysterious energy to make a special one-time skill, even under the nose of the entire empire, she can also play a trick, just now Polaris and Cloll are still tearing up the incident, don't want to, both sides still think that the other party wants to turn their faces and deny people, and as a result, they directly poke out the tax evasion, and the Imperial Finance Department has sent an investigation team to intervene.

After a smooth operation, this scientific research base and a lot of technical data were suddenly lost, but not so many people noticed.

"Twelve million credits, a week, that's seven standard days - how are you going to make war money, dancer?"

Yao waited silently for Hakuba and Sylvie to end the communication before asking.

"What war money."

Bai Ye put on an attitude that he didn't like this title very much, and retorted: "Don't say it so bluntly, I'm going to contribute to world peace with the Grass God Mercenary Group, of course, there is a cost to maintain the peace of the universe, and with the cost, I naturally have to consider the issue of fees - I can't let my soldiers risk their lives in vain to fight a war that has nothing to do with the Sumeru people, right?" ”

Now that the reputation of the Grass God Mercenary Group has been completely beaten, the owner of which is not weaker than the combat effectiveness of the old large mercenary group, has now reached the threshold of being able to take on some special tasks from the military, which is the so-called large-scale proxy war.

The last time I fought with the Twilight Sword mercenary group was a relatively basic proxy war, the scale of the battle between the two sides was not too large, and the political forces involved were not complicated.

Large proxy wars are much more special than traditional mercenary wars, as they do not involve the internal politics of the Human Empire, but rather involve many client states attached to the Empire.

The Empire's external notice is not a high-pressure notice in the traditional sense, and the governance of the client state is more like free-range in Bai Ye's view, and the official of the empire is only paying a promise and identity in it, and the actual governance power of these client states is actually in their own hands, but they are only subordinate client states that nominally belong to the human empire, and they are not allowed to violate the empire in the general direction.

This is not difficult to understand in combination with the current situation, even if Yao Yao seems to be dangerous, it is still placed in front of God, and in front of mortals, the human empire is still that invincible empire, and it lacks nothing in the true sense.

Technology, people are already the strongest at present, even if they are stronger, they can become stronger and more invincible than stronger.

Territory, for the empire, territory has long been a joke, and the size of the physical territory is simply a matter of whether people want to or not, not whether they can or not.

Resources, the human empire still needs resources?

It's better to say that whether the resources themselves exist or not depends on the face of the empire, and a million dogs dare not appear without the empire's words to it.

In this case, the vassal state is more just a common-sense role play that the Human Empire must do in the Star Sea family when trying to play the role of a powerful and invincible civilized power.

It is also called:

Since I am already invincible in all aspects of heaven and earth, even if I am invincible, I have to become an enemy in front of me, so it is normal for me to go out with a little brother as a true invincible.

And this kind of loose servant management is of course because of the absolute strength of the empire, they dare not have two hearts, but for the same kind of people who also belong to the client state, they will not be as loyal as the empire.

As a younger brother, it is natural to perform better in front of the boss, and a successful younger brother needs to be more valuable in front of the boss, and the valuable little brother can mix better under the boss.

However, the position of the valuable little brother is limited, and the number of client states is endless, and each class has a corresponding position to be fought for by countless servant civilizations, and there are traces of war among them.

The market for proxy wars has gained a good soil for development, and these powerful client civilizations naturally know that war is the last option, but once this choice is made, finding a strong enough foreign aid is the most important thing.

Although the servant civilizations do not have the powerful technology of the Empire, they have access to the entire Empire's economic system, but they have a lot of foreign exchange points in their hands, is it strange to use these credits to hire military contractors in the empire to help them win this war?

Especially those who stand at the top of the vassal state civilizations, they generally do not go to war with each other, but once they do, then it is time to fight for who can hire more imperial military contractors.

Bai Ye is interested in this layer of the market, proxy wars are very lucrative industries, those client states will not start a war easily, but once the war starts, they will do whatever it takes to win the war to ensure that they win.

And this is not just mercenaries fighting, the agent war model is ever-changing, this is just a general term, the most common and the most lucrative model is called the "trickle of long-term war" commissioned scheme by industry insiders.

In addition, if you give money to hire your own civilization to sell a large number of cheap imperial weapons and armaments at a high price, arm the army of the other civilization at a price difference of three or even ten times, and even resell each other to ensure that the two forces will not end the war quickly because of the sudden increase in strength of one side.

For these military contractors, whether a war is good or not is not based on how low the number of casualties in the war is, and how quickly it ends, but how many weapons and ammunition you sell from it from start to finish, and how many credits you earn, and in the end no one finds out that you have done it.
