Chapter 148 Chapter 223: Development
One month later, Lin Xiao learned about the prices of these raw materials in the Universe Federation from the ambassador through Huangcheng, and became even more dissatisfied with these Federation merchants.

Rare raw materials that were originally expensive were brought down to the price of cabbage by federal businessmen.

This is not enough, these federal merchants also send goods to Hyosung to sell from time to time, increasing the price of plundered raw materials.

Lin Xiao is naturally unwilling. Although Tianhan Kingdom is not strong now, it needs raw materials for future development. In the long run, Tianhan Kingdom will have to buy back these raw materials at a high price, and it may not be possible to buy them. , which is very uneconomical.

For this reason, the Central Council of the Han Kingdom directly issued a restriction order to greatly limit the impact of federal goods.

This move also made the federal merchants very dissatisfied. In order to make the Tianhan Kingdom surrender, they directly moved out of the factory for assistance, and they were all responsible for this.

"These greedy bastards!" Lin Xiao was so angry that he slammed the teacup in his hand on the floor after hearing the news.

According to the aid agreement, Tianhan Kingdom had already paid enough raw materials, but these federal businessmen didn't want to leave anything to Tianhan Kingdom at all. They were so greedy that Lin Xiao's face was completely darkened.

There is no way, the federal merchants are now the lifeblood of the Tianhan Kingdom, unless they don't want this aid.

But things will not be so simple, even if Tianhan Kingdom breaks the contract, the Universe Federation will make him succumb with its strong strength.

Lin Xiao also thought about this, and in the end he could only choose to compromise, but he didn't want to make the federal merchants so comfortable. The restriction order was lifted, but the tariffs were greatly increased. Not only that, but also secretly launched a nationwide boycott movement.

It is impossible for the federal merchants to plunder with cheap goods like before. They can only take out really good things, which can be regarded as bleeding.

This is also to the extent that it has not been done thoroughly, so the gain will not be worth the loss.

This time the turmoil has finally subsided. In the eyes of the Universe Federation, Tianhan Kingdom has taken out everything it can, and then it only needs to develop with peace of mind. This is what Tianhan Kingdom is willing to see.

The two sides reached an agreement on the goal, and a year passed in a blink of an eye.

In this year's world, Tianhan Kingdom already has 20 fully automatic mechanized factories, all of which are located in the newly built industrial city. The basic industrial city is currently not well completed, but the potential is huge. The rapid prototyping also radiated to Xiaozhou City.

The scale of the city is also expanding further, but the gap between the rich and the poor is astounding.

Advanced cities already have the preliminary level of an interstellar country. Lin Xiao calls them ultra-modern. Such cities are rare and small in scale.

The backbone is modern cities, and the bottom is very ordinary cities, only a little stronger than the early industrial days.

As for the countryside, the Tianhan Kingdom has not yet appeared. Because of its uniqueness, all farmland is managed by the national unified automation equipment, which is very efficient and frees up a lot of labor.

It's just that due to the intervention of the Universe Federation, Lin Xiao's creation of clones is not as blatant as before, so the population of Tianhan Kingdom has not been greatly improved.

The federal merchants also seemed to have seen the purchasing power of Tianhan Kingdom, and the number of trips between them was not as frequent as before. Some merchants who didn't get the soup simply chose to go back.

There are only a small number of powerful businessmen left. They made a lot of money in Tianhan Kingdom and increased their assistance to the space station. The original small space was directly expanded into a medium-sized space, and the space elevator connected to it was quickly completed.

With the help of these federal businessmen, the Tianhan Kingdom was finally able to garrison troops in space, which also had a very good effect on development.

Coupled with Lin Xiao's secret arrangement, the Central Council purchased weapons from the Cosmic Federation Government. After paying a certain price, all the soldiers of a regiment of the space station had their equipment updated. They were all replaced with exoskeleton armor and various weapons and equipment. Greatly improve.

Although their weapons and equipment can only be regarded as mediocre in the Federation, their combat effectiveness is still terrifying due to the fact that clones are not afraid of death. Moreover, the space has also been replaced with defensive automatic artillery, even if they are facing one or two fully armed frigates. It can also be easily destroyed.

It is a thing of the past for the federal merchants to use a frigate to intimidate the Tianhan Kingdom.

This is also a strategy of Lin Xiao. He learned from the federation ambassador that the relationship between the federation merchants and the federation government is not very good.

It is equivalent to the federal government as the United Nations, and those federal businessmen are the spokespersons of each member state.

These member states are big or small, and the powerful face of the federal government has to be in awe. It is completely obedient and disobedient. And these plundering of Hyosung’s raw materials, these powerful member states make huge profits, and the federal government only gets a sip of the soup. .

Lin Xiao took advantage of this and contacted the federal government with the help of the federal ambassador to make a deal.

Naturally, the federal government would not let go of the opportunity to make money, and the two hit it off.

Lin Xiao is still very satisfied with this transaction. Tianhan finally has its own defense force. In order to further strengthen it, he even allocates nuclear bombs to the troops stationed in the space station, which can be used as conventional bombs when necessary.

Anyway, in space, the impact on our side is not too great.

Moreover, after the troops were stationed here, the Federation merchants realized that they were not as arrogant as before. Originally, they were wise enough to expand the space station to facilitate cargo transportation. green.

In addition, according to the news from the Federation merchants, the United Stars have begun to gather troops in the Tianhe Star Region, and it seems that they are going to launch an attack on the Leysta Kingdom in the Tianhe Star Region soon.

This had a great impact on the Federation merchants. Their supplies were all transported from the Tianhe Star Field. At this time, the United Stars were preparing to launch an attack, which meant that this business route would be temporarily interrupted.

For the sake of their own lives, many federal businessmen chose to return. Of course they could stay in Xiaoxing, but Tianhan Kingdom let them down not long ago, so they didn't want to stay here for a long time.

What's more, Xiaoxing is very desolate. To them, it is a remote country. It's okay for a short time, but it's really unbearable to stay here for a long time.

Seeing that the federal businessmen were about to leave, Lin Xiao felt better. He wished that these vampires would get out of here. This year, they have made huge profits on Hyosung. They have no investment except for a space station. stingy.

This group of people was extremely arrogant. If the ministers of the Central Council hadn't blocked them, Lin Xiao would beat them up every time he saw them.

In just a few days, the federal businessmen left one after another. They like money, but they also cherish their lives. Xiaoxing has nothing to offer, not to mention that this place is still within the sphere of influence of the Lianxing people.

They didn't want to pin their lives on luck and evacuate before the United Stars launched a general attack.

The group of cowardly vampires disappeared before his eyes, Lin Xiao was in a good mood, and prepared to set off a fireworks feast to celebrate.

"Master, it's not good for us to set off fireworks to celebrate as soon as those people left." Chocolate expressed some concern.

Lin Xiao smiled softly: "What's wrong, don't you want to set off fireworks?"

"Think." Chocolat nodded, her thoughts were surprisingly consistent with Lin Xiao's.
