Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

99. The right person

After listening, Francis Underwood took a sip of coffee and said slowly: “That is to say, in your plan, you approached Hego in order to obtain the InterGalactic Banking Clan. Support, because you know that in 13 years, there’s going to be a massive civil war in the galaxy?”

Tang Xiao did not tell Francis that Hego would die in 3 years, he just stated Mainly for what he knows about Galactic Republic politics. He said with a nod: “So I have to finish the preparations within 13 years, and then get enough results in that civil war.”

“That is, in the place that will be independent from the Galactic Republic. Confederacy of Independent Systems, right? Getting enough of the Confederacy through the war to get high enough with that nascent regime,” Francis said.

“The political environment within Confederacy is equally complicated, or, because of the participation of many oligarchic enterprises, the politics of Confederacy are more corrupt. But this is not something we need to worry about now.” Tang Xiao said.

“It seems that you are very sure about all of this, is this your special ability.” Francis said with interest, “Since you can predict the future, then you can predict us the future?”

With a piercing question, Francis immediately found out that the future that Tang Xiao had just mentioned was missing a part – themselves.

“I said, what I see is one of the futures of this galaxy, but I can’t see our future. Or…” Tang Xiao smiled and put a teacup on the corner of the table Said: “Just like this teacup, I love it, so I’m going to keep this teacup for a long time, so I’ll seal it up and put it in an underground safe, so that nothing can touch it…”

But he tone barely fell, knocking the teacup down with a swing of his hand.

ka-cha, the teacup fell to the ground and shattered.

“But I just decided not to give it this future.” Tang Xiao stared into Francis’ eyes and said slowly.

“Then what’s the point of what you just said about the future of galaxy?” Francis asked with a smile.

“Wrong question.” Tang Xiao replied.

“Then what is right?”

“The right question should be, where can we… in this future?”

Francis laughed, stood up, buttoned up the suit, and said very solemnly to Tang Xiao extend the hand: “I think I can start working, but I must say that if you promise the future If it doesn’t exist, then…”

He said with a pun.

“Then I will apologize with death, and you will be the new leader of Fourth Civilization.” Tang Xiao replied solemnly, extending the hand and clenching Francis.

“Administrator, know that power is like real estate, the most important thing is always location. The closer your location is to the source, the more valuable you are. So, I guess I’m not going to die so easily .” Francis smiled slightly, “Come back, Sheev Palpatine, future Supreme Chancellor, Galactic Emperor, winner, loser…I can’t wait to meet someone like that.”

” Feel free to ask for any help you need, and I will do my best to satisfy it.” Tang Xiao said.

“I need to wake up my wife, Claire Underwood, and my Chief of Staff, Doug Stamper,” Francis said.

“I’ll arrange it immediately.”

“There is another point, Administrator. The so-called politics, you can think of it as a chess game. But a chess game requires chess pieces, and this chess piece It may be power, relationships or money. But we don’t have many chess pieces, so at the very least, we need to ensure the supply of money. I think I will often ask you for money.”

“No problem, the entire Fourth Civilization money will be ready at any time. In addition, we have an office team in Planet Coruscant, person-in-charge called Rosanna Goodes, you can contact her to help you arrange.”

“Then I have nothing else to do.” Francis smiled noddéd, “Administrator.”

…

After Francis Underwood left, Tang Xiao was relieved and sat down. Sofa looking at the ceiling motionless. He only felt a little scared now, not because of how powerful Francis Underwood was, in fact, Tang Xiao could kill him with just a touch of his fingers.

But Francis is indeed the most suitable person for the current situation and is also very powerful, and as Tang Xiao expected, his so-called loyalty to Administrator is snort disdainfully. In other words, Tang Xiao can only persuade him through his own abilities, eloquence, and interests, so as to gain his loyalty.

This is not an easy task. If Tang Xiao has such eloquence, then he can go to Coruscant to fight against the Confucian scholars and gain enough political status for Fourth Civilization. However, he didn’t, so Tang Xiao adopted the most direct method – the temptation of profit.

He knew Francis craved power, so he gave him power, and a position no one else could ever give him – Imperial Prime Minister!

Tang Xiao is serious.

“I really want to take a vacation…” Tang Xiao, exhausted, groaned, leaned on the back of the sofa and said, “MainBrain, send me the exercise program Hego left for me. “

[There are no plans, Administrator. Mr. Hego was just left with a goal. He requires you to drop your body fat to 10% and increase your body mass to 45% within three months. Are there any other goals that need to be listed? ]

“Fuck! No one ever told me that I need to train with the Force!” Tang Xiao muttered and cursed, but still said to MainBrain: “Help me arrange a fitness trainer. Well, um, there should be a fitness trainer among the hibernating personnel?”

[Actually, I would suggest having your bodyguard, the T-850, help you train directly. There are complete workout programs in its database. ]

Tang Xiao turned around and looked at the T-850 with the face of Arnold Schwarzenegger and the standard inverted triangle body. Although he understands that this is just a shape made of bionic skin, in any case, letting Arnold Schwarzenegger personally supervise his fitness is definitely a very interesting thing, right?

“Okay, MainBrain, help me adjust my schedule. I need at least 2 to 4 hours of exercise every day.” Tang Xiao said.

[Ok Administrator, your schedule has been adjusted. Also, Daphne Clement is looking for you, and you need to see for yourself some of the things you brought back last time. ]
