Interstellar Farmer

Chapter 248: Willing to Give Up

In an ordinary political hall of the West Palace, there are thousands of high-ranking imperial officials sitting in rows. On the high throne, of course, is the current emperor William XIV. In the middle of the hall, there is a stone from the subordinate country Cary. The king's audience delegation from the Kingdom was led by the king himself, King Gary.

The Kingdom of Gary is a very small country, and its dependence on West is also very deep. It can be said that if West wants to destroy a country like it, it will only take a matter of minutes, and it does not even need to use the people in the capital area. Any Royal Fleet. However, the Kingdom of Gary is still a complete country in name, and it also has basic national sovereignty on the surface. Therefore, such situations must be included in the foreign affairs activities between countries.

Regarding the arrival of King Gary, William was very graceful this time and did not act like a shop bully. He took a little time out of his busy schedule to receive him. Of course, it must be the smallest in terms of scale, and even this scale flattered King Gary. You know, in the past, when the standards were at their highest, it was just a palace supervisor who came forward.

Your Majesty, I sincerely hope to join your country. And before coming, I also held a national vote and passed it unanimously. I hope that your Majesty will see that all the people of the 'Gali Country' are eagerly awaiting For my sake... please grant your Majesty's permission! Although it was just an ordinary place among many halls, the royal majesty that pervaded it made King Gary tremble. There was no nonsense at all. After submitting his credentials, King Gary got straight to the point and stuttered out the familiar lines he had memorized long ago.

West has the most complete and rigorous intelligence system in the Sig Star Territory. Of course, he will pay great attention to the country within the country. Before King Gary leaves, William already has a rough idea of ​​his purpose. .

William did not express his position immediately. He glanced at the seat below him in deep thought. A minister who was in charge of the affairs of the vassal states stood up. After asking William for instructions, he asked King Gary: Your Excellency, King Gary, I I think you are also aware that our country has strict regulations on individuals and groups applying for naturalization, especially the annexation of the entire country, which must undergo extremely strict review, so we cannot give you an accurate answer yet.

I understand, I understand, this little one understands, even though King Gary is also a king in his own country, but in West, especially in this place that represents the center of West's power. , it means nothing. His posture was at its lowest point, lest he offend anyone, because anyone who could appear here would easily embarrass him.

As if he was too scared, King Gary looked like he had just remembered, By the way, Mr. Minister Kesen, I was so nervous just now that I forgot a big thing: all my people also spontaneously carried out the I have organized a nationwide fundraiser to show my admiration for your country. Because the country is small and weak, the funds and materials raised are really not much, but this is the heart of all my people. I hope your country will not dislike it. . After finishing speaking, he took out a record book and respectfully raised his hands.

William looked at King Gary who had his head lowered below, and nodded slightly. The royal chamberlain came out and received the record book.

After the record book was taken away, King Gary obviously breathed a sigh of relief, and William no longer put on airs. After saying a few gentle words to him, he handed it over to Minister Kesen to send him away.

Two foreign affairs activities that could not be carried out on the same level were ended in less than ten minutes when the court was about to disperse, and a temporary special increase was added. After William named a few people in charge, he left under the protection of the chamberlain.

In the imperial study room, the record book was connected to the super brain, and seven or eight large and small holographic screens allowed everyone to clearly see the contents.

No one and no one dared to appear in the palace with physical objects. The record book was just a list. At the front of the list is a clear list of gifts, and at the back is a list of names, very detailed, but not many in number, not more than a hundred. This is what King Gary said about the entire kingdom. Of course, these subjects are all nobles, and they are also the aristocratic group that has the closest relationship with King Gary. As for the civilians in the country, they are just property, and naturally they cannot be counted among the subjects Come.

This algorithm is not unique to the Kingdom of Gary. On the contrary, it has become a routine method in the universe and is extremely common. Well, the common ratio accounts for at least more than half! Even in countries that hold high the banner of democracy and republic, such situations are not uncommon.

Oh, it's amazing. A country as small as Gary can actually come up with this gift. Didn't it empty its treasury to send it? Kesen, you are in charge of this matter. Let me express your opinion. . After William glanced twice, the corners of his mouth slightly curved upward.

Reporting to your Majesty, if we look at the previous situation of the 'Kingdom of Gary', the gift he gave could not be obtained even if the treasury was emptied. However, in the past few years, he has sold 111 Fifteen administrative planets! The prices are all cash transactions, and the transaction price is also extremely high. That's why he has the ability to come up with this gift. The current Gary Kingdom has only ninety-six planets. But. Mori stood up and replied respectfully.

Oh, more than a hundred, William was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, They were all sold to Xiao Han Zhen, right?

Yes, Your Majesty, not only were the 115 planets in the Kingdom of Gary purchased by Count Han Zhen, but the twenty-six planets belonging to our country close to the Kingdom of Gary were also split up by Count Han Zhen and acquired. Maximum service life. Kesen's words were full of reminders. The method of splitting up is to purchase a planet by several unrelated chambers of commerce or groups, but behind these companies is a boss who clearly understands the actual situation and takes advantage of the loopholes in the management terms of the West Planet to achieve the acquisition. Complete control of the entire planet. Of course, West will not advocate the method of splitting up, but what is interesting is that almost all the families in West who are on the stage will use this method to establish their own base or family territory. Of course, that cannot be on the stage after all. Things need to be done very slowly, and the number of planets controlled cannot be too many. After all, there are powerful families watching above! But Han Zhen was different. He was almost blatant. He had just registered a chamber of commerce and company, and he had won more than 20 in just a few years! It’s more than a middle-class family in China has in thousands of years!

William thought for a while and then said calmly: Well, Kesen, you send someone to give him a try. Why does this little guy look so dazed! After he comes over, maybe I should consider giving him some training. A few instructors!”

Yes, Your Majesty! Kesen understood what William meant. If other families did such a thing, it would be a light thing to ban the family name, but Han Zhen was treated so lightly, not at all. There is no doubt that in the eyes of the emperor, Han Zhen is a popular person, or the kind that is red and purple! If coupled with the prince's close attitude towards Han Zhen... Ke Sen couldn't help but shudder: He hated those families who let him test them!

By the way, is Xiao Han really offering a high price? It's only been a few years! A few days ago, I heard that there were only more than fifty pills. How come there are more than a hundred pills in the blink of an eye? William looked at it. Minister Hexi, who was called together with Kesen, was one of the three ministers of the Internal Intelligence Department. When Han Zhen started to acquire the planet of the Kingdom of Gary, William specifically asked him to pay attention to it after receiving the report. So it was right to ask him.

Reporting to your majesty, Han Zhen purchased the twenty-six planets of our country at double the current market price; the 'Kingdom of Gary' is even more impressive. All were settled in cash at the same price as our planets (Threat) The price of land in West is recognized as the highest in the Sig Star Region. For the same planet, the price of the Kingdom of Gary is less than half that of West); because these planets of Han Zhen are located in Asia where resources are scarce and are not favored by merchants and chambers of commerce. Meixing Province is the most remote area in the province, which allowed Count Han Zhen to complete the acquisition in a short time. He Xi said as he took out a record book he carried with him, which contained all the transaction prices investigated.

That means that what Gary sent over was the money Han Zhen gave after buying his planet? But that's not right! Judging from the transaction volume of this item, Gary would have to spend more than half of it. Come with the money! Huh? Hershey, do you think Gary will be so generous? Naturally, the small Kingdom of Gary will not be remembered by the majestic Emperor West. Although the amount in this list can be weighed It's a lot, but it won't attract too much attention from William. What interests William is Gary's courage: if he can spend more than half of his own treasury in tribute, he is either a fool or a person, and someone who can become the head of a country will naturally It couldn't be the former. For this reason, William became interested.

Huh? What's going on? When William saw the last listed data, he was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise: Why are there so many more? What's going on with the last item? There's not yet Indicate the specific purpose?”

Your Majesty, this is what we have been checking these days, but with Gary's appearance today, I think I already know the purpose of this money! The last item, the amount is equal to the sum of all the previous planets, also makes the final The total has almost doubled.

When William heard this, he immediately understood. Chao Kesen asked: The more than 100 planets that Xiao Han really bought are still under the name of 'Kingdom of Gary'?

After receiving the affirmation, William thought for a while and said with a strange expression: I take back what I said before. Not only is this little Han Zhen not a fool, he is also a slippery ghost. He has taken advantage of all the loopholes he can take advantage of! Look! Come on, you don’t need to send an instructor to him, but you should send a few inspectors!”

The list of gifts presented by Gary can be said to have been given by Han Zhen, and the matter of asking Gary to come here must have been instigated by Han Zhen: Although a small country like the Kingdom of Gary has so-called autonomy, the current situation is... Embarrassingly, West is not that interested in such small countries. It would be more cost-effective to conquer them than to pay tribute to them every year, and there won’t be too many scruples in doing so; and anyone who wants to become a West country can We know that West's welfare is good and the people's status is high, but it is not that easy to get into. The first fee alone can be daunting. Now, Gary has retained all his property and can join West for free. He would be a fool not to do such a good thing.

With planets and huge donations, it was not difficult for Gary to get a noble name in West, and with the retained property, it was also easy to establish a medium-sized chamber of commerce... And what about Han Zhen? Now that the entire Kingdom of Gary has joined West, naturally Han Zhen's 115 planets will be no exception.

There are clear provisions in the West Private Property Law. For small countries like the Kingdom of Gary that joins, the planets owned by the nobles in the country, which are Gary's own private clan stars, will be taken away together. It will not be given to them in the future. How much you give is another matter; however, the country's hereditary nobles, administrative planets purchased abroad, and resource levels lower than level five are not included in this list.

It’s not like no one has thought of this method. There are many smart people in the universe! But there are still very few people who can buy more than a hundred pills at one time like Han Zhen. First of all, it requires the status of a hereditary noble, which can eliminate most people; secondly, the resource level is lower than the fifth level, which is divided by West based on the rarity of the minerals on the planet, such as the Kingdom of Gary The country has been able to exist until now, but it is extremely poor in resources and is a typical useless area. Almost all planets are below level five. The only few high ones are avoided by Han Zhen in advance. Finally, Han Zhen is rich, and he is not an ordinary rich person. Money, in terms of working capital alone, is very scary, and he is willing to spend money. The money he spends is absolutely astronomical, and what he gets, in the eyes of others, is nothing more than junk.

It would be more cost-effective to spend such a huge price to only obtain some junk stars. It would be more cost-effective to buy some planets with high resource levels abroad. And if you want to make this loss-making business, you also need hereditary status, but with hereditary status, nobles do not I will pursue this aspect... Various restrictions and terms allowed Han Zhen to gain the foothold he most desired!

William said to the chamberlain standing next to him: Bring me the intelligence the prince has received this week.

As an emperor, he can obtain the more secure super-encrypted communications in the universe without letting the other party sleep. In addition, the intelligence sent to Ziegler is all sent to the capital, with a confirmed destination and With the emperor's order, it is not surprising that he obtained the intelligence sent to the prince.

No wonder the prince told me two days ago that he had done a big business that would make me a lot of money, but he had to give me the green light. So I thought about what kind of business he could do, and I also used it. Big? He asked at that time, and he said mysteriously that I would know of course, William, who understood the cause and effect after reading the intelligence sent to Ziegler, now had a smile on his face and talked to everyone present in a relaxed manner. Several ministers chatted about their daily life, I thought at that time, OK! It's rare for the prince to be so interested. Even if he loses money, it's good to get some experience! Haha, that's it!

William is indeed very happy. He has always thought that his son is too honest and honest. If this temperament were placed among ordinary people, it would not be a big problem, but he is a prince! Those who are destined to become emperors lack the courage and scheming to become emperors. I am not afraid that you will be bad, but I am afraid that you will be good! Bold, ruthless, dark-hearted, and thick-skinned, who dares to say that this is not the way of an emperor? Benevolence and righteousness, if countries talk about benevolence and righteousness, how can I, West, be in the spotlight? The big fish eats the small fish, and the small fish eats the shrimp. This is the most direct manifestation of the relationship between countries!

After talking about his family life, William fell into deep thought: Fortunately, in the years after contacting Han Zhen, he found that his son had changed a lot. Although he was not too satisfied with his temperament, it also made him feel relieved. Han Zhen has a very close relationship with his son. He writes a letter almost every two days, and he secretly reads it once a week. See how they are shady, how they get the most benefits, how they act as leaders, and how they even exchange ideas enthusiastically with women. Every time I watch it, I can't help but laugh. It can be said that Han Zhen's influence is greater than that of the Imperial Master and even himself! I was jealous for a while, but now I have figured it out, my son! He has to let his sworn brothers from Earth teach better!

Take this matter as an example. His son actually put forward several constructive suggestions. When buying Gary, his son took the initiative to ask Han Zhen to increase his bargaining chip. Okay! William didn't speak, and the ministers didn't dare to disturb him. Now William smiled so brightly that the ministers were confused.

I am extremely happy that Han Zhen is willing to come back from Weixi, which shows that the influence on his son will be further strengthened; the most rare thing is that through observations in the past few years, Han Zhen and his son are indeed sincere. intersect. Two sworn brothers who are like teachers and friends, close friends, and close friends? This is what many emperors hope for, but they never expected that their son would meet one! Han Zhen, why did I just think of him as a fool? If he was a fool, there would be no smart people! The more the boy investigates, the more he feels that it is not simple. Oh, and there is no need to investigate. Just by looking at the phone call between the two, you will know that his technology in agriculture and intelligence is definitely better than that of West, especially in agriculture. There are so many! For him, it is necessary to attract West. Even if it is not about technology, his influence on his son is enough to make his own decision!

William, who came back to his senses, realized his gaffe. Fortunately, the ministers had a tacit understanding and lowered their heads in advance to avoid embarrassment. After coughing, they adjusted themselves:

He Xi, have you calculated how much of Xiao Hanzhen's total investment in acquiring the planet accounted for his total funds?

Reporting to Your Majesty, He Xi took out his portable smart computer and calculated, At least 70% or more!

Seventy percent! That's incredible! If you give up, give up, you will get something if you give up! William looked at Kesen: You will pass the naturalization of the Kingdom of Gary as soon as possible. Well, it won't be the same next time! After saying this, William said to the minister He left with the sound of farewell.
