"There is no obstacle to the establishment of a hyperspace communication node. In fact, the reason why their representatives drove a Munificent-class Frigate over was to show their strength on the one hand, and for convenience on the other. Because each Munificent-class Frigate has Hyperspace communication nodes installed, and it is the countless Munificent-class Frigates that are maintaining the financial information network of the Interstellar Banking Clan," Shelby said.
"Then what are they thinking? To keep this Munificent-class Frigate in our System?" Tang Xiao frowned.
Shelby smiled bitterly and said: "They just want us to rent this Battleship, but all the crew members of the Battleship must be their own people. We can only make suggestions on the actions of the Battleship, and it cannot leave the System. Once it leaves Endor System, we have no right to interfere with any behavior of this Battleship."
"Then, what about the rent?" Tang Xiao asked.
"A standard annual rent is 2 million credits, and the loss caused by a battle will be calculated separately."
"What is your opinion on this matter?"
"Rejection is for sure, but according to my judgment, there may be other meanings behind this proposal." Shelby changed her posture, which was more convenient for Tang Xiao to peep.
"Another meaning?"
Shelby looked at Tang Xiao's gaze and finally confirmed that the Supreme Commander was not looking at her at all, so her tone became more serious, "He said that the Galaxy is full of dangers, if we reject this proposal, we'd better do it ourselves, as if..."
"Do you know that there will be danger?" Tang Xiao smiled lightly, "Don't worry about him, this condition is obviously extortion, just refuse it."
"Indeed, so I explicitly refused. The hyperspace communication network will be installed separately. Then there is the issue of importing Droids. How should I put it, they are very enthusiastic about this. We originally only wanted to import 1 million Droids, but they want us to bring in 10 million units, all of which are B-1 Droids."
"Then what do we need to pay?" Tang Xiao asked.
"This is the last proposal, production capacity mortgage. Damask Holding Group agreed to help us build a planetary mining base and build a large-scale parts processing plant and robot factory, but after these facilities start operating, the annual production capacity in the first five years 30% of the company must be owned by Damask Holding Group." Shelby said.
"How about specifics?"
"Not to mention 30% of the production capacity of the mining base, but after the parts Processing Plant and Droid Factory are completed, they need to accept orders equivalent to 30% of the plant's production capacity every year, and it is free. And under this condition, 30 % is just a number, but there are many opinions about the specific output and production capacity, and it is estimated that they intend to squeeze our value."
"Anything else?"
"The other thing is that they want to buy 30% of the shares of the Fourth Group. This condition..." Shelby shook his head, "We are not listed, and we don't know that the Galactic Republic does not have a similar economic mechanism, but this is still... "
Tang Xiao smiled slightly, "Promise them, you can buy 30% of the shares, but the decision-making power must be in our hands, and they must follow up on all our investment plans."
"But even so, judging from our current development prospects, this is completely taken advantage of by them." Shelby couldn't understand Tang Xiao's decision.
We must know that the development speed of the Fourth Civilization is now visible to the naked eye, and it has reached its current level in more than half a year. Under such circumstances, if they give up 30% of the shares, the Damask Holding Group can occupy 30% of the future development dividend of the Fourth Civilization at very little cost!!
Tang Xiao just said plainly: "It doesn't matter, the Fourth Group is not equal to the Fourth Civilization. And I have my own plans for the Damask Holding Group. You have to understand that our cooperation this time has political factors a little more. All other conditions don't matter, including those of me who killed them. But if you don't give this 30% of the shares, Hego Damask II will not trust us. All the cooperation, there is no plan to talk about."
In business and business, it is impossible for Hego to give Tang Xiao any preferential treatment because of his master-student relationship. What's more, Tang Xiao has only just become a teacher.
As for the 30% stake, it is actually a secondary issue. The game between him and Hego, or Darth Plagueis, has already begun.
This game is about life and death.
If Darth Plagueis knew that Tang Xiao was plotting against him, then even Tang Xiao and the entire Fourth Civilization might not be able to last for a day before being wiped out by the fleet of the Interstellar Banking Clan. But if Tang Xiao can successfully achieve his plan, not to mention 30% of the shares, even 60% of the shares can be given to him.
Anyway, by that time, the entire Damask Holding Group will be his.
Gross Shelby bowed her head and said: "Good, Supreme Commander if this is your final decision, I will reply to Damask Holding Group immediately."
"You have to understand one thing, Shelby. That is, all projects that are beneficial to the development of our Fourth Civilization must be won by any means. For this reason, we will not hesitate to sacrifice anything." Tang Xiao said in a deep voice.
"Yes! Supreme Commander."
After Shelby left, Tang Xiao turned his head and said to a pot of green plants next to him, "What do you think, my chief financial advisor, Semid."
"I don't quite know your plan, Supreme Commander. This series of clauses is too risky. From what I know about Hego Damask II, the ultimate purpose of this series of clauses is to swallow us whole." The Muun advisor's voice came from that direction.
Over there, it turned out that a set of monitoring equipment was hidden.
"If there was a chance, would you want revenge?" Tang Xiao raised his legs and crossed his hands on his knees.
"..." Semid was silent.
"You can tell me the truth, Semid. Because no matter what you say, it won't change your current situation—that is to die by seeing the light." Tang Xiao said.
"I...want revenge. Hego Damask II, he used me. He promised me that after bringing down the Hill family, I will be the next Interstellar Banking Clan to succeed San Hill the Co-chairman. But the final result..." Semid's voice began to fluctuate, "When Hill's people came to the door of my office, I already knew that the situation was over, and Hego betrayed me."
"But you escaped anyway, it's hard to imagine that you could do it alone."
