Resurrection Empire

Page 547

The Ministry of Commerce of Chifeng stated that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Although your Nanjiu Viscount Mansion always bullies me, suppresses me, and blocks me, I, the family of the noble Earl of the Chifeng clan, do not care about you. Now you have an energy gap, which happens to be on my side. It is far from a surplus, so it is better to sign a stable long-term large-scale supply contract, and I can supply 90% of the market price stably.

Although Gruen felt that something was weird, he was already on the verge of riding a tiger and couldn't be picky. He only signed the contract happily after consulting the Nanxiang Earl's Mansion.

Unknowingly, a few years later, accompanied by a burst of joyful celebrations, cheers resounded through the sky in the laboratory of Sierra Augustus, who has become one of the two major science academies.

Successful.

For the first time, they finally synthesized a super-large molecule that is exactly the same as the core composition of Chifeng Star's invisible paint.

Subsequently, the two major project teams of Serra and Vettel started the non-stop final synthesis.

After several years of simulation and fine-tuning, the final product was released, which is exactly the same invisible paint as Chifengxing's external supply.It was not Sierra Augustus who completed the final step, but Vettel Hatton.

Although it was only a handful the size of a fingernail, Gruen, who heard the news, burst into tears and was ecstatic.

He immediately reported the great news to Nanxiang Earl's Mansion.

But Liu Jin, who was in contact with him, asked him a question in a rather strange tone: "Just a little synthesis, what's the use? Now is not the time to be happy. The next thing you should think about is how to quickly expand production capacity."

Gruen froze on the spot.

The other party's meaning is very clear, and he has to continue to increase investment to turn this thing from a laboratory level into a mass-produced product.

On the surface, this is indeed possible, but there is a natural chasm lying in front of him.

He is out of money.

Totally gone.

He was completely drained by the affair.

The fixed assets that can be sold have basically been sold in sevens and eighties.

All that was left in his hands was the Shiyi fiefdom in the Nanjiu galaxy.

He also only has a fief.

Even most of the population and industries on the land have changed hands now.

The interstellar consortium has already completed its settlement.

Up to now, aside from the successful research and development of the invisible paint, his Viscount Nanjiu has changed from a prosperous and wealthy family to a lonely viscount who only relies on the basic food and fiefdom and can only collect a little tax.

He couldn't quite figure it out.

Why did he have to fall before the door even though he had spent so much effort to accomplish such a remarkable thing?

After fully understanding the composition of this thing, it is obviously very simple to expand the production capacity.

But now he really can't afford a penny.

Chapter 524 The Chosen Sequence

It seems that there are still two choices before the Nanjiu Viscount's Mansion, which has been completely drained.

Either resign to fate, give up struggling, stop the project here, and then slowly recuperate, use the two outstanding new scientific research stars Sierra and Vetter, and combine the original skills of the Augustus Academy of Sciences to develop again, and accumulate enough Once you have the assets, you can slowly map them.

This is the most reasonable choice, but the problem is that Uncle Nanxiang will not wait for him.

In just a few years, Uncle Chi Feng's earl audit will come to an end.

The royal inspector, who was hiding in the dark and peeping at the starry sky, would suddenly jump out and give a final verdict on the performance of Ren Zhong, the new earl of the empire, during the century-old review period.

If they can't take the bottom line and snatch Chifeng star's unique specialty invisible paint, then the rise of the Chifeng clan will be unstoppable.

Uncle Chifeng Renzhong will definitely be able to complete the review with the highest evaluation that has never been seen in hundreds of thousands of years, starting with a hundred planetary systems.

Leaving aside the threat to the life of Uncle Chifeng's mortal enemy Uncle Nanxiang, let's say that Nanjiu Viscount's Mansion has been accomplices to tigers in the past hundred years, and has made enemies of Chifeng Star in every way, which is enough for Uncle Chifeng to take on the role after gaining power. With one blow, Nanjiu Viscount's Mansion was easily destroyed.

Don't look at the various repairs of Chifeng Star and Nanjiu Viscount's Mansion, and even sell equipment and energy at a low price, but anyone with a brain knows that this is just an act of entitlement. Just make a fortune.

But the enmity between the two sides is already deep, and after Chi Feng Bo gains power, it is impossible not to take revenge.

Therefore, in fact, Gruen had only one choice before him, and that was to put all his eggs in one basket, take a desperate fight, and win or lose.

Gruen first put down his face and contacted the other eight family allies of the Augustus family, hoping to get some support.

These eight families were the eight families that traveled with the Augustus family and went to Origin Star to open up colonies.

In the Nanxiang star cluster, these nine viscounts have been friends for many years, and they often have marriages and exchanges of interests with each other.

Although since Gruen came to power, the eight alliances alienated the Augustus family a little bit because they had doubts about Southgate and Bercow's determination to give up, but later Gruen got Nanxiang Bo Liuan to show his support. Therefore, in the past hundred years, the nine viscounts have lived in peace, but there has been a lot of communication.

Unexpectedly, when Gruen personally begged to come to the door, he was beaten with eight hands of Tai Chi so that his consciousness was blurred, and he couldn't tell the difference between east, west, north, and south.

Especially when the heads of the five families of the Ying family, the Ma family, the Gao family, the Arson family, and the Tang family communicated with him, their nostrils were turned up so that they were almost perpendicular to the ecliptic plane of the ancient disk galaxy. None of them are interested.

It seemed that the Augustus family had been isolated overnight.

Gruen was confused and angry, but a closer look revealed something horrific.

It turned out that when he brought the other eight sources of starfleet VIPs back, although he almost returned empty-handed and only brought back a few trash, but later Chifeng Star began to accept employment from outsiders, and many of these eight sources actually belonged to the family. The people returned to their respective families as members of the Chifeng tribe.

After a hundred years of development, these people who have the noble surnames of viscounts, but are actually loyal to the Chifeng clan have successively held high positions in their respective viscount families, becoming factions with real power, and can even in turn influence the decisions of the eight viscounts themselves.

Ever since, Gruen was in a desperate situation again.

Just when he was at a loss, he finally ushered in a savior from heaven.

The interstellar consortium that had been siphoning into many assets of the Nanjiu Viscount's Mansion before seemed to have expected that his big project was at its last juncture, and sent the big housekeeper directly for a face-to-face meeting.

This mysterious joint interstellar consortium is really rich in financial resources. It seems to have endless assets. It has been able to eat up the tens of thousands of years of Nanjiu Viscount Augustus's accumulation. Not only is it not tired at all, but it still has spare energy He took out a lot of money and asked Gruen to complete a full loan like a firefight on the spot with the title of the Ninth Viscount of the South, all the fiefdoms and fixed properties that cannot be sold as collateral.

With such a scale, holding so much liquidity in his hands, even far surpassing the old Viscount, at least it can only be realized with the cooperation of a large number of Viscounts.

Gruen was puzzled.He really couldn't understand why a mysterious consortium suddenly appeared in the Nanxiang Star Cluster, but since the Secret Service of the Earl's Mansion of Nanxiang has repeatedly stated that this interstellar consortium has nothing to do with Chifeng Bo.Although the red-eyed Gruen was vigilant, he finally decided to fight.

Just two days later, this comprehensive mortgage contract involving many aspects and an extremely large amount, which is also very rare in the Nanxiang star cluster, came into effect.

A huge amount of money was poured into the account of Viscount Nanjiu in an instant.

Afterwards, Gruen summoned Sera and Vettel, and asked his uncle to lead the business team, and began to follow the requirements of these two scientific research twin stars, pouring out orders for instruments and industrial equipment with extremely high efficiency, and Recruit senior industrial managers.

It is also amazing to say that most of the orders placed by Nanjiu Viscount Mansion on the public bidding website of the Ministry of Commerce of the Empire were accepted by Chi Fengxing.

By this time, Gruen's feeling was getting weirder and weirder.

It seems that every time he takes a step forward in his poaching plan, he can see the target being poached standing in front of him cheerfully waiting for him, and enthusiastically selling cheap, affordable and easy-to-use electric picks, sledgehammers, and second-hand guns to him. Hammer and even an excavator.

Of course, doubts are doubts. Considering the convenience of transportation brought by the close distance between Chifeng Star and Nanjiu b Star, as well as the preferential quotation of Chifeng Star, Gruen still instructed the business team not to be shy, just let Chifeng Star take over one.

Anyway, the Nanxiang Earl's Mansion also explicitly allowed this matter.As long as he can snatch the patent right of the invisible paint, give Chifengxing a drudgery, and win the lawsuit that he must win, it doesn't matter how much money Chifengxing earns from him now.

Time passed bit by bit, and three years passed without knowing it. The secret factory located on the South Nine b star continued to improve its technology, optimize its configuration, and its production capacity continued to increase.

Although the production route chosen by the Augustus Academy of Sciences is not a biosynthetic model that uses mutated Star Destroyer Ants for mass production, its production costs are extremely high, even if it is a profitable industry, it is not easy to use. The paint is sold at the price of Chifengxing, and the profit will be extremely thin.

But Gruen doesn't think it's important, as long as he breaks off the patent rights of Ren Zhong first and holds the things in his hands, then he has the final say on whether to increase the price or limit the quantity.

Besides, the current cost is relatively high. To put it bluntly, it is because this is a new technology. As long as the scale continues to expand, the production line is further improved, and the process is slow, the cost can always be gradually reduced.

At that time, Nanjiu Viscount's Mansion will also be able to make a lot of money from this thing.

On the other hand, hearing that the plan of the Nanjiu Viscount Mansion is steadily advancing, and the production capacity is about to reach the minimum standard for industrial mass production, Bo Liu An of Nanxiang finally stopped freezing and sleeping, and started to prepare to take over the matter himself.

Following Liu An's order, the patent law enforcement agencies in the entire Nanxiang military and political hub started to act brazenly, and began to prepare for the next big lawsuit that would surely attract the attention of the world.

There are still two years before the end of the earl's review period.

Two years is enough to finish this "conclusive evidence" patent lawsuit.

The time dragged on for another two months, and the production capacity on Nanjiu b finally reached the standard.

Under the instruction of Liu An himself, Gruen immediately spent the last working capital and hired the top barrister team of Nanshan Law Firm, a super legal business organization in the Nanxiang Star Cluster, which can be said to be invincible in all battles. Initiate a formal lawsuit against Chi Feng Xing.

Since this was planned and then acted, Gruen and Nanshan Law Firm were very thorough in their preparations, and the chief court at the military and political hub was already in full swing, and it took only three days to formally file the case after completing all the pre-procedures.

Immediately afterwards, because the lawsuit involved patent rights, the case began to be publicized throughout the empire.

No one would have thought that a mere lawsuit would cause waves beyond imagination throughout the entire empire.

The influence is far from limited to the Nanxiang star cluster.

Overnight, in the huge mechanical empire, countless nobles, large or small, watched this matter with playful or unexpected eyes.

There is no other reason. Looking at the entire machine empire, even though there are tens of millions of earls, such lawsuits as Viscount Nanjiu suing Earl Chifeng are really rare, rare in decades.

Not only that, other people had just glanced at this matter at first, and opened the detailed information of Uncle Chi Feng out of curiosity, and they were pleasantly surprised after seeing it.

In less than 200 years, Uncle Chi Feng started as a low-level undocumented colonist in a C-level tracing colony. He forcibly relied on his amazing business ability, scientific research ability, combat ability, and commanding power. , Military talents turned out, broke through the siege in the trace colony, became a so-called high-ranking citizen, and even changed his life against the sky when the colony was about to set off and encountered a crisis of destruction, annihilated the god-level psychic demons, and then defeated them on the way back The fourth-class empress of the special scientific research type also obtained a complete set of giant germ cells, made great contributions, and was named uncle in one fell swoop.

This is not over yet, according to the public report of the Royal Academy of Sciences, the fourth-class empress who died in the army under the command of Uncle Chifeng is very likely to have developed a super invisible camouflage technology, which directly triggered the catastrophe that happened more than a hundred years ago. Instigator of the Great Defeat of the Empire.

This Uncle Chi Feng had avenged the trillions of soldiers who died in battle and many nobles in the distance.

What's even more amazing is that many nobles in the empire knew Nanxiang Earl Liu An's temperament, but such a young earl with a shallow foundation was able to lead the colonial fleet across a long distance and arrived safely in Nanxiang The star cluster forced Liu An to pinch his nose to recognize the new earl's neighbor.

Immediately afterwards, Uncle Chifeng hibernated for ten years, and used his fantastic ideas to transform a bipolar pie-shaped planet of ice and fire into the most livable round planet with extremely low cost and high efficiency.

It’s not over yet, after the planetary transformation is over, and after a short period of dormancy, Uncle Chi Feng has thoroughly read the genetic information in the fourth-class mother emperor’s giant colony cells, and has come up with a low-cost transformation paint that can comprehensively enhance the fleet’s invisibility. .

This Uncle Chi Feng is almost full of legends, which can only make people amazed.

Thanks to Ren Zhong's aura full of stories, many idle and boring imperial nobles simply put down the trivial matters in their hands, carefully pondered the patent lawsuit of the following criminals from beginning to end, and even after dinner It is used as a conversation material to communicate with each other.

I don't know who first threw out an amazing point of view on the information flow Internet.

It is only said that Uncle Chi Feng seems to have the appearance of the chosen one.

This person has both luck and strength, and it seems that he is destined to win the hearts of the people.

If not, it would be really difficult to explain why a low-level colonist could overcome difficulties in such a short period of time, and still be deeply loved by the entire planet race, and continue to work for him.

Of course, some people think that it is too early to talk about the chosen one at this time.

After all, from his debut to the present, Uncle Chi Feng has only had a record of fighting against the enemies of the Mechanical Empire with only a mere fourth-rank empress.

Although the weak defeated the strong, it still didn't explain too much.

When the many chosen ones of the past empires were born, which one either left great achievements on the frontal battlefield, or promoted the development of a whole technology behind the empire, or rapidly developed a huge star field from a backcountry? The bustling star regions with strong soldiers and horses have all made major contributions to the empire that have changed the world.

At present, Uncle Chifeng is too short of a fire.

However, some people also said that since the initial defeat, in recent years, the confrontation between the empire and the three major clans has repeatedly fallen into a disadvantage, and the situation is already in danger.According to the past law, this is the opportunity for the consciousness of the universe to once again pay attention to the machine empire, the original race of human beings, and it is time to give the machine empire a chosen one, and let him stand up and turn the tide.

Regardless of how much the outside world is arguing about, anyway, as soon as the concept of the Chosen One comes out, the heat of this matter will be raised again.

The astonishing heat from the outside world shocked Liu An, the initiator of the whole incident.

He felt a little regretful in his heart.

He had already overestimated the ability of Ren Zhong, but he never thought of the level of the Chosen One from the beginning to the end. He really miscalculated.

Later, Liu An activated the capabilities of the Secret Service to investigate who was the first to throw out the concept of the Chosen One on the Interstellar Network.

After looking at it, Liu An only gritted his teeth.

It was none other than Wen Yuanbo, the viscount of the royal family who had been deeply bound to Ren Zhong long ago.

"Damn!"

Liu An gritted his teeth in hatred, but there was nothing he could do.

Although he took advantage of his title and position to overwhelm Wen Yuanbo in the Nanxiang star cluster, he could only hide in the Lookout, and it was difficult for him to take root in the Nanxiang star cluster, but the skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and Wen Yuanbo With the blood of the royal family, even if it is a collateral branch, it is also the royal family.

At most, Liu An could only accuse the other party of oppressing him, but he never dared to take Wen Yuanbo's life rashly.

While the outside world was discussing the lawsuit endlessly, and all parties involved were pondering secretly, the court leaflet jointly signed by the Chief Minister of the Imperial Commerce Department and the Chief Minister of the Ministry of Justice finally arrived at the Chifeng Star Administrative Office through the information flow network.

An ugly daughter-in-law always has to see her parents-in-law, whether it's a donkey or a horse, she has to be pulled out for a walk.

The court met.

Chapter 525 Going to court, a fatal blow

Summoned by the Nanxiang military and political hub, Jin Simin, the chief executive officer of Chifeng at the time, set off from Chifeng star and led a small but elite fleet to leave the Nanjiu galaxy and go to the main administrative star of the Nanxiang star cluster.

The main administrative star of the Nanxiang star cluster is located in the center of the star cluster, and most of the surrounding areas are the fiefdoms of Nanxiang Bo Liu'an. Only a small piece of administrative galaxy permanently belonging to the imperial family hangs in it.

It's not that Uncle Chi Feng has the ambition to become a king, but that the Nanxiang star cluster has been in such a pattern since its fall and reconstruction.
