923 The Old Fox and the Lobbyist

Thinking of Sorokin's information in his heart, Han Xiao's face was as usual, and then Sorokin's words began with a question, and his tone was interested:

"I wonder how you're going to cooperate?"

"The Shining World is a rare business opportunity, I heard that the Red Empire will divide the territory among the allies who participated in the opening of the wasteland, and when the new star field is opened in the future, the Shining World will be incorporated into the circulation system of the whole universe, and then countless interstellar citizens will pour in, and this star field will usher in explosive development, and the imperial allies who sit on these territories are the biggest winners, so we hope to invest heavily in the Black Star Legion and build the territory in advance with you."

As he spoke, Sorokin smiled faintly, "Our Infinite Consortium invests in the whole universe and does not miss any business opportunities, presumably Your Excellency Blackstar also knows our financial resources, and with our help, building the territory will get twice the result with half the effort." ”

"Yes, the market capitalization of the Infinity Consortium...... It's amazing indeed, and I don't doubt your strength. Han Xiao nodded.

Many subsidiaries of the Infinity Consortium have been listed on the interstellar stock market in different regions early, and their market capitalization is transparent and open.

Resources are often gathered in the hands of a few, and in the interstellar age, the gap between the rich and the poor is as wide as the difference between a beast on the surface and a citizen of a cosmic civilization.

The development of the world's turf by the allies of the empire is inevitably supported by various consortia, and it is also a means of cost-sharing and commercial cooperation, and the Red Empire itself also acquiesces in the signing of contracts with the consortium to build together.

It doesn't sound like there's a problem, it's indeed the normal interest appeal of the consortium forces, it's just that Sorokin is this guy, hmm...... Han Xiao's face did not change, but he was muttering secretly in his heart.

Seeing that Han Xiao didn't show his attitude, Sorokin narrowed his eyes and continued: "The Black Star Legion now has a huge business, it is located in the Broken Star Ring, and in terms of financial resources alone, it is no longer inferior to the first-line large consortium, because of its deep background, extensive connections, and the support of the empire, its status is very stable, if the Black Star Legion is listed and issues credit coupons, it will definitely attract countless interstellar citizens to come and invest, and it is not a problem to increase the market value dozens of times." ”

"What do you mean?" Han Xiao raised his eyebrows.

Sorokin smiled, "It just so happens that our Infinite Consortium is experienced in this area, and if the Black Star Legion has an idea, we are happy to help the Black Star Legion raise ...... publicly."

"We'll talk about that later." Han Xiao interrupted Sorokin's words, this thing is the authentic cutting leek, but for now, there are pros and cons, he doesn't have this idea for the time being.

Hearing this, Sorokin also stopped the topic at the right time and asked, "Then what does Your Excellency Black Star think of my request for cooperation. ”

Han Xiao thought for a while, and asked in a deep voice: "I'm not the only one who can develop the shining world, it stands to reason that after the territory allocated by each family is determined, those consortia will look to the wind and choose high-quality territory to cooperate, and now that the allies have not chosen the territory, you are so sure to bet on me?." ”

"Haha, I also have some connections in the Red Empire, and I have received some inside information, and even if I don't have this relationship, with your contributions in the Battle of Lighthouse Star and the Fall of the Alien God, as well as the strategic-level evolution cube in your hand, I know that the territory given to you by the Empire must be the best, in this case, why should I hesitate."

Sorokin smiled.

This is not a lie, if there is no entanglement of interests behind him, let him choose an imperial ally to invest, he will also choose the Black Star Legion, with Han Xiao's record and importance, everyone knows that the Black Star Legion will definitely be able to get the biggest piece of fat.

It's just a pity......

"Is that so......" Han Xiao glanced at Sorokin deeply.

This guy is sincere, full of sincerity, and his words are in line with his interests, and he seems to really want to cooperate with me......

But because of Sorokin's attempt to intervene in the Gulal Civil War, Han Xiao never let down his guard, hesitated for a while, and asked, "If I promise to cooperate with you, are you going to sign a contract with me now?" ”

"Not really." Sorokin shook his head and said with a smile: "My trip is only here to reach a preliminary intention, and after the site is determined, the specific contract details can be perfected, of course, the main reason why I came here in person is that you designated me to participate in the Black Star Gathering, this kind of big business, I really want to come to talk about it in person, and on the other hand, I also admire the deeds of His Excellency Black Star." ”

Net flattery is good, and it really doesn't look like a super A-level style...... Han Xiao said secretly.

At this time, Han Xiao's heart moved and said, "Since this is the case, then I don't have any opinion." ”

"Then I wish us a happy cooperation." Sorokin smiled.

Han Xiao didn't laugh, he changed his words, and said slowly: "By the way, I heard that the Infinite Consortium has many super A-level shareholders, some of which are ancients, such as the Weapon Nation McNison, and a super A-level ally of the empire is also your shareholder. ”

"That's right."

"It's not wrong for the Infinite Consortium to trade the position of a shareholder for resources and shelter."

“…… Yes. ”

"Hmm, you want to cooperate with me, but the verbal promise is still unstable, and the development of the Shining World will still be long in the future, if I become a shareholder of the Infinite Consortium, I will naturally fully cooperate with the Infinite Consortium...... I asked myself if the name of the Black Star is still a bit of a row in the universe, Your Excellency Sorokin, I wonder if I am qualified to get a shareholder position with my level and these chips? ”

Through the Gulal Civil War, he knew that the Infinite Consortium had an attempt to steal vegetables, and if he could break into the Infinite Consortium, he didn't know who would pry who's corner.

"This ......," Sorokin looked embarrassed.

Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and his tone sank deliberately, "Oh? Do you think I'm not qualified? ”

"Of course not." Sorokin shook his head, but he sneered in his heart.

- I'm afraid you're not qualified.

The first time you met me, you wanted to seek the position of a shareholder of the Infinite Consortium, and your appetite was really big, and it seemed that the achievements of Lighthouse Star and the Alien God made Blackstar arrogant...... Sorokin said secretly.

Thinking so in his heart, Sorokin made a helpless look on his face.

"Of course, Your Excellency Blackstar is qualified, but the consortium is so large, the shareholder position is not something I want to give, even if I want, other shareholders may not be willing, and ...... There are three cosmic-level civilizations, each with only one shareholder, and the empire already has one...... You know what I mean. ”

"Oh, I see." Han Xiao nodded, it was the three major civilizations that checked and balanced, and there were really their shadows everywhere.

This reason is very useful, and it seems that it is difficult to test something verbally.

"In that case, let's not talk about these serious things for the time being, anyway, I'm very happy to meet another super A-level today." Han Xiao stared at Sorokin, "Are you interested in following the conventions of super A-level and sparring with me?" ”

"No, I'm not good at fighting." Sorokin waved his hand and smiled.

"Haha come less, a super A-level said that he was not good at fighting, you are perfunctory to me."

"Although I'm super A-level, I don't like to use force, I haven't fought anyone for a long time, my combat skills have been abandoned, and Your Excellency's achievements have spread all over the universe, I don't think I'm an opponent, there is no need to fight."

After that, Sorokin stood up and said with a smile: "If I'm not mistaken, you still have to meet other guests later, and I'm new to the city, so I need to settle down with my subordinates, so let's get here today, and I'll come back tomorrow to visit, and we'll talk later, what do you think?" ”

"Okay." When Han Xiao heard this, he had no choice but to nod, he was a guest from afar, and he couldn't forcibly leave Sorokin behind.

Sorokin smiled, exchanged communicator numbers, and left the reception room.

After he left, Han Xiao frowned.

"This guy doesn't get in oil and salt, if he doesn't agree to fight, I have to think of another way......"

Sorokin is also a big man, people come to talk about cooperation, but he can't go up directly to scold him, the other party's attitude is not clear, and it is not good to make enemies rashly.

However, although Suo Luo Jin seemed to be very sincere, Han Xiao always felt that the other party did not really want to cooperate with him.

Thinking back to the exchange just now, Han Xiao found it difficult to see through Sorokin's personality, as if he was wearing a mask the whole time.

"I don't know what he thinks......" Han Xiao rubbed his temples and sighed helplessly.

Dealing with this kind of person is the most tiring.

……

At the same time, the Shattered Star Ring, the headquarters of the War Field.

This year's Overlord Gathering was held at the same time as the Black Star Gathering, and the various civilizations of the Shattered Star Ring did not care about one or the other, and also sent envoys to participate in the Overlord Gathering following the habits of previous years.

On the top floor of the palace in the field of war, Heber stood in front of a huge hanging window, outside which was a black-and-gray fortress on the surface and a sky full of cosmic stars, his eyes fixed on the dwellings of all the messengers.

In previous years, these envoys would take advantage of the period before the overlord's gathering to communicate and make friends with each other, but now, these envoys barely moved, and most of them stayed in their rooms, and the hall seemed deserted, like a pool of stagnant water.

Because the Black Star Gathering is more lively and there are more forces involved, the various civilizations of the Broken Star Ring regard the Black Star Gathering as the main stage for communication, and the Overlord Gathering has been reduced to a secondary occasion, and the things to be discussed can be finished on the Black Star side, and there is no need to move around each other.

Now these civilizations participate in the hegemon's gathering, more to go through the motions to save face, and there is no longer the lively pomp and circumstance of the past.

"Hmph, Blackstar."

Herber's expression tensed, his fists clenched behind his back.

At this moment, Chief Staff Officer Jord walked into the room, came behind Hebber, and whispered, "Your Excellency, the envoy of the Infinite Consortium is here, and she is waiting outside. ”

"Let her in." Herber didn't look back.

After a while, Loefel walked into the room, looked at the tall back in front of the window, and felt a sense of oppression at the first glance.

She steadied herself a little and said in a low voice, "I've seen His Excellency the Overlord." ”

She is not even a natural calamity, and she can't be as calm as her father Sorojin faced Han Xiao.

"I heard that your Infinite Consortium wants to cooperate with me?" Herber glanced back at Lofeel.

"That's right, it's about shining the world, I ......"

"If you want to invest as a consortium, you don't need to talk to me about this kind of trivial matter, so go to a cadre who specializes in business cooperation." Herber withdrew his gaze, disinterested.

Lofeel gritted his silver teeth and pulled out a letter, "Your Excellency Sorokin has instructed me to bring you a letter. ”

"Letters?" Herber frowned.

In this era, there is a convenient means of information transmission such as quantum communication, and handwritten letters are more for secrecy, and Heber is a little puzzled, he has no friendship with Sorokin, what does this mean to bring me a letter? It can't be a love letter.

Only then did Herber turn to face Lofeel, and with a stroke of strength, he grabbed the letter in his hand, opened it and looked at it, but suddenly his eyes shrank, his face became serious, and he read the contents of the letter carefully.

"That's ...... so"

With a squeeze of his hand, the letter turned into powder, and then from the scraps to atoms, and then he looked at Jord, "You go out first." ”

Joad was stunned for a moment, so he had to retire first, and closed the door by the way.

There were only two people left in the room, and a bright light flashed in Herber's eyes, and a strong force surged out, filling the entire room, isolating external detection, and then he slowly spoke:

"You want me to deal with the Black Star Legion?"

"Yes." Lofeel nodded.

"Huh, ridiculous!" Heber said coldly: "Although I have a disagreement with Black Star, but I am also an ally of the Empire, I can't do anything with him, you have found the wrong person." ”

Lofeel took a deep breath, remembered what Sorokin had taught him, and spoke in a deep voice:

"It's only been more than twenty years since the rise of the Black Star, and how many twenty years have you been in the Broken Star Ring? Black Star has come from behind, the business is thriving, and now its influence has surpassed you, Your Excellency, are you willing? ”

Herber looked indifferent, but did not refute.

"They are also allies of the Empire, but the Red Empire has always been partial to the Black Star Legion, focusing on supporting them, have you ever wondered why it is ......?"

Heber interrupted her and said slowly, "He has evolution cubes, I don't, it's as simple as that." ”

"That's right!" Lofeld's tone raised, "That's the crux of the matter! ”

"Hmph, so you want me to help you take the transformation cube?" Herber was indifferent, a taunt flashing in his eyes.

"Of course not, we just want him to lose the evolution cube, there is still a difference between the two."

"Oh? How so? ”

"It's almost impossible to snatch, Radiance and Ethereal Spirit will not act rashly, and you, as an Imperial ally, have to watch over the Black Star Legion, and will never sit idly by and watch our actions, so what we hope is that Black Star will take the initiative to hand over the Evolution Cube."

Heber almost wanted to laugh, "Give the evolution cube to outsiders? Do you think Blackstar is crazy or stupid? Hmph, I understand that bastard of Black Star, a pure profitist, wants him to voluntarily give up the treasures of the universe, unless your Infinity Consortium will go out of business tomorrow. ”

"No, I didn't say that." Lofeel paused, "But if Blackstar hands over the object of the evolution cube...... Is it the Red Empire? ”

Herber's eyes narrowed, and he became a little interested.

“…… Let's take a closer look. ”
