"Team leader, is there any news these days? Why are there more and more large transport ships gathering in ports? β
"Who knows, do you do your job, do you manage others?"
"Hehe, team leader, did you say that you made money by running ocean trade?"
"Nonsense." The team leader stretched: "Ocean trade...... If you are lucky, you can make several times the profit by running back and forth to those small countries in the southeast. β
"So much? It's a pity that with my salary, I have to go without food or drink for at least 50 years to buy a transport ship......"
The team leader gave him a blank look and said, "Do you think ocean trade is easy to do?" If you encounter pirates, don't talk about recovering the cost, be careful that you lose your life......"
The observer craned his neck, not going to talk about it again.
Suddenly, a neat set of light spots appeared on the screen, and the data showed that these light spots were rapidly approaching the spaceport.
As the other party approaches, observers will also be able to see the ships with the help of a remote observation system.
The brand-new Weilong Group's export-oriented standard warships, all pure white, are speeding towards in a neat formation. The observer thought for a moment in his mind, and it seemed that none of the companies or fleets had a pure white livery. A bright paint like this is much more reflective than a dark paint, making it easier for enemies to spot you, so few people paint a ship used in battle this color.
The observer's face changed, and he hurriedly shouted: "Team leader, there is a strange fleet heading in the direction of the spaceport, and the speed is very fast!" β
The team leader immediately ran over and glanced at the screen, then breathed a sigh of relief and slapped the observer on the head, saying, "You idiot, you don't even know this sign?" β
As he spoke, he enlarged the sign on the bow of the ship on the screen.
It was a huge silver shield, and the shield was painted with strange and mysterious patterns, and it was barely recognizable as two Ys.
"What is this?" The observer looked at his group leader with some confusion.
"Stupid, this is the newly established Tower Shield Security Company!" As he spoke, the team leader looked at the screen and exclaimed: "With such a neat formation and such a high speed, the commander of this fleet is definitely a master......
ββββββββ
The neat white fleet slowly entered the spaceport, and such a huge warfleet entered the port, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the port.
"The others don't get off the boat. Tianyuan, you follow me to the company's headquarters. β
With Xu Tianyuan, Yunyi came to the most prosperous street in the Universe Port, where the company headquarters of Tower Shield Security was located.
"Hello boss!"
"Hello boss!"
Along the way, the employees were working nervously, and only a small number of people knew the young chairman and greeted him one after another. The newcomers looked at Yun Yi in amazement, and were amazed at his youthful appearance.
Yun Yi nodded to everyone and strode into the office of Blue Sky. Lan Tian was receiving several customers, and when he saw Yun Yi's arrival, he immediately said sorry to those customers, and then came to an empty office with Yun Yi.
"Lan Tian, have you bought the kind of electronic reconnaissance ship I asked for? Also, how long will it take for the merchants to assemble and when will they be able to leave? β
Closing the door, Lan Tian looked at Yun Yi with a cold face, and said with an indifferent smile: "The electronic reconnaissance ship has been put in place, and it is being painted in the port, and the crew can be stationed in the afternoon, a total of ten, all of which are installed with electronic warfare equipment designated by the boss, totaling 7.4 million imperial gold yuan." β
"7.4 million? It was pretty much what I expected. Yun Yi nodded and said, "What about those merchants?" β
"The deadline I gave them was tomorrow, and if they didn't arrive by 24 o'clock tomorrow, they wouldn't be able to join the fleet, and they would also pay a large amount of liquidated damages to the company."
Yun Yi thought about it for a while, turned to Xu Tianyuan and said, "Tianyuan, you can go back now, according to our plan, marshalling the transport ships that have arrived, and connecting the control network on the ship to the flagship to facilitate our control." In addition, you inform Xiahou that after four o'clock in the afternoon, you will bring someone to receive the batch of electronic reconnaissance ships. β
"Yes!" Xu Tianyuan had no objection, and after receiving the order, he turned around and left.
After Xu Tianyuan left, Yun Yi casually found a chair and sat down, and said, "Now you can tell me, what exactly do you have to talk to me about?" β
Yesterday afternoon, when Yunyi was organizing the crew to board the ship, he suddenly received a communication from the blue sky, saying that there was an extremely important matter and that he had to meet with Yunyi. As a result, by the time the crew was in place, it was already past 8 o'clock in the evening. There was no way, Yun Yi had to order the fleet to set off overnight and hurried over. Because it has only been drilled twice, many people on the boat have not rested well, and there have been small problems of one kind or another on the road. Fortunately, Xu Tianyuan and Xiahou's undefeated command abilities were extremely outstanding, so no major incidents occurred, but it also made Yun Yi's mood extremely bad.
Looking at Yun Yi's stinky face, Lan Tian couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Boss, do you have a conflict with the Mahmoud family?" β
"House of Mehammad? No, I haven't dealt with them and I don't have any contradictions. β
This family, Yun Yi, has heard that like the Chen family, the FΓΌrth family and other families, they are one of the thirteen families that control the Cologne Business Alliance, and they are very powerful.
"And what about the Hyreddins, the Laceys, and the Highburys?"
"Highbury?" Yun Yi looked at the blue sky fiercely, a glint flashed in his eyes, and asked, "What are you asking these for?" β
"Boss, although the Cologne Business Alliance is ruled by thirteen families, these thirteen families can be subdivided into three interest groups. Headed by the Mehamed family, including Hayreddin, Reis, and Highbury, the five families headed by the Chen family, including FΓΌrth and Reiter, are another interest group, while the other four families go their own ways and never favor any side. The two groups are political enemies and attack each other. On the surface, the thirteen families are in harmony and work together for the country. But in reality, the two groups have long been full of contradictions in order to compete for seats in parliament. β
Blue Sky looked at Yun Yi, as if trying to see something in his eyes, but found nothing. Shaking his head, he continued: "If the boss didn't have a conflict with them, it should be because of the Chen family's financial support for us, causing the Mahmoud family to think that we belong to the Chen family......"
Yun Yi's face changed slightly: "You mean to say that the Mahmoud family has made a move against our company?" β
Lan Tian nodded, turned on the portable light brain he carried with him, and called up some data: "According to the information I received, under the establishment of the Cologne Business Alliance, the four families on the Mahmoud side were once pirates across the Southeast Universe......"
Yun Yi was slightly stunned, feeling a little incredible. The founders of a free-trade country founded on commerce were some pirates.
"There's nothing strange about that." Lan Tian shook his head and said: "In the hundreds of years since the collapse of the Galactic Empire, the Southern Universe has been in chaos, and these four families are all pirate kings. However, later, after the rise of Chu Tang and New America, many joint clean-ups were carried out for the safety of trade routes. In order to prevent the monopoly of the trade routes between the two great powers, the Pirate King joined forces with some large merchants to form this Cologne business alliance. β
Yun Yi realized this, although it felt a little incredible, but in fact, whether it was a merchant or a pirate, they were all based on interests, even if they were former enemies, they could unite for the sake of interests.
Lan Tian continued: "And the current Cologne Business Alliance, in addition to the fleets of various families, there are less than ten security companies with more than 100 warships, and the two largest of them belong to the Mahmoud family and the Hayreddin family. It is rumored that when the four pirate kings joined the Shang Alliance, they once left some of their power and still acted as pirates, and even now, the two sides are extremely close. According to my investigation, as well as the information I got from the Chen family, this has been confirmed. β
Hearing this, Yun Yi already understood what Lan Tian meant, and it seemed that these families were planning to use pirates against themselves.
Lan Tian thought that it was because of the help of the Chen family that led to the hatred of the Mahmoud family. But Yun Yi himself knew very well that such a thing must have happened because the Highbury family had discovered some clues in the Shattered Star Belt.
It has been more than four months since the Highbury family sent a fleet into the Shattered Star Belt, but they have not received any news, and I am afraid that they have already sent someone to the Republic of Ori to investigate. After receiving the news of Lianka Chenfeng, FΓΌrth, Scardo, and Chenjia had urgently prepared a fleet half a month ago, preparing to conduct a detailed exploration of N-Al0083 and carry out preliminary development. How could such a big move not be known to the Highbury family?
And his identity as a mercenary who entered N-AL0083 will definitely be known by the Highbury family, several aspects are connected, even if the Highbury family is stupid, I am afraid that they will guess that their fleet will be wiped out in the Shattered Star Belt. And as Yun Yi, who arrived at the Shang Alliance alive, coupled with the help of the Chen family, it is obvious that there is an unusual connection in it.
"Boss, according to the news from the inside of the Chen family's pirates, some pirates have begun to unite, and the number is extremely large, and the target is very likely to be our fleet."
For a while, Yun Yi had a headache, but he didn't expect that his career had just started and he would encounter such a serious problem.
Looking at the blue sky around him, Yun Yi thought for a moment, and still intended to believe in this young business genius.
"Blue Sky, I want to tell you something, it's about the Highbury family, maybe it will help this time......"
