Chapter 160 I Want This Place
"Miss Debra?"
Debra walked silently, even General Morz, who had returned hurriedly ignored it.
"If we lost our big order, it seems that Miss Debra must have been punished by Phoebe Heavy Industry," General Morz did not get angry because Debra ignored him, but said to Ling Xiao: "Debra is actually a very capable salesperson. If Phoebe Heavy Industry fired her, Tiangong Group may consider hiring her over. She is very familiar with this star field and will become your capable assistant."
Ling Xiao replied: "If Miss Debra is willing to come to my Tiangong Group, of course I will not beg for it. I just don't know what the general is returning?"
After Ling Xiao’s reminder, General Morz quickly said his purpose: “The actions of the Federation of Commerce and Industry are far faster than we imagined. Their vanguards have entered the chaotic star domain. They have given generous conditions. As long as the warlords who survive here surrender to the Federation of Commerce, they will obtain and retain their fleet and power. Under double pressure, those cowardly warlords will definitely turn against each other in large quantities, which will be an extremely arduous war. Therefore, the Free Army decided to immediately increase the procurement of the ‘Prairie Wolf-class’ light fightership. We need 40,000 such warships, as well as supply ships, logistics ships, and maintenance ships. How many ‘Dragon-Slaying Class’ plundering ships do you have now? We want all of them.”
During the previous hot discussion, the Federation of Commerce had already improved a complete plan. Therefore, when the Federation of Commerce finally decided to use troops to the chaotic star field, it showed an incredible speed of advancement. Fleets gathered in various star fields, and quickly appeared in various places in the chaotic star field according to the long-planned jump points, surrounding the planets controlled by the warlords.
The resistance force is still in the process of organizing, but the Free Army, which lacks enough warships, retreats quickly under the pressure of the Merchant Federation fleet. In just one cocktail party, the Free Army lost up to a hundred star systems.
The Free Army urgently needs more warships. At this time, even if the Tiangong Group immediately gave them the "Prairie Wolf-level" drawings, it would be difficult for them to imitate the "Prairie Wolf-level" in the short term, so they need to find Tiangong Group to buy a large amount of money.
"No problem, my warship manufacturing factory is working hard to start construction. I believe that within two months, you will see the first batch of 'prairie wolf class'. As for other ships, give me a list of whatever you need. The Tiangong Group will definitely guarantee the supply of warships of the Free Army."
Ling Xiao’s promise made General Morz breathe a sigh of relief. As long as there is sufficient "prairie wolf class", the Free Army can organize a fleet that can withstand the attack of the Merchant Federation in a short period of time. "Thank you very much, Mr. Ling, you are worthy of being our best friend. With the warships of the Tiangong Group, our Free Army can definitely fight the Merchant Federation out."
But Ling Xiao touched his nose and said, "General, our friendship is due to friendship. How do you plan to pay for the purchase of the warships in the Free Army? The finances of the Free Army should not be enough to buy all the weapons you need."
Speaking of money, General Morz was slightly embarrassed: "Yes, the first orders have already caused tension in our finances. We don't have enough Tata coins to buy future warships. But we have planets and futures, and we can mortgage those habitable planets and rare mineral stars to the Tiangong Group. After the war is over, we will slowly redeem them with taxes and supplies."
"This is a solution. It seems that in order to get back the money in the future, our Tiangong Group has to fully support the Free Army to win this war. I like this challenge. General, I suggest having a drink for our future." Ling Xiao poured a glass of wine for General Morz, and then said, "The payment for the goods starts with the Storm Eye Cloud Group..."
General Morz didn't swallow a sip of wine and sprayed it all out: "No, the Storm Eye Clouds are an important stronghold of the Free Army, and we must not lose it."
Ling Xiao wiped the wine stains on his body and said slowly: "I think there is nothing that cannot be traded for the current situation of the Free Army. The first thing you need to guarantee is your own survival. And I need a collateral of sufficient weight, and the Storm Eye Cloud Group has this weight. The Free Army will not think that if I give me a few irrelevant planets, I can get the full support of the Tiangong Group, right? I am a businessman. In the concept of the Free Army, we are actually enemies. I need to avoid risks, so I need the Free Army to show the sincerity it should have."
General Morz also put away his expressions of everyone being good brothers and said seriously: "What's the use of Tiangong Group to make the Storm Eye Cloud Group? Do you have the ability to defend here in the attack of the Federation of Commerce? The defense here was established by me, and only I can block the invasion of the Federation of Commerce fleet."
"The warships produced and sold by Tiangong Group need a safe parking place. Storm Port is a very good warehouse. I am afraid that the Free Army does not want to hand over warships in those star fields without any security, right? As for how to defend the Storm Eye Cloud Group is not something that the general needs to worry about. I will not let myself suffer any losses before the warships complete the transaction. The Tiangong Group's fleet will be responsible for the defense of the Storm Eye Cloud Group. The Free Army only needs to hand over this cloud group and the defense system to us, and can be exchanged for 400 million "Prairie Wolf Class" as the main body, 2,000 medium-sized and heavy warships, and a fleet with complete logistics support, and deliver the goods in four months. In addition, after the Storm Eye Cloud Group handed over to the Tiangong Group, I will immediately send you twenty brand new "Star Class" fortress warships."
"This..." General Morz took a breath of the big deal of the Tiangong Group. Twenty fortress warships! The entire Free Army did not have twenty fortress ships, and they were all old masters of hundreds of years old. What are the fortress ships? They are comprehensive warships that integrate command, offense, defense, and warship manufacturing. If the Free Army had twenty fortress-level, they could stick to several important strategic locations and block the oppression of the Merchant Federation fleet and stop retreating.
However, this is a gift based on the mortgage of the Eye of the Storm Clouds. General Morz, who was the one who managed the Eye of the Storm Clouds, did not know how he should make a choice.
"Sorry, Mr. Ling. This is not something I can decide. I will pass on your proposal to the leaders of the Free Army."
Ling Xiao poured a glass of wine for General Morz: "The fortress level will arrive with the first batch of orders, so you'd better be quicker. I think the Federation of Commerce will definitely not want the Free Army to get the fortress ship."
