Chapter 212: The inner part of corruption
210. The inner part of corruption
It’s done! ! Plagueis is going to build this battleship! Tang Xiao was overjoyed. He didn't hide his emotions and laughed out loud, but what he said was, "The Malsayel! How can I have such a supreme honor?! Hahaha!"
Immediately, as if he knew that he had lost his temper, he quickly lowered his head, "I'm sorry, Lord... I really didn't expect that you would name this super battleship after me!"
"This battleship It is large enough, but not that rare. However, because the data is very complete, it is still necessary to prepare for construction. The technology is very different from ours now, and scientists need to break through the barriers." Darth Plagueis also saw that the technology system of this Titan battleship was completely different from that of the Galactic Republic and even the Sith Empire.
This further confirmed his inner thoughts, either the Kiliks or the Infinite Empire! These super empires that existed more than 35,000 years ago or even longer ago were the most likely to design such warships. He was even somewhat proud of his accurate judgment.
As for how Garulan got this thing, Plagueis didn't care anymore. The Black Sun's tentacles are almost all over the galaxy. There are too many possibilities for them to get this thing. A bounty hunter who accidentally enters the ruins, a commercial spy from one of Corellia's ruin excavation companies, or the underground black market or something... …
In this case, it would be really suspicious if Tang Xiao told him the origin of this battleship. It is most normal not to know something.
Taking one last look at the battleship's data, Darth Plagueis nodded with satisfaction and put the memory away solemnly, "It is indeed a wise choice for you to hand over this data to me. Now. Our layout in the galaxy has not been completed yet, and you do not have the ability to start construction under the eyes of the Republic."
"Do you want to build it now?" Tang Xiao asked.
"I need a large team and a long time to complete this project. This is also a great improvement to the shipbuilding technology we have mastered. You know, the most advanced spacecraft construction technology in the galaxy is now concentrated in Kuat Dynamics In the hands of the three companies: Shipyard, Rendili Interstellar Power Company and Corellian Interstellar Engineering Company... I would certainly be happy to dig a piece of their market," Darth Plagueis smiled coldly. "Don't worry about this matter. Just come here today and I will continue to teach you how to use your anger to control the force."
He kicked Tang Xiao out of Building Titan without hesitation Outside of the battleship project.
……
The core area of the Milky Way, the capital of the Republic, the planet Coruscant.
In a mansion on the surface of the planet, a private dinner is being held. Clair Underwood, wearing a red dress, holding a glass of red wine, walked among many high-ranking officials and ladies, chatting and laughing.
She came to a paunchy Samirsi man, personally picked up a glass of champagne from the waiter and handed it over, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Tula, this dress is indeed worthy of your unique temperament. You are really good today." It’s so beautiful. This is the silk spun by a creature called ‘silkworm’ on the Dawn Planet. It is a completely natural product.”
Tunbach-Tula, a member of the Planet Semiers, laughed. She stood up and said, "I like this dress so much. I didn't expect that there is such a creature. I always thought that the ice spider silk from the planet Kress was the most suitable material for clothes."
"Ice The production of spider silk is affected by the season, but a person with a high status like you should have a different dress every day," Claire said with a smile. "Oh Claire, my friend, you are so good, so good..." Thunback-Tula smiled extremely helpfully.
On the other side, Francis Underwood was talking about something more practical. At this moment, he was meeting with Senator Orn Free-Tower from the planet Rynos. Whispers on the side.
"...If the bill next week is to be rejected, you still need to convince 21 more members, your Excellency. So if nothing is done, this education bill will be passed." Francis said.
"Hahaha, you must have a way, right? Mr. Francis." Orn Free-Tower shook his fat body and hugged his Twi'lek as he spoke. Human mistress.
“Valorum is just trying to push this education bill as a test before the proposal to tax the Outer Rim Star Region is formally proposed, so no one will strongly oppose it at this time, because the real drama is still to come. "Francis said lightly, "But those corporate giants have been a little aggressive recently, and this is the real threat."
Congressman Ta patted Francis on the shoulder, "This education bill. It will increase the financial expenditure of our planet by 5% every year, and most of it will flow into the treasury of the Republic. What is education used for? I might as well plant more spice fields with this money, don’t worry, Mr. Francis, if If we can prevent this motion from being passed, I and our members of the environmental faction will support Dawn Planet in the future. You know what I’m talking about.”
Francis took a sip of wine and said. : "Dawn Planet doesn't care about the seats in the parliament now. Under the rule of Speaker Fenis Valorum, this is nothing to talk about."
"Hmph! Valorum has been busy for a few days! Although those corporate giants are not good things, his series of actions have offended both the outer planets and the corporate giants at the same time!" Orn Foley - Ta drank the wine in the glass and said harshly.
A smile appeared on the corner of Francis's mouth, he leaned over and whispered: "But, I can indeed get 21 veto votes for you."
"Oh, Mr. Francis, please stop being so secretive. I know you are popular with many congressmen, so I came to see you.”
"The so-called eating well is just mutual benefit. Planet Dawn has a certain industrial system, and we are naturally willing to help those relatively backward planets improve their industrial strength. But..." Francis suddenly spoke Suddenly, "...I think Deputy Speaker Botan is not young anymore, and he should retire."
Congressman Ta's face changed, "Although Deputy Speaker Botan has been criticized recently, but After all, he is highly respected, and it would be very difficult for him to retire..."
"So, this requires your strength, Congressman. The members of the environmental faction will definitely be happy to see this. All they need is a leader." Francis said with a smile.
