250. Failed Summit (Part 2)

“In that case, for the safety of our fleet, our Trade Alliance has not been effectively protected. Under such circumstances, we will refuse to go to any planet that we deem to be risky," the representative of the Trade Federation said with a sneer.

"This is impossible! If this is the case, what will happen to our planet? How will the food we import be transported?" Onaconda Fall, the member of the Rodia planet, jumped up at once.

"That's right, then you ask the Speaker." The representative of the Trade Alliance glanced at Congressman Farr as if he were a despicable bug.

"I emphasize again that this is absolutely no reason for you to trample on the Rusan Agreement! The warships built under the existing treaty are completely sufficient for escort!" Finis Valoran said.

“I don’t think so. After all, the performance of the mercenaries called by the Republic in Marastal was not good at all. After seeing the advertisement of the Fourth Group, our corporate alliance ordered 5 ships. Revenge-class destroyer," the Governor of the Enterprise Alliance, Parcell Argent, said in a strange tone.

Finis Valoran obviously hadn't figured out what the Fourth Group's advertisement was about. At this time, his assistant whispered a few words to him, and his face suddenly turned livid!

He usually focuses on government affairs, but he doesn’t even know that a company called the Fourth Group is advertising with actual combat videos of the Battle of Marastal Fjord! The advertisements are all full of pictures of the Fourth Group's superior battleships beating up the Republic's spaceships!

The blood and sacrifices of the Republic’s soldiers were actually used by these businessmen for advertising! !

With a bang, Valoran punched the podium, but couldn't say a word. The dispute in Marastal was indeed fought by the Republic's local defense fleet in the name of mercenaries, which he absolutely could not admit. And you said it’s okay if you win the battle, but the Republic’s fleet fought extremely ugly in the Battle of Marastal Fjord. If the Jedi hadn’t taken action, even their flagship, the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser, would have been sunk. !

If that's the case, it's really a joke.

Over there, Parcell Argent was still unreasonable and continued to mock: "So, now even mercenaries can own the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser, which is a 600-meter large battleship. Ah! Mr. Speaker, how can you say that the 200-meter warships stipulated in the Rusan Agreement can protect our routes?"

When he said these words, the military representative of the Judiciary Fleet looked at him. Watch your mind and just pretend you don’t hear it.

Ford Tonys, the representative of the Interstellar Banking Association, said lightly: "Furthermore, conducting an economic census in the outer ring star region will require a lot of manpower and material resources. Even if taxes are started by then, this will inevitably cause these problems. Financial pressure on the planet, will these planets agree?”

"The Republic's Judicial Fleet will ensure the safety of the Outer Rim Star Region." Finis Valorum's tone became colder. He glanced at the representative of the Judicial Fleet, but the other party still made no statement.

"I think even now, the Judiciary Fleet cannot guarantee the safety of the outer ring star region." Ford-Tonis had said it very euphemistically, but the meaning was basically in place.

It was almost like another slap in the face to Valoran.

"Asshole!! It's not your turn to say what happened to the Republic's Judiciary Fleet!!" A majestic-looking old man in a general's uniform jumped up and pointed at Ford's nose and scolded him.

He is from the Stark Veterans Association. This is an association of veterans because a small war broke out in 44BBY more than ten years ago, known as the Stark Hyperspace War. This is also the largest war that the Galactic Republic has experienced in recent years, so many fighting heroes were born in this war.

When these people retired from the army, veterans associations came into being. There are also many military families and many fighting heroes, and their military and political influence is considerable. And to a large extent, they also represent what the military means.

Seeing that the military had said this, Ford-Tonis borrowed the donkey from the slope and smiled politely and sat down again.

At this time, someone finally stood up and spoke for Finis Valorum. Congressman Sheev Palpatine stood up, smiled humbly, and said, "I hope everyone will calm down, especially you, Parcell Argent, this is not a good look, you know. "His words seemed to have magic power, and the noisy venue actually became much quieter. Parcell Argent also sat back in his seat, no longer sarcastic.

Palpatine continued: "I think, no matter how many reasons you have, the agreement of the Ruusan Conference does exist, and it is the progress of the Galactic Republic in the last thousand years. direction. Maybe this agreement seems a bit outdated now, but objectively speaking, violating this agreement is a violation of the Constitution of the Republic. Do you really want to bear the consequences?"

Then he looked at the representatives of the Trade Alliance and asked calmly: "And your Trade Alliance, you would rather let your billions of employees lie around and get paid for nothing every day, and you would also stop those commercial routes, but To get angry with the Republic?”

The representative of the Trade Federation muttered something in Neimoidian dialect and sat down.

"The Fourth Group should withdraw all advertisements immediately. You should know what I am talking about." Palpatine looked in the direction of Gross-Shelbia and continued.

Gross Shelbia kept Tang Xiao's instructions in mind and saw that the representative of the Trade Alliance did not continue to make trouble, so she did not say more. She just stood up and said to Parr Patin bowed deeply and expressed his attitude.

Although she was criticized in person, Gross was not depressed at all. On the contrary, she was a little excited.

You must know that this is a business summit, the highest-level event in the galaxy! In such a venue, even if you are scolded in front of you, it is still a good thing!

At least you showed your face.

Look, the entire galaxy now knows that there is a company that dares to advertise directly with a video of a violent attack on the Galactic Republic fleet. This is better than 1 billion yuan in advertising fees.

The meeting on the first day finally broke up unhappy, and many representatives returned to their respective mansions to rest. Naturally, there are countless undercurrents surging underground, including those who communicate secretly, inquire about information, and collude with gangs.

Everyone felt that the meeting on the second day was when the conflicts in all aspects completely exploded. Some participants even started doing tongue massages overnight, preparing to put their sharp tongue to good use at tomorrow's meeting, regardless of whether they were qualified to speak.

However, on the second day, when all the representatives gathered again to prepare for the meeting, it really exploded! !

Boom! ! ! A violent explosion lifted off the last fig leaf of the Galactic Republic!
