Chapter 96 Chapter 8 Ape-man Trading

Tang Long, who had been in the game cabin for several days and was addicted to his master, finally got tired of playing and came out to rest. Tang Long, who had just raised his head and stretched his waist, immediately noticed that there were many spaceships, large and small, busy landing and taking off in the sky.He couldn't help but muttered strangely: "What kind of place is this place in us?" When did it get so busy? " The soldier next to Tang Long probably came out to catch his breath. Hearing Tang Long's words, he couldn't help but look around, and found that he was the only one standing beside Tang Long, so he hurriedly said respectfully

Said: "My lord, those spaceships are all suppliers of the lords of the fiefs." "Supplier?" Tang Long was even more confused. "Yes, since the Tang family is not responsible for the supplies and rations of the warships of the lords, the lords have to find the merchants who supply these materials by themselves. At that time, the command tower of Zhongzhou Star was the busiest time. "The soldier hurriedly told Tang Long what he knew. Just as Tang Long let out a cry, Li Wu, who was accompanied by several guards, appeared in front of Tang Long: "My lord, the command tower came to ask if you ordered two warships and forty transport ships."

, if yes, I want you to receive it quickly. " As Tang Long walked, he asked, "Can't we just drive in?" "The command tower said that you need to register before allowing those spaceships to come in." Li Wu hurriedly replied. "Hey, it's really troublesome." Tang Long said so, but he still boarded the landing craft. Although he found it troublesome, he also admired the dedicated personnel on the command tower. Donovan, who had received the report earlier, together with his two sons, quietly looked at the three-dimensional image in front of them. The image showed two giant battleships with full-body gun barrels, and forty ships looked at

I knew it was a high-class transport ship with high-quality goods. After a while, Donovan sighed and said, "Tell me, how much do these two warships and forty transport ships cost?" Tang Hainan quickly calculated in his mind, and said firstly: "That kind of warship costs about 20 to 30 billion, and that kind of transport ship costs at least a billion or more." "Well, that is to say, these alone cost nearly a billion Wulai coins. I don't know if you have thought about why Tang Long, a guy from the Wanluo Federation, has so much net worth. ?And I asked our suppliers, they don't have this kind of warship full of guns, so where did Tang Long buy it from? "Speaking of this, Donovan looked at

He glanced at his two sons. Tang Haidong saw Tang Hainan who had always had a crush on Tang Long, his face was so ugly that he couldn't speak, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Father, Tang Long's net worth is far more than a hundred billion." Both Tang Nawen and Tang Hainan turned their gazes to Tang Haidong, and Tang Nawen asked with interest, "Do you know his details?" Tang Haidong nodded triumphantly and said, "Yes, father. In order to investigate Tang Long's details, I made a special trip to the Wanluo Federation. I didn't expect Tang Long to be very famous in the Wanluo Federation. He

Not only forced a general of the Wanluo Federation to become independent, but also shot and killed hundreds of officers without any scruples. " Donovan nodded and said: "I know all of this, so I am not surprised that he executed those retainers. A bloodthirsty person like him, once he catches the mistakes of his subordinates, he is willing to I will definitely not let it go. "As he spoke, he glanced at Tang Hainan thoughtfully. Tang Hainan blushed and lowered his head without saying a word.The reason is that after Tang Long executed those retainers, he pleaded with his father for him, but his father didn't respond at that time, even

He didn't even bother to ask, and only said that Tang Long was exercising his power as the master.Only now did I realize that my father already knew what kind of person Tang Long was. Tang Haidong was stunned for a moment, it turned out that his father knew everything!Thinking of this, he hurriedly restrained his complacent expression, and said respectfully: "Tang Long's net worth is probably in the trillions of Wulai coins. And he was able to have so much money mainly because he led the army to plunder the wealth of one of the wealthiest gangsters in the Wanluo Federation at that time.At that time, the planet was made like a battlefield. "

"Leading the army to steal money from gangsters? He is really daring." Tang Hainan muttered in surprise. Donovan nodded with a smile, and said, "Tang Long's source of income has been clarified, so do you know where to buy that kind of warship?" Tang Haidong didn't wait for his younger brother to open his mouth and immediately said: "You can go to Tang Long's supplier. Since Tang Long can buy it from the merchant, then we should be able to buy it from that merchant too." . " Tang Hainan, who kept rolling his eyes, suddenly said: "Father, if Tang Long has so much money, if he spends all of it on buying warships, he can buy dozens of them, and his strength will be greatly improved."

If it surpasses us, it may be detrimental to our family! " Tang Haidong first wondered why Tang Hainan started to suppress Tang Long. Didn't he still support Tang Long before?However, he quickly realized that Tang Hainan's personality was obsessed with cleanliness, and he must be greedy and murderous towards Tang Long. Disgusted by his behavior, he turned to suppress Tang Long. After analyzing these, Tang Haidong couldn't help thinking to himself: "Hehe, brother, you are still too young. Only people who are greedy for money and bloodthirsty are easy to control. You don't support Tang Long, but brother, I do.

! " Thinking of this, Tang Haidong immediately said: "Brother, you haven't thought about it clearly. Is Tang Long rich, or is our family rich? Tang Long is not only responsible for the expenditure of the territory, but also maintains the army. Equipment, plus the tax in his territory is so little, it is not enough to cover the people, and the money is used a little less. "And we have taxes from the territories directly under us and 50% of the taxes from other territories. It can be said that the source of income is continuous. The monthly taxes alone can buy several warships of that kind. In the end

The important point is, do you think it is so easy for civilians to become soldiers?Is it so easy to train soldiers to become warships?Even if Tang Long, who had only tens of thousands of soldiers, bought dozens of ships, There is no one to drive the battleship, and the immobile battleship is just a pile of scrap iron. Are you too worried? " "You..." This time it was Tang Hainan's turn to be speechless.Tang Haidong smiled triumphantly, and turned away from looking at him. "Okay, let's go to Tang Long now, and hope to buy this kind of warship in front of Caesar's house." Donovan stood up and patted the shoulders of his two sons and said. "Yes, father." Tang Haidong and Tang Hainan hurriedly bowed and said. The coast of Tang Long's territory was surrounded by countless people at this moment, and the soldiers who got the order earlier than the people had already built a human wall between the crowd and the sea. As for the speedboats of the maritime patrol team, they patrolled back and forth on the sea surface with waves. There is no other reason why this area is so lively, all because Tang Long forcibly landed three warships including the Meteorite and the forty transport ships directly near the territory in order to show off On the sea, they are neatly arranged for the public to watch. Of course, it is also to let those selected battleship soldiers get on board and get familiar with the battleship. From time to time, the people cheered because they saw their relatives among the soldiers queuing up to board the battleship.And those soldiers who were responsible for the human wall, although They were silent, but from their fiery eyes, one could tell how much they envied those brothers who became battleship soldiers. "Wow, this is the lord's battleship? It's so magnificent, I want to be the lord's soldier too." The one at the front, poking its head out from the gap in the wall of soldiers, stared at the moored ship on the sea. A boy on these battleships said so to his father. The child's father patted his son's head and said with a smile: "Okay, but it's best to become the lord's retainer, so that you can honor your ancestors." A magnificent battleship. "Look! My brother is also on the battleship!" A little girl happily pointed at a soldier in the distance and shouted. Her cry made everyone around her shoot jealous and envious eyes at her. body. "I didn't expect the lord to have three such warships. I heard that each battleship has 3,000 cannons. Doesn't the lord have 9,000 cannons? Compared with other lords' battleships, the cannons are more powerful." There are many more. " an old man sighed to the old buddy beside him. The old man's old man continued in an expert tone: "What is this? Didn't you see the spaceship behind the battleship? It's called a transport ship. Do you understand transport ships? They are used to The spaceships for supplies and the transport ships of the entire planet are not as many as the lords. "With these transport ships, the lord's warships can stay in space for a long time, and they can replenish ammunition at any time during the war. There is no need to worry about running out of ammunition. Been fighting for a long time. " Standing in the command cabin of Meteorite, Chen Kang and Tang Long quietly watched the bustling crowd outside the window. After a while, Chen Kang smiled at Tang Long and said, "Your people are full of curiosity. No one from other places will come to see this excitement." Tang Long handed Chen Kang a glass of wine, while he grabbed a carton of milk and sucked it up. Chen Kang had learned from the information that Tang Long didn't like alcohol, but milk and fruit juice, so he didn't make any fuss. Tang Long took a sip of milk and sighed: "It's no wonder they are curious. Most of these people have never been out in space to see it in their lives. I believe it is the first time to watch it at such a close distance." Look at the battleship. " Chen Kangpin took a sip of his wine and said with a smile: "It's not surprising, although entering space is as simple as going out to a restaurant for us, it is very difficult for many people. Because there are many people who can't even eat enough, let alone go out to eat in restaurants. " Sensing Chen Kang's strange tone, Tang Long couldn't help but glanced at Chen Kang and asked, "Huh? Your tone seems to be very touching. What do you think of?" Chen Kang shook his head and smiled wryly: "I didn't expect anything, is there still wine?" He raised the empty wine glass to Tang Long. Tang Long nodded, and handed Chen Kang a bottle of fine wine from his inventory in the commander's room, which was also sent by Chen Kang. After taking it, Chen Kang poured himself a cup, tasted it carefully, and then continued: "I'm just wondering why civilization has advanced so far and supplies are so abundant. There is no need to worry about energy crisis and economic crisis in this era, but there will still be distinctions between rich and poor, high and low, power struggles, and countless wars will break out? " After thinking for a while, Tang Long smiled and said, "I think this should be attributed to the inherent ambition of human beings to stand on top of their own kind." "Huh? The ambitious nature of standing on top of the same kind?" Chen Kang asked puzzled. Tang Long said with a smile: "Hehe, that's right, it is because of the ambition to live better than other people and surpass others that human beings desperately increase wealth and use various means Segments to improve their status.At the same time, in order to show how different they are, they created a hierarchy. "That is to say, because of the ambition to control and command the same kind, there are countries, and because of the existence of countries, wars occur. "However, isn't this great? If human beings have no ambition at all, and everyone goes to sleep after eating, we humans will lose their aggressiveness, and sooner or later we will be killed by others. Evolved organisms instead. " After pondering for a while, Chen Kang nodded and smiled, "That's right, ambition is the driving force of human evolution. Without such a thing, we will be replaced by ape-like people sooner or later." "Ape-like man? Hehe, big brother, although I've heard of the existence of ape-like man long ago, I haven't seen it. Tell me about it so that I can learn more about it. Come, let me pour you some wine." The curious Tang Long began to curry favor with Chen Kanglai. Chen Kang looked at Tang Long who was full of longing, smiled and said: "I believe you also know that all civilizations in our current universe have similar evolutionary processes, so The main body of our universe—human beings, have the same body composition. " Tang Long nodded fiercely on the surface, but his lips curled up in his heart, because elementary school students knew what Chen Kang said. After taking a sip of wine, Chen Kang continued: "However, the evolution process of life in some galaxies is relatively slow. We have already entered the era of the big universe, and they are still in the stone age. Oh, it should be It means that there are various ages in this universe at the same time. " "Yeah? All kinds of eras, so to speak, are there still planets in the Stone Age that used stones as tools?" Tang Long said excitedly. He began to imagine that those primitive humans who used stones , If you see your own battleship, what kind of expression will you have? "Hehe, of course it is impossible for these eras to exist now." Seeing Tang Long's puzzled expression, Chen Kang couldn't help laughing and said, "Hey, let me tell you carefully." After thinking for a while, Chen Kang began to say: "Before the first space war, our countries that have entered the era of the big universe had these planets inhabited by primitive humans. . "People at that time believed that only through their own efforts to evolve could they produce a glorious civilization with connotations, because human beings at that time came through step by step in this way. "Because this is a common perception throughout the universe, all countries at that time formulated laws not to interfere with the progress of these planets. "However, when the first space war broke out, in order to build important strongholds and strengthen the economic strength of the star field, the dictatorship first forcibly intervened in these primitive peoples. Planets inhabited by human beings, and in an instant, these primitive planets were built into planets of the same scale as modern planets. "Although the actions of these countries have caused protests from all over the universe, with the expansion of the space war, no one is in the mood to pay attention to these things, and even more and more countries have begun to interfere with these principles. Start planet progress.Because in the era of total war, the resources of one more planet equals more strength. " After taking a break, Chen Kang continued: "On these primitive planets, the political systems that we think are outdated are still their advanced political systems. Let them enter the universe at that time. In order to ensure the stability of these planets, and considering that they entered the cosmic era entirely due to external interference, it is impossible for them to get used to the new political system. It also allows these primitive planets to continue to exercise their familiar political systems. "Hehe, to say that, it's actually because they are in wartime, and those countries don't have time to help them establish a new political system, so they let it go. "However, no matter what the reason, the original political systems of these primitive planets have been preserved anyway, which is why there are still so many political systems in the universe today for the sake. " Tang Long suddenly realized: "Oh, dare to say that this Wuchao galaxy used to be a primitive planet?" Chen Kang shook his head and smiled: "No, in the era of the cosmic war, the Wuchao galaxy was just an uninhabited barren land. Most of the forces here were during the cosmic war. The original planetary forces of the countries that lost the war fled and formed. "That is to say, there are no native inhabitants in the chaotic galaxy at all, and the current residents are all descendants of those fleeing primitive humans. "At that time, they didn't want to survive in this barren land, and wanted to go through the meteorite belt to find new galaxies. But at that time, the Wanluo Federation and the Silver Eagle Empire were fighting to the death, so they were killed by both Fang's strength was so frightened that he didn't dare to walk around, so he could only stay and develop in this chaotic galaxy. "It can be said that these planets in the chaotic galaxy are slowly transformed by their ancestors, and this is why there is a spectacle of the universe: there are tens of thousands of planets in a galaxy. Political star. " "No wonder these people are so stupid and loyal. It turns out that they are all descendants of primitive humans." Tang Long, who finally understood the composition of Wuchao galaxy, patted his head suddenly, but he suddenly As if remembering something, he asked, "Yeah? They look similar to us, they don't look like ape-men at all." After taking a sip of wine, Chen Kang smiled and said: "Hehe, the primitive humans mentioned just now refer to their primitive civilization, not their primitive race. Ape-like humans have no language at all. , living in the Stone Age, ape-man who has not evolved into a human at all.But because they have been able to use simple tools and can walk upright, they are called ape-like people. " Speaking of this, Chen Kang sighed and said: "These ape-like people were the ones who suffered the worst in the primitive planet during the space war. "Because they can't speak, they are furry, they are extremely strong, and they can also carry out some commands under instruction, so these ape-like people are used as tools and pets, not protected by law.Even some businessmen have developed a game of fighting apes, which is very popular because of its real blood. " "Playing ape-man games?" Tang Long asked blankly. After Chen Kang took a sip of his wine, he said in a heavy tone: "The game players wear mechas, hold laser knives, run to a planet full of apes, and fight with those who only have sticks and stones as weapons. of apes fighting.At the same time, for the sake of safety, there will be warships following the players in the sky, and they will be rescued immediately if they are in danger. "Because it is safe and fun, many people are willing to pay a lot of money to play this game." "Fun?" Tang Long couldn't help feeling chills at the word. Just imagining the scene of people with advanced equipment killing those ape-men who were fighting for their lives just for fun, he felt It's disgusting, but you still say it's fun? Tang Long stared at Chen Kang and asked coldly, "Have you ever played?" Chen Kang shook his head: "No, I know this, it's just because a guest mentioned it when he showed off to me." Tang Long's face calmed down, but he continued to ask as if he suddenly remembered something: "You said your guest told you, does this kind of game still exist now? Is there no one to resist?" Make this kind of thing?After all, apes are also of the same race as humans. " Chen Kang snorted coldly with disdain: "Resist? On the surface, this kind of torture and killing of ape-men is illegal, but in private, many rich people buy ape-men for playing games, or train them as watchdogs. "Just like the United States of Wulai, which claims to be the most civilized country in the universe and the most powerful country in the universe, it is also clearly stipulated that it is illegal to abuse apes, but there are still countless underground apes fighting arenas, and The largest Star of the Apes game exists.These laws cannot be stopped at all. Who told Wulai United States that there are so many boring rich people. " "Hmph!" Tang Long snorted coldly, sucking the milk in his hand without saying a word. Chen Kang, who wanted to change the atmosphere, asked with a smile, "By the way, what are your future plans? Is it to unify this chaotic galaxy?" After chatting with Tang Long for a long time, Chen Kang unconsciously forgot to use honorifics to Tang Long. "Of course, otherwise, what am I doing here?" Tang Long nodded and said. "What about after the unification of the chaotic galaxy?" Chen Kang didn't expect Tang Long to act according to the general manager's plan, so he couldn't help asking impatiently. He really wanted to know whether Tang Long's next step would be to destroy Wan Luo. Federation and Silver Eagle Empire. Of course, although Chen Kang was impatient, he still pretended not to care and drank the wine. "Unified universe." Tang Long calmly said words that were enough to make Chen Kang spit out the wine from his mouth. "Cough, cough." Chen Kang didn't spray alcohol, but was choked. Chen Kang, who had recovered to normal after a while, stared at Tang Long who felt good about himself, and shouted in a very surprised tone: "Unify the universe? Do you know how difficult it is to unify the universe?" something?You know that this matter is so difficult that even you can be proud that your country is the president of the United States of Wulai, the most powerful country in the entire universe, and you are so arrogant that you can imagine how to ravage The emperor of the Dark Night Empire, the second most powerful country in the entire universe, and... uh... Did you know that the leaders of these two strongest countries dare not say these words?As for other countries The leader doesn't need to be said at all. " The original meaning of the sentence that Chen Kang cut off suddenly was that he wanted to say that even the organization he belonged to, which claims to secretly control the operation of the universe, dare not say that, how dare you say such a big What about? Although Chen Kang's organization is very powerful, covering almost the entire universe, there are still some places that they cannot penetrate, and they still have many competitors, so it is fundamental Don't dare to put forward the slogan of unifying the universe. Tang Long pouted and said, "Didn't you want me to talk about my goal? I said there's nothing wrong with unifying the universe. It's just a goal." "Oh, it's just a goal. It's a good goal. After knowing that my goal is lofty, I will definitely work hard to achieve it." Chen Kang hurriedly responded. He suddenly changed his tone because he thought that Tang Long's goal was to unify the universe, so he would try his best to expand his power so that the general manager could be far away. Set aside other competitors and become a member of the board. In fact, Tang Long is also very pitiful, because once he completes the task, he will be eliminated immediately. If this is the case, why should I stop him?Let him be happy to implement his goals Just do it. "By the way, do you want to unify the universe for the sake of eternal peace?" Chen Kang asked curiously.According to his understanding, Tang Long should not have such a great ideal, right? "As I said just now, as long as human beings have ambitions, war will not disappear. But we should not think that war is bad or evil. In fact, a country is like a person, and war is like a person." Like a medical operation. If war breaks out between two countries, it means that the country is already sick and needs war for healing.After the war, that is, after the operation, the country will recover Be healthy, or die. "Tang Long laughed. Chen Kang looked at Tang Long in shock. He didn't expect Tang Long to have such feelings. What made that boy who likes to fight, show off, sing and dance like this? What about? After pondering for a while, Chen Kang asked again: "Then why do you want to unify the universe?" Now he really wants to know why Tang Long wants to unify the universe of. "What reason?" Tang Long frowned and said excitedly after thinking for a while: "Oh, that's Grand Marshal Tang Long who unified the universe, listen, how prestigious this name is, this reason Not bad right? "As he said, he squinted his eyes and muttered there, not knowing what to say. Chen Kang, who was about to fall to the ground, looked at Tang Long dumbfounded. "Is it for this reason? Impossible! According to his understanding of the relationship between war and the country just now, it is impossible for him to stand up for such a reason not to unify the universe." Target! " Thinking of these, Chen Kang began to think about Tang Long's real reason in silence. When Chen Kang was immersed in his own thoughts, Tang Long, who did not know when he would return to normal, suddenly asked: "Chen Kang, do you think those ape-men know how to farm and fish?" Chen Kang, who was thinking about it, said without thinking: "Although the brains of the apes are not as developed as ours, after training, they can even be asked to fly spaceships, let alone farming and fishing. that's it. " "Then how much do these ape-men cost?" Tang Long gritted his teeth and continued to ask, and Chen Kang responded directly: "Oh, that's very cheap. Soldiers ape-man who have been trained in the military, One thousand Wulai coins for each, and two hundred Wulai coins for those who have not received military training but have basic labor skills. " Speaking of this, Chen Kang, whose thoughts were interrupted, couldn't help but smile wryly, because many rich people like to spend tens of billions to buy millions of ape-men to go back and play. However, Chen Kang soon realized that it was Tang Long who asked this question, and he couldn't help but raised his head in surprise and asked what Tang Long wanted to do, but only after he said: "You want..." He couldn't continue because Tang Long grabbed him by the collar. Tang Long shouted viciously: "How do you know so clearly? Could it be that you are also in the business of selling ape-men?!" Chen Kang, who didn't dare to look into Tang Long's eyes, said with a wry smile: "The company I belong to has such a business, it's not my private company, I'm just an employee of the company, and I can't make any decisions at all. fixed. " Hearing this, Tang Long looked at Chen Kang's eyes for a long time, then let go of his hand and said, "I want one million apes who have received military training, and ten million who have not received military training." Chen Kang, who was rubbing his neck, heard this, and immediately shouted in surprise: "Why do you want so many apes who have not received military training? They are usually used in the early development of barren planets." It's for work, nothing else. "And you have to know that the appetite of an ape-man is five times that of an ordinary person. So many ape-men need at least 500 high-power food-making machines to produce the food that so many ape-men need Energy is an astronomical sum! " "Don't worry about what I'm here for, anyway, you just need to transport the ape-man I need to Zhongzhou Star. Oh, yes, I need 500 high-power food making machines. How much do you say, I will assign it to you now. Tang Long, who was too lazy to explain, took out his universe bank card and said. His military card was replaced at the bank the last time he bought robot materials on Ode Star. Chen Kang looked at Tang Long speechlessly. He already knew that Tang Long had pity on those ape-men who were treated as playthings, so he suddenly made this decision. Looking at Tang Long who was waiting for his answer, Chen Kang really wanted to say to Tang Long, "But you are only one person, no matter how rich you are, you can only help a small number of ape-men, and there are countless ape-men. I still live a life of being treated as cannon fodder, prey and toys", but it's a pity that the role I played made me only think about these words in my mind. It seems that if you want to save the ape-men in the whole universe, you can only unify the universe as Tang Long said just now, and it is only possible for people like Tang Long to unify the universe to save them, because other The leader is likely to be a fan of playing ape games. Seeing Tang Long's firm gaze, Chen Kang could only sigh helplessly and said, "Just give 10 billion, and your shipping fee will be free." "Hehe, thank you." Tang Long hurriedly transferred the money to Chen Kang, because Tang Long knew that the 500 high-power food making machines alone cost more than this price. Chen Kang suddenly remembered something and reminded: "Your territory is so small, can it accommodate so many people? And will the Tang family allow you to have so many powerful ape-men?" Tang Long smiled and said: "Hehe, the territory is small now, but it won't be long before my territory will expand. As for the Tang family, the family rules of his Tang family are not stipulated, the territory is controlled by the leader. Does the Lord develop independently?In this case, what's wrong with increasing the population of my territory? " After thinking for a while, Chen Kang hinted: "Let me help you replace the one million soldier ape-man with a battleship soldier ape-man, so that as soon as the ape-man arrives, you can immediately increase the number of battleships. Then you The warships he owns will be more than all the Tang family's warships combined. " Of course Tang Long understood what Chen Kang meant, so he hurriedly nodded and agreed. The two guys who had just looked at each other and smiled were taken aback by a communication: "My lord, the master is here, and he wants to see you and your supplier." After Tang Long took a look at Chen Kang, he scratched his head and said, "Well, what is this patriarch doing here? He won't make up my mind, will he? Really, I can't see him." Then he walked out. Chen Kang, who was closely behind Tang Long, said with a smile: "Hehe, I must not be able to buy this kind of warship from other places, so I came to your supplier to see if I can buy a warship." Soon, the two walked out of the meteorite one after the other.
