Chapter 427 Concentrated Is the Essence

It took Tang Fang a long time to break free from his embrace, and he forced a smile: "Brother Corey, you are so kind." This fat man sat on the desk all day, and he played all day long. It's about business, but it's a lot of strength. I think it's a lot of exercise, and I don't know if it's because I'm afraid of dying too early and not being able to enjoy life, or if I use it to deal with those wolves and tigers at home and outside, who are bent on killing him. Drained woman.

After all, he is the manager of a large company. Corey Christian is impeccable in details. Hearing this, he shook his head, kindly grabbed Tang Fang's hand, let him sit on the sofa inside, and then greeted Aros , Tang Lin, and Howson took their seats, and finally sat down next to Tang Fang, sighing: "When I heard that there was Mr. Tang at the front desk, I guessed it was you, but... you also know how to do business, there is always something wrong." I'm sorry that I couldn't come downstairs to greet you at a convenient time."

Good guy, this mouth is so sweet, it's almost like honey! Not to mention that he didn't take this matter to heart, even if he was really small-minded enough to be dissatisfied with it, he might be wiped out by Corey Christian's confession. It really has been in the business world for many years The old fox is impeccable in his conduct.

This can be seen from White David. The assistants are so capable, where can the master send them?

The so-called "inconvenient time" naturally means that he doesn't want to show up in front of Rutherford's eyes. This was already thought of by White the moment he went downstairs.

"Brother Tang, in fact, you should contact me before you come, so that I will be prepared to take time to accompany you around, see the scenery of 'Babylon', and even go to 'Toratier', 'Archesy' ' Take a stroll over there."

Corey Christian's enthusiasm made Tang Fang a little unbearable. If he was not the person in charge of the "Babylon" branch of the "Rover Technology Consortium", he would have put it elsewhere. I'm afraid it makes people worry about whether his sexuality and orientation are normal.

At this moment, White David went back and forth with a tall man. A female secretary with a pair of rimless glasses on the bridge of her nose came up with five steaming cups of coffee and pushed them in front of several people. Dao Sheng: "use slowly".

Watching the two disappear, Tang Fang finally found a chance to change the topic: "Brother Corey, let's not talk about the polite words, let's talk about business matters."

For a real businessman, doing business is like fighting a war. Firstly, we must recharge our batteries, secondly, we must know ourselves and the enemy, and thirdly, we must prescribe the right medicine. In many cases, being impatient will not only bring no benefits, but may also cause unexpected troubles. Tang Fang was well aware of this. The main reason why he went straight to the point was that he didn't want to talk nonsense with Corey Christian.

He has no shortage of cleverness, but not all smart people are social butterflies.

"I know what you're here for."

Perhaps feeling the slight alienation in Tang dialect,

Corey Christian's smile faded, and he became serious: "Brother, you should have noticed it."

Tang Fang knew what he was referring to, nodded: "I want to know who is playing tricks inside."

"Needless to say, I can't run away from 'Iga Industry'." Corey Christian narrowed his eyes slightly. At this time, he was like an old fox showing his fangs and sharp teeth, his whole temperament changed.

How can he be an ordinary person who can be the head of a branch in a place like "Babylon". Tang Fang was not surprised, turned his head and glanced at Aros with a calm face, picked up the coffee cup with a circle of gilt patterns on the rim, dipped it on his lips, smacked it carefully, said: "Good coffee", and took a sip Swallowing it down, putting down the cup unhurriedly, said in a deep voice, "More than that..."

Talk about business. He finally regained his composure and calmly waited for Corey Christian's answer.

this time. Finally it was Corey Christian's turn to be moved. He squinted his eyes and paused for a moment on Tang Fang's face. Slowly said: "'Iga Industry' alone cannot bear the negative impact of raising mineral prices, and those old guys on the board of directors will never make fun of the foundation for many years because of a mere 'Fukui Junichi'... There is something behind this incident. The shadow of the top executives of the Star Alliance." After speaking, Tang Fang did not see any reaction, and added: "It's not just O'Neill."

"Sure enough, those old guys can't sit still..." Tang Fang didn't move, and Aros, who was beside him, stuffed a cigar into his mouth at some point, raised his head and let out a puff of smoke.

Corey Christel frowned, turned and walked towards the desk, and when he came back, there was an exquisitely shaped iron box in his palm, and he gently pushed it in front of Aros.

There is a lifelike silver eagle with fluttering wings on the cigar box, and there is a line of English below it, to the effect that "from Havana, 200 years of quality precipitation, pure handmade, casting extraordinary charm." There is no doubt that this is a box from the Silver Eagle Group. Waiting for cigars, the value of one is worth a month's salary of an ordinary white-collar worker.

The veteran didn't say much, picked up the cigar box and took a closer look, opened the lid, took out the cigars one by one and put them into the pocket of the military uniform, and then, under Corey's astonished eyes, sold the cigars worth thousands of coins Throw the beautiful humidor without hesitation into the trash can full of confetti next to it.

"What a nice humidor, isn't it a perfect pair with your lighter?"

It was not Corey Christian who spoke, but Howson. He bent down to pick up the cigar box in the trash can, and looked at the veteran with a puzzled face.

As the two people who have been following Tang Fang since planet 5, Howson knows veterans no less than the captain. Guns, lighters, and cigar boxes are the old guy’s favorite things. It’s hard to imagine that he would put such exquisite Throw it away as garbage.

Aros snuffed out half of the cigar, grabbed the cigar box from Howson's hand, and threw it into the trash can without explaining, not even the slightest change in expression.

Corey Christian twitched the corner of his mouth twice, looked at the silent Tang Fang, and laughed dryly: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just a cigar box." After speaking, he got up and walked to the desk, and after a long time took another A cigar box returned and was pushed in front of Aros again.

This time, the old soldier opened his eyelids to look at him, and said: "Thank you." He picked up the cigar box, and put the cigars in his pocket into the box one by one, keeping it close to him.

If it were an ordinary person, even if the host didn't like the gift, he would never throw it into the trash can on the spot. He was fine, and he didn't care about other people's face at all. But the strange thing is that Corey Christian couldn't feel a trace of anger, and the veteran who was a decade younger than him in front of him exuded a calm and ruthless aura. Like a huge bow full of hundreds of stones, such a person will not be vain. I also disdain falsehood and falsehood.

Like Howson, Tang Fang was very puzzled why the veteran did this. Could it be because he hated the Silver Eagles and listed him as a wanted criminal? It stands to reason that it shouldn't be. Veterans never show such emotions like venting their anger.

Tang Lin, who had been sitting still and didn't even take a sip of coffee, seemed to see something. He stared at the cigar box in the trash can. In the end, he didn't say anything. After all, he was only suspicious. Besides, there are outsiders present.

"I want to know who in the upper echelons of the Covenant has meddled in this matter."

Tang Fang took another sip of coffee. After all, it was used by big companies to entertain VIPs. It tasted good. Compared with the coffee made by Claire, it was better in all aspects, especially the lingering water vapor flowing over his mouth and nose like catkins. The mellow fragrance brought by it is like a drug, which is addictive.

Corey Christian pondered for a moment, then said vaguely: "There are many."

"I want his name, or...a list."

He made such a big commotion in "Jakartapur", he had already made psychological preparations to deal with the senior management of the Star Alliance, and the "Jakartapur" star system was close to the golden channel. If he can't take the sword that is strangling his throat, he will turn his back on the guest, and what will he want to do in the future. Wouldn't it all fall into the eyes of those old men of the Star Alliance.

Getting rid of Clement and buying Newton, Dalton and others is the first step, and founding "Morning Star Foundry" is the second step. As for the third step, it was already thought up on the way to "Babylon". To play a game of chess with those old foxes in the council, a game of big, big chess, a game of chess that can affect the composition of the Star Alliance.

Corey Christian's face changed, and he looked into Tang Fang's eyes. The expression became very complicated, so complicated that it was somewhat incomprehensible.

"Okay. The so-called reciprocation, I will arrange for someone to do it. It's just that it takes time."

"Thank you." Tang Fang nodded, then changed the subject, and asked, "Are the prices of iridium-containing minerals and cesium-containing minerals still rising?"

Corey Christian clapped his hands, light and shadow flickered on the ultra-thin video screen hanging on the wall directly opposite the sofa, and a real-time price list of mineral resources appeared in front of everyone.

According to the above data, the prices of iridium-containing minerals and cesium-containing minerals have increased by 0.06% month-on-month today. Not only that, even the other minerals needed to make dimensional locks have also increased to varying degrees. This may be because Walton , Joey and others' continued acquisitions may also be due to the butterfly effect brought about by the continuous rise in the prices of iridium-containing minerals and cesium-containing minerals.

But no matter what the effect is, there is a pair of hands with huge energy carefully fiddled with the beads, fueling the flames and creating obstacles for him to purchase minerals. "Morning Star Casting" has only been approved by the Star Alliance government a few days ago. The production line has been built, but this does not mean that the old guys in the parliament will underestimate him. No one knows if he has a dock built in places such as deep space, wandering asteroids, and foreign territories. After all, the Morningstar is a It is a very good example, and the fact that the Apollo pirates led by Charlemagne were defeated by the joint attack of the Morning Star and the unknown fleet in the "Dilal" star system has probably spread among the high-level government. .

Regardless of the fact that "Morning Star Foundry" is just a shell company on the surface, no one knows the actual background. The acquisition of minerals by Walton and Joey will naturally cause food for thought in the eyes of some interested people.

The emergence of "Morning Star Foundry" will inevitably have a certain impact on the Star Alliance's shipbuilding industry, blocking the way of many people, and Tang Fang's strength in "Jakartapur" will inevitably arouse the vigilance of some big figures in the parliament Just like the current "Rise in Mineral Prices" incident, it is absolutely impossible for only one company, "Iga Industry", to obstruct it. I am afraid that some forces have reached a consensus to give him a "point" Color voila.

Of course, ordinary people are still like this, not to mention those old people in the political arena, with the lessons learned by Clement, if they want to play tricks on the level of privilege, they naturally have to weigh their own weight. Fang caught the handle and shook his head outside like this, wouldn't his reputation be ruined.

Since political means are not enough, why not use economic means? People like Onion Carter and Terry Ferdinand have many big capitalists and chaebol vassals, and these people will come forward. Sanctioning and harming "Morning Star Casting" through commercial means, who can say anything? Who will say what?

There has never been gunpowder in the mall, but there has never been a shortage of blood and corpses.

Tang Fang gripped the coffee cup tightly. He had already drank half of the coffee, and there was a ring of foam floating around the edge. Big and small, with different densities, just like the eyes of those enemies who hide in the dark and stare at him.

He blew lightly, and the ripples shattered into pieces. He thought it was fun, so he blew countless bubbles one by one, and finally only a few remained. Still clinging to the rim of the cup and fighting him tenaciously.

The corners of Corey Christian's mouth twitched when he watched this scene, and he thought, "Who is this kid?" When he is smart, an old fritter in the mall like him can't help but feel trembling, but when he is naughty, it makes people laugh and cry. Cup How did the coffee foam in the bag offend him? He must be killed.

"That's the way it is with minerals."

The coffee is not so hot anymore, and the mellowness is also a little thinner.

Tang Fang put the cup back on the tea table, turned his head and smiled at Corey Christian, "Let's talk about another business."

Next to Tang Lin handed over a pda, and Tang Fang handed it over to Corey Christian: "There are some information on the general equipment of the Monya Empire Army in it, please make a price."

Corey Christel was a little surprised when Tang Fang said that he would discuss a business with him. Until he took the pda with a blank expression, listened to Tang Fang's statement, and saw the model of the armored vehicle on the screen of the pda. As if someone stepped on his foot, his eyes suddenly widened.

Johnny said that Tang Fang did not know where he got a large part of the Monyadi* side's confidential information, from ground vehicles to naval warships. He originally planned to sell them all in exchange for a large amount of star coins to buy minerals , but later came up with the idea of ​​forming the "Morning Star Foundry", so naturally it would not be sold again.

Corey Christian is not a straightforward person. He doesn't think that "Morning Star Foundry" will honestly focus on the field of civilian ships. Now that the core technology is in hand, it is bound to squeeze into the arms market in the future. After contacting Tang Fang, he was even more sure of this.

Indeed. Compared with the sale of warships, the profit of land vehicles is much smaller, but this does not mean that he will definitely sell the manufacturing technology of land vehicles. The Monya Empire has a deep understanding of the structural materials of ships and vehicles. Achievements, if secondary research can be carried out on the basis of the original manufacturing process, it is difficult to guarantee that more excellent products will not be developed.

But what does he mean by doing this now? Doesn't it mean giving away potential business opportunities? In this era, science and technology are the primary productive forces and the priceless treasure!

After thinking about it carefully, Corey Christian got an answer. I am afraid that Tang Fang is short of money. Setting up a heavy industry enterprise is easy to say, but difficult to do in practice. Even if the government passes this test, the factory site, production line, A series of problems such as employees and the market will make him rack his brains. The "Jakartapur" relic transaction brought him 1 billion star coins. If the money is used for life, 200 people on the Morning Star It's no problem to be popular, drink hot food and wear gold and silver, but if it's a dock-type space station, it's just a drop in the bucket.

"Brother Tang, here are a total of 12 types of land vehicles, as well as the manufacturing process of 'Guardian Knight' and 2 experimental models of power armor, how about this... I will give you 300 million star coins for vehicles... As for the 3 types of power armor , look... 22 billion star coins, what is the price?"

In today's era, the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers in land warfare is getting stronger and stronger, and power armor is becoming more and more advanced. Indispensable, it is like a firearm and has become an indispensable combat equipment for today's armored infantry.

With the progress of the times, power armor will continue to develop, and big guys like the main station tank will gradually withdraw from the stage of history and be replaced by land vehicles like "disciple" equipped with new weapons. This is why "power armor" "One of the reasons why the manufacturing process of "Galaxy Armament Research and Development Center is more valuable than the vehicle manufacturing process sealed in the Galaxy Armament Research and Development Center.

In addition, another important reason is the scientific and technological content. The scientific and technological content of power armor is much higher than that of land vehicles. The history of tanks and armored vehicles can be traced back to the end of the 19th century, while "power armor" is nearly Things that have just emerged for more than 100 years, they have greatly strengthened the role of individual soldiers in the armored group, increased the combat effectiveness of the troops, and also improved the survivability of the soldiers. The armor must not only adapt to the structure of the human body, but also provide bonuses in terms of mobility, defense, explosive power, and detection. This makes the internal structure of power armor much more precise than ordinary combat vehicles, which is a test of a country's technology. level.

22 billion star coins, almost catching up with the value of a new type of battleship. This is the "Guardian Knight" that has been eliminated by the Monya Empire. If it is replaced with the latest "Earth Knight", the price will double. If the "Earth Knight" What about "King Kong"? (to be continued)
