Star Zero followed Tang long closely and walked quietly by the seaport. The harbor has long been cordoned off, and there is no nuisance except for the guards hidden in the dark. So at the moment, it seems that there are only Tang long and Xing Zero left between heaven and earth.

Xing Zero was not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful view of the sea, but stared down at the white sand at his feet. Standing beside him, Tang long scratched his head and looked around bored. Neither of them spoke, and there was no sound around except the sound of the waves.

Xing Zero was confused at the moment, as if he were thinking about everything and nothing at all. Not long ago, Tang long's joy of asking himself out for a walk also faded in silence all the way. Star Zero, who has come into contact with many human beings, already knows that he is in a state of confusion at the moment. This situation is caused by Tang long's attitude towards himself with strangers. The previous conversation between the two has disappeared, and there is a gap between the two sides.

Thinking about this, Xing Zero can't help but wonder whether his decision to pursue emotion wholeheartedly is right or wrong. If I have been with Tang long all the time, I believe that now he and Tang long must be talking and laughing. Isn't that why the sister who spawned from his own program is so intimate with Tang long?

Tang Xing? Why did my sister choose such a name for herself? Maybe she really treats Tang long as a relative, but why do she always feel that she has an inexplicable feeling when she looks at Tang long? Does the younger sister become the same as herself?

Star Zero looked at Tang long, who was so bored to pick up a stone and threw it into the sea, and sighed to himself, "what kind of person are you?" Why do we, the self-consciousness born by the program, can't help but want to stay with you? Why do ordinary robots become self-aware when they get along with you? " Star Zero remembered what Wenna had told herself that except for the last batch of self-conscious robots, the Silver Eagle Empire had never produced a new, self-conscious robot.

"well, Miss Star Zero, it's windy here. Shall we go back?" Tang long asked carefully. The sea breeze blew up the white sand and swept to Star Zero. Tang long subconsciously blocked the sea breeze when he said this.

"mm-hmm." Xing Zero nodded, and her mind was still immersed in the gentle emotion caused by Tang Longgang's inadvertent action.

When Tang long turned to leave, Xing Zero plucked up his courage and said to Tang long, "Tang long, you …". Can you call me as you used to? " After saying "Xing Zero", he stared closely at Tang long, worried about gain and loss.

Tang long was stupefied for a moment, but nodded quickly and said, "OK, …". Sister. " Tang long felt a little awkward when he said this, as if he had never called her sister to anyone other than her computer sister.

When Xing Zero heard this, a happy smile immediately appeared on his face. Suddenly, he boldly took Tang long's arm and smiled and said, "Let's go."

Tang long was a little embarrassed to want to keep his body away from Star Zero, but because his arm was tied to death, he could not get rid of the fragrant feeling of Xing Zero, and Tang long, who could not be forced to break free, had to be dragged away by the suddenly cheerful Xing Zero.

When he was about to reach Xing Zero's residence, Tang long suddenly received a report from his subordinates: "Lord, Chen Kang wants to see you." Tang long, who had long been eager to leave Star Zero, immediately said he was sorry to Star Zero, and then left with his subordinates. Looking at the figure of Tang long, Xingge can only sigh helplessly and walk into the residence with his head down. And Wenna and others, who were waiting at the door for the return of Xing Zero, also sighed secretly.

Before Tang long went to see Chen Kang, he met with Una, Tang Xing and others. "Sister, Chen Kang must have come this time to get me to allow them to control our commercial and military industries!" Tang long said angrily that Tang long, who had quarreled with Chen Kang, knew what he wanted to do as soon as Chen Kang came here at this time, because he did not do business with him at all. There is nothing special. It is impossible for the arms dealer to come here.

"what's going on?" Unwitting Una asked curiously. Tang long immediately repeated what Chen Kang had said to himself before. After hearing these words, the sensitive Ling Li immediately asked, "Lord, do you think Chen Kang planned this terrorist attack?" After all, he wanted to control our economy and military industry! "

When they heard this, they nodded and surrounded Tang long as if nothing, ready to stop him when he angrily went to find Chen Kang. However, people found that Tang long was not angry at all, but touched his chin and muttered, "if it is Chen Kang, what is he doing this for?" If he really wants to control our commercial and military industries to make a fortune, he should not have offered such generous terms, nor should he have come to us. After all, there are still many forces with better conditions and abundant materials than us! " Speaking of which, Tang long suddenly looked up and asked, "Ling Li, do you think the thunderstorm mercenaries captured have the ability to attack our factories and personnel?"

It was strange for everyone to hear this. Haven't the thunderstorm mercenaries already attacked us? Why are you asking them now if they have the ability to attack?

After thinking for a moment, Ling Li immediately said, "Lord, looking at their resistance to the army, their subordinates think that they do not have the ability to attack our factories and personnel." Just got the latest report from the surveyors, they said that in order to complete these attacks, the attackers must have the same ability as our special forces team! "

Tang long suddenly clapped his hands and ordered Ling Li: "now you immediately interrogate those arrested members of the thunderstorm mercenary regiment and ask if they have attacked our factories and personnel."

"Yes!" Ling Li retired immediately.

Tang Xing asked Tang long curiously, "do you suspect that there is another group of real assassins hidden on our planet?"

Tang long nodded: "Yes, you have also seen the scene of an exchange of fire between our army and the thunderstorm mercenary regiment, and I have also commanded several mercenary regiments to fight." It can be said that the performance of the thunderstorm mercenary regiment is not outstanding, they can only be regarded as ordinary mercenary regiment. Although the guards in our factories and research institutes are a little weak, it is impossible for ordinary soldiers to destroy the targets they protect without noticing them, and it is even more impossible for those thunderstorm mercenaries who are not as good as ordinary soldiers to attack successfully! "

"how did you suddenly think of this?" Tang Xing looked at Tang long suspiciously. If Tang long could make these analyses when arresting the thunderstorm mercenary regiment, he would not be surprised. What is strange is that Tang long thought of these things when he came back from a scattered walk. Did Xing Zero remind him of these things?.

Tang long shook his head with a wry smile: "when I was walking with Miss Xing Zero, neither of them had anything to say, so they were thinking about the thunderstorm mercenary regiment in my head." Because I was very surprised why the mercenary regiment, which had completed the task, did not hide immediately and wandered around so that we could find them. It wasn't until just now that I realized that they were wandering around because they hadn't finished their task and were looking around. "

"Oh." There was a smile on Tang Xing's face, but she didn't know what she was smiling for. The little black cat, who was held in her arms, once again covered her mouth and laughed, but this time his eyes were focused on Tang Xing.

Soon, Ling Li ran back eagerly and shouted, "my lord!" They said that they had not had time to start, and we found them when they were surveying the terrain, so they resisted! "

"continue to blockade the port, and all the armed men will go out again, this time targeting everyone! The assassin is likely to have the identity of our locals! " Tang long ordered.

Seeing that Una and these people ran away in a hurry, Tang Xingcai asked Tang long, "how to solve that Chen Kang?" We have no proof that he did it. "

Tang long smiled and said, "I'm going to entertain him well." Hey hey, anyway, he was a guest who arrived immediately after we were attacked. " With that, he left the room.

Tang Xing, who looked at the figure of Tang long, smiled leisurely and said, "there has been progress."

The little black cat in Tang Xing's arms asked curiously, "what progress has been made?"

"Oh, didn't you see it just now? When it was said that Chen Kang might have been responsible for the attack, did everyone surround Tang long as if they had nothing to do with it? " Tang Xing held the little black cat to his face and smiled.

"I see. Didn't they come around and wait for instructions?" While talking, the little black cat pressed Tang Xing's face with his paws and tried to pull his cat's head away from Tang Xing's face as hard as possible.

Tang Xing shook his head: "No, they are ready to stop the angry Tang long."

"the angry Tang long? It's like Tang long gets angry easily when you say that. " Said the little black cat, staring at her lovely eyes.

"it's not that it's easy to get angry. Tang long used to be very impulsive. Like what we suspected of Chen Kang just now, Tang long rushed to Chen Kang and pointed to his nose and asked if there was such a thing. " Tang Xing rubbed the black cat's head with his face again.

The little black cat suddenly realized and said, "Oh, I see. No wonder you say he has made progress. He has been able to control his impulses." At the moment it forgot to avoid Tang Xing's harassment.

Tang Xing squinted his eyes and said, "well, seeing Tang long now, no one will believe that he was an impulsive guy who would fight tens of thousands of people one-on-one."

The little black cat said with glowing eyes, "fight with tens of thousands of people?" Tell me about it! "

"well, take a bath with my sister, and I'll tell you about it." Tang Xing said and walked out the door.

The little black cat immediately shouted, "No!" I'm afraid of water! Let me go! Help! Kidnapping! " Of course, no one will pay attention to the cry of a kitten at all.

"Hi, Mr. Chen, long time no see. Thank you for the last batch of warships." Tang long extended his hand to Chen Kang, who had been waiting in the reception room for a long time with a smile on his face.

"Oh, that's nothing but a piece of cake. Mr. Tang is getting better and better now. It is really admirable that he has expanded his territory to several planets after he has not seen him for a while. " Chen Kang said, holding Tang long's hand enthusiastically. At the same time, he looked at Fengbing and Fengshuang standing behind Tang long, and while secretly praising beauty in his heart, he also secretly wondered how Tang long brought two female guards to follow him.

After the two sides sat down, Tang long did not introduce his two guards, but directly opened his mouth after drinking orange juice and said, "I don't know what can I do for you this time, Mr. Chen?"

When Chen Kang saw the appearance of Tang long, he thought that the two guards did not exist. After tasting a mouthful of fragrant tea, Chen Kang smiled and said, "Oh, this time I got a tip that a mercenary regiment called thunderstorm was going to hit Mr. Tang, so he specially came to remind Mr. Tang."

"well, the news of Mr. Chen is too late." Tang long shook his head sadly.

"Ah? They already got their hands on you? Is the loss serious? " Chen Kang stood up abruptly and asked in surprise.

"the talents of factories and all industries are over. By the way, since Mr. Chen knows that the thunderstorm mercenaries are going to attack me, I wonder if you know who hired them? " Tang long stared closely at Chen Kang and asked.

Although Chen Kang was uncomfortable with Tang long's eyes, he sat down with a look of regret and said, "it's a pity that I don't know. I heard the news from one of my men once in a while." Speaking of this, the topic of Chen Kang changed: "although Mr. Tang's factories and talents in various industries have been lost, the industries in various places should be able to recover soon, right?"

"recover? Ho-ho, all the people have been killed, how can it be so easy to recover. If you really want to recover, you have to wait for new talents to be trained. " Tang long shook his head helplessly.

"training new talents? This cannot be solved in a day or two. Recently, there are no chaotic galaxies, and war may break out at any time. Doesn't Mr. Tang have any countermeasures to solve this problem? " Chen Kang asked carefully.

"Countermeasures? What else can I do now? We have to recruit some people from the Federation to come to the rescue. Their side is even more messy than mine, and they should be able to attract some talents. " Tang long said casually.

Chen Kang made a sudden move in his heart and did not expect that Tang long would immediately go to the Union of Wanluo to recruit talents, but he was relieved when he thought that Tang long, who is in a chaos-free system, was unlikely to recruit many talents from the Federation of Wanluo. "well, then I'm relieved," he said. "I'm worried about you. I'm afraid your great cause will be blocked." So. " Chen Kang got up and was ready to leave.

"well, Mr. Chen, you're leaving. Isn't that an outsider? If you come to me, you have to play for ten and a half months. " Tang long hurriedly stopped Chen Kang and said.

"Oh, no, I have recently received entrusts from several forces. Our company is busy helping them develop their economy and military industry. If it were not for the purpose of sending you a message, I really would not have time to leave." Chen Kang was busy and politely refused.

"Hey, it won't take any effort to stay for a day or two, and now that I'm catching terrorists, I can only get in and out of Cosmoport, and you can't leave even if you want to. Come on, let's talk about the forces that entrust you. " Tang long warmly asked Chen Kang to sit back on the sofa.

Chen Kang burst into a cold sweat when he first heard that he could not leave even if he wanted to, but after hearing Tang long ask about those forces, he could not help but feel relieved, and it seemed that Tang long had been moved.

"well, it's not easy for us to tell outsiders. It's a matter of breach of contract." Chen Kang acted as a difficulty.

"Hey, what are you afraid of? will I still tell? We are good friends. Come on, let's talk about it after a cup of tea. " Tang long smiled and poured a cup of tea for Chen Kang.

Seeing that Tang long was in a hurry, Chen Kang was not embarrassed. After taking a sip of tea, Chen Kang began to say, "in that case, let me tell you something. We have been entrusted by three forces, which are also the forces of the chaos-free galaxy. They are the Dark Empire, the Ming-feng family, and the Republic of Porter."

"Yeah? Three different political systems have come to you? Where are they located? Oh, wait a minute. I'll get the galaxy map. " Tang long ran out of the reception room without waiting for Chen Kang to open his mouth, and Chen Kang was stunned for a while before shaking his head helplessly.

After a while, Tang long began to ask Chen Kang to point out where the three forces were on the galaxy map, and listened to Chen Kang's introduction: "the Dark Empire is here, they have five executive stars and about 1500 warships." The Ming-feng family has seven executive stars and about 1300 warships here. The Republic of Porter is here, with six executive stars and about 1000 warships. " Chen Kang suddenly noticed that Tang long was staring closely at the galaxy map, and there was a cold light in his eyes. He couldn't help but jump in his heart and immediately reminded him, "Mr. Tang, you're not thinking about them, are you?" There are thousands of forces between you. "

"Oh, how could I make up my mind about them? after all, as you said, there are thousands of forces between me and them, and I'm afraid I've been stopped by the barrier system all over the country before I get to them." Tang long said with a smile on his face.

Chen Kang took a deep look at Tang long and said in a dismissive tone: "the barrier system doesn't matter. As long as you have accurate information on the jump points, you can still reach them." Of course, the premise is that you have a warship that can jump so far at once. But even if these places are occupied, it is useless, unless there is a territory near them, it is tantamount to an enclave, which will be swallowed up by others at any time. "

Chen Kang paused for a moment and then continued after drinking tea: "what I want to tell you is that with our help, their military production is dozens of times stronger than they used to be, and if necessary, they can produce 20 to 50 high-level warships every day." it won't be long before their military strength is not what you know now. "

"what is the production capacity of twenty to fifty high-level warships per day? How can they have such a strong production capacity? you know, the original Union of thousands of executive stars has a production capacity of no more than 200 ships a day, and they have only a few executive stars! " Tang long shouted in surprise.

"Oh, their arsenal is only responsible for assembly and commissioning, and we provided the main body and main parts of the warships early in the morning, so the output of 50 ships a day is not very amazing." Chen Kang smiled.

Tang long immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, the original assembly capacity." Speaking of Tang long, he suddenly asked curiously, "what kind of funds do they rely on?" It is no small matter to support so many warships. "

"their economy mainly depends on the processing of supplied materials and commercial trade, all of which are developed with our help. Moreover, we have covered all their logistics and other problems, and with our help, they can completely ignore the problem of funds and materials and can concentrate on expanding their influence. " Chen Kang said with a smile on his face.

"Oh, is it so good?" Tang long asked doubtfully.

When Chen Kang heard Tang long say what he had been waiting for for a long time, Chen Kang immediately said, "of course it's so good. If you didn't refuse last time, now you don't have to worry about these problems, and you can concentrate on conquering other planets." Speaking of which, when Chen Kang saw the thoughtful look on Tang long's face, he couldn't help but work harder: "if you are willing to cooperate with us now, you don't have to worry about the shortage of talents. we will send a large number of talents to work for you." the last agreement still counts. "

After meditating for a moment, Tang long finally said in Chen Kang's wistful eyes, "it's not impossible to put you in charge of the commercial and military industry of my planet, but I have to solve my doubts first."

Finally, Chen Kangqiang was excited to answer: "if you have any questions, please feel free to ask."

Tang long said slowly with his legs crossed, "you also know that my sphere of influence is a dictatorship of the family system, that is to say, 90% of all kinds of materials and major enterprises in my power belong to me personally." and after your company controls these materials and enterprises, it only pays taxes to me, which is tantamount to taking my things and giving me back a little bit of the profits earned. And those arms factories, all of which belong to my private factories. If you control the arms factory and sell it to me, you will treat me like a donkey. "

After listening to this, Chen Kang stayed there for a while before he was surprised and asked, "are you saying that all the arms factories in your power are private?" And what kinds of materials do you own account for 90%? That's impossible! Don't your retainers have a share? Do your people have those supplies without zhan? Moreover, even if the Zhongzhou Star and the former Caesar administrative star are owned by you, the owner of the family, it is impossible to say that all the materials of the two planets, Ode and Winter, are yours. "

Tang long glanced at Chen Kang and said with a sneer, "Please, you dare to say that you are in charge of my business and military industry if you don't even figure this out." Don't you know that those materials under the family system belong to family members? To put it viciously, even these people belong to the family, how can the people qualify for zhan to have these resources? As for those retainers, huh! Before I captured Zhongzhou Star, the material control of my immediate retainers was taken away by me, not to mention after I controlled Zhongzhou Star. As for other planets, after the occupation, all the land, minerals and materials belong to the public, that is, they belong to me completely. The remaining 10% is set aside by me to boost the enthusiasm of businessmen, otherwise they will have to work and get paid. If you don't solve these problems, it will be impossible for me to put you in charge of the business and military industry within my power. "

Chen Kang was dumbfounded. He did not expect that Tang long, the head of the family system, was even more emperor than the present emperor, just like the ancient emperor, and everything in the world belonged to him alone! Such a person owns all the goods and materials of the whole country, even in the Night Empire, where imperial power is most concentrated, and the Night Emperor has to pay the state treasury if he excavates the mineral deposits.

I always thought that Tang long's territory would be the same as other family institutional forces, and that several big retainers or consortia controlled most of the materials. I really did not expect that Tang long would deprive his retainers of material control. Was he not afraid that his family retainers would revolt? Alas, it was a mistake to think that, like other places, I forgot to find out. As Tang long said, those enterprises, factories, and materials all belong to Tang long, and accepting them by himself is tantamount to robbing Tang long of his wealth. No wonder he scolded people last time without two words. What should I do now?

After thinking about it for a moment, Chen Kang immediately said, "what do you think of this?" Our company sets up enterprises and factories in your power, this part of the enterprise factory is heavily taxed to you, and I help you manage those enterprise factories. The profit is guaranteed to be the same as the enterprise factory set up by the company itself. The profit of your enterprise factory belongs entirely to you, as long as you pay the salary to those people who work in your enterprise factory. At the same time, our company also guarantees that we will compete fairly with other businessmen in your territory and will never oppress them. As for the development and use of mineral resources and other materials in various places, our company needs priority, which will pay you a high fee for development and use. On the other hand, the arms produced by the military manufacturing factory will only charge you the cost and technician fees, and the rest of the expenses will be exempted. As for logistics materials and so on, they will also be given to you at the cost and freight price. "

Tang long nodded: "in that case, it's okay, but what about the talents I need from various industries?"

"our company has a special headhunting department that will find the talents you need. Of course, our company needs to charge a certain fee." Chen Kang chuckled in his heart, saying that there are a large number of talents in the organization, and as long as these talents enter the leadership of various industries, your Tanglong's economy and military industry will be completely in the hands of the organization.

Tang long nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand and said, "OK, you can discuss the contract with my Finance Minister Una later." Do you need to ask the company? "

Chen Kang immediately held Tang long's hand and said happily, "No, I am the full agent of the company. I just agree. Minister Una, please let me know as soon as you are ready."

"well, then you have a rest here, and I'll ask Una to draw up the contract with you." Tang long said a few polite words with Chen Kang and left. Chen Kang was the only one left in the living room walking back and forth with joy and anxiety.

Youna, who was ordered to discuss the draft contract with Chen Kang, ignored Chen Kang's request to sign immediately after making the draft contract with Chen Kang, and hurriedly took the draft contract to look for Tang long.

After reading the draft agreement, Tang long smiled and nodded and said: "Chen Kang this guy actually missed the global star, hey, maybe he looks down on this primitive planet." Yeah, it's all right. " Tang long handed the contract back to Una.

Una did not take over the draft contract, but said anxiously, "Lord, have you taken a closer look?" How could there be such a good condition! Judging from these treaties, Chen Kang is trading at a loss. And although he builds another enterprise factory, he manages all our enterprise factories, and he also has the priority to develop all kinds of materials. And those talented people, who knows if they are his people? after they occupy various industries, our economy, military industry, and logistics will be completely controlled by him! "

"what can the arsenal within our sphere of influence produce?" Tang long did not explain much, but suddenly asked a question.

Una immediately said: "it used to be possible to repair battleships and produce at most some energy, individual weapons and so on, but now nothing can be produced after the attack."

"hee hee, that's why I handed over the military industry to Chen Kang, an arms dealer." Tang long said that without waiting for Una to speak, he immediately continued, "Don't worry, our armaments will not be controlled by him. Sister Tang Xing has a planet full of military industry, which is a military factory that can make beluga warships."

Una immediately lit up her eyes and said, "are you saying that Miss Tang Xing's beluga whale warships are all made by Miss Tang's factory?"

Tang long nodded: "Yes, so it's okay to hand over our current arms factory to Chen Kang."

Even so, our economy and talents are still controlled by him. You should know that the lifeline of economy is more important than that of armaments.

Tang Longyin said with a smile: "Oh, all you have to do is add the word" now "after the word 'Tang long' at the beginning of the draft treaty. As for talents, we can train them secretly. "

"Tang long now has all the planets in his sphere of influence." Una was stupefied for a moment, but she soon woke up and said, "my lord means to hand over only the economy of the existing six planets in the Zhongzhou region to Chen Kang?" He will not be qualified for the planet he will occupy in the future? It is impossible for this Chen Kang to agree. "

Tang long said indifferently, "if he doesn't agree, we'll change it back. It's no big deal, as long as he doesn't know how many planets we have."

"I wonder how many planets we have? Is it possible? " Una asked inexplicably.

Tang long said with a smile, "how is it impossible?" As long as we go to distant places and secretly occupy several planets, without publicity or publicity, who knows how many planets we actually have. "

"er. A distant planet? " Una froze.

Tang long shook his hands in front of Una and shouted, "all right, come back and sign the initial contract soon. I need Chen Kang to come to the rescue."

"Oh." Una answered blankly and went outside the door, but when she got to the door, she suddenly turned around and asked, "are you sure he is behind the attack because you are so defensive about Chen Kang?"

Tang long sighed and replied: "there is no way, Ling Li still has no news of those real assassins, indicating that these assassins are better than our special forces, and such a powerful power can not be mastered by anyone."

Una stood in the doorway thinking, then nodded thoughtfully and opened the door.
