228. Industrial giant
Tang Xiao was originally in a bad mood when he came out of Darth Plagueis. Now that the assistant handed over this target, he immediately wanted to have a seizure.
He spoke without anger or authority. Whether as a Sith or as a leader, his current momentum was definitely not something ordinary people could bear.
The assistant was already covered in cold sweat and trembling all over. He quickly knelt down and explained: "No...that's not what I mean...manager. This is the accumulation of technology, not to build these warships immediately..."
"Get up and talk." Tang Xiao said calmly.
The assistant stood up and continued to explain: "The Puppet-class drone carrier is for us to build an aircraft carrier in the future to accumulate technology, while the ion cannon destroyer is to further enhance the firepower of our fleet, and the Apocalypse-class light cruiser is for... …”
"Who submitted this plan? Let me guess, it wasn't Chi Jianjun, right?" Tang Xiao asked before he could finish.
The assistant lowered his head and whispered: "No...it was submitted by Carls Wharton from the Supreme Command...Some of his opinions conflict with Professor Chi..."
Tang Xiao smiled coldly, the Fourth Civilization was not that big, but now it is actually starting to have factional fights? He snorted coldly, "It's good to have different opinions, but what about the proposal that obviously goes against the established plan I put forward? So, Karls-Wharton thinks that my decision to suspend the development of large warships is wrong. ?”
"No...no! I don't think he would be like this..." The assistant's clothes were soaked in cold sweat again.
"Tell my words to Carls Walton. His punishment is to be detained for a week. If he does it again next time, he will commit suicide. That's it." Tang Xiao dropped these words and walked away.
"yes!"
After coming to the office and reviewing the urban development strategy reported by Interior Minister Daphne Clement, Tang Xiao looked at the entry messages waiting for his instructions, and then connected to a communication.
Francis Underwood's holographic projection appeared. He bowed to Tang Xiao first, and then said: "Phoenix Vallen is preparing to hold a trade summit on the planet Eriadu. This trade The summit will invite major corporate giants in the galaxy and other influential organizations to participate. It aims to resolve existing disputes, initiate dialogue, and get the Galactic Republic back on track."
A sneer appeared on the corner of Tang Xiao's mouth, "This meeting will not lead to any results. You can refer to the main opinions of the trade alliance at the meeting to decide our current diplomatic strategy. I have only one request - to further improve our industrial capabilities. Tie, don’t just use our power in the black market, we need orders from official channels.”
"You seem to think this meeting is a victory for the Trade Alliance?" Francis asked.
"Yes, and no. But what I need to remind you is..." Tang Xiao stretched out his thumb and scratched his neck.
Francis nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "Recently, Sheev Palpatine once again revealed his idea of letting us enter the Galactic Parliament. According to my judgment, he is probably serious. .”
Tang Xiao nodded, "According to his plan, the time is getting closer. If he wants to impeach Finis Valoran and then replace him, he must get enough votes. As long as you continue to show your ability in this regard, Value, sooner or later he will hand us an olive branch."
“The opinions of the Ring faction members are very important, and I am closer to them now. But in fact, I think that the votes of the Ring faction members themselves are part of Palpatine’s plan, and what he needs should be the votes of other factions. "
"For example?"
"Planet Kuart, Planet Rendili, Planet Corellia...these old industrial planets and the support of the huge industrial giants behind them!" Francis Underwood became serious, "But we must What I understand is that these old industrial planets simply look down on other political entities in the galaxy, and they disdain to participate in any factional struggles. Because they know that no matter how the galaxy changes, their own status will always be rock-solid. So they participate in politics The only purpose is to protect their own interests.”
Tang Xiao pondered for a while, and then said: "If my guess is correct, Palpatine should have already started his plan to target these industrial giants. However, my knowledge in this regard is not particularly detailed, but I know a The general direction. In Palpatine's future plan for his empire, one industrial giant is enough. And the one he chose was Quart."
Francis nodded slightly, "So, Rendili and Corellia were abandoned?"
"Corellia is okay, because the Corellia galaxy has an abnormal 5 habitable planets. They are a comprehensive and powerful galaxy in themselves, and industry is only a part of their strength. Even if Palpatine becomes the emperor, Corellia still has enough ability to guarantee his position, so... you understand." Tang Xiao smiled slightly.
"I know what to do." Francis said, "I may use some small means next. I think the two people on Corellia will be very useful."
"Dryden Voss of Bloody Dawn, and Mrs. Pixi of White Worm? It doesn't matter, you can just go find them. The relationship between me and them is in the honeymoon period now, which is pretty good." Tang Xiao replied, " It is a good choice to use them to start the layout in advance. I can also remind you that the highest level of the Corellia galaxy has actually always wanted independence. This is their deeply hidden political tendency. And Quat's The political tendency is towards a unified galactic power. Relatively speaking, Rendili is the most businessman among the three."
"This is very useful information."
"Then, where is Yuri Orlov?" Tang Xiao asked with a sigh.
Francis shook his head, "No, the Jedi Order has been staring at him, and Jedi Master Ki-Adi Mundy seems to hate Yuri. He vents all his anger on Yuri. In Master Mundy As a result, Yuri was sentenced to life imprisonment."
"So, the mediation on Seriya planet failed?" Tang Xiao said with a meaningful smile.
Francis also smiled and said: "I think Vitaly Orlov should know this better. In the past few months, he has been moving around with almost no sleep, and he has lost a lot of weight. Don't worry Well, manager, now Baron Zemo has a plan, and we are all preparing for it. Yuri should be released within half a year."

[ps: In fact, the prototype of Kuat Power Dockyard is Desan's Krupp, while Corellia is more like California in the United States. 】
