Chapter 124 Four points profit
"Miss Linda's visit this time should not just be to reminisce about old times, right?"
Peace talks?
"UNSC" has disappeared since the last war, and Li Meng has no interest in looking for it.
As long as the "UNSC" does not appear, as long as the "UNSC" base camp is not found by the exploration fleet, everyone will be safe.
Now that the exploration fleet has been withdrawn, the "UNSC" sending an envoy this time should not be prompted by the empire.
What's that for?
Linda asked: "I wonder if your forces know what happened in the S-01904 star system?"
S-01904 star system?
Looking at Linda's beautiful face, Li Meng began to think quickly.
Linda wouldn't talk about the S-01904 star system for no reason. Did something happen?
Li Meng guessed with interest: "It can't be some idiot who has occupied the S-01904 star system."
Hearing this, Linda was stunned and had a strange look on her face.
Did he know it in advance, or was he just guessing?
Linda smiled and said: "Your Excellency is indeed smart. You have really guessed it. The "Xinjing Shogunate" occupied the S-01904 star system one month ago and claimed that the S-01904 star system is the territory of the "Xinjing Shogunate". Anyone entering or exiting the Trade Mall must pay a toll tax, as well as a 10% transaction tax.”
"Xinjing Shogunate"?
This is the first time Li Meng has heard of this force.
However, judging from the name, it should be a Japanese force.
After all, the shogunate comes from Japanese history, and people from other countries would not give it such a name.
When Li Meng thought of the Japanese, he thought of Gundam.
Thinking of this, Li Meng asked: "Is the "Xinjing Shogunate" the force that owns the technological template of Mobile Suit Gundam?"
Linda nodded and said: "Yes, it's them..."
It's really them...
A trace of surprise flashed in Li Meng's eyes.
In just two years, it was unexpected that the "Xinjing Shogunate" would be able to control the S-01904 star system.
Confidence or stupidity?
Linda added: "This time I am here to discuss the crusade against the "Xinjing Shogunate" with your force. If your force is willing, the "UNSC" is willing to put aside all conflicts with your force, work together to form an alliance, and " The new Kyoto shogunate "expels S-01904 from the star system."
After finishing her words, Linda looked around calmly.
Why is it just him?
What Linda said made Li Meng look thoughtful.
Form an alliance?
Is this the purpose of Linda's trip?
Li Meng was naturally very wary of the "Xinjing Shogunate"'s occupation of the S-01904 star system.
Because the trade mall is the place where all humans on earth unlock technology.
Once controlled by someone, who would be willing to pay a large amount of tax?
Also, this is not a matter of willingness or unwillingness.
The most important thing is that the tax collection behavior of the "Xinjing Shogunate" is undoubtedly announcing to others that in the S sector, the "Xinjing Shogunate" is the only overlord, and others must pay tribute to enter the S-01904 star system. .
"UNSC" can't tolerate it, and Li Meng naturally can't tolerate it either.
but……
"The "UNSC" has massively attacked our base camp, and now it wants to eliminate all conflicts based only on the will of the "Alliance". You are very calculating."
Facing Li Meng's half-smiling gaze, Linda looked embarrassed.
The "UNSC" attack on the S-01888 star system is a fact, and it is useless to argue.
Putting away the embarrassment on her face, Linda smiled and said: "Your Excellency Li Meng, things have priorities. Why not temporarily put aside the conflict with the "UNSC" and prioritize solving the "Xinjing Shogunate", our common enemy. I think, Mr. Li Meng doesn’t want to see the “Xinjing Shogunate” gain a foothold in the S-01904 star system.”
This woman is indeed very smart.
She knows what's most important.
The content of the conversation also revolved around this key point.
As Linda said, Li Meng certainly does not want to see the "New Beijing Shogunate" gain a foothold in the S-01904 star system.
Do you want to agree?
The look on his face was thoughtful, and Li Meng fell into deep thought.
The Empire and the "Free Democratic Federation" are currently at war with each other.
If the fleet is dispatched on a large scale, the safety of the S-01919 star system cannot be guaranteed.
Thinking of this, Li Meng sighed in his heart.
Why didn't this woman come earlier? If only she had come one day earlier.
He would not so casually refuse requests for demarcation lines, peaceful coexistence, and joint development of the "Free Democratic Federation".
But is that really the case?
Could it be that just because the "New Kyoto Shogunate" occupied the S-01904 star system, he would choose to draw boundaries with the "Free Democratic Federation", live in peace, and jointly develop, in order to be able to escape and deal with the "New Kyoto Shogunate"?
No, even if Linda arrived first, he would not agree.
If we agree, the S-01919 star system will not become the empire's new base camp.
Put aside disputes, develop together, draw boundaries, and once agreed, it will become an established fact.
The S-01919 star system will no longer belong to the Empire, but will be jointly owned by the Empire and the "Free Democratic Federation".
Li Meng thought of the "Free Democratic Federation" again.
The fleet of the "Free Democratic Federation" suddenly withdrew from the S-01919 star system. Li Meng has been wondering why they did this.
Could it be related to what happened in the S-01904 star system?
If this is the case, then the "Xinjing Shogunate" has really stirred up a hornet's nest this time.
Thinking of this, Li Meng made a decision in his heart.
As Linda said, things have priorities, and he must join in the fun.
Just as Li Meng was about to agree, Linda's voice rang again.
"If we can defeat the "Xinjing Shogunate", the alliance can occupy the S-01904 star system. If your force is willing to join the alliance, the "UNSC" is willing to give a profit to your force as an apology. In this way, it is very beneficial. Among them, the UNSC accounts for three points and the noble forces account for four points, making the highest profit. I think this is enough to prove the sincerity of the "UNSC".
It is indeed very sincere, and the gap between three-point profit and four-point profit is still huge.
"UNSC" is willing to give up benefits. This is an attitude, an attitude of bowing its head.
However, "UNSC" has three points of profit, and the Empire has four points of profit. Where did the other three points go?
Li Meng asked again: "Are there other forces that have joined the alliance?"
Linda smiled and said: "Of course, in addition to your force, the Dawn Council has joined the alliance. This force, like your force, is a Chinese force and has the "Second Galaxy" technology template."
"Second Galaxy" technology template?
As a game fanatic, Li Meng is very familiar with this mobile game.
No wonder the "UNSC" would look for the Empire as the third force to join the alliance.
