"What does that mean?"
A look of shock appeared on Iapetus's face.
"There's no reason you don't understand the galactic language, right? It means literally, you have to come with me." Han Xiao stared at Interpais with interest.
"You're kidding, right? Come with you? Go where? "Interpais was confused.
"I'm not kidding. My help comes with a price. Since you're asking me for help, then as a trade, you'll become a member of the Black Star Corps and become my subordinate."
"We've never reached such a condition!" Interpais's expression changed, and he stood up abruptly.
"… Why do you think I need to negotiate with you?"
Han Xiao raised his eyebrows. "I'm helping you, so of course I have the final say in terms of the conditions. And my condition is you. You're now my subordinate."
Interpais's face twitched. He did not expect that the other party was actually targeting him!
For a moment, he had mixed feelings. He was shocked, angry, and even a little flattered.
Interpais's mind was a little confused. He said in a deep voice, "Sorry, I appreciate your favor, but I won't sign a slave contract."
"Why do you think you have the final say in this matter?"
Han Xiao could not help but be amused.
Unlike combat potential, management ability did not have a quantitative standard, and there was no direct judgment. One could only refer to past performance. This person was indeed a talent worth poaching.
There was no lack of management talents in the army, but since he had met such a talent, he might as well poach him. Han Xiao's thinking was very much in line with China's nine years of compulsory education — since he was already here, he had to poach something.
"… If you want to force me, I won't be able to resist, but would the famous Black Star do such a thing?" Interpais was helpless and could only use words to force him.
"Tsk, you're mistaken about one thing."
Han Xiao slowly walked behind Iapetus, pressed down on his shoulder, and made him sit down. He then casually said,
"If this was a normal solicitation, I wouldn't force someone to reject me. However, it's different between us. You have the intention of using me, and you've already received benefits from me. In the future, you'll need to rely on the Black Star Corps to help you stabilize your position, so I'm in charge … More accurately speaking, I'm now your creditor."
As he spoke, Han Xiao turned back to Iapetus, leaned on the table, and looked down at Iapetus. Retracting his smile, Han Xiao said calmly, "I'm not sure.
"Since you're the creditor, then you have to collect according to my standards, not how much money you have in your wallet."
Interpais was speechless. Even though this was obviously a forced sale, he had no way to go against the wishes of a big shot like Black Star.
Gritting his teeth, Interpais said in a low voice, "If you want me to work for you, you should have told me earlier. That way, I wouldn't have …"
Han Xiao opened his mouth and interrupted him.
"Don't forget, you were the one who asked me for help. You didn't ask for the conditions yourself."
Hearing this, Interpais was speechless. A sense of helplessness welled up in his heart.
It was a hinting invitation to begin with. How could he ask for the conditions openly? Did he have to add a note saying that he couldn't be forced to work for him? That would be too shameless! Who knew that Black Star would take a liking to him!
At this point, Interpais had no other choice. Black Star had completely taken the lead. If he really insisted on refusing, he had no doubt that the Black Star Corps would turn around and cooperate with the major families. The situation now was different from during the election. During the election, he had nothing to lose, so no matter how bad the situation was, it wouldn't change. However, now that he was elected as the lord and had achieved results, Black Star's attitude determined whether his position was secure or not. It even determined his life. He was completely in Black Star's control.
At this moment, Interpais only had one thought.
— — What exactly do you see in me? I'll change, alright!
Seeing Interpais' troubled expression, Han Xiao narrowed his eyes and deliberately lowered his tone.
"Let's talk about the facts. Is the Black Star Corps so repulsive to you?"
Hearing this, Interpais was taken aback. He frowned and thought for a while before finally shaking his head.
Excluding the conflict caused by reverse psychology, Interpais had to admit that the Black Star Corps did have a better future.
How could being the lord on an ordinary colonial planet compare to being personally recruited by Black Star?
"I'm actually not against joining the army. It's just that I didn't run for the sake of my future. I wanted to do something for the mother planet …" Interpais sighed and had to briefly explain his ambition.
He was born in an ordinary family and started from scratch. After he made a name for himself, he became more and more dissatisfied with the corruption in his hometown. Therefore, he chose this way to try to break the corrupt monopoly of power by the major families. He was a person with a lot of feelings for the mother planet.
Han Xiao was noncommittal. "While working for me, you can still continue to be the lord of your planet."
"Then I can't go with you even more. I just got elected. How can I leave?" Interpais was in a difficult position. "Can you give me a few years to arrange the affairs here?"
"You're not qualified to negotiate with me now." Han Xiao shook his head and laughed. "Even if you're not in Radbudo, you can still manage it remotely. With my support, even if you're not here, no one can shake your position."
Seeing that he still wanted to say something, Han Xiao stopped arguing with him. He stood up and walked out of the room.
"I don't care how you deal with it. I'll give you three days. When the time is up, you'll come with me. That's it."
Looking at Han Xiao's back, Interpais sat in his seat silently. His face became more and more bitter.
His worst premonition came true. Sure enough, it was easier to invite a god than to send him away. He hadn't even warmed up the lord's seat yet, and he had to move his butt away.
So tired, so regretful … I shouldn't have provoked such a big shot.
…
Three days later, at the ground spaceport.
Interpais carried his luggage and stood in front of the cabin door of the spaceship with a complicated expression.
He sighed secretly, looked back at the female secretary, and said helplessly, "When I'm not here, I'll have to trouble you."
After three days of arrangement, Interpais finally decided to leave his confidant as his spokesperson to help him manage Radbudo remotely. With the support of the Black Star Corps, her personal safety was guaranteed.
Although he was very reluctant, he had no choice.
The female secretary couldn't help but step forward and hug Interpais. She could only watch the situation develop into the current situation and couldn't stop Interpais from being taken away.
"You … be careful." The female secretary had a worried look on her face.
Hearing this, Interpais couldn't help but smile bitterly. If he followed the Black Star, at least he wouldn't have to worry about his safety.
Looking back at the spaceship, Interpais took a deep breath and suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart. He carried his luggage, walked toward the cabin door, and stepped on the unknown future.
…
The Black Star Corps fleet hovering in outer space was far away from Radbudo, and the new planet lord also left. This news was not kept a secret. When the major families heard about it, they were all shocked.
Three days after being elected, he left. What kind of operation is this?
After some investigation, the major families finally found out the situation. They found out that Interpais had become a member of the Black Star Corps and was taken away. The female secretary was left behind to manage him remotely, and they wanted to continue holding the position of planet lord.
Interpais had the support of the Black Star Corps, so the major families couldn't resist. However, Interpais' actions didn't follow the rules. Normally, the local ruler of a colonial planet couldn't join other organizations on the surface. This was to prevent the local ruler from being controlled by other organizations.
The major families discussed in private and decided to use their connections to report this matter to the central government of the civilization. They couldn't deal with Interpais, but the government could. As long as they used Interpais' sensitive identity as a reason, they could start a special plan to remove his position as planet lord and replace him with an official.
In their eyes, although the Black Star Corps was powerful, they didn't have the right to interfere with the internal affairs of a Star System civilization. This method was worth a try.
Since they couldn't afford to offend Black Star, they could only do something about it.
The progress of this civilization had been stagnant for many years. Many of the officials didn't do anything and were easy to deal with. The major families couldn't do anything to Interpais, but they were still quite confident in recruiting a planet lord. The situation wouldn't be any worse than it was now.
After the central government of this civilization learned about this situation, they were instantly put in a difficult position.
This move violated their rules, but they couldn't afford to offend Han Xiao. After some discussion, they could only take measures against Interpais and give him a choice. He could either give up his identity as an army lord and become a planet lord, or he could resign from his position as planet lord of Radbudo.
Interpais wanted to return, but he had no choice. He was also unwilling to give up the position of planet lord, so he could only report it to Han Xiao.
Since he had already poached him, Han Xiao didn't mind increasing the loyalty of the newcomer. He turned around and called the Red Empire.
The effect of this call was obvious. After a few days, this Star System civilization silently retracted the order and acted as if nothing had happened, tacitly agreeing to Interpais' identity.
This time, the major families of Radbudo were completely at their wits' end. Black Star's power made them unable to do anything, so they could only obediently accept their fate.
This Star System civilization was a vassal of the Red Empire and was under the management of the empire. With Han Xiao's position in the dynasty, a single call was enough to get the dynasty to solve this problem.
However, Han Xiao was also clear that this move would only work on the dynasty's vassal civilizations. If it was a normal neutral Star System civilization, they would most likely not have listened to him.
An outsider interfering with the internal management of a civilization would be suspected of supporting a puppet. This violated the universal law of the galaxy and touched the bottom line of a civilization. As a Beyond Grade A ally of the dynasty, his position was indeed extraordinary and he was deeply respected by the Star System civilizations. However, respecting him was one thing, but it didn't mean that the civilization would compromise without principles.
However, the vassal civilizations within the dynasty were different. Their government was deliberately loose, and they followed the Red Empire's lead. The extent of this matter was not enough to make the dynasty lose face.
The dynasty would not affect the relationship between the two sides because of such a small matter. This could be considered Han Xiao's privilege in the Red Empire.
…
Black Star's spaceship, living cabin, Han Xiao's office.
Interpais had already spent some time on the spaceship and adjusted his emotions. At this point, he had accepted his fate. Since he couldn't resist, he could only enjoy it. Coming to a new environment, he decided to work hard for the army.
Today, he was finally summoned by Han Xiao. When he came to the office and saw Han Xiao, the first thing he said was to adjust his position and ask about his job.
"Your Excellency Black Star, what do you need me to do for the army?"
Han Xiao put down the communicator in his hand, looked up at him, and smiled. "You started from scratch and have good management, management, and business vision. I have a job related to the financial group for you."
"This is my old profession." Interpais heaved a sigh of relief.
"Before that, let's meet your future boss."
As he spoke, Han Xiao pressed the communicator, and a remote projection appeared in the room. It was Sylvia.
"I'm the Chief Administrative Officer of the Black Star Corps, Sylvia. You're the Interpais that Teacher mentioned?"
Sylvia sized Interpais up with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Yes."
"Hmm, I've already seen your resume. Your ability is not bad." Sylvia nodded and said politely.
This time, Han Xiao knocked on the table and made the two of them look over.
"Alright, let's get down to business. I'm preparing to set up a subsidiary financial group. It's still in the preparation stage, and I'll be investing a large number of talents in the army."
The Black Star Corps had developed to its current state, and its size was extremely large. It was time to reform its structure. After some consideration, Han Xiao decided to develop some subsidiary forces around the army.
The first force was to borrow the resources of the Black Star Corps to create a subsidiary organization that was purely financial. This would be more convenient in terms of business operations.
This idea was partly inspired by the example of the Limitless Financial Group. On the other hand, it was also to deal with the competition from the Limitless Financial Group.
The methods of the Limitless Financial Group had exposed the weakness of the interests of the alliance. Therefore, Han Xiao wanted to set up a subsidiary financial group to integrate the various subsidiary businesses of the army, digesting the business channels of the partners, and turning them into his own business. This way, he could curb the hostile acquisition methods of the Limitless Financial Group and compete with them.
Sylvia nodded. She looked at Iapetus and spoke in a capable tone.
"I'm temporarily the highest leader of the financial group. Although you're a newcomer, you're a talent personally recruited by the Army Commander, so I'll give you a chance. You don't have to start from the bottom but can directly lead a team and compete with other teams. As long as your performance can be ranked at the top, I'll give you the position of a senior manager of the financial group. Whether you can be promoted or not will depend on your performance. "
The army had a large number of talents, and Interpais was just a newcomer. Han Xiao would not let him directly enter the management level. He could only prove his ability step by step before he could be promoted.
"I understand. That's fair."
Interpais nodded calmly. He was quite confident in business and was not afraid of competition.
After thinking about it, he could not help but ask.
"Then, what's the name of this subsidiary financial group?"
Hearing this, Han Xiao raised his eyebrows, and a mischievous smile appeared on his face.
"Let's call it … the Germinal Financial Group."
