2058 Towards War (Part 1)
Body enhancers, broken limb repair fluids, even growth potions, strengthening potions, and so on. Even in the black market, there was a market for biological weapons such as Foragers and Tyrants.
What was even more peculiar was that even under the monopoly of the Trade Alliance, the robot industry of the Guardian Planet actually exploded into a very impressive market effect. The main reason was actually because of mechanical lives!!
During a market research, Lee Sung-ho, who was in charge of business, received feedback that some users had very high evaluations of the robots sold by the Guardian Planet. The reason was that these robots were all injected with mechanical lives! This was because a small portion of the robots sent by the Guardian Planet were injected with Mechanical Lives, mainly to allow these Mechanical Lives to gain more experience. And these mechanical lives were smart, flexible, and knew how to create characteristics that other robots did not have.
Lee Sung-ho keenly seized this business opportunity. After he discussed with Tang Yu, he simply took out the robots injected with mechanical lives and sold them. And because there were only a few hundred million mechanical lives backup on the Guardian Planet, they adopted a premium strategy. Every robot spared no effort in packaging and directly sold at a sky-high price!
After proving that these mechanical lives indeed had far more intelligence than ordinary robots, this kind of robot was very popular. Moreover, the Guardian Group also launched a customization service, which could customize the functions, appearance, personality, database, and other aspects of the robot according to the customer's needs. This kind of robot was once as high as 100,000 credits, which could even buy a small spaceship!
This was a completely cost-free transaction because the data of these mechanical lives could be returned to the Guardian Planet's database at any time if they wanted to. It was not that these robots had not been disassembled for research, or even reprogrammed, but without exception, these people only got a blank robot. It could even be said that through the eyes of these mechanical lives, the local customs and even some secret information of each planet would be continuously transmitted to the Guardian Planet's database!
There was another aspect in the mechanical field that shone brilliantly — mercenaries and bounty hunters. Some of the more powerful mechanical lives, after asking for instructions from Tang Yu, formed some mercenary teams and bounty hunter teams, and were active in the peripheral areas of Tatooine, Hoth, and Hutt Space. These mechanical lives basically had no desires. Other than buying some upgrade parts for themselves, all other income was handed over to the treasury, and there was actually a small amount of income.
Just like this, time gradually passed in the intense preparation for war.
…
Lasax System, Lasax 4, the capital of the Confederation of Independent Systems and the seat of parliament.
"We must pass and implement this bill! You must know that the Republic has exploited us for too long! How many spaceships on the hyperspace route are filled with the hard-earned money of the people of the Central and Outer Ring Galaxies? With the nourishment of these routes, the Republic will only become more and more powerful! The Kuat Motor Dock and Lundili Company's giant manufacturing factory did not stop for even a minute. Huge warships were being built one after another! In the future, these warships will become the butcher's knife that reaps the lives of our people! "Peacock shouted from the podium.
The parliament hall of the Independent Star System Confederacy was rectangular in shape. Its structure was similar to the British Parliament, but the scale was much larger. Peacock's speech attracted a lot of support from the citizens. Many of the councilors cheered loudly in support of Peacock.
Peacock waved her hand and the bill appeared on the giant screen in the middle of the meeting hall - Privateer Bill! Seeing these words, one, Peacone of one on one on as, one on one on one, one of one of one one of Two.
"The enemy is strong, and we are weak. This is a fact! The oppression of the Central and Core Sectors of the Republic has allowed them to accumulate an astonishing amount of wealth and power! But we must understand one thing! Although our technology and industrial strength are not as good as theirs, the number of star systems and population we have is ten times that of theirs! Without the transportation of resources and raw materials from the Central and Outer Rings, the core of the Republic will soon be paralyzed! So, we must truly cut off the artery of the Republic! "
"This is the meaning of the Privateer Bill! Every galactic pirate, smuggler, or bounty hunter who is willing to attack the Republic and has achieved the corresponding results will be granted a privateer license! Their plundering of the Republic's fleet is legal, and they will receive our protection! As long as they hand over a portion of their privateering to us, they will be able to exchange for our protection! They will be able to resupply on our planet! They will be able to move freely in our controlled areas without being wanted! And if the Republic's fleet dares to openly pursue these privateers, they will face the powerful retaliation of our navy! "
"We don't have to pay anything! All I need is this permit!! " Peacock picked up a paper document from the table. "But we can give the Republic the fiercest and most fatal blow! And when the Republic cannot endure the pain of blood loss, we are absorbing their blood to strengthen ourselves! When the Republic's exploiters want to retaliate, then it is time to give them a real gift! War! "
"Woah! War! War! "
"Implement the Privateer Bill!"
"Let all the exploiters starve to death!"
Hearing the shouts of these supporters, Peacock's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. She had now completely immersed herself in her role — the messenger of war! Amidst the countless cheers, Peacock turned her head to look in the direction of the parliament seats and nodded slightly.
Over there, the representative Tuenbak-Tula, who had also returned to the Independent Star System Confederation, stood up and said loudly, "The Samiles support the Guardian Planet and support Representative Peacock's bill!"
"The Rodians support Representative Peacock's bill!"
"The Ferlin Planet supports Representative Peacock's bill!"
"The Mahlani Planet supports the Privateer Bill!"
"…"
Count Dooku, who was standing at the highest seat, looked at Peacock with approval and nodded. He then announced the voting data in front of him and said loudly, "Then the bill is passed! The Privateer Bill will be implemented from today onwards! Let every galactic pirate! Every smuggler! Every bounty hunter! Let them all become the enemies of the Galactic Republic! "
Amidst the deafening cheers, Peacock stood in the middle of the parliament, looked around proudly, and then bowed in the direction of Count Dooku.
