2201, Sacoria's Triumvirate (Top)
Nothing could move a person's heart more than money. If there was, it could only mean that money was not enough.
Chen Gang had countless black market orders from the Independent Star Federation, ranging from food to daily necessities to blasters and ores, and even orders for hyperspace engines, turbolaser cannons, and shield generators. With Tang Yu's current position in the Independent Star Federation, it was easy for him to get these orders, and the quantity was large enough to move the greedy merchants of Corellia.
Most importantly, most of these orders were actually higher than the market price, or even higher than the black market price. The difference was made up by the Guardian Planet. As for why Tang Yu was so rich, it was very simple. It was because the Guardian Planet's current economic system was independent of the entire Milky Way. Although the Guardian Planet was also circulating Galaxy Credits, their previous currency was still in use. Also, because the planet was completely self-sufficient, the real cost of various products was extremely low. Therefore, when Tang Yu did business with other planets, he would always have a trade surplus.
As a result, the orders in Chen Gang's hands were very valuable. In a few days, he mingled in the upper class of Corellia's society and made friends with more of the upper class. In Corellia, a Sector that focused on trade, his identity in Coruscant was only a stepping stone to move Lord Eklesi. After making use of him to get to know people of a higher class, his real identity as a broker became even more popular.
Corellia's rich and powerful business tycoons naturally had their own connections, including those that could open up trade with the Independent Star System Confederation. However, when it came to a huge order like Chen Gang's, there was really nothing they could do. During this period of time, Chen Gang's activities gradually and silently set off a wave of anti-war and free trade among the upper class of Corellia.
Yes, if there was money to be made, why fight a war? It was not good to go to war. The trade routes were also cut off, and they had to pay high war taxes. Most importantly, because of the wealth of Corellia Sector, they had to take out their own wealth to support the poor who could not even put on their pants! Why!!
Dissatisfaction had been there for a long time, but Chen Gang had sprinkled a handful of salt on it. Apart from these benefits on the surface, under Tang Yu's secret arrangements, a large number of pirates began to gather on the trade routes of Corellia, causing the merchants of Corellia to suffer unspeakably. There was no doubt that Tang Yu was one of the largest pirates in the Milky Way. Even if he wasn't the largest, he would at least be considered one of the largest.
The rogue forces that Zhou Qing had built up on Tatooine, as well as the Zane Financial Group that Taber Zane had built up on Nar Xada, were all powerful pirates. Not to mention the fact that they had not participated in any direct battles recently, so they were happily working for the Predator Fleet!
Corellia's own security fleet had been mobilized due to the war, and only a few old spaceships were left. Sometimes, they were not even a match for the pirates. As for the Kurofune? As soon as the Defense Department's fleet heard that a merchant fleet was attacked by a Kurofune, they would immediately hang up and pretend not to hear anything.
The Republic's fleet had suffered heavy losses in the recent battles. In the Battle of Mulkana, they had lost over a hundred warships, and those were all Hunter class warships! They naturally did not have the manpower to encircle the pirates. Furthermore, most of the pirates were now hidden in the Hutt Dimension, so the Republic's fleet could not reach them. They wanted to eliminate those annoying guys, but they did not want to offend the Hutts and push them towards the Independent Galaxy Confederation, so they could only sit back and watch.
This situation made the merchants of Corellia feel even more hatred for this war!
To Chen Gang, the data of the gravitational wave anomaly they had discovered on planet Corellia had already been submitted, but it did not cause any waves. But Chen Gang understood that everything he was doing now, be it the orders, the brokers, or the pirates, were all laying the groundwork. The real storm was brewing!
About a week later, one night, a man dressed in black and wearing a mask suddenly came to visit. His words were simple — the Sacoria Triumvirate wants to see you.
Chen Gang and Shi Mingdong looked at each other. They knew in their hearts that the main character was here!! So they followed the man in black to the landing platform and boarded a shuttle that had been prepared beforehand. Then, they were put on black masks, and the shuttle took off, flying to a mysterious location.
After who knew how long, Chen Gang, Shi Mingdong, and Talon Calder were forced to sit down on the sofa, and the black masks were pulled off. Chen Gang was experienced. When he realized that he was sitting on a sofa and not a cold stool, he knew that it was possible!
When they opened their eyes, they found that they were in a very spacious conference room. The furnishings were very simple. There was only a conference table, three single sofas, and a few decorative potted plants. In the direction of the huge viewing window opposite them, they could see the endless starry sky. It seemed that this place was in outer space, and there was no celestial body nearby. Maybe it was a spaceship?
At this time, the three projection devices in front of them flashed, and three figures appeared. The holographic projection of these three people was very large, giving people great psychological pressure. At the same time, all three of them were shrouded in shadows, and only their silhouettes could be seen.
Chen Gang looked carefully. The person in the middle should be a human male. The one on the left was tall and thin, and the one on the right was short. Combining the information obtained from the setting of Star Wars, Chen Gang understood that the one on the left should be a Selonia. This race looked a bit like a standing otter, and the one on the right should be a Delar. They were short and looked a bit like a raccoon.
And the Sacoria Triumvirate, the most powerful organization in the Corellian Sector, was built with a human, a Delar, and a Selonia as the core. They also represented the three most important races in the Corellian Sector.
The discovery of the anomaly in the gravity of Planet Corellian attracted the attention of the Triumvirate!
At this time, the human in the middle spoke. His voice was obviously modified. "Talon Calder, the smuggler organization that first followed George Kadas. After Kadas washed his hands of the business, he took over his smuggling organization and continued to smuggle goods using Planet Mokeler as a base. Shi Mingdong, one of the members of Kadas's team. He has super strong sword skills, and is considered to be no weaker than a Jedi. He has been following Talon Calder. As for you, Chen Gang, although your information is very little, you are definitely not the Minister of Transportation of the Republic. That is just a title. "
The Selonia on the left said, "But you can get a lot of orders from the Separatists, which means that you have deep connections over there. So I'm very curious. What is your purpose in coming to Corellian? "
The Delar on the right also said, "You investigated Planet Corellian under the guise of archaeological exploration and obtained data on the gravity anomaly. What do you know?"
"Speak!!!" The three of them roared together. Under the effect of the voice changer, their voices were deafening.
