The Hutt Space, the Hutt's mother planet Nahta, Nar Shada, the 'Smuggler's Moon'.
In a magnificent building, a man with grey hair draped over his shoulders was striding towards his office. He was wearing an expensive white mink fur cloak. Although he looked very young, his sinister face, which was half covered by his long hair, was filled with arrogance and viciousness. He was Taber Zane, the leader of the powerful Zane Financial Group in PNSR. If there was a ranking of the most influential people in PNSR, Taber Zane would be at least in the top five! The Zane Financial Group's influence was too great. They had businesses everywhere, whether it was in the dark or in the dark. Those industries that did not show their talents during the war were incomparably powerful!
Beside him was a Talotai tribesman with light green fur and a bird's beak. He carried two huge Z-shaped blades on his back, and a ferocious aura emanated from him.
When he entered his office, Taber Zane plopped down on the soft sofa and propped his legs up on the table. His leather shoes were made from the skin of a ferocious creature on Tatooine, the Krayt Dragons. They were covered in barbs and were even wrapped in metal. They were gorgeous but not terrifying. No one would doubt that a kick from him would dig out a large piece of flesh from the man's body.
"Tang Yu's demands are getting more and more excessive! Supporting PNSR with all our might look glorious, but in reality, we are exposing all our businesses to the public!! Does he want us, the Zane Financial Group, to be law-abiding citizens? Fuck him!! Did he forget that I was the one who found Gu Li!! It was me!! " Taber Zane cursed as soon as he sat down. This office was built with the best soundproofing materials and the most advanced signal jamming device. Not a single word could be heard outside.
"Maybe that's what Tang Yu is thinking. He wants us to be honest citizens," the Talotay said slowly. His tone was very strange. After all, it was indeed difficult to speak human language with a bird's beak. This was also one of the reasons why the Tarotans rarely interacted with other races in the Milky Way.
"That son of a bitch …" Taber Zane cursed in slang. "This can't go on! Otherwise, everything we have will be emptied out by Tang Yu! Fen, have you arranged for Tang Yu to come to Nar Xada next month? "
"Tang Yu has agreed. He will come to Nar Xada on the 7th of next month to discuss the rebuilding of PNSR's economic system. I heard that the governor of the Enterprise Alliance, Passel Argent, will be coming with him. "This Talotay clansman was called Uray Fen, and he was Taber Zane's trusted aide.
As a matter of fact, after the Zane Financial Group began to grow, Taber Zane was gradually dissatisfied with his position being controlled by Tang Yu. He began to privately build his own force. Uray Fen was a powerful and loyal warrior he had recruited. Since a year ago, he had been in charge of Taber Zane's personal bodyguard.
Although Tang Yu had appointed Catherine Weaver and Cameron Phillips to assist Taber Zane and monitor him, Taber Zane used his genius management skills and keen insight to gradually alienate them and push them out of the core power of the Zane Financial Group. As for the immature love he had for Jane Connor, he had hidden it deep in his heart as they met less and no longer mentioned it.
The real turning point of the Zane Financial Group's expansion was the artificial robot Gu Li. She was the personal assistant of Black Sun's leader, Prince Xizor. In her database, there were a large number of industries directly controlled by Prince Xizor. As the ambitious and ruthless person who brought Black Sun to its peak, Prince Xizor constantly wanted to turn the entire Black Sun into his own private property. Therefore, he used all kinds of tricks to embezzle such a shocking amount of industries.
After Prince Xizor's death, these industries only existed in Gu Li's database. Gu Li fled as soon as she learned of Prince Xizor's death. It was naturally impossible for a robot to gain recognition and control those industries. Therefore, if Gu Li disappeared just like that, these industries would still belong to Black Sun. As time passed, Prince Xizo's chess pieces would also have other ideas, and this industry would collapse. However, Taber Zane finally found Gu Li. He obtained some possible locations of Gu Li from Tang Yu. Then, he spread out his search and finally found Gu Li.
At that time, Taber Zane didn't know that there was such data in Gu Li's database. He only followed the instructions and sent her to the Guardian Planet. About three days later, Gu Li came to Nar Xada alone from the Guardian Planet and joined the Zane Financial Group. She also gave all the industries left behind by Prince Xizor to Taber Zane.
Taber Zane didn't know why Gu Li, who was fiercely resisting before, became as obedient as a kitten after three days. He only thought that Tang Yu reprogrammed her and didn't take it to heart. However, this huge amount of various industries caused his eyes to turn bloodshot in an instant! There were all kinds of underground casinos, nightclubs, bars, and even spice (drugs in the world of Star Wars) growing and selling chains, and so on! If he wanted to estimate the value of these industries, it might be worth trillions of credits!
It was precisely because of the acquisition of these industries that the Zayen Financial Group's strength had increased greatly. As a result, Black Sun once again suffered a heavy blow. Now, in the entire Milky Way, the underworld forces of Black Sun and the Zayen Financial Group were evenly matched. It was also because of the accumulation of power that Taber Zane had some other ideas.
His eyes flickered with an ominous glint as he said fiercely, "Tang Yu has many top-notch experts under him, but most of them are not by his side! As long as we can kill him, the Zane Financial Group can completely regain our freedom! Remember, robots are absolutely not to be trusted! Don't arrange for any robots to be at the scene! "
Fern nodded and replied, "I've already made arrangements. 15 of my people have already infiltrated Nar Xada. None of them are weaker than me. When the time comes, there will be another 1000 desperadoes at the scene. Unless Tang Yu brings an army over, he won't stand a chance!"
At this moment, the office door was suddenly kicked open! Taber Zane reacted quickly. He jumped up and drew his gun. Ouray Fern also took out the two Z-shaped broadswords from his back. When he looked up, he saw a woman whose appearance was so beautiful that it was impeccable! Her jet-black hair hung down to her calves. Her body was curvaceous and graceful. On her hands, two golden bracelets formed from light were slowly rotating.
"Tang Jiu! Why are you here! What's the meaning of barging in like this? "Taber Zane immediately recognized the person. He asked loudly.
Tang Jiu said expressionlessly, "Your people don't want me to come over, so I had to be a little more forceful."
Taber Zane's face immediately turned gloomy. "What did you do to my people?"
"Killed them all," Tang Jiu said calmly. Tang Jiu said lightly. He paused for a moment before adding, "A total of 2,432 people, 17 fighter jets, and two gunboats." Her tone was very calm, completely devoid of any emotion that one might feel after destroying an entire army single-handedly.
Taber Zane took another two steps back and roared, "You actually killed my men!! I'm working for Tang Yu! What right do you have to do that?! "
"Tang Yu said that it's time for the Zane Financial Group's general election. It's time for you to retire," Tang Jiu said seriously.
"You're f * cking kidding me! When did he say anything about the Zane Financial Group's general election rules?! "Taber Zane asked sternly.
"Tang Yu said it. To be precise, he said it three hours ago," Tang Jiu replied seriously.
"So, you're planning to burn the bridge after crossing the river … I want to see Tang Yu!" Taber Zane said.
"Burn the bridge after crossing the river? No. Tang Yu's words should be 'kill the dog when the rabbit is dead'. He also specifically mentioned that for people like Taber Zane, killing them after using them is the best way. So, I'm here to kill you. " As soon as Tang Jiu finished speaking, Ulei Fen's two huge Z-shaped broadswords chopped down on her head!
But in the next second, Fen looked at Tang Jiu, who was standing motionless in front of her, in horror. His two super-alloy dual blades, coupled with the Tarot Race's unique secret technique, could even cut an armored vehicle in half with a single slash! But now, the woman in front of her, who was only 1.6 meters tall, did not even move an inch!
Tang Jiu pushed Ulei Fen to the side, as if he was impatiently pushing away a piece of trash that was in his way. He then walked toward Taber Zane step by step. Ulei Fen jumped up from behind her and slashed at Tang Jiu with her two broadswords, but she could not stop Tang Jiu at all! Seeing this, Taber Zane's face was as white as a sheet of paper!
…
"There's still no news from Jane Connor," Peacock pushed open the door and came to Tang Yu's side.
"She's staying on Coruscant. There's only one possible place," Tang Yu answered.
"Aren't you worried? If she really went to Darth Sidious to find the power of the dark side, she might be turned into a killing machine by Sidious! "Peacock frowned.
Tang Yu smiled and said, "Hehe, if there's anyone in the entire Lanxiang Team and the entire Empire whose heart is as unshakable as a mountain, it's definitely Jane. The things she saw in the river of time were far more than we could imagine. If Darth Sidious thinks he can change Jane's mind, then he's making a huge mistake! "
"I'm a little worried. What I said to her before has agitated her." Peacock's face was full of worry. When Jane Connor was defeated by Dinessa and almost killed, Peacock had tried to guide her to the right path, but now it seemed that he had overdone it.
Tang Yu shook his head and said, "Jane Connor chose Darth Sidious over Master Yoda, which means that she saw the reason for her choice in the river of time. All I have to do is believe in her, believe in every member of the Lanxiang Team. Do you still remember our experience in the X-Men world? "
The expression on Peacock's face was suddenly replaced by endless tenderness. She walked up and hugged Tang Yu, saying softly, "I remember … Of course I remember … Even when I was controlled by Charles, you always believed in me …"
Tang Yu patted Peacock's soft hand and said with a smile, "Jane will definitely give us an answer when the time is right. Now, we still have a lot of things to do."
A smile appeared on Peacock's lips. "Tang Jiu has killed Taber-Zane, so how do you plan to deal with Black Sun?"
"There's no need to 'deal' with them. For a gang, the system is their biggest enemy. Be it Black Sun or the Zane Financial Group, the soil for their survival is the previous Galactic Republic and Federation of Independent Star System's lax domestic system. But now, be it the Galactic Empire or PNSR, they are not doing so well. Therefore, whether it was burning the bridge after crossing the river or cooking the dog after the rabbit was dead, the existence of a person like Taber Zane was the greatest challenge to PNSR's national system. So, he has to die. "
"What about the Hutt? Will you deal with them the same way? "Peacock asked.
"Their situation is different. The Hutt Dimension will temporarily be an autonomous territory. This is also the solution that Count Dooku and I discussed." Tang Yu shook his head. "No matter what, we can finally relax now."
As he said that, he lightly drew a line in the void, and all the lights in the office suddenly went out. Then, a holographic star map that covered the entire office was projected, and on it, three different areas were marked with different colors.
The territory of the Galactic Empire included the entire Core Circle, the Inner Circle, and two-thirds of the Central Circle Star Zone. Only a small portion of the Outer Circle Star Zone still had some power. They had the most developed economy and the most powerful industry.
The territory of the 5-Star Alliance was very small. It only dug out a small piece of the Galactic Empire's Core Circle, and then followed the Corellian Sea Route all the way to the Outer Circle in the 5 o 'clock direction of the planar star map. This narrow and long area was the Corellian Star Zone, and a total of more than 30 star systems had all joined the 5-Star Alliance. Although in terms of area of control, the Corellian Merchants had a business system that covered the entire Milky Way Galaxy. Almost everywhere they opened their companies, trading posts, and mines, so their economic strength was not to be underestimated.
At the same time, to make up for the lack of domestic labor and military strength, the 5-Star Alliance used a large number of robots. And PNSR, with a wave of their hand, sold the countless B-1 battle robots that the Trade Federation had shut down in bulk, and made a lot of money.
On the other hand, the Pan-Milky Way National Socialist Republic, or PNSR, occupied almost the entire Outer Circle Star Zone and one-third of the Central Circle Star Zone. They also had an enclave in the Core Circle, the Lendili Star System. However, this so-called 'enclave' was only seen on the star map. Because of the existence of the hyperspace route, the connection between the Lendili Star System and PNSR was not affected at all. Moreover, compared to Coruscant, the Lendili Star System was closer to the 5-Star Alliance's Corellian Star System, so PNSR could also support the Lendili Star System through the 5-Star Alliance.
PNSR had a vast territory of thousands of star systems, the largest population, the largest control area, and the richest resources. However, the technology and industrial level of the star system was generally relatively backward, which was also the main aspect that restricted them. But in the long run, PNSR's development potential was definitely very huge.
