The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

972. Endless Shipyard

While Padmé entered Lot Doud's palace alone to investigate the secret conspiracy of the Interstellar Banking Association, Darth Sidious was standing here in the uninhabited industrial area of ​​Coruscant, standing next to him In front of him was a holographic projection of Count Dooku kneeling on the ground.

"The Interstellar Banking Association has gradually lost control, and the distance between the dead angel and the dead angel is getting closer." Darth Sidious said, "the growing momentum of the dead angel's strength must be curbed."

Earl Dooku said: "This seems to be difficult... I have also conducted some investigations. The relationship between the co-chairman of the Interstellar Banking Association Thorn Hill and the dead angel should be from the era of Hego Damask II. It's just started. It's hard for us to start on this... At least for now, Thorn Hill is on our side."

"Standing on our side?" Darth Sidious said coldly: "The DS-1 plan has not yet raised funds, and the Interstellar Banking Association refused to allocate funds! Then you told me that you are standing on our side side?"

"On this point, Thorn-Hill's explanation is why he invested in building more robot factories and space docks..." Earl Dooku said.

"For example, the Onderon planet that is now fighting against the war?" Darth Sidious sneered.

"this……"

"What are the Interstellar Banking Association and the Trade Federation doing now? Why do they have a lot of money injected into the Trade Federation?"

"A new large dock, but I don't know the specifics." Earl Dooku began to sweat coldly on his forehead.

Darth Sidious said coldly: "Your confederation of independent galaxies is forming small circles one after another. This is proof that you have gradually lost control."

"I will stabilize the situation as soon as possible."

"Whatever they are planning, let the Jedi Order deal with them. Destroy this large shipyard of theirs and let them understand that all their investments must be in my hands in order to succeed!"

"But it affects the course of the war..." Count Dooku wanted to tell.

"The fleet of the Federation of Independent Galaxies has reached the Antal galaxy. This is a very gratifying result." Darth Sidious pointed out.

"I... I see."

"Huh! Don't show me your incompetent side again and again! But now, it seems that I can only help you solve the problem of the Interstellar Banking Association." Darth Sidious said: "You The monitoring of the trade alliance must be strengthened, I don't want them to do anything out of the ordinary. Remember! These alien races are just victims of our great new order! The new order of the galaxy belongs to human beings and powers!"

"As ordered..."

...

Meanwhile, deep in Lot-Dud's palace, Rush-Clovis, Lot-Dud, and a bloated race of gastropods.

Apparently Rush Clovis didn't have any defenses against Padme, and it seemed that because this meeting was so crucial, there were no more people in the palace.

All guards are on the periphery to ensure that no one can get close here.

But Padmé was an exception, she carefully touched the meeting room. Unlike other MPs who lacked exercise and were pampered, Padmé had a very good physique, which was also an important reason why she could follow Anakin around when she was in Tatooine and Geonosis.

Seeing that gastropod race, Padmé's first reaction was the Hutts, but upon closer inspection, he found that the back of the opponent's head was very large, and his body was a circle smaller than the Hutts.

"Thunbak-Tula? A Semisian!" Padmé was startled after seeing the person clearly, "Didn't she already join the Separatism and leave the Republic?"

At this time, I only heard Lott-Dude say: "Now the design and analysis of the endless-class super aircraft carrier has been completed by 45%, and the construction of the space dock can be started."

"We Semirs have enough industrial production capacity and labor force to satisfy endless construction." Tuenbak-Tula said seriously.

"Very well, it seems that you have done a good job." Clovis said proudly with his hands behind his back.

Compared with his infatuated look in front of Padme, he is now full of majesty and oppression, which is the aura that a member of the Interstellar Banking Association should have.

Because behind him is the richest economic entity in this galaxy!

"So... we hope that the next fund will be transferred..." Lott Dude said carefully.

“According to the agreement, we have to wait until 50% of the design analysis is completed before conducting a progress analysis and then transferring funds. Right now, it is not enough.” Clovis said, shaking his head.

"But we are very short of funds now, and if there is no injection of funds, many factories will stop working..." Thunbak-Tula said.

"You can go to Dawn Star, why keep pestering me?" Clovis said.

"Dawn Planet's settlement is carried out with their own No. 4 currency, which is not recognized by the Republic now..." Lott-Dude said in embarrassment, "They have also taken out all their foreign exchange reserves, but still Still not enough."

"Chairman Thorn-Hil said that there is a fund to be provided to the Galactic Republic recently, and perhaps this fund can be used for emergency..." Thunbak-Tula said carefully, rubbing his hands.

Clovis sneered, "Hehe, Thorn Hill is really brave enough to do such a thing. If he is discovered, this will affect our entire Interstellar Banking Association! It seems that, He, the co-chairman, doesn't intend to be the chairman anymore, does he?"

While they were talking in secret, Padmé Amidala, who heard some words and phrases, was extremely shocked, "Endless-class super aircraft carrier? Is this a new type of warship for the separatists? The Interstellar Banking Association was sending funds to Throw it here?!"

She looked at the image of the battleship projected in the holographic projection in front of her, and her heart was cold, "No...you must get this information."

However, at this moment, a passing robot suddenly made a sound at her, and then turned on the scanner to scan.

This was originally a daily detection measure, but it exposed Padmé's location.

The few people over there immediately stopped talking, walked over and blocked Padmé.

"Padmé? Why are you here?" Clovis was surprised.

"I feel a little uncomfortable, and I want to come to you. But there is no one in the palace, it's all robots..." Padmé said in a hurry.

Lott-Dud looked at Padmé in the parliament, and he said sharply: "No! She is eavesdropping on our meeting!! She is a spy for the Republic!! Arrest her!"
