The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

1598: Insatiable Greed

"Conditions?" Lila Blissex raised her eyelids, feeling amused in her heart.

You must know that not long ago, Onana Quarter specially called her to the central hall of Quarter, and showed her a set of masquerading, but now, she asked her in turn.

"What conditions do I dare to put forward? Just do my best for the Kuat Power Shipyard." Lila sarcastically said.

"Now we are on the same ship!" Onana Quarter slammed her hands on the table and leaned towards the screen. "Don't forget, the warships that are currently fighting on the front lines are also warships designed by you! Once the reputation of the Quarter Power Shipyard is discredited, can you survive alone? Now that you have proposed the Executor-class Star Destroyer plan, the design and construction costs of hundreds of billions, looking at the galaxy, is there another person who can give it to you?"

"So I don't have any conditions." Lila Blissex said indifferently: "If this campaign is successful, it will be good for us, isn't it? My fiancé Dunn Wessex has already agreed to see you, so there is no need to come to me. I will finish the hyperspace stabilizer on schedule."

She was emphasizing the word fiance, but she was actually emphasizing her own status that was different from the past.

"Very well, I will have a good talk with Governor Dunn." Onana Quarter's face was a little gloomy, but she still nodded and closed the communication after a few polite words.

After the communication was turned off, she immediately cursed, "Lila, you bitch! You bastard!"

condition? In fact, the more Lila said at this time that she had no conditions, the more she was playing a hooligan. The price has already been paid, this hyperspace stabilizer is it.

Regardless of Lila Blissex's nice words, she will finish the project on schedule... But in fact, this is the latest achievement of the Hyperspace Research Department of Kuat Power Dockyard, and has nothing to do with Lila! She just came here to supervise a worker and hang up a job, and then just quietly took the credit for the hyperspace stabilizer into her hands.

For this battle with an uncertain future, the invention and construction of a hyperspace stabilizer is itself a guarantee to keep the lower limit. Even if the battle fails, with this credit in hand, at least it won't be too much blame.

So acquiescing to leave this project to Lila is actually the condition given by Onana Quarter.

But even so, Lila didn't need any conditions. Is this considered hooliganism? This has two meanings. First, the conditions you gave are not enough. Second, you can't give me what I want.

The more polite Lila spoke, the sicker Onana-Quat felt. To put it bluntly, Lila Blissex was given such a large project as the hyperspace stabilizer, but what he got in exchange was only a chance to negotiate with Dunn Wessex!

On other occasions, the funds involved in this project are at least 50 billion credit points! And now, the authorship of this project has been handed over to Lila. For Lila, money is secondary, and it is impossible to give all the proceeds of this project to her. But the reputation brought here is a great benefit.

At this time, Onana Quarter could only go to Dunn Wessex again, and negotiate terms with the governor of the star region who was trusted by Speaker Palpatine, so as to obtain the military's permission to let them participate in the battle of the Model star region.

However, to her surprise, Dunn Wessex was quite easy to talk to, and he agreed to Onana Quarter's request very easily, with few conditions.

The first is an investment in the planet Palin Minor. To put it bluntly, it is a bribe of money. For this, Onana Quarter and Dunn didn't even discuss the amount. They both knew the approximate number that was most appropriate. Generally, it is several hundred million credit points. For Onana, money is not a problem.

The second is to give the Ninth Army a separate order for warships. This thing is actually quite normal, almost all star governors will order some warships separately to expand their own strength, after all, they hold the tax revenue of an entire legion, and it is very easy to buy some warships. This is equivalent to a private soldier.

By the way, not only the Governor of the Star District, but also many powerful planets will also order some warships individually. It's just that a single planet has limited strength, and generally buy second-hand warships or small and medium-sized warships. These warships are the origin of the local defense fleet.

So the Speaker of the Republic, Schiff Palpatine, nationalized the local defense fleet before. In fact, it was not as simple as integrating the army, but directly took away the warships that the planets paid for themselves! This is no different from Ming Qiang.

The third condition is a bit more subtle. Dunn-Wessex said that due to political positioning issues, he could not take on the battle publicly. He asked Onana Quarter not to involve him and the Ninth Army in the course of this campaign. Of course, if the battle is a big success, the Ninth Army will not jump out to claim credit.

On the surface, it seemed that Dunn Wessex had put forward this condition to protect himself. It's like now that you are looking for a relationship to do things, then the relationship you are looking for naturally hopes that you can do things quietly, and it is best that no one else knows.

Although Onana Quarter also felt a little strange, she didn't have many choices now. So, she agreed.

Dunn Wessex was also blunt. He told Onana Quarter that the authorization from the Supreme Strategic Command would be issued tomorrow. And he will also arrange for some retired senior military officers and some top students of the military academy to go to Kuat Planet in their own name to provide support for this campaign.

Onana Quarter was full of joy that she had achieved her goal, but she didn't see the sneer at the corner of Dunn Wessex's mouth.

That's right, if you think about it carefully, you will find that the third condition is the most dangerous one!

On the surface, this condition is Dunn Wessex picking himself out, but in fact, he can also enjoy the fruits of victory in the battle through Lila Blissex. Onana Quarter, on the other hand, had to bear the responsibility for this battle. Once something went wrong, she would be the one to bear the anger of the Galactic Republic!

And by then, Lila-Blissex might even go a step further! Although she doesn't have the reputation to become Quart of Quart, it is entirely possible to become a pivotal presence in the Quarter Power Dock! At that time, she even has the confidence to influence the decision-making of Kuat Power Dock!

That's right! Of this pair of men and women, one said no conditions, and the other said that it would be good to simply give some money, but in fact their conditions were more greedy than anyone else!

What they want is the Kuat Power Dock!
