Chapter 353 discusses the importance of paying protection fees to people

When those two people came to Xu Luo with the members of the umbrella, they were a little cramped at first, especially when Xu Luo sat quietly and ignored them, which made them very restrained!

But thinking of the purpose of their visit this time, the leader took a deep breath and straightforwardly introduced their background to Xu Luo

"Hello, dear leader of the umbrella! We are people from the Kalondi civilization. I am Moxido, and the one behind me is little Moxido!"

After hearing his voice, Xu Luo finally came back to his senses, but at this moment he didn't speak, just looked at him quietly.

Seeing Xu Luo start to look at him, Moxido held back the surprise in his heart, and quickly started to tell.

"Because there are some immoral people who are constantly attacking our civilization at this time, so we urgently need help. I heard that you have a powerful new weapon in your hands, so we want to order a batch from you. In terms of price not a problem!"

He didn't say that those who attack his own civilization are members of the umbrella. After all, no one is a fool. If he said this in front of the leader of the umbrella, he would simply cut himself off from others and don't want to shop with them.

"Why should I sell to you?"

After a while, Xu Luo finally spoke, but this sentence made the two of them fall into an ice cave.

Little Moxido glanced at his father and held his breath, not daring to let him make too much noise, for fear of affecting his father's judgment.

Obviously the person sitting opposite was a young man, but for some reason, when facing the other person, it seemed that he was under great pressure, which made him feel frightened.

"I think you should sell us!"

At the beginning, Moxido was also puzzled, but then he thought of the key point, and couldn't help but smile on his face.

After all, if the other party really didn't want to sell to them, they wouldn't have agreed to meet them from the very beginning, not to mention that they should have been driven away after that sentence was said just now, but the fact is that they are still standing still. Here, there is no extra action at all, so what the other party said is just to test himself.

"Dear Umbrella Chief, you are a great predator, and the umbrella team you lead is the most terrifying force in this galaxy, but when you were the Umbrella Chief on the road of predators, what did you do? It's for profit, and now as long as you trade with me, you can get huge benefits without doing anything, since you can get huge benefits, why don't you do it?"

"I sell them to people inside the umbrella, and I can still get huge benefits. Why should I sell them to you?"

Xu Luo flipped through the alchemy notes casually, with a very calm expression.

"But I can bring you even greater benefits! Because my price is higher than theirs, and I can also sell this new type of weapon you have to more civilizations, and the price is higher than what you are selling now It's even more expensive!"

Moxido talked about his own value, and the more he spoke, the more passionate his tone became.

"Nowadays, many civilizations have fallen into the quagmire of war. They have all been attacked by invaders, but they have no ability to deal with them, and the high-level civilizations we have been relying on are also at this time. You are unwilling to help us, so we can only rely on ourselves, but after discovering your new weapon, many people are very excited, so as long as you can buy this new weapon, even if it makes them pay a higher price, Many people are also willing, so I have enough confidence to help you sell these new weapons at a higher price, so that you can get more benefits!"

When he said these words, he really felt the same way. After all, the civilization they were in had been developing honestly, but with the arrival of this group of invaders, their original civilization was directly broken. Tranquility, the battle with these intruders is still secondary, and what is more important is how to end the war is what he needs to consider most now.

After all, the predators left as soon as they left, but how to appease the members of this civilization after the war, and how to deal with the neighbors who are staring at them, are very serious problems.

That's why after he knew that this new type of weapon appeared, he rushed here without hesitation. He just wanted to use this weapon as a deterrent to oppress those neighbors around him, and he didn't dare to do other things.

"Sounds good. I can promise to sell these weapons to you, or I can give you the agency right to sell them for me, but I don't want to sell them if the number of weapons I sell here is small!"

Xu Luo raised his eyebrows, but he didn't make things difficult for him too much. After all, he had the will to bring the other party in front of him at the beginning, and everything he did just now was just to give the other party Just a little psychological pressure.

"I'll buy it! I'll buy as many as you have on hand!"

After hearing Xu Luo's words, Moxido was very pleasantly surprised. He didn't even ask the specific quantity or discuss the specific price. He just asked how much he had and wanted it all.

"Heh, do you know how many weapons I have in my hand?"

After hearing what he said, Xu Luo smiled, but didn't answer. He wanted everything. To put it bluntly, Xu Luo really let go of the horsepower for production, and after they packaged and sold their entire civilization, they couldn't buy it. rise.

"Forehead!"

After hearing Xu Luo's words, Mo Xiduo smiled wryly. Only then did he realize that he was too excited just now, completely different from his usual performance.

After calming down his excited emotions, he finally regained some of his former charm.

"Then Mr. Umbrella First, let me buy five million new-style magic cannons from you first, but I hope that I can order from you at any time later!"

"Five million gates."

Hearing this number, Xu Luo knocked on the table. He didn't expect that the other party would have such courage. He was just a civilization, and he bought five million doors directly. You must know that five million doors is not a small number. With the financial resources of their civilization, they simply emptied the entire warehouse.

But if there are really five million magic cannons for protection, it will not be so easy for even some relatively powerful civilizations to invade them.

Therefore, he appreciates the opponent's choice very much. After all, their entire civilization is now mired in the quagmire of war. Every point of delay is a great loss to them. After making up his mind to directly spend a huge price to buy these magic cannons, it will have the final effect and end the war.

In addition to having these magic cannons, the more important thing is that after the war, they will have a strong deterrent effect on those around them who are staring at them, so that others will not dare to act rashly. This is the most important thing.

Seeing that Xu Luo didn't agree immediately, it made Moxido's heart arouse. He was worried that the other party would reject his request.

In fact, five million doors is already the lowest expectation in his heart. At the beginning, he even wanted to directly ask for 10 million doors, but in the end he was worried that if he asked for too much, it would make the other party feel that he was greedy, so he Only then did I lower my requirements.

"It's just five million doors, I can give it to you right now, but I don't have credit rules here, you can directly give the crystallization of faith, or use any other valuable materials as collateral!"

Xu Luo looked at the person from the Carondi civilization in front of him, but he didn't continue to whet their appetite, and directly agreed.

"I can also promise that I will open the order qualification to you anytime and anywhere in the future. As long as you have money, you can buy from me. Of course, I can also open other businesses here. As long as you pay a sum of money, I can Accept your employment, help you fight, and even protect the safety of your civilization.

I think this business is what you need most in your current situation. After all, buying so many magic cannons is not a small sum of money, but hiring us doesn't need to cost that much! "

After hearing Xu Luo's words, the two of Moxido couldn't help but looked at each other, feeling a little dumbfounded in their hearts.

Unexpectedly, Xu Luo would say such a thing. At the beginning, they imagined that the leader of the umbrella should be a cold and unapproachable person, but what they said now broke all the doubts in their hearts. fantasy.

Who would have imagined that the other party would be able to come up with such an operation.

You send people to attack me, and then you say that you can accept my employment to protect my safety. What kind of shameless person can say such a thing?

When they think that they actually have to buy weapons from the opponent to defend themselves from the opponent's invasion, they feel as if there are a hundred thousand mud horse beasts galloping past in their hearts.

"No, no, no!"

Moxido shook his head again and again.

After all, all the magic cannons belong to you after you buy them, and you can use them for a long time at that time, and you will have enough confidence when you encounter any enemies. It's just that some people have been dealt with. At that time, even the person who protects the umbrella will be able to invade the other party as soon as he walks on the front foot. It is not safe at all.

After the powerful civilization they were attached to ignored them this time, Moxido deeply understood that instead of relying on others, it is better to become stronger yourself. This is the most fundamental.

Seeing that they disagreed, Xu Luo did not express too much. After completing the order this time, he was in a good mood. After all, five million doors is not a small number, and he can also get huge benefits from it. Benefits, not to mention the other party's price, but twice what he offered before.

"Get the money ready, give me the coordinates when the time comes, and I will send the things to you directly!"

Xu Luo opened his mouth lightly, which can be regarded as driving people away directly.

After hearing what he said, the two of Moxido quickly bowed, and then walked out under the leadership of the umbrella member, and in this small illusory space, only Xu Luo was left. one person.

This time, he didn't think about delivering the goods himself. Anyway, there is only one order. When the other party sends the coordinates, he can just send the goods there. In terms of cost and profit, this little effort is nothing at all.

After all, the profit of the five million magic cannons he sold was actually more than that of the ten million ones.

And he knows that this is actually just a good start, and more and more civilizations will find him in the future, wanting to buy these supplies from him.

Fortunately, during this period of time, his goblin workshops have been fully fired, and a large number of engineering equipment have been produced, just waiting for buyers to come to the door, and then sell all these items .

"Father, why didn't we accept the proposal of the leader of the umbrella just now? If only paying a small price, it would be more cost-effective to hire a powerful organization, the umbrella, to help us drive those intruders out? Why pay such a big price and buy some cold machines?"

On the way back, standing on the deck of the starship, little Moxido had some doubts.

In his opinion, it is not cost-effective to pay such a high price to buy the so-called magic cannon. If so, it is actually much more cost-effective to hire umbrella people to help them.

"Do you think the umbrella is a good thing? Have you forgotten who is invading us now? What is the difference between a wolf and a tiger?"

After hearing his son's words, Moxido couldn't help but smile wryly. Maybe he has been busy with work all the time, so he lacked too much teaching for his son, so that now when he grows up to such an age, he unexpectedly To be able to say such childish things.

"You forget that when we were attacked before, when we asked for help from the fifth-level civilization Molodo civilization we have been attached to, the other party ignored us at all and left us to fend for ourselves!

Now even if we hire a protective umbrella to help us drive out those intruders, but the next time the intruders come again, what should we do?

Are we going to hire the Umbrella again to help us? But the next time the umbrella is unwilling to accept our employment or accepts the other party's employment, what should we do?

Have you even thought about what to do when one day we get used to hiring people with umbrellas and letting them protect us, and when the umbrellas come back to invade us one day? "

Moxido's words are filled with deep sorrow, which is the sorrow of their weak civilizations. Even if there are strong people oppressing them, they can only grit their teeth and bear it, but they can't change the current situation. status.

Doesn't he know that the people who hire umbrellas are the most cost-effective? But the question is can the umbrella really protect them? The most fearful thing is that all the root causes are all made of umbrellas.

"You have to know that the power of others is always the power of others. You can borrow it, but you can never own it. When others are unwilling to lend it to you, you can only watch yourself being bullied, but no one can. Help yourself, now I have indeed spent a huge price to buy so many magic cannons, but you have to know that these things seem to be very expensive now, but when we equip these magic cannons on our own In the star field, when any foreign invaders come, we have powerful means to sanction them!

These things belong to us forever after they are in our hands. This is the most fundamental thing.

A civilization, if it doesn’t even have the ability to protect its own people, then it can only become the object of exploitation by others. I hope you will always remember this, but I also hope you don’t understand this! "

Hearing his father's teachings, little Moxido nodded half-understanding. In fact, because he has been protected by his father all this time, he doesn't know much about these dirty schemes at all. If it wasn't for this time In the case of sudden aggression, he didn't even know that there were so many ugly faces in the world.

Seeing the ignorant expression on his son's face, Moxido couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It seems that his son is really not suitable to walk on this path of his own. Maybe let him be a simple soldier. It's easier.

In any case, they finally gained something this time. What he didn't expect was that the leader of the umbrella was so talkative, he sold them five million magic cannons, and even agreed to deliver them directly to their door.

Although the price of five million magic cannons is very scary, and even almost emptied the entire national treasury, no matter what, the so-called bad ship still has three nails.

After all, they are still a civilization. Even if they consumed a lot during this invasion, there are various resources in the star field they are in, and these resources can be used to offset the cost of this time. .

After all, they have a lot of magic ore in the star field where the Kalondi civilization is located. Usually, they rely on these magic energy ores to sell to increase their finances. So although it is a relatively weak civilization, it is extremely rich, which is why they attract the covetousness of those around them.

Of course, in the past, because they had the protection of the fifth-level civilization, others did not dare to act rashly, but now the sudden aggression of these invaders has made them understand that the essence of those five-level civilizations, the other party is reaping benefits They charge more than anyone else, but they don't want to eat noodles when they are really needed.

So it is conceivable that after the deterrence of the fifth-level civilization is gone after this war, the civilizations next to them will inevitably take measures against them. So they have to save themselves.

"Don't look at the fact that we have paid such a huge price now, and feel that it is a loss, but you must know that we are not the only ones who have been attacked now. When the time comes, these things can be resold!"

When talking about this point, Moxido's face was very confident. From the very beginning, he had this idea in mind to fully take on his losses on others and let others bear it for him.

"When we bought a magic cannon, we needed 3,000 Faith Crystals, but even if we paid 5,000, people would rush to buy it. Do you know what this means? We can rely on this to Let us achieve the goal of rising, and even be a second-hand dealer!

In this way, what if we are even a member of the umbrella? You can see that there are many civilizations on the interstellar world that have joined the Umbrella Group, and after joining the Umbrella Group, they have not been exploited, but have gained great benefits."

When Moxido said these words, he never thought that his son would understand him at all. He said these words to cheer himself up. Now he is very confused about how to present the future. He has a A hunch, now the novice God's Domain is about to blow up.

This gust of wind was swept up by the protective umbrella, but he couldn't imagine how many forces would be involved in it in the end.

There is such a new type of weapon in the Umbrella Hand, will he not want to sell it? During this process, whether he wants to involve more people in the vortex of war is unpredictable, but it is obvious that this new type of weapon is very cost-effective of.

Like those magic cannons loaded on goblin airships, the price is very high, and the cost performance is very low. Now this new type of magic cannon completely beats those magic cannons.

After such a new type of weapon appears on the market, I don’t know how many people will be crazy. At this time, what he is thinking is whether he can persuade the leader of the umbrella to give him the full power of agency. , even if it is just an agent, he can completely rely on this East to earn huge benefits for himself, and even realize the take-off of their civilization.

As long as he can make his civilization take off, so what if he joins the umbrella? After all, the umbrella is a gold-lettered signboard, and it spares no effort to protect any of its members. Compared with paying protection fees to those five-level civilizations, the other party ignores them when they are in danger. Collect protection fees, but be more humane, because the purpose of the umbrella is that when their members are threatened, they will spare no effort to protect them.

Anyway, the protection fee has to be handed over, so it doesn’t matter who you hand it over to. The most important thing is that the person who has collected the protection fee must play its due role and protect its own safety. This is the most important thing. of.
