"Li Linghai never really believed in me, just as she never really believed in you, this was just a deal, and I offered a condition that she could not refuse."

Li Yao hugged his arms, his voice full of temptation, and he licked his lips and said, "Money, shining crystal coins, astronomical resources, countless treasures... Our exiled government in Xinghai Republic has nothing else, but these things are, money, lots of money!

"No matter how much Li Linghai hates cultivators, he doesn't hate cultivators' money. Overthrowing the rule of the four major families requires money, and rebuilding the order of the empire requires money. In the new order of the new empire, it still requires money to compete with you "allies" for the highest power. What reason does she have to not cooperate with me?"

“It makes sense.”

Jin Yuyan suddenly realized and nodded, "If it were me, if someone traded crystals that could be filled with a planet, I would also cooperate with him, whether he was a cultivator, an extraterritorial demon or other strange alien life.

"If he had the crystals that were trading enough to fill a whole world, fuck it, I could just believe in the great way of cultivation in the next second!

"The only problem is, didn't you just say that your Firefly has been disrepaired and has scarce resources and can no longer hold on, so you want to come back and surrender? Let me ask, where can you, who are so desperate and beggar-like, have so much money to convince the empire queen?"

Li Yao sweated on his forehead: "This, this--"

Jin Yuyan narrowed her eyes: "Hmm?"

Li Yao swallowed his saliva: "Don't be anxious, let alone stare at me with such questioning eyes. Is it good to put such great pressure on me? Listen to me to explain to you slowly. This matter is very complicated, really, quite complicated, and it takes a slow, slow, and very slow to explain clearly... That's right, our Firefly is indeed disrepair in disrepair, lacks resources, and has been in a down-and-out way, but at the same time we are very rich, and can be said to be rich in the world and rich enough to rival a country. This is not contradictory! Oh, do you, Mr. Jin, you are so smart and so business-minded, don't you even understand such obvious principles?"

Jin Yuyan shook his head: "I don't understand, please continue to explain slowly."

"We, we have no cash, lack the resources needed to repair the starship and feed all the people, but it does not mean that we have nothing else!"

Li Yao slapped his thigh and said, "Coordinates, we have coordinates!"

A glimmer flashed in Jin Yuyan's eyes: "What coordinates?"

"The coordinates of the vast world!"

Li Yao's thoughts were flashing, and infinite brain cells exploded, converging into a surging river. The river "speaks like a river" said endlessly, "You should know that at the peak of ancient civilization, human civilization occupied a total of three thousand worlds. However, with the civil war between ancient civilizations, the rise of the demon clan, the establishment and collapse of the Xinghai Empire, the war became more and more fierce, and the destructive power of magic weapons became stronger and stronger. Countless thousand worlds were destroyed by war, and even their coordinates were annihilated in the long river of history.

"Until now, the Real Human Empire and the Covenant Alliance have combined to control a thousand worlds closer to the center of the Star Sea. All other worlds have become dead tombs, scattered in unknown places outside the Star Sea.

"Although it has long been dead, these worlds have a long-standing atmosphere and highly developed civilization, and even have a very complete industrial foundation and various relics containing secret treasures. As long as they are found, it is very likely to rebuild the atmosphere and ecosystem and restore them to their former prosperity - at least, it is much more convenient and cheaper than finding a resource planet that is not suitable for human survival and forcing settlements to be built, right?

"Since the Xinghai Empire, the people living in the center of the Xinghai have been developing outward, trying to restore the glory of the three thousand worlds in the past. The heyday of the Xinghai Republic is no exception. We sent countless exploration fleets and mastered a large number of astronomical data and new route maps - these things were later taken away by our Firefly, so that the real human empire's external development has to start from scratch. You have spent a whole thousand years and countless resources, and have only pushed the empire's frontier outward a little.

"Until the past one or two hundred years, because the cost of external development was too high, the efficiency of sending "Star Kids" to jump one planet one and one planet to search was too low. In fact, the empire had completely given up external development.

"But, but this is just because you don't have accurate coordinates. It is of course difficult to find a habitable planet among 10 billion planets. However, as long as you have relatively accurate coordinates and can restore the vitality of a vast world, think about it, how much profit does that mean, how many business opportunities are hidden, and how much flood-like money can it bring?"

Jin Yuyan's eyes stared at each other again, their eyes shining like crystal coins, and their voice was filled with the feeling of crystal coins colliding: "How many coordinates have you... mastered the unknown world?"

"No more or less, only a hundred or ten."

Li Yao said, "These coordinates of the Great Thousand Worlds have long been stored in the database of the Xinghai Republic's Foreign Exploration Research Institute. When we evacuated, our initial idea was to escape to the periphery of Xinghai, find several stable Great Thousand Worlds to settle down, spend a thousand years to rebuild our country, and then find a way to counterattack the Central Committee of the Xinghai.

"It's a pity that when we followed the map and searched for these vast worlds, we found that they had long been destroyed by war, all civilizations disappeared, or a world similar to evil land, full of rust and deserts.

"We carry too few resources, and we cannot transform and rebuild such an abandoned world. On the other hand, we are afraid that after we settle down, we will be found by the pursuers of the empire again, and that will be all done!

"We were in panic all day long, searching for worlds one after another, recording their detailed information, marking a brand new waterway map, but in the end we gave up settling there and continued to flee into the depths of the starry sea, until the end, the resources were exhausted and it was too late to turn back.

"So, Deacon Jin, you understand what I mean. We were like discovering countless treasures, but we were so hungry that we were dizzy and lacked the strength to push open the treasure door. If we didn't think of a solution, we would starve to death outside these treasures with milk and honey flowing!"

Jin Yuyan finally understood: "So, do you know where the hundreds of abandoned worlds are, but you lack the first resource to develop them, that is,... start-up capital?"

"Yes, start-up capital, this word is used so well. Otherwise, I am just a martial artist, but you are a business genius!"

Li Yao was so excited that he slapped his thighs, and his voice became more and more tempting, "You know, those vast worlds were once very rich and developed. Many worlds were famous for their blessings in ancient times. Countless predecessors with unimaginable cultivation were practicing there; some worlds were important production and R&D bases of the 30,000-year-old demon dynasty. Laboratories and arsenals can be found everywhere underground, and even the remains of the prehistoric era can be seen everywhere! Unfortunately, we lack the start-up capital to develop them on a large scale, and can only watch the ruins that have been covered for thousands of years. Apart from the "Huahua" drooling, we can do nothing.

"After thinking about it, I don't want to sit and wait for death. If I starve to death with a golden rice bowl, we can only go back to the center of Xinghai to find someone to cooperate, and Li Linghai entered my vision.

"At first I thought she was the leader of the reformist faction, I was open and honest with her. Unexpectedly, behind her, the big devil Wu Yingqi, was still dormant!

"Even if we dedicate all the vast worlds discovered by Firefly in a thousand years to Wu Yingqi, he would not be able to let us go. Since that's the case, I can only escape and escape to the outer world to discover that compared with Wu Yingqi and Li Linghai, you, the leading business overlord of the Real Human Empire, is the deacon of the Wanjie Business Alliance, who started with the Star Sea Trade and asteroids. It seems to be a more suitable partner!

"Come on, Lao Jin, don't hesitate. Let go of each other's prejudices. Whether everyone comes out to cultivate or practice immortality, it's just for the sake of making money! Think about it, if you discover a new world, you can open up hundreds of trade routes and rebuild a world of profits, including real estate transactions, mining and spiritual fields development, and various capitulation fees for interstellar immigration. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk

Jin Yuyan's breathing became obviously rapid.

Even though he tried hard to suppress his heartbeat, what he controlled now was not his original body, and he still showed clues inadvertently.

"Is this true?"

He asked a nonsense.

"I know, without any evidence, it is really hard to gain trust from others."

Li Yao spread his hands and said calmly, "But, please think about it from another perspective. Even Li Linghai and Wu Yingqi believe it, why don't you?"

Jin Yuyan was slightly stunned and fell into deep thought.

"Do you think that with the wisdom of Li Linghai and Wu Yingqi, will they be easily deceived by me? Will they not investigate my words?"

Li Yao said, "I have been working with Li Linghai for more than half a year and it was very pleasant until I accidentally discovered Wu Yingqi's existence, and the two sides had a falling out. It can be seen that the problem lies with them, not with me. If I lie, they would have been killed long ago!"

Jin Yuyan took a deep breath.

"I still think you are lying, but at least, the proportion of your lying has dropped from 10% to 1% - intuition tells me that the Xinghai trade route you mentioned seems to exist. Cooperating with you may really make me rich and wealthy is comparable to a country."
