Chapter 4307, punishment
This incident made Barry Rand deeply moved, and at the same time he also did some self-reflection.
And it caused quite obvious changes in his thinking.
Among them, the biggest change is undoubtedly the recognition of the idea of "a community with a shared future for the universe".
This time it really made him realize it deeply.
At the same time, through the battle against the Soul Eater, Barry Rand also fully realized that in front of the entire universe, a country, even if it is as powerful as their Black Iron Empire, is still weak.
Some things may really require a large number of countries to unite and face them together.
Of course, there is a question mark as to how long Barry Rand's enlightenment after going through the catastrophe and subsequent ideological awareness can last.
After all, it’s not just human beings to heal their scars and forget about the pain.
This time, the Soul-Eating Devil incident was quite big, and the combat power of their Seven-Star Alliance could be said to be dispatched on a large scale.
However, at this stage, this matter has been resolved after all, so there is no need for representatives from all parties to convene a special meeting to discuss this matter.
Let's hold an online meeting and just talk briefly.
Leaving aside the fact that Gao Qian and the others were trapped inside because of the sudden change and could not get out at all, as the first country to discover the existence of the Soul Eater, the Black Iron Empire must be to blame for this incident.
of.
But considering that this was an old thing many years ago, and the Black Iron Empire did not join their Seven Star Alliance before this.
Therefore, there is no need to excessively pursue blame.
Moreover, in this operation, the Black Iron Empire put in a lot of effort, which can be considered as making up for it.
In the end, with Alliance Chairman Ye Tianxiong as the core, all alliance representatives made a decision after a brief discussion to have the Black Iron Empire pay half of the military resources consumed by each country for this operation.
Even if this is the case, added together, it is already an astonishing astronomical figure.
Even a first-class powerful country like the Black Iron Empire might not be able to afford to take it out all at once and must choose to pay in installments.
This is also one of the reasons why the Black Iron Empire was not allowed to pay for all consumption after everyone discussed it.
If the Black Iron Empire needs to pay in full, then the Black Iron Empire may not have to be forced to the point of collapse, flipping the table and leaving.
To put it this way, it’s an exaggeration, but that’s pretty much what it means.
In the case of halving, although the number is still astonishing, Barry Rand also knows that everyone has given him a break.
As soon as this incident came out, he now owed a favor to all the allies present. If he didn't know what was right and what was wrong, it would be a bit unjustifiable.
After confirming the punishment for the Black Iron Empire and the Guyue Empire, after confirming the other party's attitude, they naturally wanted to ask for an explanation from the other party.
After all, if you really want to talk about it, including the Black Iron Empire, they are actually victims. Gao Qian's grandfather who caused this change and led to the birth of the Soul Eater is the culprit of all this!
Of course, Gao Qian's grandfather has been dead for who knows how many years, but if the Black Iron Empire bears half of the blame, shouldn't your Guyue Empire also bear half of it?
But the more troublesome thing now is that the Guyue Empire is not a member of their Seven Star Alliance, so they cannot directly discuss and decide this matter internally like they did with the Black Iron Empire.
We must send envoys to negotiate with the Guyue Empire.
In the eyes of the representatives from all parties, this is undoubtedly a troublesome matter. Different from talking about business and cooperation, this wave is strictly speaking to collect debts, and the other party's negotiating strength is well known to the representatives of all countries.
Well, no one wants to take on this trouble now.
In the end, these guys played a trick and jointly elected Ye Qingxuan as the alliance representative to be responsible for negotiating this matter with the Guyue Empire.
This matter did indeed fall on Ye Qingxuan's head in the end.
"These guys..."
At this moment, Ye Qingxuan, as the party involved, has every reason to suspect that these guys just want to avenge the previous interview.
But she doesn't care anymore, just let's talk! It's just a good opportunity to take this opportunity to talk about some initial cooperation projects between their Ye Chamber of Commerce and the Guyue Empire.
Moreover, during this period of time, the Ye Chamber of Commerce's contacts with the Guyue Empire were actually quite close.
The main reason is undoubtedly because of Gao Qian's special relationship with Ye Chongshan, the third president of Ye's Chamber of Commerce, and the fact that the other party turned out to be the seventh star of the Seven Star Alliance.
By the way, during this process, those members of the Ye Chamber of Commerce who had previously stayed in the Guyue Empire, including Ye Feixing, Li Ke, Xu Ji, and Jessica, have also been officially taken out. At present,
He will be temporarily placed with the Black Iron Empire, and will then return to the base camp with the fleet of their Ye Chamber of Commerce.
When she met Gao Qian again in a short period of time, Ye Qingxuan did not follow his roundabout way. She also knew that this way was not interesting to Gao Qian, so she directly explained her purpose to the other party.
After understanding the situation, Gao Qian nodded simply, saying there was no problem.
There is absolutely no headache that the representatives of various countries have in mind.
In the previous interview, they were talking about cooperation and interests, which even involved their own positions. Gao Qian may not care in his heart, but he is the emperor of a country after all, and he still has a sense of responsibility for the future of the Guyue Empire.
Even taking this into consideration, he could not let the representatives of the various countries let the lions open their mouths.
But what happened this time was different.
Tracing back to the origins, his grandfather can indeed be said to be the culprit. As the emperor of Guyue, he cannot escape the blame.
It was appropriate to give this compensation. Gao Qian had nothing to say.
After that, Ye Qingxuan maintained his efficiency and had a good talk with Gao Qian about some of the current situation in the universe and society, as well as some things that were best not to do, lest Gao Qian and others who had just escaped from the situation were completely unaware of the situation.
Next, cause any unnecessary trouble.
Regarding these, Ye Qingxuan spoke very sincerely, and Gao Qian naturally did not treat her kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, and listened seriously, which made the entire conversation go very smoothly.
Until the end of the conversation...
After closing the cooperation documents that had been sorted out and signed, Ye Qingxuan took a long breath and then looked up at Gao Qian who was sitting there.
"One last thing."
Hearing these words, Gao Qian, who was sitting there, raised her head slightly.
Although Ye Qingxuan has not said anything yet, Gao Qian has already made some guesses about what Ye Qingxuan is about to say, and it can even be said that she has already guessed it to the fullest.
Ye Qingxuan vaguely felt that Gao Qian should have guessed what she was going to say next, but this would not hinder her.
Chapter completed!
