It was Tang Xiao's wedding manager Jarno's idea to hold the wedding at this time, because she said that if she waited until Lendili's affairs were settled before marrying Adele Ulan, the wedding would be real.
It was like a transaction, and in this transaction where it seemed that the money was paid and the goods were delivered, Tang Xiao seemed to be the inferior party.
Because one thing that must be made clear is that this time it was Lundili and the Ulan family who came to beg Tang Xiao, not the other way around.
So now, coming to such a wedding in the midst of war has become an act to make the Ulan family bow their heads and submit - yes, this is also an exchange of interests.
Although Banjira Ulan was a little reluctant, things had reached this point and he had to bow his head.
He has openly fallen out with the Galactic Republic, and now his only support is separatism, the Confederation of Independent Systems, the Dawn Planet, and Tang Xiao.
He gave up his family's beloved youngest daughter, and tied the interests of his family and company to Tang Xiao, taking a step forward that would mean 180 years of family development history over the past 25,000 years.
That step where you make a big turn.
Although there is still a lot of room for maneuver in confirming Adele Ulan as the first heir to the family and company, it does not mean that the family and company are really handed over to Tang Xiao, but after all, it has come to this point
Here, there is no turning back.
For Tang Xiao, he ended the wedding hastily and rushed to the space port immediately, preparing to take the shuttle to the planetary defense fleet. He also had to ensure that this fleet was under his control.
Bangila Ulan was also very busy. Tang Xiao told him that he must gain control of the orbital defense platforms around the planet Rendili. To do this, he must get enough support at the shipbuilders' conference.
The Shipwrights Conference is actually a parliament-like organization within Rendilli Interstellar Power Company.
When the Galactic Republic was first established, Rendili Interstellar Power Company was just a shipyard, and then it achieved its current scale through continuous development and mergers.
When they first started their business, the ancestors of the Ulan family would hold meetings in the warehouse with the owners of several factories, workshops and shipyards owned by them, and everyone would discuss the next shipbuilding plan together.
What kind of ship to build, and how to build it. There is no advanced quantum auxiliary device, no super artificial intelligence that can calculate countless times per second, there are just countless drawing tools, basic computer mainframes and the rough hands of shipwrights that are full of the smell of engine oil.
That's how they were. Twenty-five thousand years ago, when mankind had just entered the starry sky, they hammered out the Republic's first-generation warship hammer by hammer.
Twenty-five thousand years have passed, and the boatmen's conference that was once held in a warehouse has now become a top summit where a wave of hands means the flow of hundreds of billions of funds.
But tradition is still tradition.
Rendili Interstellar Power Company is such a traditional company.
The current Rendili Interstellar Power Company owns a total of more than 5,200 interstellar shipyards, of which more than 3,700 are near the planet Rendili. The ownership of these shipyards is scattered among more than 1,200 shipyard owners, and these shipyard owners also
Through the shipbuilders' conference, the main body of Rendili Interstellar Power Company was jointly constructed.
As the leader of Lundili Interstellar Power Company, the Ulan family has more than 1,000 interstellar shipyards under their direct control. In other words, the Ulan family directly controls a quarter of Lundili Interstellar Power Company.
1’s industrial production capacity, not counting the shipyards they indirectly control.
This time, faced with unprecedented changes in the 25,000-year history of Rendili Planet and Rendili Interstellar Power Company, the Shipwrights Conference was convened again.
Bangila Ulan walked up to the rostrum seriously, faced the hundreds of shipyard owners present, and said his opening remarks solemnly, "As I said before, the Galactic Republic conspired to seize our Lundili.
The assets have been held for a long time, and now their conspiracy has finally surfaced. And what I have to do is to resist! Resist the Galactic Republic! And then find a path of our own!"
There was an uproar in the audience, and several shipyard owners immediately objected loudly. They stood up and said: "What you call resisting the Galactic Republic and preventing the Republic from seizing our assets will result in handing over our assets to the separatists?
Apart from the fact that we will have a war in our own homeland, what is the difference between the two!?"
"If you want to resist the Republic, you Ulan family should go alone! Don't take us with you!"
Benjira Ulan seemed not to hear these objections. He just continued to talk to himself: "Not long ago, I just handed over the position of executive director of Lundili Interstellar Power Company to the youngest daughter of our family.
Adele Ulan, and now she has married Mr. Tang Xiao, the governor of the Dawn Planet. The current Rendili Interstellar Power Company will officially become a member of the Confederation of Independent Systems."
The opposition in the audience was even louder, and some shipyard owners even jumped on the table and cursed Banjila-Ulan.
Looking at the noisy crowd in the audience, a strange smile gradually appeared on Banjira Ulan's face. He whispered something into the microphone, not caring whether he would be disturbed by the noise in the audience if he lowered his voice.
submerged.
"Look at that...this is the Shipwrights' Conference, and this is where the ancestors of the Ulan family once stood 25,000 years ago. But did our ancestors ever think about these things when our company was facing annihilation?
What the boatmen are thinking about is not how to save the company, but how to survive alone..."
He looked up at the ceiling and sighed: "It's ironic... It's ironic... Only today do I really realize that Rendili is really old..."
The shouting and cursing in the audience has become more and more intense, and some shipyard owners even turned around and wanted to leave.
However, those shipyard owners who wanted to leave were surprised to find...
The door to the venue is blocked!
The smile on Banjila Ulan's face became brighter and brighter. He grabbed the microphone and shouted loudly: "Do you think I'm here to discuss with you? No no!
Hahahahaha!
Today, I am here to play the closing symphony for this boatmen’s conference that has been in existence for 25,000 years!
!”
He raised his hand, and dozens of mechanical spheres rolled in from the passage around the venue.
As these mechanical spheres stopped and unfolded, beetle-style robots with simple structures and twin blaster machine guns installed on their hands surrounded the entire venue.
Destroyer robot!

What to do, what to do... Adele Ulan's description makes me have the urge to go under the knife...
