In the Ziguang galaxy, there is a planet called Zihong, which is the second most habitable star in the Tianhe star field.
The headquarters of the Ping An Business Group is here. The Ping An headquarters on the central star is actually just a cover.
On this day, cheers came from the Ping An Building, which was originally sluggish in popularity.
Cardin and others, who had been missing for more than two years, actually returned in a starship.
Initially, four merchant ships were transported in a team. After being besieged by the star pirates, only one merchant ship returned.
The merchant ship that came back was in tatters and all the cargo was thrown away. Fortunately, the seven crew members on board were safe and sound.
The news they brought back made everyone no longer have expectations for the remaining three merchant ships. After reporting to the official, they just waited for the notification from the star pirates.
But as everyone thought, the attack was probably not the work of the Star Thieves.
More than two years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the headquarters has not received any clear news.
There is a lot of gossip, and there are also a few brave guys who try to make money by using fake news.
However, no matter how desperate the Ping An Merchant Group is, it cannot be bullied and deceived by just any cat or dog.
After severely cracking down on a few guys, no one dared to cheat again, but no more news came.
People at the headquarters have already acquiesced that all three starships were destroyed and all personnel were killed.
The reason why these people's identities were not canceled is because the empire allowed those who disappeared in space to retain their identities until the end of their lives.
Now that they have actually received a communication from Kadin, and there are pictures to prove it, one can imagine how happy everyone is.
The most unusual thing is that they actually brought back an armed merchant ship belonging to the Star Pirates.
"Strictly control the information," the boss of the business group made the decision. "The action team will go and respond to see what needs they have."
Although Kadin didn't say anything, it was obviously inconvenient to stay in space even though he had already returned.
A small starship took off into the sky and headed straight into outer space.
Kadin's merchant ship stopped at a distance of 1.2 million kilometers from Zihong Star.
This is the limit of the firepower of ordinary armed merchant ships. If you stay here, you will not be specifically targeted by the planetary government.
When the small starship arrived, Qing Hu and Xiao Moshan had already moved and joined everyone.
A total of six people from the action team came, including an A-level man named Hail, who asked what was going on.
Cardin answered very directly, "The superficial reason is that we are carrying a starship with a star thief and we need to report it in advance."
"But the real reason can only be told to Hail alone."
The two talked secretly for a while. When Hail came out, his eyes were bright, "Let's go back first."
When the small starship returned, there were fourteen people on it.
Except for Duoduo, the other seven strange faces all have faces that do not allow strangers to approach them.
When the starship applied to land, some border patrol officers said they wanted to board the starship for inspection.
This request was rejected mercilessly by Hail, "That's almost it. We have brought important information about the Star Thieves."
The Ping An Business Group is indeed not as good as it used to be, but after all, it is a local company and has enough reasons to maintain some privileges.
After the starship landed, they directly boarded the armored vehicle that the business group came to pick up. The reason was to "protect important evidence."
I have to admit that what Kadin said is absolutely right. The Ping An Business Group in Zihong Star is still a bit of a local snake.
After the armored vehicle drove into the garage of the headquarters, not long after, a dozen buses drove out and headed in different directions.
One of the buses rushed to the private estate of the boss of the business group.
In addition to the eight people who got off the starship, the boss Gilt himself was also in the car, along with Hail and two attendants.
On Qu Jianlei's side, Hua Xiezi is in charge of communication. This is not because they are arrogant, but because the boss of the business group is only A-level.
Geert naturally didn't dare to care about it, but kept talking with a smile on his face.
Even if he may not believe that the other party has four supremes, judging from his behavior, he can at least guarantee two supremes.
He didn't even dare to ask who was the supreme one, because the other party didn't want to reveal his identity.
Hua Scorpion's request now is to get a false identity as soon as possible.
As for why she didn't use her original identity, she didn't explain, and the other party didn't dare to ask more questions. She just promised that it would be done as soon as possible.
There is also a bailout of 100 million, because Ping An received the news in a hurry and could not get so much at once.
The key is that they need bearer banknotes, the amount is relatively large, and the Tianhe Star Region is relatively mature, and tax evasion detection is stricter.
Gilt promised to raise the funds within ten days - including 50 million for guardianship costs.
It would not be impossible to go faster, but he was worried about attracting the attention of interested people and causing unnecessary trouble.
Geert said it openly, and there is nothing wrong with the flower scorpion.
And her reaction also showed from the side that they really didn't want to reveal their identities.
But Geert really doesn't care about this. He has been in charge of such a large company for decades, and he understands very well that when the water is clear, there will be no fish.
To judge the quality of a person, you cannot listen to what others say, but to see what the other person does.
Through Duo Duo's description, he knew that this was a group of people with a bottom line, and they were more on guard.
As for the other party's true identity and whether it was related to the Purcell Consortium, Gilt didn't even bother to inquire.
There are other related cooperation matters that have been discussed before. In the next time, we just need to perfect the details.
But these are not important. Both parties have identities, and verbal promises are enough.
Finally, Hua Xiezi suddenly asked, "Who is Duoduo's great-grandfather, and why didn't he come?"
Several supreme beings came from our side, but the only supreme being from the other side did not come to greet them. This was really rude.
Gilt was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked at Duoduo with a look of helplessness on his face.
Duo Duo glanced at Ha'il, then at the two attendants, and replied calmly, "We will discuss this matter later."
After driving for more than three hours, we arrived at a remote manor, covering an area of almost one square kilometer.
The security of this manor is extremely tight, and most of it is operated intelligently, as well as a large number of robots.
Independent power supply and network can ensure that it is not subject to external data attacks.
The construction cost of the manor alone reached an astonishing 400 million.
Next, this will become a temporary residence for Qu Jianlei and the others. After dealing with this matter, there will be a new place to live.
Gilt opened all permissions to Hua Scorpion and said that when he leaves tomorrow morning, all personnel will be removed.
It took him half a day just to introduce the various applications in the manor.
During this period, there were constant communication requests from outside to contact him, but he simply ignored them.
The dinner was very sumptuous, and Qu Jianlei and the others were not polite and started eating with all their cheeks.
It is really not easy to live the life of a savage for more than a year.
However, Duoduo's reaction is not much better than theirs. You must know that she is only a C-level person.
After having had enough wine and food, Gilt and others left with a wink, and Duoduo apologized.
"My great-great-grandfather is the most auspicious person, but I haven't heard anything about him for seven or eight years."
"Good luck..." Mrs. Jia muttered softly, thought for a while and then expressed.
"I have some impression of this person. He seems to be of earth type. He should be about ten years older than me."
More than ten years older than you? Duoduo silently memorized this information. This old lady is indeed the Supreme.
"Okay, don't worry about this anymore," the paranoid said calmly, "As long as it doesn't show up in the near future, it doesn't matter."
In other words, if Jixiang appears recently, it would be disrespectful to everyone, and this matter must be discussed.
Duoduo said sadly, "Actually, I have a little suspicion that he may be gone."
Others were not surprised by this statement. For the Ping An Merchant Group, life and death were the only thing left that was too important.
However, Hua Scorpion asked with great interest, "How many people know the exact news?"
"I don't know," Duoduo shook his head sadly, "My status is not important enough."
"Okay, let's rest," Qu Jianlei stood up, "Let's go out for a walk tomorrow, I can't stand it anymore."
He hates shopping the most, but after more than a year, he also misses the urban atmosphere of modern society.
In the next few days, the seven of them, accompanied by Duoduo, just went shopping.
Even Mrs. Jia went on a shopping spree, but her reason was that she was "in a good mood."
Qu Jianlei also learned something new from Duoduo... The Ping An Business Group was actually able to obtain a large computing unit!
This thing is not made by Ping An, but they can actually get it, and they can ask for the secret door to be removed.
This is the first time Qu Jianlei has confirmed that the computing unit also has a secret door.
You know, the three computing units he purchased before and after did not have secret doors. Who would have thought that a larger computing unit would actually have one!
Of course, this is not surprising at all. The empire does not supervise ordinary computing power, which does not mean that it does not pay attention to super computing power.
However, Duoduo was not very clear about the specific situation, so she said she could inquire about it.
Just when they were strolling around leisurely, Zihongxing's official residence was bombed.
The armed merchant ship posing as a star pirate has been towed back to the planet, bringing back dozens of pieces of human tissue.
These were collected by Kadin and others in order to find out the murderer behind the scenes.
These dozens of pieces of human tissue belong to twelve people respectively. Through genetic sequencing and comparison, the identities of nine people have been determined.
Among them, three are from Zihong star, two are from Nanhe, the central star, and four are from Qiuwei star.
Not to mention the last two planets, the three people from Zihong Star must start investigating, right?
Two of the three people work for a security company called "Dukas", and the other one is also related to the company.
The Ping An Business Group strongly requested the government to conduct a thorough investigation of this company.
However, this is difficult. The headquarters of Dukas Company is on Procyon, and there are three Supremes in total.
Because they were security guards, they had many acquaintances and had business relationships with at least seven or eight supreme officials.
In Zihongxing itself, there is also a supreme commander, I don't know if it is a coincidence or intentional.
