Shadows of the Deep Space-Chapter 888 - 397: Customization (Five-in-One) (6)

"Understood, I will keep it confidential."

Su Ming listened to Su Mulong’s words and responded seriously.

"But speaking of which, I really can’t figure out who you found. How could they make Xi Guang Laboratory give in?"

Su Mulong asked in great confusion.

"I found Vice City Lord Okens, he helped me get Gakels City Lord to intervene."

Su Ming didn’t hide anything from Su Mulong.

Hearing Su Ming’s words, Su Mulong’s expression was extremely animated.

"I was wondering how Xi Guang Laboratory could relent, turns out you had connections at the top."

In a way, Gakels is the highest-ranking official openly in the Federation Government.

"More or less, it was really tough."

Su Ming thought about the trip to Xi Guang Laboratory, his head ached; those guys were truly difficult.

"Enough of that, let’s be happy today, later we can have a few more drinks."

Su Mulong said in a very good mood.

"Alright!"

Su Ming responded with a smile.

...

In the late evening · Castle Main Dining Room.

Su Mulong, Su Feng, Su Ming, and others were seated around a fifty-person dining table.

"It’s so lively today, everyone’s back!"

"Yeah, even Su Ming has returned."

...

Everyone exchanged greetings warmly, appearing delighted in each other’s company.

Before long, one by one, the maids served the exquisite dishes, and they began dining.

Su Feng and Su Yiyang were chatting while eating.

"Kovan’s sales performance has been improving lately, I’ve heard they’re even trying to approach the Shabask Kingdom."

"That would be troublesome. If they secure the Shabask Kingdom’s market, we’ll be doomed."

"Right! But luckily, the new King ascending the throne in Shabask Kingdom is an obscure prince, no one really has ties there, so it won’t be easy for Kovan to take over; it all depends on who is more capable."

...

Su Ming listened with interest as he ate.

At this moment, Su Mulong spoke up.

"Su Feng."

"Father, what’s the matter?"

Su Feng responded quickly.

"Su Ming borrowed a sum of money from the family, transfer it to him after dinner."

"No problem, how much?"

"120 billion."

Su Mulong said directly.

"That much?"

Su Feng was stunned upon hearing the amount.

Su Zhen Tian and others were also shocked, their chopsticks falling onto their bowls.

Su Tianhao’s face instantly darkened, angrily stating.

"Father, 120 billion Federation Coins! That’s not a small amount, the profit from all Fourth Generation Mecha sales this year barely amounts to that. If we give it to him, wouldn’t we be working for nothing this year?"

Hearing Su Tianhao’s questioning, Su Mulong’s face immediately showed anger.

"Shut up, this is my decision, and it’s not up to you to question it."

Su Mulong angrily slammed the table.

Seeing his father lose his temper, Su Feng quickly chimed in.

"Tianhao, this has nothing to do with you, the family is under my charge now, and I approved the money!"

Su Tianhao felt very aggrieved, suppressing his anger as he responded.

"Alright, lending him the money is not a problem, but I just want to ask: Su Ming, what are you borrowing such a large amount for?"

Everyone at the table turned to look at Su Ming.

Su Ming was momentarily at a loss, not knowing how to explain.

Seeing this, Su Mulong also scolded angrily.

"Damn it, why do you care so much? Ming has already reported its usage to me, do I need to report to you too?"

"I dare not."

Su Tianhao gritted his teeth and replied.

"Then stay quiet and eat your meal."

Su Mulong said unhappily.

Everyone lowered their heads to eat, no one dared to speak.

Starlight City Lord’s Mansion.

In the quiet and elegant room, a purple-haired girl wearing a purple lace long dress, her long hair draped over her shoulders, stood with her hands behind her back by the window, gazing at the blossoming Starlight City, her purple eyes flickering constantly.

Squeak~

Accompanied by a creaky sound, the door was slowly pushed open.

Gakels entered, greeting respectfully.

"Miss."

The purple-haired girl turned to look at Gakels, and asked indifferently.

"How is the situation?"

"Rumors are flying everywhere. I have been doing my best to dispel the rumors and deploy personnel for searches. But the situation is still not ideal, the entire Federation is in a severe state of unrest, and people are in a panic."

Gakels shook his head and replied. freewebnoveℓ.com

"I see."

The purple-haired girl nodded slightly in response.

"Miss, the Federation can’t continue without leadership. Let’s hold an election; I will fully support you in ascending."

Gakels took a deep breath, speaking with great determination.

"No, the moment I ascend to that position, it will also be the moment the Federation perishes. Whoever sits on that seat will face death."

The purple-haired girl replied with a chilling voice.

In fact, everyone is watching the old Council Chairman; the moment a new Council Chairman takes the position, it implies something has happened to the old Council Chairman.

The hyenas will pounce at that time.

"Then what should we do?"

Gakels knew she was right.

"There’s no way out, we can only buy more time, what we need now is time."

The purple-haired girl replied calmly.

"Miss, the issue is we don’t have much time left, the storm is approaching."

Gakels was truly exhausted, on the verge of breaking down.

The purple-haired girl remained silent for a few seconds, then looked up and said.

"Gakels, after the new year, announce a new policy."

"What policy?"

"The Federation Government will officially open council seats, any neutral country that meets the criteria can join the Federation, becoming a member state, enjoying the Federation’s benefits, and protection."

"Brilliant! This policy is excellent!"

Gakels’ tired expression showed a glimpse of excitement hearing the purple-haired girl’s words.

Opening council seats to the Federation will have neutral countries flocking to join, effectively disturbing everyone’s interests.

Dark Star and Tianqi are sure to be relentless.

Conflict will inevitably ignite in the neutral countries, akin to the Federation deliberately initiating a wartime situation, gathering everyone’s focus there.

At this moment, the purple-haired girl slowly raised her wristband, checking the time; it was now January 9, 4621 of the Old Era.

She spoke calmly to Gakels.

"There’s only a month and three days left until the year-end, take a good rest, for this might be the last good year."

"But..."

"Sometimes suppressing things constantly isn’t a good thing either."

"Understood."

Gakels replied respectfully.
