Chapter 275 Second Escort
In this operation, the loss of personnel was not small, especially the defense forces. More than 200 people died alone, and the loss of equipment and vehicles was also a lot.The pensions for the sacrificed personnel, the medical expenses for the injured, the rewards for the meritorious personnel, and the cost of supplementing the damaged equipment and vehicles, add up to a large amount of money.

Sun Xiang didn't pay much attention to this expense. He knew that although the money in his pocket was not enough to pay for the purchase of the warship, it was still no problem to use it for the aftermath of this operation.However, Claude, who is in charge of the money, frowned after seeing the list of expenses. This is not a small amount. This amount of money is more than enough to buy two Homecoming ships. For the Sun Xiang gang that is currently facing a large funding gap , which would make their financial situation worse.

However, following the reports of those sent to investigate, Claude's frowning brows relaxed.Sure enough, a large number of valuable commodities were found in the East Warehouse. If they were all sold, they could easily pay for the aftermath of this operation.With the economic pressure gone, what else is he worried about?
From the performance of the defense force robots in the battle, Sun Xiang discovered the gap between the robots in the Habitat.

It is not difficult to borrow a small team of robots from the defense force to study, and the procedure of extracting them from Wisdom Mountain is even simpler.As a result, with the excellent "Trinity" tactics plus excellent combat robots, the combat effectiveness of the robots in the Habitat remains unchanged, and the rate of improvement varies according to the environment. Of course, this makes Sun Xiang very happy.

The dust of Dimore City's suppression operation was settled, and the second escort operation officially started.This time, except for the 22nd floor, all [-] floors of the Habitat have been reserved by merchants. The number of accompanying merchants has reached [-], and the number of escorted merchant ships is [-]. This is still in short supply, and many merchants have not been booked. next time.

On his second voyage, Sun Xiang brought all the improved and defective products, and the merchants to take over had already been determined. He gave half of them to his old friend Kaman, and the other half to other merchants in different star regions, so that there would be no problems due to A region is oversaturated with commodities, affecting sales.

Sun Xiang will also receive five other defective products during this escort return journey, and the work of improving them will still be handed over to Attila's workshop, which is the main way to raise funds for the purchase of warships.

Sun Xiang was looking forward to the pirates visiting his Habitat again. Some time ago, the craftsmen in the spaceship had carried out a lot of safety modification work on this ship. If the pirates still wanted to rob the ship, it was guaranteed that they would never come back.

It's a pity that the pirates didn't even show up during the 20-day voyage, and the fleet safely arrived at Tumen.

Before the fleet entered the spaceport, Sun Xiang received a notification from Kaijin that someone wanted to see him, so Sun Xiang left the spacecraft as soon as the Habitat entered the berth.Behind him were four big men from Giant Tree Town led by Sim. They were tall and dressed in battle armor, they looked like Sun Xiang's bodyguards.

Kai Jin brought two people to meet Sun Xiang, one was Miller, whom Sun Xiang had met a long time ago, and the other was an energetic gray-haired old man who seemed to be a straightforward person when he spoke.Miller introduced his identity. It turned out to be Kennels' diplomat, and his name was Weissman.

Sun Xiang chatted with Weissman, but he was a little puzzled in his heart. It has been almost half a year since he took over Attila, and Kenneth never took the initiative to find him.

Attila has a special envoy sent by Kenneth, but since I met him at the welcome ceremony, I have never seen the young red-haired envoy again. If Kenneth has anything official to talk to himself, why? Instead of going through their special envoy, send a diplomat to wait for you on Tumen?

"Mr. Sun Xiang did not hesitate to risk his life and did not compromise with the pirates. It is really admirable!" After Miller finished his introduction, Weissman said to Sun Xiang with a professional smile. He must have heard that After seeing the assassination of Sun Xiang, I don't know whether I really admire him or fake it.

"Where! I was completely forced to do this. Whoever let me sit in this position, I can only take it when I encounter danger." Sun Xiang shook his hand and said, he didn't know the old man's purpose, and he could only speak vaguely.

After hearing this, Weissman said with a serious face: "If Mr. Sun Xiang has difficulties in dealing with pirates, you can ask us for help. Our good relationship with the alliance can be traced back tens of thousands of years ago. Those who can help will never sit idly by." ignore."

Sun Xiang despised it in his heart. Their civilization is really related to the Handicraft Alliance, but if it is a good relationship, few people would agree.For such a long time, at least one-third of the time the relationship between the two sides was in mutual confrontation, this old man really dared to say.

As for letting them help deal with the pirates, it would be great if they could really be hired. With their warships with superior civilization and performance, the pirate forces near Attila couldn't be so rampant.Kennels maintains an indifferent attitude towards other civilizations. Even if you perish, as long as it doesn't affect me, then I won't care.

The pirate alliance in Attila didn't dare to provoke Kennels at all, and Kenneth's ship rarely went to Attila, and there was no conflict between the two sides.In the past, if the Attila officials invited Kennels to send warships to destroy the pirates, they might not even bother, but why did the diplomat take the initiative today?Sun Xiang was very puzzled.

"You mean, I can use the power of your civilization's warships to destroy pirates?" Sun Xiang asked, not sure what he meant.

"Of course! Of course!" Weisman was very sure.

"No other strings attached? No other requirements?"

"this one"

Weisman lowered his eyelids and looked at the ground. He seemed to be thinking about how to answer Sun Xiang.

Sun Xiang knew that there would be no good things for no reason.What made the Kenneth people offer to help, he still can't guess, but listening to Weissman's next words, Sun Xiang knew what prompted this super civilization to do so.

"Our warships are not used to cooperating with spaceships of other civilizations. Their spaceships nearby will hinder our actions. As long as you ensure that there are no warships of other civilizations near Attila, our help will come immediately."

"So that's how it is!" Sun Xiang finally knew why Kenneth came to him to help him. It turned out that they already knew that Atlantis would send a fleet to help wipe out the pirates. The fleet is rather taboo.

Atlantis wanted to send the fleet here even at the expense of lowering their value, but Kenneth did not want their fleet to arrive. The reason here was definitely not as simple as fighting for the mission of eradicating pirates.Sun Xiang couldn't see through the purpose of both sides, and he also knew that at his current level it was impossible to participate in the contest between these two civilizations, so he could only judge from his own point of view which choice would be beneficial to him.
