These three people were none other than Pei Guang, Xing and San Yueqi. Because there were no more rooms available and San Yueqi wanted to continue experiencing the local characteristics, all three of them moved into this room.

If it's one person, then he would have gone to bed long ago. If it's two people, it might be an intense exercise before going to bed. But with three people! The nature is different. It's a fierce duel before going to bed.

Pei Guang looked at the three cards in his hand and smiled proudly. As the landlord, he would win no matter if he played single or double cards of Star and March Seven. He could play the King for single cards and two Twos for double cards.

Pei Guang observed the cards in Sanyueqi and Xing's hands. Sanyueqi still had eight cards, and Xing still had eleven cards.

Looking at the hesitant Xing, Pei Guang launched a victory declaration: "Just play your cards. You have already played the bomb. How can you kill me with the remaining eleven cards? How can you kill me with eleven cards?"

The proud Pei Guang directly chose the open card. Looking at the pair of deuces and a king in Pei Guang's hand, San Yue Qi's eyes widened: "How do you have such a big card?"

Pei Guang: "Because I will definitely win this one! Xing! Stop holding it in like you're constipated, just admit defeat!"

Xing, who had played four threes at this time, looked at the cards in her hand with a conflicted look on her face. Her expression seemed to tell Pei Guang how bad the cards she had were. But when Pei Guang told her to admit defeat, Xing showed a contemptuous smile on her face.

"45678910jqkA, straight! I'm out of cards! Guang, you lose."

"what?"

Looking at the cards Xing played, Pei Guang's eyes widened: "No, you have a straight, why are you holding it here?"

Xing stood up and looked down at Pei Guang: "Because I just want to see your expression of defeat after being sure of victory, Guang. I really like this expression of yours."

Pei Guang: "Damn it! You have such a bad taste! Come on, keep going. I don't believe I will lose!"

March 7: "Keep going!"

Xing: "Let's go!"

Since entering the room, the three of them started playing poker. Sanyueqi and Xing had to admit that they were really addicted to the game called Dou Dizhu. They played for most of the night and each of them had their share of wins and losses, and they were very happy.

But when Pei Guang was shuffling the cards, his cell phone suddenly rang. Pei Guang stopped shuffling the cards and took out his cell phone.

The content of the phone message was sent by Bronya.

"A Guang, excuse me for interrupting you. I'm in some trouble here. Can we meet at Klipperburg tomorrow? Well, let me make it short. The Interstellar Peace Company sent someone to Beloberg and said that we owed a sum of money. I checked and it's an astronomical figure. Thanks to your help, Beloberg can repay this astronomical sum. But I feel that the company seems to have other purposes, but I don't know what they are interested in. Let's talk about it when we meet tomorrow."

And Xing and Sanyueqi gathered around.

March 7: "Which girl came to chat with you in the middle of the night?"

Xing: "How do you know it's a little girl?"

March 7: "My intuition is super accurate!"

In a way, what San Yue Qi said was right. She often manages to get the result right even though the process is completely wrong.

Pei Guang looked at the message on his phone and his expression became serious: "It seems that the Star Destroyer we obtained in Beloberg will finally have a chance to be used. I said that the Star Destroyer we obtained in Beloberg will definitely be of great use in Beloberg."

March 7: "Hey? What happened?"

Pei Guang: "Bronya sent a message, the company dog ​​has appeared."

March 7: "Ah? Company dog? A dog raised by the company?"

Pei Guang: "You are right in some ways. As expected, in the context of a monopoly company like this, this kind of plot is bound to appear. After taking out a loan and not being able to pay it back, you have to work to pay off the debt. Your descendants lose their freedom and can only work. Tsk! It's like Arasaka Tower in another world!"

Bronya didn't say much on Pei Guang's phone. She just said that the company sent someone to collect a debt from seven hundred years ago. If the debt didn't have those two components, Beloberg couldn't afford it.

But through these speeches, Pei Guang suddenly remembered today's experience, and then he suddenly remembered Cyberpunk and capitalists. When Bronya said that if Pei Guang hadn't given 20% of the shares, Beloberg might not be able to pay off the debt and sign the contract with the company. Pei Guang saw that after signing the contract, the people of Beloberg worked hard for the company, had no freedom, and no future.

At this moment, Pei Guang felt the fire burning in his heart. The only pity was that he didn't have Johnny Silverhand in his head.

Xing: "Hmm? What happened? Let me see~"

Xing came over and looked at the message sent by Bronya. Xing didn't have that much imagination. It just said someone came to collect debts, the debt was a lot, thank you Pei Guang, and that the person who came to collect the debt was not right. Xing was simple-minded and didn't see too many hidden things.

Xing: "It seems like there is nothing?"

Pei Guang: "That's because you're inexperienced. Come on! Let's do some reading comprehension. Look! In this paragraph, Bronya said that someone from the company came to collect a debt, and the amount of money was an astronomical figure. This proves that the company wants to seize Beloberg's resources and population. If they didn't want them, why would they come to collect the debt?"

March 7: "Hey? What you said makes sense! Wait? I remember you mentioned in the afternoon... the company was collecting debts and so on, and you really came to collect debts in the evening? Are you a prophet?"

Pei Guang continued to analyze: "I am not a prophet. I just said it casually at the time. Who would have thought that I would guess it right?"

Xing: "Guang, please continue to analyze. Is there anything else hidden in this sentence?"

Pei Guang: "Look, she said thank you for our help. Although she asked me to go over, judging from this sentence, Bronya is struggling. As a leader, she shouldn't rely too much on others, but the appearance of the company dog ​​forced her to rely on others. If you ask me, Bronya is being distant. Who are we? We went through trash cans together and went to the lower level together. It's just that Beloberg is too poor to give rewards now. If he can't give rewards, just give him more favor."

Xing looked at Pei Guang: "Does this thank you have so many meanings?"

Pei Guang: "Of course, looking at the last sentence, she felt something was wrong, but she didn't know what it was. Isn't it obvious that the other party has threatened her and monitored her, otherwise why did she emphasize meeting in person to talk? What would a company with a pure monopoly and the right to issue currency do when Beloberg is not under control? Of course, they would find a way to kill those who don't obey, and then make the entire planet's people slaves. That's not right! They can't be called slaves. In a civilized society, they should be called workers."

Xing: "Working people...are they miserable?"

Pei Guang: "Free workers are not miserable because they can choose to work or not. But workers who are forced to work by the company are miserable. They are like 007, they don't eat well or sleep well, and they have children just to continue working for the company. Do you think such workers are miserable?"

Xing: "That's too bad, Guang! Help Beloberg!"

San Yue Qi nodded: "That's right! Beloberg finally has hope, we can't let the company ruin their hope."

Pei Guang nodded: "Of course, our Star Destroyer will be useful at this time. Remember what I said before? The seemingly invincible thing we launched in Beloberg must have played a big role in Beloberg. Defeating Cocolia only played a part of the role. Now it seems that it is time for it to play its real role."

San Yue Qi gasped, "Wait? Guang, you're not going to go to war with the company, are you?"

Pei Guang: "Do you think I'm such a reckless person?"

Hearing Pei Guang's question, Xing and Sanyueqi nodded at the same time. Seeing the two nod, Pei Guang said with a heartache: "How can you think of me like this?"

Xing and Sanyueqi nodded, and then shook their heads at the same time.

Xing: "Hmm~ Guang, you are very smart! But it seems that you just go up and do it more often?"

San Yue Qi nodded: "That's right! I always feel that every time, Guang, you only do something when you are absolutely sure, instead of gambling. That's right! You will definitely not gamble if you are sure to lose."

Pei Guang: “…”

After a few dozen seconds

Pei Guang: "I say... is there anyone who would expose someone's past like you?"

San Yue Qi reached out and held Pei Guang’s hand: “Don’t worry, there are only three of us here, what’s the big deal?”

Pei Guang nodded: "Indeed, I have seen all your past."

This sentence made San Yue Qi blush: "What are you talking about?"

Xing looked at Pei Guang and asked curiously, "But speaking of which, what are you going to do this time facing the company, Guang?"

Pei Guang: "Of course! Since the company's people are coming to this planet to collect debts and enslave the people here, they will definitely make a big fuss about the debt, and even let the people in this city know that Bronya owes money so as to put pressure on her. At that time, the company will also give a so-called bright future, making everyone think that signing the contract will bring them relief."

Hearing this, Xing recalled: "I know what this means. Guang, you said that free things are the most expensive. After signing the contract, there is definitely no so-called beauty, right?"

Pei Guang nodded: "Smart, I guess this is unknown, Bronya can see it, if she can't see it, we have to kick Bronya out of this position of great guardian and replace her with a new one."

Pei Guang continued, "If the company's actions mentioned above fail, according to the next steps of the Capital Monopoly Company, they will cause chaos in the market of Beloberg. If that doesn't work, they will definitely use force to coerce."

March 7: "Hiss, why do I feel like you are experienced, Guang?"

Pei Guang: "Didn't I say that Johnny and I have blown up company buildings. No matter if it's a big company or a small company, a monopoly company on a planet or a monopoly company in the universe, as long as it's capital, this method will definitely be used."

Xing: "What should we do? Should we go to war with the company?"

Pei Guang shook his head: "No, no, no! We have nothing and will definitely go to war, but if a war really happens, the people of this planet will be the ones who will suffer. I can lead everyone to fight against those enemies who want to destroy the world, but we must never let them get involved in a real war. I... hate war."

Looking at Pei Guang's expression, San Yue Qi asked worriedly, "Guang, have you... experienced anything?"

Pei Guang recalled: "It can't be considered an experience, right? But when I played a war game, I experienced how cruel war is to ordinary people. Whether it is for the residents of Beloberg or for those ordinary employees, war is never a good thing. We need to go to war against the legion because they are the real enemy, but against the capitalists..."

Pei Guang smiled and rubbed his hands, "Let me guess! Debt is one thing. I guess Beloberg definitely doesn't have enough money to pay it back now. The company dogs will definitely take advantage of their power to bully Bronya, who doesn't know the knowledge of the universe, and threaten Bronya to sign unequal terms through this debt. Since they take advantage of their power to bully others, we will also take advantage of our power to bully others, hehe..."

Pei Guang showed a happy smile on his face. He didn't know how to deal with the money that had been owed for hundreds of years, but Pei Guang knew that this kind of money could definitely be delayed, and even if it had to be enforced, the process had to be followed.

He estimated that the company's people would definitely use tricks here to spread fear and threats, but it didn't matter. Pei Guang contacted Fu Xuan directly and planned to borrow someone who understood this kind of law from Guan Xianzhou, so that this person could have a good talk with the company's people.

If the person you find can't understand, Pei Guang still has a trump card. Don't you want to pay back your debt? Do you want this planet? No problem, we have also found a way to seal the star track we reconnected. You can come to Beloberg to ask for money with your own ability.

If this method doesn't work? Pei Guang has another way. As a player, there are various ways to complete the task even in the linear plot. In the real world, Pei Guang can think of more than a dozen solutions, and there are no less than five ring solutions.

Although Pei Guang hated war, since the company dog ​​came to the planet he saved to cause trouble, he didn't mind leaving the company dog ​​with good memories.

At the same time, Topa, who had just finished communicating with Bronya, sneezed, "Hmm... I have a bad feeling... Never mind, my mission is completed. The next step is to complete Estelle's commission and help this Pei Guang organize a grand event~ Account, what kind of person is this Pei Guang?"

Chapter 245 Topa: "Fortunately I retreated quickly"

The next day at Crippleburg, the three pioneers, who had had a good sleep, arrived at Crippleburg.

In Klipperburg, Topa was happily chatting with Bronya. The content of the chat was nothing more than the promotion of Ether Front in Beloberg and the share of Ether Front's profits in Beloberg. It was a very formal investment exchange.

When Pei Guang and his friends arrived, Topa looked over after hearing their footsteps: "It seems like you have important visitors? Who are these people?"

Bronya: "These are the ones you are waiting for. They are..."

Before Bronya could say anything, Xing shouted, "That's right! I am the famous Galaxy Bat Man! Pioneer Xing." After the introduction, Xing took out the bat and swung it a few times.

Pei Guang: "Huh! Since you asked sincerely."

March 7: "Then I will be merciful and tell you."

Pei Guang: "I am the Galaxy Swordsman! Pioneer Pei Guang."

March Seven: "I am the Galaxy Archer! March Seven!"

Watching this scene, Topa couldn't help but applaud: "You are the famous pioneers, and are you the famous Pei Guang that Estelle mentioned?"

Pei Guang: "Oh? You know me? And you know Ester? Are you the rescuer that Ester invited?"

Topa thought, "Reinforcements? Hmm~ It was indeed Esther who called them to help you organize the event~ Well, when I arrived yesterday, I communicated with the leaders here. I wonder if you have heard of the Ether Front?"

Pei Guang: "Ah... Aether Front? What is that?"

March 7: "I don't know? What is the Ether Front?"

Xing: "It sounds... not as good as the Great Space War?"

Seeing that the three people didn't understand at all, Topa introduced enthusiastically: "Ether Front is a cosmic cultural brand jointly created by the Market Development Department and Interstellar Internet and Peace Film. This time, with the support of a mysterious sponsor, Ether Front plans to hold an interstellar victory celebration in Beloberg, which just meets your idea of ​​holding a large-scale event during the festival in this city."

Listening to Topa's introduction, Pei Guang nodded seriously and said, "A large-scale event sounds great. Since you are the one hired by Estelle, I'll leave this matter to you~"

Topa thought Pei Guang would ask her to do something, but Pei Guang's words left everything to her, leaving her at a loss: "Don't you have any ideas or suggestions?"

Pei Guang: "Ideas... suggestions! Your Ether Front is also the Interstellar Victory Celebration, which sounds like a large-scale event. Since it is a large-scale event, it's fine as long as it's fun. Hey, don't worry, I don't expect you to succeed. According to traditional arts, when sending people to organize large-scale events, all kinds of accidents are bound to happen. I will deal with any accidents when the time comes~"

San Yue Qi looked at Pei Guang and said, "I say... are you sure that something unexpected will happen in the event you lead?"

Pei Guang: "It's a traditional skill. It's fine if players don't take action. Once they do, there will definitely be all kinds of accidents. But it's not a big problem. No matter what accidents happen, players will make the event go smoothly. There will be no accidents in the end."

According to the routines of various games that Pei Guang has played, as long as players are invited to help organize an event, accidents are bound to occur. No matter how powerful the NPC is, even if the king of the world comes, accidents will occur.

Under what circumstances are there no accidents? That is when the player directly receives an invitation to participate in the event. As long as it is a large-scale event and is well prepared, hey! There will definitely be no accidents during the process, but events are bound to have various accidents.

After the player resolves the accident, he can happily participate in activities with his companions. This is a traditional skill.

Topa: "Oh? Then can you tell me what kind of accident it is? Let me take precautions."

If it were an ordinary person, Topa would have completely regarded it as the other party questioning his work ability, but where is this place? Beloberg, a place where Pei Guang could sing Amber King in a song and a trash can could despise her, Topa took it absolutely seriously.

Not only was she helping her friend Estelle, she was also seeking benefits for the company. Now she understood why the Masked Fool sponsored this event in its entirety. He definitely had his eyes on Pei Guang, a special person.

The sponsor, Masked Fool Toppa, also knows this. Every time this guy does something, it is a big event. Of course, everything he does are basically various large-scale activities, and you can experience the joyful aesthetics he practices from these activities.

Because of this, the fact that this guy has targeted it and invested in it, or even invested in it with full authority, is enough to prove how important this planet is.

In this situation, if you take the lead yourself, problems may indeed arise.

Pei Guang: "All I can think of now is that I'm organizing a festival for Beloberg, and the company is sending people to disgust me."

Topa looked down at the certification hanging on her chest, and for a moment she didn't know how to start.

San Yue Qi reminded quietly: "A Guang, she is from the company."

Pei Guang: "It's not a big problem. Although she is from the company, since she is here to help us, she is our person. It is impossible for our people to hinder our own activities, right?"

Xing was thoughtful and said, "Guang, you have already guessed what they will do, so how can we prevent them?"

Pei Guang: "That's why we're looking for Bronya today. I guess Bronya has also thought of this possibility, right?"

Bronya, who had been silent the whole time, was stunned by Pei Guang's question. She thought of... what did she think of? She just guessed that since Toppa was from the company, it must be a big deal for him to be here. In addition, Toppa talked about cooperation right away, which made Bronya, as the Great Guardian, think a little more.

But all she was thinking about was things related to Topa. She asked Pei Guang to come over just to ask him for advice. She really didn't think of anything else!

Bronya was silent for a long time before she looked at Pei Guang sincerely: "Just do it! As long as you don't tear down this place in Beloberg, you can do whatever you want. I believe you can do anything."

Pei Guang: "Oh! You trust me so much?"

Bronya nodded seriously: "A Guang... please, but sometimes I also think that I, as a great guardian, am really... incompetent. I encountered so many crises, but I couldn't do anything..."
