Chapter 1150: Striving for Betrothal Gift!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Before what the Mayans had left behind had even been undone, Macaah Republic’s Atomic battle team had been unexpectedly defeated by the Earthworm Federation.

The Mayans and Astina Federation were the same – they were traditional old power countries, and their capabilities were not that far apart. The Atomic battle team also had two Earth-rank warriors. Although taking first place might be a stretch, they were publicly acknowledged as a team with the ability to enter the top eight.

Having matched up against the Earthworm Federation’s Demonic Dragon battle team, which had been critiqued as “standard” and “ordinary”, in the top sixteen, it could be considered a sure win battle.

In the end, it had instead become a three to one, which left people dumbstruck.

On top of that, the Earthworm Federation’s Demonic Dragon’s captain did not even enter the battle!

Zhou Yun looked for Lear the first minute he could. “There’s something wrong with the Earthworm Federation. It could be possible that...”

Lear slightly nodded his head. He had also seen it, “Go investigate a bit.”

If it were some general ancient martial arts, then there would be nothing to bother with, but if it were their competitor, he would need to ponder over it carefully. It was just that he did not expect that while the Mayans’ real strength was so great, the two Mayans with him were not of that level. But he knew the reason. It was because of the level of energy conversion within the body. These two fellows’ energy conversion was not as strong as that of the Child of Light battle team’s. With the Mayans, if the body did not evolve by ten percent, the effect that it would bring about would be different. It could be said that amongst all living civilisations, the Mayans desired the most was to become the light, the gods. Even till now, they had not given up.

The battle continued on. SIG’s skill level was clearly above IG’s and much greater than the level of any country that wasn’t involved. There were a few unexpected situations that frequently emerged upon entering the actual competition. There was no one that was absolutely strong.

On the transport route side, Yan Xiaosu was more relaxed. Even if HU had only revealed a bit of strength, it was like a sudden clap of thunder. He could feel the disparity in his bones, the difference between aristocrats, and new money. So much so that it made him recall that he once sold sanitary pads, but this was a necessary road to take. Yan Xiaosu did not ask, but he knew deep down that it was almost certainly related to Princess Anna; otherwise, there would be no for HU to be as such. Afraid that this was just responsibility. Wang Zheng neither spoke nor asked, he only wanted to get it done with even more. They had to prepare an abundant betrothal gift for Wang Zheng. Boss was taking a princess as his wife, not marrying into her family, so they would have to work hard.

The KO Tita Business Organisation and HU Shipping joined hands in strength, leaving Margate Interstellar Airline dumbstruck.

This really was some peoples’ joy and others’ distress, innocent yet unjustly implicated. Fuller, who was placed in charge of obtaining this transport route project, nearly cracked his head to bits, but he still could not understand why HU would work with the KO Tita Business Organisation. There was no reason to do so!

All the more, this was HU Shipping!

Looking at the clause, aside from the addition of gaining from participating in the construction cost, HU had actually no control rights?

It was just a bit of a profit at max? It was simply like letting a fierce tiger become vegetarian. Wasn’t it just absurd? Had HU come here just to do a bit of good?

Fuller spat in contempt.

In this age, how many people would provide help in somebody’s hour of need? There were only people trying to make something perfect even more perfect, fighting to be in front of others.

It would’ve been okay if he could not get it, but the shipping alliance that Margate Interstellar Airline had spent an enormous price for previously had fallen apart. action

Fuller did not even dare to express his desire to stay. HU had already stated their stand, what more could they do? Go up head to head against HU? He was not that crazy yet.

In the shipping world, what kind of a giant was HU, which had been established for over two hundred years? They had close relations with the Aslan’s royal family. Thus, wouldn’t it just be making their own selves uncomfortable?

People were in awe as no one explained clearly. In the business world, there was bound to be people who would be unconvinced. They had the backing of the higher-ups in HU, but what would be the outcome?

HU was like the sun at midday, while the opponents were like night blooming cacti that only showed once. The most critical part was that this was business, where the strong feed on the weak.

What made Fuller unable to swallow his anger was that he had to look on helplessly as those people, who had all claimed to be his brothers just yesterday, turned their backs on him to submit a collaboration proposal to KO organisation.

“Chief Yan, the people from YUN company have arrived...”

“Let them wait.”

“Okay.” The negotiation team’s leader smiled, feeling exuberant. He had followed Chief Yan to ten over shipping companies. There were those who gave face and allowed them into their buildings, but some just directly had their security teams block them outside under the hot sun.

Yan Xiaosu smiled. He sure was in the mood to prevent those who had not acknowledged him days before from climbing up the social ladder.

Of course, the issue of collaboration still needed to be discussed. Yan Xiaosu had managed to control the scale very well. These people had come for HU, and at the same time, he was clear that using HU’s influence was like borrowing wind – it needed to be just right. If they ended up borrowing a typhoon, it would not be easy to clear the mess.

Although it was pretentious, the progress of the transport route had actually not become smoother because of shipping circle’s full cooperation.

The Fairy Star Federation did take the lead, and there were also a few countries that had reached an agreement to cooperate under HU’s negotiations. However, there were still a few countries who were still unyielding; they had even allied together, forming a Five Country Conglomerate headed by Helson Federation and Du Ma Free Planet.

It was not that they did not agree on having a transport route built through, but they hoped to gain more benefits. They also requested for the harbours to be managed by the public service personnel they would dispatch and for dividends from the profits that Yan Xiaosu would earn every year.

To put it simply, it would do for Yan Xiaosu and the others to only hold some stocks and receive dividends from there.

This was obviously not possible, as the harbour was the node of the transport route. According to the Milky Way Alliance’s practices, the attribution rights belonged to the main authorised party. Their status was equivalent to an embassy. The only difference was that it had an economic function, and at the same time contributed taxes to the countries in the star field.

The negotiations had immediately entered a deadlock. HU had sent a few negotiation teams on their end; however, in the end, it just showed that small devils were hard to deal with. The troubles of the small countries were that they could be easily ignorant and narrow-minded, but their advantage was that because they had few experiences when it came to doing things, they did not have concerns and would dare to act.

If the deadlock continued, HU would definitely pull something huge.

But there would always be something unexpected.

“Chief Yan! Maklou...”

“What happened to Maklou?”

“They sent an official letter over...”

Yan Xiaosu took the document from his secretary’s hands, eyes sweeping across the page a few times. His facial expression turned serious in a second.

The Maklou visiting delegation headed by Maklou’s governor, Mr. Mobo, would be doing inquiry visits to the countries along the transport route.

This was a very sensitive timing. They wanted to do an inquiry visit, but KO had yet to settle the preceding matters of the transport route.

Unfortunately, the Five Country Conglomerate refused to let it go.

Five Country Conglomerate’s meeting.

They were also having an intense discussion on the matter of Maklou’s delegation.

Fuller was surprisingly within the meeting. In actuality, the Five Country Conglomerate was able to be formed mainly due to Margate Interstellar Airline’s previous work as a go-between, and Fuller was the main person in charge. Although HU had shown their hand, there was not too much of an impact in the first wave of the movement. It had always been Margate Interstellar Airline’s tradition to retreat to advance, letting others oppose at the forefront instead.

In addition, having studied the collaboration between HU and KO in detail, there was not much depth to it. Having already showed their strength once, the possibility of a second offense, although not impossible, was very low.

With the current situation, Margate Interstellar Airline could not possibly intervene in the transport route again directly. However, they could earn profits and gain high operability through other methods.

The proposal that they had brought up with Yan Xiaosu was just a smoke screen, an act for HU to see.

Their biggest plan laid with this Five Country Conglomerate. These five puny countries that have never been exposed to society basically would not have the resources or capability to construct and manage the harbour. In the end, wouldn’t it be Margate that would have the final say?

The reason he had used to convince the five countries had been simple: HU had not deeply involved themselves and had no interest in it, so how would they be offending them?

“With regards to Maklou, we have done a lot of work, which we believe has helped accumulate quite a bit of dissatisfaction with KO. My suggestion would be to ally with Maklou, and give them a part of the rights and benefits. As long as we can seize the harbour, our future will be even brighter.”

Fuller enthusiastically advocated his theory. “Right now, the transport route is two-sided. Titatitan Star was only one end of it, so Maklou also has the right to turn the tables. As long as we have Maklou tied to our battle plans, we can ignore the rest, including HU Shipping. Of course, we can’t fall out with them, so we will prepare shares for them. Everyone would have an easy life. I believe no one would reject such a huge interest!”

Everyone was a businessman, so they would flock together for profits and also part ways for profits!

The leaders of each of the countries all lowered their voices to discuss, nodding their heads once in a while. The magnitude of HU’s intervention was not huge. This was also the reason they had persevered on. In addition to the future enormous profits to gain, they had to give it a try regardless. If anything were to happen, did they not have a big talker of a scapegoat in front of them, someone who excelled at casting off the blame.

Fuller was also grasping on to his final chance. He could not lose. Once he lost, everything would go to waste, and the organisation did not need a failure. Maklou and KO’s relation was not too close, so there was a huge possibility that they were introduced through Tita. They would definitely have a chance with Maklou as the public relations point!
