In the center of the hall, several beams of light shone down, making the area very bright.

A table was already set up there.

The table wasn't very big; it could only seat fewer than ten people.

A man was already seated at the head of the table, holding a teacup in his hand, gently blowing on it to warm it, and slowly taking a sip.

To the man's right was a very beautiful and alluring woman; the moment you saw her appearance...

Hana-ya Lan-lan immediately recognized the woman's race.

A rare race, the succubus.

Besides, on the other side of the round table sat Hanaya Ranran's younger sister, Hanaya Nini.

When Hua Ya Nini saw her older sister arrive, she immediately stood up and said happily, "Sister, you're here!"

Let me introduce it to you.

This is my older sister, Hanaya Lanlan.

He is also the highest-ranking executive officer, or rather, the head [N O V E L I G H T] of the Bailan Interstellar Trade Group.

Hua Yalan bowed slightly, behaving politely.

Hua Ya Nini then introduced, "This is Miss Lilith, the Supreme Secretary of the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire."

This is His Excellency the current Emperor of the Wraith Dragon Interstellar Empire.

Lilith nodded slightly, her expression unchanged.

Zhao Chen put down his teacup and pointed to the seat opposite him: "Please."

Hua Ya Lanlan didn't stand on ceremony and sat down.

"I have long heard of the name Huaya Lanlan."

I heard that the Bailan Interstellar Trading Group was predicted to have gone bankrupt as early as twenty years ago.

However, after you took over the Bailan Interstellar Trade Group, you pulled it back from the brink of collapse.

"He managed to extend his life by twenty years," Zhao Chenqian said with a slight smile.

"Your Majesty's praise is just my luck."

It cannot compare to His Majesty the Emperor's magnificent achievements.

In less than ten years, they established a unified interstellar empire in a universe and raised the level of civilization in the entire interstellar universe from the previous T4 level.

Within ten years, it was directly upgraded to the T6 level.

When faced with the invasion of order and the encroachment of civilization, we are not afraid of the strong and will fight to the death.

Become the first interstellar civilization to be invaded by a devouring civilization, yet still manage to defeat the invading enemy and repel the invading fleet!

It is my honor to meet His Majesty Emperor Xiaolong.

Sure enough, as an interstellar trader, he's quite the smooth talker.

Zhao Chen remained expressionless and continued, "Since we meet here today..."

I presume Miss Hanaya Nini has already told Miss Lanlan the purpose of our visit.

Let's not waste time talking nonsense.

In the eyes of you interstellar traders, time is money.

Now, could you please tell me your reply?

Are you willing to form an alliance with our Dragonflight Interstellar Empire?

Zhao Chen got straight to the point and brought up the matter at hand.

Hua Ya Lanlan hadn't expected that this Emperor of the Dragons would be so direct and get straight to the point.

She paused for a moment, then quickly recovered and said with a smile, "I am truly surprised by Emperor Xiaolong's straightforwardness."

I also like this kind of straightforward communication.

Since Emperor Xiaolong has been so direct...

Then I don't need to say anything more.

This alliance... I cannot give an answer right now.

It's not that we're unwilling, but such an important matter requires our discussion and consideration.

After all, this concerns the future of the Bailan Interstellar Trading Group!

Zhao Chen didn't say anything, but picked up his teacup and drank.

The atmosphere suddenly felt off.

Lilith then spoke up: "You need to think about this; it's only human nature."

We can give you time to think about it.

After saying that.

Lilith pointed to a 'thread' that was being blown about not far away. The 'thread' was burning, and wisps of smoke could be seen coming out of the flames under the light.

"That's a specialty of one of our star regions in the Dragon Empire, Dragon Tiger Incense."

Those who hear it feel refreshed and clear-headed.

It took about thirty minutes for this single incense stick to burn completely.

Lilith's eyes gradually turned cold: "I think, as the highest executive of the White Orchid Interstellar Trade Group..."

Half an hour should be enough time for Miss Lanlan to make a decision.

Hua Ya Lanlan was startled, not expecting the other party to be so relentlessly pressing her.

"Half an hour... this... we Flower Fairies are always cautious when discussing matters, isn't half an hour a bit too short?" Hua Ya Lanlan said, forcing herself to speak.

"Half an hour is not long, but it's enough to make a decision."

After all, our Dragon Star Empire is facing many things right now, and the fact that His Majesty the Emperor took the time to travel such a long distance to come here is enough to show how much importance he attaches to this matter.

But we can't waste too much time here.

So, you only have this half hour left.

"No... there are only twenty-nine minutes left." Lilith smiled slightly at this moment.

However, in Huaya Lanlan's eyes, this smile revealed a hint of coldness.

She had previously held some prejudice against this succubus, since rumors suggested that many interstellar civilizations and universes actually had succubi, or creatures similar to succubi.

But most of them are creatures that primarily rely on beauty, desire, and allure.

If a powerful emperor has such a beautiful succubus by his side, everyone would subconsciously assume that she is just a 'plaything' kept by the emperor.

But the aggressive tone of these words reveals that Lilith is not just a succubus.

Her identity as the Supreme Secretary of the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire was absolutely genuine.

Hua Yalan took a deep breath.

She looked at Lilith and the Dragon Emperor, and said seriously, "You asked my sister to pass on this message to you."

They said that as long as I am willing to form an alliance with you, you can fully support and back our Bailan Interstellar Trade Group.

Let our Bailan Interstellar Trade Group become the strongest interstellar trade group in the Fairy Federation tribe in a short period of time.

And they can control the resources of the entire Flower Fairy Federation tribe!

How do I know if you can help us do this?

It's important to understand that even the most powerful interstellar trading group within the Flower Fairy Federation currently controls less than 30% of the Flower Fairy Federation's market resources.

Lilith smiled calmly and said, "As far as I know, although your Fairy Federation tribes do not nominally deal in arms transactions..."

But actually, they only don't touch the finished interstellar warships, right?

Some important interstellar warship spare parts are still being procured and sold.

Take, for example, the shipment you delivered to Jinshan County this time.

Because there are some situations where interstellar civilizations cannot directly trade with each other.

However, with you acting as intermediaries, you can handle the purchasing, sales, and transportation processes.

Even opposing sides can buy the goods they want from each other through you.

Your Flower Fairy Federation tribe also relied on this to grow strong.”

Huaya Lanlan nodded.

"And in all the market transactions you are conducting."

The market share of military industry still reached 33%, the market share of civilian industry reached 23%, the market share of food reached 11%, and the remaining 33% consisted of raw materials, civilian goods, and other types of interstellar trade.

"Am I right?" Lilith said slowly.

Hua Ya Lanlan was surprised. These data were extremely accurate, which was a secret even within the Flower Fairy Federation tribe.

Unexpectedly, this secretary of the Dragon Empire knew everything about it.

"You're right."

Lilith continued, "But if we follow another algorithm, 40% of your revenue actually comes from interstellar transportation."

To be honest, your Fairy Federation tribe is just a middleman and interstellar transporter.

Hua Ya Lanlan nodded silently.

"I think Miss Lanlan must have already learned a lot about our Xiaolong Interstellar Empire before she came here."

"Our industrial strength, if not number one, is certainly among the top three in the many interstellar civilizations and universes," Lilith said with a smile.

Huaya Lanlan nodded.

"You won't sell finished interstellar warships."

But what if it's a spaceship component made with JF-17 Thunder engines?

Even the weapon modules, starship engines, and core energy sources of a certain JF-17 series interstellar warship. "Lilith really is like a succubus, gradually seducing Huaya Lanlan."

Hua Ya Nini's eyes were shining.

She was well aware of the value of these goods!

These products don't need any promotion at all; as long as they're released, someone will definitely want them.

because!

JF-17 series military products.

The battle record is verifiable!

That alone is the biggest advertisement.

"Furthermore, as I just mentioned, you are essentially interstellar transporters, delivering sellers' products to buyers."

They earn a commission, a profit margin, and a transportation fee.

You have roughly these three sums of money in your basket.

But as far as I know, the interstellar transport ships you are currently using are very outdated. The vast majority of them are still T3-level interstellar transport ships, with only a small number of T4 interstellar transport ships.

The number of T5-class interplanetary transport ships is extremely small.

Sometimes, in order to meet transportation needs, T2 and T1 class interstellar transport ships have to be deployed to carry out missions, resulting in losses even if they are not attacked by interstellar pirates during the transportation process.

But what if we could provide you with a T5-class interplanetary transport ship?

Even their production lines and manufacturing technology!

As Hana-ya Lan-lan listened to Lilith's words, it was as if a little devil was emerging in her mind, using its seductive voice to tempt her little by little.

And they're still two little devils.

A little devil was describing the benefits of those JF-17 series products.

The other little devil was holding a T5-class interstellar transport ship and slowly telling her the story.

"Of course, if we have a pleasant collaboration in the future."

"A T6-class interstellar transport ship isn't out of the question." Lilith delivered another heavy blow to Hana-chan's heart!
