Chapter 829: Chapter 827 I Like the Unconventional
"Mr. Zhang, rest assured, not only does the planet you bought not require taxation, but the ten Level Two civilizations you gave to your friends also won’t need to pay taxes in the future. I’ll personally arrange it."
O’Lawrence wasn’t a fool. Although this would cause him to lose so benefits, in the long run, it was definitely a very worthwhile trade. Their civilization now had soone who could command a Level Five fleet. Who in the entire Twin Whales Cosmic Empire would dare ss with the Milky Way in the future?
"Well, thank you very much, Mr. O’Lawrence," Zhang nglong said. "I’ll be residing in the Milky Way from now on. If there are any threats to the Milky Way, let
know in advance!"
"Yes!" A smile appeared on O’Lawrence’s face.
This big shot was going to permanently reside in the Milky Way! That ant his fleet would always be stationed there. He’s practically a Guardian God!
"Soone, co!" O’Lawrence imdiately ordered.
"Lord, what do you need?" His subordinates imdiately appeared by his side.
"Go to the Milky Way Comprehensive Governance Office, and make sure that planet marked with the number EV7RYVF54, along with the ten Level Two civilizations within the Izek civilization’s domain, are permanently exempt from taxes!"
"Lord, this..." His subordinate hesitated a bit. The Milky Way wasn’t considered a very large Level Three civilization, with only over a hundred Level Two civilizations in its jurisdiction. This was equivalent to losing 10% of their annual inco, which was no small number.
"Just do it," O’Lawrence said. "Maybe one day, our Milky Way civilization could beco untouchable within the entire Twin Whales Cosmic Empire!"
...
"Ah! The weather is so nice!"
Stepping out of the room, Zhang nglong stretched comfortably. Since he now owned Earth’s sovereignty, he had to start adding tiles to this civilization that had just stepped onto the cosmic stage.
"Gou Dan, if I want to buy a warship, is there a way?"
"Dean, in the Universal Chain Supermarket, if you can think of it, you can buy it," Gou Dan said. "Warships from Level One to Level Five civilizations can all be purchased there."
"Wow, another of my own businesses." Zhang nglong recalled that in the dividend records of his bank account, the shareholder dividends from the Universal Chain Supermarket were among the top.
"You currently own 37.33% of the shares, tying with another shareholder as the largest shareholder of the Universal Chain Supermarket."
"However..."
"However what?" Zhang nglong said. "As a shareholder, it shouldn’t be difficult to get so warships, right? At worst, I can pay!"
"Dean, it’s not quite like that," Gou Dan said. "The universe has its own order. Not everyone can purchase warships."
"What do you an?"
"Think about it. If a planet is very wealthy and everyone has a warship, wouldn’t that throw the entire civilization into chaos?"
"True!" Zhang nglong nodded. For instance, on Earth, in Arica, citizens are legally allowed to own guns, which leads to frequent shootings and terrorist incidents.
Even if a civilization owns its own fleet, once unrest occurs, if those with warships suddenly revolt, the blow to a civilization would be devastating.
"According to Universal Alliance laws, Level One civilizations are not allowed to build standard ship fleets, and at most can only have a defensive fleet with fewer than 100 ships."
A standard civilization fleet’s definition, for example, Level Two elentary civilizations, would be 1,000 Level Two elentary civilization warships, 10 Level Two dium civilization warships, and 1 Level Two high-grade command warship, and so on.
Only Level Five civilizations can expand their fleets and forces without restriction. Other levels of civilizations can have at most 10 standard fleets of their respective levels.
"Dean, although your wealth is imasurable, you are now only a Lord of a Level One elentary civilization, so no matter where you buy warships through official channels, you can only purchase 100 warships no higher than Level One high-grade civilizations.
"Damn! What kind of shit rules are these!" Zhang nglong was speechless. "I’ll just buy it. Who dares to stop ?"
"If you put it that way, indeed no one dares," Gou Dan said, "but those sellers are also bound by cosmic laws. Unless you can directly get the Universal Alliance to and the law, and that’s not just about rounding up and giving those lawmakers a beating."
"It is a bit troubleso," Zhang nglong currently could only summon the power of a Level Six Life Form’s teacher. If big trouble arises, he also can’t imdiately find his ancestors to help him.
"Then what should we do?"
"I said, the normal process won’t work, but there are always unorthodox ways!" Gou Dan said. "Where there’s light, there’s darkness. As long as you have money, there’s nothing that can’t be done."
"You an doing sothing underhanded?"
"Bingo!" Gou Dan said. "If you buy a fleet, it needs to be bound to your civilization, but the specific use of the fleet is not restricted at all. No traffic cops will check you here."
"Makes sense!"
"You just need to purchase ships already bound to so civilizations through so channels."
"So, do I need to find Level Five civilizations?" Zhang nglong asked.
According to Zhang nglong’s current understanding, this was really tough!
The Twin Whales Cosmic Empire was just a very ordinary Level Five civilization, strictly speaking, still at Level Five elentary civilization. Their civilization was not very wealthy and probably didn’t have many standard fleets. Where would they have surplus ships to sell to Zhang nglong?
"It’s not that complicated," Gou Dan said. "Even if you find a Level Five civilization, from placing an order to receiving it, it would take a lot of ti."
"Is there an easier way?"
"Have you heard of shell companies, Host?"
"Of course," Zhang nglong said. "Just so companies using tricks to evade taxes."
"In the universe, there are many shell civilizations because so cosmic disasters have wiped out civilizations. While they no longer have any life, these civilizations still remain in the Universal Alliance. So people use these shell civilizations for business, trafficking various items like ships, slaves, etc., all in stock!"
"This sounds like a black market?"
"This indeed doesn’t differ much from a black market," Gou Dan said. "Although the Universal Alliance has always tried to crack down, they have never been eradicated. In fact, their power and wealth accumulated over countless ages, to so extent, can even rival the Universal Alliance!"
"So now we need to find a black market? Where?"
"How would I know?" Gou Dan said. "Black markets are usually mobile. Otherwise, are they waiting for the Universal Alliance to catch them? Have you ever seen a street vendor not run when they see city managent?"
"That’s as good as saying nothing!"
"Brother Zhang!" At this mont, a spaceship landed, and Ireel excitedly walked over from the ship.
"What’s up? What’s making you so happy?" Zhang nglong laughed.
"Do you have ti lately?" Ireel asked. "I’ll take you to broaden your horizons!"
Although Ireel knew Zhang nglong was extrely rich, filthy rich, from Zhang nglong’s words and actions, it was clear that even Level Two civilizations were novel to him. So, he was sure that Zhang nglong was just a country guy who suddenly inherited his ancestors’ wealth, missing out on many experiences.
"I have so ti. What do you want to show ?"
"Heh heh!" Ireel took out two circular thin plates, seemingly made of diamond, each less than palm-sized. "Take you to a nice place!"
"Is it legit?" Zhang nglong blurted out, "I prefer things that aren’t legit!"
