Chapter Six Hundred and Eighty Fifth Plot
The adjutant hesitated for a while, and said: "General, as far as I know, Marshal Capulo seems to be very interested in that Bethkind named Allen. I heard that the reason why General Catherine came together with him seems to be Marshal's instruction."
"Then our respected Marshal Wild Lion is really a bit lenient." Ke Meng laughed, and changed his posture and said solemnly: "Okay, I have my own sense of proportion in this matter. I also agree with Marshal Capulo's thoughts." I have heard a little bit, not to mention that I shot Beth Keld not just because of a Catherine. Aiden, you have been with me for seven years, don't you think I will go to war because of a woman. Hey, what I plotted , but not just a general, the interests involved are complicated."
"Yes, it's the subordinates who are stupid." The adjutant lowered his head and served the Comont and Grant families for seven years. He had already learned not to ask about things.
Ke Meng waved his hand and changed the subject: "As for that Bethkind, what actions does Catherine have?"
"I heard that rescue has been dispatched. The third forward battalion is going to support, and the leader is Latis Shangwei."
"That nigger? It's a bit difficult to handle. That guy has a bad temper, and he probably won't listen to my orders." Ke Meng stood up, stretched his waist and said, "It seems that I still have to go to the surface by myself." A trip, Aiden, go and equip me with a set of equipment, so that no one can see it. Catherine told her that I was slightly injured and needed to enter the repair machine, and we will not be able to meet in twelve hours. "
"Your subordinate will do it now, but General, you really need to take a break..."
"It's just the original dark light of the Dark Titan, it's okay. This little injury won't prevent me from killing a kid who isn't even an awakener." Ke Meng laughed dryly.
The adjutant said no more, nodded and left. After he left, the smile on Ke Meng's face froze, and an unnatural black light appeared on the surface of his skin. These black lights flowed like thousands of little snakes on the surface of the body, as if they were flowing through Ke Meng's blood vessels. After a while, it returned to normal. Ke Meng scolded: "It's so troublesome, these damned dark titans, damned original dark light, it's so troublesome to get rid of!"
He shook his head, leaned on the chair and sat down, his breathing slightly disturbed. But he didn't give up his plan to go to the ground battlefield. Just like Ke Meng himself said, killing Allen was not as simple as because of his close relationship with Catherine. Not long ago, a batch of Themes silver suddenly appeared on the black market in Babylon. As soon as this batch of precious metals entered the market, it immediately attracted the attention of many parties.
Among them, the Grant's family responded the fastest, and immediately spent a lot of money to take the goods as their own. Randomly obtained relevant information about this batch of goods from black merchants, and learned that the Themes silver was actually sold by the Bethkind family. The Bethkind family has several colonial planets, and the minerals produced must not contain the precious metal Theames silver. Those few colonial planets have been developed almost, and the possibility of discovering new veins can basically be ruled out.
Then, apart from the possibility of new ore veins,
There is only another possibility, that is, the Bethkind family has mastered another colonial planet with Themes silver. Now selling this batch of goods in the form of black market transactions may be to test the market's reaction and prepare for future sales.
As the most potential family in Babylon, which wealthy family would not pay attention to all the developments of Bethkind? Naturally, there is no lack of information about this family in the intelligence system of the Grant family, and now the information shows that Bethkind does not have any extra colonial stars, except for the heaven star that Allen accidentally discovered. As for the Paradise Star, it had already been rated as "rich in resources" in the Federation's evaluation.
The Grant family even sent a team to start developing the Paradise Star as well, but the intensity and progress of the development were not as smooth as Bethkind's. Combined with this information, it is not difficult to think that the Themes silver on the black market comes from Paradise Star. If this planet has such a precious metal vein, it is hard to guarantee that there will not be other rare associated mines such as the Shadow Star Diamond. In this way, the value of Paradise Star will be doubled several times.
There is no doubt that such a resource-rich planet should be monopolized by the federal government. But firstly, Paradise Star was not discovered by the Federation, and secondly, Allen and the family he represented had already taken root on this colonial planet. The federation is unwilling to follow through on the truth, and because of a planet that has caused a deterioration in the relationship with the nobles, it simply opened it up to a few families as a public resource.
But if the Federation knows that there are rare products such as Themes silver on the planet Paradise, there is no guarantee that President Morbit will not change his mind. Therefore, the sooner the Heaven Star is developed, more territories are occupied, and even the right to develop this planet is taken over, that is the best way for any family to enhance the family's strength. Now on Paradise Planet, Bethkind is developing the most. Ke Meng even heard that they are already starting to build a landing base to accept more starships into the planet.
It is foreseeable that once this base is built, with the influx of a large number of starships, Bethkind will be able to establish a relatively stable interstellar business route before the various families. At that time, when the trade between Paradise Star and Earth is on track, then Bethkind, or Allen's development speed on Paradise Star will be unparalleled. This is what the Grant family didn't want to see, so when Ke Meng learned that Allen was on Rinfrost, he happened to participate in the general attack on Rinfrost. The general from the Grant family couldn't help but make a bold assumption about what would happen if Allen died in this war.
The conclusion is that, at least on Paradise, Bethkind's colonial career will suffer a huge blow. And the one with the greatest interest is the Grant family. So what happened next became logical, and it went to a deeper level. Ke Meng is in charge of this action against Allen. Once successful, he will make great contributions, and his power in the family will be further consolidated and improved, thus gaining more resources. Therefore, whether in public or private, Ke Meng felt that it was imperative.
Before arriving at Linshuang, he had asked the family elders for instructions. The only ones who objected to his action were Dornier, Comont's eldest brother, and the head of the Grant family. But even if Dornier tried his best to oppose it, it still couldn't dampen the enthusiasm of other elders. The flames in their hearts were moved by the report submitted by Ke Meng, the data about the future income of Heavenly Star, and finally the elders passed Ke Meng's action request and agreed to him to take charge of the operation.
"Wait, brother. Kill Alan, I will be the biggest contributor to the family. At that time, I'm afraid you will have to move your position." Ke Meng smiled lowly, this is the real plot hidden under all interests.
