Because the local swarms had been cleared by the army of Prince Xin, the reinforcements sent by Cohen easily landed near the mine.
The two Marine Divisions drove down from the landing ship and merged with the four Marine Divisions already stationed nearby to build a strong fortification.
The next three landing ships carried the engineering battalion's vehicles and equipment. As soon as these engineers came out of the landing ship, they began to get busy. They emptied the surrounding trees, compacted the ground, and then poured alloy floors and erected walls. A few hours later, the prototype of a human base was completed.
At the same time, Cohen transmitted the electricity back to the Capital Star of the Earth Federation!
At this moment, in the federal parliament building, a group of politicians are arguing about some trivial matters. They are arguing in parliament for the family behind them and for their own interests. .
Especially when it comes to energy crystals, these guys are so noisy that they have to overturn the roof of the parliament hall. Where is there a bit of aristocratic gentleman appearance?
"No! We must get 20% of this batch of crystals!"
"Dream! You get twenty percent. How else can we produce energy cannons?"
"I'll take care of you! At Verazin's Nazick Metal we can give up 50%, but the energy crystal is definitely not negotiable!"
...
At this time, President Claude quietly walked into the parliament hall.
Theoretically, the president generally does not participate in parliament, because the parliamentary name is an organization that checks and balances the power of the president, but in fact, the rights of the entire federation are almost controlled by them. Instead, the president checks and balances, or mediates the interests of these families. People.
"Master, why are you here?" A blond old man first spotted Claude entering the parliament hall.
"Oh, Speaker Barn, I'm here to send the good news." Crowder always smiled, but no one knew what he was thinking.
"Good news?" Speaker Barn frowned, at which point Crowder had walked straight to the podium.
"Slap! Slap! Slap!" Claude patted the microphone, and the people below quieted down gradually. Although those big families didn't buy the president's bills, they still had to respect the president.
"Dear ladies and gentlemen ..." Claude's opening remarks are still old-fashioned, but they have indeed successfully attracted everyone's attention.
"I came here this time to bring you good news." Crowder still said unhurriedly.
Upon hearing the good news, the ears of these parliamentarians have become edgy. These so-called parliamentarians are no longer representatives of the people. They all represent the interests of their respective families. As for the so-called election, it is just a comedy Nothing more.
"According to the latest news from the front line, our fighting hero, Qin Hao! He once again opened up the territory for the success of the Federation!" Claude said with a look of excitement, but the members of the lower parliament looked indifferent.
The family behind these legislators is not at all interested in the land of Alpha Star, because the Zerg is too fierce, and colonial Alpha Star is currently impossible to achieve, even if it is unrealistic to open small settlements .
Therefore, the land of Alpha Star has no meaning to these families at all. Even if the scenery there is so beautiful, they will not risk being eaten by insects to go sightseeing there. After all, the huge universe is picturesque and picturesque. More places to go.
"..." Claude paused for two seconds. He glanced at the indifferent so-called nobles below. They heard such exciting news, but they were not proud of the frontline soldiers. I hate these nobles even more.
"And!" Although the lawmakers said nothing at all, Claude had to continue: "And during this military operation, Qin Hao once again captured an energy crystal mine!"
"what?!"
"Great! Another mine!"
"Hahaha! The production of Zhengchou crystal is insufficient and not enough for distribution. Now it's fine, and more crystals can be mined!"
...
For a moment, the members of the parliament below were noisy, forming a stark contrast with the indifference just now.
Interest, this is the only thing that can move these nobles! There was a smile in the corners of Speaker Bath, whose perennial emotions were indescribable.
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't make a noise!" Crowder pressed his hands, and immediately calmed down. These members of Parliament did not give Claude face ~ www.novelhall.com ~ but gave energy crystal face!
"The energy crystal veins seized this time are not considered rich. Although the crystals are of good quality, according to the news from the front line, the crystals in this mine are relatively fine and are not enough to make naval guns." Crow Germany continued.
"This way ..." Several members were disappointed with disappointment. The family behind them was specialized in naval gun production. They had thought that they could get a share of the money, but they didn't expect to be happy.
But in contrast, the families that mainly produce individual energy guns and anti-aircraft fire guns are happy.
"Yes, my purpose here is very simple." Crowder pressed his hands again to calm the councillors before he said, "I now need a general and a military rank in exchange for, All the output of this mine is distributed by yourself! "
Because he was completely disappointed with these aristocrats, Crowder didn't say those sounding phrases, he opened the door and said his purpose.
In the eyes of ordinary people, those top senior officials and nobles may be a lot of mantras, in front of a set of hypocrites, but in fact, these so-called people do not disdain camouflage when there are no outsiders, they The mouth is full of the benefits of red fruit! All undisguised benefits exchange!
After speaking of his own conditions, Claude turned to look at Speaker Barn. This swordsman of the Stonemasonry Association is the vane of the entire parliament. As long as he nods, other lawmakers will hardly oppose it.
"What do you think?" Speaker Barn looked around for a week. All the members of the parliament looked at him, their eyes were longing for benefits. As for the rank of a school, this is not a valuable thing in their eyes. After all It is too easy for the children of the big family to be promoted.
