The original Ten Thousand Worlds Merchant Alliance was just a small and medium-sized merchant and transport fleet in the vast sea of stars in the outer world of the true human empire.
It was a simple commercial organization that exchanged information and stayed together for warmth.
But business and politics have never been separate.
Only by mastering political power and even the most fundamental force can we plunder and defend commercial interests to the greatest extent.
Money naturally possesses supreme magic power and supreme supernatural power.
The newly born Ten Thousand Worlds Merchant Alliance instantly realized this truth.
At any cost, it extended its weak tentacles into the whirlpool of power in the peripheral world of the empire and cultivated "Di Feiwen".
"Such an excellent representative.
But at that time, the Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance was still very weak and immature, and was completely unable to compete with the monopolistic business groups, oligarchs and plutocrats under the four Electoral Prince families.
Today is different from the past.
The meeting between the Imperial Queen Li Linghai and the Wanjie Merchant Alliance was a perfect match and they hit it off immediately.
In just a few decades, the two sides supported each other, rose rapidly, and expanded silently.
Especially the "Empire Strikes Back" in the past ten years has given the All Realms Business Alliance the best opportunity for explosive development.
"When a cannon is fired, there are ten thousand taels of gold."
This means that the daily consumption in war is astronomical, and it also means that the benefits of making a fortune from war are immeasurable.
Today's empire is a situation of rising princes and local chaos.
The so-called "emperor" is composed of fleets from hundreds of worlds, and they are very independent of each other.
The only thing that the Expeditionary Force Base Camp can effectively check and balance various warlords and miscellaneous armies is logistical supplies.
Food, ammunition, and treasures of heaven and earth are the throat.
As long as the throat is pinched, no matter how unruly the warlords and miscellaneous troops are, they have to obey the orders of the expeditionary force's base camp and dare not act rashly.
Of course, the various warlords and miscellaneous armies were not willing to sit back and wait for death.
They became the knives in the hands of the four Electoral Prince families to gnaw at the hardest bones of the Holy Alliance.
If you want to gain greater independence, you must open up a new source of logistical supplies outside the expeditionary force's base camp.
At least, 95% of the time, the warlords are willing to obey orders from the expeditionary force base camp.
But on rare occasions, when these warlords want to act on their own, "for the glory of the empire", ignore the orders of the expeditionary force headquarters and launch an "active attack", they must be able to gather enough ordnance, ammunition and supplies on their own.
Of course, the warlords' "active attack" is not to do good deeds in vain, but to "recover" a planet, break its bones, suck out its marrow, loot it, and plunder it completely.
Then, the large amount of resources squeezed out naturally have no reason to be sent back to their home base through the expeditionary force base camp.
Isn't this a sheep entering a tiger's mouth and falling into a trap?
This requires a large enough transport fleet.
The people in the fleet must be bold desperadoes, and they must be tied to the same interests as the local warlords and motley crews in order to bypass the expeditionary force's base camp and help them from there.
They secretly transported war supplies from the rear, and then helped them smuggle the loot back to their hometown.
Besides the Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance, who else can play such a role?
Therefore, during the Empire's counterattack for more than ten years, the merchant alliance and the warlords, local gangsters and motley crews in the outer world of the empire were in love with their concubines, colluded with each other, and fought fiercely.
To put it simply, the Wanjie Commercial Alliance gathered the money and resources of the emerging business classes in the peripheral world of the empire in the form of secret war bonds, etc., and secretly supported small and medium-sized warlords to carry out adventures and plunders on the front line, and plundered to The benefits are shared equally by everyone.
After more than ten years, one can imagine the degree of collusion between the two sides.
The Wanjie Merchant Alliance, which is deeply trusted by local warlords and miscellaneous armies, has even opened up a business.
They can help the warlords on the front line sneak the most powerful, firepower, and thickest armored main battleships back to their hometowns to hide.
They got up, but reported to the expeditionary force base camp that "the so-and-so starship was seriously damaged in the fierce battle, had completely disintegrated, and was annihilated in the violent explosion."
In this way, local warlords can preserve their strength and ask for more benefits from the expeditionary force base camp.
The Wanjie Merchant Alliance had helped local warlords and motley crews do so many shady things, so naturally it had mastered a lot of secrets and became an effective source of intelligence for Li Linghai.
Also, many times, when warlord troops from distant worlds cannot get effective supplies and do not want to see the face of the expeditionary force base camp, they often exchange supplies with other warlord troops and trade the spoils they have just obtained.
This business is also the overall arrangement of the Wanjie Commercial Alliance.
It was just a temporary emergency at first, but as the Imperial Expeditionary Force recovered more and more worlds and resource planets, and the loot secretly falling into the pockets of warlords and motley crews became increasingly rich, the scale of this transaction became larger and larger.
Finally, there is even a sense of being able to "support war with war and become self-sufficient".
The so-called control power of the military is nothing more than personnel power and financial power.

After more than ten years of infiltration and planning by the Ten Thousand Worlds Merchant Alliance, it has helped the local warlords partially get rid of the financial constraints of the expeditionary force headquarters and gain greater independence.
Moreover, through frequent trade, the warlords who were originally scattered across the star sea and were not very familiar with each other became aware of each other's existence, established a strong bond of interest, and even vaguely realized that... after uniting with each other, A force that cannot be underestimated!
Therefore, Jin Yuyan, the chairman of the Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance, is definitely an important member of the "revolutionary" camp.
If Li Linghai's ambition of "respecting the emperor, fighting against rebellion, and innovating with divine weapons" can really be realized, Jin Yuyan is even very likely to serve as the "chief finance minister of the true human empire".
Unlike the spy leader "Moon Demon" Yue Wushuang, who was surrounded by black mist and remained silent, the future imperial finance minister Jin Yuyan saluted everyone with a smile.
Even when meeting Li Yao, who looked very young for the first time, there was nothing unnatural about him.
It was as if he and Li Yao were colleagues who had been ministers in the same palace for many years.
His movements and gestures were just right, making him feel like a spring breeze and change his body.
Feeling of relaxation.
Jin Yuyan had just finished saluting everyone, and seven or eight slightly blurry and dim figures appeared around him.
They were all core members of the reformist faction dormant in the imperial court, politics, economics and various fields.
Li Yao secretly thought in his heart, it seems that the "Blood Alliance Incident" did have a great impact on the reformists, forcing Li Linghai and others to the point where they were so desperate that they would jump over the wall.
If not, so many reformists would never be able to do so.
It is impossible to show up in public and gather together.
"Okay, all fellow Taoists are here, we can begin."
Li Linghai piloted the floating saucer and flew among the empty and solid people.
There was no trace of panic or anxiety on his face.
His eyes slowly scanned the surroundings, but it seemed to have rekindled everyone's faith.
She did not call herself the "Queen of the Empire", but she called these reformist bigwigs "fellow Taoists", obviously treating them all as like-minded comrades-in-arms.
"I have sent the detailed information of the 'Blood Alliance Incident' to the virtual light screen in front of you.
For us, this incident was indeed caught off guard, and the consequences were quite serious, pushing our cause into the abyss.
's edge."
Li Linghai seemed to hate the title "I" very much.
She was always straightforward and did not cover up the impact of the "Blood Alliance Incident", but she changed the subject and said, "However, the power of our reformists is far beyond that of the enemy."
I will never give up halfway and wait for death!
“Countless people with lofty ideals who have the heart to ‘renovate the empire’ are joining our camp one after another.
Every day, our strength becomes greater than yesterday.
“Before we officially start the discussion, let me introduce you to Taoist Fellow Li Yao.
"Fellow Daoist Li fought alongside me decades ago and has been performing the most secretive and arduous tasks.
He not only possesses the cultivation of the realm of gods, but also possesses the very rare dual talent of combat and creation.
He is an outstanding warrior.
Weapon master.
"In the past, he has been secretly protecting our cause, and even made great sacrifices for it, so that even though he is a dignified god, he is unknown throughout the empire.
"But today, our cause is at its most critical juncture, and I have to let Fellow Daoist Li surface to temporarily serve as my personal bodyguard and magic weapon advisor, and work together with everyone to overcome the difficulties.
At the same time, we must also let our enemies, Pay the heaviest price!”
With no expression on his face, Li Yao slowly flew to Li Linghai's side and nodded slightly to everyone.
"Um?"
It was the first time for many of the reformist leaders who appeared at the end to hear the name Li Yao.
However, they are still very clear about the value of an old monster who is proficient in combat and weapon refining.
Seeing Li Yao and Li Linghai standing so close, my heart became clear, knowing that they were the Queen's confidants.
Casually, he took out an old monster who transformed into a spirit from his pocket.
The queen's strength was really unfathomable.
Who knew if she had more unknown hidden secrets, lurking in the empire's most lethal points?
Many reformist bigwigs who were initially panicked and confused by the "Blood Alliance Incident" have now calmed down.
Li Linghai wanted this effect.

He smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, gentlemen.
There are many pure immortal cultivators like Li Daoyou who love the empire infinitely and are loyal to His Majesty the Emperor.
As long as the time is right, they will rise up!"
Li Yao took a deep breath and forced himself not to laugh.
He found that the Queen of the Empire, Li Linghai, sometimes had a weird sense of humor.
"Well, let's start the discussion."
Li Linghai put away his smile, widened his eyes, and strong murderous aura suddenly spewed out from his almost transparent pupils, "How on earth are we going to survive in this precarious situation and carve out a bloody path?"
