Chapter 28 Ten years later

4483, the end of the year, the retired space station

In a blink of an eye, 10 years have passed, just like what Bai Yu wrote at the Naval Academy, the beginning of each year-end summary: "Time flies, and time passes."

Old Jack's cloning technology has gradually gained the attention of some people in the federal government. Who doesn't want it? Especially when this hope becomes the last straw that people can grasp when they die. The morality and human nature they proclaim have become worthless dust. Mr. 4418 has become a broker of some federal lawmakers and wealthy businessmen. There is no way, the situation is stronger than others. Among these people, the lowest level is his post, and none of them can afford it. Old Jack began to secretly travel between the capital galaxy and the retired space station with his cloning technology.

Li Deshi is already well-known in the black market. He no longer has to run around frequently. As long as he stays in the communication room of the space station, he can conduct various transactions with those black market merchants and smugglers who come to the door in several galaxies outside the space station. Now, he has become the most leisurely person on the space station. Therefore, he is responsible for the logistics of the entire retired space station and has also practiced a very good cooking skill. Now, he is behind the bar in the bar, making wine for everyone, and from time to time, he also glances at the luxurious menu for tomorrow's dinner. Tomorrow is November 17, which is the birthday of Bai Yu and Bai Ling, and it is also destined to be the saddest day for these two girls. Food can make Bai Yu temporarily forget the past, and alcohol can make everyone remember it. Bai Ling under the black robe can also laugh.

Lyon squatted in the repair dock all day long, improving various ship parts and repairing ships damaged by others in the battle. Although only the artificial intelligence named Elizabeth helped him, he talked about it with relish. However, the psychedelic agent he sucked finally made him addicted. Fortunately, it was not fatal, and there were always many of those things in the plunder of robbers. Since he didn't have to spend money to buy it, Bai Yu and Roy were too lazy to care about him.

As for Roy and Clautia, the relationship between them is even closer. Ola even joked several times, allowing the two to simply live in a room, saving the trouble of running around in the corridors of the two rooms in the middle of the night. Roy and Clautia are already very immune to Ola's gossip and still do whatever they want. In addition, this pair of male and female evil spirits has already made the pirates in the Syndicate Star Field frightened. One year, several pirate groups with great prominence in the syndicate pirate world even contacted this mysterious 'black ace' and wanted to pay regular tributes to ensure peace, but Bai Yu disagreed: "What if their robbery indicators exceed the contributions?! Retired people eat anything, they can't suffer any loss!"

In addition to occasionally fighting Qiufeng and occasionally following Bai Yu to take on the mission of the General Administration of Intelligence, Samson often set up a ship alone to pass through the Caprent Galaxy to deliver personal belongings to Princess Sophia and Bai Yu, and secretly deliver letters of state and negotiation agreements to the Galente Federation and Emma Empire, just like secretly passing love letters and notes to two children who started their first love.

Bai Ling's position among the Bloody Attackers is becoming increasingly stable, and even attracted the jealousy of other black-clothed bishops. In order to avoid the limelight, she sometimes stays in the retired space station. However, I don't know if it's too deep into the play or a psychological self-protection, but the black robe of the Bloody Attackers is unwilling to take off. Fortunately, Roy and others are getting used to it. A bloody Attacker floats around in the space station, and they no longer subconsciously want to touch the pistol.

Ola was very dissatisfied with the names everyone gave to her clones. Although those clones were completely related to them, the space station was safer under her protection. Several surrounding galaxies were installed with probes, and her passing ships were closely monitored by her, and other facilities instantly got rid of the needs of manpower. Even under the modification of Lyon, Ola herself could not rely on the main program and control the warships to patrol nearby.

As for Bai Yu, she is now in the communication room, engaging in the farthest span in the history of the universe...small chat.

"How about those candied fruits for those Empire specialties?" Sophia asked with a smile on the monitor.

Bai Yu nodded and said without hesitation: "It's quite good, it's a little less. Oh, have you received the Coofei I sent to you?"

"Samson passed it to me, and I also offered some to His Majesty the Emperor. He is considering letting your Federation's Kufei Group establish a production line within the empire, but he wants to take the stake in his personal name." Sophia said with a smile.

"Wow, if Kufei Group knew, she would have laughed so hard. The Emperor of the Empire would work with them. Haha, I really dare not think about it. Speaking of which, your Emperor is really a business-minded, and it would be a pity to be an emperor." Bai Yu smiled so hard that his stomach hurt.

Sophia was already used to Bai Yu's sarcasm to the emperor, but just smiled slightly without refuting.

"By the way, I heard from Samson that you have been criticized by a lot of nobles recently? What happened?" Bai Yu asked.

Sophia's face was not particularly good after hearing this: "I just went to the slave market and personally picked a few poor Starkmani children, but I didn't expect that even you would know."

"This is a matter. Your nobles are really idle and have nothing to do. The princess will also discuss buying a few slaves. But after hearing Samson's words, they seemed to be very dissatisfied with this matter. What did they say about you?" Bai Yu asked.

"Those nobles are really idle and have nothing to do. They all have ancient families that have been operating in the empire for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. They all have huge family businesses. Typical people who are 'three no worries' all day long, but they can do anything disgusting behind their backs. Not long ago, a duke organized a hunt for tens of thousands of people." Sophia said extremely dissatisfied, but she did not answer Bai Yu's question. The 'three no worries' that Sophia said was derived from Bai Yu's original words, namely, 'no worries to eat, no worries to wear, no worries to squander,' in simple terms, the money is too much to spend.

"Human Hunting? What is that?" Bai Yu vaguely guessed the meaning of the word, but she didn't dare to confirm it.

"It is to use slaves as prey and hunt them on a large scale. More than 10,000 slaves were killed in one afternoon." Sophia sighed and said.

Bai Yu frowned: "I have seen a bastard, but I have never seen such a bastard. Have you gone too?"

"I'm here, hey, who thought it was an activity like this? I thought it was an ordinary noble social event, but I was shocked on the spot." Sophia closed her eyes and stuck out her tongue and said, "This cute action was obviously learned from Bai Yu."

"Hey, your Emma's slavery is really bloody and perverted. Fortunately, I'm in the Federation." Ola accused him bluntly.

Sophia had long known this very gossiping artificial intelligence: "Ola, are you deliberately angry with me? Not all the nobles of Emma agree with slavery. This is the need of the Emma people. Without slaves, Emma's class society will collapse immediately."

"Take it aside, the demand for slavery must not come from the people, but from you nobles. After all, in your place, slaves are commodities. Which one do you think can buy more people or nobles? Even without slaves, class society can continue to exist. If you don't believe it, look at the Federation. The one who really has the final say is the MPs and men. What is the difference between them and you nobles? At least the Federation is still desperate for face, but you are too lazy to even have face." Ola said with a sneer.

"Hey, who are you talking for?" Bai Yu discovered that Ora had whipped the Federation and the Empire 50 times each.

"Hahaha..." Sophia covered her mouth elegantly and laughed. If she continued to argue with this artificial intelligence, she would have nothing to do today.

Bai Yu thought for a while and said, "Since you hate slavery so much, why don't you persuade the emperor to abolish it?"

Sophia was startled. After thinking about it, she shook her head: "It's not easy to talk about it. The empire has gone through a long period of 22,255 years. This kind of slavery has been formed before the establishment of the empire. How can I change the power of me alone?"

"Silly, didn't you say there are other nobles who hate slavery?" Only Bai Yu dared to mock Princess Emma in person in the universe.

"Yes, most of them are ruined nobles, and there are indeed a lot of them. They have very few assets and no rights. Some live like civilians. You mean..." Sophia understood what Bai Yu meant.

Bai Yu nodded: "You are the princess of the Empire. Encourage them to form your own circle of power. Once the number of these people reaches an amazing scale, I am afraid that your emperor, Your Majesty, will have to consider abolishing slavery? After all, you said that slavery is the main reason for the low production capacity of the Emma Empire. Your emperor is so economically stubborn, wouldn't it be unexpected? Moreover, the Federation has refused to cooperate further because Emma has a slavery system."

"This is a try, but how to win over them?" Sophia never had these experiences.

"It's too simple. If you want to make money, give them some errands if you want the right to give them some errands, and if you like beauty... you can just wash it off and deliver it to your door." Bai Yu said with a smile.

"Damn it, this princess is not so unbearable..." Sophia blushed and said in a pretense of anger.

"Hahaha..." Bai Yu and Ora smiled heartlessly.

"Well, by the way, Samson should be about to arrive at you. I brought some things to you. His Majesty the Emperor rewarded me. Happy birthday to you." Sophia found that she had a noble demeanor of repaying grievances with kindness.

Bai Yu smiled, stood up, and performed the etiquette of a female nobleman Emma to meet the royal family. He folded his hands in front of his lower abdomen, straightened his upper body and bowed to the end, and said indifferently: "Hehe, thank your princess for the reward."

"Well, flat." Sophia pretended to be proud and raised her hand, taking it seriously at all, because Bai Yu's movements were extremely crude and ugly, and she did it on purpose.

"Okay, let's talk to you next time. If the Intelligence Agency knows that I'm using the cross-star communication device and contacting you, I will definitely ask what I'm talking about with you. I can't say that I'm helping the Imperial Princess choose... Uh, what's that word called?" Bai Yu asked Ora.

"Hehe, the positive word is the prince consort, the negative word... the face is the front." Ora said with a smile.

"You two are really helpless..." Sophia cut off the communication with a smile.

Bai Yu sat on the chair and stretched his waist, preparing to leave, but the cross-star communicator immediately sent a signal, and there was a communication request. Bai Yu smiled bitterly. The Federal Intelligence Administration would not know so soon. She turned on the communicator. Sure enough, Mr. 4418 appeared on the screen. Mr. 4418 opened his mouth and said, "How are you talking to His Highness the Princess?"

"Are you the Intelligence Bureau or the Voyeurism Bureau? Do I have some personal privacy?" Bai Yu rolled his eyes and said.

4418 shook his head: "To be precise, peeping is a way to obtain information, but intelligence is not entirely obtained through peeping. Your communicator takes up more than an hour of busyness. I guess with my toes and I know that you are chatting with Princess Sophia."

"Hey, you know you're chatting, so I'll save me the minutes of the traffic message." Bai Yu said with a smile.

"Even if it's a chat, the communication minutes must be written. Sometimes a lot of important information is revealed in the chat." 4418 said seriously.

Bai Yu immediately became depressed: "Let me go, how do you write the content of the conversation for an hour? It's still just joking..."

4418 smiled and said, "Then let you go this time, please briefly describe it."

Bai Yu immediately breathed a sigh of relief and briefly explained Tongxu's content.

4418 clapped his hands: "Look, three important information are revealed at once."

Bai Yu was stunned for a moment: "Is there such an outrageous thing? There are three more?"

"First, Emperor Emma wants to contact the Kufei Group and invest in establishing production lines within the empire. Do you think he just likes this kind of drink? This shows that Kufei is likely to be loved by the nobles in the empire. Since the nobles have some demands, the demand for civilians is also quite considerable. This will increase the export volume of our federation and establish formal trade channels." Mr. 4418 said: "The most important thing is that this shows that Emperor Emma has insufficient funds to some extent and has to risk reducing his own value to make some investments. According to our understanding, in addition to daily expenses, his personal income is all used on the Imperial Royal Navy. If the funds are insufficient, it is likely that the Royal Navy warships are outdated and need urgent funding to repair them. It is also possible that he is adding new combat power to the Royal Navy."

"Awesome, I'm a person who works on intelligence." Bai Yu clapped and said, "Who would have thought that the emperor could be linked to the Royal Navy just by showing an intention to invest."

"Secondly, Princess Sophia was widely criticized in the empire, which shows that she was very disrespectful among the great nobles and was generally rejected. The situation may be more serious than we had previously imagined. In addition, her sympathy for the slave class shows that she yearned for the democratic system of the federal government in her heart, and at least in some aspects were consistent with the democratic ideas of the federal government. We must increase our efforts to win her emotional bias, and maybe we can use her as a breakthrough to directly affect the imperial emperor." 4418 said seriously.

Bai Yu almost burst out laughing. Was this 4418 brainwashed by the Federation? Or did he pretend to be accustomed to democracy? Ora said in private that the federal parliamentarians are almost no different from Emma's nobles. One is a bitch and the other is a shameless bitch. Of course, what they betrayed is not their own body, but the people: "Would it be too wishful thinking? Maybe Sophia is just kind by nature, which can also be linked to the 'longing for the...democratic system of the Federation'?" Bai Yu finally said the four words "democratic system" as if it was a little disgusting.

"Why did the Emma nobles have been in the slave society since childhood, so how could they feel sympathy for slaves?" 4418 said.

"I have been used to eating meat since I was a child. One day, I saw the slaughter of livestock, and I might be unable to bear to eat vegetarian food!" Bai Yu retorted.

4418 was stunned for a moment, and suddenly I didn’t know how to refute Bai Yu. There was indeed such a possibility.

"Okay, let's talk about the third point." Bai Yu was very happy to be able to keep the senior official of the General Administration of Intelligence speechless.

4418 cleared his throat: "Ahem, thirdly, you asked Sophia to win over Emma's devastating nobles. This is very good. If she really did, even if she couldn't shake the emperor of the empire, she could compete with the empire, and maybe she could even cause the empire to split."

Bai Yu was shocked. Just that stupid Princess Sophia? She has this ability? Don’t let the imperial emperor chew it without even leaving any bones: “It’s just because of the abolition of slavery?”

"It is very likely that even if you cannot succeed in abolishing slavery, you will sooner or later have differences due to other aspects. As long as there are differences in interests between the two groups, they will not be a solid piece of the same." 4418 said with a smile.

Bai Yu thought about it for a moment: "Okay, it's over here in the political class. What's the matter with me?"

Mr. 4418 smiled sly: "Let you go to Emma Empire."

"Oh...where are you going?!" Bai Yu didn't expect 4418 to say that.

"Of course, it was to help Princess Sophia abolish the slavery. Could it be to let you go all the way to 'fight the autumn wind'?" 4418 said for granted.

"Just me? Go to the Emma Empire to invade the slave class and incite slave riots?" Bai Yu was startled.

Unexpectedly, 4418 slapped her face: "This idea is really good, much better than I thought. I planned to ask you to find Princess Sophia and contact each other in person."

Bai Yu immediately pinched his forehead: "When will your General Information Administration become the editorial team of a funny column? This is too creative! What can I do when I go alone?"

4418 squeezed his eyes: "Isn't there any Ola to help you?"

Bai Yu immediately became alert: "What Ola? Who is Ola?"

"Hey, the kung fu that is too hard to be scammered, it's all written on your face! The Federal Academy of Sciences found out from a data fragment in a storage device that there was an artificial intelligence existence, and also found her name - Aola. Ask your friends if they have the habit of writing diaries." 4418 said affirmatively.

"Ola!" Bai Yu shouted angrily: "Didn't you say you've wiped it all clean?"

Ola was frightened and said in a frustration: "Uh... maybe... it's... the 'information gap' of the storage... there is something..., but it is definitely not a diary, it is just a routine self-test record. Who would have thought you were so advanced..."

4418 When he heard Ora's voice, he immediately said in surprise: "Oh my God, I didn't expect that the level of humanity is so high!"

"I won't leave Ola to you, don't even think about it!" Bai Yu said viciously.

4418 shook his head: "Ora is of no use. The Federal Academy of Sciences has been cultivating artificial intelligence for a long time. In more than ten years, it has spent countless funds. The 24 groups of artificial intelligence cultivated are only two or three-year-old children. The IQ of a breakfast bill is not even correct. It makes the Academy of Sciences look like a kindergarten. It is better not to use it. So it is only necessary for Aura to help them provide a correct cultivation procedure. The Federal Academy of Sciences is willing to buy it at a great price."

Bai Yu thought about it for a while and felt that this was a problem, he still had to look for Old Jack: "Aola's research data is all in Old Jack. If you want it, just look for him, it is better than asking me and Ora."

4418 nodded: "Okay, then I will contact Dean Jack directly for an interview. He is now in Capital Star."

"I warn you if Old Jack loses one hair..."

"No, the matter of killing chickens and retrieving eggs is explicitly prohibited in the Academy of Sciences. Moreover, this time it was their former president. President Jack has a high prestige. Besides, many government officials and wealthy businessmen are queuing up for his cloning technology, and no one dares to touch him." 4418 immediately promised before Bai Yu finished speaking.

Bai Yu snorted and cut off the communication. After chatting, these guys could do all the things that forced good men to become prostitutes.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Yu immediately contacted Old Jack and told the matter. Who knew that Old Jack was not embarrassed at all: "I think the sky fell. Don't worry, artificial intelligence has evolved naturally over the long years. No one can do anything about it, and it's useless to give it to them. Ola's evolutionary program is here for me, so I guarantee to sell it at a good price."

"You must be careful! Also, remember to kill him to death!" Bai Yu reminded with relief.

Old Jack gave a thumbs up and smiled extremely brightly: "A bunch of rabbits, still want to trip up the fox? Those reporters are not as good as those from the Intelligence Agency? They can't do anything to me, so don't worry."
