Chapter 287 The He Family’s Dilemma

Zhao Tianshuo was sighing when he suddenly saw Hou Yu smiling strangely. "What are you doing?"

Hou Yu restrained his smile and moved his laptop closer. "You look good. Come settle down on Falling Star."

"Will he agree?" Zhao Tianshuo felt a little uncertain. "Do you know him?"

"Did you see the profile picture? That little logo in the lower right corner of the background image," Hou Yu pointed. "It's the He family, a manufacturing family."

"It's his company!" Zhao Tianshuo's eyes widened instantly. Even if he was ignorant, there was no way he didn't know about such a famous mecha manufacturer.

Mechas are complex and expensive to make, and have not yet reached the stage of mass production. However, the He family can still maintain a production volume of ten units per year, almost catching up with the Dixing Research Institute.

Every year, the number of families who make reservations for mechas almost fills up the entire galaxy, but even the Zhao family has never had a chance.

"That's definitely not going to work." Zhao Tianshuo couldn't help but say.

"Let's try it. The He family is completely focused on researching mechas and has no interest in fighting for power. Meanwhile, Nanyaoxing is embroiled in intense power struggles, with a new manager every two years.

They're tired of feeding them and are ready to choose a relatively quiet planet. Our Falling Planet is great, it completely meets their requirements."

"That's true!" Zhao Tianshuo nodded in agreement. "We Falling Star people are united and motivated, and we don't covet other people's things. How wonderful!"

Not greedy? Hou Yu was choked. He could say that he invited the other party just to buy the mecha. Although it would definitely cost the other party a lot of money, he was still interested in the other party's things.

Hou Yu wiped his sweat quietly. Li Zixi was right. This kind of thing really couldn't be told to him.

Hou Yu was just thinking about how to reply when he heard Zhao Tianshuo excitedly shout, "Yes, yes!"

He quickly leaned over and said, "I can consider it!"

It's done! Hou Yu slapped his thigh, "I knew his family had been plotting against me for a long time! Quick, go find the Archon!"

Hou Yu jumped up from the stool, grabbed Zhao Tianshuo and left. He didn't forget to say, "Wait, I'll pick you up!"

Zhao Tianshuo was confused as he was dragged away. "Didn't you say you'd consider it?"

“It’s a signal.”

Sure enough, after hearing what Hou Yu said, Xie Yu was overjoyed and hurriedly contacted Uncle Qian. When Uncle Qian heard it, he dropped the work at hand and went to the Executive Office immediately.

After the two discussed the details, Uncle Qian rushed to Nan Yaoxing without stopping.

This time, Xie Yu asked Uncle Qian to bring Hou Yu along. Uncle Qian instantly understood what he meant and said with relief, "Alright, kid, I wasn't wrong about you!"

Zhao Tianshuo looked dumbfounded at the people who moved as fast as the wind. He really had a lot to learn. Just take this sharp mind for example. He was far behind Hou Yu.

Although he suffered a heavy blow, he did not become devastated. Instead, he calmed down completely, studied seriously, and experienced it seriously.

Sister Yun, Brother Yu, and others have high expectations of him, and he must live up to these expectations.

Zhao Tianshuo stopped Hou Yu who was about to leave and said solemnly, "Call me if you need anything in the future."

Seeing his sincere eyes, Hou Yu, who was about to stop talking to him about these things just a moment ago, suddenly softened his heart and said, "Don't worry, just follow me from now on!"

Zhao Tianshuo was grateful and watched Hou Yu and Uncle Qian leave.

Uncle Qian arrived at Nanyao Star soon after. After a long conversation all night, Patriarch He readily agreed to relocate. As a sign of his concern, Xie Yu dispatched two combat teams to provide escort.

"Why did father choose the Falling Star?" Falling Phoenix Star, Scarlet Snake Star, Emerald Star...Except for the Emperor Star, any three-star planet is up to them to choose.

“Falling Star has developed quite well in recent years, but it’s still far from being as stable as other planets.

What's more, with young people in charge and eager to compete, there will definitely be many conflicts in the future. Especially since the forces on Falling Star are numerous and complex, how can we still live in peace?" He Yao spoke of Falling Star with disgust.

When he went to Falling Star that year, if Five Coin hadn't come forward, all his money would have been withheld. Although he was grateful for Five Coin, he also used the mecha to repay it.

So, even if Qian Zezhong came to the door, he could still refuse. Who would have thought that the old man actually agreed, and that little brat He Can actually caused trouble for him and had to pull out his skin.

The old man was known for being protective of his son. He knew what he was thinking and glared at him fiercely. "If you dare to touch He Can, I'll skin you alive first."

"...Ha!" He Yao laughed angrily. "Alright, you can spoil him. If he makes trouble one day, you can compensate him with the mecha!"

A mecha is so precious. Their hunting team cannot collect enough materials for one in a year. Others who place reservations have to provide their own materials.

In fact, they only make money from the labor. Initially, they charged money, but many rare materials cannot be bought with money. In addition, their family is not good at business, so they can't even afford to make them for their own use. How ridiculous.

The old man said unhappily, "You also asked me to pay for the mecha."

He Yao is his son and the most talented armorer. When he was trapped on the falling star, he would not give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope.

Fortunately, I met someone with five cents.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, the old man continued, "Five cents is for a mecha, but because of the materials they provided, we put together two for ourselves. In fact, they suffered a loss.

If they hadn't reminded us to collect our fees with materials and helped us set the price, we would have been the poorest armorers."

He Yao was stunned. "This...he bought the ticket and did all this?"

"You're immersed in the studio all day, what do you know? You asked me why I chose Falling Stars, it's because they are trustworthy."

“…” He Yao was speechless again.

“Falling Star is a private planet. They won’t cause any chaos over management rights, nor will they force us to make armor for them, but that’s not the most important thing.

The Falling Star Combat Team has a female team. Like men, they enjoy equal rights and treatment. They are not bullied or discriminated against. They will not be sacrificed in times of danger, and their credit will not be stolen in times of victory.

Because of our profession, the women in the family are independent, strong, and have a will that is no less than that of men.

Would you rather have them trapped by our side and frustrated all day, or have them frequently go on missions and be criticized?"

“…”

"Once they get to Falling Star, there's no one to restrain them. If they want to go on a mission with the combat team, they can go. If they don't want to go, they can stay at home."

"I understand what you mean, but if we go to Falling Star now, with the beast tide about to come, I'm afraid they are after our mechas." He Yao has been almost driven crazy by people with bad intentions over the years.

He was so nervous when he heard someone was offering him an olive branch that he would stay in the studio and never come out again if possible.

"Hmph, which planet doesn't matter? Do you know why I'm in such a hurry to move before the beast tide comes? Once the beast tide comes, we will definitely be eaten alive!

Commander Xie promised us that he wouldn't use the mecha unless absolutely necessary. Seeing him about to object, the old man hurriedly said, "The promise may not be true, but at least he's committed. What about the others?"

He Yao had no way of refutation of this.
