Chapter 556: Debt Collection
The aircraft carrier returned to Wolfe in a low-key manner.
Luo Mu repeatedly confirmed the situation of Yun Mo and Akbar, and after confirming that the plan was feasible, he decided to cooperate with Yun Mo's request.
"Yunmo, mobilizing a large force to collect the debt is completely different from our original plan. What are you going to do?"
Luo Mu picked up the kettle in front of him and slowly made another cup of coffee. His movements were leisurely and casual, as if he was not drinking an instant drink, but a feeling.
Yun Mo narrowed her eyes, took a cup consciously, and said, "Changing strategy rashly may seem risky, but as we've made clear just now, this adjustment will reduce the risk by more than an order of magnitude."
Luo Mu nodded. If it wasn’t for this reason, how could he agree?
It's not that we haven't considered similar plans, but Gugan Star is very exclusive, and sneaking in quietly is a challenge in itself. If the Kosa family can lead the way, it will be a different story.
But what debt should I collect?
Luo Mu was screening possible options in his mind.
Private merchants definitely can't do that, and the news of the mission must not be leaked to any outsiders. The most reliable one is the Lian family, perhaps Lian Yao can cooperate?
As another important role in this plan, Huo Chuan had been sitting in this conference room for quite a while, slowly digesting their conversation, when he suddenly slammed the table.
Yun Mo tilted her head slightly, and Huo Chuan's distinct black and white eyes came into her sight.
"What's wrong?" Yun Mo asked.
Huo Chuan stood up, rubbed his hands on his pants, and walked back and forth twice, suppressing his slightly excited emotions: "You want to use the name of SC Company to collect debts?"
"Yeah, but the story hasn't been thought out yet," Yun Mo said. The perfect chain still lacks the key introduction.
"I have a solution," Huo Chuan turned back.
"What method?" Yun Mo asked.
"Do you know a saying?"
"Don't keep me in suspense," Luo Mu's gaze also fell on Huo Chuan.
Huo Chuan leaned forward, stretched out his arm, and enlarged the star map.
A shadow fell over Yunmo's face, her face brimming with confidence and vitality. Unknowingly, the boy had grown into a young man. In a few years, he would be a pillar of society.
Huo Chuan drew a line diagonally in the upper right corner with his finger, and said in a cheerful voice: "My dad said there's a saying in the community that investment is no more than N40E119."
"What's the meaning?"
Although Yun Mo and Luo Mu were smart, they had never been in the business world, so they were a little stunned when they heard this.
Huo Chuan shook his head. The reason why he remembered it so clearly was because the Huo family had suffered a great loss there and the business was almost ruined. Every time his father talked about it, he felt a lingering fear.
"N40E119 is a line that investors made up to mock themselves. The story actually started decades ago. There are several habitable planets on this line, including Wolf, Gugan, Vulcan, and Trabis..."
"Strictly speaking, these star regions have changed hands several times, from Alpha to Sharia and then to the Federation."
"Well", then what?
Huo Chuan said clearly, "These planets have one thing in common: they produce a kind of Enlightenment Stone. We know that the Federation's current energy pool comes from the Changgeng Mine, which uses Changgeng Stone as the raw energy stone for refining and processing."
"Many years ago, there were two sets of technical paths for energy pools. The other set used Qiming Stone, which was said to significantly increase the conversion rate and extend the lifespan."
"Yeah," Luo Mu nodded. He knew this.
"These planets weren't that chaotic back then. Risks and rewards coexisted, and if the project succeeded, the profits would be enormous. Many people from the central planets sensed a business opportunity and flocked there to investigate and negotiate."
Yun Mo opened the light brain and browsed the popularization of the Star Network: "Hiss, a project worth hundreds of billions."
"Yes," Huo Chuan said, "because the investment is huge and the technology is uncertain, so many people watch but few actually invest."
What happened next was a bit more interesting.
One person must be mentioned here - Wright.
He promoted this project on behalf of the Galactic Empire Mining Fund, proposing that for every energy pool produced using Enlightenment Stone, the Imperial Mining Fund would provide a subsidy ranging from one to five million Federation Coins, depending on the quality, to offset the high losses and costs associated with the immature technology. This subsidy would be valid for one hundred years.
This is truly a huge temptation, and it is enough to show the Galactic Empire's desire for high-level energy pools.
Many businessmen flocked in, including the Huo family.
The power of the group of big bosses was enormous. Hundreds of billions of funds were quickly invested, and output came in a few years.
At this time, the Galactic Empire Mining Fund was exposed, saying that the annual fund income was not enough to cover expenses and it had overdrawn funds for decades.
Subsidy arrears were inevitable, and the entire empire was in an uproar when the news came out.
Countless businessmen were trapped, cash flow was cut off, and countless bank trust funds were blinded.
Merchants are secondary, after all, arms cannot defeat thighs.
However, Guganxing Energy Company is different. It is a company owned by the Guganxing government, and even the Galactic Empire Mining Fund has direct shares in it.
Valley Energy also participated in the project. Without subsidies, they were helpless. Initially, they were able to scrape together enough to repay the debt.
Later, Wright said in an internal meeting: "Some things, if you can't pay them back, you don't have to pay them back."
After these words were spoken, Guganxing Energy Company collapsed, announcing the next day that it would not be able to repay its bonds on time. This chain reaction completely destroyed the star region's credit.
Mr. Huo once jumped up and down and scolded them as "shameless hooligans"...
The rest of the story is basically clear.
The result was that all industries related to those star regions were placed on a credit blacklist, commonly known as "investment no more than N40E119." This number not only represents the coordinates of that line, but also the coordinates of the Light home planet!
Huo Chuan stopped, and Yun Mo and Luo Mu understood.
"So, your family really has money that hasn't been recovered?"
"Yes, it's legitimate to collect the debt, right?" Huo Chuan was a little proud.
"Sure thing, young man," Luo Mu patted Huo Chuan on the shoulder.
In his original arrangement, Huo Chuan only needed to be a quiet paper man, but he didn't expect that the paper man he bought with krypton gold would have built-in plug-ins.
The next day, twenty very flashy vehicles drove onto the Kosa family's aircraft carrier without being checked.
Akbar originally walked in the gray area. He was very clear about the relationship between Yun Mo and the Huo family. Even if he had to help transport a group of terrorist forces, he would not hesitate, not to mention that it was just such a convoy.
A few hours later, the huge convoy stopped at Boli, the central city of Gugan Star.
At the entrance of the expensive hotel, Huo Chuan leaned lazily against the car door, waiting for someone to pick him up.
His short-sleeved shirt was covered with large, colorful kudzu flowers, with the collar casually open. He wore black sunglasses with gold rims, and a pair of brown leather shoes under his light-colored shorts. He looked both dashing and suave.
Lin Fancheng followed him, pushing the suitcase, with a serious expression.
The doors of the motorcade were opened at the same time, and strong long legs stepped out in unison, causing a burst of gasps.
About fifty bodyguards, each pushing a square suitcase of the same model, about one meter long, followed closely behind Huo Chuan.
They were all wearing camouflage tights, black trousers tucked into high-top leather boots, and the same style of sunglasses, which made them look very stylish.
Luo Mu saw it from the surveillance camera and couldn't help but hold his forehead.
This is the highest level of pretentiousness. I don’t know where these people learned it from, this is really high-level.
