Luo Tian toasted everyone and became familiar with Hall, Feiyu and Ivan. During the meal, he also talked about many interesting things about the Tianwang District, hoping to create a good impression for the Tianwang District and further dispel their idea of attacking the Tianwang District.
After three rounds of drinks, Peter saw that the time was almost right, so he asked, "Now that Luo Tian is my son-in-law, I propose that Uranus City join the Survival Alliance. What do you think?"
Hall took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "The Survival Alliance is an organization that maintains the survival and development of its members. Every member must play an important role in the alliance and create value for other members. I have no objection to your proposal that the Tianwang District join the Survival Alliance, but I would like to know what the Tianwang District can provide us."
Luo Tian took over the conversation and said, "Our Tianwang District is rich in liquid drills and ice, and has abundant labor resources, but the technology is too backward. As long as we join the Survival Alliance and introduce advanced technology, I am confident that I can expand production capacity. By then, I can give a 20% discount on the price of liquid drills and ice in the Mercury and Venus districts."
Hall shook his head: "20% off, that's not very sincere, right? It should be at least 40% off!"
Luo Tianyi gritted his teeth and said, "40% off is fine. In addition, I am also planning to set up a free trade zone in Tianwang District. Merchants and financiers from the Survival Alliance are welcome to come to Tianwang District to do business and enjoy the most preferential treatment. We can all make money together. How do you think?"
Hall's eyes lit up when he heard Luo Tian's words. You know, the Tianwang District is a populous area with abundant labor force, and the excess capital in the Venus District has nowhere to invest. Now that Luo Tian promised to open trade, he would be able to make a lot of money by letting the capital of the Venus District flow into the Tianwang District.
"Okay, Brother Luo Tian, I have heard your sincerity this time. Welcome to join the Survival Alliance." Hall raised his glass and clinked it with Luo Tian, and they both drank it in one gulp.
Seeing that he had dealt with Hall, Peter asked Feiyu, "Feiyu, Old Huo has agreed. What do you think of the Mercury District?"
Fei Yu smiled and said, "I don't value money as much as Lao Huo. You know, the purpose of our establishment of the Survival Alliance is not to make more money, but to solve the Kaiyuan crisis, which requires the expansion of new space. Now that the Tianwang District has joined the Survival Alliance, I would like to ask you, how to solve the problem of space expansion?"
These words hit the nail on the head. Luo Tian was somewhat impressed by Qi Feiyu's vision.
Peter put down his glass and said, "I have also thought of Feiyu's concerns, and I already have a solution."
Feiyu looked at Peter and asked, "What's the plan?"
"If Uranus City joins the Survival Alliance, then the expansion of space can only start from Saturn City and Jupiter City. Everyone knows that Jupiter City has always remained neutral and has always reaped the benefits. It is better for us to unite and attack Saturn City. Moreover, now that the Uranus District has joined us, the Survival Alliance also has support at the aphelion. If we can completely devour the fat and strong Saturn City, I guarantee that there will be no more Kaiyuan crisis within three hundred years." Peter expressed his idea.
Ivan, who had been sitting next to him and had been silent, spoke up at this time: "I think the Kaiyuan Crisis is best resolved peacefully, without resorting to force. After all, if a war really breaks out, it will always be the civilians who suffer."
Peter got angry after hearing this: "Ivan, every Star City pays a large amount of Kaiyuan R&D and maintenance fees to your Joint Development Association every year. Please tell me where you spend all the money? Logically speaking, the insufficient data capacity of Kaiyuan should be the responsibility of your Joint Development Association. Now you are unable to solve it, and you are still here to persuade us to resolve the crisis peacefully. To tell you the truth, if it can be resolved peacefully, we don't need to establish a survival alliance. If you still want to collect our dues honestly every year, then shut up and stand by me without hesitation, understand?"
These harsh words made Ivan feel very embarrassed, but he had neither financial nor military power, so he could only express his resistance silently.
Feiyu finally spoke: "Peter, you really dare to think! Taking over Saturn City and taking over Uranus City are completely different levels. Indeed, if Saturn City is taken over by us, given its size, we will not encounter the Kaiyuan Crisis for a long time, but the cost to pay for this is also huge! I am worried that when the Survival Alliance is attacking Saturn City with all its strength, Jupiter City will take advantage of the opportunity to attack, and it will be difficult for us to resist!"
Luo Tian immediately understood Fei Yu's meaning. She was confident that she could capture Saturn City, but she did not want to pay too much for it, or even let Jupiter City take over the initiative.
Peter didn't expect Feiyu to not give him face, and he got angry: "Women are always short of knowledge. I want to hear if you have any good ideas to solve our Kaiyuan crisis."
Fei Yu smiled and said, "I have a way to have the best of both worlds. Uranus City can join the Survival Alliance, but a portion of the server space needs to be allocated to Mars City, Venus City, and Mercury City. In this way, Uranus City will become a member of the Survival Alliance, and we won't have to fight. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"
Ivan clapped his hands and cheered: "I think Feiyu's idea is good. This way, Jupiter City and Saturn City will not have any objections."
Of course Luo Tian would not agree, because once he did so, it would mean that the future development of Uranus City would be locked. Without server space, there would be no way to store data, computing power would be limited, and developing technology would become a luxury.
"As long as my interests are guaranteed, I don't care which plan you two come up with, Peter or Feiyu," said Hall.
Peter certainly understood the stakes involved and couldn't make the decision for them, so he asked Luo Tian and Yelena, "What do you think?"
