Chapter 2526: Wanxing Internet (1/2)
When the richest core world of the true human empire was immersed in the unnecessary consumption of court battles and the usurpation of the powers, the seemingly insignificant, gentle and harmless Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance also quietly emerged in the poor mountains and waters of the outer world of the empire.
The pattern of the Pangu universe at this moment is completely different from the previous 100,000 years.
In the first 100,000 years from the birth to growth of human civilization, every large world basically satisfies the conditions of self-sufficiency and independent operation. On any habitable planet, there are sufficient water, air, mineral resources and a stable ecological cycle. The system, even if it does not trade with the outside world, can maintain a minimum internal circulation.
However, from the end of the ancient world, the ancient war of war that swept the three thousand worlds, to the rise and decline of the monster race, and the ”doomsday war” between the emperor and the blood **** son, for thousands of years, the war in the Pangu universe has never been true. Extinguished.
The war has destroyed the self-circulation system of many large worlds, the atmosphere has disappeared, the mineral deposits have been hollowed out, the groundwater has been polluted, and various gentle and domesticated spirit beasts have mutated into vicious beasts.
Not to mention, with the advancement of technology, humans can conquer resource planets and colonize planets that were previously unconquerable, and build large-scale settlements that can accommodate millions of people or more in places that are absolutely unsuitable for human survival.
As a result, in the resource-poor star regions outside the empire, most of the habitable planets have lost the ability to be completely self-sufficient, or have no such ability from the beginning. They must rely on the endless star-sea trade to bring what is necessary for survival. All resources are needed to survive.
As a result, the importance of Xinghai Trade has been elevated to a level that cannot be added. Many experts even pointed out that the future is not only the era of Lingwang, but also the era of logistics networks, the era of ”Wanxing Internet”, who will control After the trade between habitable planets, whoever has firm control of the entire universe!
In the traditional elite area of the empire, the trade channel was firmly controlled by the four major families and traditional officials and merchants.
However, in the outer world where resources are poor, far away, and too much oil and water cannot be squeezed out, it takes time, energy and patience to build a complete logistics system from scratch and cultivate the local market to a profitable level. The water mill time.
The four big families, who have long been accustomed to relying on monopoly and taxation to obtain excess profits, are too lazy to spend hundreds of years dealing with the hillbillies and local buns in the outer world. Various native small trading groups and logistics sects have grown savagely and fought for themselves. The posture came into being, and after hundreds of years of silent rooting and sprout, a seemingly inconspicuous but impervious trade, logistics and even financial network was woven in the outer world of the empire. After that, these stragglers gathered together. , In the name of ”Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance”, surfaced.
As the saying goes that the emperor is far away, the outer world of the empire is a lawless and chaotic star field. The so-called star thief, merchant, private fleet and regular army are all the same thing. The Union of Ten Thousand Realms can kill one in such a **** jungle. The **** road naturally has the boldest sailors and captains, the most treacherous and cunning black-hearted merchants, and the most cruel star thief talents.
They have monopolized countless capillary-like trade routes, which can bring a continuous source of resources and talents to a planet, so that the planet can thrive in a short period of time; it can also be transformed into a star thief and completely blocked. All the channels of a planet to the outside world make this planet obediently succumb to their lust.
Among other things, as long as the warships under the Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance blast all the spirit gathering towers and remote communication base stations around a planet, and make the planet and the outside world completely ”disconnected”, it can lead to the level of civilization on the planet. , Within a year and a half, it has degraded for decades.
With such strength, the Ten Thousand Realms Merchant League is naturally unwilling to just wander around the periphery of the empire and become a supplier to the hillbillies and local buns.
What's more, the leaders of the Ten Thousand Realms Business League also knew very well that in the eyes of the nobles at the top of the empire, these merchants were just pigs and dogs to be slaughtered. The more fat they were, the more it was time for them to be slaughtered.
In the past, the four big families hadn't seen the profits of the world trade in the periphery of the empire, so they didn't bother to pay attention to them, but now they have worked so hard to cultivate this market. Seeing that it is profitable, if the four big families don't come to pick peaches, it will be fine. What is the cultivator?
The first strike is strong, and then the strike suffers. The newly born Ten Thousand Realms Business League realized with the instinct for survival that if you want to survive, you can only fight with the powerful, chaebols and wealthy of Xinghai Central. Those who rely on traditional methods are simple and rude. The ”old cultivators” who squeeze ordinary people and have no technical content, fight endlessly!
Free Star Coin is the sharpest weapon they have chosen.
They want to start a war, a currency war that does not use crystal armor, starships and giant soldiers to fight directly, but uses money to fight, killing people without seeing blood!
