Chapter 750: General Manager’s Opinion!

If you want to be rich, build roads first. Even though times have changed, this sentence still applies everywhere.

Similarly, with this simple idea in mind, as long as there is an area explored by imperial ships, the first thing to do is to find a place to place a star gate and light up the flight point first.

In the human empire, this kind of work of opening up new land outside is basically done by wandering merchants, and then the Mechanicus or even the Ministry of Government will send people to explore.

Although the group of Rogue Merchants contains the word "Merchants" in their name, they are not just thieves looking for death. Instead, they are an armed group that has been officially recognized and recorded by the Empire.

A small family might only have two or three merchant ships, but a large family might cover several star systems. They hold trading documents with a drop of blood of the Emperor or even the Primarch, use original combat ships of the Imperial Navy, and even hire Space Marines as guards.

In short, these wandering merchants are not pushovers. They are the spokespersons of various legions. Every family that has survived to this day has its own unique characteristics, and their fighting spirit and patience are amazing.

During the Great Crusade, Rogue Traders were not well-known because the Legions were overly efficient in conquering worlds. But things are very different now. With the example of Guilliman's 500 Worlds of Ultramar, every Legion has now begun the great cause of farming.

According to the differences in legion customs, the styles of these wandering traders are also very different, but no matter how they are distinguished, these wandering traders are very fond of the Lord of Black Light, and are more or less believers of Black Light.

After all, when you go out, you will inevitably deal with the evil spirits in the subspace, and this is when Hogg's value is reflected.

First of all, the Black Light Sect is one of the state religions, and there is nothing wrong with believing in it. Even if you are encountered by that group of Grey Knights, they cannot say that you are a heretic.

Secondly, believing in the Lord of Black Light is really useful!
During the Warp voyage, although it is not as immune to all poisons as Blackwatch, it can at least resist the corruption of Chaos. To be even more disrespectful, this psionic power is indeed better than that of the Emperor.

If the caravan is wealthy, they can spend a lot of money to purchase psionic crystals and put them in the hands of psychics before leaving. As long as the Geiger force field is turned on, the ship will be a piece of shit in the eyes of the Chaos Demons, and they will not touch it easily unless they are really hungry.

But if you are unlucky and a group of demons happen to want to change their taste, don't panic. Before engaging in a violent battle, you can let the Black Light believers go out to negotiate.

This is a question of probability. If this group of demons are from Khorne and Slaanesh, then we can basically talk about it. If they are from Nurgle and Tzeentch, then the 50% chance is also negotiable.

The direction of our discussion is nothing more than that you good men should let me off first, and I will find a way to make up the difference for you after the matter is accomplished.

A rogue trader would never dare to engage in a cult, but who says the Four Peddlers are two-faced gods? From another perspective, Tzeentch can also be called the god of wisdom, Nurgle can also be called the god of life, and even Slaanesh can be called the goddess of love and art.

As for Khorne, they don't even act it out now. The Imperials are superstitious, but they are not blind. As long as you stand on the front line, you can see the bloody red light emanating from every Space Marine, and the harder they fight, the brighter the red light.

So much so that there is a saying among the Rogue Traders: "The eldest brother sits on the Golden Throne, the second brother sits on the Brass Throne, the Emperor is strong and brave, Khorne is brave and strong."

Isn't it just the power of emotions? If you want it, I'll give it to you. Each ship can accommodate tens of thousands of people. Isn't it easy to hold a ship wedding for you on the spot?
Is the reproduction of life considered Nurgle's domain? Since the Silver Party cannot be held, I will hold a blind date meeting and find a vacant land for me to grow vegetables. This will not only meet Slaanesh's KPI, but also please my father.

The only trouble is the Tzeentch demon. After all, the brain is something that cannot be quantified. But this is not a problem for the general public. We immediately recruit a group of scientific research talents and ask them to find a way to hold an academic discussion every day to help me figure out what the mystery of the universe is.

This kind of coping strategy is only in the initial stage. As time goes by, there are more and more tricks. In addition, the traveling merchants who can organize caravans are not poor. They can be fooled by offering a sum of psionic crystals.

Of course, this method of dealing with it only applies to those demons with names, in simple terms, those brains. But if you are really unlucky and run into a group of fools, or a warp creature that is not under the jurisdiction of the evil god, such as a group of migrating void whales, it is useless to call the primarch to crash into them. They will be killed if they are hit. The only way is to pray that the martial virtue of your own ship is sufficient and that the ship runs fast enough.

Even so, the danger of exploring unknown areas has always been high. Subspace navigation is not safe. Life and death are truly determined by fate, and wealth is determined by God. It is completely a metaphysics.

Therefore, in order to avoid the embarrassment of coming here in good condition but being unable to go back, every merchant family would try to build a star gate as soon as possible to connect to the star gate route belonging to the empire.

In this vibrant state, where everything seems to be flourishing, after ten thousand years of development, the coverage rate of star gates has become increasingly higher. As long as there are activities of the imperial people, there will generally be star gates.

As for the Kara network, even more so, any demon with a little bit of brains has begun to enter the tertiary industry and conduct online fraud through Kara. Hogg himself doesn't know how widespread the Niraka base stations are.

In the lunar base, all the Primarchs were used to seeing Hogg boasting about his great achievements. Only the new members Sera and the Silent King believed it to be true, with an innocent look in their eyes as if they had never been cheated.

"So, the plan that Huangpizi and I have been planning for ten thousand years has finally come to the point of closing the net. You may not know that the Kara Network is a lower-level substitute for our Blackwatch Psychic Network, and the Stargate can form a matrix to amplify my power.

Do you know what this means? "

"It means you can post pornographic pictures online at will." Magnus' voice sounded from behind, and as soon as it appeared, Hogg's face instantly turned gloomy.

But Magnus was not afraid at all, because he was the only one working on the scene. In order to adjust the magic circle, he had been busy for more than half a month. His resentment was overwhelming and he was eager to find someone to fight.

Hogg was angry for a moment, but only for a moment. He couldn't understand psychic power and could only rely on Xiao Ma Ge, but others did not have this privilege.

Looking around, Hogg spotted Russ pretending to be dead in the corner, and immediately grabbed his belt and pulled him over:

"I'm asking you a question. Do you know what this means?"

"Ah! Me? I don't know how to do that. I can only chop people!"

He kicked the unsupportive killer to the ground. Seeing that everyone was just slacking off, Hogg jumped and landed on the shoulders of Vulgan, who was the tallest, and yelled:
"Stop messing around, everyone look at me, I have something to announce!

I want this sky to no longer cover my eyes; I want this earth to no longer bury my heart. I, Hogg, will single-handedly break the teeth of the entire world!"

Looking at Hogg who was yelling above Vulkan's head, the angel and Horus looked at each other and whispered:

"Strange talk, meaningless!"

"Sanguinius, what are you talking about?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the archangel tilted his head and smiled: "I think the general manager has a good opinion!"
