Warhammer 40K in a box

Chapter 113 Business Negotiation
Chen Xi's intercontinental factory is still under construction, but Gria's intercontinental factory has been in operation for countless years. Its huge forging factory can even be clearly seen when approaching the planet.

The rumor in the 3K era that the Great Wall of Seris could be seen from space was a rumor, but it was not a rumor that you could see the huge factories on the surface of the planet here.

The Forge World of Griya is where the stories of the games "Starfighter 1" and "Boltgun" take place. Titus tore the Demon Prince apart here, and Kaido exiled the Great Unclean One here.

Although this planet has always been plagued by disasters, thanks to the planet's main forging factory network "Crown of Graeae" with a warp engine that can carry itself away, the Griya Forge World has suffered heavy losses but has not fallen or fallen into decline.

Although it is a bit painful for the oilmen of Gria to rebuild the planet every few hundred years, it is better than having the entire planet destroyed and the entire forging world destroyed.

However, because this planet was invaded by Chaos and Greenskins at the same time a hundred years ago, the Inquisitor who was in charge of investigating the incident not only captured Titus, but also banned the planet.

The planet was not reopened until the Inquisitor was executed for his corruption.

Fortunately, the planet's main forging plant was not affected, otherwise the Griya Forge World would have been in great trouble.

But precisely because of this, the sages on this planet are still very interested in the arrival of Maimai and Dusk, and the orders they bring.

"Sir Merlin, the Griya Forge World is willing to take on the order you mentioned. However, for an important planet like Rostov, which will become the capital of a sub-sector in the future, isn't one orbital ring enough?" The sage sent by the Griya Mechanicum to negotiate said in a tempting tone, "Our Griya Forge World has a very long history and profound technological background! We can meet all your needs!
Lord Mailin, since your dynasty has obtained the development rights of the entire sub-star region, why don’t you consider cooperating with us to carry out in-depth development of this sub-star region?

We can provide you with various facilities and production licenses, including shipyards, and even building hive cities and transforming planets!

Even if there are any war needs, we can ask the Star Traveler Titan Legion for help."

Because the Forge World has been sealed for a hundred years, Griya is currently in need of a large number of orders to restart the forges on the planet that have been cooling for a hundred years.

Although the main forge is a flying space station, there are still a large number of intercontinental factories on the surface of the planet Griya.

All the forges in these factories have been extinguished in the past hundred years, which is a huge blow to the Griya Forge World. They are now seeking ways to rekindle the fires and restore the planet to its former prosperity.

Faced with the needs generated by the development and construction of an entire sub-star region, even the arrogant Mechanicus sages would condescend to actively discuss cooperation with Merlin, and their attitude was very warm and friendly.

However, Mai Mai just shook his head and sighed, "If possible, I certainly hope to reach a cooperation with the Gria Forge World! But the Rostov sub-sector is located in the Mariupol star sector, and the star sector's forge worlds are also eyeing this huge piece of cake!
I am just a traveling merchant, and the dynasty I own is as small as it can be. I really can't afford to offend any of your forging worlds.

How about you two families discuss how to divide the cake?
I don't care anyway. After all, who doesn't buy products from the Mechanicus? "Maimai's words immediately passed the buck to the sages of Gria, letting them figure out how to deal with the matter.

"But you still came to Glia to order the orbital rings." The sage of Glia simply pointed this out.

"Yes, I don't hide this fact. After all, the foundry director of the Mariupol Forge World also admitted that they don't have the ability to build an orbital star ring." Mai Mai confessed this to the sage of Gria with an indifferent look.

In fact, it’s not that the foundry director of Mariupol is incompetent, but it is obviously impossible for the sage of Gria to go to the foundry director of Mariupol to confirm this, so it doesn’t matter what Mai Mai says.

After all, it is an indisputable fact that Mariupol Forge World did not take on this business.

In response to Mai Mai's argument, the sage of Gria laughed and said, "In that case, the Rostov sub-sector can build more than one orbital ring, right?"

"Of course we can build more than one star ring." Mai Mai was of course also interested in building a star ring, but he spread his hands helplessly: "It's a pity that the state religion only agreed to pay for the Rostov II star ring for us. If we want to build more star rings, I will have to pay for it myself!
Although Judge Chen Xi has given me great authority, I dare not make the final decision on such a big project alone.

However, Inquisitor Chen Xi is a sensible man. He rescued Captain Titus, the commander of the Second Company of the Ultramarines who saved the Forge World of Gria a hundred years ago, from the hands of the Inquisitor who took him away. He is now on the Rostov II.

If I can convince him with the right conditions, I think he wouldn't mind building a few more star rings or other structures in the Rostov sub-sector."

After Mai Mai finished speaking, the sage of Gria's eyes became slightly amused, and then he asked a seemingly irrelevant question: "This Inquisitor Chen Xi seems to be more powerful than the Inquisitor back then?"

"It's hard to compare. An Inquisitor's power is the result of a variety of factors." Mai Mai didn't directly answer the sage's question, but explained in an obscure way: "However, Inquisitor Chen Xi is a Lord Inquisitor, and his appointment as Planetary Governor comes directly from the Forbidden Palace of Holy Terra."

Hearing this, the sage of Gria couldn't help but look at him, nodded solemnly, and then said: "Earlier, Mr. Mai Lin, you proposed to use the local planetary mining rights in exchange for cooperation. This matter can be discussed.

How many planets can you offer? If we want to develop an entire sub-sector, Gria will need a sufficient return."

"Before we discuss this, I have a question." Mai Mai suddenly looked a little embarrassed, but then asked the sage, "By the way, can you build a star ring around a star?"

"Build a star ring around a star?" Even though the wise men of Griya were knowledgeable, they had never heard of such an outrageous request.
