Chapter 484: Joining the Pan-Galactic Alliance

Both of them had different thoughts, and they immediately got together.

"Are you interested in joining the Pan-Galactic Alliance?" Peters leaned over and said.

At this time, Ye Nan finally focused his attention on Peters's face. Peters was no different from ordinary Earthlings, with a high nose bridge, golden hair, and a slightly plump body. At a glance, he knew it was the look of an official.

"Of course I'm interested." Ye Nan said, and at the same time muttered in his heart: "If I don't join the Pan-Galactic Alliance, should I let the local civilizations of the galaxy and the Zerg attack me together?"

"Very good." Peters heard Ye Nan agree, his face had no expression. He took out a small chip from the cosmic warship and said: "This thing can let you connect to the internal network of the Pan-Galactic Alliance. The first contact might be a bit slow, but later, it will be updated in real-time."

"Please note, this thing is very precious. Don't lose it. If you lose it, you need to report it to the Pan-Galactic Alliance, which is very troublesome."

Ye Nan took the chip and inserted it into his watch, immediately seeing a progress bar displayed on the screen.

"Data is loading... Data loading complete... Connecting to network... Connection successful."

Then, countless information flowed from an unknown place and turned into a data stream on the watch.

"I am the No. 63 intelligent brain. Is there any service you need?" A small ball of light appeared on Ye Nan's watch, an intelligent brain that claimed to be No. 63.

"No. 63 intelligent brain? That is to say, there are sixty-three civilizations in the Pan-Galactic Alliance?" Ye Nan inquired.

"Yes, according to the order of joining the Pan-Galactic Alliance, up to now, there are a total of sixty-three civilizations, including your civilization."

"Then I joined the Pan-Galactic Alliance, is there any preferential treatment?" Ye Nan, who originally intended to ask Peters, began to ask the intelligent brain. Compared to humans, he trusted computers more.

"There is no preferential treatment. The Pan-Galactic Alliance is a loose alliance. Apart from strengthening the connection between civilizations, there is no other preferential treatment." The intelligent brain said coldly.

"Then are there any obligations?" Ye Nan asked again.

"Joining the Pan-Galactic Alliance, you need to send one person to become a rescuer of the Pan-Galactic Alliance to rescue civilizations attacked by the Zerg. Apart from this, you must not attack civilizations within the Pan-Galactic Alliance." The voice of the intelligent brain was still cold.

"If a civilization within the Pan-Galactic Alliance takes the initiative to join, what will happen?" Ye Nan asked.

"Taking the initiative to join, the Pan-Galactic Alliance will not care." The intelligent brain said.

"So that's it." Ye Nan, who received a positive answer, revealed a smile on the corner of his mouth. "I don't know if there are any other places that need attention."

"There is also the request for you to hand over the network permission to me, let me connect with the trade center of the Pan-Galactic Alliance. In addition, you need to build quantum communication satellites as soon as possible to connect with the network of the Pan-Galactic Alliance." The intelligent brain said in one breath. "Apart from these, there is nothing else."

"Connecting with the trade center, does it mean that my credit points and Silver Yuan are connected to each other?" Ye Nan asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, but it is merely an interface; credit points and silver dollars cannot be directly exchanged," the supercomputer said. "This is primarily to prevent certain civilizations from obtaining silver dollars by mass-issuing their own currency."

"I understand." Ye Nan nodded. If they were directly connected, he could completely print tens of trillions of credit points, hundreds of trillions of credit points to exchange for Silver Yuan, and then buy technology. In this way, Silver Yuan would not be strong.

And the Pan-Galactic Alliance's non-connection is similar to the floating exchange rate of Earth before the apocalypse. Of course, there are differences. No matter how the floating exchange rate fluctuates, it can essentially be converted into each other. But Silver Yuan and credit points are completely not like this; it is more like the issuance of stocks.

If your credit points have people buying them, they are treasures; if no one buys them, they are a pile of waste paper.

"It looks like I still have to join the stock market." Ye Nan's expression was strange. Before the apocalypse, Ye Nan's ICQ consortium had many branch companies listed, but in the end, they were all delisted. And this time, he was forced to join the stock market to issue his own stocks. As for the time of delisting, it was completely out of his control.

"But in the end, your own credit points still need someone to buy them. So how can you attract people to buy your credit points?" Ye Nan murmured in his heart. In the end, this is still a problem of a company's products.

The Space-Time Empire is like a company that plunged into the stock market as soon as it was established. Although it issued stocks, it had no goods and no profit points. So wanting others to buy its company's stocks is impossible.

Unless it can take out a product that shocks everyone, in that case, its company's stocks will be sought after.

But what kind of goods can make them stand out in the competition of the Pan-Galactic Alliance?

Ye Nan became tangled all of a sudden. He didn't know what kind of commodity he should use to make his civilization stand firm within the Pan-Galactic Alliance. He must take out a flagship product to shock everyone.

He understood that in this battlefield without smoke in the Pan-Galactic Alliance, various interests had already been carved up. There was nothing for him to do. It's like the United States before the apocalypse, where major consortia joined forces to carve up resources in all aspects of society. Wanting to compete with them is no different from seeking one's own death.

But Ye Nan started from an ICQ instant messaging software, gradually became the hegemon of the network industry, and then tore apart other industries to compete with other old-fashioned consortium companies. Only then did he succeed.

"This time it must be the same. First take out a flagship product to stand firm in the Pan-Galactic Alliance, and then invade other old-fashioned industries to compete with those civilizations." Ye Nan, who had made up his mind, became excited all of a sudden. In the United States before the apocalypse, he could start from scratch, and now he could do the same.

Peters, who was watching the inexplicably excited Ye Nan from the side, felt inexplicable. Of course, he didn't know how to read minds and couldn't peek into Ye Nan's thoughts.

"Ye Nan, I think you should immediately build communication satellites to connect with the network of the Pan-Galactic Alliance." Peters reminded him in a friendly way.

Obtaining contact with the Pan-Galactic Alliance through a chip and building quantum communication satellites are two completely different concepts. The former is like a wireless network, which can only make some calls, and the delay is so great that it is unbearable. The latter is a 20G fiber optic network that can perfectly connect with the server.

"Oh, right, build quantum communication satellites." Ye Nan reacted and scratched his head. "But how can we build quantum communication satellites? We don't have this technology."

Quantum communication satellites, on Earth before the apocalypse, were still in the research stage and hadn't been implemented at all.

"Actually, I can provide quantum communication satellites." A smile appeared on Peters's face. "But there is no free lunch in the world. As long as you write an IOU, I will sell it to you at a low price."

"Don't pay attention to him." Ilis's voice sounded in Ye Nan's mind. "There are quantum communication satellites inside the warship. This is a benefit provided by the Pan-Galactic Alliance to allow newly joined civilizations to connect to their network as soon as possible. It is the same as the intelligent brain, belonging to free gifts."

"Cunning." Ye Nan cursed secretly. This Peters taking out benefits to sell is simply as cunning as can be. He could imagine that when he discovers in the future that quantum communication satellites are benefits, he won't be able to do anything to Peters because Peters has the agreement in hand, and he has no way to prove that Peters deceived him. The so-called evidence is obviously useless.

"This Peters is a pit-digging guy." Ye Nan, who understood Peters's cunning thoughts, cursed in his heart.

"Intelligent brain, we don't have quantum communication satellites, what should we do?" Ye Nan abandoned Peters and went directly to ask the intelligent brain.

"Oh, I already said, I can provide it to you. Why are you still asking the intelligent brain? Do you know that you are very impolite?" Peters showed anger on his face. He said: "Intelligent brain, I have already agreed to provide Ye Nan with quantum communication satellites."

In front of the intelligent brain, he didn't mention Silver Yuan at all, and his words were ambiguous. People who didn't know would think he was providing quantum communication satellites for free, but in reality, he never said it was free.

"There are quantum communication satellites inside the warship." The intelligent brain ignored Peters and said directly, "It is the same as me, belonging to a gift given by the Pan-Galactic Alliance to the new civilization."

"How could this be?" Peters's face changed. In his cognition, the intelligent brain would absolutely not be so meddlesome. Many hidden things, if you don't ask, or even don't ask in detail, the intelligent brain won't answer. Especially since he just said he wanted to provide quantum communication satellites, according to general reasoning, the intelligent brain should default to it. Even if it didn't agree, it wouldn't explain the ins and outs of the matter.

The intelligent brain is like a robot without thinking. You ask what he answers. What you didn't ask, he absolutely won't answer. But now, the change in the intelligent brain is too big. He simply couldn't imagine why this was.

"Mr. Peters." Ye Nan looked at Peters with a smile, waiting for Peters to give him an explanation.

"Achoo, why is it so cold here? How about we go inside and talk?" Peters shrank his body, shivering with cold.

"You go first, I'll come later." Ye Nan sent a Terminator to lead Peters in, while he continued to talk to the intelligent brain.

"Can you take out the quantum communication satellite and let me see it?" Ye Nan asked.

"Yes." The intelligent brain contacted the warship's intelligent brain, and a robot took out a silver-white box. This robot was about the same as a Terminator without an anthropomorphic skin.

Ye Nan took the box, opened it, and saw something like a round bead lying quietly in the box. ===== CHAPTER 485 =====
