In terms of materials, the origin planet itself could satisfy more than half of the requirements. Only a small number of materials needed to be purchased on the Skynet. The additional cost of producing an advanced mecha did not exceed 500 million star field points.

Ning Shi had wiped out all the nobles and killed the upper echelons of the Republican Party. He had plundered a total of hundreds of billions of star field points.

With over 100 billion in savings, it was enough to create more than 200 advanced mechas. He did not need to earn any more star field points in a short period of time.

As for the penalty for canceling the contract, it was basically negligible.

Back then, the Jiang family could not use force because of the Origin Planet Development Convention. In order to make the Norse Republic willingly sign the contract, the Jiang family gave many discounts on the terms of the contract.

This included the penalty for breaching the contract. It was very low, only a symbolic amount of 10,000 star field points.

Wei Yanping, as the governor, knew all of this very well. So why did he interrupt and object to Ning Shi’s proposal to cancel the contract?

Wei Yanping’s previous instructions to Ning Shi were not like this. Previously, he had always followed orders and prohibitions.

The meaning behind this made Ning Shi ponder deeply.

Ning Shi knew that Wei Yanping had benefited from the contract, but he didn’t interfere. As an Archon, Wei Yanping had taken bribes, but Ning Shi didn’t pursue them. He knew that if the water was too clean, there would be no fish. As long as Wei Yanping did things well for him, Ning Shi didn’t care about the matter of making money as long as it wasn’t too much.

But this time, it was obviously not right. Wei Yanping actually dared to refute his set tone for a little benefit. This was not a good sign.

Ning Shi glanced at Wei Yanping. He could feel that although Wei Yanping was sweating profusely and his face was pale, his heartbeat was very stable. It was obvious that he was pretending to be afraid.

Ning Shi laughed and said, “Looks like you’ve found a new backer. The Jiang family of Banner Planet is indeed a top choice.

“With the Jiang family’s technology, it’s not difficult to help you remove the chip bomb in your body. Why didn’t you ask them to help you remove the chip bomb in your heart?¹‘

Wei Yanping was still carrying the Level U sub-body that Ning Shi had arranged for him. His every move was under the surveillance of Ball, and Ning Shi thought that he did not defuse the bomb.

Wei Yanping’s heart beat faster when he heard Ning Shi mention the chip bomb. It was as if he was panicking.

He quickly adjusted himself and revealed a loyal expression that said that he would do his best for the lord. He said to Ning Shi, “My lord, I am sincerely thinking for you. Everything I do is for your benefit.

“The Jiang family is the overlord of the First Star Field. They have ruled the First Star Field for more than four thousand years. They can easily wipe out all our forces with just a single army.

“We can’t afford to offend such a family. If you stop the contract, you will definitely be destroyed. Everything I said is the truth. It’s all for your future.

“Since ancient times, honest advice is unpleasant to the ear. If my lord wants to punish me because of this, I will accept it!”

Ning Shi saw Wei Yanping’s acting and suddenly felt disgusted. He knew that this spy sent by the aristocrats to the Republican Party was a villain who had the talent to betray his master.

Ning Shi knew that this kind of person would betray him sooner or later, but he did not expect it to come so quickly.

“Wei Yanping, stop pretending,” Ning Shi said coldly. “You’ve joined the Jiang family and kept threatening me with the Jiang family. You think I don’t dare to detonate the chip bomb, right?”

When Wei Yanping heard that Ning Shi had shed all pretense of cordiality, he really stopped pretending. He straightened his body and put away his fawning expression. His entire body emitted a feeling that he had everything under control.

The aura of a superior Archon was completely unleashed.

He smiled proudly and said to Ning Shi, “Lord Ning Shi, you’re really smart. I knew I couldn’t hide it from you.

“That’s right, I’ve already completely sided with the Jiang family. The Jiang family gave me an anti-destructive pill. I’ve long since secretly taken it to dispel the chip bomb in my heart.

“I didn’t plan to fall out with you and even planned to secretly assist you. I didn’t expect you to stop the contract. Not only is the Jiang family paying attention to this matter, but Deacon Jiang Qingyun is also very angry. He can get close to 5 billion star field points from the contract every year.

“Deacon Jiang was furious. I could only come over to persuade him.

“It’s a pity that you didn’t listen to good people’s advice, which made the situation so stiff.”

Ning Shi saw that Wei Yanping had finally revealed his true colors and was not in a hurry. He calmly drank a cup of tea and said faintly, “Looks like this Jiang Qingyun is the new master you’ve sought refuge with?”

With Wei Yanping’s status, it was already very good for him to be able to get close to the Jiang family’s deacon. As for the Jiang family’s head or the direct descendants, Wei Yanping had no way of getting in touch with such big shots.

When Ning Shi heard Wei Yanping mention the deacon’s name, he guessed that Wei Yanping had started to interact with the Jiang family’s deacon after he became the Archon and took over the contract.

He slowly joined the deacon and obtained the antidote for the chip bomb from the deacon.

Wei Yanping and Jiang Qingyun probably communicated through the first-person perspective on the Skynet. Ball’s sub-bodies could not monitor the internal information of the Skynet, so Ning Shi did not get any news.

When Wei Yanping heard Ning Shi’s slightly mocking question, not only was he not ashamed, but he was even a little proud of it. He continued to say proudly, “Since ancient times, good birds choose trees to live in. I’m the same. When I meet a better backer, I naturally have to seize the opportunity..”
