Humility

"Mrs. Xev Xrexus... Hehe. So you are talking about that, and I got an invitation card." Ni Yongxiao crossed his legs and played with a lighter in his hand, " Mrs. Bixi and Dryden Voss also received invitations. Basically, all the prominent people in the underworld in the Milky Way have received invitations, probably... there are more than 200 people."

"Then why give it to me? I'm not a gangster..." Gross Shelby shook the invitation in his hand.

"That's because you don't understand the recent affairs in the underground world." Ni Yongxiao gestured to Tang Xiao with a cigarette between his hands, and after getting approval, he lit one for himself.

"Huh..." It seemed that the addiction to cigarettes had been suppressed for quite a while, Ni Yongxiao took a deep breath but then put out more than half of the remaining cigarette butts, raised his head and said: "The Black Sun has been destroyed, Alexi- Garyn was killed. The video of him and the remaining Vigo's heads being burned on a mysterious magic circle was widely circulated on the Galaxy Information Network, and it also sent a signal to many underground worlds—it's time to reshuffle the cards ."

"And Xev Xrexus was a part of the Black Sun before, but when she found out that the Black Sun was being besieged by several Major Corporate Giants, she resolutely left. She later got close to a high-level Sector Manager of the Trade Federation, manufacturing and smuggling Droideka Destroyer Droids for the Trade Federation, but this relationship is not on the table after all. Now that the Black Sun is destroyed, she is eager to test the attitude of those people, and you are one of the key points." Ni Yongxiao said.

"Me?" Gross frowned, trying to understand the reason, "After all, we have suppressed the Black Sun before, and naturally she was among them. So she wanted to make sure that I am still hostile to her now? So said, she also invited people from the Trade Federation and the Corporate Alliance."

"Her strength is not worth mentioning in our opinion, but for many other underworld organizations, she is still quite a deterrent. At least as far as I know, the Hutts will give her some face." Ni Yongxiao said, "How? Do you still think this is a date with the Governor?"

Gross was looking up information on the universal tool on her wrist, and then she waved the light screen out, and smiled mockingly, "Xrexus Cartel? She has to thank her eight ancestor generations for being able to come to their meeting place. Why can't you date, right, Governor."

She looked at Tang Xiao again and smiled.

"It seems that this is indeed the case. If she auctions off a Jedi apprentice, she is also testing the attitudes of these underworld organizations and large enterprises. After all, if her heart is for the Republic, she will never allow this auction to succeed." Tang Xiao nodded, "Arrange it, I will participate in this auction as your bodyguard."

Gross Shelby was shocked, "Body...bodyguard? How dare I do this!"

"This is an order, so I don't need to say more. Because if my guess is right, something very interesting will happen in this auction." Tang Xiao turned to Ni Yongxiao and said, "You and us will act separately, there is no other task, do whatever you want, and have fun. Xev Xrexus is just a little guy, just go and have fun, leave after the auction, don't stay."

Ni Yongxiao nodded.

...

Drazkel System, a secret Space Station of the Xrexus Cartel.

This is a Large-Scale Comprehensive Space Station orbiting a satellite in the Drazkel System. The so-called 'comprehensive', to put it bluntly, is a space villa, which is favored by many rich people.

Under the escort of two Assault-class Light Destroyers, the representative of the Fourth Group, Gross Shelby, arrived here by Shuttle. There are already hundreds of spaceships gathered around the Space Station, but after showing their identification codes, their spaceships were immediately greeted by several welcoming spaceships from the Space Station to the dedicated platform.

Gross Shelby is wearing a purple-black dress with a huge green gemstone on her chest and black bird feathers on her shoulders. Her golden wavy hair hangs down on her chest, and she is beautiful and mature her face is both dignified and elegant, but also charming and moving.

She swiped on the communicator and said: "The Trade Federation naturally has no time to deal with her now, and Parcel Argente didn't give her the face of the Corporate Alliance. Therefore, we are the protagonists tonight, oh!"

As she spoke, she hugged Tang Xiao's arm excitedly, showing the little girl's posture. Only on such a private occasion would she show this side in front of Tang Xiao.

"Be low-key, just sit and watch the development of the matter. Also, pay attention to your identity." Tang Xiao smiled slightly.

"Oh~~~Master Bodyguard, since you have to pay attention to your identity, your hand is in the wrong place." Gross gently pinched Tang Xiao's salty pig's hand aside with two fingers.

Tang Xiao coughed dryly, his face became serious, and he put his hands behind his back, and immediately entered the role of bodyguard.

The cabin door opened, and Xev Xrexus had personally led a group of entourages to greet him outside the Shuttle cabin door. She is a middle-aged woman in her 40s, with short blond hair, blood-red lips, and wide cheeks. She is not a beautiful woman, but at least as the leader of a group, she still has some temperament.

Seeing Gross come down, Xev hurriedly greeted her enthusiastically, and said excitedly: "Miss Shelby, it is really an honor for you to come to our party! Oh, you are so beautiful, I just watched you come out of the Galactic Senate from a distance in Coruscant before, and I was amazed by your beauty at that time, looking at it now, the whole party exists for you alone!"

The flattery is well done. Tang Xiao came to this conclusion.

It's no wonder that Xev Xrexus is acting like this, after all, the current Fourth Group can be said to be in full swing. Whether it is launching the first super-spec warship on the market, the Revelation-class Light Cruiser, or helping Planet Sy Myrth to establish their own warship production line, and establishing a subsidiary Hiigara Aerospace Group, it is a great effort.

Now it is cooperating with the Trade Federation to develop a thousand-meter-class Battlecruiser, the Hiigaran-class! This allowed the Fourth Group to directly become the top five existences in the Galaxy in the field of warship manufacturing!

A super business leader of this level is actually willing to come to his party in person. If nothing else, just go out and talk about this matter with people in the future, and her back will be straightened a lot, and his level will also be improved.

"Oh, you mean that time in the Galactic Senate. I was there to quarrel." Gross Shelby responded lightly, blocking Xev's flattery.

"Uh..." Xev choked for a moment, smiled awkwardly and said, "We did capture a Jedi Apprentice this time, her spaceship was shot down by pirates, her master desperately saved her life, and she but he died in the ruins. Then, he was captured by our bounty hunters. If you are interested, I will send you this Jedi Apprentice."

Gross waved his hand, "No, just pretend I don't exist. I'm just here to relax."

After speaking, he ignored Xev and walked forward.

Xev didn't dare to neglect, quickly followed her and welcomed her into a luxurious box.
