Chapter 364, Interstellar Slaves
In the first 50 years of the 22nd century, the Empire calmed down and focused on developing technology and researching warp engines. It was very low-key and did not expand at all. There were several times when the Kalan Empire even thought that the Empire was easy to bully, so it attacked the Empire's border again. In the end, it was beaten to a pulp by the Empire. After ceding land and paying compensation, it realized the horror of the Empire.
The Empire did not continue to expand externally, but the countries that originally split the Earth Federation were constantly expanding in the universe. The Pan-European Union, Japan, and the Canis Minor Federation, three human forces, have been expanding externally in the past 50 years.
Among them, the most aggressive expansion is the Pan-European Union and Japan. The Pan-European Union itself is very powerful. The forces that make up the forces are European and American countries in the Earth Federation, such as the United States, Britain, France, Germany, etc., with large populations and advanced technology. When the Earth Federation split, they also got the largest piece of the pie, 2 galaxies, several large fleets, and their strength can be said to be very powerful.
In the past few decades, the Pan-European Union has developed very rapidly and has never stopped expanding. With the Victoria Galaxy and the Columbus Galaxy as the center, in just 50 years, the Pan-European Union has now occupied 7 galaxies and has 10 life planets.
Another group that has expanded very aggressively is the Japanese. The Japanese have always been ambitious. Since they monopolized the Beichuan Galaxy, they have tried their best to continuously develop technology and strengthen their strength, and continue to expand outward. With the Beichuan Galaxy as the center, they now have 3 galaxies and 4 life planets, which is crazy.
As for China in the solar system, although its strength is also strong, because the galaxies connecting the space-time ocean currents around the solar system have been occupied, it can only expand in the direction of the Loen Empire, but the Loen Empire has already built a strong defense near the space-time ocean currents, and has heavy troops ambushed.
The strength of China on Earth is not much stronger than that of the Loen Empire. It is impossible to break into the Canis Major Galaxy to defeat the Loen Empire. The Centaurus Galaxy and the Aquila Galaxy belong to the Empire, and the Chinese dare not have the slightest era. As for the Canis Minor Galaxy, some of the more powerful countries in the Earth Federation originally occupied it, such as Asan, Africans, South Asians, etc.
The strength is not to be underestimated, not to mention that they are both human civilizations, so it is naturally impossible to expand to the Canis Minor Galaxy, and they can only helplessly stay in the solar system. Of course, China is now closely connected with the Empire, and countless Chinese people have chosen to immigrate to the Empire, which is also a kind of expansion.
As for the Federation in the Canis Minor Galaxy, although there are several powerful countries, the forces here are too complicated, and many are still pig teammates. More than 50 years have passed, and the strength has not actually improved. There are constant internal conflicts, and there is not much energy to expand externally, but it has also expanded a galaxy externally.
After 50 years of expansion, it can be said that the surrounding starry sky is already under the control of human civilization, but as the scope becomes wider and wider, we finally begin to contact the powerful civilization on the sub-spiral arm of the Orion spiral arm.
Qiuyun Galaxy, 10.2 light years away from Beichuan Galaxy, was not originally called Qiuyun Galaxy. Since the Japanese occupied this galaxy, it was renamed Qiuyun Galaxy.
The Japanese took the Beichuan Galaxy as the center. In just 50 years, several galaxies around the Beichuan Galaxy fell into the rule of the Japanese one after another. The Japanese were also very lucky. They did not encounter any powerful civilizations in these galaxies and took them down easily.
At this time, on Qiuyun Star in the Qiuyun Galaxy, a mighty army of immigrants was constantly building their new home on this planet, fully learning and referring to the external expansion system of the Yanhuang Empire. The Japanese also formulated corresponding interstellar colonization laws, and immigrants to the new galaxy also obtained a good piece of land.
"Pa! Pa!"
"You bunch of pig-like slaves, work faster. If you don't finish on time, I will kill you all."
On Qiuyun Star, several Japanese people were whipping a group of indigenous slaves with whips in their hands. These indigenous slaves were tall, more than 2 meters tall, with very strong muscles, wearing very simple coarse linen, and some were even naked and working barefoot.
With the continuous expansion of human civilization, more and more galaxies have been brought under the control of human civilization. The civilizations on many planets are still in the initial stage. Whether it is the Japanese or the Pan-European Union, they can easily conquer these primitive natives.
The Japanese and the Pan-European Union are not like the Empire to ban slaves. On the contrary, they have also issued corresponding slave laws to legalize the sale and use of interstellar slaves. Therefore, marginal planets like Qiuyun Star will basically have a large demand for slaves in the early development. Machines are machines after all, and there are some things that machines can never replace people.
These slaves who were beaten were actually all indigenous Olims born on Qiuyun Star. They were strong and powerful. The Japanese not only used them to develop Qiuyun Star, but also sold these Olims to human civilization countries such as the Pan-European Union, Canis Minor Federation, Aberdeen Federation, etc., and they were very popular.
Interstellar slaves, this industry that is full of blood from beginning to end, from inside to outside, seems to be naturally applied again by humans without learning. The Japanese squeezed the value of these interstellar slaves to the extreme, without wasting any of it, and derived companies specializing in interstellar slave trade, relying on interstellar slaves to make a fortune.
Even if these Olims were whipped, they dared not make a sound, even if they did not dare to raise their heads, they could only continue to work, and their hands and feet became more nimble. They knew that these dwarves were terrible and had long been trained to be obedient.
"Sanben, don't beat these slaves to death. These slaves are very valuable now. They can be sold for 100 Chinese Yuan each in the Pan-European Union."
Watanabe Kotaro saw Sanben Ikki whipping these Olims for no reason, and whipping them very fiercely. These whips are specially made, with very sharp small hooks and other things on them. If you whip them casually, they will leave a bloody mark on the skin and flesh. If you whip them hard, they will definitely be torn apart.
Hearing Watanabe Kotaro's words, Sanben Ikki smiled disdainfully, and his hands did not stop. He whipped several slaves fiercely several times in succession, beating these Olims one by one, with their skin and flesh torn apart, and their strong muscles were whipped with blood, but they dared not make a sound, let alone resist, because they knew that if they made a sound or resisted, they would probably be beaten to death.
"Watanabe-kun, you just came from the Kitagawa galaxy not long ago, you may not know that these lowly Olim people are very strong, just like cattle, so it's no big deal to whip them casually."
"Whip them every day, they will work harder."
After whipping the slaves, Sanben Yimu walked to Watanabe Kotaro and said with a smile.
"Soga, it seems that Sanben-kun is very knowledgeable about training slaves."
Watanabe Kotaro nodded as if he had been taught.
"Haha, Watanabe-kun, you're too kind. I also learned this from someone. These interstellar slaves are easier to train if their civilizations are not developed. For example, these Olims were originally in the slave civilization stage, so it will be easy to train them. I heard that the indigenous civilizations on the Big Moon Star in the Big Moon Star System have already developed, and the slaves on the Big Moon Star are prone to problems. Last time, there was a slave riot on the Big Moon Star."
Sanbon Ikki was also happy to be complimented and began to talk about interstellar slaves. Unlike the practice of the Empire, the expansion of the Japanese and the Pan-European Union basically will not exterminate the local civilization, but will sell these local natives as interstellar slaves and squeeze out all their value.
"I've also heard about what happened on the Big Moon Star. They're just a bunch of native slaves. With our current technology, it's easy to control them. I heard that the Mitsui Group has developed a slave collar. As long as the slave dares to resist, just press it lightly and the slave will be blown to pieces by the explosives in the collar."
Watanabe Kotaro also nodded. With the rise of interstellar slaves, various industries surrounding interstellar slaves have also begun to flourish. For example, the slave arena is now the most popular entertainment project. I don't know how many slaves die in the interstellar arena every day, and I don't know how much money is involved in gambling in the arena.
"Just now you said that the Olim people can be sold for 100 Han yuan each in the Pan-European Alliance?"
Sanben Yimu nodded, then remembered something and asked hurriedly.
"Well, the Olims are strong and are very popular slaves. I estimate that the price is still rising. The hundreds of Olims in your hands are now worth tens of thousands of Han Yuan."
Watanabe Kotaro nodded and said with some envy. Han Yuan is the currency of the Yanhuang Empire. It is now the most popular currency among the countries of human civilization, because only with Han Yuan can the high-tech products of the Yanhuang Empire be purchased. Of course, it must go through the link of China.
"100 Han Yuan? It seems that I really have to be light. If I die, the loss is really big."
Sanben Yimu smiled when he heard it.
Just as the Japanese continued to develop Qiuyun Star, in the dark and gloomy void in the Kuiper Belt area on the edge of the Qiuyun Galaxy, a huge fleet suddenly appeared in the void, and each space battleship was marked with a triangle.
