Yes, Wu Jiao believed that everything boiled down to the benefits. What was the point to stay on a planet that would not make their businessmen earn any profit?
However, what Wu Jiao had said only applied to the normal or small-time businessmen and merchants.
Of course, it would take the destruction of a planet before they decided to evacuate, after all, wars and political struggles could be turned into a profit. That was if the main boss wanted to.
Wu Jiao looked at the elders' faces and she was happy to see that they seemed to understand what she was implying. "We only have one life after all. Since our people are what dragon country citizens call outsiders, it would be a difficult decision to risk it."
"Also when we decide to establish our business in a country they could not have so many complicated rules that are mostly unfavorable to. If not why would we bother going there or staying there?" she added dismissively.
Other planets were willing to partner with them. Mostly, the offers were from influential beings having strong backgrounds, who wanted their services. So, there was no need to make their business lives difficult even if the profit would be three times the entire earning of the cruise ship in a year.
"Are you trying to imply something Manager Wang?" Long Kael stared at Wu Jiao with narrowed eyes. He needed help from the Shenxi Galactic Cruise Corp to cure his mate. The way Wu Jiao had explained did the trick to make the elders shut up.
For him as well, it was like Wu Jiao was threatening them that in the event if something really happened, the dragon country would be in trouble.
With a nervous laugh, "Your Majesty, Shenxi Galactic Cruise Corp has a very large scope that even your respectable elders are aware of it. A simple matter like an outsider's execution without proper space procedures is not really a big deal if that being did not even affiliate to us. However…" She paused for a long time while her head was tilted to the side as if Wu Jiao was thinking so deeply.
"What do you mean, however, Manager? Please continue…" One of the elders impatiently urged her to finish her statement from earlier.
"Ah… I do not think it was a good idea to continue… It was not really in my position to talk about this… It would be unethical for businessmen like me to say this…" Wu Jiao shook her head as she repeatedly said no while her hands were waving in front of her. She looked concerned and anxious with the way her face was frowning at them.
"Manager Wang! We insist! Rest assured that after you have spoken anything, it would be forgotten. The only thing that heard it, were the walls of this throne room." Han Wei encouraged as he was also personally curious about what Wu Jiao was about to say.
"Hehe. I assure you it was nothing." Wu Jiao said with a nervous laugh. She then shook hands as if she was brushing off the idea. "By the way you are Elder Han? I think we have pending cargo to be picked up and delivered to you. I am sorry that we have delayed." She said casually. It was a poor attempt to sway the topic to something else.
"Cargo? What cargo is this?" Long Kael asked with a raised brow.
Han Wei respectfully replied, "It was ordered for my house, Your Majesty. My daughter had seen a very good and pretty marble from the Blue planet that she wanted to add to the house that we are building now. She was the one who requested it. Do not worry, I will show you the marble as it was of good quality that may pass the royal palace standards as well." He offered too persuasive like a salesman.
"Hmph! You are already rich Elder Han, do not go on selling things to the king when he does not need it in the first place. The palace is already magnificent looking as it is. " One of the elders could not help but speak, tone laced with envy. If the king liked it and was placed at the palace, then the citizens who could afford it may follow too.
Where would the citizens buy the same thing? Of course from Han Wei's family as well.
"Do not worry! I only wanted to show it to the king. Making the palace more extravagant is never a bad thing. Also, I am never stingy and you all know that!" Han Wei said to the elders after he laughed. Even Long Kael did not comment anymore when he said that.
With this, Han Wei discreetly released a deep breath before he looked at Wu Jiao, "There would be no issue with the delay. However, if you did not tell us what you were supposed to earlier. Who knows, I might demand credit because of the delay." He said with a bright smile on his face.
'How dare this lowly manager mention about my order? What if the king had asked more?' No else knew what was inside that marbles or their real use and Han Wei wanted to keep it that way.
Wu Jiao released a deep heavy sigh and started to massage her head for a moment before she looked at them. "Are you really sure that you want to hear what I was going to say?" She asked like it was a warning. "We can still talk about something else…" She added offering options.
"There is no harm. Just tell us." Han Wei was losing his patience. Wu Jiao's intention to waste their time was apparent and he was getting annoyed about it.
"What about the guards?" Wu Jiao asked with a frown as she pointed at the royal guards who were still in the room.
"Manager Wu, our royal guards are all loyal. Please do not ask for unreasonable requests." One of the elders finally snapped.
"Oh… Ok…" Wu Jiao said before stepping closer towards them. When she was close enough, she started to speak softly. "Respectable elders, you know I have seen different political discussions as a guest. We are a businessman that depends on the profits from the planets and countries we do have a branch of the store." She said with her male face showing serious expression.
"Please listen as this is something confidential if you all are not yet aware of." Wu Jiao said before pausing and looked at the faces of the elders and the king like she was about to say something very important that may cause life and death.
With her saying that Long Kael was curious so he nodded. That was also the case with the elders.
Since Wu Jiao got their agreement, she continued, "The laws of each planet are mostly different depending on its rulers. It was never a good idea to impose a foreigner to follow the laws by force if it was blatantly refused to be followed."
"This was the case since way back. Because of this reason alone, the second type of law of space was agreed on silently. The first law was the one that each planet received in a tablet. You have this Mighty dragon king right?" She asked looking at Long Kael.
Long Kael nodded. He was impatient to know more what Wu Jiao was supposed to say as he had never heard of the second type of law.
"The second one could be followed if the first one was broken but the other party felt it was not just easy. It was a silent agreement that if an incident happened as an accident, then no one could blame the other or should receive the punishment." She added seriously.
"What do you mean accidents? That is unacceptable. " Another elder yelled appalled. "Are you saying that if someone died because of an accident then that being should not be held accountable?" He then clarified finding the whole thing stupid.
"Not really. Because the rule is the first law should be broken first. Let me give you an example. You have an outsider that you wanted to execute to killing one of your kind, is that right?" She asked that earned agreement from the others.
"It was against your law. The space law required this crime to be punished. This was the first law broken. Then what about the second law? It means that if some beings wanted to impose revenge from the executed party, they can do so as long as it looks like an accident,"
She said in a whisper, "That also means if they wanted to blow up your entire planet, they could get away with it because it was an accident…"
