Capítulo 169: The settlement

Actually Nova Prime didn't expect the first approach to go so smoothly. When the scientists of the Empire went through the recordings and visuals of the huge spaceship floating in the space near Xandar and the drop ship in the docks they already evaluated the ships as of higher level of technology.

Even though they didn't know how powerful it was, they were sure that this kind of technology had never appeared. The Nova Prime was hoping that John would be able to share the technology. This would helpful for them as that could give them an edge in the war against the Kree. Even though they had a peace agreement with Hala but many factions of the Kree empire didn't accept the agreement.

"Mr. Jameson. How would you like to like this exchange to carry on?"

"I have brought my Secretary in the mother ship. I would like to call him and he would decide the general direction of the business settlement. I hope that is acceptable as I am not very proficient in business matters."

"Sure. Why not? I too will have to talk with the council as this business will be done through government channels."

"OK he will be here soon. I want to buy a good place to live here too as I will be establishing the company here." John added.

"Yes. Of course. You can choose any residential place. You won't have to pay anything. The Empire will pay the price." Nova Prime said.

"No.. No.. we have enough money to buy a good place. Thank you for the offer but we will be able to buy one." John said with a serious tone.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes." John replied. The Nova prime who was talking with John stole few glances of Victor and finally she couldn't hold herself back and asked

"I am sorry but I am little curious about the face of Mr. Stone. Even though we have registered you as temporary citizen here which doesn't need facial features to be recorded but buying a place would require a proper picture."

"Of course. Victor you can remove the hood." Victor removed the hood. When Irani saw his face he was taken aback. She didn't expect a cyborg and she could tell that it was a high level technology.

She wondered how advanced were their technology to even make such an advanced cyborg. She was now sure that John's civilization was very much advanced and powerful.

"Sorry if I offended you Mr. Stone. I didn't know you were a cyborg." She said politely.

"No it's fine. I am surprised that the guards didn't stop me from entering as having a cyborg in such a close distance with the ruler isn't so conventional." Stone said.

"I was sure that you didn't have any bad intentions as you had left your mother ship behind. This showed that you have enough sincerity to actually establish trade."

John left after that as he needed to extract Lex in FOS and then command him to come here and follow his instructions. Lex would be the perfect person to build a company and manage it.

They went back to hotel and John said to Victor.

"I am going to guide Luthor here and open a company under his name and make necessary trade. This would help us expanding and managing."

"Lex? Are you sure he will listen to you?" Victor asked as all of the summons doesn't have the notion that they are just summons as John always planted false memories in their brain through the system.

"Yes. My only power isn't just guiding other worldly beings. Occasional manipulation is also one of my powers. I will summon him in FOS." John said.

He then proceeded to waste 50 million fan values to summon Lex in FOS and then directed him to take a transformed drop ship and arrive at the docks.

"Victor he will be in the docks soon. Take him to the Nova Prime. I have already told him about the general idea of the exchange. You will be the one who will exchange the information as you are good at data manipulation. Don't give them anything about the phantom drive. Just normal technology of drop ship and maybe a portion of weapons technology. We will share the phantom drive technology when the time is right."

"I understand." Victor replied as he went to the docks. John left for searching a good place to buy a mansion as he wanted to spend his money here. This would be his holiday villa where he and Emma could always spend their time away from all the paparazzi on Earth.

After a whole day of searching with the help of Rhomann Dey as his guide he finally chose a villa just outside the city in a very high end area overlooking the sea. John spent 2 million units in buying the house. Meanwhile, Lex had arrived. Victor had a stern eye on him but Lex didn't mind that.
