As far as Zhang Xin knows, the Shenwei Zhang family had been a family that dominated the country as early as the Dark Ages, and many tribesmen participated in the Union's war of unification and made considerable contributions.

Therefore, there are two honorary dukes in the Zhang clan, and there are as many as four marquises. There are more than twenty people below the rest.

However, Zhang Changzhi's honorary viscount was not obtained by his ancestors serving in the army, but by donating charity.

According to federal regulations, federal citizens only need to take out a certain amount of money to do charity to obtain honorary titles. Although they cannot be hereditary, their privileges can be equal to other honorary viscounts.

As early as when Zhang Changzhi was ten years old, his parents donated more than 30 million federal coins to various charities with his reputation, thus obtaining the title of Viscount as the first-class honor.

This kind of thing is very common among the great families of the Federation. In addition to obtaining titles, donating charity can also reduce a large amount of taxes and gain a good reputation in society. Why not do it?

In the current regulations, federal citizens can obtain the highest first-class marquis and all titles below the first-class marquis by donating. However, from the viscount upwards, there is a jumping threshold. The first-class viscount is 30 million, the third-class Count is 30 million, the first-class Count is 900 million, and the third-class marquis is 30 billion. After obtaining the title, it needs to be maintained every year, which is equivalent to a charitable donation of one tenth of the amount of the title.

——This is a heavy burden even for a wealthy family like Shenwei Zhang. It should be noted that like Majestic Shipping Industry, a major group that can rank among the top ten federal shipbuilding industry, only has a net profit of 5 billion yuan per year, and has to be divided by countless shareholders of all sizes.

So even if Zhang Xin thought about it with his heels, he knew that there must be viscounts in this federation, and the barons were like the sea.

Is it necessary to be so respectful to a non-hereditary viscount of honor, and a guy whose family has suffered a catastrophe recently?

"It is naturally nothing strange for a non-hereditary viscount of honor. But if this person is still the legal heir of Magna Control, his status will be different."

Ye Ruo explained in Zhang Xin's ear: "Master, don't underestimate the influence of the Shenwei Zhang family, especially this new Kunming star, which is only 37,000 light-years away from the Guangcheng Star Domain. Weiyan Group is here, with at least ten subsidiaries and hundreds of affiliated companies. The taxes paid every year alone account for one-tenth of the fiscal revenue of the new Kunming star government."

When Zhang Xin heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Ye Ruo sideways. He thought to himself, why didn't this guy hide it yet, and wouldn't he be afraid of being discovered?

The latter also noticed his eyes, and after he stuck out his tongue in a cute way, the sound of the tent turned into smoke and dissipated without a trace.

At this time, what Zhang Xin didn't know was that in the bridge of the second-class cruiser, the major commander named Zhou Ning was rubbing his eyebrows in great distress. Beside him, another chief of staff of the fleet with the captain's ejection was also bloodless and his eyes were full of regret.

"Why is it that coincidental? Why did it happen to be our Ninth Patrol Fleet? If I had known this, I wouldn't have agreed to change the patrol area a few days ago."

"At this time, is it useful to complain about these?"

Zhou Ning sighed: "We are not the only ones who are going to have a headache now."

He has reported the news about Zhang Changzhi's appearance. I believe that the commander of the S3 space base and the commander of the new Kunming patrol fleet will be even more troubled.

"But after all, we are directly contacting the prince of the Zhang family. Once there is something wrong with the Zhang family-"

The chief of staff of the fleet paused and said thoughtfully: "If there is any accident in this prince, everyone will be happy."

"I think you're crazy!"

Zhou Ning glared at his assistant coldly: "The enemies of the Zhang family are not yet at the point of covering the sky. You don't know the power of the Magnificent Group in the New Kunming Star. Why do you still say such stupid words? No matter where something happens to Zhang Changzhi, you and I cannot be the New Kunming Star, otherwise you and I, together with their families and children, will not have any good ending."

The Chief of Staff of the Fleet immediately turned pale: "I think it's a bad idea, you're right, Captain of the Fleet."

He had already figured it out that even if the Shenwei Zhang family declined, their remnants could easily trample them into the eighteen levels of hell.

What's more, the enemy of Shenwei Zhang may not appreciate it.

"It's good that you can know the importance of it. I just pretended that I had never heard of the previous sentence."

Zhou Ning's face was solemn and cold: "Anyway, let's see how the identity detection results are! Actually, there is no need to worry too much. If the prince of the Shenwei Zhang family returns, it will not only be our patrol fleet. Even the government must intervene."

※※※※

When Zhang Xin came to the second-class cruiser on a traffic boat, the commander Zhou Ning and others here also respected him very much.

There seemed nothing wrong with this, but Zhang Xin found that these officers were respectful but not very enthusiastic, and everyone kept a certain distance from him.

Zhang Xin couldn't help but frown slightly, thinking that the situation facing Shenwei Zhang looked quite bad.

The return of the heirs of the Weiyan Group is certainly a good crisis for the people in front of them, but it is also an opportunity to win the favor of the dragon.

When he thought that someone would come up at this time and show his closeness to him.

But the result was beyond Zhang Xin's expectations, and no one wanted to have this opportunity to stand out.

This can only happen in two situations. One is that all the officers in this squadron are indifferent to fame and fortune; the other is that they are extremely dissatisfied with the Shenwei Zhang family and do not believe that this aristocratic family that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years can escape safely from this crisis and be afraid of taking on the consequences of failure.

At this moment, in a corner that no one noticed, the nanorobot controlled by Ye Ruo was already trying to steal the information stored in the main computer of this cruiser.

This was originally a very difficult thing. The technology of the Earth Federation is quite advanced. Even this second-class cruiser has a monitoring system including more than a dozen detection instruments. It is difficult to hide any abnormal movements in the ship from the main brain.

In addition, the protective wall and anti-invasion mechanism of the cruiser's main computer itself are also top-notch.

But this was when Zhang Xin did not intervene. With the help of this third-level mind master, Ye Ruo easily completed the invasion.

The purpose of the latter is not the core data such as the control system and fire control system of this ship, but only various electronic newspapers and magazines that are stored in it. Try to understand the current situation within the federal government through these.

And just a moment later, Ye Ruo had already presented some information to Zhang Xin's eyes.

"There is a lot of bad news!"

Ye Ruo's voice was not very frustrated: "Master, your parents were indeed detained by the Federal Security Bureau. Moreover, the core members of the entire Shenwei Zhang family did not escape, with a total of 123 people, all of whom were detained. All the underage children were also taken care of. Although they could contact the outside world, they could not move freely."

"So what's the reason?"

Zhang Xin said while flipping through these previous newspapers and magazines. After that, his eyes were already fixed before Ye Ruo's reply.
