Byron was very appreciative of his decisiveness.
"Excellent. I will leave a trade agent here to establish a branch office, fully responsible for trade affairs."
"The arms trade will be personally overseen by my Queen Violet, to ensure that there will be no issues."
As the war machine of the Sun Empire slowly revved up, its endless outward expansion would naturally fuel an infinite demand for arms.
Before long, a positive cycle of trade would be established between the two great empires, exchanging manufactured industrial goods for gold, silver, and raw materials.
Essentially, this was the "military-industrial complex" that Byron had envisioned, comprised of arms dealers, the military, and politicians.
To become a qualified arms dealer, one had to peddle wars while selling arms. War is synonymous with a steady stream of wealth!
