Star Lord: Rob the alien race and you will get a hundred times the reward

Chapter 12 RichChapter 12: A Fortune of Ten Million
With Liu Wen piloting the Xinghai, it was heading away from Paradise Island, with its target being the desolate star system near the edge of the galaxy.

”Old Liu, where are we going next time?” Although the blue fat man didn’t like Paradise Island, he had nowhere else to go.

Liu Wen had already thought of a countermeasure, and he comforted her, ”Let’s find a desolate star system to stay in first, and fully develop the resources of the Second World. After exchanging contribution points, we can directly purchase citizenship of the Shangxia Republic from the Interstellar Alliance, and then we can enter the Blue River Empire openly.”

He had no intention of being an interstellar pirate in the main universe. If he died in the second world, as long as he did not encounter the Void Zerg, Dimensional Evil God or the like, he would only lose some spiritual power and would need to start all over again.

But if the main universe dies, it is really dead, so it is better for the main universe to be a submissive citizen and stay alive to develop.

When Fatty Blue heard that Liu Wen was going to exchange his citizenship for Shangxia Republic, he was surprised and asked, ”Why did you think of going to Shangxia Republic? Exchanging their citizenship is just acknowledging the existence of such a person. Only after making enough contributions to Shangxia Republic can they be upgraded to normal citizenship.”

”For the same price, wouldn’t it be better if we exchange it directly for a lord or something like that in the Blue River Empire?”

Liu Wen glanced at the fat man and said, ”Do you know what it means that a foreign monk is good at chanting sutras?”

”Let’s first exchange for citizenship of the Shangxia Republic, and then use this citizenship to exchange for the title of the Blue River Empire. In this way, as long as we don’t cause trouble in the Blue River Empire, the local dignitaries will not deliberately target us, and our safety will be better guaranteed.”

After hearing Liu Wen’s explanation, Fat Blue suddenly understood.

This is indeed true. Although the Shangxia Republic was established relatively late, it is currently the most prosperous among all human countries.

Especially their national conditions, which are completely driven by the entire nation to forge ahead with determination, and have the intention of gradually taking up the banner of human civilization.

It’s interesting to say that human civilization was originally a whole, but then someone unknown happened and it split into dozens of countries overnight.

The original leadership of human civilization has transformed into a federation of human nations, which plays the role of human civilization’s external military operations, diplomatic business, etc., but only has the right to humanitarian rescue internally and cannot interfere with the self-development and changes of human nations.

Human civilization was originally declining due to its large size. After the human nation became independent, it stabilized the interests of the entire human race in a short period of time and began to expand outward again.

The separation and reunion, rise and fall of human nations have generally made human civilization advance. The corruption or not of individual nations has no bearing on humanity as a whole.

As far as Liu Wen has learned, the Blue River Empire is currently in a state of serious overall corruption, with the imperial elite squandering and encroaching on the interests of the empire. This is also an important reason for the emergence of Paradise Island, which is supported by some of the imperial elite.

Although the Blue River Empire is decaying, it is still a human nation after all. There are many things that you cannot do openly, so Paradise Island came into being.

Judging from the information, the Butcher should be a hawkish figure in the Empire, advocating cutting off the rotten meat to get the Empire back on track.

There are also rumors that the Butcher originally fell in love with a man, but the man ignored her. Instead, the man became an interstellar pirate, so she hated interstellar pirates. Since she joined the fleet, she has been committed to fighting pirates. However, her style is too bad and she likes to stuff captured pirates alive into fusion reactors as fuel.

Because this matter was exposed by the powerful people behind the pirates, many of them jointly put pressure on the military, wanting to kill him with one blow. In the end, someone protected him and stuffed him into the six divisions of the Guards, which led to today’s attack on Paradise Island.

Since Liu Wen’s information channels all depended on the Internet and purchases from the Interstellar Alliance, he only had a general understanding of the situation.

The Xinghai jumped seven or eight times and was now more than three hundred light years away from Paradise Island. It randomly found a desolate star system and drilled into it. After making sure there were no man-made buildings inside, it found a planetary orbit close to the star and docked there.

Leaving the blue fat man guarding the battleship and the three sleeping children, Liu Wen hurried back to the second world, where there were still hundreds of millions of cubic meters of minerals waiting for him to process.

After logging into the second world, he checked the geographical location. Several spaceships were already quite a distance away from the point where they would enter the 121 star field. Frog was concentrating on guarding the detection radar to prevent any sudden attack.

”Wa Zai, has anything happened during this period?” Liu Wen walked into the cab and took over the command.

”Boss, you’re back. Are the little foxes okay?” Frog knew that something happened on Paradise Island, but although he was very worried about his brothers and sisters, he knew that it would be useless for him to go out. He could only do his best to do what Liu Wen arranged so that he could deal with the troubles without any worries.

”Except for the appearance of the Yakson warships in the asteroid belt, the rest of the time was very quiet.”

”The warships of the Jacobson tribe? Have they come out?” Liu Wen asked.

”No, we just went forward for a certain distance, but couldn’t find a suitable channel, so we retreated back.” Frog replied with a smile.

When Liu Wen heard that they were not caught, he was relieved immediately. He then started to think about how to transport these hundreds of millions of cubic meters of minerals back to exchange for contributions. The actual mineral content in these hundreds of millions of cubic meters was about 20%. It was undoubtedly a rich mine, but he only had a small mining ship at the moment, and the maximum he could screen was 300 cubic meters a day.

Each cubic meter is worth two contribution points. A small mining ship is worth about 100,000 contribution points, which means that at least 50,000 cubic meters are needed to exchange for one ship. The required minerals can take at least seven days to collect.

Accidents are likely to happen over a long period of time, so he must find a way to quickly deal with this batch of minerals. Selling them directly is impossible because the risk is too high. He even dares not withdraw the warship.

But after thinking about it, there is no good solution. The main reason is that the time of rise is too short, and there is not even a friend who can be trusted, let alone an ally who can be entrusted.

In addition, he was also thinking about the dock and construction materials rewarded by the golden finger. With dozens of frigate-class battleships and two level-five cruiser-class battleships, he would dare to apply for a human development certificate.

I opened the Interstellar Alliance Star Network and checked to see if there was a suitable solution.

After searching for a while, he actually found two solutions. One was commissioned collection, which was to issue a collection task in the Interstellar Alliance. However, the price was relatively high. Each small mining barge needed to pay 300 contribution points per day, and the starting period was one year.

A small mining barge only earns more than 14,000 contribution points a day. Three hundred a day can buy one-third of a mining ship in a year. In addition, this method may also have the risk of information leakage and attracting interstellar pirates.

The second method is to sell the mineral coordinates directly to mining companies or teams, but the selling price is generally only 70% of the estimated value. This is even less cost-effective. He knows that it is worth hundreds of millions of contribution points, and he will lose more than 30 million in one go. It is even less cost-effective than the first one. The only advantage is that he can get cash quickly without taking any risks.

After thinking it over, Liu Wensi couldn’t make up his mind, so he quit the game and found the blue fat man. He told him the method he had found and asked for his opinion.

After thinking for a while, the blue fat man held up his big belly and said to Liu Wen very seriously: ”Old Liu, let’s sell it. 70 million contribution points is worth a lot. If we mine it ourselves, the longer it takes, the greater the risk.”

”We don’t know when the Yaksons will show up. Besides, the previous small teams must have had detectors in the surrounding area. Our whereabouts may have been exposed long ago. We can’t rely on whether they will leak the news for the future.”

”Whatever we get is ours, and it is right to withdraw in time.”

Liu Wen listened to the blue fat man’s persuasion, so he turned into the room, logged into the second world, and posted the sale information in the Interstellar Alliance.

In just a few seconds, someone inquired for details through the Interstellar Alliance’s sales platform. Liu Wen simply posted the mineral information and spent 500 contribution points to have it certified by the Interstellar Alliance.

Soon, an unmanned scientific research vessel of the Interstellar Alliance leapt to the vicinity. After a scan with the combined radar, it was verified and the value of the mineral was set at 107 million units of psychic energy.

With the endorsement of the Interstellar Alliance, more people contacted Liu Wen, and many of them first mined on credit and then paid. These people were immediately blocked by Liu Wen. What kind of people are they?

After careful selection, we selected five large companies with strong backgrounds and capabilities to conduct online meetings through the alliance network.

In the conference room, Liu Wen looked at the five people sitting together, closed their permission to speak, and went straight to the point: ”I believe you have all seen the mineral information. It is endorsed by the Interstellar Alliance, and its authenticity is beyond doubt.”

”I won’t say much. I only have one request, which is cash. I will sell it to whoever offers a suitable price. If I am not satisfied with the price, I will find someone else to take over.”

The five people were old acquaintances. They were in the same business and had fought with each other many times for the purchase of minerals. So after Liu Wen finished speaking, they looked at each other and quietly quoted a price to Liu Wen.

Liu Wen ignored the five people who were hostile to each other. Who knew if they were just putting on a show for him? He checked their quotations and found that the price offered by An Group was the highest, at 80% of the selling price. He would pay directly after sending someone to verify it, and he could submit it to the Interstellar Alliance Business Platform for supervision first.

Compared with the prices of several other companies which are all around 70% of the original price, and they also require the location of mineral excavation, how can they not go to high prices!
”Thank you all for coming to this sales meeting. This time the minerals were acquired by An’s Group. We will cooperate again next time if there is a chance.”

Although the other four people didn’t know what price the representative of An Group had given, they all knew very well that it would definitely not reach 80%.

The representative of the An Group smiled and spread out his hands, watching the four people leave.

After the four people left, Liu Wencai said to the other party alone: ​​”Then let’s sign the contract first.”

”It should be.” The An representative applied for the standard contract of the Interstellar Alliance. After filling in the amount, both parties signed and sealed it, and the 30 million advance payment was transferred to Liu Wen’s account.

After receiving the money, Liu Wen sent the coordinates to the other party. After receiving the coordinates, the expression of the An manager was particularly interesting, and the way he looked at Liu Wen was a little different.

”Manager An, is there something wrong with the look in your eyes?” Liu Wen vaguely guessed the other party’s thoughts and asked with a smile on his face.

”No, no, I’m just curious, how did Mr. Liu find minerals in that asteroid belt?” Director An knew that he had bet on the wrong horse this time, but it was okay. Even if he couldn’t get the mining area, he would still make a lot of money in this business. But compared to expectations, it was undoubtedly a big disappointment.

Liu Wen smiled and said, ”It was just luck. I was being chased by the Yaxon warships. When I ventured through the asteroid belt, the radar happened to detect an abnormality, which led to the current scene.”

Manager An didn’t know whether what Liu Wen said was true, but it didn’t matter anymore. Everyone knew that there were many mineral deposits in the asteroid belt, but why didn’t anyone explore them?
Because it is too big and too dangerous, and there are alien forces inside, unless we assemble a fleet to destroy them first, we will not be able to mine minerals with peace of mind.

But the value of the 121 star field is just so-so to big companies like them. The gains after the war may not be able to make up for the losses of warships. It will take a long time to slowly explore the asteroid belt, and even if it is explored, it is not certain that it can be mined safely. It is undoubtedly a waste of time.

Therefore, those who can take over the 121 star field have no interest in it, and those who cannot take it have no choice but to take it. Moreover, there is the factor of the Interstellar Alliance involved, which hopes to preserve some alien species.

After all, the Interstellar Alliance is not a human alliance. Humans are not even at the top of it. It is formed by alien races, and many civilizations in it advocate diversity of civilizations, allowing various civilizations to promote each other’s development.

After obtaining the coordinates, the An Group’s mining fleet headed for the location of the Star Sea Fleet and was expected to reach the coordinate star field in four days.

Liu Wen received 30 million contribution points and immediately told Frog to stop mining and take the transport mining ship Frog Prince to check out another coordinate.

The coordinates given to Wazai are the ones that own the dock. Liu Wen has to wait for the people from the An Group to verify and receive it, so letting Wazai go first can also avoid the people from the An Group.

Frog obediently took the lead, and the Star Sea used a binding force field to take over the mineral to prevent it from floating in the starry sky.

”Brother Wen, I was almost scared to death. Those three people rushed in and gave me an injection. I thought I would never see you again, wuwuwu...”

The little fox from the fox-man tribe, who was less than 1.4 meters tall, had limp ears and kept crying while hugging Liu Wen’s thighs with both hands. However, her tail behind her betrayed her, as it was spinning like a windmill, and she was obviously very happy.

”Brother Wen, we really have warships. You’ve made so much money in less than a month since you came out!” The cat-man Maomao hugged Liu Wen’s other thigh and shook it non-stop, looking around all the time, finding everything he saw very curious.

Only Jack sat with the blue fat man with a calm face, each of them holding a glass of juice and drinking it loudly.

”Okay, get up first. We are rich now. In a few days, I will buy an identity for each of you, and then find an administrative star to settle down and send you to school.” Liu Wen said with a smile, touching the two people’s heads.

”Ah! Go to school? No, Brother Wen, I don’t want to go to school!” The little fox burst into tears as soon as he heard that he was going to be sent to school. His heartbroken look was even more painful than the blue fat man who had hundreds of credit points robbed.

Maomao was quite happy. Although she was not as smart as the little fox, she was rational and knew that she was of no help to Liu Wen now, and going to school was the only way out.

So he didn’t care about the little fox rolling around there, and happily took Liu Wen’s hand and sat down, asking them what they had done in the past month and how they earned so much money.

Liu Wen talked about the profits from mining, and the blue fat man vividly described to them the process of their battle with the Jacobson tribe for the mine, adding some exaggerations to it, which made the three of them believe it.

Jack asked, ”Brother Wen, do I have to go to school too?”

”If you want to go, go. If you don’t want to go, just stay with Frog. But we don’t have any extra login helmets right now, so you have to wait a few days.” After thinking about it, Liu Wen decided to respect Jack’s own opinion.

As a descendant of Shang Xia, Jack’s origin has always been strange. He was not cultivated from life cells in the Infant and Child Cultivation Institute itself, but was sent in after he was born.

He has always been very opinionated, with strong learning and execution abilities. The only bad thing about him is that he likes to argue with people, but he basically never argues with the boss Liu Wen.

”Thank you, Brother Wen.” Jack was very satisfied with Liu Wen’s arrangement. He naturally wanted to learn something, but he didn’t have to go to school to learn knowledge. It was the same to go to the Interstellar Alliance to receive knowledge indoctrination first, and then study on his own. If there was something he didn’t understand, he could just go to Blue River Star and buy video courses online. If that didn’t work, buying a few days of teacher guidance would have the same effect.

When the little fox heard that Jack didn’t have to go to school but he had to go, his ears fell on his head and his tail had no vitality at all.

During this time, Fatty Blue came online and replaced Frog, and there was another lively atmosphere. Everyone had a delicious meal and let Frog take everyone to visit the various compartments inside the battleship to ensure that they would not lose the way later.

Liu Wen continued to return to the second world to wait for the mining team of An Group. He practiced psychic energy while waiting. With the assistance of psychic materials, the growth rate was indeed several times faster than before. However, due to the limitation of the growth rate of spiritual energy, almost half of the psychic materials he consumed were wasted and the conversion was not successful.

Three days later, the An Group’s mining fleet arrived with two large transport ships, five medium-sized mining barges, and four level five escort-class warships.

When Manager An arrived and saw the minerals, he looked at Liu Wen strangely and said, ”You’ve already broken up the minerals. Why don’t you just rent two transport ships to tow them back and have them smelted?”

Liu Wen spread his hands and said, ”It’s too much trouble. If I sell it to you directly, I can continue to explore the universe. Who knows, I might find another mineral planet.”

The two parties quickly completed the handover and verification, and the remaining payment was received immediately. Liu Wen happily handed the minerals to the other party, and then drove the Xinghai to chase the blue fat man.
