Chapter 247 Star Gate Maintenance II
Two thousand warships were crowded around the huge star gate, which was extremely rare in the vast space.
The conversation between Ling Qi and old man Li Bu'er was still going on. After he understood the other party's intention, he was very surprised. Even if Stargate is such a giant and its engineers have such a bad image, do they still need to rely on blackmail to generate income?
Curious, Ling Qi inquired: "You said the cost of materials is high? I have some materials stored on the cruise ship. Please give me your name and see if there is anything you need. And I know how to repair, maybe I can help you. What's the price? , just calculate it as 90% of your regular cost, and give you a 10% rebate!"
Li Buer was very sensitive to the word kickback and bargained subconsciously: "Thirty percent...wait, why the hell did you charge me money?"
"I sell materials, and I can also help you with repairs. There will definitely be a fee! The Star Gate is huge. Wherever the Star Gate is built, the economic tentacles will extend. Isn't it impossible to even afford this fee?"
Li Buer kept his waist: "Boy, what's that look in your eyes? The strength of Star Gate is beyond your imagination!" The next moment he collapsed and said in frustration:
"You also know that the star gate is huge and has a lot of people to feed. It is also responsible for the construction and maintenance of all star gates. The cost is unimaginable. The fees collected from various forces every year are negligible, and we mainly rely on our own industry. Support, we are actually living very hard, and every star coin must be maximized!"
Ling Qi resisted the urge to roll her eyes. What this damn old man said was too false. She thought he didn't know anything.
The two major organizations, Stargate and Starnet, are recognized as the richest top forces.
I won’t go into details about Star Network. All currencies are controlled by it. It is the only bank in the entire universe. There are countless income-generating points online. Everyone knows that you have money.
The Star Gate controls real resources. With its super technological monopoly, it has countless economies in various star fields. It really means that wherever the Star Gate is built, its economic tentacles will be there.
Moreover, Ling Qi learned from the First Admiral that although everyone, including pirates, can use the Star Gate for free, in fact, the fees collected by the Star Gate from various forces are not low every year based on the territorial principle. For a star gate, the two principalities of Xiting and Diwu would have to share more than 100,000 star coins each year for the use and management of the star gate.
Ling Qi patiently explained to the other party that no matter how tight the situation was, there would still be costs involved, and buying from him would give a 10% discount, so why not do it.
Li Buer's veins throbbed, knowing that Ling Qi would not be fooled. Naturally, he would not buy materials from Ling Qi. The Star Gate forces themselves control a large number of resource stars, and uniformly produce and distribute the equipment modules of the Star Gate supports, so there is no need to outsource them at all.
"And I really know how to repair it. Not only can I repair common energy matrices, but I can also repair the matrices of the spacecraft's energy warehouse and thrusters!" Ling Qi continued.
Li Buer's eyes widened: "Can you cultivate the energy matrix?"
"meeting!"
Li Buer's eyes rolled for a moment, then he slapped his thigh and said, "I still have an apprenticeship in my name. Which force are you from? What is your identity? Come be my apprentice and become a member of the Star Gate from now on. No one from any force dares to provoke him!"
Ling Qi's heart moved. This thing is quite tempting. With the Star Gate logo, it means that he has obtained the best amulet, and his own car's curvature drive engine and anti-matter energy warehouse may also be available. But he doesn't know this apprentice. Will his worker status affect his freedom of movement?
"It's not easy to enter the Star Gate, and regardless of being an apprentice, as long as you are brought in by a formal engineer like me, and you can pass the assessment, you can obtain a formal status, not a hired non-staff person. . In the future, you can enjoy various benefits in the group, as well as generous pension policies. Once the contribution point is reached, you will have no worries about your pension. Well, the identity verification process cannot be sloppy, it must be a clear and clear true identity."
Li Buer said seductively.
But the better he talked, the more Ling Qi became a little suspicious, feeling that this guy was unreliable. He looked interested and asked:
"As your apprentice, what do I need to do? Will my freedom of movement be restricted?"
"It will not be restricted. There is a contribution point mechanism in the Star Gate. All tasks are dispatched through free acceptance. Engineers can take the tasks nearby and receive contribution points and star coins as rewards. Well, it is a bit like the points of the Adventurers Association. However, adventurer points have no benefits, and our contribution points are linked to group benefits."
This sounded good, so Ling Qi immediately said, "I'll discuss it with my wife first, and I'll get back to you later."
Li Buer rolled his eyes, why the hell do you still need to discuss this with his wife?
Ling Qi paused the communication and called Ao Ying to ask about the situation. As expected, Ao Ying knew some additional information: "I heard that under the unified contribution points and welfare mechanism of Star Gate, there are countless subsystems, such as exploration, manufacturing, transportation... Star Gate maintenance, etc., and each system uses pending tasks. way to simplify the operation of a huge organization.”
"If no one is doing some tasks, will they be assigned forcibly?" Ling Qi asked.
"Then increase the rewards without limit. Star Gate is rich and powerful, and there will definitely be people who will do it under heavy rewards. There is no need to force it. In fact, I heard that the competition is very fierce inside. If you want to get huge rewards, you have to grab tasks. You kind of You lazy idiot, I seem to have only successfully completed one mission since I became an adventurer, and I guess I won’t get many contribution points if I join the Star Gate.”
Ling Qi smiled awkwardly and said, "Whether I complete the task or not, it is always a good thing to obtain the talisman of the Star Gate's official identity, right?"
After Ao Ying affirmed this point, Ling Qi resumed the conversation with Li Buer and agreed to be his apprentice. Thinking that the other party wanted to extort money from him just now, he asked him how much apprenticeship ceremony he would need.
"Apprenticeship ceremony?" Li Buer looked confused for a long time, but finally told Ling Qi that it was not necessary.
Because of this apprenticeship ceremony and his own low level, he has not been able to receive an apprentice who has the ability to pass the examination. Ling Qi claims to be able to repair the energy matrix, and such a talent cannot be missed. In Stargate, even if an apprentice becomes a full-time engineer, as a former teacher, he can receive an extra star coin and contribution point reward after completing a task. Maybe in the future, he will only rely on the rewards brought by this apprentice. He can enjoy his old age in peace.
"This is my certification document. Log in to the StarNet space yourself and show the certificate to Space Intelligence. She will guide you to the virtual community of the Stargate maintenance system for identity registration. You can also learn mission information there in the future. , accept maintenance tasks, or get to know other engineers to communicate..."
