The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons

In fact, during this period of time, Li Qing had already figured out his future development model - to buy shares in other large teams first, to form his own small team during this period, and then to win a living planet in the future, and sell the shares in exchange for a huge sum of money , and then break away from the team to build their own team, maybe even create a legion in the future.

To maintain a sufficiently competitive team requires too much capital, and he doesn't want to attract capital to enter the market. He wants to earn enough money by himself. First, he will jointly win a planet with other teams, and then use It is the best way to exchange planetary shares for funds.

Therefore, after gathering the team members and distributing all the money that belonged to them, Li Qing contacted Yu Yuefei again.

Still so youthful and beautiful, her appearance is exquisite and flawless, and when she smiles on her face, it is very pleasing to the heart.

"You made a wise choice, so when you are free, I will call the core members of the team to hold a welcome ceremony for you, and sign the contract by the way!"

Li Qing waved his hand and said:

"No rush, I think we need to redraw the contract first."

Yu Yuefei smiled and said:

"Do you think that 0.5% of the original stock is not enough? In fact, besides you and me, the Jialan team has three psykers. As psykers, they can only occupy 0.5% of the original stock. The original shares are different because they have brought huge benefits to the team in other aspects, so they can occupy more original shares.”

"Or, you can also say that you have other advantages, and I will evaluate its effect on the team and change the original share allocation."

Li Qing said seriously:

"I do have some advantages in my hands that can be of great benefit to the team."

"Please say."

"I have a blueprint for the Dauntless flagship!"

Yu Yuefei raised her Liuye eyebrows slightly, with a look of surprise in her eyes:

"You have a dreadnought blueprint? Can you show me?"

"I used to take out a mortgage to run a business, but I can redeem it this time when I go back."

"Well, if it's a fearless flagship blueprint, you can get an additional 2% of the original stock."

"in addition."

In the middle of speaking, Li Qing suddenly stopped and did not continue.

He was going to say that he had a space-type relic in his hand, but after thinking about it, if he used this investment to get the original stock, it would mean that this space-type relic had to serve the team.

After all, this is not a spatial relic, but the universe in the palm of your hand, your golden finger hole card, if you use this as a stake, you will have a lot of trouble in the future.

"Let's forget it, 2.5% of the shares is not low."

Thinking about this, he raised his head and said:

"Not for now, that's all."

Yu Yuefei didn't think too much, nodded and said:

"That being the case, how about signing the contract when you return to Jinmen to redeem the dreadnought blueprint?"

Li Qing nodded:

"Okay, I'll be back in five months."

"OK."

Seeing the disappearance of the beauty communication, Li Qing tilted his head and recalled what he said just now, but he didn't see any problem.

Psyker status is only 0.5% of the original stock, and the blueprint of the dreadnought can get 2% which is quite a lot. To be honest, if it is not for the rarity of the blueprint, it is not worth 2% of the original stock in terms of value alone.

Moreover, it is still in the early stage of development. If ten years later, if you bring a dreadnought blueprint over at that time, you may not even get 1% of the original shares.

The total value of the 2.5% non-dilutable initial shares of a living planet depends on the situation of the living planet, but at least it can be worth several trillions.

The premise is to grab a planet.

Two days later, the prepared team set off again and returned to Jinmen Province.

This time they learned how to behave, and went straight to the big fleet without any danger. It took a total of two months to return to Jinmen.

Back in Jinmen, he immediately repaid all the debts plus interest, and redeemed all the blueprints of the warships. The total cost was 4.46 million star dollars, and the remaining 78.7 billion star dollars.

In just two trips, his net worth has directly doubled from 40 billion. The efficiency of making money made Li Lie and others very excited, and they bet all their existing funds on it without hesitation.

Li Qing didn't waste the 78.7 billion star dollars, he bet all of them, and bought all the food.

Although the price of food at the outpost has shrunk significantly due to the purchase of food on the last trip, there is still a 37% profit, which is more profitable than most commodities.

However, the most important factor for Li Qing to choose food is that the food is easy to purchase, unlike some materials that require a threshold.

Compared with the total value of the previous trip of 280 billion, the total value of this trip is as high as 380 billion. If he hadn't paid off some debts, the profit would have been higher.

Another two months later, the fleet returned to the outpost and sold all supplies to the expeditionary force.

However, there was a small accident during the period. It is estimated that in the past two months, other caravans have shipped a large amount of food. The purchase price has been reduced from 37% to 34%, and the profit has dropped by 3%.

There's no way, we can't stop other people from doing business.

Moreover, after he delivered this batch of food, the food stored by the expeditionary army was somewhat saturated, and the subsequent purchase price directly hit a 27% premium, which dropped by a large amount.

Li Qing knew at a glance that the food business is not easy to do, and it is only 28% now. After they return to Jinmen and come here for another four months, there will be caravans coming one after another, and the profit will be less and less. Now This stage is not easy to do.

Therefore, before Li Qing set off for Jialan headquarters, let Li Lie, Li Qi and the others know about the latest market conditions and see which one is the most profitable.

The headquarters of Jialan is not at the outpost. In fact, the headquarters of all the large teams in the Zutar star field are not at the outpost, but behind the outpost.

The outpost of the expeditionary army headquarters is located on the edge of the joint civilization of the Shata Tribe, at its junction. At this time, the undisguised invasion of human civilization has long been regarded as an act of war by the Shata Tribe United. At this time, they are actually at war. stage.

The large star field to the east of the expeditionary force is already a battle area at this time. Every day, cruiser fleets and scout ships from both sides confront each other in that star field. A large number of player team fleets are active in that area, and even sneaked into the Shata tribal alliance. Inside the civilization, various reconnaissance, infiltration, sabotage and other activities emerge in endlessly.

All players who enter the expeditionary outpost will automatically receive two unlimited general tasks.

One is reconnaissance, entering the sphere of influence of the Shata Tribal United Civilization, reconnaissance of various valuable information, as long as it is unknown valuable information, you can get the contribution value of the expeditionary army, and accumulating enough contribution points can increase the player's ability in the expeditionary army. Permissions, and exchange of contribution points for various good things, such as battleship blueprints and the like.

The second task is conventional combat. Destroying a foreign frigate will contribute 2 points, a destroyer will contribute 5 points, a cruiser will contribute 30 points, and a battleship will contribute 1000 points. If you can destroy the foreign race's flagship, you will directly get level 3+ permission.

The eastern combat area is very dangerous. When the preparations are almost full-scale in the future, the east of the outpost will be very dangerous, so the headquarters of all teams are behind the outpost.

There may be occasional reconnaissance fleets from other races coming to destroy them, but the frequency and scale will not be too large, and large teams can resist by themselves.

The headquarters of Yu Yuefei's Jialan team is located 75 hops northeast of the outpost base, about two hundred light-years away. At this time, a second-level star castle named Jialan Heart has been established, and at the same time, it controls all surrounding areas. 44 galaxies.

It is worth mentioning that the location chosen by the outpost is in a star field where the nebula is weak. Although it will still be affected by the nebula here, the star gate cannot be used, and some low-level jump engines still cannot jump, but the fourth- and fifth-level jump engines will not be affected.

From the outpost to the star field controlled by the Jialan team, except for the occasional pirate wild monsters and abnormalities, there are no wild civilization forces. The destroyer jumped all the way without interruption, and it took about five days to enter the area controlled by the Jialan team.

Li Qing had the pass given by Yu Yuefei, and all the patrol fleets that he occasionally encountered along the way were allowed to pass until he came to the wormhole on the edge of the nearest galaxy in the Jialan galaxy, and passed the inspection of a base guard at an outpost on the edge of the wormhole to get permission. , the warship plunged into the wormhole and disappeared.

After coming out of the wormhole, a stellar flare erupted not far ahead, and a dazzling ion plume spewed out, reflecting the brightness inside the flagship to rise sharply.

Li Qing was surprised to find that the exit of this wormhole is not usually at the edge of the galaxy, but appears in the center of the star system, and the distance from the star is estimated to be less than one astronomical unit.

At this time, an unfamiliar communication came in, and it opened to reveal a beautiful woman in a well-fitting uniform, smiling and saying:

"Welcome to your first visit to Jialan's Heart. I am the dispatcher of Jialan's Heart, with job number A009. According to your passcode level, you can freely go to any non-military restricted area in this galaxy."

At the same time, Li Qing received a document sent by the dispatcher and confirmed the download, but it turned out to be a map of the interior of the Jialan Heart galaxy, which detailed the internal situation of the galaxy and the interior of the Jialan Heart Star Fortress. base case, with communications from several of the team's diplomats or dispatchers. "

"If you need, you can contact any of them at any time, we will serve you wholeheartedly."

The woman smiled, and her voice was simple and clear.

Li Qing nodded:

"I will contact you if necessary."

"Have a nice trip!"

After saying this, the other party disconnected.

“Service looks good!”

Li Qing sighed in admiration, and controlled the destroyer to fly in the direction of Star Fort. At the same time, he contacted Yu Yuefei and sent her a message.

Half an hour later, inside the Star Castle, the living room.

"Welcome Your Excellency Li Qing to join Jialan!"

Yu Yuefei stretched out her hand with a smile on her face, and Li Qing stretched out her hand to hold it. The first feeling was softness, and the second feeling was the surging spiritual energy on her body.

"What a powerful psionic talent!"

Li Qing was slightly taken aback.

You must know that he continuously extracts the energy of the virtual environment through the positioning of the universe in the palm of his hand, and can increase the strength of one unit of spiritual energy every day. Up to now, he has accumulated more than 400 units of spiritual energy.

He can cheat to improve, but others can't do that. If you want to improve your psychic power, you can only look at your talent, and use rare psychic secrets to train and improve. Generally speaking, the speed is extremely slow, and a little increase in a month is almost good.

Yu Yuefei was about the same age as him but possessed a stronger spiritual strength than himself. This talent surprised him.

But what he didn't know was that while he was surprised, Yu Yuefei was also very surprised.

She is well aware of the difficulty for psykers to increase the strength of their psychic power. After all, there are already five psykers in the team. At the same age, no one who has ever seen psykers of the same age can match her, and even many of them are younger than Few of my psykers in the past five years can match me.

She thought that no one could compare to herself when using cheating methods to quickly increase her spiritual power, but she didn't expect to meet one now.

Although the strength of psychic power was a little weaker than her own, the gap was not that big, which meant that Li Qing's psychic talent was very, very powerful. When she looked at Li Qing, a brilliance lit up in her eyes, which was fleeting.

At this moment, Li Qing suddenly raised his head to look at her delicate face, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

For a moment just now, he seemed to feel some prying eyes, but when he came back to his senses, he couldn't feel anything.

I wanted to explore it, but soon realized that it was not appropriate.

A total of 16 members of the Jialan team with original shares either attended the scene in person, or witnessed on behalf of them, and witnessed Li Qing joining the Jialan team and becoming one of the core members of the team.

No one has any objection to the fact that psykers own 0.5% of the original shares. After all, the team has already taken in several psykers before, and they all got 0.5% of the shares.

But when the dreadnought blueprint was exchanged for 2% of the equity proposal, suddenly there was a light cough, and a man sitting next to him raised his hand and stood up, saying:

"I think there is something wrong with this mention."

Li Qing turned his head to look at the man who spoke, but his gaze was immediately attracted by an extremely handsome man with silver hair all over his head.

Not only did the light cough just now seem to be from him, but this man has silver silky hair that is completely composed of psychic energy, which shows that this man is not only a psychic, but also a psychic with special talents .

As if sensing his gaze, the man turned his gaze and nodded slightly.

He also nodded with a smile, when the opposing man continued:

"Dreadnoughts are indeed very rare, and I know how important they are to our team at this stage. I have no objection to inviting His Excellency Li Qing to invest in Dreadnoughts. I just think that this share is a little too much, and 1% is reasonable. .”

As soon as the voice fell, someone immediately echoed:

"I think Brother Lu is right. Although the fearless flagship is rare, it is not worth getting 2% of the original shares."

People echoed one after another, causing Li Qing to frown slightly. He could clearly feel that everyone's eyes were on him, looking at his answer.

Looking at Yu Yuefei again, she smiled and didn't speak, but a voice appeared in his ears out of thin air:

"Sorry, I didn't expect them to object, don't worry, nothing will happen."

Li Qing's eyes moved slightly, his thoughts turned quickly, he bowed his hands to the opposing man and asked:

"I don't know your surname!"

The man proudly:

"Lu Yi, the direct descendant of the Tianhe Lu family!"

Li Qing raised his eyebrows and asked:

"I wonder how many original shares you own?"

Lu Yi smiled and said:

"Our two brothers each get 1.5%."

"Oh, so you think I surpass you too much, don't you?"

"You think too much. This is the general meeting of shareholders. We are discussing the facts."

Li Qing said with a smile:

"I'm just talking about the matter. If you think I've got too much 2% of the shares, you can also get a blueprint for the Dreadnought flagship. Then we can each get 1%."

"you"

Lu Yi pointed at him and choked, unable to answer.

Li Qing looked at the others and clapped his hands in a circle:

"Actually, how many shares I can get is not up to me. If it wasn't for the commander-in-chief's invitation, I was planning to investigate other large teams in the outpost base. If you think my 2% shares are too much, forget it. I'm now Just leave, you can buy shares in another team.”

At this moment, Yu Yuefei clapped her hands lightly to smooth things over:

"Everyone is on their own. This time it's my fault. I didn't discuss it with everyone in advance. In this way, as a compromise, Li Qing still takes 2% of the shares with the blueprint of the fearless flagship, but I personally take out 1% of the original shares. 2% of the original shares and 1% of the team will be handed over to His Excellency Li Qing, what do you think?"

"How can this work?"

Immediately someone objected:

"This kind of operation is prone to chaos in the future, and it is the team's business. How can the headquarters give you the 1% of the shares?"

"but."

At this time, the handsome man with silver hair stood up, and suddenly it seemed that a spring breeze was blowing towards his face, and people couldn't help but focus on him. He said to Yu Yuefei with tenderness in his eyes:

"According to what you said, His Excellency Li Qing joined the team as a psyker and the Dreadnought, and received a total of 2.5% of the team's original shares."

As soon as he spoke, the others fell silent.

Yu Yuefei smiled and nodded:

"Thank you Brother Ye."

"You're welcome."

"That's the decision. From now on, Brother Li Qing will be a member of our team and will enjoy all team benefits, and

At the end of the meeting, everyone came forward to shake hands with Li Qing and exchange contact information, as if the argument just now had never happened.

This is the elite education of the aristocrats. When it is about their own interests, they can fight to the death, but after the event, or after the dust settles, the previous debates and struggles seem to have never happened.

The same is true for Li Qing, talking to them with a smile on his face as if the quarrel when they prevented him from getting more shares had never happened.

At the same time, he also knew that the silver-haired man with slightly stronger psychic power than himself was actually a direct descendant of Nantian Ye's family——Ye Xiao.

Ye Shi of Nantian, one of the lords of the Fourteen Star Seas of the United Human Empire, the top family of the Human Empire, came here as a direct descendant to join a team, obviously for Yu Yuefei.

Coming out of the Star Fort, Li Qing let out a sigh of relief.

In less than an hour, he had a little understanding of the decision-making level of the Jialan team created by Yu Yuefei.

There are a total of 16 shareholders, and now he is added to 17, ranking sixth with 2.5% of the shares.

The reason why they prevented him from getting more shares was actually very simple, they simply didn't want someone to appear ahead of them suddenly.

But understanding is understanding, and my heart is still unhappy.

The internal factions are mixed, most of them are nobles with a lot of heart, and most of them are full of arrogance and difficult to discipline.

For a while, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong to choose Jialan's team.

Joined the Jialan team and became one of the core members. According to the routine regulations, Li Qing got the establishment of a fleet of the Jialan team.

For a simple establishment, the team will neither provide him with funds nor personnel, let alone warships. All the core members of the team have the power, and it is up to you whether you can do it.

It is worth mentioning that although the dreadnought was exchanged for 2% of the original shares of the team, the blueprint of the dreadnought has been handed over after signing the contract, but there is a special note when signing the contract. After the dreadnought is built, He holds third command of the Dreadnought flagship.

It means that when the team has no mission and the commander-in-chief Yu Yuefei is not in use, he can command the Dreadnought flagship to be temporarily incorporated into his fleet to serve him.

The premise is that you can't go too far, and you can't perform tasks that are too risky.

Joining Jialan at the same time, Li Qing immediately received a series of benefits that only the core of the team can have.

The first one is information and intelligence sharing. He can immediately obtain all the information and accumulated intelligence collected by the entire team.

Second, the team's network sharing, including Yu Yuefei's relationship network established in Jinmen and the outpost base, of course, these are not compensation, they need to pay a price in exchange, but compared to others, they don't even have a threshold. much.

The third is the basic benefits of the core team members, including various priorities, such as jumping in the queue to order warships, and reporting damage up to 25%.
