Him and their stars.

Chapter 721

Yu Lian was thinking of finding a reason to assign this girl to polish and wax the outer armor, when Dr. Xie said, "The biggest problem now is indeed the material."

He added: "The ship is too worn out. If it wants to be completely repaired, it must be sent to a professional shipyard for overhaul. In our current state, we can withstand three to four jumps at most, which still ensures gravity. The well is stable on the premise. The crystal plate of the jump engine is damaged, and the energy pipeline is also leaking, so it must be replaced. However, these all require professional materials. In addition, the biggest trouble is the big hole in the main section of the ship. From the D12 area All the cabins in the E8 area were destroyed, and there were no signs of burning and melting in many breaches, it was more like being directly decomposed. I have never heard of any weapon that can cause this effect, unless it is in the laboratory middle……"

Before Dr. Xie was taken away by the looters, he was a ship designer of the Empire's Hand of Glory Design Bureau, and of course he was no stranger to weapons.

"According to your subordinates, it was blown up by a torpedo?"

"Yes, anti-matter explosives were used." Yu Lian did not hide it from him.

"Anti-matter technology can finally be used in actual combat!" Dr. Xie said with emotion, a trace of pride flashed across his face.Then he said: "The hull over there suffered almost structural damage, and it is very difficult to maintain it at present. I can temporarily fix it by strengthening the alloy sleeve, but this is only an emergency measure."

"Can you try throwing off the hull? The Marauder's battleship has this function, and this ship looks like it." Yu Lian asked.

The old man was slightly taken aback, but he didn't expect that he was an expert, so he explained that the predator's large warships did have this function.In other words, the large warships of many predators are built piece by piece. After a long time, the small ships can be expanded into giant ships, which is full of green-skinned wasteland style.However, the damaged part of the Scarlet Throne is part of the main structure, and a little bit more damage to the central axis.

"In short, I need not only professional ship materials, but also heavier equipment."

The old man didn't mention the damage to the armament, anyway, he didn't expect the ship to go out to fight for a long time anyway.

Agnes looked at Yu Lian triumphantly, thinking that even the experts say that, so you can't say that I cheated you, can you?

However, Yu Lian said: "This is indeed a problem. That's why I took everyone to take the risk to escape from the Abyss Nebula. Because supplies can be found here, but it is impossible in the empire."

Dr. Xie showed a puzzled look.

Agnes, on the other hand, had a helpless look of "here it is again, here it is again", and couldn't help looking at Feifei again for help.However, the latter pretended not to see it at all, and just said to Yu Lian: "The code you gave me was sent on the wide area communication channel a few days ago. But, will there really be a response?"

"Maybe, maybe not. We can't underestimate the shark's sense of smell when it catches the smell of blood. Of course, it is also possible to attract pirates. Anyway, here in the Abyss Nebula, there are more pirates than good people, but this is not a bad thing."

This kind of mystification is actually quite degrading.Fortunately, no one can shake Yu Lian's prestige on the ship at this time, so everyone can only accept it and go back to work.

Then, when the dilapidated Scarlet Throne wobbled to complete its fourth jump in the Abyss Nebula, and found the second beacon left by the Great Khan here, it also received the Unknown communication request.

If it was really a pirate, they would definitely touch it and attack it, and they would never send a communication in a decent manner.Everyone who had been on alert all the time breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, what appeared in everyone's holographic projection was a gray-brown alien with short silver-gray hair, a wide body, and a fat, round face with a naive look.Compared with the plump round face, a pair of obsidian-like watery eyes looked very small and festive.

This is a Torun, the most famous traveling merchant race in the galaxy, and also the main ethnic group of the famous Tos merchant group country.

The expression of the Torun people was a little stiff, and the naive smile always seemed to be squeezed out.However, when he saw that Yu Lian, a human being, was in line with him, his expression immediately relaxed. The smile was not only sincere but also kind, and it made people feel happy just looking at it.

"Oh? Oh. Oh! Hahaha, it's actually Colonel Yu Lian! It's really an honor for me!" The Torun man expressed his flattered expression appropriately, then rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly: "My lord His name is Duba, he belongs to the second-level salesman of the Toss Merchant Group, and also serves as the executive director and branch general manager of the Luopan Chamber of Commerce."

He subconsciously wanted to touch the business card, but then realized that he was in the communication, and immediately scratched his head embarrassedly and showed an awkward and honest laugh.Such a slightly clumsy insurance immediately made everyone feel good about it.

"In this abyss nebula, it is really an honor for me to meet the famous God's Chosen Champion! This, um, this, can I give you a piece of your autograph and a group photo later! This is the greatest request of Duba's life."

This chubby Torun businessman has the look of a star-struck fanboy.However, there were already knowledgeable friends present, who were shocked by the concept of "second-level salesman" and "compass chamber of commerce".

Yu Lian said with a smile: "You are too famous. It is my honor to get your response from your company and you in this lawless place outside the civilized circle. In a sense, you are actually my savior. what!"

"Oh my god, you really made this subordinate feel ashamed. If the headquarters and my colleagues know that this subordinate is so contemptuous, I will definitely die in the company!"

The two chatted politely like two mature social people for nearly two minutes, and then Yu Lian presented the list of items he needed.

"Oh, this is for repairing the ship?" Duba's salesman is indeed an expert. He just glanced at such a long list and saw the clues.

"Your boat... er, it's not small!"

Yu Lian was sure of the mouth shape of the other party. He probably wanted to say Dreadnought, but changed his words when he came to the mouth.

"Since this is the case, how about buying some more tools for self-defense? This nebula is not safe, and you always need to be careful. Although you are a great God's Chosen champion, some Xiaoxiao is just a clown in front of you, but if you don't It's not elegant to bump into the lady next to you." Mr. Duba looked at Feifei and Agnes next to him with a smile: "Oh, what a beautiful and noble lady, but the more beautiful you are, the more you should wear makeup. Order your beauty! This will not waste the charm bestowed by the spirit of the universe! Although I am looking for food in this remote star area, I will not miss the season's fashion of Yafenna and Elorie. There are also samples."

As he spoke, he sent an electronic document.

After obtaining Feifei's consent, Mr. Silverbeard next to him opened it casually, and his eyes straightened immediately.

Yu Lian has already made a gesture of surrender: "You are really good, but I am just an ordinary active military officer, and I am a lowly social tool with a salary. I also have to consider my spending power."

"Hahaha, Your Excellency is really funny! Then, in the next three days at most, I will personally bring the goods and meet with you..." Duba, the merchant of Torun, said this and rubbed his hands in embarrassment: "Well, wait a minute There must be a signature and a group photo. Otherwise, I will definitely not come."

Yu Lian laughed loudly: "I will personally cook hot pot to entertain you. That is the specialty of our hometown. We can talk about our business and the future of the galaxy while eating. By the way, the boat is the best Bigger, the kind that transports cattle would be better."

Mr. Duba took a deep look at Yu Lian, laughed heartily and honestly, and turned off the communication.

"It turns out that the code you asked me to send out before is the wide-area call signal of the Toss Merchant Group!"

"Yes, the salesmen of the Toss Merchant Group claim to be sure to respond to letters and fulfill their missions!" Of course, that code is actually a so-called VIP code, which changes every once in a while. Not ordinary people.The salesman of Yitos Merchant Group can sell the chastity belt to the succubus, as long as they can receive it, they will definitely respond.

"However, when did Yu'er know this call code? It can't be from Yani again?"

"Well, of course not... It's from my dear friend No. [-], brother Belmont of the Krell family." Yu Lianli said as a matter of course: "I gave him the sailboat made at the God of War Festival." .He gave me back a bunch of useful little information, including this.”

This is actually the truth.Even if Feifei really went to see Krell, she would get an affirmative answer.

Of course, even if there was no such thing, Yu Lian knew how to contact the people from the Toss Merchant Group.But that's not the point.

The so-called Toss Business Group Country is also one of the members of the Galactic Civilization Council, and its full name is the Toss Business Group Consortium.Speaking of a country, it would be better to say that it is a consortium of enterprises established by the Torun people, and the council directly composed of the helmsmen of the major business groups serves as the highest governing body of the country.

As for the kind-hearted Torun people, perhaps there is no race in this universe that is more suitable for doing business than them.Relying on their looks that they don't have any evil intentions, although their bodies are round and stocky, they are very strong. They are naturally good at calculating accounts, and at the same time, they are also naturally obsessed with the infinity of the starry sky.Rather than staying on a down-to-earth planet, I would rather live on a boat.Therefore, in the early days of the Galactic Age of Discovery, the traces of the Torun people had spread to the entire galaxy.

According to the setting of a certain game, this group probably has the attributes of "home from all over the world" and "people of the void".

Although the people of Torun seem to be not aggressive at all, they are actually not weak in technology, and they are not lacking in blood. Of course, they will not be reduced to the point of becoming a vassal.However, they prefer to see the accumulation of wealth over exploration, war and conquest.

As a result, the commercial fleet groups they established quickly replaced the original state power, and began to perform state duties while doing business.

This is the origin of the so-called Toss business group consortium.

Their national composition is even more extreme than that of the Iron Army Federation. They don't even have their own country, but are made up of more than a hundred super-large fleets, drifting in the vast sea of ​​stars.Compared to predators, maybe they are more like the so-called interstellar nomads?

It's just that people don't plunder, they just do business.

As for the original home planet of the Torun people, they even sold that planet and the land under the early days of the Great Discovery Age to the Alliance in exchange for military protection, shipping rights, and tariff relief.

Military protection is very important. Although the corporate mercenaries of the Toss Merchant Group are also quite capable, the number is really not much.

Of course, shipping is also very important. After all, they are traveling merchants, and they need to travel around the universe to communicate with each other.

As for tariff relief, anyone who does transnational business understands how important it is.Anyway, the enterprises of the business group enjoy the same treatment as the alliance enterprises.

The Toss Merchant Group is an enlightened "government system". After all, it is essentially a traveling merchant doing cross-border trade, so why not be enlightened?Nature is very happy to accept immigrants.Anyone who is willing to accept their ideas, or an official employee who has worked in a business group for several years, can apply for their nationality.Now, this is already a multi-ethnic country where Torun people only account for [-]% of the total population.

If class oppression is thrown away, this can even be regarded as the first political system in the entire galaxy to achieve racial equality.

All in all, as long as you can do business, as long as you can bring profits to these space travel merchants, the Toss Merchant Group will treat you as their half-brother.

Finally, the so-called second-level salesman sounds very inconspicuous, but he is the general manager of the branch in charge of all businesses in the entire star area.If transferred back to the headquarters, it is very likely to enter the board of directors.

As for the Compass Chamber of Commerce, it is the most important interstellar trade giant under the Toss Merchant Group.

Of course, this company is listed on the alliance, and there are many alliance chaebol shares.Considering the close relationship between the Toss Merchant Group and the Alliance, this is also very reasonable.

"I really didn't expect that the Toss Merchant Group actually has business in the Abyss Nebula?" Even the well-informed Karnovic and Silverbeard felt that they had gained a lot of knowledge today.

They even set up a branch in the "City Outside the Law" rebuilt from the ancient space city.Yu Lian thought.I worked in that company for three months in my previous life.

"I thought Yu'er would take us directly to the legendary black (meow) road city for supplies and repairs." Feifei laughed.

"That's just an urban legend in the universe. And I'm not a pirate, so how can I know the way?" Yu Lian was serious, as if an active military officer like me, who was upright and had a breeze in his sleeves, would not be fooled by urban legends, and he didn't know anything black ( Meow).

"It's fine if there is business, but can they even sell this thing?" Mr. Silverbeard opened a file, and directly called out an 8-pack turbo laser group.

"This is the Corpse Bird MK3! It has been finalized and put into production by the Alliance for less than a year!" The old mercenary smiled wryly.

Yu Lian also knew that this was a very good close-in artillery weapon, which was more advanced than any weapon on this Predator dreadnought.

"The Toss Merchant Group is a small... ally of the alliance. They have developed many new technologies together. Isn't it reasonable to get this kind of weapon?"

Feifei laughed and said, "I remember, the group of Karda goblins you captured in Xinyumen last time were also employees of the Compass Chamber of Commerce."

yes?I have already forgotten.The other side should also forget. Yu Lian said: "Anyway, let's wait for the all-powerful Toss merchant to appear and help us solve everything."Look, I said it, as long as the manpower is solved, everything will be solved. "

"Yes! And how to pay." Agnes raised her hand.

Yu Lian couldn't help but glanced at the other party with caring eyes for the mentally retarded, thinking that this girl is really one-sided!
"I, did I say something wrong? This is indeed the case!" Agnes felt a little guilty when Yu Lian saw her, her voice suddenly became much quieter, but she still insisted on expressing her opinion.

"Since you will do business here, things must be much more expensive than outside, right?"

"Agnes." Feifei said.

"exist!"

"Take two people and fill the bullet hole on the outer layer of A8."

"Oh……"
