Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

The only response she got was still a long silence, which made it impossible for September to liven up the atmosphere.

"Okay, Mr. Mingyuan."

Jiu Yue was also infected by the negative atmosphere and stroked Duan Mingyuan's forehead with pity. She recognized Carloya's identity as a top investor.

Perhaps, this was the expert’s sense of smell – he terminated the assessment on the first day after discovering the super unlucky guy, and did not even meet him again, and fled directly back to the Chamber of Commerce’s flagship overnight.

Mr. Ming Yuan has achieved a new achievement.

"Now, even the best investment experts in the universe have been scared away by you."

Small Theater No. 13:

Thursday, afternoon.

September returned to the mountains after a long absence. When the little foxes in the mountains heard that she was back, they all came forward to watch.

Duan Mingyuan was followed by the little foxes all the way. At first they just looked at him from a distance, but later they ran to their side and walked side by side with them.

There are two colors of foxes in the mountains, red is more common, and white is a rare species.

Jiu Yue explained that the white ones were the descendants of fox fairies. It was not difficult to see that she was very popular with the foxes. She was holding a coquettish little white fox in her arms and two little foxes that looked like they had just been born on her ankles.

Although the little foxes showed curiosity about him, they all kept a distance of more than half a meter from him.

This feeling is very wonderful, quite like visiting my father-in-law's house to pay New Year's greetings.

It’s just that my father-in-law and mother-in-law are not in the mountains at the moment. They are enjoying their sweet space honeymoon. Only an elderly fox greets them in the mountains.

It is much larger than an ordinary fox, and looks very majestic when surrounded by a group of foxes.

This is the elder of the tribe.

"Humph, you still know how to come back."

The elder snorted coldly. He had not allowed Jiu Yue to go down the mountain, but this girl had sneaked away.

“The elders are difficult to deal with.”

Jiu Yue stood on tiptoe and whispered in Duan Mingyuan's ear. In her memory, the elder always looked bitter and resentful, and it seemed that he had never been happy.

At this moment, they were faced with their first legendary mission since returning to their mother's home.

——Make serious and difficult elders smile.

"Help me, Mr. Mingyuan!"

Chapter 239 Ship repair, Qi refining period!

"How did you do it?"

The next morning, what entered the house was not only the first ray of morning light, but also an uninvited crow.

The moment his eyes met Duan Mingyuan's, Crow opened his mouth and asked.

The evaluation time is always three days, but Galoya did not even stay in the academy for a single day and left at night. His anxious attitude did not seem like he was threatened, but more like he was avoiding the plague god.

This did not match his perception of a chamber of commerce representative.

"Who knows?"

Duan Mingyuan woke up, but he looked listless.

The cruel reality made him realize that the problem was not in his method of making money, but in his luck. His luck was so bad that even Ruihu and the world's top investment experts could not save him. This could be described as inhumane.

But Jiuyue was secretly happy. He hummed a little tune early in the morning, wagged his tail, and went briskly to the back mountain to prepare for lessons.

In her opinion, it was not a bad thing that Mr. Mingyuan had extremely bad luck with money.

Her fortune is very good, so good that she can even pick up money when she goes out. Jiu Yue has never lacked money since the day she left home. Even if she does not need to make money specifically, money will come to her in various ways whenever she needs it.

According to what is said in emotional books, a couple needs to complement each other in many areas.

As a result, Mr. Mingyuan, whose financial luck was extremely bad, became even more dependent on her.

"What's wrong with you?"

Crow felt that Duan Mingyuan's condition was also very abnormal. He felt that if this was a game, he would be able to see a negative status of "weak" above Duan Mingyuan's head.

If we combine these two abnormal phenomena together...

"Oh my God, did you do something with that Chamber of Commerce representative? I heard that Chamber of Commerce representatives are very happy. That woman might have killed hundreds of people long ago. The little fox next to you is pretty good. Why bother to provoke such a woman? You will definitely not be able to beat her."

The more Crow looked at Duan Mingyuan, the more he looked like someone whose emotions had been toyed with by a bad woman.

"What are you talking about again?"

Duan Mingyuan looked at the crow with suspicion, for he had heard from the grapevine that the chat room software that carried his dreams of getting rich and achieving success was banned due to the appearance of an unknown pervert.

The thinking of this crow is consistent with its identity as a pervert.

Come to think of it, he was also the one who founded the Pervert Club.

"Isn't it?"

"It's much worse than that."

Duan Mingyuan still couldn't muster up the will to fight, "I'm destined not to make much money in this life."

If he had known that he would never be rich in this life, he should not have wasted his time studying and learning about success. When he was studying, he should have worked for three days and rested for two days. Why should he work so hard?

Looking back now, he had worked diligently in his position for four years but had never been given the opportunity for a promotion or a pay rise, which was most likely due to his tendency to spend money lavishly.

He neither had a good time nor made a lot of money. To use the terminology from the books he had read, this was maximizing losses.

"I see. That's good."

The crow breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he didn't care whether Duan Mingyuan could make a lot of money. What he was worried about was that if Duan Mingyuan and the Shan tribe got together and turned against each other, it would result in a situation where the Chamber of Commerce and the company would merge and have a top thug. In this case, there would be no one or force in the universe that could stop the Shan tribe.

Fortunately, Duan Mingyuan is not a "strong alliance" advocate.

"In order to divert the attention of the Chamber of Commerce, I have also exposed my identity. I can no longer stay in the academy."

Crow said.

If he fell into the hands of the Chamber of Commerce, he would probably experience the most terrible torture in the universe. "Let me make a long story short. The Chamber of Commerce representative should have given you something before leaving, right? For example, a navigation beacon."

"Give it."

"Show it to me."

Although he was a little confused, Duan Mingyuan still called up the small program sent by Carloya.

Duan Mingyuan had never used this kind of small program before, and due to his depressed mood, he had no time to study it.

Crow stood on the phone and fiddled with it with his claws. Then he said with a sense of relief, "Fortunately, they didn't tamper with the signpost. It seems that the Chamber of Commerce does not regard Blue Star as an enemy for the time being."

To use the words in the game, they are...safe for now.

At least we won't find a half-dead body on the flagship during the voyage to the summit and then enter the voting discussion stage.

"I feel bad."

Duan Mingyuan's eyes became sharp, "You scratched my phone screen."

The crow's claws were sharp and directly scratched a clear scratch on Duan Mingyuan's mobile phone.

This kind of minor friction was not a problem for him and could be repaired in a moment, but he always felt that the crow's words were not very pleasant to the ear, and now it was committing the crime of destroying other people's property.

He didn't understand Jiu Yue before, but now Duan Mingyuan realized that there was a reason why humans liked to eat yakitori.

“…I’ll pay!”

Feeling Duan Mingyuan's unfriendly gaze, Crow said.

He knows that what he says may not be pleasant to hear, and sometimes he acts on his own, so he always acts alone.

"The point I want to make is that the beacons of some civilizations whose responses did not satisfy the Chamber of Commerce have been tampered with. The beacons will lead them into danger. Interstellar navigation depends entirely on the guidance of beacons."

“If the signposts are so important, why should the Chamber of Commerce provide them to the summit’s board of directors?”

"Because many member states do not have the ability to travel between stars, the original check and balance at the summit was Universal Company, so they accepted the help of the Chamber of Commerce, a third party force. In fact, even the venue for each summit was provided by the Chamber of Commerce."

The summit is about checks and balances.

They believe that only by competing with each other among the three forces and avoiding any one power dominating can the interests of the majority be preserved.

At this point, the crow was suddenly stunned.

He raised his head and was silent for a long time before he asked tentatively, "Blue Star has the ability to travel independently in the stars, right?"

Although the extradited people were born on Blue Star, this generation of extradited people have basically never returned to their planet and know nothing about the development of Blue Star.

When he heard that Blue Star had shot down a company flagship, he subconsciously thought that Blue Star had already entered a star-level civilization.

There is no need for an outsider like him to interfere in the use of navigation beacons.

"Wait a minute, let me ask."

In front of Wu Yao, Duan Mingyuan picked up his phone, edited a text message and sent it to the third prince, asking him how the repair work on the flagship was going.

The Third Prince's life in the court seemed to be as leisurely as ever. Not long after the text message was sent, he received a response.

"Don't worry, things will get better with stability."

"What does it mean to be stable and improving?"

"If I use cultivation as an analogy, my ship repair should have reached the Qi Refining Stage."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 240 There is no ship in this universe that can carry me

The third prince has been busy during this period. He used all his connections and finally gathered a group of technicians who had some contact with flagships.

The company has very strict control over the flagship technology. There is no way to repair the firepower facilities on the flagship, so everyone has focused their attention on the flagship's engine. The third prince has set a small goal for everyone, and it will be considered a success as long as the engine can be started smoothly.

As the first ship repairman on Blue Star, the Third Prince also devoted himself to studying the techniques.

The so-called Qi Refining Period is to piece together the shattered flagship back to its original state. This project has consumed the efforts of countless people and invested a huge amount of money. Finally, yesterday evening, the Third Prince crossed the threshold of the Qi Refining Period and owned the first flagship in the history of Blue Star.

When Duan Mingyuan asked, the third prince sent a photo of the flagship.

"Are you sure this is the flagship?"

After observing the third prince's practice results, Duan Mingyuan couldn't help but ask questions.

In his impression, the company's flagship was full of oppression. When it appeared, the entire sky was covered by the flagship. At first glance, it really looked like the palace in the sky as described by the ancients. This is also the origin of the name "immortals" of the aliens. People in ancient times believed that only immortals had the ability to build buildings in the sky.

However, the Third Prince's flagship...

The size is not much different from that of flights at the airport, and the style is basically the same. Judging from the shape alone, it does not look like a means of transportation capable of long-term interstellar travel.

"It is a flagship, but as I said, it is a flagship of the Qi Refining Stage."

The third prince responded quickly.

The company's flagships are all at least in the Mahayana stage of cultivation, which is the result of thousands of years of accumulation. As a ship repairman in the Qi Refining stage, it is already remarkable for him to have a flagship of aircraft specifications.

The so-called Qi Refining Stage is when everything is at the most basic stage.

"Are you sure this thing can travel between stars?"

"It still needs to stand the test of time."

"Is there a control console for reading navigational beacons?"

"What is a navigation beacon?"

With just two sentences of conversation, Duan Mingyuan foresaw a future of dying in a foreign land. The face of the crow beside him turned completely black, and the deep darkness in its eyes was just like the color of its feathers.

"Are you here to make fun of me?"

He found it hard to believe that this was a conversation between someone who was about to become a director of the Sixteen Star Summit.

Judging from the situation, the company and the Chamber of Commerce don't need to make any trouble for Blue Star. These people will be the first to die in the plane crash.

Seeing that Duan Mingyuan had not responded yet, the third prince sent another message.

"I told you, don't worry, everything is under my control. There is still some time before the departure date, and by that day, everything will be safe. I am trying my best to cultivate to the foundation-building stage."
