One hundred and four chapters of puzzles

The streets of the Redstone base resemble the stands of a soccer field, with layers surrounding the base, and Sarah and Natsu follow these circular streets to exchange points to exchange money.

Here star coins are not in circulation and can only be exchanged for items, Xia Fei's biggest commodities at present are white dew and snake eye berries, these two fruits can replenish physical strength at any time in battle, and are very important for a warrior, Xia Fei always carries a crisper with him, which is filled with these two kinds of fruits.

"There are three stores with the best reputation in the base, the boss is not bad, and the price is fair, so I'll take you there." Sarah said.

Xia Fei's candy offensive has played a very good role, Sarah has now begun to put herself in Xia Fei's shoes, the original woman has a very high self-protection psychology, but once this line of defense is opened, it will present a completely different scenery.

Xia Fei thought for a moment, "I divide the fruits that need to be sold into three parts, and then sell them to these three stores separately, if the quantity sold at one time is too large, it will inevitably not be suspected." ”

Sarah nodded hurriedly, "Of course it's good to do this, be careful in everything here, your mind is becoming more and more like an authentic wilderness person now." ”

The price of such a thing as the Elven Heart is extremely high in the Human Alliance, but the price here is much lower, a snake's eye berry can be exchanged for ten yuan, and Bailu can also be exchanged for four yuan.

Xia Fei sold three hundred grains of the two kinds of fruits, each for four thousand two hundred yuan.

The interstellar smuggling industry is really profitable, Xia Fei estimated that although these elven hearts are all small pieces of loose pieces, if they really want to get the alliance, they can exchange at least seventy or eighty million star coins, and the total price of the fruits sold is only 12 million, and there is more than six times the profit in the middle.

Its practical foods with lower value can also be exchanged for Elven Hearts, and the exchange rate is surprisingly high, a few pieces of chocolate can be exchanged for a dollar, which is more cost-effective than using snake's eye berries.

But these foods Xia Fei has other uses, and Xia Fei needs a lot of food every day to replenish nutrients, and it will take some time for the Lunar Eclipse to repair work, these foods are an important strategic reserve for Xia Fei.

After exchanging the currency, Xia Fei and Sarah went to the maintenance factory at the bottom of the base, the only repair shop in the base is not small, with six berths and two maintenance workshops, and there are more than two dozen workers.

Xia Fei took a casual look in the factory and found that the equipment here was old and old, and many of the machines were produced hundreds of years ago and are still in use today.

"Sarah, how did you get here so long? I miss you. ”

"I'll treat you to a kebab tonight and two glasses of wine."

As soon as the workers saw Sarah, they gathered around her and joked with her, and Sarah punched and kicked the obsessed workers with a cold face.

"Get back to work," a middle-aged man in his fifties yelled at the workers in a loud voice, and the workers hurried back to their respective posts to do their own business, but their eyes were still sweeping over Sarah's full buttocks.

"Uncle Andy." Sarah said to the middle-aged man.

Andy nodded and led Xia Fei and Sarah into his office, and Sarah introduced Xia Fei to Andy, insisting that Xia Fei was Allen's distant nephew.

Taking the maintenance list handed by Xia Fei, Andy frowned heavily, "The things on the list are all high-end goods, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to find these accessories in the Wilderness Star Domain." ”

Xia Fei lit a cigarette and said, "Can you find some from other bases?" ”

"It's hard." Andy glanced at Xia Fei and said, "In the entire Wilderness Star Domain, my factory is already considered large, and many ships that other bases are not capable of repairing will also be sent here, I can help you ask, but you'd better not get your hopes up." ”

"If it's possible, I'd still like to fix it, but if it doesn't work, I'll find another way." Xia Fei said.

Andy put the maintenance list on the table, stood up and sent Xia Fei out of the door, "You also know that the communication interference in the star field is very strong, I need two days to look for these accessories in the whole star field, you can come back early the day after tomorrow morning to take a look." ”

Xia Fei nodded, handed him a bag containing five hundred yuan as a deposit, and walked back along the road from which Sarah came.

"Is Andy reliable?" Xia Fei asked, as long as he was an expert in maintenance, he could easily deduce from Xia Fei's maintenance list whether the Lunar Eclipse was a warship, and a precious naval version of Kitty Hawk could not guarantee that the other party would not see money.

"I heard the old man say that Andy fled here because he accidentally killed his wife's lover. He was able to start as a maintenance worker, and now he has one of the best factories in the whole star field, because he has a strict mouth and knows how to avoid enmity with others. Sarah said.

Sarah's words make a lot of sense, the long-term inhabitants of the Wilderness Star Domain rely on working for those pirates and thugs, none of these people are easy to get along with, and if you are not careful, you may lose your life at any time.

Xia Fei is just a stranger here, but who can guarantee that a stranger will be a good person? No one knew Xia Fei's details, which protected him.

On the other side of the street came a group of soldiers, dressed in khaki uniforms, crooked hats, and carrying laser guns on their shoulders.

The group was rampaging through the streets, a beggar with no legs was begging in the street, and when he saw these soldiers, he hurriedly crawled to the side with both hands, and one of the soldiers walked up and kicked him in the body, kicking him to the ground, "Old thing, can't you climb faster?"

Pedestrians on the street ducked, daring to be angry at these outrageous fellows.

The soldier was followed by a young man who was less than twenty years old, and this young man was handsome in appearance, and his face was very fair, but it was a pity that he had already been hollowed out by the wine at a young age, and he was slightly bent over, and his steps were a little vain when he walked.

Sarah pulled Xia Fei and hid in an alley next to the street.

"This is the Ning family's guards, when I was transporting slaves today, I heard that the Ning family's bodyguards were killed two more last night, and now they are looking for murderers everywhere, you are a stranger or it is better to hide from them." Sarah said a little nervously.

Xia Fei leaned against the dim corner, pointed at the white-skinned young man and asked, "Who is this?" ”

"Ning Dian, the old man of the Ning family has three sons, but when it comes to Ning Dian's generation, he is the only boy, so he is very arrogant, and the people in the redstone base are avoiding him." Sarah's voice trembled slightly, as if she was very disgusted with this Ning Gongzi.

......

Early the next morning, Xia Fei came to Andy's factory again as agreed.

"Why didn't Sarah come with you?" Andy asked.

"She's been helping people transport slaves for a while, and she'll be back at noon." Xia Fei said truthfully.

Andy nodded, took out the list from his desk and handed it to Xia Fei.

Xia Fei took the list and looked at it, only to see that each of the parts on it had been marked in detail, whether there was any stock in the star field of this kind of parts, where and if so, when it could be shipped, what was the price, etc., it was written very seriously, which shows that Andy has done a lot of work for this.

It's just that the most critical parts on the first four pages are still thirty-four missing, and these parts are related to the core performance of the Lunar Eclipse, without which the Lunar Eclipse would not have been able to fly out of this star field.

"Thank you" Xia Fei said with a smile, it was not Andy's fault that he couldn't find the parts, he had already worked hard enough for this, and Xia Fei had no reason to complain about him.

"What are you going to do now?" Andy asked.

"I'm going to go to the ancient battlefield to try my luck, if it really doesn't work, I'll buy an industrial ship and pull the ship to the territory of the Human Alliance for maintenance." Xia Fei said.

Andy shook his head, "Let's not mention going to the battlefield to salvage the shipwreck, and using the industrial ship to pull it to the territory of the Human Alliance is absolutely unacceptable." ”

"Oh, what's wrong?" Xia Fei asked curiously.

"The industrial ship itself is clumsy and slow, it takes at least two hours to adjust after each jump, and the longer the jump distance, the more time it takes to recharge, and the signal of the industrial ship is relatively large, so it is easy to be detected by those people."

"The natural environment of the Wilderness Star Domain is very harsh, electromagnetic storms, proton explosions are everywhere, how can a clumsy and fragile industrial ship avoid these crises that may occur at any time." Andy said.

The number of pirates in the Wilderness Star Domain is beyond imagination, many people work on weekdays, and once they have no job, they will change their clothes and go to the universe to rob, in the eyes of the residents of the Wilderness Star Field, part-time work and robbery are actually the same thing, both are the same job.

"Do you know why Sarah only goes out one morning a day and comes back?" Andy asked.

Xia Fei shook his head, he had never asked about Sarah's work, and Sarah hadn't mentioned it.

"That's because Sarah is only responsible for delivering the goods to the nearest safe point, and as for how to get out of this star field, that's the buyer's business. In the Wilderness, industrial ships are only used for transportation between safety points, and are never used for long-distance voyages. ”

"If you want to transport cargo over long distances, you need to use small frigates that are flexible and cannot be more than 100 light-years away at a distance, because a jump within 100 light-years takes the shortest recharge time and is least likely to be detected by long-range radar."

Xia Fei frowned, he knew that the moment the jump engine started, a large amount of energy would be released to create a temporary wormhole, and the closer the jump distance was, the more slight this energy release would be, and it would not be easy to be captured by the energy radar.

"Wouldn't that little jump take a lot of time?" Xia Fei asked.

Andy laughed, "This is also a way out of the question, no one dares to make a large jump here, even if you move carefully like this, there will be no more than three out of every ten ships that can pass through the Wilderness Star Field, so the price here is so expensive." ”

Xia Fei lowered his head and thought for a while, then said with a smile: "It seems that I have to go to the ancient battlefield to try my luck." ”
