Chapter 65: The cannon fodder ship is in place
Seeing the port of Seguis from the exterior simulation of the holographic screen, Pan Wen sighed, he still had two and a half days to go to the MR251 system with the pirates that Karida had contacted, and he would have to be busy for the rest of the time.
Before docking, the assistant team and Scardragon were contacted, and all crew members were informed to stay on board for rest. After entering the port, the counting of the spoils of war was handed over to the financial representatives, and he took the three security sisters to meet with Scardragon.
"Master Pan, you are really good, just now the port broadcast a radio saying that you alone knocked out a squadron of warships of the Federation."
If Pan Wen hadn't investigated Scardragon, it would have been easy to be deceived by his flattering face, and he would have been a big sum.
"Heh, I also want to brag with you for a while, but I have a very tight time for the next two days, so let's get straight to the point."
Scardragon listened to Pan Wen's tone very seriously, and made himself more serious: "No problem, you say." ”
"First of all, I am short of money now, and after the inventory of the fragmented 'goods' this time, I hope you can pay directly at ninety percent of the usual price."
"Good!"
Barely waiting for Pan Wen to finish spitting out his syllables, Scardragon had already agreed.
In Scardragon's eyes, what Pan Wen said was simply money from the sky! He usually only helps to sell the profit of 10%, but now it is just a one-time payment of goods can be doubled, why not.
If other pirates even had the same sales agreement to come to him, he might have to wait to see the manifest, but after two months of cooperation with Pan Wen, he knew quite well in his heart that the evil spirits in front of him who almost didn't stop the harbor never hit civilian ships, and the loot they got back was all military products, and there was almost nothing that could not be sold! What's more, there was a radio notice of a major event at the port just now, and what the "cargo" was, it was completely lice on the head of a bald donkey.
He didn't want to take advantage of the other party's lack of money to rob and ask for more profits, he is probably not half as good at fighting as the surname Pan, but he understands business very well. As long as it is a long-term partner, it is impossible to go on according to the contract in stone, and it is always necessary to occasionally give each other some convenience to cooperate longer.
"Very well, thank you in advance."
With the funds secured, Pan Wen finally had an expression on his face, and beckoned Scardragon and several of his assistants to the dock rest area to sit down and talk over drinks.
"The second thing is, I hope Boss Scardragon can use your connections to do me a favor. This time I captured two medium frigates, a corvette and two heavy patrol ships, which are now parked at docks 33 to 36, waiting for the payment to be unlocked by the Security Service. ”
Scardragon was shocked by this news, he only knew that Pan Wen had killed a squadron, but he didn't know that he could capture a quarter of the other man's fleet under a weak situation!
Pan Wen didn't sell it either, took a sip of a drink and continued: "I want you to help me with the pre-sale, the dock access is open to you, and you are allowed to see the ship." The selling price is only 60% of the market price, and most of it is yours, but you have to sell it before tomorrow night. ”
"In such a hurry?"
"If you're not in a hurry, how can you sell it at a low price."
Scarsaurus didn't take a sip, and looked down in thought.
Of course, he is not thinking about whether to sell or not, the warships in service have buyers anyway, but in such a hurry, how much can he earn? Would you like to give another port foreman a cup of soup?
The market price of two medium and one light frigate and two heavy patrol ships in the federal service should be around 45,000 star coins on weekdays, and only about 27,000 star coins are left for the sixth achievement, and it is not a problem for him to earn 10,000 star coins for a little more than two days, but it is a little difficult to barely have thirty hours.
Scardragon frowned, thinking about his customers, to see if anyone might be able to pay for the boat immediately.
It took him a few minutes to know that he still had to divide the profits and sell out the two boats before they could be sold out within the time limit.
"I agreed to this, and Master Pan will definitely get the money before the early morning of the day after tomorrow."
"It is worthy of a scar dragon, it is really worthy of the word 'dragon', and it has courage." The sedan chair carries people, Scar Long can sell personal favors, and Pan Wen doesn't care about saying two good words.
"Master Pan won the award, but I am a little more familiar with this business than you 'running business'."
"The last one is not a big deal, you see that my Hammer's outer armor is really a little injured, and there is a thruster problem in the main thruster group, I have two days, and all the crew members on the ship can help with repairs, I hope you will try to help me repair it."
Unlike the earlier repairs of the Scalpel, the Heavy Hammer was hit a lot, but almost all of them were absorbed by the outer armor, and the only thing that went wrong was two secondary guns and a thruster, without any internal structural damage, and the main project was to replace the armor, which was the simpler of all the maintenance work.
As for the scalpel, Pan Wenti didn't mention it, the two split ships of the scalpel were destroyed, and only one main body remained. The range of the main guns is still shorter than that of ordinary frigates, and he estimates that the crew of the scalpel will be sold after changing the whole ship to another ship. But he didn't want the medium-sized frigate that had just been captured, although that model was obviously stronger than the Scalpel in terms of concealment and reconnaissance capabilities, but the long-range attack ability was a bit average, and the Scalpel at least had a large-angle main gun mount with an additional shield.
Scardragon seemed to be a little embarrassed, hesitated for a moment and asked: "Master Pan, let's be honest, 241 has been a bit chaotic recently, and I can't transfer all of them to you for a while, and the anti-radar coated armor plate on the Heavy Hammer is not enough, I can't guarantee that it can be done in two days." ”
"It doesn't matter, the two jammed secondary guns and thrusters are given priority, and we will use the segmented contract for the maintenance contract, and we will give as much as we do."
"That's fine."
Pan Wen exhaled, smiled and said to Scar Dragon, "Boss Scar Dragon, I accept your love today." If things are done well this time, maybe I can help you find a good location in another galaxy to become a shipyard, and if you can get a reliable ship, the business will not be too bad. ”
"Is there such a good thing?"
"I don't know what will happen for the time being, and you don't have to hope too much, but it should be right to prepare some money and supplies, 241 may become more and more chaotic, and it will not be wasted."
Pan Wen had asked Scardragon earlier if he had any intention of becoming a shipyard, and at that time Scardragon just had an idea, because Segeis did not have a good location and had not put it into action. He said it this time to let Scardragon prepare the drawings, basic equipment, etc. as soon as possible, once the 251 side completes the ground base and orbital station and starts to mine out, it will definitely need a powerful ship support system.
The shipyard seems to be very high-tech to make civilian and war ships used in space. In fact, it is not difficult for Scardragon to do this, he doesn't need to build his own ship when he starts, as long as he can build the hull frame and put the purchased equipment, armor and the like in place one by one, and now many shipyards in Saigeis do this, which is also one of the reasons why Pan Wen has been reluctant to buy ships in shipyards.
"Oh, then I'll wait for your good news." Scardragon said politely, disapproving, but he also felt that it was right to hoard some supplies, and the establishment of a permanent starbase in MR241 by Segois was too stimulating for other aspects, and it seemed that it was certain that it would become more and more chaotic.
After negotiating things with Scar, the agreement of intent to be signed was signed, and after saying hello, Pan Wen returned to the captain's room on the ship and took a break for two hours.
By the time he got off the ship again, the loot count had been completed, and Scardragon was waiting to pay.
The wreckage of seven frigates and ten heavy patrol ships, although the Fat Dun was still not fully recovered, and three main guns were damaged, but the existence of Seiko-grade equipment still allowed Pan Wen to get a huge sum of money from Scardragon - 26,000 Star Coins!
When I got the money, the first thing I did was to take the three sisters of the security team Elsa to the Security Bureau, and pay all the money for the harmless transformation of the ship, and wait for the experts of the Security Bureau to unblock the various systems before the ship can really start to sell.
The next stop is the Black Room of the Service Center.
After a series of formalities, he followed the green line to the black room again, this time only a glowing female image with electronic sound all the time was there.
After retrieving the design drawings of the strange corvettes stored a few days ago, Pan Wen asked: "When can I get the ship when I buy it now?" ”
"For 120 hours, you can use the expedited service for an additional 10% fee, the shipyard will complete the fabrication within 30 hours, and the fabrication system can build up to five ships at the same time."
So fast! Other shipyards calculate the time of the frigate by the week, but here it is actually an hour, which is worthy of the black technology in the black room!
"At which shipyard did you pick up the ship?"
"Segeis is built by the One Star Heavy Factory, and the local boat can be delivered to the designated dock for free."
…… A good factory name, there will be normal customers to do business?
The name is no longer commented on, the situation is far beyond Pan Wen's expectations, and if a new frigate can be added before the voyage, he is not worried that in a few days someone will accuse him of falsely reporting the fleet's combat strength due to the battle damage of the scalpel.
Let's start with two!
For an additional 10% rush fee, two corvettes equipped with the Medium Ship Shield and its matching engine system are only 17,600 Star Coins. Pan Wen's next stop, of course, was to recruit the crew and two captains needed to get them up and running.
The so-called good horse with a good saddle, a slightly cheap cannon fodder frigate is naturally not a good horse. Originally, he wanted to give the entire crew of the two ships to the public, but on the way to move to the interactive center, Pan Wen thought about it again, and he still had to match all the elites. The mid-to-long-range hit rate in the battle is as low as ten or twenty percent, and the impact of the entire battle on the battle situation is not small. If you look at a certain squadron that was killed by his fleet this time, you can understand that if the opponent's hit rate is the same as that of the Heavy Hammer, with their degree of persistence, the Heavy Hammer will not be a heavy cripple if it does not disintegrate, and it will definitely not be like now, and it will be able to show off its strength outside with a few pieces of armor and a thruster.
As soon as the front foot arrived at the interactive center, Pan Wen's personal computer kept receiving communication requests.
They were all colleagues who would act together in two days, including Kareda, the nominal leader.
The reaction was too slow, and since there was a radio announcement, it was a real result that the Security Service had confirmed to be a motivating prospect for other pirates. Can't cheat and wait a few hours to come to chat, congratulations and the like, it's really suspicious that there is something going on behind it, shouldn't it be a joint to sell him, so many pirate heads can hire an army to hire killers together, and they need to go outside to solve it?
