Hanging up the communication, Li Qing immediately controlled the battleship to turn around, spent three million star yuan again, and lined up again to return to Jinmen.

I didn't expect that the merchants from the transit base to the outpost would be so profitable, and there would be as much as forty percent of the profits.

Of course, the outpost is mainly built by the Jinmen Yu clan, and Yu Yuefei can get forty percent of the profit by relying on the relationship between the same clan, and outsiders should not be able to get it, but no matter how little, they can get about thirty percent.

A simple 30% profit is nothing, but if you can get 30% in a large transaction, then the profit is very considerable.

Thirty percent of 10,000 is two different things from thirty percent of 100 million, and thirty percent of one trillion is another world.

He can't scrape together a trillion capital now, but he can make up tens of billions of capital to take a trip, and one trip is a profit of three billion, which is quite profitable.

He only has about two billion funds left now, but he is ready to trade all the materials he bought before for the construction of warships, which are also needed there, and they are one of the most demanded materials.

Among them, there are 6 billion light materials for frigates, 4.5 billion light materials for destroyers, and 1.2 billion materials for the two cruisers.

In addition, the transport ships, industrial ships, large mining ships, etc. he bought can actually be traded, as long as he brings them safely, he will receive them.

In this way, the capital is not only 10 billion, but more than 30 billion, and you can earn nearly 10 billion in one trip.

"Shhh

Li Qing's eyes suddenly lit up.

When he returned to Jinmen, he left only 500 million of the 2 billion on hand, and the remaining 1.5 billion all purchased supplies and loaded them onto the ship.

On the third day, the goods arrived, and he came to the transit base through the Star Gate again.

It's a pity that he doesn't have enough time, otherwise he can use the Star Gate to pour supplies back and forth between the Jinmen and the transit base.

Although there is not much difference in the price between Jinmen and the transit base, it can also make a gross profit, and the difference between the two places for some special materials can even reach about 5%, anyway, the ticket for him to take the frigate back and forth is only 2 million, and even a 1% difference in the price of bulk goods worth tens of billions is a profit of several hundred million.

It's not much in a single time, but it's quite a lot to earn when it's more times.

It's just that there is a risk problem in doing so, because the two places are connected by a star gate, and the price fluctuations in the two places will never be too large, and once there is a big fluctuation in a certain price, the market will intervene to stabilize prices.

He must sell the goods before the price stabilizes, and once he misses the opportunity and the price returns to stability, then he will be in vain, and may even lose money.

Of course, the time to pass through the stargate directly is very short, and the probability of this situation is not large, but the probability of making money is still high, but it is very troublesome and tiring.

What's more, he has been doing this all the time, and it is easy to be looked down upon.

"I need to find a stable supplier of raw materials!"

All the goods he buys now are bought from the market, which is the market price, not the wholesale price.

If you can find a stable supplier of large raw materials, or find a stable supply channel and lower the purchase price, then you will definitely be able to earn more.

Li Qing decided to wait for this trip to finish and find time to learn more about the upstream raw material suppliers to see if he could find a suitable one.

Returning to the transit base galaxy, he left the transit base according to the coordinates given by Li Lie, came to a galaxy next door, came out of the wormhole and flew in one of the directions at sub-light speed for more than three hours, before coming to a frozen planet, he saw a super large fleet moored on the surface of the planet from a distance, and the center was full of large cargo ships.

To the left and right of the fleet, a large number of warships were moored, parked at different angles in the form of different fleets.

One of the things that caught his attention the most was a large fleet of more than 600 warships, including fourteen battleships, at the front of the fleet.

For the pioneers, being able to form a large fleet with more than 600 warships and raise fourteen battleships is already quite ferocious, you must know that even the Burning Ghost team has been entrenched in Jinmen for so long, and now it seems that there is no such a powerful fleet.

In addition to this fleet, there were three powerful fleets with battleships around, with one, two, and seven battleships for a total of ten battleships.

All combined, the total number of warships has already exceeded three thousand, but the total number is not as large as that of transport ships.

Li Qing contacted Li Lie first, at this time he and Li Qi and the others were in the escort fleet, connected to the communication, he was surprised to find that he directly entered the fleet channel, and then was pulled into Li Lie's team channel, Li Qi and the others were there.

It is estimated that Li Lie said before that Li Qi and others were not surprised to see him coming, and even said hello to him.

He waved in response, and Li Lie said to him:

"I'll put you in my team first, and then you can follow us."

"Okay."

Li Lie's team has a total of eleven people, in addition to him and Li Qi, there are also a few people from the Li clan of Tongqinghe who Li Lie pulled, who can be pulled by him, basically mixed in general, but it will not be too bad.

In other words, there are two factions within his small team of eleven people.

But now they seem to get along quite well, and they don't see any contradictions between different factions or anything.

After a brief welcome, Li Qing was assigned two battleships to follow the team, of which the frigate was temporarily under the command of the squad, and he commanded the destroyer alone.

Such an assignment is mainly due to the fact that the destroyers under his command are fast and suitable for reconnaissance.

Listening to Li Lie, although this trip is probably a wave of soy sauce, and it is unlikely that there will be an accident with the size of this escort fleet, but after they get on the road, they will still arrange some tasks, such as patrolling or reconnaissance, and a boat is more convenient and flexible.

There were still three days left before departure, and Li Qing saw that it was still early, so he opened a personal passage in the battleship alone and entered the universe in his palm, and came to the warehouse area of the high-dimensional fortress, and most of the goods were piled up in the warehouse area at this time.

The huge warehouse area is 1,000 kilometers long, wide and high, divided into 10 layers, each layer is 100 kilometers, and subdivided into different levels, and his tens of billions of goods are placed in it, and even one percent of the first floor is not stuffed.

The goods were placed on the first floor of the warehouse, and the batch of five hundred clones and five hundred robot commandos were placed in one of the sections, and when Li Qing came in again, the commanders of the two teams were setting up a rudimentary temporary base under his command.

Li Qing glanced at it, pinching his chin in his hand and thinking.

He snapped his fingers a little, and had already made a decision in his heart.

Considering the rest of the journey, and the estimated length of time he would have to spend on Zutar's side, he felt the need to first build a base in the palm universe where he could easily self-sufficiency, and then place three laboratories in it.

It's easy to choose where to build the base, just build it in this warehouse area, and choose the top 10th floor.

The length and width are 1,000 kilometers, and the height is 100 kilometers, and the height of this 100 kilometers can be subdivided into different levels.

Such a large area is already more than the average total area of asteroids, and to be honest, it is no problem to fully develop it to accommodate hundreds of millions of people.

There are 10 floors in total, all of which can theoretically accommodate tens of billions of people.

But in reality, it was just a matter of thinking, and although it was feasible in practice, if it did, it would take more materials and money to maintain such a large closed community than he could have imagined.

You must know that this is in the palm of the universe, just a warehouse area, surrounded by a thick layer of unknown materials, no food, no water, not even the most worthless stones and soil, if you want to build a world in it, all the materials have to be obtained from the outside.

This consumption is much more expensive than the comprehensive transformation of a planet into a habitable planet from scratch and the development of it, if all of this ten-story warehouse area blooms, it can almost transform seven or eight barren planets, and the follow-up maintenance is also astronomical.

Even if he is too idle to grow hair, he will not do such a thing, with this money and materials, wouldn't it be fragrant to build a dreadnought? Wouldn't it be nice to assemble a powerful fleet to capture a living planet?

Therefore, at most, he will build a temporary base in it, and only build some infrastructure, which does not require a large investment.

For the time being, there will only be a few clone soldiers, as well as a shipyard construction engineer, apprentices and scientists in three laboratories, and by the way, a group of management talents.

Of course, in the early stage, only a few clone soldiers were raised, and the construction engineers of the shipyard were raised.

As for apprentices and scientists, as well as management talents, they will have to wait until they make a few more trips to make more money.

The main reason is that scientific research is too expensive, the input is simply a bottomless pit, and the output is difficult to say, but in most cases there is nothing.

At the very least, if there were no scientists in charge of the laboratory, no amount of money would have produced any good results.

But for any power, the three basic laboratories of biology, physics, and engineering are necessary, because they are related to the acquisition of higher ships and weapons.

In the universe, the upper limit of conventional weapons that players can obtain is the fifth generation of technology, and after the fifth generation, there are also the sixth generation of technology, the seventh generation of technology and other unconventional powerful weapons.

Compared with the conventional fifth-generation technology, the power of weapons and ships will be qualitatively powerful in the form of geometric multiples from the sixth-generation technology.

But normally, it is difficult for players to obtain more than five generations of technology on their own, which must be researched by themselves.

For example, the major armies of the United Empire of Mankind have special top-level laboratories, and they invest a large amount of money every year in order to research and develop super fifth-generation technology, but the results are Liao.

Most of the time huge amounts of money were invested, but as a result, only a super-fifth-generation version of a certain weapon, five and a half generations, and not the sixth, could be developed.

Five and a half generations are stronger than five generations of technology, but they are only as strong as an enhanced version of the fifth generation, rather than the qualitative change of the sixth generation they expected.

Of course, even if it is only five and a half generations, all fleets have been updated on the whole, and the combined combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of the fifth generation, but this is only a strong strength on paper, not what they want, what they want is a sixth-generation technology that includes all weapons and ships, only in this way can the military master go further and become a lord.

This is because, in the new universe, only those who have a complete system of sixth-generation technology can be promoted to the Lord of the Star Sea, become the Elector family of the United Empire of Mankind, the real ruler, and have the qualifications to compete for the Emperor of the United Empire of Mankind.

At the same time, after becoming the Lord of the Star Sea, he will also cross a certain boundary that cannot be described in words.

In layman's terms, when you are promoted to the Lord of the Star Sea, in an instant, your name will be recognized by the entire universe, and all the space civilizations in the entire universe that have left the galaxy will know about your existence.

Similar to the gods in DND novels, the moment you ignite the divine fire and hold the throne high to seal the gods, all the powerhouses in the entire multiverse will instantly know your existence.

This means that in the United Empire of Mankind, there are a full fourteen powerful Star Sea Lords with six generations of technology.

It is worth mentioning that the sixth generation of technology does not mean to find a new way to use energy, but a breakthrough in science and technology, of course, the use of new energy and breakthrough in the sixth generation of technology is also a way, but this road is basically invisible.

In addition, it is not that ordinary players cannot use the ship weapons of the sixth generation technology, if they have the opportunity to obtain high-level weapons left over from ancient powerful civilizations, or directly purchase the blueprints in this regard from the Fourteen Star Sea Lord Family, they can also use it after manufacturing.

This means that there is no need to study any technology for the average player, and only those with large ambitions or legions will do it.

They thought that in the future, they would have a chance to become a military master, and at this time, stronger technology would come in handy, and if they broke through the shackles of science and technology, the future would be limitless.

Li Qing had this idea in mind, he also wanted to become a military master, or even become a lord of the Star Sea.

Of course, these are too far away from him at this stage, and he has not seen the United Empire of Mankind enter the new universe for tens of thousands of years, and there are only fourteen Star Sea Lords so far, which shows how difficult it is.

But although everything is difficult at the beginning, we can't help but start with this beginning, first build the laboratory, put up the shelves, and the rest is all kinds of accumulation, slowly expand the scale of the three major laboratories, and then reach a certain point can come in handy.

It took two days to adjust the position of the barracks and carry the supplies, and when he came out of the universe in the palm of his hand, the team was ready to go.

At a certain moment, Li Qing was chatting with Li Lie, when suddenly a light curtain in front of the bridge automatically popped open, revealing a woman in a light green military uniform with a very delicate and beautiful face.

Seeing this beautiful face, Li Qing suddenly felt a strong sense of amazement.

The woman smiled and said crisply:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the caravan has been assembled, all the goods are on board, and it is about to depart, this journey is long and dangerous, and I will have to bear with you brothers and sisters."

Holding his hands together and saluting, his beautiful face and delicate figure suddenly felt a refreshing heroic air rushing to his face.

The light curtain was automatically disconnected, and Li Lie, the light curtain on the other side, said with a smile:

"How's it going, isn't it pretty?"

Li Qing came back to his senses and replied in silence:

"Beautiful!"

"Are you tempted?"

He reached out and pressed his chest and nodded earnestly:

"It's really exciting."

Li Lie laughed:

"That's right, nine out of ten men in this fleet are excited."
