Chapter 17: Profiteering

Hearing this, Lao Cui suddenly came to his senses.

"Minister, what are you going to do?"

During this time, they have made a lot of money from Shi Man's hands, and taking the dividends from the last ammunition sales as an example, their team has made a lot of money.

So now that he heard Shi Man say that he could make extra money, Lao Cui was naturally positive.

Shi Man pointed to the mining ships in the dock and said, "How about I lease these mining ships to you at a price of 500,000 a day, and then I will buy all the minerals you collect at a 50% discount according to the market price?" ”

In this regard, Lao Cui was very embarrassed.

"Minister, I can't agree to this kind of extra money, because you have to deal with the leader in this matter, and I don't have this power."

This was not the original business of reselling light missiles, because the business was only a few trips at the beginning, and they dared to continue to do it only with Wang Yan's consent.

And now Shi Man's extra money is equivalent to hiring them for mining, you must know that the asteroid belt of the Free Angel Galaxy is contracted by Shi Man, and the profits obtained have nothing to do with the Free Angel Resistance.

So this matter still needs Wang Yan's consent.

In the end, after discussing with Wang Yan, the two sides also reached a final agreement.

Shi Man came out of the mining ship, Wang Yan came out, and the minerals collected could only be sold to Shi Man, and it was 50% off the market price.

This condition is acceptable to both parties and is mutually beneficial.

Subsequently, under the leadership of Lao Cui, three newly formed mining teams flew towards the asteroid.

Lao Cui piloted the Dolphin-class industrial command ship to emit mining pulse waves to give mining bonuses to the four surrounding delusional-class ships, and the nanobots in the pulse waves can greatly enhance the mining tools, so as to increase the efficiency of mining.

Looking at the steady stream of minerals entering the ship's cabin, Lao Cui activated the industrial core to compress it, and the smile on his face did not decrease for a moment.

It's all money!

There's nothing better than looking at the numbers on your account increasing all the time.

A week has passed, and in this week, the satellite mine was dragged to a suitable location and blown up, and was collected by Lao Cui and others, and now the second round of satellite mining is now underway.

During this week, the three asteroid belts and satellite mines also brought a lot of minerals to Shiman, but the three asteroid belts and satellite ores only produced common tri-titanium alloys or crystal-like cements, and the content of the rest of the minerals was very small.

In addition to these basic minerals, the manufacture of warships and weapons and equipment also requires rare minerals, and these Free Angel Systems do not produce them at all, and can only be purchased from the outside.

And the warships and equipment that Shi Man is currently preparing to equip the Free Angel Resistance Army are in urgent need of these rare minerals, so he can only ask Wang Yan to send someone to Star Tower Star City to buy them back.

However, the price of such rare minerals is very high, so high that Shi Man cannot accept it.

He built the warship just to reduce the cost, and the cost is too high!

Subsequently, Shi Man personally went to Xingtao Star City for inspection, and immediately established the New Eden Group, and opened a weapon shop in Xingtao Star City, specializing in selling weapons and ammunition, and recovering all kinds of original minerals.

As for the battleships, it is not yet time.

After all, even if this weapon and ammunition are counted, there are many people in this market competition, so no one will pay attention to his family.

But the battleship is different, there are only three forces that sell the battleship in the entire Chaos Domain, and the biggest is the Xingtao family, if Shi Man intervenes now, it will definitely be eye-catching.

Therefore, Shi Man's weapon shop only sells some conventional weapons and ammunition, and the slightly better ones are not sold, but they also open the market with affordable prices.

The arms trade is actually just a cover for this store, but in fact, the main purpose is to buy raw minerals!

Shi Man found out that this is the real profiteering!

Take the cheapest primordial mineral Mortal Crystal as an example, this thing contains a large amount of three-titanium alloy, which is only sold for 10 star coins a standard unit in Star Tower Star City, but the three-titanium alloy obtained by Shi Man after buying it back for smelting can be worth 1,000 star coins!

That's a hundredfold!

The same is true for other primordial minerals, which can be multiplied by tens or hundreds of times in this effort of smelting and reselling!

What is windfall profits, monopoly is windfall profits!

In this chaotic realm, there are only a few companies that can smelt these primordial minerals, so even if you can mine them, you can only sell them to them, there is no other way.

For conventional minerals, there is no need for a professional mining barge, only a few miners need to be mounted on the battleship to be mined.

It's just that the efficiency is extremely low, but it can be collected anyway, and this is also the method adopted by many forces.

After all, not everyone wants an uncontrolled fleet on their territory, even if it's just an industrial fleet.

And relying on the original minerals purchased by this store, Shi Man finally got a steady stream of minerals and put the battleship on the production line.

On this day, Wang Yan was invited to enter Attano under the leadership of Shi Man.

After getting off the spaceship, Wang Yan looked at Shi Man, who came to answer, and couldn't help but tease: "It's rare that you are so busy looking for me!" ”

During this period of time, Shi Man has either been here in Attano or in Star Tower Star City, and he has never been to the City of Freedom Angels once, which also caused Wang Yan to not see him once during this time.

Looking at Wang Yan who was teasing him in front of him, Shi Man couldn't help but be stunned.

In the past, Wang Yan was indifferent to him, and he smiled very little, let alone took the initiative to joke.

But I have to say that this little girl looks pretty when she laughs.

If Wang Yan on weekdays is a snow-capped mountain lotus, then now it is a plum blossom in the sun, which is even more moving.

This made Shi Man's heart pound.

Looking at Shi Man who was in a daze at him, Wang Yan couldn't help but blush, but quickly returned to his usual indifferent expression.

And Shi Man, who came back to his senses, couldn't help but touch his nose in embarrassment, and then said the purpose of inviting him to Attano this time.

"The warships and equipment I promised to reequip you have been completed, and I will find you for handover this time."

Battleship equipment?!

Hearing this, Wang Yan's eyes couldn't help but light up.

"Where?"

"In the hangar, I'll show you there."

Subsequently, Shi Man took Wang Yan to a hangar, Shi Man said while opening the hangar: "I have authorized you to this hangar, and the future warships will be placed in it, you can just pick it up yourself."

But the authority of this hangar is only you and me, you have to pay attention to this! ”

And Wang Yan was obviously not interested in hearing this, but looked at the neatly arranged battleships in the slowly opening hangar and couldn't help but show a look of shock.
