Chapter 42: Transactions

"One man as the governor of a planet?" Chen Mo smiled, "You really dare to ask for a price." ”

"No way, after all, this is the legacy of our ancient ancestors." Aliyah said with a smile.

In any case, exchanging the positions of the governors of the two planets for drawings is outrageous.

But this is business, and if there is an asking price, there must be a counteroffer.

So Chen Mo tried to bargain: "I'm not a high lord, and even the empire doesn't know about my existence, so I shouldn't have the right to decide the ownership of a planet." ”

"It doesn't matter, as long as you take the Karsk system, you can make us governors, and the Council of High Lords doesn't care who the governor is, as long as you can pay tithes as usual." Arya said.

"The price is too high, I don't accept it." Chen Mo saw that he couldn't move, so he could only forcibly ask for a change in price.

"I don't think it's a high price." Arya's eyes flashed with shrewdness, "A drop of water is worthless to us, but it is worth it if it is transported to a barren planet, and the same is true of merchant ship drawings." ”

Hearing this, Chen Mo was silent.

He even thinks that what Arya said does have a point, and that different things are indeed at different prices in different places.

Just like a living person in Neklomunda is of little value, but if the population is on Karsk 7, Chen Mo can't even build more residential and industrial areas because of the small population, because there is no one to live in it, and the building is meaningless.

Seeing that Chen Mo stopped talking, Arya thought that he might be thinking about something that was dangerous to the seller, such as grabbing goods or something.

The life of a ronin is always indispensable to meet buyers who want to grab goods.

"My ship is on it, and we can teleport to the ship with a command from me and never come back." "I can only thank you for renovating my merchant ship to give it more loading space and keep it alive." ”

"No, I'm not going to rob it." Chen Mo shook his head, because he also knew that the merchant ship was in the sky over the Karsk 6.

Otherwise......

"What does your sister think, and why doesn't she speak?" Chen Mo looked at Sophia, who had been silent.

Arya is too shrewd, business is her ability to eat, and she is really very difficult to do.

But Sophia is different, and maybe she can use her idea of wanting to be lord forever to drive the price down.

For example, from being a governor of two planets to a territory.

"When I came, I told her to stop talking, because my sister is good in every sense of the word, to you." Arya laughed.

Hearing this, Sophia was naturally very unhappy, and she frowned and looked at her sister, ready to teach her a lesson like she had done when she was a child.

"You were called here to learn from me." "If it were me," said Arya, "I would have asked the Prophet before I unbuttoned it, so that I would not cry the next morning after being refuted mercilessly." ”

Alia's mouth is really good, she got up and left directly after Sophia said, which also made Chen Mo helpless.

At this point, there is no other way but to say yes.

"Deal, two planets, two governors." Chen Mo stood up and looked down at Aliya condescendingly, "I have one more request, after the ship is built, you will be responsible for training the crew, if the ship is built and no one can drive it when I want to go to war, then the ship will have no effect." ”

"I accept that there is a former Imperial Navy officer in my caravan, and it is not a problem to train the navy." Arya nodded.

Chen Mo turned around and walked out of the conference room.

At this time, Carl was standing outside, and when Chen Mo came out, he walked with Chen Mo in the corridor.

"My lord, is the position of governor of the two planets too expensive?" Carl asked as he walked.

"Did you hear that?"

"Well, I was just about to report to you about the arrival of a new batch of Saint Casting Warriors."

"You don't mean to make me cheat afterwards, do you?"

Chen Mo stood still and looked at Carl seriously.

Carl nodded.

In Karl's opinion, the Karsk system must be ruled by Chen Mo, and all means are necessary for this, because Karsk has been ravaged, and the people here should have a loving and kind ruler who will fight to save the civilians.

There should never be two planets in the hands of a madwoman who wants to be a lord every day and a businessman.

"Are you serious?" Chen Mo asked, "The prophet of the god of all machines and the future master of the Karsk system will play tricks on the blueprints of a merchant ship, and this will become a joke." ”

"No one will believe the joke because they won't have proof." Karl said in a deep voice.

"You're still helping veterans while she's doing business in the Empire, and I promise she's got a camera in her eyes. But don't worry, I didn't say it's liberating to be a Governor in the Karsk system. Chen Mo said that he would not talk about it anymore and left directly.

……

After the deal was negotiated, the drawings were available quickly.

Arya directly launched a large warehouse 100 meters high with a merchant ship, and the blueprints were in the warehouse.

These drawings are not data, they are not real paper, they are just paper as a code because they are engraved on board by board.

Even those boards were made of the same material as the battleship's armor, and it must have used some kind of advanced technology to engrave words and patterns on them.

But no matter what, the drawings of the merchant ship were obtained, and Chen Mo directly entered them into the terminal database, and then printed out thousands of printing devices, and then printed the same number of drones, so that the drones carried the printing equipment and began to print merchant ships.

The process of printing is nothing short of a miracle.

Thousands of drones flew in the air, printing the shells of merchant ships on large open spaces, just like paintings.

It's just that the drawing is on paper and the printing is in reality.

Printing merchant ships requires huge amounts of mineral resources, and Arya and her merchant ships travel back and forth between Karsk 7 and 6 to transport minerals dug up in Karsk 7 Industrial Zone.

These minerals are used to build more terminals and print drones in addition to building merchant ships.

The Industrial Order is also stepping up its efforts to train technical priests to operate the terminals.

During the long shipbuilding work, Chen Mo never gave up the work of intelligence gathering, and by the way, he also asked Sophia's Star Whisperer to help send a Star Language to the Mechanic Sect.

The intelligence work went well.

Thankfully, the battle for Karsk-1 continued, and the resistance of the loyalists was very stubborn, and the rebels were never able to conquer the fortress of the planet, so they had to constantly move their forces to Karsk-1.

The call for help did not go well.

Maybe the Star Whisperer was lost in the sea of distress messages, or maybe the Star Whisperer loyal to Sophia was simply half-witted and couldn't send it successfully.

As a result, Chen Mo could only face the worst-case scenario, that is, he himself led people to face the rebels in the Karsk system.

And soon he will learn that this is not the worst case scenario.
