The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons

Li Qing pinched his chin in thought, and his father's words revealed a lot of useful information.

First of all, his excellent performance has entered the decision-making level of the family, and the family will gradually increase investment in him, and will ask for his opinion, and he will decide what he needs.

This is a good thing. With the support of the family, who would insist on self-reliance.

Those wealthy generation bigwigs started from scratch because they had no support and had to start from scratch. Who doesn’t want to be like a rich second generation? The starting capital is money that most entrepreneurs will never earn in their lifetime.

The second important piece of information is the matter that is personally related to me that my father said

"Could it be that you found me a marriage partner?"

Personally related, soliciting opinions, linking two keywords together, this is the only possibility after thinking about it.

"It hurts a bit!"

Marriage is not excluded, but he already has someone, both Yu Yuefei and Ding Youran are very good, regardless of appearance, personality or family background, they are all top-notch.

Maybe not the best, but the most suitable.

"No, I have to tell my father in advance, otherwise I will be in trouble if I order it rashly."

He immediately recorded a video and uploaded it into the chip, and introduced his current situation to his father, asking him to help test Yu and Ding's tone.

After I finished, I recorded another paragraph about my own requirements, asking the family to support a group of senior professional talents, especially senior naval architects who can build battleships, as many as there are, and apprentices with that qualification.

There is no limit to the number of such high-level professional talents, even if there are not so many battleships to manufacture for a while, they can be kept in their hands for nothing.

After recording, hand over the two chips to the manager of the family office, and ask him to take them back when the family caravan comes over.

Well, there are a total of 111 blueprints for battleships, each with 1 billion star dollars, and a total payment of 113 billion star dollars.

Here are the rules, and you have to pay for it.

After recording these, Li Qing sat on the sofa thinking about how to get more high-end professionals.

Top professional talents like the chief engineer of battleship construction are extremely rare. The main reason is that the prerequisites are extremely outrageous, and they need a blue-name talent called 'knowledge and versatility'.

This blue-name talent is a must-have talent for all rare professions, just like the purple 'flash of inspiration' talent that top scientists have. You must have this talent to be able to work in these top rare professions.

From a certain point of view, the blue-name talent of erudition and talent is even rarer than the general purple-name talent.

This is also why Li Qingming has some gold-named and mythical subordinates like Servants of Light, but he can't achieve this rare profession in batches, so he still has to dig it out by himself.

It is worth mentioning that although players do not need this erudite talent, the upper limit of the skill level above LV20 and the massive shipbuilding experience required to improve this skill also stop most players from the shipbuilding stream. Restrictions, but not everyone can become the chief engineer of a battleship or even a flagship with higher requirements.

After dealing with this matter, there is nothing to do for the time being, so he specially spared time to go out to the black market with Ding Youran.

I don't know if the last auction was very successful. Before the black market auction this time, invitations were specially sent to most of the large and above teams in the outpost.

Speaking of which, the last black market auction was exactly a year ago, less than a month away, which is considered once a year.

A Black Hawk frigate sailed into the starry sky and slowly headed towards the black market.

There is still about a week before the auction officially starts, so don't worry.

Almost a year later, the black market at this time is already very famous. It is said to be a black market, but in fact most players know that there is a very fun entertainment place and a place for trading.

It's just that here only some black goods or things that are not easy to sell are traded here, and the mines and various industrial products mined by players are not accepted here.

I dare not accept it.

If you dare to accept these, it is a business grab with the outpost base, and the expeditionary army finds an excuse to suppress it in minutes.

No matter how popular it is, the nature of the black market will not change.

Even the existence of this black market is subject to the permission of the expeditionary army. The black market must pay tribute to the expeditionary army every year to continue to exist.

Three days later, the Black Hawk frigate entered the galaxy where the black market was located, and immediately received a communication from the black market, directing them to the location of the black market, and there were a lot of advertisements at the same time.

Compared with the last time when the advertisement was quite subtle, it will be much more courageous after a year.

Following the guide to the location of the black market, one can see at a glance that the residential station group at the original location of the black market has disappeared, replaced by a huge star fort, with an extremely large fleet moored on the edge.

Not far from the Star Fort, there is a group of residential stations connected together, and there are probably forty or fifty of them, large or small.

"Good guy, this development speed is a bit fierce!"

Ding Youran, who was leaning in his arms, said:

"I heard that several consortiums from the United Empire of Mankind have invested in the black market. The scale has been expanding in the past few months. With the support of the large consortia within the United Empire, the black market is preparing to do a big wave. There will be A lot of good stuff, I heard that there will be a Dreadnought flagship and a flagship aircraft carrier naked ship appearing in the finale auction."

"Finished flagship?"

Li Qing stood up in surprise:

"Isn't this foul?"

Ding Youran shook her head:

"I asked the head of the legion, and she consulted with the high-level expeditionary force. They were two bare ships, not equipped with any weapon accessories, including T-slot doomsday-class main guns and aircraft carrier fleets. Even if you want to form a combat force, at least one or two After 20 years, after the black market sponsored a large sum of money to the expeditionary force, these two auctions passed the review of the expeditionary force."

Li Qing

He immediately checked his funds.

"754 billion stars."

A little surprised, he didn't expect to have so much money in his hand.

In addition, the 1.54 billion cubic meters of steel collected in the ancient battlefield is worth 600.6 billion star yuan, and the remaining 10 billion cubic meters of raw ore collected by the legion for him after refining, is worth 3.9 trillion cubic meters.

However, after he sells out the money, he needs to return 2.72 billion star dollars to the legion. How much he can earn depends on his ability.

But no matter what, these materials are temporarily in their hands, and they can be temporarily converted into star dollars when needed.

On a comprehensive basis, he now has 5,254.6 billion stars at his disposal.

"Hiss, am I so rich?"

Considering that the 500 billion in cash could not be raised at the auction last year, and now there are 5 trillion in funds all of a sudden, this growth rate is a bit rapid.

But of course, with the universe in the palm of your hand, it is inevitable to have this speed of development.

According to the current development model, if you wait until next year, you will definitely have more funds in your hands, and it is possible to hold ten trillion yuan in assets.

However, it is also possible that it will be poorer than last year. It is a bottomless pit of investment to develop a planet. In addition, it also needs to be invested in the development of the universe in the palm of your hand. At that time, it may be negative equity.

Having said that, when the warship was berthed at the berth of Star Fort, Li Qing received an invitation letter from the black market auction house, which contained a brochure with information on all the items in this auction, and the last page was exactly two ships. flagship information.

Li Qing carefully checked the basic attributes of the two flagships, as well as the auction price, and pinched his brows, feeling a little headache.

The starting price is not high, at 300 billion star dollars.

But at this juncture, getting two flagships to come over, it doesn't cost a few trillions, and one of them can't stand up to the painstaking efforts of the forces behind the black market.

Unlike blueprints, the finished flagship has already saved several years of construction time, and it only takes no more than two years to prepare weapons and ammunition. It will enter service after two years, which is the most critical time for competition and competition. At that time, anyone A legion has a flagship, and the strength is instantly dominant, crushing all living beings.

He seriously suspected that someone was behind the scenes, trying to disrupt the situation at the outpost, so that the current disadvantaged team would have a chance to fish in troubled waters.

But no matter what, the fire was successfully burned.

No one can remain calm after seeing the flagship. In addition, the black market has been a big fanfare early on, and invitations have been sent to all team leaders, big and small. This time the black market auction, it is estimated that there will be a war of burning money.

Li Qing can't stay out of the matter, although there is already a Dreadnought flagship, but who would think that there are too few such things.

Even if he already has one, he has to go all out to buy it, even if he borrows money.

Buying it yourself will not only strengthen yourself again, but also weaken your opponent.

The bad news is that there must be a lot of competition. The good news is that this time he can get the support of the legion. He can use the 2.72 trillion funds belonging to the legion at any time, plus his own funds for a total of 52000 trillion.

In addition, the entire legion can make up another two to three trillion yuan.

A total of 7 trillion and nearly 8 trillion funds

Well, he's not sure if he'll be able to win one.

At such a critical time, such a key force, and the one with the highest auction price, will definitely have a serious premium.

But if the premium is too high.

"Skull hurts!"

Compared with the last auction held in one of the residences, the current auction is inside the Star Fort. At the same time, the trade area and entertainment area are also placed inside the Star Castle. The surrounding large and small residences are mostly warehouses and employee living areas. Even some living stations are commodities that can be sold.

The auction hadn't started yet, so Li Qing was not in a hurry, and went shopping on the pedestrian street in the entertainment area, holding the beauty's hand.

The entertainment industry here is even more prosperous than Star City over the outpost. It has not been seen for a year, and many things that were not there before are now available.

The street is full of clothing and various small specialty food shops, including some special products of alien civilizations. They held hands while shopping and ate slowly along the way.

At a corner, Li Qing saw a big shop surrounded by many people, and saw a familiar industry.

I don't know why a shop that gambles on boxes is located on the side of the pedestrian street.

Seeing many tourists unpacking the boxes curiously, Li Qing couldn't help recalling the scene when he opened the boxes.

"Wait, I still have a Lamp of Ayimola that hasn't been used yet."

He suddenly remembered this, and quickly recalled that this thing seemed to be thrown in a corner of the warehouse area in the universe in the palm of his hand.

With a thought, he flipped his hand, and a simple copper lamp appeared in his hand.

Ding Youran happened to see it out of the corner of her eye, and after taking a closer look, she asked a little uncertainly:

"This... seems to be a treasure?"

"The Lamp of Ayimola!"

He shared the attributes of the treasures with Ding Youran, and asked:

"Do you know this treasure?"

She nodded and said:

"I've heard, I heard that this is a replica of Ayamola's Lamp. It also has the function of wishing, but its function is not as good as the real Ayumola's Lamp."

"Do you know the upper limit of wishing for this lamp? What is the most you can wish for?"

"I know, but I don't recommend you to use it."

"why?"

Ding Youran wondered:

"Don't you know that this imitation lamp of Ayumola can find the real lamp of Ayumola?"

"???"

She carefully explained:

"The lamp spirit in this imitation lamp of Ayimola is also called Ayimola. It is actually one of the sons of the real lamp spirit. If you make a wish to the son of the lamp spirit and want to see the real Ayimola , the son of Ayimola will tell you a vague coordinate, and you can follow this coordinate to find Ayimola."

"Can it still be like this?"

Li Qing was very surprised.

Ding Youran nodded, and said:

"However, this coordinate only lasts for one year, and it will disappear after one year. If the distance is too far, the coordinate will disappear before you can find it. Of course, you can rest assured that the distance between the son of Ayimola and the lamp spirit of Ayimola It won't be too far away, the real magic lamp must be in the Milky Way, but I don't know where it is."

"In addition, Ayimola's magic lamp is a top-notch treasure. It has its own independent personality and its own preferences. If He doesn't like you, even if you find Ayimola's location, you won't be able to see the magic lamp."

"emmm"

Li Qing picked up the copper lamp and turned it over, then put it away again:

"Then let's talk about it when I'm free."

I definitely don't have time to find the magic lamp now, and I don't have the strength.

Although, as Ding Youran said, the magic lamp must be in the Milky Way, but not necessarily in the nearby star field, or even in the United Empire of Man or even the Perseus Arm.

It’s okay to be nearby. If it’s in the galactic center area or other spiral arms, it’s definitely too late to catch up within a year.

Fortunately, I didn't know how to use it before, and I didn't know what to make a wish for a while, so I didn't use it, otherwise I wouldn't have the opportunity to spy on the real Ayimola magic lamp.

Compared with the limited effect of this imitation, the real Ayimola magic lamp is a top-notch treasure with very IMBA effect. Even wishing on a complete Titan super flag can be successful without any deviation or sequelae of wishing.

The two chatted while shopping, and the time passed quickly.

Play here today, go there tomorrow, and occasionally go to the residential station group behind to travel.

There are businessmen who have substantially transformed the interior space of some residential stations into various natural environments, and added various recreational facilities into scenic spots with mountains and water, which is really fun.

The carefully designed and remodeled landscape is unique in its novelty, and it's nice to come here occasionally.

Time passed unknowingly, and soon it was the day when the auction was about to start.

Receiving the reminder of the auction early in the morning, Li Qing stretched himself, and sent a message to Ding Youran next door to tell her to get up and wash up by himself.
