The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons

Then there is the purchase of ammunition. There are three types of weapons on the frigate, namely a P-slot point defense weapon, two machine guns, and three electromagnetic guns, so three types of weapons and ammunition are required.

Among them, the unit price of the shelling bullets for P slot point defense is 10 stars, and 100,000 bullets are a base number. According to the speed at which the bullets are fired, no matter what, you have to prepare five base number shelling bullets, which will cost you 5 million.

Then the metal shells of S small electromagnetic guns cost 1,500 star yuan each. All electromagnetic guns, regardless of the size, size, or size, have 100 shells as a base, and the total is 150,000 bases. He bought 50 bases in one go, a total of 5,000 pieces Small metal cannonballs cost a total of 7.5 million stars.

As for the shelling shells of the machine guns, it costs 150 yuan a piece, and 5,000 machine shells are used as a base, which adds up to a base of 750,000. Considering the firing frequency of the machine guns, a total of 10 bases were purchased for a total of 50,000 machine gun shells. The shells cost a total of 7.5 million.

5 million + 7.5 million + 7.5 million spent a total of 20 million.

Then, a frigate needs 50 clone crew members, specially used to manually control various weapons and key equipment on the battleship, no salary is required, and the buyout price is 200,000.

3 senior crew members are used to assist the captain in commanding the crew on board, with a monthly salary of 100,000+.

A frigate captain with a monthly salary of 500,000+ can be temporarily saved, but the captain of the mining ship and the captain of the industrial ship cannot save it.

The recruitment of senior crew requires a month's salary in advance, so at the beginning, you have to spend 300,000 senior crew salary + 500,000*2 = 1 million captain's salary, a total of 1.3 million stars.

Cloning is a buyout, 50 * 200,000 for a total of 10 million stars.

After doing this, the money that should be spent is basically spent, and the remaining 40.64 million is temporarily reserved, which is mainly used for monthly wages and death benefits.

The bought-out clones die as soon as they die, and the senior crew members are natural persons. They not only need wages, but also pay high pensions when they die in battle.

The next step is to wait for the merchants to slowly deliver the ordered goods. The Jinmen Galaxy is the capital of Jinmen Province and also a trade center. Almost all the headquarters of large chambers of commerce are here, and the delivery speed is very fast, less than an hour , Communications came in one after another, and all the ordered goods were delivered one by one, and all were loaded into the industrial ship.

As the planet slowly and automatically moved to another angle, the light of the stars was no longer directly shining, and the night gradually fell. The huge planets lit up with neon lights one by one, and the huge star port also burst into dazzling light.

The Yu family, the owners of the Jinmen Province, lives on Colonial Planet No. 2. On this ocean planet, 92% of which is covered by seawater, the Yu family is located on a huge island of more than 100,000 square kilometers.

In the evening, a small aircraft personally took Li Qing to the No. 2 colony, and after entering the atmosphere, it flew directly to the island called the Magnificent Orb.

Although the entire planet is open to outsiders, this planet is known for its culture and tourism, but without the permission of the Yu family, outsiders cannot enter the Magnificent Island.

A complex of buildings stretching for dozens of kilometers, there are no high-rise buildings, only exquisite small buildings and small courtyards dotted among the natural mountains and rivers, full of ancient Chinese style.

Ordinary people like high-rise buildings.

Wealthy people like to be close to nature like this.

The aircraft stopped among a group of buildings. At this time, many aircrafts had already stopped here, and young girls with extraordinary appearance walked out of them.

These boys and girls looked at each other, Li Qing smiled and nodded to them.

The servant led him to a three-story building that was supposed to be used by the Yu family to entertain guests. From the outside, it looked like it occupied a huge area, but the interior on the first floor seemed even wider. At this time, there were already many young people chatting in twos and threes. Most of them didn't recognize him, and they nodded their heads when they saw him.

The Yu family invited not only the Li family, but also many children from big families from within the United Empire. They didn't know each other, so naturally they wouldn't look down on him like the Li family did.

Speaking of it, Li Qing was a little puzzled. It seemed that this year there were more children from big families in Jinmen Province than he had imagined. This made him wonder whether the empire was going to make a big move.

Although the Li family didn't pay much attention to it, there was no shortage of noble elite education. Before, his subconscious incarnation was very mediocre, but now Li Qing's main consciousness dominated, and his powerful innate attributes immediately revealed extraordinary.

The ultra-high memory can clearly recall the content of many noble elite courses that he has attended, coupled with the same powerful perception, he is keenly aware of a trace of abnormality.

I remember that in the past, most of the young children of the empire’s major families went to the Faust star field farther north of the empire’s main star field, and were entangled with a powerful alien civilization called Bruwan Union that occupied it for thousands of years. In the past, the main direction of attack has always been that side, and most of the young juniors who pioneered the main lords of the major armies went to that side to make contributions every year.

But this time, it seems that the main force has come to Jinmen Province, which is a bit unusual.

Of course, Li Qing is not too sure now, maybe there are just a little more people this year.

The banquet was held on the second floor, but it was still early, some young people from the Yu family had come, and none of the elders had arrived, so many young people gathered in small circles to chat. I didn't go in, so I ate alone on the edge with a plate of dim sum food.

It would be a little rude if it was at a high-end reception, but it is normal for young people to have a reception like this. A lot of young people who are not good at socializing are eating like him.

For him, this is actually just a formality, to give face to the local landlord Yu family. After all, he has to hang around on other people's land. For a long time, some people will continue to play here for ten years. Maybe it will be possible in the future If you ask them for help or something, if you are familiar with them now, you won't be embarrassed in the future.

It didn't take long before I ate three dim sums. Suddenly there was a loud noise from the door. Looking up at the door, a group of young handsome men and beautiful women walked in, surrounded by two middle-aged men and a mature lady.

Li Qing and those who ate around hurriedly put down their food, wiped their hands and stood up. The food can be eaten later, but it is impolite for the owner to continue eating when he comes over.

You can lie flat and rotten, but you can't lose the face of your family.

Unless you behave badly and leave the family ten years later, what you want to do at that time has nothing to do with the family.

The crowd flocked to the center, and one of the handsome middle-aged men stretched out his hand and pressed it. The hall suddenly fell silent, and said in a deep voice:

"I am Yu Lizhi. On behalf of the Yu clan, I welcome the elites from the empire to this banquet. The main purpose of this banquet is for everyone to get to know and communicate with each other. The other purpose is that the patriarch spent 10 civilization points a while ago to create a special It is a channel belonging to pioneering elites, and we invite you to join this channel."

As soon as the words fell, it could be seen that everyone was a little surprised, and Li Qing also showed surprise. At the same time, his perception far beyond ordinary people made him keenly aware that this year's development is indeed different from previous years.

Civilization points can only be obtained when there is a war between different player civilizations, either by causing a huge blow to the hostile civilization, or by doing things that are beneficial to the entire civilization.

As for the so-called channel, this does not need to be explained, and everyone understands it.

At the beginning, there is only one regional channel in each region. If you want to add a new regional channel, you need to use civilization points to communicate with the hidden system to increase it.

The system is just a synonym, it is only called the system because the rules of the new universe are digitized, and everything in the entire universe is digitized like a game.

If you change to the world of Xianxia, ​​it can be called the Dao of Heaven, and if you change to the world of fantasy, it can be called Gaia Consciousness, etc. The names are different, but the meanings are the same.

Just like Jinmen Province, there was only one regional channel at the beginning, and two to a dozen regional channels were added later, all of which were increased by the Yu family, the ruler of Jinmen Province, by consuming civilization points.

Of course, individual players can also add channels, for example, all legions must have a legion internal channel.

Here comes the important point, the more civilization points consumed to create a channel, the more people the channel can accommodate, the wider the coverage area, and the higher the encryption level of the channel.

Ordinary private channels such as legions can be established with a few civilization points, but this new channel consumes ten civilization points, which is an exaggeration.

Civilization points are very useful for big forces, and they are extremely difficult to obtain. Normally, it is enough to spend one point to create a channel, but now it costs ten points to create one, and personally pulls them into the channel. There must be something inside this.

Li Qing's mind turned quickly, he searched his memory, combined with the information he saw in his memory to deduce it, and quickly came to a conclusion:

"Either the Yu family will make some big moves, or the empire will make some big moves against Tianjin Starfield."

"Wait, is there any big move on the third Zutar star field between the Emperor's seat star field of the Fourth Empire and the second Tianjin star field?"

He pinched his chin and thought for a while, feeling that his guess was very close to the truth.

Located between the headquarters of the empire and the overseas province of Jinmen, the Zutar star field has a width of about 12,000 light-years, a length of about 7,000 light-years, and a thickness of 3,600 light-years. Most of the area is covered by a huge nebula, rich in The nebula containing microelectronics and strange radiation dust has a great impact on the electronic equipment of the battleship. The deeper it goes, the greater the impact, and it can even affect the navigation of the battleship.

It is precisely because of the influence of this radiation nebula covering more than 80% of the Zutar star field, it is obviously close to the mainland of the United Empire, but it has not been conquered. For thousands of years, no one has been able to do anything to anyone.

Li Qing guessed that the Imperial Senate might have felt that there was nothing they could do about the Bruvan United Civilization, so it was better to change the general direction and go south and open a passage between the Zutar star field.

Once a stable channel can be penetrated between the dust nebula, Jinmen Province, which is lonely overseas, will no longer be an overseas province, and the army can directly enter Jinmen Province through the Zutar star field, and travel in Jinmen The province serves as a springboard to conquer the second Tianjin star field and bring this huge star field under the rule of the empire.

With such a huge star field, more army lords will definitely be born, and maybe even a new star sea lord may be born.

The United Empire of Mankind is stronger, and it may be able to overwhelm the Bruwan United Civilization.

This road must be difficult to get through, otherwise I would have tried it a long time ago, but going north to the Bruwan United Civilization is even more difficult to fight. It has been fighting for thousands of years, consuming countless resources and losing an unknown number of warships, forcing the lords of the Senate Had to change strategy and retry the original abandoned plan.

The more Li Qing thought about it, the more he felt that his thoughts were very close to the truth.

With the awakening of the innate talent of the Son of the Stars, all innate attributes +20 points. Known knowledge infers changes in the situation.

The more information there is, the closer the inference is to the truth.

Maybe not as good as those legendary staff and famous ministers who are so wise and close to monsters. He is a real talent. He is deduced by combining powerful innate attributes with various information. It is equivalent to a humanoid computer, with strong reasoning and logic. But without the frequent flashes of inspiration from those legendary ministers, that's not what innate attributes can do.

But even so, it is still very strong, after all, the number of such legendary ministers is too small.

To establish a territory in the future, talents from all aspects are needed, and I hope to have the opportunity to find a real strong adviser.

Guessing is guessing, no matter what the truth is, this actually has little to do with Li Qing, at least not in the early stage.

He didn't have the resources of those direct descendants, so all he had to do in the early stage was to bury his head in making money.

Yu Lizhi didn't stay for long. After announcing the news, he stayed for a while, introduced them to a few members of the Yu clan, and then left.

"Tch, daddy tricked me into saying that the Pearl of the Yu family is here, but not only did he not come, but also those arrogances who were said to have the innate talent of the purple epic level did not come."

Li Qing heard someone complaining, turned around and saw a white-haired boy looking over, and said hello to himself:

"Cousin Li Qing!"

Li Qingqi said:

"You are?"

"Li Lie."

The white-haired boy added another sentence:

"My father is Li Lun."

"So it belongs to the second uncle, let's go together?"

"Let's go, the beauty from the Yu family hasn't come, so there's nothing to see."

Li Qing asked smoothly:

"What beauty from the Yu family?"

Li Lie showed surprise:

"Haven't you heard of the pearl of the Yu family? I heard that it is not only beautiful, but also awakened the innate talent of the purple epic level. It was born with a relic to accompany it. It was named by the head of the Yu family as a child of the family when it was born. The heir of the patriarch of a generation is a true born noble daughter!"

"Uh, I haven't heard of it."

Li Qing was quite surprised that she had never heard of the subconscious reincarnation of the Li family for eighteen years.

"You can try it!"

Li Lie said with a smile:

"This noble daughter of the Yu family is the next heir to the patriarch of the Yu family. It is impossible to marry outside. There is a high probability of recruiting a husband, and the husband she recruits should not be too strong. You don't have much chance in the family anyway, why don't you try to get in touch."
