It's a large-scale team activity similar to the one they used to gather the whole team to come up with two trillion star yuan to run a business. It happens once a year. Last year it was a business run. I don't know what it is this time.

There are still three months left for the event. It will take less than half a month to rush back to Jialan headquarters from here, so there is no need to wait.

Li Qing replied in the empty team channel:

"I'll be back on time!"

With the strength of their team and their relationship with the team commander, the large-scale team activities they have prepared are quite worth looking forward to.

Turning off the communication, Li Qing let out a breath and was about to go back to the outpost to buy some weapon accessories and arm the two repaired cruisers, six destroyers and twenty-six frigates.

In addition, after half a year of accumulation, his many shipbuilding skills and modification skills have all made huge breakthroughs.

Shipbuilding skills have been upgraded to level 11, and destroyers, elite raptors, and excellent black hawk-class frigates can be built. The shipyard in the palm universe started construction as early as two months ago, and two batches of 20 destroyers have been built.

In addition, his modification technology has made great progress, and he can now modify standard Tornado-class destroyers.

The visible progress and the approaching end point made Li Qing high-spirited and full of energy.

On this trip back, in addition to arming two cruisers and destroyers to participate in large-scale team activities, when the team activities are over, he plans to sell all the frigates built by the shipyard to save more money and purchase a batch of frigates for base expansion.

Industrial equipment, as well as a large number of various ship weapon accessories blueprints and materials.

He is planning to put on the agenda the manufacture of weapons and general accessories for various ships, as well as thrusters, jump engines and other accessories.

To put it bluntly, he felt that there was something missing in shipbuilding alone. The densely packed bare ships existed in the universe in his hand and could not be used just by looking at them.

If a warship can be equipped from the hull to weapons and other configurations in one stop, the warship can be ready to go into battle as soon as it is built. Not only can you make more money by selling it, but these ships can stay in the palm of your hand and you can use them immediately when you are short of warships.

Pull it out and put it to use.

This is also the only way to go. With such a large dock array, we can't just build bare boats all the time.

In addition, he plans to expand the base in the warehouse area inside the palm universe. I can't say that he can't afford to develop it all, but he can still afford to develop one floor and build a large industrial area and a large living area.

Not to mention the industrial area, the living area is mainly for shipbuilding engineers and clones. He plans to build a habitable layer on a certain floor of the warehouse area and then cultivate a large number of clones.

High-intelligence jobs such as shipbuilding engineers can only be made by natural persons. This money can only be spent to recruit natural persons before obtaining the permission to immigrate natural persons. There is no way, but various clone crews, clone workers, clone ground troops, etc.

, this is destined to consume a lot in the future. I don’t know how much it will cost to keep buying. It is better to build a livable city and cultivate it myself.

Compared with the strict permission requirements for immigrating natural persons, the requirements for simply cultivating clones are much lower.

First, you need to build a livable colonial base, or a space station, and then obtain human cloning cultivation licensing laws issued by major provinces, and then have enough capital.

He has a livable place. Even if he doesn't use the livable layer of the warehouse in the palm universe, he can still apply for it by using the small ecological circle in the base he established.

Although it is ridiculous to use such a small place to apply for the creation of clones, whether it is ridiculous or not is another matter. As long as the reason for the application can be established.

As for the human cloning cultivation licensing law, it generally requires a certain level of reputation in major provinces. This is not difficult. The reputation of Jinmen Province is not high, but his reputation in the expeditionary force is quite high. He was a businessman before.

Each time it was in his name, the reputation accumulated now is not much different. If I work hard to increase the reputation a few times, it will probably be almost the same.

As for the final capital...

There are two costs required here. One is the cost of establishing a genetic laboratory and gene bank, and the cost of cultivating clones.

Another point is to purchase a mother chip for human cloning breeding technology. Only with this mother chip technology can we cultivate unlimited clones without restrictions.

It is worth mentioning that if he cultivates clones now, he can only use them for his own use and cannot sell them, so he needs a clone sales license.

For example, in Jinmen, generally only important members of the Jinmen Yu family can sell licenses to make huge profits.

It's a huge profit. As long as the breeding base is built, it can cost a few dollars to cultivate clones. The total cost of adding skills and brain plug-ins is tens of thousands. Any clone worker can be sold for one hundred thousand, and these clones are cultivated in batches.

It's all worth hundreds of thousands and millions, which is a huge profit.

No matter where you are, monopoly is a huge profit.

On the fifth day after receiving the message from the team, Li Qing arranged the matters here and sealed the exit of the base that had been evacuated on the first floor.

There are not many people coming to this galaxy itself. When the exit is sealed, the dust rises, and the radar cannot scan it at all.

I don't know what dangers there will be on the lower level of the base, so I just want to go back now to make more preparations and dig again when I come back.

The base was also briefly arranged. After recovering all the battleship wreckage collected by the industrial ships, three destroyers and ten frigates were left to defend the base. He set off with the remaining two destroyers and nine frigates.

Embarked on the return journey.

Going back is much faster than when we came here. There is no need to explore or anything. Once you leave the star gate, you can jump to a jump, but you can't jump to sublight speed.

The nearest galaxies cannot jump, so they can only pass through them at sub-light speed. When the interference from the nebulae across several galaxies is reduced, they will immediately start to jump back.

In just eleven days, a fleet consisting of two destroyers and eight frigates appeared in the Jialan Galaxy.

A frigate was surrounded by a pirate fleet patrolling at the entrance of the wormhole while exploring the path, and died heroically.

This is unavoidable. The fleet is too small to dare to go directly through the wormhole. Two ships must be sent to investigate first. If there is a pirate fleet next to the wormhole, it will be easy to seduce or divert the large pirate fleet.

There are risks, and the probability of injury is not small.

Returning to the Jialan Galaxy is not much different from when we left before. There are still two months until the team's large-scale event. It's still early, and everyone hasn't rushed back yet.

Neither Li Lie nor Li Qi were there, but Li Zhenghai in their team was at Jialan Star Castle. Li Qing asked him and learned that Li Lie, Li Qi and others were now at the base north of the Star Castle, and sent him the coordinates of the base.

After walking around the Jialan Star Castle and reporting the news, the fleet set off again to the outpost.

It took four days to jump back to the outpost system. The fleet was parked in a system on the edge of the outpost, and only one destroyer sailed into the outpost.

The warship docked in Star City, connected to the Expeditionary Force trading network, and first sold some of the trophies in hand.

The third-generation laser cannon manufacturing blueprints that can be used 25 times are sold for a unit price of 350,000, totaling 8.75 million.

A total of 4.7 units of star core material, 500 million units, a total of 2.35 billion stars.

A total of 900 Haiyan-class frigates have been accumulated in eight months. At the outpost, there are 25 million bare ships. The premium is increased by 25%, totaling 22.5 billion star yuan.

After deducting the cost of 14 million * 900 ships, the total is 12.6 billion, resulting in a net profit of 9.9 billion star dollars.

There are a total of 20 destroyers. The unit price of Jinmen is 150 million. The premium is also increased by 25%. A single ship costs 187.5 million star yuan, and the total of 20 destroyers is 3.75 billion star yuan.

After deducting the cost of 105 million * 20 ships, a total of 2.1 billion is achieved, with a net profit of 1.65 billion star dollars.

Taken together, this trip earned a total of 29.4875 billion star dollars. After deducting costs and deducting various wages and maintenance expenses for the eight months, the total was about 2.1 billion, resulting in a net profit of 11.8875 billion star dollars.

At this point, Li Qing now has 58.9738 billion star dollars.

As with the previous plan, a large number of weapon accessories blueprints of all levels were purchased through the Expeditionary Forces Trading Network, ranging from S small slot laser cannons, electromagnetic guns, machine guns, P slot point defenses, M medium weapons, to L large laser cannons

With electromagnetic gun and L slot main gun.

And a large number of s small, m medium, l large general slots.

The reactors, hyperspace engines, thrusters and radar sensors, combat computers, various A-type functional slot accessories, etc. can range from frigates to cruisers.

From blueprints to construction materials, buy the boat complete.

In addition to the ship itself, a set of standard Haiyan frigates requires about 13.5 million yuan for a complete set of drawings. The total cost of all materials is about 81 million yuan, a total of about 94.5 million yuan. Including the frigate blueprint and shipbuilding materials, about 14 million yuan, plus shipbuilding

The salary of engineers and the salary of arsenal engineers are about 1.2 million to 10.25 million, totaling 119.95 million.

The total cost of renovating a top-of-the-line fifth-generation technology frigate is about 155 million. If you build it yourself, you can save 35.05 million.

If there is no modification, the total cost will drop to about 142 million. After deducting various costs, you can earn about 32 million.

Well, to be precise, only he can earn so much. Other players with private shipyards cannot earn so much even if they build everything from ships to weapon universal slots and various functional slots and accessories.

The reason is simple. Other players do not have high-end shipyards like him. It normally takes two months to build a frigate. He only takes one month, saving a full month's salary totaling 11.45 million.

But it’s still very profitable.

So after returning from this trip, Li Qing directly recruited ten groups of arsenal engineers.

This kind of arsenal engineer can operate the arsenal machine to manufacture various weapons, various general accessories, and then the ship's reactor, jump engine, thruster, radar and combat system, etc., including all x slots and below of a ship.

Regular accessories.

There are two types of arsenal engineers, one can build fifth-generation weapon accessories at level one, and the other can only build fourth-generation and below, and their wages are also slightly different.

Chief engineer of the arsenal, monthly salary 1 million/1.5 million.

Senior engineer in arsenal, monthly salary 150,000/250,000.

Ordinary engineers in the arsenal have a monthly salary of 30,000/50,000.

In the front are ordinary engineers of the fourth generation and below, and in the back are senior engineers who can build fifth-generation weapon accessories.

Li Qing recruited all senior engineers from the latter group. Each group was composed of 1 chief engineer, 5 senior engineers, and 150 ordinary engineers. The monthly salary was 10.25 million. Ten groups were recruited in total, which cost 102.5 million per month.

salary.

They can complete the manufacturing of all accessories for a frigate every month and all accessories for a destroyer in two months.

That is to say, after recruiting ten groups, as long as there are enough blueprints and materials, ten top-of-the-line frigates that have completed all configurations can be shipped out every month. If all configurations are energy weapons, as long as there are enough crew members, they can be launched immediately.

Come out and fight.

This means that before long, both his earning power and his war potential will be qualitatively improved.

Think about it, in just one year, you can have thousands of fifth-generation fully equipped frigates in the palm of your hand, and you can pull them out for combat at any time. What does this mean?

And this is just the beginning. As long as the blueprints and shipbuilding materials can keep up, it will be no problem to build tens of thousands of ships.

In the foreseeable future, salary and maintenance are no longer big problems that bother him. Even if he cannot expand wantonly now, as his accumulation becomes stronger and stronger, it will not take many years to make enough money, and his basic market will gradually expand.

As it expands, it will gradually reach the point where the monthly income reaches tens of billions or even tens of billions.

When original capital is not a problem, the speed of expansion will be extremely exaggerated. At that time, the only thing that can limit its development is market restrictions.

After all, he can't possibly capture the entire market.

When he produces a certain number of warships every month, he will definitely attract the attention of other arms dealers. The largest arms dealers in Jinmen and Zutar are the Yu family. It is impossible for him to win over others. At most, he will be squeezed to death.

If other individual players or arms dealers who are not strong enough behind the scenes share a piece of meat in this big market, they will never be able to squeeze out those big arms dealers.

There is no way, the rules are set by them, and they have the ability to overturn the table and rewrite the rules at any time. Even if he has a comprehensive strength comparable to that of a military leader, he still cannot defeat someone else.

"All right!"

Li Qing felt that he was thinking too much and going too far. Even if that day came, it would be twenty or thirty years later, and he might not even be in Jinmen at that time.

If he really had a strength comparable to that of the military lords and giants, he must have formed his own fleet to leave Jinmen and enter more distant star fields to explore.

Zutar is located between Jinmen and the belly of the United Human Empire, and is covered by nebulae. Its development potential is limited, at least in his opinion. If he wants to develop his own territory, it will definitely not be here. This is just his early stage.

Where you started, you will definitely have to change the place after you gain momentum.

Either go north to join the Bruvan civilization and fight against it, or go south to the Timor star field to deal with the Kelzaka star sea empire civilization that lies between the Perseus spiral arm and the Milky Way central astrolabe star field.

No matter which civilization is defeated, the territory of the entire United Human Empire will be greatly expanded, and eating the corpse of any alien civilization that is not inferior to human civilization will make the overall strength of human civilization much stronger in a short period of time, and oneself

You will definitely eat the fattest piece of meat.

Li Qing stayed at the outpost for half a month. He endured the fact that the prices here at the outpost were 50% higher than those at Jinmen and purchased two cruisers*300 clone crews and 20 destroyers*100 clones.

Crew, 50 frigates*50 clone crews, a total of 60020002500=5100 clone crews.
Chapter completed!
