On this trip, there were four Supremes and two Rank As.
Qu Jianlei originally thought that there was no need to go to four supremes, three would be enough, leaving one to take charge Gemini Star.
But none of the three were willing to stay, and Qu Jianlei was even less likely to stay - at least Xiao Hu had no one to command.
In addition, Hua Xiezhi and Bentley also strongly requested to follow.
So the six people left to guard the home are Fourth Boss, You You and Tian Yin, and Paradise is Xiang Xue, Xiao Qin and Claire.
Xiang Xue also strongly requested to join, but once she participates, her guarding power will be too little.
The six people left on Unlucky Starship. After arriving at Lost Star, they transferred to 8384 Ship.
Also leaving with them were Unlucky Starship, 3344 Ship, a standard warship, and two Armed Merchant Ship.
The repaired Aerospace Carrier and Escort Ship continue to be hidden on Lost Star.
The six people transferred to 8384 Ship, and then jumped together as a group.
To this day, Qu Jianlei still remembers the scene when he led two large groups of damaged starships to jump.
It was earth-shattering, and a large space became unstable.
But this time, it was okay. Six neat starships could pass through as a group at once without any problem.
The place where they jumped was quite remote, and they encountered no trouble after coming out.
But because it was so remote, it was already half a month later when we arrived at Asteroid Belt.
8384 sneaked up next to Abandoned Mining Planet and spent about ten days.
The reality is very speechless. The abandoned ore planet where Qu Jianlei hid supplies was directly... exploded! It was really blown up, and there were wreckage everywhere, leaving everyone speechless.
The stored supplies are gone! Qu Jianlei Because I was mentally prepared, although I felt distressed, it was nothing.
What he was wondering was whether the other party destroyed this planet accidentally or deliberately destroyed it to vent his anger.
At this moment, Big Head Butterfly started spinning, "Discovering energy monitors, light sensor monitors, heat sensor monitors, etc..."
"Tsk," Qu Jianlei smacked his lips. It was okay. Our starship was still more than one million kilometers away from there.
The stealth capability of 8384 is not very strong, but these monitors are also passive types and their power is not very high.
At this distance, even if the monitor can detect the starship, it will not have very detailed information.
But then again, there weren't many similar monitors in Skyhook Star Region, at least he didn't observe many usually.
In other words, people who put down their monitors take this place very seriously.
Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment and spoke, "Exit 800,000 kilometers and conduct a comprehensive active scan."
This kind of active scanning cannot be hidden from those monitors, but it doesn't matter, as long as the other party can't perceive you clearly.
The key is to test to see if there are any hidden warships nearby.
The detection equipment of 8384 is not very strong, at least slightly inferior to the military equipment, and the detection is not particularly accurate.
However, with the 20 million Calculation Unit, we should be able to find some clues.
The scan lasted for more than an hour, and no abnormalities were found. Qu Jianlei made a quick decision and decided to leave.
Then he let the other five people board 3344 Ship, while he took 8384 Ship to Lan Yun Market.
Mu Yu wanted to stop him, but Paranoid advised her to forget it - "Don't ask about the matter decided by the boss."
In fact, he knew how stubborn Hongjingtian was, and would not put himself in danger unless necessary.
Old Lady Jia also said, "We can deal with him more easily if we are outside."
She is the last person who wants anything to happen to Qu Jianlei, but to be able to make such a decision shows that trusting teammates also requires a big heart.
Qu Jianlei does have his plan, but this time he went to Azure Cloud, and he had no choice but to take a risk.
When he was far away from the market, he started the active scanning of the starship.
This obviously unfriendly behavior immediately attracted the attention of the market.
But looking at the object that sent the scan, the managers of the bazaar can understand: the co-author is this starship! In the past two years, the Hongjingtian Team incident has caused a lot of noise, and even the entire Asteroid Belt has been reorganized.
Five of the Supreme Fugitives alone were captured and one was killed. The name of this team really deserves to be as loud as possible.
But even with the strong cooperation of the military, Department of Anomalous Affairs has never been able to find this team, and the search efforts have only recently been slightly reduced.
But at this time, that famous junk ship... actually appeared again? The first feeling many people have is: How dare they show up openly? However, thinking about it again, with the arrogance of these guys, this is really normal.
8384 scanned and found no standard warship, so Qu Jianlei issued a landing request.
It didn't take long for his request to be approved - without the support of the military, who would provoke such a Madman?
The tattered 8384 Ship descended, and the nearby starships were so frightened that they quickly moved away.
Qu Jianlei connected to the local network and sent out an online task.
First, he has to solve the problem of Protection Card last time.
Although he avenged the two families, after killing Baron, the team disappeared without a trace, and there was a suspicion of "weak successors."
This time he wants to give everyone an explanation - at least for the first two orders, he has to give the other party an explanation.
As soon as the task was sent out, someone came over, not the master of suffering, but the person entrusted by the master of suffering.
Previously, Lan Yun Market had also been subject to a focused search by the military, and those victims were even targeted.
In view of this, all the people left behind by the suffering master withdrew. Before leaving, he entrusted others to help wait for news and deliver messages.
As the intensity of the search has decreased, military ships have evacuated, but spies and developing informants should be left behind.
But obviously, all the large troops have withdrawn, and the remaining San Gua Liang Zao certainly don't have the guts to confront Hongjingtian Team.
Qu Jianlei, wearing Rock Armor, stepped off the starship and chatted with the clients.
He first introduced what he had gained - even if the other party should already know it.
Then he said that one Armed Merchant Ship was paid to the biggest sufferer, and another one was sold to the second sufferer at a 40% discount.
However, several clients unanimously said that the compensation would be waived, as long as you can help vent their anger.
Several victims must have come to a unified understanding - at least Hongjingtian stood up for everyone, and this matter was worth it.
As long as Hongjingtian Team is not caught, if others want to coerce them, they must think twice before doing so.
In fact, their minimum requirement is to prove that the Protection Card they purchased did not pay IQ tax, which is basically enough.
Qu Jianlei said that it is necessary to compensate one merchant ship, and the other merchant ship... If it is not possible, 50% off!
However, the clients still refused in unison: the victims themselves had paid insurance.
The insurance company will pay some compensation for related losses. How dare the victim take advantage of Hongjingtian?
Capital is indeed greedy, but in the face of forces that dare to challenge the military fleet, capital also has the instinct to avoid risks.
As for the acquisition of the starship in the hands of Qu Jianlei... what should I say? Even if it's 50% off, it always has to be paid in full.
However, almost all starships purchased here are paid in installments, and there are very few people who buy starships in full.
This has nothing to do with whether you have money or not. Those who sell starships strongly recommend this payment method.
Those who really want to buy the starship in full will be met with a blank stare or even artificial difficulties - what do you want us to earn? It is said that among the forces that purchase starships, many have great backgrounds, and some are even subsidiaries of the consortium themselves.
But it's useless. The consortium is responsible to its shareholders, so what about its subsidiaries? It's time to suck blood!
There is a lot of talk in it, but it mainly involves interests.
The client said that if you can accept installment payment, this matter can be discussed.
Of course Qu Jianlei cannot accept this. How can he have the time to Collect Money on time?
So he pointed out: Installment payment is only for banks or consortiums, and they are responsible for advancing the payment.
As a seller, I will only make one-time Collect Money. Is this okay?
He really had no problem with what he said, and his understanding of the financial industry was passable.
However, the client said: You deal directly with the victim, there is no intermediary bank or consortium! Moreover, you did not have a bank partner before, and now that your identity is sensitive, no one will be brave enough to challenge the military's bottom line.
The key is that the forces of the suffering masters are not too big, otherwise they would not be blackmailed.
These small and medium-sized forces want to purchase starships at full price, but their strength does not allow it.
Not to mention that Hongjingtian Team is being strongly targeted. Who among the small and medium-sized forces is willing to get involved in this Vortex?
The client carefully explained for a long time, and Qu Jianlei finally understood why he couldn't even sell cheap goods.
Seeing that his plan was about to fail, his face tightened.
"I don't care about this. No matter what, I want to sell a Armed Merchant Ship, even if it is 50% off."
This request is a bit unreasonable, and there is a suspicion of forced buying and selling. However... Is the Hongjingtian team reasonable? And to be fair, although he asked for full payment, he was selling it at a 50% discount, which was not a bad condition.
At least I'm not trying to extort benefits.
In fact, in the eyes of several clients, the other party wanted to express their determination to maintain Protection Card in this way! "Actually, everyone sees your attitude towards Protection Card... There is no need to do this anymore."
If it weren't for the fulfillment of the promise of "protection", the other party might not have collided with the Department of Anomalous Affairs fleet led by Baron.
You know, before Hongjingtian took action, Baron had already placed bounties on this team all over the star field.
I just want to get some money to make up for it! Qu Jianlei said expressionlessly, "This is non-negotiable!"
Hongjingtian Team is really particular! Several clients exchanged glances and then expressed tactfully.
"But now... we can't raise that much money. We are only responsible for spreading the word."
"It doesn't matter," Qu Jianlei waved his hand upon hearing this, "As long as you agree to this condition."
He really doesn't need to sell the starship immediately. He doesn't know how many fierce battles he will go through this time. One more starship means more combat power.
As long as the other party can approve the transaction, it will be considered a success - selling a starship is really difficult.
Instead, he asked, "Lan Yun Market actually didn't refuse my landing. Why?"
