Chapter 683 Preparation

Su Mo was also very surprised when he heard what Qian Chengxue said. He said, "It's only been a few years, and the federation has made great strides in all aspects. Could it be that the output of those few resource stars has exploded?"

It's no wonder that Su Mo was so surprised. Although the interstellar channel is jointly maintained by the five allied countries, the resources and manpower it costs are still astonishing.

Qian Chengxue explained to Su Mo with a smile: "You probably don't pay attention to the development of the federal frontline. I said that the frontline is not the few insect stars we attacked at the beginning."

"where is that?"

Su Mo was even more surprised.

"It's completely out of the radiation range of the city of star rings. Negative star sea, there are five planets beyond your imagination. There are inexhaustible resources on it. Walking around, you can also find a large number of leftover wreckage. If you are lucky, you can make a fortune. Of course, that area is also a burial ground. And the Federation is now building a watchman base on one of the planets called Ceres, and that is the front line."

Qian Chengxue explained in detail.

Su Mo also became more and more surprised the more he listened.

At this time, the deep voice of the fake owner and devourer rang in Su Mo's mind.

"The real Cup of Heaven has begun. The information Qian Chengxue told you is right or wrong. Ceres is just the guardian satellite of Negative Star in the center. But this also means that you have officially entered this big stage, City of Star Rings Played a good hand."

Su Mo took a deep breath after listening to the counterfeit owner, Devourer, and said to Qian Chengxue, "So, we want to transport the goods to Ceres?"

"No, we can't get on Ceres. Even if a Tier 4 ship enters that area, it may be shot down. If there is no accident, we just need to escort it to the largest supply base behind the watch base, the Freedom Fortress base."

Qian Chengxue thought about it and said to Su Mo.

"There are fortresses in the Federation?"

Su Mo was even more surprised.

"Although it's called a fortress, it's not exactly a fortress, because it hasn't been completed yet. I know some of the inside story. This is an agreement reached between the Federation and the remnants of the Hongji Empire. Jialan and the others helped the Federation choose a The asteroid of high-purity iron ore is used as a foundation to build a supply base on it. And use it as a foundation to transform the entire planet and prepare to build the first fortress of the Federation."

Qian Chengxue chatted with Su Mo while eating.

Su Mo couldn't help giving a thumbs up: "The plan of the chairman of the council is indeed very bold, but it is also very forward-looking."

"Over the past few years, the Federation has undergone earth-shaking changes every day. In fact, if you don't pay attention to current events for a few months, you may lose touch with reality."

Qian Chengxue said with a smile.

"Um."

Su Mo nodded in response.

"Stop talking about that, let's have a toast together."

Sun Li ran over with a wine glass and said with a ruddy face.

"Okay, if you don't get drunk, you won't return."

Qian Chengxue replied in a good mood.

At noon the next day, Su Mo and the others arrived at Interstellar Port No. 72 with their suitcases.

It's still so lively here.

"Which ship is ours?"

Su Mo looked around and asked curiously.

"That ship."

Qian Chengxue pointed to an old medium-sized transport ship ahead and said.

Su Mo looked at the medium-sized transport ship, which looked like a second-hand ship, and his face twitched. He said, "Well, we won't be driving this ship to the front line later, will we?"

"yes."

Qian Chengxue said while leading Su Mo and the others forward.

"Don't you consider changing to a better ship?"

Su Mo said politely.

He originally thought that no matter how bad it was, it would have to be a large transport ship.

"There is no way to replace it for the time being. All my funds have been invested in stocking up. But don't worry, besides this transport ship, the company also has 2 frigates."

Qian Chengxue explained to Su Mo.

"That's okay, what about the mecha?"

"For mechas, I will spare some money to purchase a third-generation machine. In addition, the company originally had three black steels and ten iron guards, which should be enough."

Qian Chengxue explained to Su Mo.

"After winning the bid, there is no advance payment?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

"Yes, 20% of the purchase price will be paid in advance after winning the bid, but most of the money will be used to prepare the goods, and there is no surplus at all. As for the remaining money, we will transport the goods to the front-line supply base, and the Federation directly The supply depot allocated us equivalent resources."

Qian Chengxue explained.

Hearing this, Su Mo said speechlessly: "This group of people really know how to play, so they don't even have to transport the resources back by themselves."

"You're right, but just like this, it's the sweet pastry that everyone wants to grab. Because the star coins in this world are too important. To put it bluntly, the current currency of the Federation itself is also You can only buy some food and daily necessities. Everyone looks at Star Coins, because Star Coins can buy too many magical things, such as the necessary genetic medicines. You must know that so far, there are still a large number of people in the Federation who have not injected With genetic medicine, the lifespan is still not high."

Qian Chengxue explained.

"I remember that type I genetic medicine is not very cheap, why hasn't it become popular yet?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

"It used to be a special price, but now it has returned to the original price. The cheapest type I gene medicine costs 10,000 star coins, and the best one costs 100,000 star coins."

Qian Chengxue said.

"Increased by a hundred times?"

Su Mo couldn't help taking a breath, isn't this a naked robbery.

In addition, Su Mo suddenly remembered that the batch of gene stock solution he disposed of at the beginning was a big loss!

He inexplicably felt a little heartache.

"So now whoever can develop genetic medicines will be very profitable, but unfortunately, the Federation strictly prohibits the development of private companies. Only the Federation can produce genetic medicines, and any genetic medicines produced privately are considered illegal products."

Qian Chengxue explained solemnly.

"Why?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

"The profit is too high, and it's easy to make people think. After all, this kind of injection is to be injected into the human body. If something goes wrong, it will be troublesome. Also, this is related to the federal conscription benefits. Anyone who enlists in the army can receive Type I injections for free." Gene medicine, its family members can enjoy a subsidized gene medicine of 100 star coins."

"I see."

Su Mo probably understood what was going on when he heard this.

Not long after, Su Mo and the others boarded a medium-sized transport ship.

The entire ship slowly took off from the interstellar port and flew towards the earth star.

In the early morning of the next day, a medium-sized transport ship slowly landed on the Imperial Capital Interplanetary Airport.

The exit door opens.

Su Mo and others walked down from above.

"I'm back, I don't know why, no matter how good the Star Ring City is, I still feel comfortable returning to Earth Star."

"That's because you don't have a sense of belonging over there. If you have your own permanent real estate in the Star Ring City, you won't feel that way."

Qian Chengxue said with a smile.

"You're right, save money later, and then go to the top to buy extravagantly, where are we going now?"

Su Mo said in agreement.

"Go to the factory and see how the production is going."

Qian Chengxue thought for a while and said.

"Then let's go, I just haven't been to the company's factory yet."

Su Mo replied with some expectation.

"Well, let's go, the car is in the waiting area."

Qian Chengxue is not the kind of person who procrastinates.

Not long after, Su Mo and the others came to the waiting area, where there were a hundred flying cars parked.

Some passengers who came to take the ride saw this scene and also whispered.

"Which big group do these cars belong to?"

"You are stupid, look at the signs on the car, these are all from Chenxi Group."

"You're talking about the newly emerging giant Chenxi Company. I heard that their company's market valuation skyrocketed yesterday."

"Can it not be raised? They are dark horses. They won a big bid in the federal public bidding in one fell swoop. They will make a lot of money."

"It's a pity that this is a private company and it's not listed, otherwise I would definitely buy its shares hard."

Su Mo couldn't help but glanced at the people who were talking, and said to Qian Chengxue with a smile after getting in the car.

"Now you're a celebrity."

Qian Chengxue shook his head and said: "These are irrelevant, drive, let's go."

"good!"

The driver in charge of driving immediately started the flying car and drove out.

Qian Chengxue introduced to Su Mo: "Our current factory is located in the industrial park on the outskirts of the imperial capital. Although the factory is our own, the land belongs to the Federation, covering a total area of ​​200,000 square meters."

"The scale is not small."

Su Mo said in surprise.

"There are a hundred semi-automated production lines for different products."

Qian Chengxue said.

"Why not a fully automatic production line?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

"The federal government does not allow it. The federal government has regulations. Except for extremely special industries, all factories are not allowed to use fully automatic production lines. This is to create more jobs. If all industries are fully automated, it will not be so much. labor force, which I agree with very much.”

Qian Chengxue explained to Su Mo.

"Makes sense."

It didn't take long for the flying car to arrive at the gate of the industrial park Chenxi Group's factory.

I saw that Chen Meng and others had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw the car stopped, they went up to meet him.

"Sister Xue!"

Qian Chengxue came down and greeted everyone with a smile: "Everyone has worked hard."

After Su Mo got off the car, he immediately saw Qin Wang in the crowd.

"Qin Wang!"

"Brother Su Mo, when did you come back?"

Qin Wangxin came forward to give Su Mo a hug.

Chen Meng and others also noticed Su Mo at this time, and they were also very surprised: "Su Mo is back?"

Qian Chengxue coughed and said: "Everyone listen to me, I will make a brief announcement now. From today on, what Su Mo said is what I said, understand?"

"clear!"

Although Chen Meng and the others were very surprised, they responded immediately.

"Well, how is the production in the factory now?"

Qian Chengxue asked straight to the point.

"Sister Xue, take a look inside. After we learned that you won the bid, we filled up the production capacity immediately. In addition, all raw material orders were issued and signed immediately."

Chen Meng introduced Qian Chengxue and the others as they walked in.

"How long will it take to be ready?"

Qian Chengxue nodded slightly and asked.

"We have prepared a large amount of goods before, so it can be fully prepared in half a month at most."

Chen Meng said with certainty.

Su Mo who was following at the side heard this, and asked suspiciously: "You started stocking up before you won the bid? Wouldn't it be miserable if you didn't win the bid?"

"I've also considered this issue, but it doesn't matter. Even if I don't win, the goods in the warehouse can still be sold. After all, these goods are just needed now, but the price may not be so good, and it won't make much money. It takes a lot of time to process.”

Qian Chengxue explained to Su Mo.

"That's what you say, but it's still too rash. You put all the cash flow in it, and it's easy to go wrong."

Su Mo said.

"Okay, not next time."

Qian Chengxue nodded, she knew that Su Mo was doing it for her own good.

Soon Su Mo and the others came to the transparent viewing area above the production room.

Through the glass of the partition, one can see the brand-new machines inside are being mass-produced.

A girl wearing a sterile protective suit is sorting out semi-finished products, performing a series of production processes such as screening and trimming, and everything is in order.

Su Mo looked at this scene, turned to Qian Chengxue and said.

"How many employees do we have in total?"

"There are more than 200,000 people, all of whom are elderly. Although the company has been recruiting people these years, there are not many newcomers who actually come in, because the competition for talents is too fierce."

"take it easy."

Su Mo is in a good mood.

At this moment, Qian Chengxue's cell phone rang.

She took a look at the phone, picked it up, and walked aside.

"Father."

Su Mo stood where he was, looking at the many production employees, and couldn't help thinking.

In fact, it's no wonder that Qianchengxue is working so hard, despite the fact that the products produced by Chenxi Group are quite good. Now that the times are advancing so fast, if you can't make a fortune when you can make money, it won't be long before the times improve, and you may be eliminated.

How can we raise so many brothers and sisters?

Su Mo more or less felt the pressure on Qian Chengxue.

He couldn't help thinking about the cargo transportation. According to the information Qian Chengxue told him, although the official interstellar waterway is safe, there must be hidden dangers.

The problem is that he seems to have almost spent all the money in his hand, where can he get a decent weapon?

Su Mo was also in a bit of trouble for a while.

At this moment, Qian Chengxue came back, she looked at Su Mo with a pensive face and asked doubtfully.

"What is Su Mo thinking?"

"No, I'm thinking about something, how about you? Did you encounter something?"

Su Mo recovered and asked.

"It's nothing. My master knows that I'm going back to the planet Earth, so let me go home for dinner. You can go with me."

Qian Chengxue asked with some expectation.

When Su Mo heard this, his thoughts were a little confused and he said, "Your master told you to go home for dinner, did you go to the Lin family?"

"Yes, don't you want to?"

Qian Chengxue nodded in response.

"No."

The corner of Su Mo's mouth twitched, remembering the first time he saw Lin Yaotian before, he beat him up, it was nothing at all. But when Su Mo thought that the gossip news might be true, the master might become his father. Wouldn't that be his father-in-law? The more he thought about it, the more it hurt him.

"Then it's settled. We'll go have dinner after I arrange things here."

Qian Chengxue immediately settled down.

Seeing Qian Chengxue so happy, Su Mo could only bite the bullet and reply.

"good."

Of course, he really didn't want to go.

"Then I'll arrange things first, and you can take a stroll."

After Qian Chengxue gave her instructions, she left.

Su Mo was wandering alone in the factory. At this moment, Su Mo's phone vibrated.

He picked it up and took a look, and a text message popped up.

"The weather is very good today. How is the weather over there? Why don't you reply to my message? Let me tell you good news. My father's illness has improved significantly. I will be able to go back soon."

Su Mo looked at this message and fell into deep thought.

After a long time, Su Mo edited a message and went back.

"Sorry, I've been on an interstellar voyage before, and my phone couldn't receive your message. I just came back recently, but I may have to go on another voyage soon. Say hello to uncle for me."

"It's okay, I guess you're going on an interstellar voyage, as long as you're fine."

"Well, thank you, I still have something to do, let's talk about it later."

After Su Mo sent the message, he let out a long sigh of relief.

In the evening, Qian Chengxue drove a silver flying car, carrying Su Mo towards the high wall of the imperial capital.

Su Mo looked at the scenery outside the window.

The night scene of the imperial capital is more prosperous than the daytime.

Su Mo coughed and tried to ask: "Xue'er, let me ask you a question. What's the situation between you and the Lin family? Your master can't really be your real father, right?"

Qian Chengxue showed a complex expression and said: "Actually, my master is my real father. When I found out about this, I was shocked and felt incredible."

When Su Mo heard this, his expression was extremely exciting.

"What's the matter."

"It's actually like this. My biological mother's status in the Lin family was not very stable before. She gave birth to a daughter in the first birth, and it was difficult to gain a foothold in the family. And my adoptive mother was a humble maid. After entering the Ye family, she has been unwelcome. , had a private affair with the head of the family, and gave birth to a son. My mother and biological mother were classmates, one was afraid of dying and the other was afraid of unstable status, so they exchanged after discussion."

Qian Chengxue said in a low voice.

In fact, Qian Chengxue also believed it to be true after opening the gemstone pendant left by my adoptive mother and discovering the last words of my adoptive mother inside.

When Su Mo heard this, his heart was also very complicated.

After thinking about it for a while, he understood the reason, one needed a son to stabilize his position. The other thought that his son would not be welcomed at home and was afraid of being killed, so he might as well exchange it with his best friend to give him a better future.

A seemingly absurd move, but it is reality.

But Qian Chengxue became the most ridiculous victim among them.

"Your master found out?"

"Well, he found out later. But at that time, the deal was done, and there was no way to expose the matter, so he became my master."

Qian Chengxue said with a deep sigh.

"Why did this matter suddenly break through?"

Su Mo asked with some doubts.

"The main reason is that I left the Ye family. My master felt that since the Ye family didn't want him, he had nothing to say, so he took me back."

"In that case, your master seems to be really good."

Su Mo felt more and more guilty, and at the same time felt a little guilty. This time, he was in big trouble.

"Actually, my master has been very kind to me since I was a child, let's not talk about that."

Qian Chengxue squeezed out a smile and said.

"Well, that Xue'er, I accidentally started fighting with your master before. He shouldn't still hold grudges, right?"

Su Mo asked with some anxiety.

When Qian Chengxue heard this, don't show a smile: "It's okay, he won't be angry, but he thinks you are pretty good."

"real?"

Su Mo felt a little relieved when he heard this.

"Yes, but that"

Qian Chengxue suddenly hesitated to speak.

"What's the matter? If you have something to say, don't worry about it."

Su Mo asked suspiciously.

"That my biological mother may not be easy to get along with, I hope you don't care too much."

Qian Chengxue hesitated, and finally talked to Su Mo.

Su Mo frowned slightly. From Qian Chengxue's words, he more or less heard something wrong, but Su Mo didn't say much, just replied.

"OK."

It didn't take long for the flying car to stop at the high wall entrance inspection area.

Qian Chengxue and Su Mo both showed their ID cards at the same time, and after some verification, they let them go.

She drove the flying car towards the east of the high wall.

Not long after, a garden-style manor came into view, and the door opened early.

A servant bowed his head respectfully to greet him.

Seeing this scene, Su Mo was also secretly surprised. Seeing this posture, the Lin family indeed regarded Qian Chengxue as one of their own.

Qian Chengxue parked the car in the designated area.

A vigorous butler in a white shirt and black tuxedo stepped forward, opened the car door for Qian Chengxue, and greeted her.

"Miss, you are back."

"Um."

Qian Chengxue nodded slightly.

"Sir, they are all waiting for you in the restaurant.

The housekeeper respectfully reports.

"good!"

Qian Chengxue led Su Mo into the house.

When I met maids along the way, I greeted them respectfully.

"Miss."

Not long after, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue came to the resplendent restaurant.

A slender dining table came into view, filled with various sumptuous delicacies, and Lin Yaotian sat at the main seat.

Lin Hai, Lin Muxi, and Lin Xiaoyu sat on both sides.

But they didn't see the figures of Lin Yixuan and Lin Ming, and most importantly, they didn't see the figure of Qian Chengxue's biological mother either.

Lin Hai and the others greeted Qian Chengxue one after another when they saw Qian Chengxue.

"Lin Xue, you are here."

"Um."

Qian Chengxue nodded in response.

At this time, Lin Hai and the others also noticed Su Mo who was following him, and they were also slightly taken aback, then said in astonishment.

"Isn't this Su Mo?"

"Hello everyone, uncle."

Su Mo said hello one by one in embarrassment, saying that he was not nervous, it was all fake.

Sitting on the main seat, Lin Yaotian said calmly, "Well, let's all take your seats."

Then Su Mo and Qian Chengxue sat down.

Lin Yaotian said, "Let's eat!"

Only then did Lin Hai and the others pick up the tableware and start eating.

Su Mo felt unusually reserved, and he silently lowered his head to eat.

At this moment, Lin Yaotian turned his head to look at Su Mo and asked, "Are your injuries healed?"

"Well, it's almost as good as it is good, but it's not good yet. I won't be able to fight for a while."

Su Mo replied awkwardly.

After hearing this, Lin Yaotian was silent for a few seconds, and then asked: "Then which position are you transferred to now?"

When Su Mo heard this, he felt Alexander. There was a feeling of being interrogated, he replied with a guilty conscience.

"Actually, I retired."

Hearing Su Mo's words, Lin Yaotian frowned into a mess.

Lin Hai and the others were also very surprised, looking at Su Mo: "You actually retired? No, even though you can't fight, the Federation has to arrange an important position for you anyway."

Qian Chengxue explained for Su Mo at this time: "Actually, it's good to retire. Su Mo can just help me run the company together."

Lin Yaotian's expression squirmed for a while, as if he wanted to say something, but he seemed to give up in the end.
