Chapter 1648 Transaction Failed
If Xiao Moshan wants to reach the supreme level, he can only do so at the Dawn Base, as the conditions at the abandoned mine are too poor.
However, he and Xiao Qin have become iconic figures in the abandoned mine. Once they leave, that place will be useless.
Qu Jianlei thought about it and sent Yuanyuan over to guard, while Tianyin and Claire coordinated the work.
After all, there is no need to keep the abandoned mine as a stronghold for too long.
Once the transformation of the Skyhook Maze is completed, everyone can evacuate from Tianfeng Star.
After Yuanyuan rushed there, Xiao Qin also came to the Dawn Base. Now, her advancement is still a long way off.
However, she seemed to have accepted the result and was quite calm.
Seeing this, Hua Xiezi couldn't help but say a few words to her, "If you try hard, there is still hope!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qin just smiled and didn't say anything. However, Xiao Moshan said, "Okay, you don't have to say anything more."
We all climbed up from the bottom, but there is nothing we can do about it. Who would not know how to cherish the opportunity?
Three months later, Xiao Moshan successfully passed the tribulation and became the second person in the team with the highest wind attribute after Hua Xiezi.
However, after advancing, he was not in a hurry to choose a magic weapon, but expressed his hope to use the magic weapon in exchange for Xiao Qin's chance to survive the tribulation.
He also didn't know how to help Xiao Qin advance, but he thought that the boss might have a way.
If the boss has no way, that doesn’t matter. He is willing to guard a contact point with Xiao Qin in the years to come.
As for the team battle...he would not participate unless it was necessary.
He wanted to spend more time accompanying Xiao Qin through the rest of his life, and after that, continue to fight for the team.
I have to say, this guy's personality is really a headache. He used to be blindly loyal to the army, but now he just wants to accompany Xiao Qin.
But on the other hand, he who has always liked fighting and killing may... really yearn for a peaceful life.
Only those who have truly experienced displacement and turmoil can truly understand the value of peace, right?
Of course, guarding a contact point is not always peaceful. The two of them were almost killed by Teikyo Academy before.
However, for digital phantoms who rarely interact with the outside world and are known for their mystery, a fixed point of contact is also necessary.
But what Qu Jianlei was thinking was: Xiao Qin should be over 80 years old now?
Before he knew it, he had lived for more than seventy years in this life.
Time flies by so fast...
After Xiao Moshan advanced, he was not in a hurry to return to Tianfeng, but took Xiao Qin to Yanyutai.
The two traveled there for two months and then went to Panshi, Future Star and other places to continue their travels.
The cost of using the teleportation is very high, so it is equivalent to traveling on public funds for the two of them.
However, the two of them have been guarding Tianfeng's deserted mine for many years. Even if they have no credit, they have worked hard, so this fee is nothing.
It was this piece of dog food that made the paranoid man feel a little touched, and he also went to Yanyu Terrace to accompany Mu Yu.
The fourth boss accidentally heard about this and actually went to Future Star to find Youyou.
The relationship between the two is a little subtle, more than friends but less than lovers, but mainly because Youyou doesn't have much feeling for him.
But the Fourth In Command did not take it seriously. Instead, he found the eldest boss and asked him to help see what the probability was that Youyou would reach the highest level.
Youyou's aptitude is relatively average, but slightly better than Xiao Qin's. Qu Jianlei did a casual divination and felt that there was still hope.
Before they knew it, the Digital Phantom team was filled with the sour smell of love.
Putting aside Xiao Moshan's influence on the team, the thunder that struck him again when he was trying to overcome the tribulation also forced the government to make a painful decision.
They sent the Supreme Datra to discuss the purchase of the demon and the information on how to overcome the tribulation.
Datra was a good friend of Leonardo da Vinci, and helped look after his assets during the years he was trapped in the Maiden Star Domain.
Before this, Datra was not sure whether his friend’s recent disappearance was due to his joining the Digital Phantom.
Now that the news has been confirmed, he came here to speak on behalf of the government, and also for some personal reasons.
Unfortunately, when he arrived, he did not meet Leonardo da Vinci.
He was received by Jia Shuiqing, who said that Leonardo had gone into seclusion to practice, but as for the specific location... it was not convenient to disclose.
But Mrs. Jia also said that she would tell Da Vinci after she met him.
Datra was a little disappointed. Now there was no one left to help him.
However, he still had to complete the task assigned by the government.
Officials said that the empire is currently fighting on two fronts and the financial pressure is too great. The price of one hundred trillion is really too high.
They hope to pay 500 billion yuan in advance to purchase general information, and then consider purchasing some targeted information later.
Formally, officials appear to recognize the value of the information they possess and are willing to pay for it.
But Qu Jianlei felt that this amount of 500 billion... was a bit interesting.
The cost for Dogan to purchase the star cluster was also 500 billion. Is it a coincidence?
She paid the fees in installments, and from the Empire's perspective, the two expenses could be considered offset.
Of course, from an operational perspective, there are some technical issues.
For example, from a financial perspective, borrowing and spending should be two-line, and local revenue and imperial revenue are also different.
But no matter what, the amount of these two huge transactions is the same, and this topic should not be avoided.
Moreover, huge payments may involve many links, including but not limited to position calls.
In this case, why can't we make special arrangements and offset the funds on both sides?
But it is quite interesting that Datra did not say a word about the star cluster purchase fee paid by Dogan.
Qu Jianlei doesn't know much about finance, but Mu Guang knows something about it.
Mu Guang said, Boss, what you think may not be correct, but there is no doubt that this number implies something.
He thought the most likely scenario was that the Empire was unwilling to approve the deal to acquire ownership of the star cluster.
Perhaps they wanted to imply that the transaction was illegal, after all, the Empire had not been able to file a record of it so far.
However, the Empire may also simply want to express that these two matters are separate and should not be confused.
To expand on this a little, the empire may still raise objections to the deal in the future.
I have to admit that people who engage in politics do have a lot of things to consider.
In other words, Mu Guang has been engaged in gray transactions for many years and is more sensitive to similar things.
In short, he believed that the Empire's offer of such a price without connecting the two events could not be said to be well-intentioned.
Qu Jianlei became unhappy when he heard this, and instructed Jia Shuiqing to ask Datra directly.
"These 500 billion are equivalent to the cost of Dogan purchasing star clusters. Why can't the two offset each other?"
And Datra actually knew the reason very well.
But he had also been instructed that if the Digital Phantom didn't ask, he didn't need to bring it up.
Now that the other party has clearly asked the question, it shows that they are not without relevant sensitivity.
He could only answer, "If they offset each other, wouldn't that be an endorsement of that transaction?"
Disapproval does not necessarily mean opposition, but endorsement at least means approval.
Jia Shuiqing understood what it meant as soon as he heard it, and couldn't help but sneered, "You spend all your time thinking about these things?"
In any case, the other party deliberately quoted such a price, at least implying that they would not support the transaction.
She couldn't make the decision on this matter, so she informed the boss.
Qu Jianlei hesitated for a moment and said, "You can distance yourself from the matter if you want to... the more you get, the greater the consequences will be. We just want energy blocks."
The key is that the purification of the Skyhook Maze has entered a critical period and is not far from success. At the same time, the consumption of energy blocks has also increased dramatically.
He had previously accumulated some energy blocks, but they were now being consumed rapidly and his inventory was in a state of deficit.
If the supply chain is not adjusted, it won't be long before the energy block reserves run out.
And these 500 billion energy blocks will be a very effective supplement - it's always a good idea to prepare some extra reserves.
Unfortunately, although he was ready to accept the other party's hint, Datra said that he could not pay with energy blocks.
"The Empire means that this sum of money can be paid in one go, but we hope you can set up a dedicated account."
The account will definitely not be regulated, but it is disgusting that it can be monitored.
Datra actually hated this answer very much, because it was obviously a further test by the government.
——If Digital Phantom can accept that the deal is not legitimate, then you can try to continue to put pressure on him.
However, Jia Shuiqing's answer was straightforward, "If that's the case, you can leave... I don't want to see you anymore."
She didn't even need to ask the boss for permission to make this decision. I've seen people who don't know what's good for them, but I've never seen anyone so ignorant.
"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant," Datra said hastily.
"I'm just relaying what the government is saying... They mean that the war is tense right now, and the supply and demand of energy blocks is a bit out of balance."
"Don't say those useless things," Jia Shuiqing said with a cold face, "If you continue to pester me, I will make it impossible for you to leave!"
At this moment, Datra really wanted to lose his temper. We are all supreme, do you have to be so arrogant?
He is not someone who is used to being bullied!
But in the end, he snorted coldly, "I'm just delivering a message for someone else, why do you have to be so nasty?"
"You look so ugly... Haha," Old Lady Jia sneered, "I did it for Da Vinci's sake, otherwise I would have just taken action."
This transaction actually failed.
Jia Shuiqing went to the boss to explain, saying that he really couldn't hold back his anger and was willing to take responsibility.
However, Qu Jianlei shook his head disapprovingly and muttered softly, "We are increasingly being targeted."
Then he issued another order, asking the existing energy stone mines to increase their output as much as possible.
He was not sure whether the government had reached a consensus to take action against Digital Phantom, but at least he was being targeted by some people.
