National development: I build a base on the rock beast

Most of the trade on the Earth is basic daily necessities. If you want to buy interstellar weapons and equipment, the variety on the star port is more complete.

"Boss, this is the interstellar street of Nico Star Port. There are everything from interstellar battleships to screws for base construction."

This interstellar street, seen from the street, is almost ten thousand meters long, with more than a thousand shops in it.

Bai Xianglu looked around and asked Jiang Yao: "Is there a store that specializes in selling weapon blueprints? It would be better to have a bigger one."

Under Jiang Yao's guidance, the three of them arrived at the door of a store.

"This is the Dugu family's flagship store in Nigu Starport. It should be the most authoritative weapons blueprint store in the entire starport. Of course, the price is also the most expensive."

The Dugu family is a special family that belongs to the Dilian. They do not have the comprehensive strength of the big family, but they have the same status as the big family.

And all this is only because of the talent of the direct descendants of the Dugu family, equipment research and development and manufacturing!

There are not many direct descendants of the Dugu family, but among the Earth Star Research Institute, there are only four professor-level experts.

The three of them entered the store. In this large three-story store, there was only one "clerk" at the counter at the door, and he was an old man.

“See what you want to buy for yourself, then come to the counter and pay for it!”

The old man was looking down at something, and occasionally used a pen to write on the drawing paper beside him. He just said this without raising his head.

There were not many customers in this store. I casually took a look at the prices of the top-quality products, which easily cost more than a million star coins. I tried to persuade many buyers to turn away.

Bai Xianglu was a fan of weapons development. Looking at the dazzling array of products, she couldn't move.

"Duan Ming! Look! That's an optical simulation device!"

The optical simulation device has roughly the same principle as the optical camouflage device, but its effects are higher and lower.

The optical camouflage device can hide the shape of objects within the range, while the optical simulation device can change the shape of the object according to the user's wishes, thereby achieving the purpose of confusing the enemy.

Bai Xianglu wrapped her hands around Duan Ming's arms. Although they were separated by a mask, Duan Ming wanted to get her earnest gaze under the mask first.

I looked at the price, twelve million star coins!

You know, Duan Ming's entire net worth is just over 10 million star coins!

As if seeing Duan Ming's financial difficulties, Jiang Yao said: "Boss, when I came out, I asked my dad for a card. This card can overdraft 50 million star coins. He asked me to give it to you as a gift. Your reward for saving me."

Jiang Yao told his father that he was attacked by a star beast and was saved by Duan Ming.

Having money naturally gave him confidence, so Duan Ming was not polite and took the black gold card.

"purchase!"

Walking to the counter, Duan Ming said: "That optical simulation device, swipe your card."

The old man raised his head and glanced at Duan Ming, said only one sentence, and then continued to go about his own business with his head down.

"Twenty million star coins, you can spend it yourself."

Duan Ming was stunned, wasn't he just sitting on the floor and raising the price? Think I'm being taken advantage of!

"I dare to ask, is this a black shop?"

The old man paused, raised his head and frowned, "Why are you talking?"

"If it wasn't a black shop, your price tag clearly stated the price at 12 million star coins, how come it became 20 million?"

The old man replied in a displeased tone: "If you want to buy it, buy it. If you don't buy it, get out!"

Because of Tang Yaqing's incident, Duan Ming was already in a bad mood. Being provoked by the old man, he also became a little emotional.

"Everything must be justified. Although eight million star coins is a lot, I can still afford it. If you don't give me an explanation, if you don't give me an explanation, this matter will never end!"

The old man also had a bad temper. He put the drawings aside, stood up and rolled up his sleeves.

"Boy! Am I too old to bully the old man? Are you making gestures?"

The atmosphere was tense for a moment. Jiang Yao stood between the two of them and tried to persuade them back and forth, but it obviously had no effect.

"This is wrong."

A voice sounded from the side, attracting the eyes of Duan Ming and the old man. Looking at them at the same time, Bai Xianglu was squatting on the ground, staring at the drawings that the old man had put down.

"Wrong? What's wrong?"

The old man asked and joined in. Apparently he had completely forgotten about the impending war.

"Look, if platinum crystal is used in this position, its stability can be improved by at least three points."

What Bai Xianglu said were professional terms for weapons development. Duan Ming and Jiang Yao couldn't understand it, but the old man understood it.

The old man also squatted down and looked carefully, then asked: "What about this? How to deal with this problem?"

Bai Xianglu thought for a moment and then replied: "The structure here is shortened by one-tenth, wouldn't the problem be solved?"

The old man raised his hand and scratched the few remaining hair. When he looked at Bai Xianglu again, there was some admiration in his eyes.

"Girl, are you a graduate of weapons development?"

Bai Xianglu shook her head.

"I'm an ordinary pioneer, just more interested in weapons development."

The old man nodded with satisfaction, and while saying the following words, he did not forget to cast a glance at Duan Ming.

"You're a very polite girl! You're not like a certain boy who doesn't know how to respect the elderly!"

The muscles at the corners of Duan Ming's mouth trembled slightly under his mask. Why did his painting style suddenly change so quickly?

"You can pick any two of the things in my store and treat them as gifts from me!"

Bai Xianglu didn't know that the two points she just raised solved the problem that the old man had been racking his brains for half a month!

Bai Xianglu thought for a moment and directly gave her goal.

"I want that! Plus the optical simulation device!"

Her finger pointed to an inconspicuous small box next to the counter, on which a name was written on an old piece of paper.

Superlight energy cannon manufacturing drawings!

The old man was obviously stunned.

"This? This is the core weapon of the Supreme Battleship! What do you want it for?"

At this point, the old man paused and said, "You are not from the Freedom Alliance!"

The Freedom Alliance is an organization that has appeared in the past ten years. They advocate freedom and believe that everyone in this vast universe is the master. The area should not be divided according to the rules of the Earth Alliance. Therefore, they often attack the Earth Alliance and the parties. To put it simply, they are terrorists and elements in the universe.

Bai Xianglu smiled and said in a coquettish tone: "Grandpa, you see I am so cute, do I look like a Freedom Alliance member?"

The old man obviously liked this and raised his hand to touch his white beard.

"No, no."

"Then we'll take these two things!"

But the next moment, the old man frowned and said, "You can take the manufacturing drawings, but you have to pay for the optical simulation device!"
