Qi Le

Six squirrels walked into the alien base, attracting many surprised eyes.After Qi Le and his son, it became another landscape in the base.After entering the airport, I was even more shocked.

"Is it the native species again?"

"Not quite like it."

"It can't be a strange beast, can it?"

"They went to the No. [-] dock to trade?"

With Alpha around, no businessman would intentionally make trouble, just watched a group of people walk into the dock, and whispered a few words with exclamation in their words.

The squirrels walked into Dock No. [-] first, and took away the first batch of potions and crystals ordered by Qi Le.Then came to the No. [-] dock and handed over the cargo with Aldo face to face.Due to the limited number of spars carried by the squirrel, half of the goods are temporarily left in the airport, and will not be shipped out of the base until the crystal nuclei are settled.

"Is this a high-level xenoplanted crystal nucleus?" Aldo picked up a light green crystal nucleus, gathered his five fingers, and carefully felt the energy in the crystal nucleus.The spar in the center of the forehead was slightly heated, and the color instantly became brighter.

Under Qi Le's surprised eyes, Aldo grinned and said with a smile: "If there are all crystal nuclei like this, the price of the goods can be discounted by [-]%."

"[-]%?" Elfa shook his head and folded his arms, with obvious disapproval in his voice, "I think it should be [-]%."

"Alfa, [-]% is too much..." Aldo still wanted to set up a friendship, but seeing the darkening color of the medical officer, he wisely chose to shut up.Without further entanglement on the price, he readily made a concession and gave a batch of primary potions as a gift.

"These potions can increase physical strength and strengthen bones, and are most suitable for cubs."

Qi Le and Squirrel's eyes lit up at the same time, and Patunia and Fine's ears pricked up.

"Regardless of galaxy populations?"

"Yes." Aldo explained, "The potion comes from the star star seven. Long-term use can improve the physique without causing any damage to the body, but the effect can be fast or slow. Blue star species can also be used."

Speaking of this, Aldo looked at the medical officer and praised: "The medical officer of Star Star is the best, and the potion he made is the same."

Alpha's color returned to normal, and he accepted the other party's compliment.

"By the way, this is for you too." Aldo flipped through his pockets and took out a square metal box.

"What is this?" Qi Le asked curiously.

Is it another small machine?

"This is a space device." Aldo shook his head, turned over the back of the metal box, pointed to the weird symbols on it, and explained, "The production process is very crude, and it cannot store fresh items. It can store a large amount of ores and potions. For you It should be useful. Before opening it, you need to install a spar," Aldo showed Qi Le the groove at the bottom, "a spar can last for half a year."

The metal box was twenty centimeters long and wide, square and iron-gray.Qi Le touched it with his paw, and then looked down at the space button hanging around his neck. The materials of the two are similar, and there is no difference in touch.

"This device is very old, and the Alliance has discontinued production." Alpha picked up the metal box, pressed the groove on the side of the box, and recognized the pattern on the box surface, wondering, "Where did you find it?"

According to the popular saying, this kind of space device belongs to the category of antiques and is no longer for sale.Because there is not much collection value, and the crystal nucleus needs to be used, the surviving part is gradually replaced by the space button.

Nowadays, it is estimated that it can only be found on Junk Star.

"This," Aldo raised his chin, quite proudly, "I robbed a smuggling ship before and got a batch."

"A batch? This is on the smuggling ship?" Alpha obviously didn't believe it.

Those smugglers had their heads hit by spaceships?

Obviously a loss-making business.

"Although this kind of space device is old, the advantage is that there is no need to check the identity, and there is no positioning procedure." Aldo explained, "The smuggling ship was carrying the low-tax cargo under the flag of the alliance transport ship, and successfully avoided the galaxy patrol ship. .Use this to smuggle ore to the border galaxy, and the profits are quite considerable."

"You said they smuggled ore?" Qi Le asked suddenly.

The space device was stolen, so could the ore sold to him be too?

"Yes." Aldo bent down and blinked at Qi Le.

His identity is a pirate, and most of the goods on board were robbed.There are those in detail, no need to explain.In short, it does not hinder everyone from doing business, why bother so much?

"Since this is the case, the price can be lowered by [-]%." A familiar voice came from behind.In the next second, the cat father was picked up from the ground, rolled into a ball and carried into Xi Yaer's arms.

The kitten roared loudly, which attracted the surprised eyes of the squirrels, but they ignored that Qi Le was in the arms of a foreigner.

"Isn't he a cat?" Red Oak asked in surprise.

"Why do you call it that?"

Alpha rolled his eyes. Since it was still light blue, everyone present could see it clearly.

The medical officer bent down and picked up Qi Ning. He wanted to put it on his shoulders, but when he met Qi Le's vigilant gaze, he turned around and handed it to the captain.

The kitten jumped into Dad Mao's arms and was immediately hugged tightly.

As a pup, he can permanently change his coat color and size to avoid detection by other predators.When they are older and able to protect themselves and hunt successfully, this ability will gradually disappear.

After all, native tigers are top predators, and they have almost no opponents on Blue Star in terms of fighting alone.Only when they are besieged by other native species, especially large raptors, will they be at a disadvantage in battle.

The talents of tiger cubs are completely opposite to those of crows.

The former can change in childhood, but the latter has to wait until adulthood.This is a choice made by species during evolution. After hundreds of years of evolution, no one can change it.

Taking advantage of being able to form a small ball, the kitten decided to carry on acting coquettishly to the end.

In a few months, his stature will completely surpass Qi Le's.At this time next year, Qi Ning's ability to change will further degenerate, the cat dad who carries his son will become history, and the cat dad who stands on his son's head will set off again.

"Meow." Qi Le licked the kitten, kicked his hind paw a few times, and found a comfortable position for himself.

Xial relaxed his arm slightly, brushed his fingers behind Qi Le's ears, and took out two blue fruits from the space button, which were very fragrant and very tempting.

Qi Le didn't resist, put the fruit into his mouth, and fed another piece into the kitten's mouth.Compared to mustard-flavored kalan leaves, this fruit tastes sweet and can enhance physical strength, which is barely acceptable.

"Reduce by [-]%?" Aldo exaggerated, covering his forehead with one hand, "Xiaer, you can't do this, do you know how heartbroken I am?"

The captain raised his eyebrows, motioned Aldo to come closer, and whispered a few words at a very fast speed.

"Sell it to me?" Aldo said incredulously.

"Yes." Shiar nodded, "Two medium-sized merchant ships, you were at the scene when they were disassembled. The hull materials are not damaged in any way, and they can be assembled and used again, or even refitted."

"it is good!"

Knowing that the conditions were true, Aldo immediately turned his worries into joy.

Ore and pharmaceuticals are small businesses, unless it is high-grade ore and scarce materials, the profit can only be regarded as mediocre.In contrast, merchant shipping is more profitable.Shipping it back to reassemble it, whether for his own use or reselling it, is enough to make him a fortune.

The most important thing is that the blue star crystal core is very scarce, even if the price is reduced by [-]%, he will not suffer a loss.

For Xial, the smuggling boat is useless for him, and it will rust if left in the base.

The so-called no-cost business, you can earn as much as you sell.It can also clear out part of the warehouse, why not do it?

Thanks to Xial's intervention, the ore and potion were sold at a lower price.

Qi Le checked the data carefully, pressed his paw on the recorder, and found that more than a quarter of the crystal nuclei had been saved.

Alto made a fortune, and others followed suit.

What Qi Le and Squirrel traded was the Blue Star Crystal Core. Whether it came from a foreign animal or a foreign plant, the value of transporting it to an outer galaxy could be dozens or even hundreds of times higher.

Driven by profit, some merchants even take the initiative to lower prices in order to reach a long-term sale.

Businessmen are profit-seeking, no one is stupid.

Trying to lose money and gain favor?

Absolutely impossible.

Shial closed the hunting grounds, and those who dared to poach did not end well.In view of Governor Alecto's temper, it is completely impossible to compete for the hunting quota.If you want to obtain crystal nuclei legally, you can only trade with local species.

If Shiar didn't show up, they might still try to set up a trap and make another profit.

The commander of the base made his position clear, and there was also the medical officer who was also not easy to mess with. No businessman dared to think badly.Even if there is, it is well hidden at this moment, for fear of being targeted by the other party and entering the next batch of deportation lists.

"I'll give you five more space boxes." Aldo called a crew member and asked him to rummage in the warehouse. "I'll give you the ores in the boxes."

"Give it to me?" Qi Le raised his head, his face full of surprise.

"Yes." Aldo smiled, "I hope you can provide similar crystal nuclei in the next transaction. You don't need too many, fifty to one hundred will do."

Seeing the green crystal nucleus in Aldo's hand, Qi Le looked at the squirrel.

The crystal nuclei are obtained from hunting by squirrels. Whether the quantity can be guaranteed, we need to ask their opinions.There are many crystal nuclei buried in the ruins, but it seems that there are not many such green ones.

"A similar crystal nucleus?" Heisong raised his head, recognized the type of crystal nucleus, turned around to discuss a few words with Red Oak, and waved to Qi Le, obviously having something to say.

Qi Le clapped his paws twice, and jumped from Xi Yaer's arms to the ground.

"Is there a problem?"

"It depends on how often you trade." Heisong whispered, "If the interval is too short, it probably won't work."

"How long is appropriate?" Qi Le asked.

"It will take at least one rainy season." Heisong said.

The xenoplanted nuclei can be regenerated, and the whole process takes several months.If the other party accepts this condition, the business can go on for a long time.

"After we go back, we will go to District [-] again."

The squirrel made up his mind to find out all similar vines and harvest them in batches.In order to ensure the quantity and quality of crystal nuclei, they can also be provided with food.

In a way, this can be regarded as a transition from "primitive fishing and hunting" to "semi-agriculturalization".As for whether the agriculturalized vines have opinions or whether they will cause depression, that is not what the squirrels care about.

Society is always progressing, and no one can stop the pace and determination of the squirrels to make progress.

Qi Le, who caused this change, did not know his role at the moment, and was discussing the time and type of goods for the transaction with Aldo.

In the end, the two parties agreed that the transaction would be done once a year, and Aldo would provide the goods that Qi Le and Squirrel needed, and the latter would pay for the goods in terms of crystal cores.If the crystal nuclei are insufficient, other "native products" can be used instead.

"Exotic animal meat, fur and other rare things can be traded."

"Rare things?" Qi Le thought for a while, but for some reason, he remembered the Tai Sui skin in the space.

Eager to give it a try, Father Cat took out an old skin that had hardened into a shell, handed it to Aldo, and asked, "Do you want this?"

Perhaps because of eating well and sleeping well, the size of Tai Sui keeps growing, and the frequency of skin changes is also increasing, from the first half a year, to March not long ago, to the most recent half a month.

The kitten received a "gift" from a friend, and all of them honored the cat's father.

Qi Le upholds the principle of not wasting, one piece is counted as one piece, and all of them are put into the space button.

Now, there is a corner in Qi Le's space that is specially used to store Tai Sui's old skins.Every time he counts the inventory, the cat father can't help but suspect that if he continues to let this eat, his space Newry will be full sooner or later.

"What is this?" Aldo took the Tai Sui skin in his hand, took a closer look, and took out another detector.

After about half a minute, the detector made a pleasant sound. Seeing the data on the screen, Aldo nodded and said, "Yes."

"Really?"

"Here are a few nutrients that are well suited for populations on Junkstar that they'll be happy to buy."

"Trash star?"

No wonder Qi Le was surprised, he had never heard of such a planet.Even if there is, the intuitive impression is that there is no grass, garbage is everywhere, and the living conditions are very poor.

"There are a lot of garbage stars who can pay a high price." Aldo blinked, put the Tai Sui skin into the space button, and took out half of the warehouse's alien meat, "These alien meat is in exchange."

"The deal is fine, but..." Qi Le still had doubts about Aldo's words.

"Junkstar's conditions are indeed harsh, but it has an independent management system and mechanical manufacturing process." Xial's voice sounded in his ears, "The inhabitants of the planet are good at smelting scrap metal, and can manufacture many types of spaceships and machinery."

There are not many residents on Garbage Star, almost all of them work together.

Selling two medium-sized spaceships every year can maintain the lives of most people.After all, the material is equivalent to taking it for nothing, and all they have to pay is the transaction tax.

If civilian warships can be built, the quality of life on the entire planet will reach a new level.

It's just that there are a lot of metals piled up on the planet, which will definitely pollute the soil and the environment in the long run.Local residents must take in several specific elements if they want to maintain good health and increase their lifespan.

According to the data given by the detector, Tai Sui skin contains a lot of nutrients, which just meet the needs of these populations.If Aldo had a black spot in his heart and cut the Tai Sui skin up for retail, he would definitely get dozens of times the profit.

"I have to explain in advance," Qi Le said after listening to Xi Yaer's explanation, "This thing doesn't taste good."

"It's okay." Aldo smiled, "Most populations on Garbage Planet don't have a sense of taste."

In fact, they don't even have a sense of smell.

Living in unique environments requires only a keen sense of sight and touch.Just like the evolution of Blue Star in history, this is the change of the population adapting to the environment.

Not that no one tried to leave.

After a period of time, those who left will all return.

Their physique and living habits can no longer adapt to the outer planets, and they are simply like walking radiation sources, rejected by most galaxies.In the end, they can only return to the galaxy where they were born, and survive and reproduce from generation to generation.

"Recently, Garbage Star has been buying growth mines everywhere, and trying to plant mutated plants." Xial pinched Qi Le's ears, and brushed his chin with his fingers.

One potential reason why medical officials such as Elfa are interested in the Blue Star species is that before the destruction of the ancient Blue Star civilization, there was a large-scale civil war, and the thermal weapons used at that time had a considerable impact on the environment.

Due to the leakage of the ore energy, the original humans turned into zombies, and the civil war did not tell the winner.Species are reshuffled, and the course of the entire planet is changed.

After that, the planet began to repair itself and gradually regained its vitality.

If the mystery can be solved, it may help Junk Star to change the environment.What's more, after being cultivated in a specific way, it is not certain that the mutated plants here can survive on the garbage planet.

Anyway, they don't need crystal nuclei, as long as they can adapt to the environment, the medical officers have more room to operate.

Of course, they are not disinterested.

Several wealthy junk stars have already offered high prices. As long as plants can survive on the planet, they can even build large warships for each other, which are powerful enough to fight against the flagship of the mother star.

For the aliens stationed at Blue Star, this condition is quite attractive.

Qi Le had another thing on his mind.

Although Blue Star is not polluted, it is a delimited hunting ground. Before Shiar is not permanent, there will be hunting ships from military schools and clans in five to ten years.When it comes to living conditions, it can also be called harsh.

There is still a long way to go if we want to make a complete change and not become a fish on other people's chopping boards.

The exotic animal meat was obtained in exchange for Tai Sui's skin, so naturally Qi Le would not eat it alone.I briefly explained to the squirrels that most of them were put into the space button, and the rest were taken as "intermediary fees" and "custodian fees" and brought out of the base by the squirrels.

The aliens present witnessed a miracle.

Xiao Shangao's exotic animal meat was decomposed in the blink of an eye, and stuffed into the squirrel's cheeks piece by piece.Those that couldn’t be packed were all dried on the spot and put into net bags woven with straw ropes.

The whole process lasted less than 10 minutes. The medical officers put away the recorder and looked at the squirrel who was about to leave, and couldn't help but marvel.

"The Blue Star may be primitive, but it doesn't lack intelligent races." A medical officer said, "From this point of view, the commander's decision to close the hunting grounds couldn't be more correct."

"Yes." Alpha nodded, suddenly remembered something, turned around and asked, "When did you come?"

The medical officer was speechless for a moment, and his color darkened due to depression.

Is he alright all the time?

As a transparent race, do you want to poke your heart like this?

From beginning to end, Patunia did not make a sound.After Qi Le completed the transaction, he flew to his side and asked about the whereabouts of the wing bones again.Fine flew behind the chipmunk, and when he heard what the crow girl said, he couldn't help feeling hopeful.

Perhaps the wing bones could indeed be found.

"I've seen similar wing bones, but I want to explain in advance that the one who collected it was a Tai Sui." Qi Le took the vaccination in advance.

"Tai Sui?" Patunia's voice changed.

She thought Qi Le was just lucky and picked up a Tai Sui skin.After all, this race is very mysterious and spends most of its life underground.Unexpectedly, there is really a living Tai Sui next to the cat father, and there is a great possibility that he picked up his father's wing bone!

No wonder Miss Crow was surprised, it was just a coincidence, the coincidence was unbelievable.

Who would have thought that the foreign race base was built on top of Tai Sui's head, and during the construction process, it happened to cut through the roof of other people's house?

No one would have thought that this Tai Sui was still very young and independent, and didn't want to stay in the soil, but set up camp in a foreign base.

Patunya still wanted to ask a few more questions, but Qi Le was picked up by Shiar again.

Father Cat sighed, resigned to his fate, bit the fruit handed by the captain, chewed it twice and swallowed it.Kicked off the big hand stretched out to the stomach, raised the claw, and slapped someone on the chin hard, with all the strength, the claw did not pop out after all.

Seeing such a scene, the crow girl remained silent for a while, feeling that the world suddenly became magical.

The squirrel paused, but didn't think much about it. It just felt that these alien races were really strange and couldn't be measured by common sense.

Walking out of the airport, the squirrels bid farewell to Qi Le.They were going to pick up the hidden crystal nuclei, and after paying the final payment, they would transport the rest of the goods.

"Qi Le, are you going with us?" Heisong asked.

"Not leaving for now." Qi Le shook his head.

"Okay." Squirrel also knew that it was not the right time, said goodbye to Qi Le and his son, and left the base with Moran.

Patunia and Fine stayed behind, and they still wanted to find their father's wing bones, and the only clue was by Qi Le's side.

"Do you want to leave?" Shial asked suddenly.

Qi Le raised his head, let out a meow, and swept his tail over the kitten, signaling him to keep quiet.

"If you want to leave, you can do so at any time." Shiar scratched Qi Le's chin, and while he was surprised, he finally succeeded in rubbing his stomach.

Qi Le bared her fangs and kicked off Xi Yaer's hand.Tilting his head, his front paws pointed in the direction of the gate of the base.

If he is leaving now?

"I told you that you can move freely, and you can come back anytime after you leave." Xial supported Qi Le, thought his appearance was very interesting, and bit his ear again.His eyes swept over the space button, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

There is no positioning program, which does not mean that there are no other functions.

If Qi Le is in danger, the space button will automatically send back an alarm, and it can even be used instead of a laser gun.The captain personally modified it, and no one knew about it except Alpha, who set the program.

Qi Le didn't know the inside story, and when he heard Xi Ya'er's words, he silently lowered his ears.

If things were that simple, what was he putting so much effort into pretending to be a puppet?

Outside the base, the squirrels bid farewell to Moran. With two cheeks hanging, they carried the dried meat of the alien animal and the metal box containing the medicine and ore, and ran quickly to the place where the crystal nucleus was buried.

Passing by a piece of tall grass on the way, the leading squirrel didn't look at the road, and almost collided with the little spider that rushed out.

click!

You are out!

click!

Are you all right?

The little spiders were very happy, they tapped their mouthparts around the squirrel, and kept gesticulating on the ground with their long legs.

The squirrels were equally happy.

Look at the long legs, and look at the spider webs that haven't been put away. The squirrels' eyes are shining, and they pick up their front paws skillfully. Long legs.

"Do you want to earn some extra money?" Red Oak put down the net bag on his shoulder, patted the strange beast meat inside, "The settlement is made with the strange beast meat."

The moment they saw the meat of the alien beast, the spiders' eyes turned green.

click!

They took this job!

Following the squirrel version of the farmer, the alien version of the spider express is freshly released.
