"Hi, John."
"Hi, Lu." Looking at Lu Yuan who came to disturb him early in the morning, John rubbed his face, "Ah~ come in. What's the matter so early?" He groaned and said. He is the owner of this small bar, and unfortunately, he is also the only bartender in this bar. Yesterday, I stayed with a bunch of drunkards until midnight, and today I had to be woken up early by Lu Yuan. Of course, I was not in a good mood.
If not for the good relationship between everyone, Lu Yuan would have been kicked out long ago.
"Use your Internet." Lu Yuan spread his hands and sat down in his usual seat. "Give me a glass of real wine, not the synthetic ones!" He shouted towards the counter.
"How picky... I said you are going to fly a spaceship soon, right?" Since Lu Yuan came to use the Internet early in the morning, he obviously had something urgent to do and was preparing to leave by boat.
"Star Alliance doesn't care about drunk driving!" Lu Yuan shouted back, and then controlled the multi-purpose tool to connect to the local network. These networks have very strict restrictions, and outsiders like Lu Yuan cannot use them directly on the ship. He entered a small online community and sent a group message that he was leaving. These people are all the customers he has accumulated during this period - the postal traffic in the "Utopia" galaxy is basically between "Eden" and "Narcissus". Therefore, every time before Lu Yuan runs a long distance, he will send emails to the people who have left their contact addresses and ask them if they have any letters or items that need to be delivered along the way.
"Your wine." John placed a glass of blue drink in front of him. "My new product is said to be the famous wine of the Turians."
"You call this wine?" Lu Yuan shook his head, picked it up and drank it in one gulp! Then he felt a shock born in his blood and went straight to his brain. "Ha!" He let out a long breath, and even his breath turned light blue due to the overbearing drink. "John, don't sell this wine casually. I tasted a strong hallucinogenic taste... This thing really can't be called wine."
"I know... go drink your red wine!" John complained angrily behind the bar.
"Oh, you know?" Lu Yuan raised his head curiously.
"This planet. Is there anyone who doesn't know that you gave Old Tang a bottle of ancient red wine?" John got angry when he mentioned this and slammed the organic cup on the table. "You know I want a little taste. What did that old guy give me?! A taste chip! He gave me a taste chip, old bastard! You know... my dad's dad's dad has been running the tavern, We've never used that thing in our lives! He's an insult to my family!"
"Then have you used it?" Lu Yuan asked interestingly. The convenience of the Internet in this world can build barrier-free communication across the planet, greatly improving the efficiency of making friends. It's not unusual for two people from different parts of the world to become close friends. Old Tang, who has organized the Pumpkin Car Competition for more than ten years, is undoubtedly the most popular and the one with the most friends. In order to use his connections in the future. Lu Yuan gave Old Tang a bottle of red wine...but - a taste chip? ! Damn it! Such a wicked way!
"It's used..." John raised his head with tears in his eyes, trying not to let the tears fall. "Although I am ashamed, the taste is indeed very good... so I licked the chip many times. Now I can only rely on hallucinogens to save my sense of taste, otherwise I can only pass the chip to my son... "
"Don't pretend to be pitiful, I will give you a bottle... not that good, you don't know how precious that kind of wine is!" Before he could finish his words, the computer started to ding ding ding. Hundreds of emails flood in instantly and are analyzed and processed by automated processing programs.
"Why do you have so many emails today?" John immediately changed the subject. He knew the wine was precious. But he couldn't say the word "reject"...
"I'm going to be away for a few months, but I really should thank you all." Looking at the automatically processed information. Lu Yuan smiled. Although there were a lot of emails coming in, almost no one asked him to transport it again. Most of them wished him a smooth journey and asked when he would come back.
"As soon as I can".
He leaned back in his chair and remembered the red email he received in the early morning - "You have a new job."

"Find out who is hiding behind..." General Steven Hackett's tough request is really a false proposition.
Of the three major races in the galaxy, the Asari are all female. They practice an extremely loose city-state system and a democratic system (you can just choose one online). Since the average life span is thousands of years, those who really have a say . Not the elected managers, but the elders who are over 700 years old and have accumulated countless wisdom and experience.
The Turians are a centralized empire with a clan structure, up to 27 levels of social structure. Let the turians spend their lives climbing mountains.
The Salarians are amphibious creatures with extremely fast thinking and an average life span of 40 years. They are simply a matriarchal society...
However, the three major races, and even the races of all sizes in the galaxy, all respect that warriors can choose the equipment that is more suitable for them - so there are more than a dozen giant arms companies across the galaxy! They build everything from a rifle to a dreadnought! And always get good sales.
Just when they felt that their development had come to an end and they were exhausted from wrestling with each other, the new human race that joined the Milky Way family gave them a huge surprise!
"Selection!" When humans proposed this sparkling concept worthy of promotion throughout the galaxy, it instantly illuminated the money scene of the arms companies! While they were moved to tears by this concept, they also seemed to see the flash of swords and bloodshed on the road ahead!
Model selection...that means millions of people using the same type of weapons and equipment at the same time! ——This kind of thing has never happened in the entire galaxy! How much profit is this? ! Let’s not talk about profits for now. Just watching millions of people carrying my company’s weapons and marching neatly towards the galaxy is enough to give me and anyone else a myocardial infarction! ——As I once said, I am an arms dealer with ideals!
In fact, according to what Lu Yuan later learned, Starlink's "model selection" work was indeed carried out in the following years, and the results were extremely exaggerated! The assault rifle chosen was roughly the Avenger V type, and the final model was the M-8 "Avenger". This rifle was used until the Reaper invasion. In the past ten years, the Star Alliance purchased hundreds of millions of them... to produce this rifle. The company that produces rifles, "Elkoss United", is a company of Wallers (a short, stubby, goblin-like race that specializes in business) and is famous for producing simplified versions of high-end equipment...
The largest procurement project chooses a non-human company. It would be strange if there is no ghost in the middle!
However, it’s not time to select a rifle yet. The first thing to test the waters was the selection of several basic armor models. Old Man Hackett casually threw the n7 armor (that is, the black onyx X-type armor) in his hand to Lu Yuan, letting this armor shine in the limelight, which obviously touched the interests of some people.
So the old man received some counterattacks - you have to understand that Hackett is a bad old man who is both politically savvy and has a bad temper!
He was promoted from a small soldier to a general. Many people felt that he was promoted too quickly and there would be no harm in suffering a little blow! Therefore, almost everyone, including Li Yunchen, thought he would tolerate this small loss.
But Lu Yuan thought it was impossible at the time - Hackett was not a simple bad old man!
In the future, when Saren led the "Overlord" dreadnought and the geth fleet and was about to capture the Citadel, it was he who led the human fifth fleet to desperately support him! As a result, after the war, he became the Commander-in-Chief of the Star Alliance Navy, and humanity became the fourth member of the council... Later, he became the commander-in-chief of the Galaxy against the Reapers. This shows how strong the old man's political courage is and how big his heart is!
Are those little scumbags trying to stop him now? !
Therefore, it seems that the old man directly chose to uproot his opponent! He used a secret card in his hand, Lu Yuan, who seemed to be pretty good... So Lu Yuan just drove a broken ship, Shi Shiran joined the big shot's game, and became a The glorious flag...
"Hey! Long time no see!" Just as Lu Yuan was driving the "Skywalker" and thinking about the stakes during this period, a plump body came out of the gap and fell into his arms... a purple dress, Charming peach blossom eyes, who else could it be if it wasn’t Yakumo Purple?
"Come back with me quickly! There's good news!"
Yakumo Purple grabbed his collar and pulled him into the gap without any explanation... (To be continued)
