This reward was beyond Chu Jungui's expectation and beyond Lin Xi's imagination.
What Chitong sent over was an ownership statement, which contained Chu Jungui's ownership certificate for Planet No. 4, as well as some corresponding terms.
Based on the fact that Chu Jungui came from scratch on Planet 4, single-handedly uprooted the Federation's base on the planet's surface, and captured many important figures, ruining the Federation's exploration and preparations for several years, this mission was naturally Got the highest rating.
Galaxy N7703 is far away from the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and Planet 4 is a planet with life. Although the climate is extreme and the living environment is harsh, the planet with life itself is a priceless treasure. Therefore, Chi Tong took ownership of Planet No. 4 for him without waiting for Chu Jungui's consent.
This is the highest level of reward. Chu Jungui's ownership of Planet No. 4 will be recognized and protected by the Special Operations Division, and will also be informally recognized and protected by Shengtang.
But once this reward is obtained, Chu Jungui will not get anything else. The two of them had no objection, because no reward was as important as the ownership of a living planet.
Although Chu Jungui currently only has one base on the huge Planet No. 4, and has to constantly resist the intrusion of beasts and the Federation, but establishing ownership means that everything on this planet will belong to Chu Jungui and Lin. Xi all.
Just maintaining a planet is not as easy as imagined.
Now that the ownership of the planet has been transferred, the Special Operations Office and Shengtang no longer have a natural obligation to provide planetary supplies and assistance. If you want to continue to receive assistance and supplies, you need to apply and pay.
The maintenance of the ground base on Planet 4 does not require much assistance. In addition, assistance from outer space also needs to pass through storm clouds, and the transport ship needs to be deeply modified, which is another batch of additional expenses.
Next is the fees and billing section.
As soon as they saw the long number at the top of the bill, the test subject suddenly panicked. The calm girl like Lin Xi couldn't help but said: "How come there are so many?!"
Chitong seemed to have known this for a long time, and smiled and said: "5.5 billion is not too much. As for how this number came from, you can see for yourself. There are detailed subjects below."
Chu Jungui had already scanned all the subject data, and Lin Xi was only a little slower than him. The two pointed at the same subject at the same time and asked: "What is fleet expedition cost sharing?"
"This is to share the cost of the Ninth Fleet's expedition."
Chitong further explained: "It is the obligation of the agent who owns the territory to share the military expenses for the expedition. When the dynasty fleet fights in the agent system, the agent needs to share military expenses ranging from 1% to 10% depending on the level. After all, the dynasty fleet arrives, It is equivalent to providing security for the agent's territory. Therefore, it is appropriate to share part of the military expenditure."
On this point, both Chu Jungui and Lin Xi understood. Take the N7703 galaxy as an example. If the Ninth Fleet hadn't arrived in outer space and severely damaged the Federation fleet in several consecutive battles, Chu Jungui would have been submerged on the surface of the planet sooner or later by the Federation army.
Chitong smiled and said: "So far, the Ninth Fleet's military expenditures have totaled 250 billion, and you need to share 5 billion. Plus 20% of the Special Operations Division's rescue and support operations, the total is 5.5 billion."
"Wait a minute, shouldn't we share military spending at 1%?"
"That's true, but you are two agents."
"We only have one territory?"
"But you are still two agents. That's the rule."
"This rule is unreasonable!"
"But that's the rule."
No matter how hard Lin Xi argued, Chitong would not waver. Finally, Lin Xi simply said: "We have no money!"
Chitong was not angry and said: "This debt is a bit high, but don't worry. For an agent with a territory, it is not difficult to repay it. Okay, let's see how many ways there are The debt can be repaid. First of all, I want to congratulate you. Your performance in this mission is enough for you to be promoted to the next level immediately. After implanting the new chip, you, Chu Jungui, will be a third-level agent. Lin Xi is a fourth-level agent."
"The new chip has been produced and will be implanted in a moment. I will send you the new permission list right away."
Lin Xi's level 4 authority was nothing more than a series of new equipment and drawings. Chu Jungui was essentially level 4 before, so there was nothing new. But there is a qualitative change from the fourth level to the third level.
At this level, the Special Operations Division opened up purchase channels for fighter jets and small starships. Because of the gray nature of the Special Operations Office, not only the standard equipment of the Tang Dynasty can be purchased here, but also federal and community equipment. It's just that the supply of Federation's latest models is very limited, which is understandable.
As long as Chu Jungui has money, he can form a squadron with destroyers as the main body and hundreds of fighter planes. This force will already be comparable to the powerful Star Thieves.
The new authority allowed Chu Jungui to see a series of fighters and starships listed for sale by agents, but most of them were unavailable for purchase due to their location in the star field. What can currently be purchased are several small starships and fighters that are currently available in mobile bases.
Just looking at the fighter jets ranging from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions, as well as starships with prices starting at 100 million, Chu Jungui, who was currently heavily in debt, silently closed the purchase page.
Chitong should be used to seeing this scene, so he just smiled and said: "The following are some of my personal suggestions, which are also the more common development paths for agents after they have their own territory."
Agents are equivalent to small semi-independent kingdoms. They develop through trade, resource extraction, production and war. Which path to take depends on the resource endowment of the agent's territory. The situation of Planet 4 is quite special. It is basically completely blocked in the current war environment, and there is no way to follow the conventional resource-based route.
However, among the many options, Chu Jungui suddenly saw a path that was particularly suitable for his current stage.
While he was studying, Chi Tong said to Lin Xi: "By the way, after getting your news, Marshal Lin sent a message and wanted you to come to the fleet to meet him."
Lin Xi was a little surprised, "When?"
"The sooner the better."
Lin Xi glanced at Chu Jungui and said, "Where is he?"
"Marshal Lin specifically stated that he wants you to go there alone. As for Jun Gui, there are other arrangements from above."
Lin Xi frowned, "What arrangement?"
"It won't be a bad thing anyway, don't worry!"
Lin Xi was a little doubtful, but Chitong spent so much effort to rescue them, so he probably wouldn't harm them intentionally again.
Chitong looked at the personal terminal and said: "In 5 hours, a spaceship will depart for the Ninth Fleet. I suggest you take that ship. If you miss this flight, the next one will be 50 days later."
"Okay." Lin Xi said simply.
Chi Tong asked someone to take Lin Xi down to prepare her luggage. Chu Jungui and Chi Tong were the only ones left in the office.
Chitong looked at Chu Jungui and said, "I have a special gift for you."
