What can 1.5 billion buy?
Here in the Federation, you can buy a standard destroyer plus a reduced version of the frigate. Starships in the prosperous Tang Dynasty were generally bigger and stronger, and correspondingly more expensive, so you could only buy destroyers, which at most added some energy and ammunition.
But here in Lightyear, you can buy two destroyers plus two frigates. Their combat power is comparable to that of Federation starships. There is no ambiguity at all. This price is simply cheaper than a second-hand starship that has been used for hundreds of years. Once star thieves such as Diamond King and Red Beard know about it, they will naturally flock to it.
Moreover, the light-year starship is fast and has extremely strong instant firepower. It can catch up with the starships of the next level. Its disadvantages are short range, high maintenance costs, and very simple defense. The armor attached to it has very high protection against energy weapons, but is much less effective against kinetic energy, gravity and other attacks. This makes the Lightyear Starship naturally suitable for activities within the Federation. After all, most Federation starships mainly use beam weapons.
Taken together, the combat power of a Lightyear starship is basically the same as that of a new Federation starship of the same level, and the force configuration is quite extreme. It is very suitable for the star pirates' fighting style of fighting if they can be defeated, and running away if they can't be defeated. The price is Cheaper than a second-hand starship, less than half of a new ship. Even so, Lightyear Starship's profit is still over 300%.
The quotation given by Chu Jungui was two destroyers plus two frigates, plus two basic energy tanks, which were full.
The red-haired beauty was very satisfied and said: "I should have bargained with you again, but I will probably not come back when I go to take revenge this time. In that case, instead of keeping the money for my relatives who have never met If we divide it, why not leave more for you. Who made you look good, haha!"
"Do you still have the video of the last battle? Can you show it to me?"
"Do you want to see how miserable my death is?"
"No, it's just to evaluate the enemy's combat effectiveness and fighting methods so that we can make targeted modifications to the new batch of starships."
Redbeard laughed and said, "Are you so afraid of my death?"
"Yes." Chu Jungui said seriously, "A good customer like you should be taken seriously."
The red-haired beauty glared at Chu Jungui and said, "What if you didn't say the second half of the sentence? You fool!"
"Providing value-for-money and high-quality services has always been our goal." Chu Jungui just learned this from investment banking elites.
"Come on, don't do this! Let's put it this way, I went there with the determination to die anyway. Isn't it right to live happily before death? So you don't need to play these little tricks. Two bottles of good wine can do it. I’ve got it done!”
Xino's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "Two bottles? No problem!"
The red-haired beauty glanced at him disdainfully and said, "If it were you, see if I'll get drunk after drinking a dozen bottles!"
Chu Jungui stretched out his hand, "Battle image."
The red-haired beauty sighed and said, "You can watch it if you want! To be honest, I really don't want to think about that battle."
She sent the image over, and Chu Jungui finished browsing it instantly. How could that battle be just a close defeat as she said? It was clearly a complete defeat, almost a one-sided massacre!
Although the number of starships she faced was not large, and their tonnage was not large, and they looked like the size of ordinary destroyers, the performance displayed by these starships was extremely powerful and balanced. In terms of combat power, although the Red Beard side has two light cruisers, they are both old and second-hand goods worth more than 5,000 points, and they are not superior to the newly built standard destroyers. Based on the battle image assessment, Chu Jungui found that the combat power of the opponent's four destroyers was more than 8,000, which was already equivalent to a high-end military light cruiser. Moreover, the four starships cooperated with each other tacitly, had flexible tactics, and appeared suddenly, catching Redbeard off guard. Therefore, the final result was 8:0, and Redbeard only escaped with 2 starships.
Regardless of equipment, intelligence, logistics or command, the opponent has shown a crushing advantage. Redbeard's intention here is not to seek revenge, but to commit suicide. In Chu Jungui's assessment, she couldn't do it even if she wanted to die together. However, a sign on these starships caught Chu Jungui's attention, that was Mount Bilinde.
"It turns out to be the Bilinde Group. How could you rob them?" Chu Jungui asked.
The Bilinde Group is a specialized military-industrial military group, and its own troops are extremely well-equipped, far exceeding those of the federal regular army. The combat power of ordinary star thieves is not comparable to that of ordinary regular armies. They will run around when they see regular armies, let alone Bilinde's legion. Redbeard's approach is like a robber with only a kitchen knife in his hand, but he robs a special forces soldier who is armed to the teeth.
If it weren't for the fierce firepower of the three starships from Lightyear, Redbeard wouldn't even be able to escape from the two high-speed starships.
"It turns out to be Bilinde, so our agreement needs to be changed." Chu Jun returned.
The red-haired woman was startled, then showed anger, "What, are you afraid? Afraid of getting into trouble? That's fine, I won't buy it! I won't cause any trouble to you!"
Chu Jungui was not angry and said calmly: "I want to know, even if it is faced with that small fleet of Bilinde, these starships you bought will definitely fail. Are you committing suicide? Why?"
The red-haired woman's eyes suddenly turned red. She looked up at the sky and said, "It's very simple. Those who liked me and those who liked me were all gone in that battle. And my cheap dad, I have never called him He called me dad, but in order to let me escape, he drove his fighter plane directly into the opponent's starship! Are these reasons enough?"
Chu Jungui nodded and said, "Revenge is enough, suicide is not enough."
"Are you annoyed? If you have anything to say, please tell me!"
"Last question, in addition to 1.5 billion, can you still spend 500 million?"
Redbeard originally wanted to scold his mother, but when he saw Chu Jungui's serious look, he suppressed his anger and said, "You should be able to figure it out. What do you want to do?"
Chu Jungui said: "I need to see the cash in the account."
Without saying anything, the beauty directly opened the communication channel, and a soft and delicate voice sounded from the other side: "Gina, is that you?"
"Call me Redbeard!"
"Okay, Ji...Red Beard. Why are you looking for me all of a sudden?"
"I want to die, but the funeral expenses are still 500 million short. Can you lend me some?"
The man opposite was startled. As soon as he asked what happened, he was interrupted impatiently by the red beard: "Do you want to borrow it? Just be sure!"
"Borrow, of course! But don't do anything stupid!"
"Then pay it to my account quickly. I'll be waiting. Don't talk nonsense about the rest. By the way, after I die, the money won't be repaid!"
Almost as soon as she finished speaking, there was an extra 500 million in her account. Redbeard suddenly felt a little apologetic, and his voice became gentler, and said, "I can't pay back the money. You should find a good woman quickly and forget about me."
After saying that, she cut off the communication without waiting for a response.
Red Beard took a deep breath and said, "Now that you have the money, tell me, what do you want to do?"
Chu Jungui said: "This 500 million can purchase an additional service provided by Light Year. Your new fleet will be piloted by my people. And I will personally command this battle against Linde."
Red Beard stared at Chu Jungui, suddenly laughed, and said: "According to the normal way of picking up girls, shouldn't we just add one yuan to provide the above services? How can you ask for 500 million for just asking like this?"
"500 million is a bit much to pick up girls." Chu Jungui made a rare joke.
Redbeard snorted and turned to look at Xino: "Boy, do you have two bottles of good wine?"
"No." Xino looked blank.
