Qu Jianlei saw that Gothel didn't seem to be joking, and his face straightened, "That's okay, but one Revenge card corresponds to one starship."
If you want me to help your entire camp fight the war, you are really overthinking it.
"Of course," Gothel replied without hesitation, "a mere thirty million is only enough for one starship!"
It must be admitted that, as the Supreme, he understands Qu Jianlei's mentality best.
Is the Supreme Being short of money? There is no shortage... but there is also a shortage. Everyone has seen that it is easy for Supreme to make money, but who knows how much it costs?
The expenses of Supreme itself are not small, and at the same time, they have to raise a group of people and put on a show...
The key is that Supreme also needs to collect various resources and treasures. Which of them does not cost money?
But unfortunately, most of the time, the Supreme Court has to put on airs when he appears, and it is too easy for people to laugh at him secretly when talking about money.
Gothel understood this and simply accepted it.
He smiled and said, "I heard that you sell revenge cards. I'll buy ten of them."
"Ten pieces!" The big-headed butterfly began to turn again, "That's 300 million, we can't discount it anymore."
Qu Jianlei was startled for a moment, then blinked his eyes twice and asked aloud, "Are you planning to drag me into the water?"
"If you want to go into the water, of course I welcome it," Gothel answered frankly, "but the question is... can you do it?"
Qu Jianlei shook his head and answered simply, "No, we are not interested in the interests here, it is just a place to stay."
This was not just for Gothel, there were so many people present.
Although everyone dare not approach the two Supreme Beings, there are really too many ways to hear the conversation between the two.
Gothel sighed inwardly, he really wanted to take this opportunity to tie Rhodiola's team into his own tank.
But the other party said this in public, making it clear that he had no intention of intervening. On the contrary, he gave the other party such an opportunity.
It’s a bit worth the loss! He knew this very well in his heart, but the Supreme... was not so easy to kidnap in the first place.
He calmed down and answered with a smile, "He also said that by freeing up some shares, he just saved... ten Revenge cards, right?"
"Buy less," Qu Jianlei replied sternly, "Ten is too many, I have to increase the price."
Others are offering large quantity discounts, but he actually wants to increase the price.
However, this is not surprising. The Purcell Consortium is obviously caught in a dispute between the two camps.
Revenge by others is a low-probability event. As the main force of the Purcell Consortium, revenge is a high-probability event, and the difficulty is also much higher.
However, Qu Jianlei took the initiative to ask the other party to buy less, which was a disguised way of emphasizing to everyone that his team did not want to be drawn into this vortex.
"I knew that was the case," Gothel was not surprised and just shook his head, "Then... three revenge cards."
The Purcell Consortium has a lot of money, but it was not picked up by a strong wind. The other party insisted not to intervene, and the three revenge cards were enough.
After all, although the consortium is large, there are only a few important people, so there is no need to add too much double insurance.
Anyway, he bought three revenge cards in front of everyone, basically announcing his close relationship with the Rhodiola team.
The next day, ship 8384 took off and disappeared into the vast space.
More than a day later, two heavily loaded merchant ships arrived, with thick armor and numerous weapon platforms.
Someone recognized the origin of the merchant ship, "It's actually a merchant ship from the Stars Consortium!"
After the merchant ship landed, they rested for five days, caught up with a big gathering, and left.
But well-informed people noticed, and the Zhongxing Consortium also asked people to inquire about the behavior and whereabouts of the Rhodiola rosea team.
After leaving Lanyun Market, ship 8384 stayed in the head and neck area for a few days before leaving the asteroid belt and sailing to the transit star.
Everyone was about to leave the starport when the guard said, "Sir, the Anti-Smuggling Department would like to ask you to wait for a moment."
Qu Jianlei and others didn't respond. Claire asked, "What's going on?"
The guard hesitated and said, "Maybe he is the top official of the Anti-Smuggling Department and wants to make an appointment with you."
Not long after, Sharif rushed over, "Thankfully I came early, otherwise I wouldn't have known where to look for you."
The Rhodiola group is good at everything, except that after leaving the star port, all communications are usually closed, making it too difficult to find them.
Qu Jianlei smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be so free...don't you need to sit in Tianbing anymore?"
"Oh, don't mention it," Sharif replied with a frown, "The entire star field is in a smog... who's not here?"
"What are you asking him for?" Qu Jianlei replied casually, "You are not familiar with him, and he has a bad temper."
While everyone was chatting, they walked out of the parking area. Sharif drove out his large off-road vehicle again this time.
The off-road vehicle took them to a hotel not far from the anti-smuggling department.
The last time Sharif hosted Qu Jianlei, it was in this hotel. The quality of the food was pretty good and the infrastructure was also top-notch.
When arranging accommodation, Sharif followed Qu Jianlei to the VIP room, "Have you heard about Tian Rui?"
Qu Jianlei glanced at him, then nodded slightly, "I heard that Ran Bingluan's gang is indeed cruel."
Sharif tilted his head and looked at him seriously, "Can you handle it?"
Qu Jianlei was stunned for a moment, then rolled his eyes, "Don't tell me whether you can or not. Give me a reason to deal with him."
Sharif smiled bitterly and said, "It's paid, you can mention whatever conditions you want... You also have a special pass from the Anti-Smuggling Department."
"Don't even think about it," Qu Jianlei shook his head without hesitation, "The pass is our reward for catching the wanted criminal, it's two different things."
"People can torment the Department of Alien Management to such a degree. No matter how arrogant we are, we will never make such an enemy...without any grievance or enmity."
Upon hearing this, Sharif sighed regretfully and couldn't help but emphasize again: The main reason is that the Anti-Smuggling Department lost another warship this time.
The last two battleships were destroyed by Rhodiola rosea. It is more or less reasonable to say that those two ships were retired.
Fortunately this time, one of the active warships was robbed, and in front of almost everyone.
Even if the Anti-Smuggling Department wants to falsely report losses, it doesn't have any maneuverability.
The loss is secondary. The Anti-Smuggling Department has a small treasury. The key is... it's so embarrassing.
The most hateful thing is that the Irregular Affairs Department actually caught on to this matter and thought that the Anti-Smuggling Department had screwed up everything.
The Anti-Smuggling Department is very angry about this - if we hadn't cooperated with the Special Affairs Department in the hunt, would the department's defense have been so lax?
The Alien Management Department's backhand stab was very hard, and they had a greater say in the hierarchy of imperial institutions.
The Anti-Smuggling Department is a relatively independent system, but it has few connections with other agencies, resulting in a low priority.
They can defend themselves, but obviously their voices are not as loud as those of the aliens.
Tian Rui's anti-smuggling department was offended and would definitely complain to the Star Territory Headquarters, accusing the alien affairs department of not being honest.
The headquarters has given instructions that there is no need to seriously cooperate with the Alien Affairs Department in the future - this kind of behavior is really hurtful.
It is precisely because of this that Sharif, as the only supreme leader in the ministry, found an excuse to come to the transit star.
This is the economic lifeline of the entire Star Territory. The Star Territory government will not sit back and let the alien management department do whatever they want. He can feel at ease hiding here.
However, at the same time, the anti-smuggling headquarters also needs to regain its position, allowing Sharif to find ways to restore his influence here.
So when he heard that the Rhodiola rosea team was back, he immediately came over.
Qu Jianlei shook his head when he heard this, "This is the fault of the Department of Foreign Affairs. Just be patient and watch their jokes. Why bother provoking a powerful enemy?"
Sharif sighed after hearing this, "Why don't I know this? But... the strong support from the Alien Management Department is coming."
Strong support? Qu Jianlei's heart moved when he heard that the Supreme Being could call him a strong support... "Is it the Supreme Being?"
"It's hard to say," Sharif shook his head. "They can borrow experts from organizations such as the Divine Literature Society. The Divine Literature Society will suffer a big loss this time."
"Shenwen Society..." Qu Jianlei smiled nonchalantly, but said nothing more.
Sharif gave a reminder, "Don't take it lightly. If those reinforcements come to the transit star, they may also forcibly recruit you."
The purpose of what he said was probably to show that cooperation with the Anti-Smuggling Department could eliminate some troubles.
But Qu Jianlei shook his head and said lightly, "I'm looking forward to seeing how they can commit suicide."
Sharif heard what he meant and couldn't help but look at him again, "You're not going to join forces with Ran Bingluan, are you?"
Qu Jianlei was silent, and after a while he hummed softly, "I'm actually looking forward to seeing how powerful the Supreme One is!"
After saying this, it was Sharif's turn to be silent. After a while, he spoke, "Okay, let's eat..."
The six of them stayed on the transit star for three days. Xiaohu contacted Paranoia again. This guy actually went to Tianrui Star.
Qu Jianlei was a little puzzled. If you could sneak across the border, where would you go but Tianrui?
But there is no other way, we have to bring the person back, right? 8384 can only set sail again to Tianrui.
Tianrui's interrogation is still very strict, but 8384's reputation has spread, and no one is unimpressed.
After Qu Jianlei and others landed, they discovered that Paranoid actually owned real estate in Tianrui.
This property is somewhat similar to the house Pierre rented, but the difference is that no one has rented it for a long time.
After all, Tianrui is really a bit old-fashioned, and many of the lively venues in the past are no longer visited.
The paranoid man came to Tianrui and made great efforts to find someone to repair the house, even pretending to live there permanently.
When Qu Jianlei and the other two approached him, he even suggested, "Why don't we just live here, there aren't many people around."
Qu Jianlei said in a dumbfounded voice, "You are so generous. The support from the Alien Management Department is already on the way. Let's go back to Tianbing."
The paranoid was startled when he heard this, and then frowned, "What can I do to Huitianpin?"
"You don't think that a little Earl Haiyin can stop the elites of the Alien Management Department and the Divine Wen Society, do you?"
Not even the Haiyin family? Qu Jianlei was a little surprised.
However, the other party is from the highest level in the system and must know the situation better than him.
However, "Then Tianrui is not a safe place...the key is that the 8384 ship is too eye-catching."
The paranoid pondered for a while and asked, "Where do you have somewhere to go?"
