Chapter 36： Last run and preparation

Chapter 36 The last business run and preparation

Although it is only a team and not a legion, the Jialan team is on par with the legion in this respect.

Peripheral members did not report loss, ordinary members reported loss rate 10%, elite members reported loss rate 15%, core members reported loss rate 25%, team leader and deputy team leader reported loss rate 30%.

The so-called loss report refers to the loss of the battleship due to team behavior, and the loss will be reimbursed according to the percentage of the total price of the battleship.

For example, Li Qing has a fully equipped frigate with a total price of 150 million, and the loss rate of core members is 25%. If the warship sinks due to team combat, the team will reimburse him 25% of the total price of 150 million, a total of 37.5 million.

If the insurance is added with a maximum loss of 25%, the maximum reimbursement can be 50%.

Note that the premise of this loss report is due to team actions, such as team activities, or being sunk by invading enemies in the team-controlled galaxy site, etc. When the grave was accidentally sunk, etc., by the way, Li Lie's running a business was a private act, so Shen's six destroyer team would not report it, only the insurance can reimburse part of it.

Li Qing didn't stay in the Canaan Galaxy for long. After getting a general understanding of the team's situation and getting to know many core and important middle-level members of the team, he left the Canaan Galaxy and returned to the outpost.

In fact, most of the members of the team are not in the Canaan galaxy. They either travel to and from Jinmen and the outpost base to make money, or they control the star field for mining in the team. The combined fleets of the Ta tribes fought and so on.

There are quite a lot of team activities, but most of them are small activities jointly organized by team members. In fact, there are very few business running activities to collect enough goods of two trillion stars, usually once a year.

Back to the outpost, Li Lie and others already knew that he joined Jialan and had become one of Jialan's core members.

In the communication channel, Li Lie had a complicated expression and sighed:

"I joined Jialan earlier than you, and now I am only a middle-level person. As soon as you enter, you are a high-level person. It is really infuriating."

Li Qing shrugged, but did not speak.

However, Li Lie just sighed, he was in a very good mood, and within a minute of struggling, he talked with him enthusiastically about the information he had learned at the outpost these days.

"In the past few days, the price of food in the outpost has dropped a bit. When we go back and forth for four months, it is estimated that the price will be lower and the profit will not be much. The most profitable and most durable products on the base are all kinds of finished warships."

"A bare frigate can sell for 20 million in Jinmen, and 25 million here, with a profit of about 5 million."

"The key thing is that there is a huge demand for this thing. There are wars every day in the joint battle area between the outpost base and the Shata tribe, and there are battle losses every day. This thing needs as much as there is. Unlike food that will be saturated, this will not be saturated, even if It will be lacking in a hundred years, so it can be done for a long time.”

At this time, Li Qi, who had been silent all this time, said:

"But the threshold for this requirement is too high. Where can we find so many warships?"

"This is the most troublesome place."

Li Lie sighed and said:

"Now the channels for selling warships in Jinmen are mostly the private shipyards of some players, except for the official Jinmen shipyard. Although the output of the official shipyard is high, there are too many people ordering it. It is impossible for us to resell the ships to make money. Find some private shipyards."

"However, the output of private shipyards is not high, and the price is about 10% higher than the market price. Only if several private shipyards can be found to contract all the warships they produce will they make some money."

Li Qi shook his head and said:

"That's impossible. The private shipyards in Jinmen have long united to form a chamber of commerce to jointly manipulate prices. We can't get involved in this small fight."

"It's a pity."

"Is shipbuilding so profitable?"

Li Qing muttered to himself.

What he thought of was that if a frigate on the outpost base could be sold for 25 million star dollars, it would cost about 21 million to 22 million star dollars to buy directly from Jinmen, and one frigate could only earn about 3 million.

But he has a super dock on hand, the cost of a ship is only about 16 million, and selling it to the outpost can earn as much as 9 million.

One can earn 9 million, ten can earn 90 million, one hundred can earn 900 million, and one thousand can earn 9 billion.

"Well, frigates still earn too little."

But that's what I said, but Li Qing was already moved.

There is no other reason, it is just that I don’t want to run the business all the time.

One trip lasts four months, three trips a year, and all the time is spent running back and forth, with nothing else to do.

Changing to shipbuilding is different. The shipyard is in the palm universe. As long as you prepare enough ship blueprints and materials, you can build a ship, and it doesn't affect him to do other things.

Key shipbuilding can also improve his shipbuilding level. Now he can only build frigates, and the efficiency of making money is limited. When he can build destroyers, cruisers, and even battleships, it will be the beginning of big profits.

"Okay, that's it!"

Li Qing made up his mind, and looked up at Li Lie and Li Qi in the communication channel. They were the only two in the channel, representing their respective small teams. He thought carefully about his rhetoric and said:

"I'm going to take you to run again, earn another wave, and then I'm going to find a galaxy near the team-controlled star field to build a mining base on the outpost side."

Both Li Lie and Li Qi were a little surprised, but not too surprised. This was what they expected, but they didn't expect him to quit so soon.

Li Lie thought for a while and said:

"Since it's the last time, it's better to make a big wave and help the team build a super caravan like before."

Li Qi also said:

"And by doing so, you can also improve your prestige and status in the team."

Li Qing shook his head when he heard this, and said:

"no."

"Why not, and we have to pay 100 billion in tolls every time. It is better to earn this money for others than for you."

Li Qing smiled and said:

"Do you think that 100 billion is just tolls?"

In the past, he also thought it was tolls, but since he became a core member of Jialan, he also knew some inside stories that only the core members knew.

For example, before they paid 100 billion to ask the Blue Fish Clan among the 16 clans of the Lester Pirate Group to **** them through the star field controlled by the Lester Pirate Group. It's not just about buying road money, the focus is on supporting the Blue Fish Clan in a reasonable way.

The reason is very simple. The establishment of the Blue Fish Clan has something to do with the Jinmen Yu Clan.

To put it bluntly, the Lester Pirate Group used to have only thirteen clans. Since humans established an outpost in the Zutar star field and launched a war with the Shata Tribal United Civilization, players can join the Lester Pirate Group camp. The Jinmen Yu clan decisively invested a large amount of human resources to gain prestige in the Lester Pirate Group and formed a new pirate clan.

There is a force of its own in the pirate group that is not inferior to the United Civilization of the Shata Tribe, and it has a good relationship with this force, which can play a huge role in certain critical moments.

So this money cannot be saved, nor can he earn it.

Of course, he can't tell this kind of secret directly, but Li Lie and Li Qi are both smart people, he just mentioned them a little bit and they understood, and he didn't insist anymore.

However, the team can’t make money from this, but other people’s money can be made. When you return to Jinmen, you can find a large caravan to cooperate with once, and you can make money once.

Two months later, a medium-sized fleet sailed into the Jinmen galaxy.

The fleet was moored at the star port, and everyone went their separate ways to prepare.

Li Qing directly accesses the regional channel, connects to the network, and directly searches for what he wants on the trading platform.

First of all, 5.2 billion star dollars were spent to purchase 10 small transport ships, 10 medium transport ships, 5 mammoth class large transport ships, and 1 ferry **** class super large transport ship.

And a total of 6 billion star dollars purchased 5 small industrial ships, 2 medium industrial ships, 2 large industrial ships, and 1 super large industrial ship.

Then there are 30 large mining ships, which cost a total of 24 billion stars.

Three sets of large-scale crushing, screening and refining ore equipment, with a unit price of 1.1 billion, a total of 3.3 billion.

All together, a total of 38.5 billion stars was spent, leaving 67 billion stars.

Then, set aside 5 billion star dollars for salary and emergency use, and use all the remaining funds to purchase blueprints and construction materials for frigates and destroyers. A total of 2,000 frigate blueprints and materials were purchased, which cost 4 billion + 24 billion stars respectively. Yuan.

In addition to the 500 frigates purchased before to build a full set, a lot has been built these days, and now there are 400 sets left, a total of 2400 sets and 100 finished frigates are parked in the dock of the palm universe.

and 200 destroyer blueprints and materials cost 3 billion + 18 billion star dollars respectively, a total of 21 billion star dollars.

Then, five super-large cold storages were ordered, as well as various foods worth nearly 500 million yuan, and living supplies worth 1 billion yuan.

Then, through the relationship of the Jialan team, at a price of 750 million stars, he directly obtained four top-equipped hurricane-class destroyers from Yu's shipyard. The weapon configuration was the same as the hurricane-class destroyer he had. Mainly kinetic weapons.

Then spent 130 million star yuan below the market price to equip a complete set of Haiyan frigate configuration, and took a total of 20 sets, which can be directly installed on the frigate he already has.

The four destroyers cost 3 billion, and the 20 frigates are fully equipped with a total of 2.6 billion stars.

Then, I bought 100 base L-slot kinetic energy main gun shells, and spent a total of 200 million star dollars.

300 radix L-slot large moving shells cost a total of 240 million stars.

1000 radix M medium-sized kinetic energy shells cost a total of 300 million star dollars.

5,000 radix S small-scale moving shells cost a total of 750 million star dollars.

1000 radix cannon shells shelled, a total cost of 750 million stars.

200 radix P slot anti-dismantling bullets cost a total of 200 million stars.

Combined, the total is 2.44 billion stars.

Then I bought 50,000 energy blocks containing 100,000 standard energy. In addition to quickly recharging the energy shield, this thing can also be used in many ways. One hundred thousand star yuan, 50,000 pieces, a total of 5 billion star yuan.

Comprehensively, the total cost is 24 billion + 21 billion + 500 million + 1 billion + 3 billion + 2.6 billion + 2.44 billion + 5 billion, a total of 59.54 billion stars.

Most of the remaining 67 billion star dollars were spent at once, leaving only 7.46 billion star dollars.

Then, they spent 1 billion star yuan to order a medium-sized steel refining furnace, and 1.5 billion star yuan to order a medium-sized alloy melting furnace.

Steel refining furnace can further refine refined ore into steel, and alloy melting furnace can smelt steel and other elements into stronger alloys, and can also melt collected warship wreckage into alloys.

From collecting raw ore, crushing and refining it into refined ore, then refining it into steel, then melting it into alloy, and finally sending it to the arsenal in the high-dimensional shipyard in the palm universe, and directly processing it into various shells.

One step in place, saving a lot of money to buy ammunition back and forth.

Soon Li Qing discovered that the remaining 4.9 billion star dollars might not survive, and he had to recruit a group of shipbuilding engineers.

Prepared 2,400 sets of frigate blueprints and materials, and the scale must be expanded. Otherwise, only ten ships can be built in one round, and 2,400 ships will need 240 rounds, which means 240 months. This will take a long time to build.

"Expand, must expand!"

Still through the relationship of the Jialan team, a large number of crew members were directly recruited in the Jinmen Academy area.

Among them, there are ten groups of destroyer shipbuilding engineers, including 1 chief engineer with a monthly salary of 2 million, and 40 senior engineers who build destroyers with a monthly salary of 300,000, a total of 12 million monthly salary.

The frigate shipbuilding team has also been greatly expanded, from the original ten groups to one hundred groups at one go.

Recruited 9 chief engineers with a monthly salary of 1.2 million, a total of 10.8 million, 200 frigate senior engineers with a monthly salary of 200,000, a total of 40 million, common crew members for all types of ships, regardless of frigate or battleship, a total of 3,600 were recruited name, with a total monthly salary of 144 million.

It is worth mentioning that the salary of the ordinary shipbuilding engineers he recruited was 50,000 a month, but he recruited directly from the academy city through the relationship of the Yu family. Saved a lot of money straight away.

After all the recruits are recruited, his monthly salary alone is as high as 208.8 million stars.

The buyout price of 1,550 clone crew members is 310 million, plus the crew salaries and maintenance costs of 5 destroyers and 21 frigates are 11.25 million + 21 million, a total of 32.25 million. The total salary is 241.05 million stars.

"A monthly salary of 240 million stars"

Li Qing counted his current net worth, and insisted that he would be out of money after two years.

No wonder it is said that war burns money. Once the cannon fires, ten thousand taels of gold is paid. One shell destroys the salary of an ordinary person for a month. It is really difficult to raise a fleet.

He only has 26 ships, and he doesn’t have any big ships yet. It costs 32.25 million stars to maintain the fleet every month.

Those teams with hundreds of large and small warships may spend more than a billion or even billions a month to maintain the fleet, which is simply terrifying.

The more it develops and grows, the more it feels that the money is not enough.

Fortunately, although the cost is high, the profit is also good. The 2,400 frigates and 200 destroyers are all built and sold, and the profits are immediately huge.

If you don’t sell the Jinmen side, you can sell the outpost. One frigate can earn nearly 10 million, and 2400 ships can earn 24 billion.

The destroyer is even more profitable, saving the use fee of the shipyard and various channel fees. A destroyer can earn about 30 million, and an additional 30% or 45 million can be earned when transported to the outpost. The total can earn about 75 million, 200 ships Destroyers earn 15 billion.
