Far from the outskirts of the city, Han Lang was taken to a dilapidated salvage ship. The ship quickly took off and entered the dark space. At this time, Han Lang finally saw the leader of the salvage workers in the warehouse of the salvage ship.
They seemed to be very ordinary workers. Due to years of work their hands were full of calluses. They were wearing overalls and leather boots. There was also a middle-aged woman among them.
"Mr. Han, I'm sorry to bring you to outer space." The oldest elder ordered his men to give Han Lang a chair. He said in a deep voice: "Old Fulin's men are everywhere on the ground. Only on the ship will you not be monitored by Old Fulin."
Han Lang nodded and smiled: "I understand you very well. It's not easy to live under someone else's roof."
The old man nodded and sat opposite to Han Lang: "My name is Lynch. I'm the representative of the salvage workers. I heard that you want a large number of robots. How many exactly?"
Han Lang seriously replied: "No matter how many you have, I want all of them."
Hula ~
The workers behind him were boiling. Perhaps it was because of Han Lang's generosity.
Lynch frowned and asked: "Are you serious? Do you want to buy all the sets of robots? "
Han Lang nodded and said faintly, "Not just a complete set. As long as it's related to robots, even if it's just a screw, I want it all. After all, robots will always be damaged in long-term use, and parts can't be lacking."
"But it will cost a lot of money, you …"
Shua ~
Han Lang gently stroked the Moon Scar with his finger and took out a blueprint. He placed it in Lynch's hand and said, "This is the blueprint for an Incas frigate. You can easily sell it for more than eight billion Star Coins at any exchange in the galaxy."
The price of the blueprint was set according to the price of the finished product. The general price of the Yincas class frigate was 150 million star coins. If the shipyard had the blueprint, they could easily manufacture two or three of them in a month. In a few years, the cost of the blueprint would be earned back. Therefore, the price of the blueprint was 8 billion star coins. If there was a good buyer, it could be sold for 12 to 15 billion star coins.
The salvage workers were shocked. Lynch stood up and looked at Han Lang: "Please wait a moment. It's a matter of great importance. We need to discuss it."
"Easy." Han Lang smiled and made an inviting gesture.
In the blink of an eye, the workers left the room, leaving only a 12 or 13-year-old girl behind. She poured Han Lang a cup of tea and found some seemingly cheap sealed snacks.
Han Lang frowned slightly as he looked at the little girl's hand and said, "What happened to your hand? If it's not treated properly, it'll leave a scar, which won't be pretty. This is a tube of healing agent. Spray it on the wound twice a day. It's very effective. "
The little girl took the healing potion shyly and held it in her hands. She instantly felt much closer to Han Lang.
The foremen outside were talking loudly. It seemed that the foremen had a disagreement and had an intense argument.
"What are they arguing about?" Han Lang asked curiously.
"Grandpa Lynch wants to sell you the robots that we have hidden outside the castle. But it will be against the law. Old Fulin will find trouble for us." The little girl felt that Han Lang was a good person, so she told him the truth.
"Law?" Han Lang was puzzled: "Is there a law in the Wild Star Region?"
"Yes, there is a law made by Old Fulin. We who are responsible for the salvage can't sell the robots. We can't even sell the parts. We have to go through the dealers in the market. The dealers have to pay taxes to Old Fulin first. The rest is ours." The little girl said.
"Is the tax high?"
"Well, the dealers get 5% and Old Fulin gets 80%."
Han Lang frowned. The tax rate was really ruthless. The salvage workers worked so hard but they only got 15% of the profit? In other words, a set of robots was only worth 1500 star coins.
It was important to know that the operation of the salvage ship cost money. Moreover, most of the robot parts were salvaged. Many women and children needed to assemble the parts into a set before they could be sold. The little girl's hand should have been cut by the sharp parts of the robot parts.
They worked so hard to earn so little money? Han Lang felt that the workers were not worth it.
Phew ~
Han Lang breathed a sigh of relief. He was just a passerby. How could he care so much? Lawlessness was the way to survive in the Wild Star Region. Even if Han Lang saw the unfairness of this place, he couldn't provide much help to the salvage workers.
Soon, Lynch returned to the room with the foremen. It seemed that they had reached an agreement. It was not difficult to see from the nervous expressions on most of their faces that they had taken a great risk.
"It's all been discussed. We have a huge batch of robots. It's very messy, and most of them are spare parts. We didn't have time to count them, so we don't know the exact number. We can only tell you that this batch of goods is no less than 200,000 cubic meters." Lynch swallowed his saliva and said seriously.
200,000 cubic meters!?
Han Lang was startled. Sure enough, it was a large number of robots. If a robot was dismantled into parts and occupied a cubic meter of space then there were at least 200,000 robots.
Moreover, in addition to engineering robots, there were also more advanced combat robots and maintenance robots.
Han Lang nodded: "Very well, I want all of them. I also want to find some logic chips. If you have them I can pay a high price."
Lynch smiled bitterly and said, To tell you the truth, we really don't have a single logic chip. Back then, a prehistoric civilization's cargo ship fell nearby. Although it's true that the cargo ship was carrying robots, the prehistoric civilization would extract all the robots' logic chips when they were transporting the robots.
"Over the years, we have found four complete logic chips. All of them have been handed over to Old Fulin. The ones with the logic chips are the working robots on the cargo ships. The other robots are just goods."
Han Lang felt that it was a pity. When the Prehistoric Civilization shipped the robots, they would extract the logic chips from them. Therefore, most of the robots did not have logic chips. Only the robots that worked on the ships, such as sweeping and maintaining the battleship, had logic chips.
"Forget it. These non-intelligent robots will help me a lot. Let's talk about the deal." Han Lang said helplessly.
Lynch said: "I will give you a location. Wait for us there after you leave Darkflow castle. We will trade in space. Right, bring your cargo ship with you."
.....
Han Lang didn't have a cargo ship but he had an armed mining ship. The ship was used to load the ore in a warehouse of up to one million square meters. It was enough to hold 200,000 cubic meters of robot parts.
At the moment, the armed mining ship was floating in space under the command of Yuan Yuan. Han Lang asked Yuan Yuan to send the coordinates to the mining ship.
Immediately, Han Lang went to the airport to pick up the Devil's Claw and left Darkflow castle.
Before leaving, the greedy tax officer took more than 20,000 star coins in taxes. Han Lang didn't have a good impression of the local ruler Old Fulin. But for Han Lang, money wasn't a problem so he didn't say anything.
Whoosh ~
After two hyperspace jumps, the Devil's Claw arrived at the designated pick-up point. After ten hours, Han Lang's armed mining ship also arrived. Two ships, one big and one small, were floating in space.
"Why aren't they here yet? Could something have happened? Han Lang thought to himself as he practiced the 46 Duets in the pilot's cabin.
Suddenly ~
While Han Lang was waiting anxiously, a tattered space shuttle drilled out of the hyperspace channel and hurriedly approached Han Lang. Judging from the state of the shuttle, there was no doubt that the pilot was a novice.
"Use the stagnation to entangle the beam! This ship is too reckless. It will collide with me! "
Han Lang hurriedly used the beam to entangle the shuttle. He slowly dragged it to the front of the Devil's Claw and then opened the docking cabin.
"Han Lang, please save Grandpa Lynch and my father!"
The one who came was not Lin Qi, but the little girl called Hu Niu that Han Lang had seen yesterday. There was also a young man even younger than her, and the shuttle was piloted by that young man. No wonder the shuttle was swaying all the way and almost crashed into Han Lang's Demon Claw.
"Don't worry. Tell me what happened." Han Lang took the two children to the cockpit and asked.
Ten minutes later, Han Lang finally figured out the cause and effect.
Due to long-term exploitation by Old Fulin, the salvage workers led by Lynch hid half of the harvest from the space salvage operation in order to survive. After a long time, they had saved 200,000 cubic meters of robot parts.
Robots were taboo in the galaxy. Although some people bought them, but no one dared to buy them in large quantities like Han Lang. Therefore, although Lynch had saved a large number of robot parts, there was no way to sell them.
At this time, Han Lang came and claimed that he wanted to purchase a large number of robots. So Lynch took Han Lang to outer space to discuss the matter. Han Lang's sincerity made Lynch very excited. Although it was risky, they decided to sell the robot parts they had accumulated for a long time to Han Lang.
As a result, Han Lang and Lynch reached an agreement. Lynch went back to find people to move the hidden robot parts. After all, it was a large number of goods. Using hundreds of labor force was not a problem.
As soon as they returned to Underflow Castle, Old Fulin's army broke in and arrested dozens of foremen. They also closely monitored the salvage workers.
Hu Niu and her brother Xiao Bao were children, so they avoided Old Fulin's soldiers and secretly drove a shuttle to find Han Lang. The father of Hu Niu and Xiao Bao was among the people who were arrested. The two children cried as soon as they saw Han Lang.
Han Lang frowned as he listened. Although he didn't need to be afraid of Old Fulin due to his cultivation and combat effectiveness, but the Wild Star Field wasn't his home field. Old Fulin also had more than a dozen battleships under his command, the largest of which was a caracal-class cruiser.
"Yuan Yuan, use the radar array to scan Underflow Castle. I want to know where Lynch is being held and how Old Fulin is going to deal with them." Han Lang ordered Yuan Yuan.
Soon, Yuan Yuan said in a sad and indignant tone: "Master! Darkflow Castle has already issued an announcement that 58 foremen will be executed by cannon blast this afternoon! "
