Zhao Chen's excitement gradually faded.
Scrolling further down, almost everything was T1 Starships.
The exchange conditions weren't high; one mission point and dozens of system points were enough to exchange for a T1 product.
But the problem was, Zhao Chen didn't fancy these T1 Starships. Although, according to Zhao Chen's understanding, these system Starships all surpassed their counterparts of the same class and type in reality, making them extremely cost-effective Starships.
However, no matter how cost-effective or powerful, they were still T1 Starships.
The old Starships Zhao Chen had assembled were already T2-class Starships, so how could he possibly build a T1-class Starship again?
But the problem was, currently, the mall only sold T1 technology-level products.
“Let's see how to upgrade it. If it's T2-class, it's fine, but T1-class is really too weak.” Zhao Chen immediately searched for how to upgrade the system mall.
“T1 System Mall Upgrade Conditions: First, exchange one T1-class item (Not Completed).
Second: Complete one D-class system mission (Completed).
Third: Spend 100 system points to upgrade the mall (Requires satisfying the first two requirements).”
So there were upgrade conditions.
Zhao Chen's duel with Zhang Haoran before was due to a D-class system mission, so it was considered successfully completed.
Zhao Chen now had enough system points for 100.
The only requirement not met was exchanging for a T1-class item.
“This brings me back to square one; I still have to exchange for a T1 product.” Zhao Chen frowned.
He thought for a moment, and suddenly a light bulb went off in his head.
If he exchanged for a T1 Starship, he didn't necessarily have to build it himself; he could sell it!
Excellent Starship technology had always been very popular, but due to its preciousness, few people sold it.
Zhao Chen didn't have such concerns. Although direct sales didn't yield as much profit as building and then selling, Zhao Chen didn't have that much time to bother with it now. It was better to just sell it directly and make a quick buck.
“If I suddenly bring out a T1 Starship technology to sell, even though it's the lowest-level T1 Starship technology, as a student, I'll inevitably attract attention. I need to conceal my identity first.
Selling a Starship while concealing my identity, and it needs to be simple and hassle-free...” Zhao Chen pondered.
Suddenly, he thought of someone.
Li Wei!
Li Wei's family was in the interstellar trade business, with a corporate group called 'Northern Goose Interstellar Trade Group'. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
It was said that in recent years, they had been expanding into the Starship arms trade, but the several Starship products they had funded for research and development had not been very successful, with very few orders.
When Zhao Chen chatted with Li Wei before, Li Wei casually mentioned that if they still couldn't produce a popular Starship product before the end of this year, their Li family might have to give up the Starship sales business.
Isn't this a ready-made opportunity?
Having Li Wei act as an intermediary could also reduce the risk of exposing his identity.
Zhao Chen immediately accessed the academy's network and began to search for information on Li Wei's family's Starship trade business.
Over the past five years, Li Wei's family had launched a total of six Starships, including both support-type and combat-type Starships, but without exception, all of them failed.
Either there were significant performance flaws, or the cost-effectiveness was very poor.
The worst one sold less than ten Starships before being complained about due to performance defects and halted production, also paying a large sum in compensation.
Even the best-selling one only sold less than a hundred Starships, and it was still a loss-making venture to gain publicity, but it also failed to achieve success.
Zhao Chen began to quickly browse and research, looking for the most suitable Starship model for Li Wei's family, and then comparing it with the T1 Starships in the system mall.
“The construction difficulty for this one is a bit high...”
“This one won't do; the market scope is too small...”
Finally, after Zhao Chen's careful selection, he finally chose a T1 Starship technology.
“This is it!” Zhao Chen clicked to exchange.
“Do you want to spend 50 system points and one mission point to exchange for the product ‘t1 wolf louse-class medium interstellar destroyer’?”
“Confirm.”
“Congratulations on obtaining the ‘t1 ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ wolf louse-class medium interstellar destroyer’ technical blueprint.”
“Your remaining system points: 350 points.”
Zhao Chen's mind jolted, and then a string of Starship technical blueprints emerged in his sea of consciousness.
This was the t1 wolf louse-class medium interstellar destroyer!
Don't underestimate this T1 Starship. This was carefully selected by Zhao Chen. If he didn't currently have the Blizzard Zero and the T3 Blizzard-class Light Interstellar Battlecruiser technical blueprints, he might even consider building this Starship himself.
Its advantages were good quality and low price! Durable and robust!
At this moment, the gentle female voice of the Starship system AI sounded.
‘Beep, beep, beep, Captain, someone on the Starship's external network is requesting to connect and communicate with you. The system identifies them as your classmate ‘Li Wei’.
Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.
Zhao Chen's mouth curved upwards, revealing the expression of a cunning merchant.
Little Li, don't blame me for being a demanding negotiator.
Even among brothers, accounts must be settled clearly. If this Starship is sold to your Li family, it can definitely make your Li family famous in the Starship arms trade, especially in the T1 Starship series.
“Tell him to wait for me outside; I'll be right out.” Zhao Chen instructed the AI, and he himself got off the bed, preparing to leave the Starship.
Before that, he instructed Vice Captain Charlotte to be on standby on the Starship. Without his command, no crew member was allowed to leave the Blizzard Zero, nor was anyone allowed to enter the Blizzard Zero.
If there was any emergency, she was to contact him immediately.
Outside the Starship berth, Li Wei was staring with glowing eyes at the colossal steel Starship before him. The Blizzard Zero was nearly 260 meters long; because it adopted the hull of an Interstellar Battleship, its size was considerable.
Looking at the somewhat rusty hull armor and the very dated hull design.
Li Wei, however, felt as if he was looking at a majestic Starship.
It was just a pity that the 1200mm caliber cannon mounted on it was concealed and couldn't be seen now.
At this moment, the Starship's hatch opened, and Zhao Chen walked out leisurely.
Li Wei quickly stepped forward and immediately put his arm around Zhao Chen's neck: “When did you, little brat, put together such a Starship?”
“Don't you know? It's just those three Starships assembled from the academy exchanges,” Zhao Chen said.
“I mean, when did you get this kind of technology?!” Li Wei pressed.
Zhao Chen shrugged and smiled: “While someone was chasing girls, playing games, and relaxing, I was reading books, you know.”
“You were reading Starship engineering books all along!” Li Wei looked at Zhao Chen suspiciously. The previous Zhao Chen was indeed a very diligent student, at least in theory, he had always been among the top five in their Class Eight.
So Li Wei didn't doubt Zhao Chen's excuse, he just didn't expect Zhao Chen to have learned to this extent on his own.
“Big brother, let me go up and take a look; preferably at that 1200mm caliber cannon!” Li Wei pleaded.
“It's not impossible, but I need you to do me a favor.” Zhao Chen looked at Li Wei, feeling as if he was looking at a big rich man right now.
“Are you talking about my collection of action-romance blockbusters, encompassing 720 races and totaling 10,000T in size?!” Li Wei looked at Zhao Chen with a grin, then leaned into his ear and chuckled mischievously: “I'll give them all to you. I've also collected a few particularly great films recently; we can discuss them together then!”
Zhao Chen immediately jumped three meters away, looking at Li Wei with disdain: “Do I look like that kind of person?”
