Chapter 17 Persuasion
"What?!" Black Rose's surprised voice suddenly sounded in the bridge.
"...Why did you react so bigly?" Yang Yi was startled.
"Did Hydra say this?"
"Yes, there are a lot of basic common sense about ship girls, not just ship uniforms. It's just that she came here for ship uniforms." Yang Yi nodded, "What's wrong?"
"Ah... damn." Black Rose said with a headache, "I should have known. That guy from the army would definitely cause trouble."
"What's the trouble?"
"Well, since Hydra has told you, I won't hide it from you." Black Rose sighed, "We ship girls do need ship uniforms to improve our combat effectiveness, but I strongly don't recommend that you do this."
"Huh? Why?" Yang Yi was stunned.
"What could be the reason? The ship equipment is obviously something that can greatly increase our combat effectiveness. How can it be cheap? Furthermore, the maintenance of the ship equipment itself is also quite expensive. My individual combat ship equipment is a quadruple rocket.
"Bullet launcher, do you know how much money it costs to fire this thing once?" Black Rose was furious, "She is from the army, so naturally she doesn't need to think about this kind of thing. After all, she is not a quartermaster. If it were changed
When the supply ship's wife hears these words, I'm afraid she'll be slapped in the face!"
"...Is it because it's too expensive that you didn't tell me?"
"I didn't tell you because we can neither use it nor build it now. Do you think it's useful for me to tell a private the principles of building a nuclear bomb?"
"Don't be so exaggerated. Tell me earlier so I can take it to heart and prepare."
"Your focus now should be on expanding the size of the fleet." Black Rose said helplessly, "If we have a battlecruiser for this mission, we don't need to put ourselves at risk and can just use orbital bombing.
We can wipe out most of the surface insect swarms, and then use us as sharp knives to organize an elite team to raid the insect nest and kill the insect mother, so we don’t have to wait so long.”
Yang Yi waved his hand quickly: "We can't afford to have a battlecruiser. Do you know how expensive the fusion core is? Not to mention the standard laser cannon array, fixed-point defense system, ship-to-ship missile launcher...
We also have to calculate the carrier-based air force, ship-based army armor carried by the battlecruiser, and generally be equipped with a planetary base kit that can be placed at any time..."
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, head. You are thinking too much. As long as there is a battle cruiser capable of kinetic energy and fighting, our life level will be enough to leap forward to a higher level. The battle cruiser not only represents a leap in combat effectiveness, but also
It’s a status symbol. Think about how many teams in the entire Port of the Dead have big guys like Battle Patrol?”
"you mean……"
"Battle patrols represent the level of strength, head. With battle patrols, more employers are willing to entrust tasks with higher rewards, and we are also able to rob fatter caravans. This is the beginning of a virtuous cycle. Although this cycle begins
It will be a little more difficult because of the high maintenance cost of the battle cruiser, but the days to come will only get better and better.”
"When we have enough money to build a second battle cruiser, we can choose a piece of land to officially settle down. Settling down is one of the important criteria for a large pirate group. When the time comes to find an asteroid to build a base, we will
He is one of the few top pirates who has the ability to enter the Port of the Dead."
The vision described by Black Rose is indeed beautiful - but it is based on the fact that the current environment will continue until they eventually become the top pirate group. But in fact, the insect swarm will soon sweep across the entire sector within the year, and the empire will be exhausted.
The waterway will shrink rapidly, and the pirate group will soon have no food to eat.
"...So, if there is a battle patrol, it is best to get it as soon as possible?"
"Well. The advantages of buying a battle cruiser outweigh the disadvantages... You don't happen to have a battle cruiser that you can buy, right?"
"Hmm...how do you know?"
"Boss, you have this written all over your face. But I feel like you don't really want to buy this ship... Could it be the big guy parked outside the space station?"
Yang Yi was stunned for a moment: "Why do you know everything?"
"Even a drunkard can guess this." Black Rose rolled her eyes, "If this is the case, we have to think about it carefully. The price of that ship will not be low..."
"It's actually not expensive. It's just the reward for our mission plus a favor..."
“Then you must buy it!”
"Stop!" Yang Yi quickly stopped her, "Should I make the decision or you? Don't you think about how long it will take for us to repay this favor? By then, even if that guy asks us to rush into Char and die, we will still have to go.
, are you really planning to risk your own life for this thing?"
Upon seeing this, Black Rose quickly advised: "Boss, you have to think carefully about the virtuous circle I just mentioned. After the virtuous circle develops to a certain extent, this kind of favor will only become easier, not harder. At least think about it, don't
Directly refuse..."
Suddenly, Black Rose paused, then glanced at the communication station and said: "Head, there is a communication request, and the signature is..."
"Graven Hill? Come in."
Arriving in front of the communication desk, Yang Yi saw the face wearing black sunglasses.
"Captain Yang, let me ask you one last time if you want this ship. The price remains unchanged." It was obvious that Hill was in a bad mood.
Yang Yi looked at the black rose outside the communication screen. The black rose kept nodding towards him and frantically motioned for him to buy it quickly.
"Well..." Yang Yi frowned and pondered for a long time, and finally sighed, "Oh... Mr. Hill, I hope you won't push us into a pit of fire in the future. I want this ship."
Hill was stunned instead: "...What? You want it?"
"Yes, I want it. What's wrong? Mr. Hill, are you regretting it now?"
"Of course not." Hill's expression suddenly changed, and that iconic smile appeared on his lips again, "In that case, I will keep this ship here. You can send someone up to take over at any time. I will
Let our mechanics leave you a status report. Happy cooperation, Captain Yang!"
"Well... it's a pleasure to work with you."
After the communication screen was closed, Yang Yi glared at Black Rose fiercely. Black Rose's face was overjoyed.
"Boss, it's great, battle patrol, battle patrol. I actually got the battle patrol half a year after establishing the pirate group, my God. I remember that my fastest record should be one and a half years... No, strictly speaking, it should be
It was the time of Sarah, that unlucky battle cruiser... But it seemed that it didn't meet the standards of a battle cruiser later... Well, the time of Granaz? That's not right either..."
Listening to Black Rose's excited thoughts, Yang Yi's veins couldn't stop popping up on his forehead, but he still held back his emotions: "Black Rose, let's go, it's time to inspect the ship." Then, he muttered a few more times in a low voice.
sentence.
