"Sir, the cost of deploying the Skynet system is not high. In order to return the technology points as soon as possible, you can lower the price..."
"I know, let's find an opportunity to sell Xiaotian too..."
Zhao Yu nodded. He was short of a thousand technology points and could upgrade the Hall thruster. It was just a Skynet system. Even if it was given to Blue Star for free.
"I'm here, we'll talk about the rest later..."
"Okay!"
Zhao Yu controlled the spacecraft and slowly landed towards the Blue Star.
Arriving at the Xiadu base, Zhao Yu was invited to sit in the reception room.
After a while, Colonel Chu walked out of the base.
"Mr. Zhao, you are here!"
"Hmm!"
Before Zhao Yu could say anything more, Colonel Chu said with joy on his face: "Mr. Zhao, I have some good news for you!"
"Good news?!"
Zhao Yu was startled for a moment and asked curiously: "What news?"
"The number of robots sold by our Blue Moon Factory has exceeded 200 million units, which is equivalent to 60 billion resources equivalent to Blue Moon coins..."
"Sixty billion?!"
Zhao Yu was shocked. The resources needed for the first line of defense were only 10.9 billion Blue Moon Coins. So many robots were sold?
"Yes, in addition to robots, we have also received many orders for maglev buses and optical tweezer ladders..."
Colonel Chu said with hesitation on his face and said: "However, there is a problem now that is difficult to solve..."
"What's the problem?!" Sixty billion, even if Xiaotian has been upgraded once and uses full power to collect resources, it will still take more than a hundred days to get it.
"Our Blue Star reserves are running out of resources, and most of them haven't been dug out yet..."
"Moreover, at first we were just selling orders, but we didn't think about the lack of resources and the complaints among the people that they couldn't get robots..."
"We also really want the Skynet system you mentioned, but now, I'm afraid we won't be able to trade it for the time being..."
"There are too many orders for robots and they have not been shipped, which may have an impact on subsequent sales..."
Colonel Chu kept talking. According to the think tank's thinking, there are three things to keep in mind: there are no resources now, and priority must be given to supplying robots, etc.
In his opinion, since the aliens have implemented the middle strategy, the deployment of Skynet will probably be delayed.
Unexpectedly, after Zhao Yu pondered for a moment, he said: "The resource issue is easy to solve. Before, during the first transaction, we agreed to pay on delivery..."
"The two sides didn't understand each other at that time. Now, since the cooperation is so close, let's be more relaxed..."
"In this way, I can give you a balance of 10 billion in arrears, and the resources will be paid back slowly, no rush..."
"Ah?"
Colonel Chu was stunned for a moment, the aliens actually wanted to pay them what they owed.
"But, 10 billion, Mr. Zhao, we're afraid we won't be able to pay it in a short time..."
"You don't know, after so many years of mining and mining, we at Blue Star have only reserved about 3 billion resources equivalent to Blue Moon coins..."
"Ten billion, I'm afraid..."
"It's okay, I believe you won't default on your debt..." Zhao Yu said with a smile.
Xiaotian's current daily mining output is about 300 million Blue Moon Coin equivalent resources. If Blue Star also starts mining at full strength, the resources he can get every day will be very abundant.
Colonel Chu was thinking about whether to accept the tens of billions of arrears, but what Zhao Yu said next surprised him.
"In addition, your mining efficiency seems to be low. I plan to sell you a machine dedicated to mining..."
Saying that, Zhao Yu waved his hand, and a first-generation Xiaotian came in.
"This is?"
Colonel Chu looked at the familiar machine in front of him and quickly realized that this was the resource-gathering machine that had appeared on the moon.
"Are you willing to sell this to us?!"
"Of course, when doing business, you must always help your partners..."
Zhao Yu smiled and said: "Improving your mining efficiency will also be beneficial to our transactions!"
As he spoke, he added: "In addition, we have brought the Skynet system over, and it just so happens that it will be installed at once..."
"Mr. Zhao, we may not be able to afford it now..."
"It's okay. You have so many orders for robots, which is enough for me to earn. For this Tianwang system, please give me some resources and treat them as gifts from us!"
But we don’t want it!
Colonel Chu was screaming in his heart, but at this moment, he could not find a reason to refuse.
After all, the reason why I didn’t want to accept Skynet’s method at the beginning was to start with resources.
Now, Zhao Yu first delivers the goods to them and then pays them, and then sends them machines to increase the efficiency of mining resources.
"Mr. Zhao..."
"I know you are short of resources now, let's do this. Skynet will count you as resources equivalent to 100 Blue Moon Coins, and Xiaotian's first unit will also count as resources equivalent to 100 Blue Moon Coins. You can use the remaining Xiaotians as many as you want.
Use the amount of money to buy..."
Colonel Chu had no choice but to agree.
While others are strong, they are weak, and they don’t even dare to express their rejection openly.
"Then let's trade now, Congressman Chu. Thank you very much for taking the trouble this time to get a robot order worth 60 billion Blue Moon coins equivalent resources..."
Transaction completed.
Zhao Yu also received 1,000 technology points. He didn't stay long and hurriedly left the living room.
Just as we were about to board the ship, someone suddenly walked out and shouted.
Looking back, it was a middle-aged man who had appeared next to Zhang Yixia when she was in contact with Liu Ning. He seemed to be from the aerospace department.
"Something happened?!"
"Sorry to bother you, Mr. Zhao Yu..."
Chief Engineer Yang showed an uneasy look. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "I have a good friend named Zhang Tao. He is obsessed with something and fell in love with someone he shouldn't love. Some time ago, he abandoned Blue Star and went to the moon. I don't know who he is.
But it’s okay?”
"Zhang Tao..."
Zhao Yu looked at Chief Engineer Yang and said casually: "It's very good. Now I am an L1 employee at the base. I work with the people I like every day. I don't want to miss home..."
"It's good that he is still alive, thank you very much..." Chief Engineer Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
This inquiry seems to be his personal behavior, but in fact it is a task arranged by the base. He wants to take the opportunity to find out Zhang Tao's whereabouts.
Zhao Yu nodded and saw that he had nothing else to say, so he went straight onto the spacecraft.
……
Colonel Chu weakly returned to the underground base and informed him of the situation.
Suddenly, everyone in the room became silent.
After a long time, Councilor Zhou said: "Well, Skynet is just Skynet. It can only monitor private networks. We all use wired LAN internally..."
"Actually, we don't have to worry so much!" Chen Xiao's words attracted everyone's attention.
"If they want to deploy the Skynet system, let them deploy it. The terminal is still in our hands!"
Chen Xiao smiled, pointed to the special mobile phone on the table, and said: "Chip!"
Colonel Chu's eyes lit up, "Yes, in order to connect to the Skynet system, you need to install the chip they sent in your mobile phone. As long as our research progress is slower..."
