Chapter 1099 A Shameless Business War
Tang Mingyue, the current farmer, future winery owner and space station agricultural and animal husbandry oligarch, is very sure: no one has cannons now.
——Never mind throwing rocks or shooting lasers, it doesn’t matter.
This is common sense.
Anyone who has looked at ship prices knows that it would be a waste of time just to pay off the loan on the mining ship, let alone buy a more expensive ship.
Although [Armed Cargo Ship] is only one level higher than [Mining Barge], its price has increased more than five times because of its space combat capabilities!
No one can afford it now.
And there is something very paradoxical: [Armed cargo ship] is essentially a cargo ship.
But in the current situation, where do players go to purchase goods, and where do they transport them to sell?
There is no interstellar business environment at all? !
So the only value of buying an [armed cargo ship] seems to be the "arms" - it can be used to rob others.
It's just that they haven't realized it yet: no one is buying armed cargo ships now, not just because they can't afford them.
There is another important reason - the shipyard of the space station is not fully operational at all!
Only Tang Mingyue vaguely realized:
The business of the space station requires players to build it themselves.
When he was walking around the commercial street, it was not functioning at all. Only robots and management systems were performing the lowest level of maintenance.
When he entered the agricultural and pastoral area, he found that it was similar - although it was functioning, it was only planting a few crops such as corn, barley, and potatoes.
The distillery also only brews the most common spirits.
It's like everything is limited to the most basic level.
It's not so much for production as it is to prevent equipment and robots from rusting and destroying.
However, once players plan to join, it is easy to enter various positions, and even after a little practice and assessment, they can get permission to try to produce more advanced products.
There are more abundant grains, vegetables and fruits that consume more water than grains, and more free wine brewing. Restrictions on breeding cattle, horses, pigs, and sheep have been relaxed, and they have begun to enjoy a better life...
So Tang Mingyue had a guess: the shipyard in the space station was not fully operational.
The highest that everyone can buy is a mining ship.
As for the more advanced ones in the product list, whether they are armed cargo ships, shuttle ships, cruisers, destroyers, or even aircraft carriers, players need to collect resources and arrange production by themselves.
It may even require players to drive the screws themselves.
Based on this speculation, things like interstellar war will have to wait a month or two at least, right?
What the hell is going on right now?
What's the picture?
Tang Mingyue hurriedly opened the panel and jumped to the forum to see what was going on.
As expected, as soon as he opened the forum, he saw the pinned post——
[Everyone with a spaceship, get online immediately! At all costs, Gan Ta Ma's lunacy! ]
"?"
Before Tang Mingyue clicked on the post, he had a hunch that the truth might be very outrageous.
But the business is indeed like this:
"Someone on the horse is crazy and is attacking the space station!
Be sick!
The group of people who set fire to Pandora were labeled as [Eternal Enemies] just last week, and they are still hard at work planting trees. Are you forgetting now?
Are you going to build a space station again?
Crazy? !
Anyone with a spaceship, hurry up and get online! Don't let the space station be blown up by these lunatics!
——I mean the mining ship produced by the space station! Don't bother with the space station in the main storyline, it's impossible to catch up, it's just a target.
Speed speed! "
——Post time was just 30 minutes ago.
"Fuck...fuck!" Tang Mingyue opened his mouth in surprise.
"This can't be a group of people, right? Aren't you afraid of being turned into a gangster by the space station?"
"What is this? Investing your limited life in unlimited fun?"
He quickly scrolled down to browse more information and found that this battle had indeed been going on for a while, and the impact was much larger than he expected!
The group of people who caused the sabotage were obviously organized, and they even had a time difference——
They first launched a terrorist attack on the space station in space, attracting everyone's attention.
After a large number of players who wanted to protect the space station took off in spaceships to meet the enemy, another group of people suddenly launched a riot inside the space station!
Unprepared players were caught off guard, and various facilities on the space station were severely damaged.
However, this group of people did not attack passers-by directly - if passers-by just watched, they would ignore them, but if passers-by wanted to stop them, they would also attack passers-by!
This resulted in some players not understanding what was going on in the early days. When they saw a large group of people playing with zero-yuan purchases, their bodies followed them before their brains could react...
So it is very outrageous that after the riots started, the looting and zero-dollar shopping trend spread rapidly.
By the time rational players think about the [identity card] issue and discover that the identity cards of those players who participated in vandalism, smashing, and looting have been marked red, it is already a bit late to stop this zero-yuan purchase.
The situation in Daxia is not bad. Except for the chaotic and evil Lezi people who caused the turmoil at the beginning, the remaining people can still be awakened to their senses.
After all, Splash just launched a "salvation war" involving tens of millions of people last week. After someone on the forum called for a stop and made clear the potential risks, more than 90% of the people chose to stop.
Because everyone knows——
Today is already Friday evening, Lady Luck has already finished school, and she may go online at any time.
And the [Flag of Salvation] discussion group has never been disbanded!
Therefore, it is wise to stop as early as possible.
But players from other countries are another story.
Especially the players in America, I don't know if this atmosphere of smashing things and grabbing everything they see has awakened some kind of fanatical instinct in them, and now they can't stop at all...
"..."
"It's really lively." Tang Mingyue concluded.
At another time, he would still be interested in running over and joining in the fun.
But now, after running outside all day, he really didn't have the energy to fight.
He was quite interested in the spaceship battle, but all his money was spent on buying land and there was no spaceship to use.
So he decided:
Collect some food, then go offline and lie down to watch other people's live broadcasts of fights.
Harvesting vegetables in space naturally does not need to be as troublesome as in "Chang'an". It is a completely mechanical operation. If you have money, you can upgrade the equipment and leave it all to the robot.
In less than 10 minutes, he completed the process of collecting the dishes.
Out of inertia, he went to the winery again - although he didn't plan to risk delivery, he still had to buy the newly produced wine and transport it back to the farm for storage.
After the fight is over, you can still sell it for a good price.
Maybe it can even be sold at a better price.
Especially now that he has a competitor - another small farm not far from him has been taken over by other players.
From a glance, it is possible that the number of players in the farm is gradually increasing, and his business goal of monopolizing the space station is facing severe challenges.
It can be expected that in the near future, he will inevitably experience thrilling and deceptive business wars.
But it doesn't matter, he's ready!
Tang Mingyue was thinking about these things as he pulled a cart of wine out of the winery. Then he looked up and saw thick smoke burning in the direction of his farm.
"?"
"Fuck me!"
He instantly put the idea of "smooth driving" behind him, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and rushed back to the farm at full speed.
While rushing, he yelled curses.
When he arrived at the farm gate, he found that his farm was full of fire.
Large tracts of farmland were destroyed by fire.
The fire-fighting robot that was supposed to put out the fire didn't know why it failed to put out the fire in the first place.
The people who set the fire did not stop, but spread out on the spot and continued to set fire to the surrounding farmland.
"My farm..."
"I (future land)... I (future food)... I fuck you uncle!!"
The future oligarch suddenly suffered a heavy blow before he had time to build his own business empire!
Tang Mingyue felt as if he had been hit hard!
But even so, he still noticed something very discordant——
The surrounding farms were burning, but the one occupied by other players was still quiet and peaceful without a trace of fire.
The robot even turned on the sprinkler system to help cool down the crops.
Seeing this scene, even though there was no evidence, Tang Mingyue relied on his strong intuition and made an instant judgment——
This was not a riot or aimless arson.
This is a shameless business war! !
