Chapter 284: The wind gradually rose

Views:

Waiting outside the exchange, not only Yang Yi and Lin Feng, but also many people.

Although there are no regulations on who can enter and who cannot enter, the exchange is such a big place. If all the pirates who come to do business bring their entourage in, it will definitely be crowded. Except for a few pirates, most pirates let their entourage stay outside and wait.

Yang Yi and Lin Feng are still dressed up as male and female robbers. Although they look a bit bluff, they are still a little worse in momentum compared to Jackson. Therefore, it is not all right to be Jackson's entourage, at least those pirates waiting outside the exchange. Will not doubt their identities.

In addition, there are some casual staff wandering outside the exchange.

Mainly there are some children who have not grown up, and there are children of all races. Most of them are selling small commodities, such as snacks and accessories. The exchange is the most densely populated place nearby, and almost all pirates come here to do business, so there must be a good market for selling some small commodities here. As for the quality of those snacks and accessories, I'm afraid no one can guarantee it.

"Over there." Lin Feng touched Yang Yi with his elbow.

Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, followed Lin Feng's gaze and looked over. Not far away, a child was selling hair accessories to a female pirate, but it was a pity that the female pirate was from the Leng tribe. Her hair was on her scalp and she didn't need hair accessories at all. Of course, it was not the female pirate that caught Lin Feng's attention.

That child is a human being!

After coming here, Lin Feng and Yang Yi saw human beings for the first time.

You know, the homeland galaxy is in the North Fourth District, more than 10,000 light-years away from the central region. Besides, the human confederation is only a sixth-class civilization, and it is not to be seen in the Galactic Alliance. Although human footprints can be seen everywhere in the northern region, humans are not so common in other regions. Even the most audacious human pirates rarely come to the central area, let alone rob homes here.

At this time, the child also came to Yang Yi and Lin Feng, and walked towards them.

"This aunt is so beautiful, uncle, buy a hairpin and give it to the aunt." The child is a self-acquaintance, and starts selling before Yang Yi and Lin Feng can speak. "Uncle, this is the best-selling hairpin. It is carved from the vital wood on the Hidden Spirit Star. Only I can sell it here in the entire central area, and the price is cheap, as long as ten credits. Uncle, auntie. It’s beautiful, and it’s definitely more glamorous with this hairpin."

In the face of this clever child, Yang Yi was speechless.

Lin Feng is indeed very beautiful, but now she is dressed up as a pirate, let alone pretty, it's good if she isn't scary. As for the hairpins that the child said were carved with breath-bearing wood, it is even more impossible, because the breath-bearing tree is the sacred tree of the hidden spirit tribe, it is impossible to make hairpins, let alone sell only ten credits. Yang Yi saw it at a glance. The hairpin was actually made of ordinary wood, but it was coated with a layer of shiny paint. Not to mention ten credits, even if you give it away for free, no one will use it to comb your hair. As for the value of the ten credit points, Yang Yi is not very clear, but thinks it will not be too bad. After all, they are the credit points of the hidden spirit race.

Of course, Yang Yi doesn't even have a credit point now.

Fortunately, Jackson came out of the exchange at this time.

The child was also very clever. Seeing Yang Yi and Lin Feng walking towards Jackson, he immediately guessed that Yang Yi and Lin Feng were just Jackson's followers, not rich people, so they did not continue to sell them. As for Jackson, he looked a little scary, and the children did not dare to go up and provoke him.

"How about it?"

"This is not a place to talk."

Yang Yi nodded slightly without asking more.

Not long after, the three of them entered a restaurant. Strictly speaking, it is not a restaurant, because what is provided here is only the protein, fat, sugar, vitamins and trace elements needed for carbon-based life, and they are mixed together in a paste form and sold in bottles.

Obviously, no one would treat this kind of thing as a delicacy.

After ordering three bottles of "paste", Jackson sent the waiter away.

"The situation is not ideal. First of all, the prices here are frighteningly high."

"what?"

Jackson grinned reluctantly, and said, "I sold half of my inventory before I got 10,000 credits. According to what I heard, even if someone sells it, it takes 100,000 credits to buy a small spaceship. The previous price. When someone sells the spaceship again, I'm afraid it won't be this price."

"Expensive?"

Jackson was taken aback for a moment, shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "The credit of the Hidden Spirit Race is hard currency in the entire Galactic Alliance. If it is elsewhere, 100,000 credits can be used to buy a luxury cruise ship. In addition, Here, what we consider to be precious is not valuable."

"What's the meaning?"

Jackson sighed and explained what he had experienced in the exchange.

Although Jackson is not rich, at least compared to Yang Yi, he can only be regarded as a pauper, but after more than a hundred years of interstellar mercenaries, Jackson has a lot of inventory, including many high-end goods. In order to avoid getting into trouble, Jackson was not stingy and took out half of the inventory. Although it had been expected that the prices here would not be too low, in Jackson's view, it would not be a big problem to change the inventory of his hard work for a half of his life to a small spacecraft. You know, those things Jackson brought out are enough to exchange for a large spaceship anywhere else. Only when the exchange staff told him that these items were not worth at all, Jackson realized that his mental preparation was still not in place. According to the staff, almost all the pirates who come here can come up with a few valuable goods, and for the pirates wandering around, what is needed most is a spaceship, so the previous one is a spaceship.

More importantly, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy a spaceship.

"The premise is that someone sells the spaceship." Jackson shook his head with a wry smile. "Such a thing is impossible to find. No pirate is willing to sell his own spaceship."

"That said, we have to find another way."

"I think it's better to wait and see."

"What's the meaning?"

Jackson hesitated for a while, then said: "In the exchange, there are a few pirates talking about us, as if the news has spread."

"What?" Yang Yi immediately frowned.

"I didn't hear clearly, but I'm sure that the wind is a bit tight now. I heard one of the pirates said that the Alliance Council had notified the Hidden Spirit Race and asked the Hidden Spirit Race to send a spacecraft to find us." Jackson glanced around and lowered his voice. He said, "It is obviously not a good thing that the news spread so quickly. Even if Alora knows the hidden spirit race, using this method to put pressure on the hidden spirit race is only counterproductive. As long as the hidden spirit If the clan initiates a search operation, it will be affected or even attacked. Obviously, no pirate will sell the spaceship at this time. Besides, if we are impatient to buy the spaceship, it will only arouse suspicion."

Yang Yi nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Jackson meant.

"In that case, we cannot stay here."

"Where else can I go?" Jackson glanced at Lin Feng and said, "It's not safe here. Even if there is a temporary base for pirates nearby, it's not necessarily safe."

"That's right." Yang Yichang exhaled, "If you know that the hidden spirit race is Alora, the hidden spirit race will take this opportunity to initiate a search operation. Obviously, even if you go to other places, you may not be safe. If you can't Get a spaceship in time and we will be discovered soon."

"Then what should I do?"

"Now that the wind is tight, we'll talk later."

"Waiting for what?"

Jackson was a bit speechless, but he had to give Lin Feng face, saying: "If the Hidden Spirits go to war, this place will definitely not be kept. As far as the rumors I heard in the exchange, the pirates who came here did not intend to stay, most of them are supplementing. I'll leave when I'm provided."

Lin Feng frowned and looked at Jackson without understanding.

"Although there is no chaos yet, as long as there is news, there will be a chaos here."

"You mean, we took advantage of the fire?"

Jackson nodded and said, "This is just a way. If we are lucky, we might be able to buy a spaceship as we wish."

"What's the meaning?"

"Don't ask." Yang Yi sighed and said, "Brother certainly won't talk nonsense, and we don't have much experience, so I must be right to listen to him."

Lin Feng was a bit speechless, but Yang Yi was right.

"Of course, just waiting is not necessarily the best way."

"Brother, what do you mean..."

"The news has spread. If there is a fire at this time, maybe..."

"Light a fire?"

Jackson nodded and said, "Obviously, the people here are very afraid of the Hidden Spirit Race, and they know that they can’t fight against the Hidden Spirit Race. The Human Federation will launch a large-scale search operation. Then the pirates here will think that the Hidden Spirit Race will take this opportunity to fight against pirates and even eradicate pirates. If the pirates can be convinced, to give a reasonable statement The Spirit Race will shift the responsibility for the disappearance of the Human Federation Envoy to the pirates, saying that if the pirates attacked the spacecraft on which the Human Federation Envoy was riding, they will go to war, and the pirates in the vicinity will inevitably escape."

"At that time, there will be a mess of porridge."

Jackson smiled faintly and said: "Obviously, the more chaotic the situation, the better for us, and the greater the chance of seizing a spacecraft."

Yang Yi nodded slightly and glanced at Lin Feng.

"You decide, don't ask me." Obviously, Lin Feng was still angry at what Yang Yi started to say.

"Okay, let's wait. Brother, do you have a way to spread the news?"

"I went to think of a way, but I can't guarantee it." Jackson sighed and said, "If the guys I know are still alive and live here, I can spread the news through them. It's just that they are already alive. It's been over a hundred years, and they may not be here."

"Do your best."
