Chapter 023: Development Plan for Xuanhuang Star
Time often has a great magical power.
For example, a life-bearing planet would cost at least one trillion gold coins.
However, if a planetary lord is willing to spend some resources to develop the planet properly, a habitable planet can provide him with tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, of gold lion coins every year.
Over the course of ten thousand years, a planetary lord will be able to accumulate enough wealth to purchase a new life-bearing planet.
Of course, ten thousand years is an extremely long time. Even a powerful being at the Hengxing level can only live for ten thousand years.
However, for those powerful beings with long lifespans, inhabited planets can provide them with a continuous source of wealth. The more inhabited planets there are, the faster they can accumulate resources!
Of course, the cultivation of a strong individual and the training of their subordinates also require a great deal of resources.
But in any case, life-bearing planets are extremely important to most powerful individuals.
For a martial artist of Lu Qingshan's rank to possess a life-bearing planet is an extremely lucky and enviable thing.
After selecting these cultivation resources, Lu Qingshan quickly began choosing other necessary resources and treasures.
Lu Qingshan spent most of the day wandering around the Treasure Pavilion before finally purchasing all the supplies he needed, led by Verus.
It mainly includes the following treasures:
The Tier 2 Force Armor is worth 1.5 billion Gold Lion Coins.
C2-grade alloy combat suit, worth 500 million gold lion coins;
A second-tier Force weapon called "Zhenyue" is worth 500 million gold lion coins;
Twenty kilograms of silver chalcedony, worth 1.6 billion gold lion coins;
One thousand Muya crystals are worth one hundred million gold lion coins;
One hundred tons of millennium-old spiritual essence, worth one hundred million gold lion coins;
One hundred thousand tons of Purple Light Dew, worth one billion Golden Lion coins;
Three sets of easy-to-operate mining equipment, including many basic buildings, mining trucks, mining machines, etc., are worth three billion gold lion coins;
Ten Class B medium-sized space warships and fifty Class A large interstellar transport ships, worth one billion gold lion coins.
A relatively advanced intelligent optical brain, along with one hundred auxiliary optical brains, is priced at 8 million Golden Lion Coins.
A C2-class spaceship, about 100 meters in diameter and shaped like a flying saucer, is worth 500 million gold lion coins.
Because Lu Qingshan purchased a large amount of resources this time, it quickly alarmed the person in charge of this Treasure Pavilion, an elderly man at the ninth level of the Eternal Star Realm.
The person in charge not only personally received Lu Qingshan and Verus, but also offered them numerous discounts.
Rare treasures like Silver Light Essence and Tier 2 Force Armor are offered at a 5% discount;
Resources such as spaceships and mining equipment are offered at a 10% discount;
As for common products like Purple Light Dew that ordinary people can afford, they are offered at a 20% discount.
"Dear guest!"
After Lu Qingshan finished making his request, the old man from the Treasure Pavilion quickly smiled and said, "The resources you purchased are worth a total of 106 billion Gold Lion Coins. After the discount, they are worth 97.2 billion Gold Lion Coins. You only need to pay 97 billion Gold Lion Coins!"
"Hmm!" Lu Qingshan nodded slightly and quickly transferred 97 billion Golden Lion Coins from his Golden Lion Empire Bank account to the Treasure Pavilion's account.
With the Treasure Pavilion able to open branches in hundreds of star systems around, Lu Qingshan naturally wasn't worried about not delivering the goods after receiving the money.
After confirming that he had received Lu Qingshan's transfer, the old man from the Treasure Pavilion immediately smiled and said, "Dear guest, please rest assured!"
"Our Treasure Pavilion has the most complete selection of goods. Most of the resources you ordered are stocked on Purple Water Star. However, items like Purple Light Dew, spaceships, and mining equipment need to be sourced from other inhabited planets!"
"However, as per your request, we will transport all these resources to the coordinates you provided, and they are expected to arrive gradually within ten days!"
"no problem!"
Lu Qingshan quickly nodded and said.
This time, he chose a different delivery location. For treasures such as the C2 spaceship, Silver Light Essence, and the second-tier Force Armor, the delivery address was, of course, his current location on Purple Water Star.
However, for large resources such as mining equipment, Purple Dew, and interstellar warships, he chose to receive them from Xuanhuang Star.
Although the cosmic coordinates of Xuanhuang Star are not yet available on the current cosmic star map, Lu Qingshan has provided the Treasure Pavilion with detailed coordinates, so they certainly won't send it to the wrong place.
As for the issue of the Treasure Pavilion discovering the interstellar coordinates of Xuanhuang Star, there is no need to worry at all, because at that time Xuanhuang Star had already become a life-bearing planet under Lu Qingshan's name, and given the size of the Treasure Pavilion, it would be impossible for them to be interested in an ordinary life-bearing planet with a lord.
At this moment, the elderly man from the Treasure Pavilion quickly handed an extremely exquisite card to Lu Qingshan, then continued with a smile, "Respected guest, this is our Treasure Pavilion's membership card, which we rarely issue!"
"Our Treasure Pavilion has branches on many inhabited planets. With this membership card, you can enjoy a 9.5% discount at any Treasure Pavilion branch!"
After hearing the old man's words, Verus couldn't help but show a look of envy on his face.
In fact, he also had a membership card for the Treasure Pavilion, but as a ninth-level expert of the Eternal Star, his past spending in the Treasure Pavilion had exceeded that of Lu Qingshan. However, the membership card he was given only offered a 9.8% discount.
However, Lu Qingshan was able to directly obtain a membership card with a 9.5% discount this time. The most important reason for this was probably that Treasure Pavilion had guessed that Lu Qingshan owned a life-bearing planet.
It's important to understand that a planet with life is completely different from an ordinary planet!
Like Verus, who is already considered quite good among the stars, he has not only been wandering in the universe for thousands of years, but has also formed a team of adventurers whose members are all at the ninth level of the star level.
Even if Verus spent ten years adventuring in the universe, he might not be able to acquire a fortune worth one hundred million gold lions!
But what about the ruler of a planet inhabited by life?
With just a little development of the life-bearing planets under their name, and without needing to manage them personally, they can earn at least tens of millions of gold lion coins every year.
As time goes by, the gap between the two will often widen!
After purchasing the treasures at Zhenbao, Lu Qingshan went to the nearby slave market with Verus.
The slaves in this slave market mainly come from two sources: one is ordinary slaves trained by slave traders on their own inhabited planets, and the other is slaves captured by the losing side in wars between major powers, who are likely to be implanted with chips and become slaves.
Lu Qingshan followed Verus around the slave market and then spent 100 million gold lion coins to buy a batch of slaves.
However, the slaves Lu Qingshan purchased this time were mainly scientific personnel, most of whom were at the planetary level.
After all, Lu Qingshan's next steps include developing Earth's technology, sending people to other planets near Xuanhuang Star to mine metals, and raising monsters in the sea.
But to achieve all this, what is most needed is the guidance of some scientific and technological personnel.
He had originally planned to buy some star-level slaves to protect the safety of Xuanhuang Star, but Verus stopped him.
And so, Lu Qingshan spent another half a day with Verus wandering around Purple Water City before returning together to his teacher Cano's manor.
