496: Chapter 438: Heavy-hearted_4 496: Chapter 438: Heavy-hearted_4 Wu Yue said with a smile,

“Thanks a lot, I’ll leave it to you then, I’m leaving now.”

Xiao Wen expressed his heartfelt gratitude.

“Okay.”

Wu Yue nodded in reply.

After that, Xiao Wen turned to leave the hanger, preparing to head towards the distant elevator.

At this point, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He saw Wang Hai leading Qian Chengxue and others, who had just finished their business at another military supply point, entering the elevator.

Xiao Wen was surprised to see Wang Hai and Qian Chengxue together, as he hadn’t expected to encounter them here, so he quickly followed them.

But after only a few steps, they had already entered the elevator and left.

Xiao Wen stopped walking and fell into deep thought.

He was too excited to think clearly when he saw Wang Hai and Qian Chengxue just now, but now that he had calmed down, it seemed more and more odd.

Why would those two be together?

At first, Xiao Wen thought it would be Wang Hai who would send someone to rescue them, simply because he happened to be assigned a rescue mission.

But after they returned, he realized something was off—the other party had gone to great lengths to arrange their rescue.

He found it strange even then, and now, seeing Qian Chengxue with Wang Hai,

everything made sense to him; it must have been Qian Chengxue who asked Wang Hai to save them.

This suggested that their relationship was no ordinary one.

This realization gave Xiao Wen an uneasy premonition, and his expression grew increasingly complicated.

…

Inside Hangar K52,

Chen Shan and Su Mo were chatting and laughing leisurely.

“Let me tell you, I heard that this time we’re going to get a good number of weapons and equipment, there might even be advanced mechas.”

“Really?

Are there any Third Generation mechas?”

Su Mo asked with a hint of hope.

Chen Shan replied with a deadpan face, “Brother, are you kidding?

Forget Third Generation mechas.

If they give us even one Second Generation mecha and a few more First Generation standard mechas, I’d be thankful to Heaven and Earth.”

Lin Yue joined in the banter, “Isn’t that a bit of an exaggeration, haha.”

“Can you, Lin Yue, not mess around?”

Chen Shan said helplessly.

“By the way, why hasn’t Xiao Wen come back yet?”

“He should be back soon, these past few days he’s been handling equipment allocation claims, I’ve heard there’s a huge crowd doing it recently.”

“Huh, weren’t a lot of people supposed to be discharged lately?”

“Can’t discharge, the higher-ups won’t approve it, everyone has to find a way to get more weapons for self-defense.”

“Makes sense.”

…..

At this moment, Xiao Wen was walking over from afar, and from a distance, he could see Su Mo chatting happily with Chen Shan and the others.

His mood was incredibly complicated; actually, receiving news about Qian Chengxue was a good thing, and he knew Su Mo had been subtly trying to find out about her.

But Xiao Wen was also well aware that once he told Su Mo about Qian Chengxue’s whereabouts, it would probably be time for him to leave.

To be honest, Xiao Wen, looking back on the times they fought side by side, was very reluctant to part ways.

However, that was not the most important issue; the most crucial point was that Qian Chengxue was now seen close with Wang Hai.

Although Su Mo was excellent, he was still far from Wang Hai’s league, and telling him this would be a severe blow.

After much thought, Xiao Wen made the tough decision that he had to tell Su Mo.

So, taking a deep breath, Xiao Wen walked towards Su Mo and the others.

When Chen Shan saw Xiao Wen coming in, he excitedly said, “Old Xiao is back, how did it go, did our equipment allocation request come through?”

“The request came through,”

Xiao Wen responded.

“Really?

Did they reassign us a ship, and how many mechas were allocated…?”

Lin Yue asked excitedly without stopping.

Usually, Xiao Wen would have patiently explained the details of the allocation to Lin Yue and the others.

But now, with his mind on Su Mo’s matter and somewhat distracted, he hesitated greatly before calling out, “Su Mo.”

“Hmm?”

At the moment, Su Mo was pondering over Third Generation mechas, an issue without weapons being a bit difficult.

“That…

”

Xiao Wen was about to disclose Qian Chengxue’s situation to Su Mo,

when Su Mo’s cellphone rang.

He picked up the phone, glanced at the caller ID, and answered the call, meanwhile saying to Xiao Wen and the others,

“You guys go ahead.”

With that, Su Mo walked out,

“Hello, this is Su Mo.”

“Mr.

Su Mo, the comprehensive materials about mineral ores you asked for before have been found.

When would you be free to come over?”

“I’ll come over now.”

Su Mo replied.

“I’ve got something to do, I’ll leave for a while.”

Su Mo turned around and shouted to Xiao Wen and the others.

“Umm…

Ah~”

Just as Xiao Wen was about to call Su Mo back, Su Mo was already far away.

It wasn’t long before Su Mo arrived at the store.

“Hello, Mr.

Su Mo.”

Pades Cardot greeted him warmly.

“Where’s the thing you found?”

Su Mo asked.

Pades Cardot took out a box from the counter, opened it and took out a memory card.

“It’s in here, it contains a list of all the recycled mineral resources in Star Ring City and their detailed introductions.

It also includes a comprehensive guide to the functions of mineral resources.

You could say it’s as complete as can be.”

“How much?”

Su Mo’s eyes lit up as he inquired.

“Not expensive, 100 Star Coins!”

Pades Cardot replied with a smile.

“Too expensive, one million Federation Coins would be more like it.”

Su Mo responded.

The smile on Pades Cardot’s face suddenly stiffened, and he said with a smile, “Mr.

Su Mo, you’re joking, right?

Although one million Federation Coins is the equivalent value of 100 Star Coins, we only accept Star Coins here.”

“I can add more.”

Su Mo continued.

“I’m sorry, I can’t sell it.”

Pades Cardot shook his head, indicating that the two were not of equal value.

“Ten Star Coins!”

Seeing this, Su Mo cut to the chase, which was akin to slashing straight at the carotid artery.

If it were a clerk with a bad temper, they would definitely feel that this was just making trouble.

“Mr.

Su Mo, you’re really being insincere, that’s not how you negotiate a price.”

Pades Cardot replied awkwardly.

“I think the price I offered is high enough.

Firstly, such information could be valuable, but it could also be worthless since it can be copied.

How much could your memory card be worth, 10 Federation Coins?

Take a good look at the memory card used for this information—it’s produced by our own Federation.

This shows that the information is not firsthand, and who knows how many times it’s been copied.

If you’re unwilling to sell, I’ll just leave and put in more effort to find it elsewhere.”

Su Mo analyzed calmly.

A wry smile appeared on Pades Cardot’s face as he said to Su Mo, “It’s rare to see someone with such a clear head like Mr.

Su Mo.

Alright, I’ll sell it for ten Star Coins.”

“Good.”

Su Mo took out his card to make the transaction.

Then, taking the memory card, Su Mo left, while Pades Cardot watched him go with a brilliant smile on his face.

He had made a big profit this time.

He had copied that information for just one Star Coin.

Now, not only had he sold it for ten Star Coins, but he also made a backup of the information to sell again.

They say that Black Brilliance is a gold-digging heaven, and it’s certainly true.

He didn’t regret giving up all the assets of the Cardot Family to start a business here.

…

Not long after, Su Mo returned to his home.

He inserted the memory card into the computer and copied the data.

The information was incredibly comprehensive; from the directory, it recorded over a million types of valuable ores.

Of course, not every ore had a detailed introduction.

Many of the records were just names and pictures, along with the recycling prices in Star Ring City.

Su Mo took out the metal ore from under the bed, snapped a photo with his phone, uploaded it to the computer, and then began to match the image with the information.

In just a few seconds, a match was successful.

Data popped up.

Eternal Metal.

Production area: Unknown!

Mining conditions: Unknown!

Rarity: Extremely rare!

Value: Extremely high!

Function: It is a material used in Star Destroyers, 5th Generation Mechas, 6th Generation Mechas, and advanced mechanical devices.

Star Ring City’s recycling price: 10 million Star Coins per KG.

Seeing the recycling price, Su Mo also took a deep breath—was it really that valuable?

If he went back and dug up a hundred tons, wouldn’t that be insane?

Regrettably, what Su Mo didn’t know was that this material simply didn’t have that large of an output, and the recycling price was actually very low.

The discrepancy between the prices for recycling and selling in Star Ring City was at least tenfold.
