Star Fleet: Age of Lords.

Chapter 27 More money is needed

The bus stopped in front of a military fortress. When Feng Mo and others got off the bus, they saw a colonel standing at the door.

Although this man was wearing a military uniform, his face was gentle and he was smiling, exuding an elegant temperament.

"You are Viscount Feng Mo, right? And Wang Chongsheng, Mo Xue, and Yue Xiaomeng, right? Let me introduce myself. I am Jiang Guanchao, your senior, and a graduate of the first class of the Conducting Department in the 213th grade."

Class of 213? Is this a major?
Feng Mo is from the 232nd class. He has become a colonel in just 19 years. This is not as fast as riding a rocket to get promoted.

Feng Mo, who already attached great importance to Jiang Guanchao, attached even more importance to this person in his heart.

"Hello, senior. If I had known this was your territory, I should have come to visit you a long time ago."

Feng Mo and others said politely that when you go out, you rely on friends. Seeing an old senior undoubtedly made everyone feel relaxed. After all, with the relationship in the college, they were undoubtedly much closer than ordinary people.

"Come on, juniors, I will take you to eat first, so you can taste the food of our staff department."

After saying that, he took Feng Mo and others to a private room, where various exquisite dishes were placed on the table.

After everyone was seated, Xiao Meng and Mo Xue picked up their chopsticks and started eating without hesitation. Because they had to carry out the escort mission during this period, everyone's taste buds had lost its flavor.

Jiang Guanchao didn't care about it at all and was not in a hurry to talk about things. Instead, he urged Feng Mo and Lao Wang to have dinner together, and he also ate with everyone.

After the five dishes were served, Jiang Guanchao took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe his mouth and said to Feng Mo:

"Junior, I won't be polite to you. I'm sure you can guess the reason why I came to see you with your intelligence. This time, the military was careless and frightened you."

"So it's normal for the military to give compensation. You can tell me what you want. I'll tell you the bottom line of the military first, and then I'll think about it."

Jiang Guanchao did not hesitate at all, nor did he want to bargain with his junior classmates. His sincerity was evident in his words. Feng Mo nodded to show that he understood.

"First: All losses of the fleet will be borne by the military, and the reward for completing the mission will be doubled. Second: Give the fleet some travel expenses, which is negotiable. Finally: Give each of the juniors a dark energy crystal."

"Of course, this final reward does not include Captain Cui. Please forgive me. I will go to the bathroom first. The juniors can discuss it."

Note: 1 Star Coin = 100 Yunshan Coins

Although Jiang Guanchao spoke very carefully, he did not take Cui Zhihao seriously at all. But he did not mind. If he had not followed Feng Mo, he would never have had the chance to meet a person like Jiang Guanchao.

Cui Zhihao survived in the starry sea by relying on self-knowledge, and he didn't know what the dark energy crystals were used for.

However, Feng Mo knew the function of this treasure. As mentioned before (Chapter 5), dark matter and dark energy are related to the T5 starship, and dark energy crystals are the raw materials for building the T starship engine.

Moreover, this dark energy crystal can be embedded in the engine of starships below T5 level, which can increase the starship's star speed by at least 10 knots, and ensure that the engine will not burn out when the starship engine restrictions are lifted.

The reward was quite generous. Ordinary nobles had never heard of such treasures. Only people within the military knew about them. Feng Mo also learned about the effectiveness of this treasure by chance.

After Jiang Guanchao finished speaking, he turned and left the box.

"Mo, I've made a fortune this time. The mission reward has doubled to 10,000 points, 10,000 military merits, 600,000 star coins, and a travel fee. This is a deal. When the money comes in, I'm going to show off a lot. I don't have to beg for money in a humble manner anymore."

"Wang Chongsheng, that's enough. You have never seen money."

After Jiang Guanchao left, Lao Wang said excitedly, but these words were disliked by Mo Xue. Hearing Mo Xue's scolding, Lao Wang retorted aggrievedly: "You think it's all your fault, you are so poor that you only have money left. Did you see how stingy my dad was when you went to my house last time? He was really stingy!"

Looking at Lao Wang's aggrieved look, Mo Xue seemed to think of some scene and nodded to show her agreement.

Feng Mo laughed when he saw this. It seemed that there was a story behind the two people's return home last time. After a few jokes, the conversation ended.

"Senior has finally let the cat out of the bag this time. Just one dark energy crystal is enough to compensate for this mission. This thing cannot be measured by money. It is considered a military-controlled material and is not allowed to circulate on the market." Feng Mo said seriously.

"This is the meaning of compensation. If it was an ordinary person who got into trouble this time, the military might just give some symbolic money and that would be it. But among the four of us, who is an ordinary person? How can the military not spend some money? Of course, this also means investment. Anyway, when Jiang Guanchao comes back, we can just ask him for more travel expenses. The military is not short of money."

Feng Mo nodded after hearing this. Lao Wang saw things clearly. Among the four of them, Yue Xiaomeng never cared about these things. She only liked big ships and big cannons.

Even though Mo Xue was talking and laughing in front of them, the arrogance in her bones could not be erased, as could be seen from the fact that she never spoke to Cui Zhihao.

As for Lao Wang, he is the most clear-headed person and the most clear-headed person. You see him laughing and joking all the time, but when the critical moment comes, you can trust him with your back.

As for Feng Mo, needless to say, he is the protagonist and must be reliable.

After a while, there was a knock on the door and Jiang Guanchao walked in carrying a safe.

"Senior, we have discussed it. There is no problem with the first and third items. We would like to thank you for your training. However, the second item needs further discussion."

Everyone present was a smart person. After Feng Mo said this, Jiang Guanchao understood what he meant and made a tentative offer.

"Junior, do you think 30 star coins is okay?"

After hearing this, Feng Mo smiled, shook his head and said nothing.

"How about 500,000 star coins? That's enough, junior."

Feng Mo still shook his head, made a number with his right hand, and then clenched his left fist and shook it three times.

"Young Master Duoduo? Ten million star coins, my God!" Jiang Guanchao instantly lost his composure. This was no longer just a tiger opening its mouth wide, it was biting its aorta.

"That's impossible, junior. After doubling the previous mission rewards, it's already 260 million Yunshan coins. If you want another 10 million star coins, 1 billion Yunshan coins, the military will lose a lot this time."

"And I don't have the authority to do that. Let me tell you the truth. The military department gave me the authority to do that, and the price is one million star coins, okay?"

"Deal!" Feng Mo said happily.

Jiang Guanchao's heart skipped a beat because the offer was too high, but he returned to normal in just a moment. It was the military's money, not his Jiang family's, so it was not his turn to feel sorry for it.

"Well, I believe that you guys are trustworthy. Don't spread this matter. The mission rewards and compensation will be transferred to your account in ten minutes. The dark energy crystal is here. I have to go back to report, so I won't accompany you."

"Please help yourself, Senior. I'll need this box for a while."

"It's okay. I've already said hello. You can take as much time as you want, junior."

After Jiang Guanchao finished speaking, he turned and left. Ten minutes later, Feng Mo checked his account and found that the task rewards and compensation had been received.
