Swallowed Star: Top Comprehension

Chapter 80: Buying Slaves, Purchasing on a Large Scale

That night, Chen Yue and his companions randomly selected a few rooms in the castle's accommodation area and settled down.

The next morning, Chen Yue remembered the lady he met at the real estate transaction center, who handed him a small card before leaving.

"Found it." After rummaging in his pocket for a long time, he finally found the wrinkled card.

It read: "Arya".

Not a bad name, followed by his virtual universe number.

Chen Yue decided to contact her through the virtual universe network.

He thought to himself, "Virtual universe, I want to see how magical it is."

Until now, the busy pace has not allowed him the opportunity to experience it in depth, but now, he is full of anticipation.

He walked into his room, closed the door quietly, and then sank into the comfort of the sofa.

Chen Yue issued a command to the auxiliary optical computer: "Connect to the virtual universe."

"Connecting to the virtual universe..."

A deep voice echoed in his mind.

Chen Yue felt his consciousness quickly sinking into a deep, boundless dark space.

Although this auxiliary optical brain is only a low-level intelligence obtained from the ruins of ancient civilization No. 9, it is far inferior to advanced intelligent life like Babata.

But it's good enough for dealing with the chores of daily life.

More importantly, be obedient.

Soon, the communication was successfully connected.

Arya appeared in the virtual space in her pajamas. Her tight figure was vaguely visible under her pajamas...

"Mr. Chen Yue, why are you looking for me so urgently~" Her voice was delicate and charming.

Chen Yue frowned slightly, realizing that the other party might have misunderstood.

"I'm not looking for you to chat. I need you to help me find people to build my castle." He said bluntly.

"Oh, wait a moment." Arya responded quickly, and before she finished her words, her figure disappeared in the virtual space in an instant.

In less than a minute, Arya changed into an exquisite formal dress and appeared in front of him again.

Chen Yue couldn't help but marvel at the speed at which she changed clothes.

"Mr. Chen Yue, what service can I provide for you?" Arya asked seriously.

"I want to build my castle and I need this style." Chen Yue explained and showed her an architectural design full of Chinese style.

Arya observed it attentively, then responded with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Chen Yue. I will give you an answer within one day and guarantee to find the best craftsman on Qionglong Star for you."

"Looking forward to our next cooperation." Chen Yue smiled.

Just as he was about to exit the virtual space, Chen Yue noticed that Arya had not left. He asked curiously, "Do you have anything else to do?"

Arya asked softly, "Mr. Chen Yue, do you have no other needs?"

"...No more." After Chen Yue answered, he quickly exited the virtual space.

In reality, inside Chen Yue’s castle.

"Teacher, what happened?" Luo Feng asked anxiously when he saw Chen Yue responded as usual.

Chen Yue came back to his senses and replied calmly: "There will be news tomorrow, just wait."

"That's great." Hong also interjected, with a hint of anticipation in his voice.

Prior to this, Chen Yue had already explained his plan to Luo Feng, Hong and Lei Shen.

After purchasing a residence on Qiulong Star, the privilege he valued most was the ability to cultivate private power within his own territory.

Of course, Qiulong Star also has certain restrictions. All subordinates must be registered and can only exist as servants or followers.

This is because the laws within the empire strictly prohibit the establishment of martial arts schools, schools and other talent training institutions, and these talents must be controlled by the empire itself.

Nevertheless, establishing a family and training some disciples and servants is allowed by imperial law.

Thinking of this, Chen Yue couldn't help but think of Nuolan Mountain.

In the original novel, Nuo Lanshan was like a heavy stone, pressing down on Luo Feng before the genius battle, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

On the one hand, it was because Nuo Lan Shan himself possessed the strength of the 9th level of the universe and had cultivated six cosmic-level powerhouses; on the other hand, it was because of the huge power of the Nuo Lan Shan family, which had 9 th-level star-level Nolan guards.

With a wave of his arms, there are eight thousand level 9 stars.

Chen Yue was a little envious.

Therefore, Chen Yue also intends to cultivate his own strength. Although he cannot be compared with the third family of the Carlo Empire, such as the Nuo Lanshan Family, he hopes to add some strength to himself before the genius battle.

Luo Feng, Hong He, Lei Shen and others who heard about this plan also thought it was a feasible solution.

Regarding the issue of selecting servants, Chen Yue decided not to look for suitable candidates on Earth.

If a large number of Earth natives migrate to Qiulong Star, once the residents of other planets notice it, the existence of Earth may be leaked, which is a risk that cannot be ignored. In addition, the strength of Earthlings is relatively weak and not competent, so it is better for them to stay on Earth and develop.

Therefore, he planned to go to the slave market and buy a batch of slaves.

--------

Chen Yue came to the busy slave market. The entire market area was over 300 square kilometers, and the market was crowded with people.

He browsed the stalls, checking the prices of slaves of various grades.

To ensure the slaves' absolute loyalty, a special biochip will be implanted in their brains.

These chips are so tightly integrated into the brain that the slave is completely controlled and unable to escape their influence.

Slaves can reach up to the ninth level of the universe.

"Dear sir, what kind of slave do you need? Please allow me to provide you with the best choice." A staff member came over quickly, with an eager light in his eyes, as if he had recognized that Chen Yue might be a big customer.

"I need a few servants to take care of my daily life." Chen Yue replied calmly.

"Please follow me. These are women from the Mengbei tribe. They can definitely meet all your needs." The staff member smiled and looked at Chen Yue with eyes that only men can understand.

Chen Yue looked in the direction the staff pointed him to, and before him were rows of girls with graceful figures and flowing green hair. Some of them were charming and attractive, while others were fresh and refined, and each of them possessed astonishing beauty.

The Mengbei people, a rather tragic race.

Not only did their lord fail to protect his people, he ordered his powerful men to capture large numbers of young boys and girls and sell them as slaves.

They have been reproducing for generations, only to be sold as slaves. This is the cruel cycle of their fate.

Chen Yue's gaze searched the crowd and finally stopped on two timid girls. They looked very similar, like two newly blooming flowers.

"Just the two of them." Chen Yue's finger pointed at the two girls accurately.

The salesperson's eyes flashed with a sly light, and he praised with great enthusiasm: "Sir, you have a good eye. These two are top-notch sisters. The total price is 12000 Black Dragon Coins. They will serve you wholeheartedly and make sure you are satisfied."

He took the opportunity to add: "Sir, they are not yet mature enough. We can provide professional training to make their service more perfect." His smile made Chen Yue feel a little uncomfortable.

"No need." Chen Yue frowned.

Chen Yue turned his gaze to the other slaves again. His voice was firm and clear: "I also need some warrior attendants, stellar level."

The staff member looked up and quickly listed the price list, with a hint of surprise in his voice: "A first-level star-level warrior costs 100 million Black Dragon Coins; a fourth-level warrior costs 2000 million; a seventh-level warrior costs 5 million; an eighth-level warrior costs 20 billion; and a ninth-level warrior costs 50 billion each..."

After a period of psychological struggle, Chen Yue made up his mind and purchased 10 star-level ninth-order warriors and 10 spiritual masters of the same level, spending a total of 1000 billion Black Dragon Coins.

Although the money made him heartbroken, he thought that the Nuolanshan family's spacecraft would discover the earth sooner or later.

With a ruthless heart, he made a resolute choice.

Then, Chen Yue decided to buy a group of planetary psychics. Their mental power was extremely strong and suitable for managing some affairs.

He selected 20 planetary first-level psychics and prepared to have them serve as management.

Finally, he purchased 10 apprentice-level ninth-order slaves, both men and women, who looked similar to humans on Earth.

These 10 people served as the lower-level labor force in his castle. The unit price was only 20 Black Dragon Coins, but because Chen Yue purchased a large quantity, he finally got a 8% discount, and the total cost was only 160 million Black Dragon Coins.

Under the envious and respectful gazes of the staff, Chen Yue led two Mengbei girls and left the slave market first.

As for the other slaves, the staff guaranteed that they would be delivered safely to Chen Yue's castle.

Chen Yue walked through the bustling streets with two Mengbei girls.

He turned to them and asked, "What are your respective names?"

"My name is Isa," the first girl answered.

"My name is Ina." The second girl said immediately.

Chen Yue nodded and continued, "Okay, come with me to the Qibao store, and we'll go home after we finish shopping."

Isa and Ina nodded, not daring to resist.

They soon arrived at the Qibao store.

Chen Yue took out his membership card without hesitation and signaled the staff to call the familiar old man.

After a while, the old man came running over with a look of joy on his face: "Sir, you come to my shop again." The old man's face was full of smiles.

"Is your friend satisfied with the Heilongshan X81 spacecraft last time?" Chen Yue asked with a smile.

"Satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied." The old man responded repeatedly, "Do you have any treasures to sell to me this time?"

"I'm not here to sell anything this time. I'm here to shop," said Chen Yue.

"So what are you going to buy?" the old man asked curiously.

"I want to buy 100 kilograms of Bi Bo Sui." Chen Yue directly stated his needs.

"Bi Bo Sui, 9000 Black Dragon Coins per gram." The old man said as he took out a notebook to record.
