Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

After returning from the Green Market, Li Zhi had been thinking about how to use his "gambler" attribute to pull off a big heist at the Beast Market.

But since the information I hadn't gathered was incomplete and I couldn't come up with any inspiration after thinking about it, I approached Celia, Huayan, and Newcy separately and asked them for their opinions on the Beast Market.

Celia: [The south is better, but taxes are heavy. The north is backward, with serious racial conflict and a low-end market; there's no need to enter it.]

Hua Yan: [I've been to the Beast Market twice. Once I went to the west side, where there were the fewest beastmen, but they were all incredibly powerful; it seemed to be where beastman shamans lived. The other time I went to the south side, which was the most prosperous, with everything imaginable, but the taxes were ridiculously high—the toll alone was 5 silver! And they took a 40% cut of everything sold there!]

New Zealand: [Merchants from the animal market often buy grain from me, and I've heard they resell it for four or five times the price, but I'm not entirely sure.]

Li Zhi seemed to be deep in thought.

Celia: [The Feathered Spirit Clan has many rules. I'll send you a copy. Don't let anything go wrong at tomorrow's trade fair.]

She accepted the document, and upon opening it, she saw the rules and customs of the Feathered Spirit Clan that stretched all the way to her feet.

Li Zhi: [You can recite all these rules by heart?]

Celia: [The highest rule of the Feathered Spirit Clan is that the strong are respected.]

Li Zhi remained silent for a moment, silently memorizing these rules.

Fortunately, her mental strength had reached 31.5, making it very easy for her to memorize these rules.

Furthermore, she still has 16 attribute points left to upgrade to C-level without allocating them.

However, since her basic attributes are now relatively balanced and her control over her body has become more and more proficient through training, she decided to keep these attribute points so that she could adapt to any situation if she were to be chased.

Just as Li Zhigang finished memorizing all the rules, he received a message from a little white dove: [Your Majesty, the Imperial Household Department has presented you with a batch of gifts. The items are too large, and bulk delivery might take too long. Would you like me to deliver them directly to you?]

Li Zhi was currently in his own spaceship, while Bai Ge and the hyena beastmen were living in the house that had just been built on the other side of the stream that day.

Give me back my 3-star, 5-fee coin!!! : [The Imperial Household Department is very thoughtful, here it is.]

She wasn't surprised.

Putting aside the fact that she sold the news that Apocalypse Dust would increase in price to the government in advance, allowing the government to arrange fishing boats to catch so much Apocalypse Dust in advance, and the fact that she let the government know before the opening so that they could buy another batch of Apocalypse Dust.

With the extreme cold over, the kill quest for the Bloodthirsty Spirit has also been completed.

She had too many things to do and didn't have time to do this task. In addition, she stayed in the Craftsman Town and avoided Luo Hong's Bloodthirsty Spirit and Bloodthirsty Demon Spirit, so she naturally didn't make it onto the leaderboard.

However, thanks to her reminder, the officials had already assembled a team and used the most lethal method to eliminate the Bloodthirsty Spirits first, reducing their chances of evolving into Bloodthirsty Demons. This not only saved more ordinary people but also likely secured them among the top ranks in the Bloodthirsty Spirits killing mission.

Under multiple circumstances, official gift-giving is inevitable.

If she were in a different position, Li Zhi would also maintain good relationships with people who could provide her with information, resources, and solutions to problems.

The little white dove quickly appeared within the airship's detection range.

Li Zhi put down the elevator.

Bai Ge looked around in amazement: "Boss, your spaceship is amazing! What kind of high-tech stuff is this? I thought it was similar to our rockets. I've only ever seen this kind of equipment in movies!"

Even after Li Zhi successfully modified her spaceship, she herself didn't take a very serious look at it.

Now that Bai Ge brought it up, she followed Bai Ge's gaze and remembered these expensive pieces of equipment, and began to introduce them one by one.

"This is a dual-core crystal-shattering engine modified with a microcrystalline energy converter. It is equipped with an energy distribution matrix and can be powered by alternating amounts of refined molten fire essence and molten gold essence from the forging clan, or by alternating amounts of Apocalypse micro-dust and Apocalypse crystal shattering. The former is the defense mode, and the latter is the cruising and attack mode, both of which can maximize energy utilization."

"That's a floating anchor stabilizer, which can maintain the ship's stability and prevent it from veering off course in areas with strong airflow."

"This is the latest triple-sensory array, the newest sensory array developed by the Witch Spirit Clan. It operates three systems simultaneously: optical, thermal, and magical fluctuation. Any creature appearing within a 20-kilometer radius will be detected."

"Those are a ley line tracker and a star-orbiting inertial navigation system. The former tracks low-altitude cloud deposits or underground energy sources, while the latter can navigate autonomously without relying on Apocalypse signals, and is resistant to interference and shielding, and also has a dual energy shield..."

Each system here was selected by Li Zhi and Sivir after communication, and is the most suitable system to be used on their own spaceship.

It completely met her requirements and suited her habits, but the renovation price was really high.

But she felt the money was well spent.

Bai Ge gently stroked the instruments: "..."

She was genuinely surprised.

With a large number of talented individuals and a substantial workforce, the organization naturally has no shortage of geniuses with various opportunities.

A weapon master who can develop energy conversion weapons between Earth and the Apocalypse Continent with just a few energy stones; a modification master who can craft flying boats with his bare hands even with materials he doesn't recognize; a peerless genius who was taken in as a disciple by a traveling alien during his flying house days after they broke through dimensional space...

Li Zhi is very talented and has a lot of opportunities.

But she is just one of many geniuses.

Just as these geniuses all have their own liaisons, Bai Ge is just one of many liaisons.

She has placed Li Zhi in an important SSS-level position.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have given up her promotion opportunity in District 15 without hesitation to come to Buwangwei, and she wouldn't have stood on Li Zhi's side without hesitation, negotiating with the organization with her interests as the priority.

But she never expected that Li Zhi could do this.

—It's not about how much money was spent on modifying this spaceship.

Moreover, these devices, instruments, and the entire modification process are things that ordinary people cannot access.

Bai Ge recognized the floating anchor stabilizer; it was a secondhand item that the 98th District research team had painstakingly purchased from the Crystal Core Clan by sending more than a dozen businessmen to different regions, spending a huge sum of money and effort.

Li Zhi's is clearly the latest model.

Triple perception array...

This was something Bai Ge had never heard of before. Just as Li Zhi had said, it must be the latest research of the Witch Spirit Clan.

Let alone humans who have only recently entered the Apocalypse Continent and haven't heard of it, most A-level races that don't associate with the Witch Spirit Clan probably haven't seen it either.

There are also dual-core crystal-breaking engines and star-orbiting inertial navigation systems, which are modified from microcrystalline energy converters and require custom-made modifications.

Only masters with a professional level of 10 or above can manually modify and assemble them.

Humanity doesn't even have a Level 4 cyborg right now, let alone a Level 10 one.

As for finding a level 10 modification master to help with the modification?

Where to look?

Do they even know you?

Why would they want to modify it for you?

Previously, Bai Ge had only seen the outer shell of the spaceship, which looked very futuristic and technologically advanced.

But that's about it.

Now, seeing the interior design and the integration and combination of different systems, Bai Ge truly realized Li Zhi's connections.
