Chapter 921 Other Payment Methods
After entering the interstellar era, since the currencies of various planets cannot be unified, trade on different planets is mainly settled with gold as the base currency.
This hard currency can be exchanged for local currency on any planet, and some space stations only accept gold coins.
The troublesome part is that Alyssa has no money.
Unless the funds in the recycler's account can be transferred to Alyssa's name, she won't be able to get out even 500, let alone 5,000.
Of course, when doing business, you can’t just say how much money you have.
And, there are other ways to pay.
"The price is too expensive and I can't accept it."
Alyssa said and knocked on the table:
"If you don't let go, then I'll just take the starship's information."
Eunice watched Alyssa knocking on the table, and she suddenly laughed when she heard this.
"As expected, you are a blood relative of James Lee. It seems that you have a wide network of contacts."
"Generally, in the business of being a recycler, connections are more important than money."
On the solid wood table, a simple emblem was scratched out by Alyssa's fingernails. It was the emblem of the Mormo Ship Administration.
In other words, Alyssa is telling her, I have someone here, if you help me, I can also do something for you.
This cannot be said openly, just like slang cannot be said to people who do not understand it. It is a business rule.
After all, if your random words involve others, that would be bad.
Eunice pressed her fingers on the badge that Alyssa scratched out, and with a tooth-crushing scratching sound, the badge was rubbed away.
Alyssa frowned, which meant that Eunice did not accept Alyssa's proposal.
"I can open a bar here and still have some friends."
"So, what do you want besides money?"
"emmm..."
Eunice moved her eyes away from Alyssa's face and glanced around the people behind her.
"Like your grandfather, there are always a group of weirdos around him, but these kind of weirdos should not be underestimated."
She relit the pipe that had been extinguished after not smoking for a long time:
"I have a treasure here that a young man got when he went on an adventure with the fleet, but this thing was recently stolen by a gangster from the next block."
"We are not thieves."
"Of course not. I need you to use force to help me get it back. By the way..."
Eunice gestured to her neck.
"You have a battleship, don't fool me. If you don't have a battleship, you can't catch up with the starship. Help me get the treasure back, and get rid of those guys' ships by the way. The information will be yours."
"Then we'll be wanted by the Mormors for firing in a safe area, right?"
"As long as you move fast enough, the Mormor Planetary Defense Force won't be able to catch you. My people will also help. This is a good deal."
Alyssa was obviously thinking about it.
It's not terrible to offend the Mormo officials. After all, Alyssa has connections here. As long as she doesn't attack official warships or facilities, this can be turned into a major issue.
If Eunice's opponents are only at the level of Zaitan 13's main gang, everything is easy to say, but if not, it may be more troublesome.
The most important question is whether Carlos is worth the risk for Alyssa.
After all, Eunice had promised to give information about the starship. Alyssa closed her eyes and tapped her temples with her fingers. After about a minute, she said:
"I basically agree, but I want to know the opponent's intelligence."
"You're really good at business, but I said, hey, no problem."
–‐‐——–‐‐——
Eunice's enemy is on Fourth Avenue next door, which mainly operates casinos and a small amount of pornography.
The reason why he is hostile to Eunice actually has little to do with the so-called treasure.
Eunice can sell alcohol on the space station, and this is not done with just half a license.
Wine is a rare commodity in the void. After all, wine requires a large amount of food, and food can only be produced on earth-like planets or agricultural colonies. The space station is too small, and it is impossible to have enough food to make wine.
And wine is a liquid, so transporting it from an Earth-like planet is troublesome. What's more, most countries have strict regulations on alcohol, so you can't just do it if you want.
Eunice's most profitable business now is the wine shipped from Mormo. These wines have no production labels or any execution standards, and are not even OEM, but the taste is no different from the genuine ones.
This is a batch of moonshine that does not pay taxes.
Then sell these wines at high prices, and the profit margin is ridiculously high.
Of course, Eunice couldn't eat such a big cake in one sitting. There were so many people in this chain of interests that even a small notebook couldn't keep track of them.
Originally, the business was going well, but somehow the gang in the next block also managed to get through to the hen that laid the golden eggs.
As the saying goes, taking someone's wealth is like killing one's parents. Eunice couldn't bear this. The two sides had many conflicts, but they were limited to conflicts and did not cross the line.
Today I'll smash your sign, and tomorrow I'll steal your order or something. It's quite restrained.
But Eunice knows that this kind of restraint may not last long, because the opponent's gang was originally a group of void pirates, and the current restraint is just that she is a newcomer in Zatan 13. If she is too showy, she will be attacked by the group.
Once you go too far, you may suffer a loss. After all, Eunice does not have a battleship, but the original void pirates do.
The so-called treasure was actually stolen by Eunice on purpose, just to make her famous.
Originally, Eunice planned to find a way to solve the problem after taking care of the drunkards in the bar. Alyssa happened to be here. Wouldn't it be a pity not to use this kind of labor.
That's right, Eunice didn't think Alyssa could afford the intelligence fee of five thousand gold coins from the beginning.
In Zatan 13, if two gangs conflict and fight with real swords and guns, there are some rules that need to be followed. It is completely different from the situation in Guest Star City where as long as it does not harm the interests of the Hard Gang, the rest is completely casual. different.
First of all, if you want to fight, you can't make a sneak attack, you have to declare war openly.
The second thing is that you can't hurt other people, especially you can't use weapons powerful enough to damage the stability of Zatan 13.
As for other details, there are no other details. The outcome will be decided by fighting.
"I understand the truth, but why do I have to go to the battlefield?"
Fang Lanyin covered her head and hid behind the bunker, while laser beams and physical bullets flew over from time to time.
She took out the pistol and exposed herself from the bunker. She didn't even see in which direction there were enemies. In short, she just fired a few shots, and the main thing was to take random shots.
"I'm a technician and a scholar! Even I'm on the list!"
Next to Fang Lanyin, Villania was also huddled in the bunker. As for shooting, forget it. She could only pick up something that was not sure whether it was a grenade or a flash bomb and shoot it in the direction of the bullet. leave.
This time, the halfling's height advantage came to the fore, and she was very safe behind the cover.
In addition to the two of them, several of Eunice's men were also behind the bunker, but they were much more professional, chugging and ahhing at the same time.
All in all, it looks very intense.
