Chapter 39 His Highness's Gift
Qu Tong turned off the computer and went to the store to pick up the express delivery.
When she turned on Jun Li's laptop this morning, she found that Gong Yun's assistant had sent her a message.
She said the military had sent her some gifts and hoped she would like them.
Qu Tong took the package and saw two space buttons.
The fact that the space button can be used means that it is a relatively large or valuable object. Qu Tong was not in a hurry to open it, but went home to check it out.
When Qu Tong opened the first space button, her eyes lit up. The space ring was full of medicinal herbs, half of which were raw materials for mental stabilizing potions, enough for her for the next year.
Some of the raw materials of the mind-stabilizing potion are public on the Internet. Even if they are not public, the herbs used in large quantities can be detected by machines, and the rest are herbs used in trace amounts and do not cost much.
The remaining half was many rare medicinal herbs that were not on her medicine list, but were all very valuable.
This gift is so thoughtful.
When he opened the second space button, Qu Tong was a little shocked.
A pile of energy stones.
This is quite a bold move.
She had read on the Star Network before that energy stone was an extremely rare mineral material, very valuable, and contained energy that could be used in various machines. It was also the only starting energy source for the planet's protective shield.
This small pile probably has about 70 or 80 of them, each the size of two fists, and is estimated to be worth about 10 or 20 million star coins.
The value far exceeds the potions she sells.
Qu Tong once suspected that Gong Yun and the others accidentally sent an extra space button.
The amount of medicinal materials given away is reasonable, only about two to three million.
So Qu Tong asked Gong Yun's assistant whether it was sent to the wrong person and whether he wanted her to send it back.
I didn't expect the other party to call me directly.
Assistant Fu Jin's voice was full of laughter, very clean and refreshing: "Miss Jun, just keep it, Commander Gong did not send it to the wrong place. Your medicine is very important to us, so Commander Gong allocated 30% of the Pharmacist Guild's semi-annual material requirements to you. This is what we should have given you."
Fu Jin called him "you" every time in a very respectful manner.
"Is there such a benefit?" Qu Tong was surprised.
"Yes, most of the supply of medicines is tilted to the army, so it is normal for us to give more compensation. Besides, our army is fighting outside all year round, so it is naturally more convenient for them to collect supplies."
Qu Tong nodded and accepted it without hesitation. It just happened to be what she needed. If she didn't accept it, it would be a good deal for the Pharmacists Guild.
"Then thank your commander for me. I'll give you 10 more bottles next month."
“That’s great!”
After hanging up the phone, Qu Tong checked the received medicinal materials again.
What surprised her was that there was actually a seven-leaf heart among them, which was a good thing for her. She had searched many Chinese herbal medicine shops before but only found one, and the price was extremely expensive.
It goes without saying that these precious medicinal materials are required by the Pharmacist Guild, but it just so happens that she can make some other potions.
She has the energy stone, but unfortunately she doesn’t have a planetary protection shield, so she can only put it in the space box to collect dust.
I checked the price of planetary shields online.
Between 10 million and 50 million, it’s okay, still acceptable.
For her small planet, it would be enough to buy something worth more than 10 million.
However, she was a little confused. If she kept spending money like this, when would she be able to pay the taxes?
Failure to pay the 0.5% late payment penalty per day would be a considerable sum of money.
After much hesitation, I still didn't buy it.
*
Si Yuting, who had just returned from the battlefield, received news from the butler.
[Your Highness, the lady has been looking at the planetary shield from us for a long time, but she didn't buy it. ]
lady?
Which lady?
Si Yuting didn't react for a moment.
After a little thought, I realized that Butler Chi was talking about the second young lady of the Qu family.
Many industries in the empire are under state control, and the company that produces planetary protection shields is under his name.
The planetary protection cover needs to be customized, and to check the price, one needs to enter the real name information of the individual and the planet, so it is not surprising that Butler Chi knows about it.
I think it was used for the planet given to her by her mother.
Why didn’t you buy it?
[Prepare a set of the planetary protection shield and prevention and control facilities she saw and send them to this address.] Si Yuting made the decision without much hesitation.
He retrieved the address of satellite No. 1757 and Qu Tong’s contact number and sent them over.
Butler Chi: [Okay! Your Highness! ]
These two exclamation marks are very spiritual.
Butler Chi, who was still smiling from the aunt's smile, received another message: [Don't notify me of this kind of thing in the future. ]
Butler Chi: [Understood! ]
It will be delivered directly without any notification. I understand!
A few days later, there was a knock on Qu Tong's door.
Li Kun and his two companions, along with four or five other people in uniform, stood outside the yard.
Qu Tong looked at Li Kun and the other three with a confused face.
One of them spoke up.
"Hello, Miss Qu. We are the staff of Zhongyuan Company. We are here to help you install and adjust the central control equipment."
"What central control device?"
"It is a comprehensive central control console for the planet that includes equipment such as the planetary protection shield, air defense detectors, particle bullet defense system, and infrared tracking system," the staff explained.
Qu Tong opened her lips slightly. She didn't quite understand some of the technical terms, but she understood them anyway.
The expressions of Li Kun and the other two changed, showing shock, horror, and disbelief.
This little piece of trash, no, the little ancestor is the master of the planet.
Ahhhh!
What did they do before?!
They won't be driven off the planet.
“I didn’t buy any of these things.”
Qu Tong was very sure that he did not have the habit of sleepwalking and would not get up in the middle of the night to place an order.
The staff member turned on the computer and pulled up the purchase receipt: "This was sold through an internal sales channel. Maybe one of your relatives or friends is a senior executive of our company and bought it for you."
Qu Tong had some guesses in mind and turned on the computer.
There were no unread messages in the pinned dialog box, and the Queen and the Emperor were also quiet.
There is a new friend request.
Qu Tong clicked it.
Sure enough, the verification message read: [Madam, I am His Highness's personal butler. His Highness asked me to prepare a gift for you. I will come to your house in the next two days. Madam, please agree. If you have any questions, please come to me.]
It turned out to be the work of her cheap husband.
Then she won't be polite.
After agreeing to the friend request, Qu Tong asked the staff to start working.
The leading staff member professionally explained to her the usage and purpose of various equipment.
It took five workers and two large machines three full days to completely install and debug it.
Standing in the space capsule in the center console control room, looking at the monitoring images of the entire planet's airspace on the full-window screen, I suddenly felt like a local dog in outer space.
It's quite high-end.
It's really cool to feel that the entire planet is in your control!
Now, the entire planet is covered by an invisible shield, and the management authority of the entire interstellar space has been connected to his own optical computer.
The entire configuration was very complete, much more complete than what she had seen at first.
You don’t have to guess that it costs a lot.
Today I started the second round of PK. I was stuck here last time. It's a pity...
Please collect, vote, comment, and do whatever you want. Of course, it would be even better if you can give a good review or share it to the square. Thank you, babies.
Special thanks to caroletu for the tips these two days~
