Chapter 142 Spend until you go bankrupt

The seven recruits were dazzled by the hundreds of trading booths in the trading area.

Even though they had relatively good families and had experienced many interstellar travels when they were in school, they had never seen so many interstellar businessmen gathering, and they were very excited.

However, Liu Cheng informed them in advance that they were about to go to the front line. Even if they wanted to browse other products, they had to browse the weapons and equipment stalls first.

Under Liu Cheng's guidance, several people went straight to the military's trading point.

"What do you need to buy?"

Behind the military booth, a veteran who had one hand replaced with a metal mechanical prosthesis asked.

The military will hire wounded and sick veterans to perform non-combat tasks, which can be considered a welfare package for wounded and sick veterans.

The veteran had obviously experienced interstellar battlefield experience, and he could tell at a glance that most of Liu Cheng's group were new recruits, presumably not for sale.

Liu Chengdao:

"Our team is going to the front line soon. I will take my team members to see if they have suitable weapons and equipment. Do you have any recommendations?"

The veteran nodded and said:

"The Corps has been undergoing large-scale mobilization in the past few days, and many soldiers have come to buy weapons and equipment. For new recruits, I recommend defensive life-saving equipment first."

The veteran used a robotic arm to take down a set of aircraft from the shelf and placed it on the table, saying:

“This set of jet boosters can fly short distances and quickly when surrounded by beasts, and is smaller than an aircraft.

The most important thing is that the price is cheap, one set only costs 150,000 Galaxy coins. "

Liu Cheng thought this equipment was very good, so he asked the seven people:

"What do you think?"

Several recruits were interested in the jet booster, but when they heard the price, they all backed down.

The richest among them, a few hundred thousand from his family would be enough for him. A set of jet boosters would cost almost half of it, so he might as well save the money to buy some other equipment.

Several recruits shook their heads and said:

"It's too expensive. Let's look elsewhere."

The veteran behind the booth laughed when he heard this. He was indeed a new recruit. He didn't know the importance of saving his life on the battlefield and said:

"Expensive? Is it as valuable as your life?

Don't blame me for not reminding you, have you seen my metal arm?

When you get to the battlefield, no matter how much money you have, you will have nowhere to spend it! "

Liu Cheng nodded and said:

"This senior is right. In this way, I will give each of you a share of one million, and you can choose the equipment you want.

Whether it's a defensive or offensive weapon, you can buy it as long as you think it might come in handy. "

"A million?! That's a lot!"

The seven recruits were surprised. They didn't expect the soldier in their class to be so rich.

The military veteran was also a little surprised. You must know that although the wages of their special operations forces are high, they are all earned with their own lives.

No matter how much money I have, I will not spend it on myself or anyone other than my family.

In addition, Liu Cheng called him senior, which made him feel more fond of Liu Cheng.

The veteran gave a thumbs up and said:

“Young man, you are so good at fighting your soldiers.

If I had fallen in love with a soldier like you, I would not have lost my arm. "

Liu Chengdao:

"I have just become a soldier commander, and I am not used to seeing people around me sacrifice.

It was their first time on the battlefield, and I wanted to do everything I could to keep them alive. "

The veteran did not hesitate and used his professional knowledge to explain the uses and functions of various weapons and equipment to Liu Cheng and the others one by one.

“This one has good performance, although it’s a little more expensive, but you can buy it.

Hey, hey, don't buy that one, that one is expensive. Although my commission is high, you might as well buy this one.

The functions are similar, and the price/performance ratio is much higher than that one, but my commission is less.

That one is fine too, no matter how few people buy it, it can play a big role at critical moments! "

It was the first time that the veteran saw Liu Cheng, a man who spent all his savings for the lives of his soldiers.

Therefore, he didn't care about making money, and directly explained it to the seven recruits with his heart and soul, and also attracted many other veterans and recruits to come and listen.

As a result, other veterans and recruits who had not originally planned to buy weapons and equipment also purchased a lot of weapons and equipment at military trading points.

The veteran was busy all morning, and when he settled the accounts at noon, he found that his turnover had broken a record.

"It's really weird. I didn't plan to make any money, but I ended up making more money than before!"

Liu Cheng originally planned that the seven recruits would spend a total of 7 million on equipment, but the budget was exceeded, and the total cost was more than 9 million.

Including the equipment and supplies he purchased himself, the total amounted to more than 10 million. Suddenly, his bank account ran out of money, and he became the pauper he had been when he just graduated.

The seven recruits were all embarrassed when they saw that they had spent so much money on Liu Cheng.

Especially the ghost, who was taught shooting skills by Liu Cheng himself, whispered guiltily:

"Captain Butcher, I'm sorry for costing you so much."

Liu Cheng thought to himself that he was not spending money, but was directly bankrupt.

But he has no regrets. After all, as long as there are star core fragments, he can make money at any time.

At this stage, the most important thing is that the people in your own squadron can survive.

He comforted:

"It's okay, don't look at your captain. I come from an ordinary family, and my ambition is to be a famous trash guy in the galaxy.

I have my own way of making money. "

The ghost also became interested upon hearing this. He felt that he could learn a lot from the butcher soldier, so he paid close attention to everything Liu Cheng mentioned.

The ghost asked curiously:

"Captain Butcher, I heard that garbage men pick up the bodies of alien creatures and dead soldiers on star battlefields. Is this industry so profitable?"

Liu Cheng explained:

“Not all trash guys can make a lot of money, you need experience and methods.

Just like being a soldier or other professions, it requires a long process of learning and accumulation. "

The ghost nodded in agreement, and then asked with some doubts:

"Captain Butcher, I heard that the reputation of garbage men is not very good. Why did you want to be a garbage man in the first place?"

Liu Cheng was silent when he heard this.

The reputation of Garbage Man is indeed not very good in the eyes of the public.

The biggest reason is that most of them, in order to make money conveniently, will take advantage of the soldiers to fight with the alien creatures and steal the bodies of the alien creatures that they have worked hard to kill.

This kind of approach that only takes credit but does not contribute is very chilling to the soldiers who protect human security.

Liu Chengdao:

“In the beginning, I did it to earn my father’s medical expenses, but now, I feel that being a trash man is not a job that distinguishes between high and low.

As for the poor reputation, it’s the majority of people who are greedy for money and forgetful about justice that make it so bad.

Not all trash guys harm the interests of the warriors. "
