Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1442 Procurement

The strict ban on smoking was a bit difficult for Dui and Lieutenant Cao Wei. They didn't like smoking much, but after joining the war, they urgently needed something to relax their nerves.

As a result, I have become a heavy smoker now.

However, Green Light is not completely non-smoking. You just have to go to the designated smoking area to smoke. Otherwise, if you don't change your ways, the consequences will be dire.

After giving a few instructions on what to pay attention to, Alyssa and the others boarded the trolley bus.

Although the style is very different from that of ordinary space stations, the infrastructure is not much different. It has everything it should have, but it is hidden among the plants and is not so conspicuous.

When Alyssa came to the Green Light, of course she couldn't just go straight to the person in charge of the space station. Which side are you on?

She needed to investigate in secret, and she also needed to contact the local Whirlpool Federation spies and ask for their opinions.

Therefore, the destination of the trolley bus is the meeting point.

Everyone quickly got off the bus and walked out of the station. Looking up, they could see a huge oak tree nearly twenty stories high sticking out in their field of vision, as huge as supporting their upper and lower eyelids.

Several neat streets can be seen under the big oak trees, and of course, the greenery is surprisingly good.

The big oak tree is actually a hotel, but the tree gradually covered the hotel and its main body is completely invisible.

This area is where foreign merchants gather, and can be considered the commercial district of the Emerald Light Space Station.

Although the Green Light has strict control over personal force and even smoking, it does not mean that they are easy to deal with.

In this commercial district, you can see numerous shops opened by black marketeers, some of whom are locals and some are outsiders who did not have time to escape due to the war.

Nowadays, no matter what business you do, you need a license, but not all businesses will be issued a license.

If you simply want to open a small shop, it is of course easy to apply for a license. However, if what you sell is not so legal, or requires a qualifications review and you cannot pass the review, then you can only operate without a license.

Black traders are those who operate without a license.

Many of the things they sell are smuggled goods, controlled goods, or even prohibited items.

For example, as soon as the four of them walked into the street, they saw a shop at the door selling slaves...

A serious country or a serious space station would definitely not allow it, but the space station has autonomy, and even if the Emerald Light says it is willing, there is really nothing we can do about it.

Black marketeers can bring huge profits to the space station, and they are also the few guys who dare to sail when two countries are at war. The bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish.

In addition to black market traders, there are also some shops run by local recyclers.

The composition of recyclers is too complicated. They are a collection of marginal people such as black market traders, pirates, interstellar adventurers, rag pickers, etc. The only difference between them and most marginal people is that recyclers are pirates with privateering licenses.

The things they sell are also illegal, but they have a license, and a license means it is legal.

So you can see all kinds of things for sale on this street, some people even put field guns at their doorsteps as a sign to attract customers.

Alyssa crossed the street, not just passing by, she was thinking about whether to buy something.

After all, the reason for the Swan's entry into the port was shopping, so it does seem a bit strange to just pass by here without looking at anything.

What's more, this action is clearly a military act. As long as it is not too excessive, the military will reimburse the purchases.

Just as I was thinking about whether to buy some natural foods or smuggled liquor to supplement the crew on the ship, Li Chengxi suddenly said:

"I want that."

"Ah?" "The cannon."

Li Chengxi has always wanted to get a few cannons for Viola, but he never had the chance.

If you tell Jiuke that you can get 155 in some subjects, Jiuke will say you are dreaming.

I asked Alyssa to get some four-legged turrets, but she said she couldn't apply for them.

The Ninth Department couldn't make the decision, and Alyssa couldn't apply to the quartermaster with a suitable reason. Now that she saw a black market dealer selling arms, of course she had to go check it out.

Alyssa didn't object. A few cannons didn't cost much, but she had to pay for it. It would be difficult to get reimbursement from the military afterwards, and there was no way to explain why the ammunition that should have been in the warehouse disappeared.

Since not many people came to Green Light, there were certainly few customers. Alyssa took people into the store to have a look. The clerk immediately cheered them up with 200% enthusiasm and said that we were having a big opening sale with a % discount on all goods.

What grand opening sale? It's obvious that they just want to sell the things quickly and run away with the money. After all, it's on the border between two countries and it's not a safe place.

Alyssa knew this very well, so she turned on the picky mode.

The arms that black market dealers can get are basically second-hand. Unless they have connections, it is unlikely that they can get new ones.

But it doesn’t matter if it’s second-hand goods, as long as it can be used, and the price is cheaper.

But Alyssa seized the opportunity to bargain hard because it was second-hand. One moment she said the rifling of your gun was almost worn out, and the next moment she said the oil in your four-legged walking turret was not enough and she had to give her a set of maintenance equipment.

In short, it was a crazy bargaining session.

Now the buyers are the bosses, so there is no need to worry that they will not sell.

Li Chengxi only needs to be responsible for "I want this" and "I want that", and Alyssa will take care of the rest.

Although he saw the big thing like the four-legged walking turret, considering the size of his own garage, it would be very troublesome even if he disassembled it into parts and gave it to Viola. In the end, he bought 12 122 shaped charge cannons, 50 60mm mortars, 10 100mm rocket launchers, and supporting maintenance equipment.

I originally wanted to get a few more armored vehicles, preferably tanks, but the black market didn't have that kind of stuff, and those things were really too big, so I had to give up.

There are rifles, and in sufficient quantities, at least a few thousand of them, which is a piece of cake.

But the price is a bit too high, higher than that of a cannon, and it consumes a lot of bullets. Without a complete supply, its significance is not very obvious.

So in terms of firearms, they just added twenty more heavy machine guns and a large amount of bullets. I believe that with these heavy weapons, Viola will have an easier time in the next attack on the Subia Demon Kingdom.

Finally, I bought nearly 10,000 rounds of various artillery shells from this store, getting everything done in one stop and clearing out the black marketeer's inventory.

The store owner will be responsible for packing the goods and sending them to the Swan. Alyssa paid a deposit, and the balance will have to wait until the goods arrive.

Maybe there had been no customers for a long time, and while the price was haggled down severely, the store owner also gave Alyssa an exquisite gold revolver.

It looks like a revolver, but it is actually a plasma gun. It is quite powerful and is beyond the limits of the Emerald Light.

After leaving the arms dealer's store, Alyssa ran to a store selling natural foods.

Alyssa is a good captain and a good boss. She will never treat her crew badly. As long as you work with me, I guarantee you will have a good life.

And this part of the expenses can be reimbursed by the military.

After a big shopping spree, Alyssa led her people to the big oak tree. Now it was time to get down to business and meet with the Whirlpool Federal agents lurking here.
