My Doomsday Train.

Chapter 304 "Two, three, two, five, six!" (Seeking monthly votes)
Half an hour later.

Biaozi, Qiu Yisao, and Zhou Shen had all appeared in the train compartment. In addition, there was a middle-aged man who was a stranger. He was the same man who had kicked Qi Kexiu out of the company that day.

"Are you crazy?"

"What do you want? Do you know who I am? How dare you kidnap me!"

"If you lay a finger on me, you will all be executed!"

The middle-aged man struggled violently, shouting angrily.

"."

Biaozi looked expectantly at Qi Kexiu standing to the side, but seeing that he did not react at all and just stood there quietly with his head down, he couldn't help but sigh: "How boring. Shouldn't you have gone up and said something like 'Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river' at this time? I gave you a chance to slap him in the face, but you were useless."

Then he walked over to Chen Mang and whispered.

"Mr. Mang."

“We only caught this man. According to Qi Kexiu’s description, this man is a team leader in the company. When Qi Kexiu was still in the company, they were competitors.”

“There are many surveillance cameras in Sanshui City, so we thought we'd come back first and then go arrest someone of a higher status.”

"Ah."

Chen Mang nodded slightly. This space interception would require close combat. They needed to get inside the enemy train and take control of the train conductor as soon as possible to ensure the absolute integrity of the cargo. This meant they needed someone of high enough status to trick the enemy into opening the train doors.

Just as he was about to say something!
"You guys don't really think I'm a team leader, do you?"

"Tell you!"

The middle-aged man, bound with rope and left in the corner, sneered unabashedly, "I'm actually the eldest son of a core high-ranking member of the 'Jiang Family.' I was sent to the company simply to gain experience and make money."

"No one in the entire Sanshui City is as valuable as me!"

“The Jiang family is one of the top families in the entire peace-seeking civilization. How dare you provoke me? Release me now, and I can let bygones be bygones. You have two paths to choose from.”

"."

"."

"."

The words fell.

Everyone inside the train carriage immediately turned their heads with strange expressions to look at the middle-aged man in the corner.

"that."

Biaozi whispered, "Is he qualified?"

"enough."

Chen Mang couldn't help but shake his head and laugh: "That's more like it. It fits my stereotype of rich kids. Let's drag this out and get ready to leave."

"Qi Kexiu, Qi Kexiu!!"

Seeing that this group of people were completely unafraid of his background, the middle-aged man, whose eyes finally showed a hint of fear, looked at Qi Kexiu and roared with a ferocious expression: "Was it you who did this? You sent people to kidnap me? How dare you!"

Qi Kexiu didn't speak, but simply avoided the man's violent gaze.

"Ugh."

Old Pig sighed softly and patted Qi Kexiu on the shoulder: "It's okay, you and I are both in logistics, so it's okay to be a little timid."

"It's out of the way."

"You were a coward when you were alone, but now that you have the Stellar as your backer, why are you still a coward? This kind of personality isn't good, you're so soft and timid."

"Woo."

The horn sounded.

The warehouse doors, situated in the wilderness of Sanshui city, slowly opened, and the Hengxing train slowly pulled out of the warehouse and headed towards the "train dock".

The train dock and the "port" are two different places.

All trains entering the Seeking Peace Civilization must land at the train dock. Trains carrying cargo need to go to the port for clearing, inspection, and taxation. Zhou Shen is in charge of the port, but the train dock is not under his jurisdiction.

but--

At this point, the Stellar was identified as a train belonging to the Sweep Merchant Guild.

In addition, he wasn't wanted by the police.

They can come and go freely.

Soon it entered the train dock, slowly flew into the air, broke out of the atmosphere, and soon arrived in outer space. It first traveled slowly for several tens of minutes, and then sped into the depths of space.

Countless stars dotted the dark curtain.

Like a long, mechanical dragon, the Stellar train swiftly traverses the universe, avoiding meteorite fragments and space debris traveling at high speeds. At the same time, the debris generated by the Stellar train and the Blue Planet in recent days is also left in space.

A perfect place to dump a body.

The goal is extremely clear.

It pointed directly at the "Jiang Family" Chamber of Commerce train.
-
"If both sides maintain a constant speed, the meeting is expected to take four hours and thirty-seven minutes."
-
After glancing at the information on the control panel, Chen Mang turned to Zhang Yiren beside him and whispered, "Well, are you done writing?"

"Right away, right away"

At this moment, Zhang was sitting at a table and chair inside the train, writing rapidly on a slice of bread with a pen with an extremely fine tip. There were already more than a dozen slices of bread stacked together next to him.

Yes.

This is his new idea!

Chen Mang looked at the scene before him without speaking, patiently waiting.

The white-grade accessory "Moldy Bread Slice Production Line" has a level 200 god-tier supermodel effect—

"After writing the information on a slice of bread and consuming it, the recorded information will be remembered for life."

It looks like a memory bank.

It's just a bit cheaper.

But actually...
The difference is huge!

For example, implanting a memory of "moldy bread slices" does not require any mental strength, and it is not like "memory surgery" that requires the patient to accept or resist, otherwise the implantation will not be successful.

Bread slices don't have these kinds of laughs and jokes.

Ignoring mental strength, forced implantation!

This means that, theoretically, he could alter anyone's memory and implant whatever he wanted into each person's memory.

but.
This process is actually quite complicated, since it's unclear what each person has in their memories. So, we can only try our best to implant memories that don't violate logic or personal habits. It's most suitable for Zhang to do this kind of thing.

Don't say it.

A pen like this is really needed on the train; you can use it from time to time.

finally--

Zhang Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead and put down his pen: "I'm done writing. I didn't dare to write too many logical paragraphs or stories. I wrote some fragments of memories. However, most of my childhood memories are rather vague. If I add more details to my childhood memories, it's hard for me to notice."

"Bring that guy up here."

soon.

The middle-aged man, who was in a coma, was brought up. Biaozi stepped forward, stuffed a piece of bread into a ball, and tried to put it into the man's mouth, but it was difficult to put anything into his mouth when he was in a coma.

"I come."

At this moment, Qi Kexiu, wearing medical gloves, came up and unbuttoned the clothes of the middle-aged man lying on the operating table. Then, he took out a scalpel from his pocket, put the blade to his mouth, and breathed on it.

Only then did he plunge the blade into the man's abdomen and slowly pull it out.

Fat particles mixed with blood plasma flowed out.

However, Qi Kexiu completely ignored all of this with a serious expression, pulled out the man's stomach, and cut it open with a knife.

Then he twisted all the dozen or so bread slices into a ball and stuffed them inside.

He took out a small bottle from his pocket and dripped a few drops of liquid into it.

The food began to rot rapidly.

"A small beverage to aid digestion."

After finishing all this, Qi Kexiu whispered while stitching up the wound, "President Ai showed me around the train. It has a lot of advanced technology, like a 'simple medical kit' that's very effective for external injuries. This level of surgery allows for a very fast recovery."

"."

Biaozi stared blankly at the scene before him, and after a long while, he murmured, "I thought you were afraid to fight and draw blood."

"No."

Qi Kexiu shook his head and said in a low voice, "I'm not a coward, I just like to do things efficiently. He's already a dead man, there's no point in me cursing at him or slapping him a few times."

"pattern."

Biaozi gave a thumbs up with some emotion: "It just doesn't sound very smart."

Twenty minutes later.

Under everyone's gaze, the middle-aged man groggily woke up, straightened up from the operating room, and looked at the crowd around him. Zhang Yiren, who was standing behind Chen Mang, hurriedly introduced him: "This is Master Mang."

The middle-aged man's expression changed, and he immediately got up and knelt on one knee: "Godfather, you've finally come to find me!"

"These years"

"Father, why haven't you ever looked at me once all these years!"

"And why were I brought here in the first place?"

The man looked up at Chen Mang, about to say something, but a hint of bewilderment flashed in his eyes: "Is it because we haven't seen each other for so long? Why do you seem so unfamiliar, like I've never met you before?"

next moment--

Standing to the side, CEO Ai pressed the button in his hand, and the man fell into a deep sleep again.

"It's not very feasible."

Zhang Yiren said awkwardly, "Memory is composed of many factors, including words, images, sounds, even the atmosphere and the emotions at the time. 'Bread' can only implant textual memories, which means that the implanted memories are like castles in the air, unable to withstand close scrutiny."

"Unlike memories implanted in a memory bank, which are absolutely real memories that actually happened, the scent, emotions, and images are all pre-existing."

“I have tried my best to manipulate his vague childhood memories.”

"But it seems that this can only be maintained for a short time, probably only a few hours. After a few hours, the other party will find out what's going on and realize what's happening."

"Okay."

Chen Mang sat in his chair and said with a smile, "Let him sleep for now, and we'll wake him up when we're about to meet."

"Okay, let's all get down."

"Old Pig, take Qiu Yisao and Zhou Shen to visit the train. From now on, they'll all be our own people."

"clear."

The scenery in the universe is always captivating.

Chen Mang leaned back in his chair in front of the control panel, gazing at the deep universe ahead, which resembled a pitch-black curtain, and at the progress bar on the screen beside him that was gradually shortening.
-
"The formal meeting is expected in one minute."
-
"Should we wake him up?"

Chen Mang grabbed the train radio intercom from the side and forcibly transmitted the message to the train approaching him from a distance: "Stop the train, the Jiang family has arrived."

soon.

He could already see a train approaching through the curtain in the distance with his naked eye.

However, the speed gradually decreased.

"Have people from the Jiang family arrived?"

The train conductor of the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce train sat in his chair, looking at the private chat coming from the train radio with a look of vigilance in his eyes. The goods he was transporting this time were of considerable value, and before he set off, his boss had specifically instructed him that nothing could go wrong on this trip.

He wasn't stupid enough to believe the other party when they said they were from the Jiang family.

but.
The train drove toward him without activating any energy shields.

That left him no choice but to believe it.

In the universe.

When a train approaches you without activating any energy shield, that's the greatest act of kindness, bar none.

Pirates usually travel in groups, not on a train; the other party clearly doesn't seem to be pirates.

at this time--

Another voice came through the train radio.

"My name is Jiang Sheng, I am the team leader of 'Sanshui Feiyang Technology Co., Ltd.', and also the eldest son of the second-in-command of the Jiang family. I have an important order to deliver personally. Open the car door before leaving, and do not fail to comply."

"Two, three, two, five, six!" the train conductor hoarsely announced, his vigilance unwavering.

"Two three two five seven, two eight two nine thirty one."

Jiang Sheng's slightly tired voice rang out.

next moment!
On that train, a man in a spacesuit slowly approached his train with the help of thrusters.

The password is correct!

See this.

He had no more doubts and hurriedly looked at his deputy beside him: "Deactivate the energy shield, open the car door, and welcome Young Master Jiang into the car."

He had met Jiang Sheng before. There had been rumors that Jiang Sheng might be an illegitimate child of the Jiang family, since the surname was too conspicuous. He never expected that she would be the eldest son of the second-in-command of the Jiang family, especially since she came alone.

He was very familiar with Jiang Sheng's voice.

Even if someone has malicious intentions, what kind of trouble can they cause?

He had no choice but to believe it.

The only thing that puzzled him was why this guy was carrying a refrigerator on his shoulder.

Could the refrigerator contain the items to be delivered this time?
When the middle-aged man boarded the train belonging to the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce, he glanced around, and his previously cloudy eyes instantly cleared. He threw the refrigerator on the ground and spoke urgently with an angry and ferocious tone!
"Activate the energy shield! Fire! Fire!!"

"They were pirates who kidnapped me to intercept my cargo and implanted some jumbled memories into my head!"

"I tricked them into boarding the train alone, and before they could react, I struck first!"

"Quick!"

The middle-aged man looked at the somewhat bewildered train conductor in front of him, and couldn't help but stride forward with a hint of exasperation, just about to say something more.

"Tu tu tu tu!!"

A sharp gunshot suddenly rang out inside the carriage.

Pain and burning sensations instantly swept over his nerves.

He vaguely saw countless bullets, as if they were passing through his body and heading towards the train conductor in front of him. In his final moments, lying in a pool of blood, his last thought flashed through his mind.

When I was in school.

The teacher told him that if he blew a breath now, a particle crisis might erupt deep in the universe because of his breath.

He recalled scoffing at the idea, thinking they were two completely unrelated things.

but--

When he realized for certain that he was about to die, he believed it.

He somewhat regretted kicking Zhou Shen out of the company that day.

If that hadn't happened.

Perhaps he won't die?

His life force was rapidly fading away. He had never clearly felt his life force dissipating so quickly. At this moment, his mind was suddenly extremely calm. There was no pleading, no fear. It was as if he was looking at himself from a third-person perspective.

Look back on your life.

like
He hadn't properly said goodbye to his wife yet. This morning, when he left home, he hadn't finished the bowl of egg noodles his wife had made, which made her angry, and he hadn't yet coaxed her. He was planning to do so after get off work.

I never imagined that would be the last time I ate egg noodles, the last time I saw someone.

The man's eyelids drooped slowly. In his last moments, he saw a pair of iron boots standing in a pool of blood beside him.

It's over
"ended."

Biaozi, wearing iron boots, stepped into the pool of blood, holding the "Giant Wave Gatling Gun." He glanced around the train, then aimed at the several corpses on the ground and pulled the trigger before whispering, "Boss Ai, the train conductor has been confirmed dead."

"Clean the train."

"Yes!"

If the train conductor dies, the train will instantly become ownerless.

Otherwise, the built-in fire control system alone would be enough to give them trouble.

We must act quickly.

Before the train conductor could react, they entered the train and shot him dead.

Biaozi looked at the team behind him, waved his hand, and a large number of "armed black hole robots" came out of the refrigerator and strode toward the rear carriage, calling out names and cleaning them one by one.

This operation was classified.

To prevent information leakage.

No one left alive.

“Chuchu chuchu!!!”

Gunfire rang out continuously from the back of the carriage, and every now and then an armed black hole robot was hit and collapsed to the ground amidst a flash of electricity. It would be better to leave this kind of exploration work to robots.

Two hours later.

"boom!"

After a few breaths of preparation, the "Acanon Photon Main Cannon" of the Stellar fired a shot at the train of the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce not far away. As the towering flames silently exploded in the depths of space, the operation also meant that it was coming to an end.

There were no unexpected incidents or mistakes throughout the entire process.

Everything was carried out strictly according to plan.

"gorgeous."

Chen Mang sat on the train, gazing at the towering flames ahead, and murmured.

Like a silent film, it is deafeningly loud even though it is silent.

this world.

It was much crueler than the world he had lived in before.

In the apocalypse, there are only two kinds of people: train conductors and slaves.

After entering the era of space civilization.

There are still only two kinds of people.

Hunter and prey.

Either you hunt others or you are hunted; there is no option for peace. All peaceful coexistence is predicated on both sides believing it is difficult to swallow the other. Such peace is as fragile as the moon's reflection in water.

Peace can be shattered with just one stone.

He didn't want to be the one being bullied.

"Mr. Mang."

Old Pig, glancing at the information on the tablet, reported, "Mission a complete success. No one was injured, and the cargo is 100% intact. We've already had 'Qi Kexiu' inspect it; they said these high-precision instruments are relatively basic, but complete enough."

"It can be used to develop blueprints for some higher-level components."

"As for the blueprints for higher-level components, those instruments are strictly controlled by the Kasa civilization and are very difficult to obtain."

"very good."

Chen Mang nodded and chuckled; he was quite satisfied with the result.

"In addition, we also acquired a resource with nearly 17 billion units of copper ore, nearly 30 billion units of iron ore, and a small amount of other resources."

Not too much. But it's understandable; it's a merchant guild train, so providing basic resources for navigation and defense is sufficient.

No information was conveyed.

No one knows what happened here.

Everything happened without anyone noticing. As long as they didn't say anything, the Jiang family would never know who had stolen the goods.

but.
at this time--

"Didi di di di!!!"

The radar kept beeping, and suddenly some glaring red dots appeared on the screen.

"Ok?"

Chen Mang frowned slightly as he looked at the radar screen. He saw a large number of trains, more than nine hundred in total, lined up in a row, heading towards him from the direction of the "Peace-Seeking Civilization".

Based on the opponent's speed.

If he stays in the same place.

We are expected to meet in 21 hours.

"Is the reaction so quick?"

He squinted at the hundreds of red dots on the screen. Unlike other trains, these trains all bore the mark of "peace-seeking civilization." In other words, they were official trains belonging to the military!

Each one is a high-class train.

Most of them are around level 30.

The main guns are all between level 50 and 70.

The defense level is uniformly level 30.

For him.

This was a small group of Karami, not nearly enough to defeat him, but in this area, this force was already extremely powerful, a force ready to go to war.

"Bring Zhou Shen over here."

"Let him take a look."

soon--

Zhou Shen strode over, looked at the hundreds of red dots on the screen, paused for a moment, then a look of horror flashed in his eyes and he subconsciously exclaimed, "It's over!"

"It's not over yet."

Chen Mang curled his lip: "If they come to ambush me, they will never be able to gamble on me in their entire lives."

"It's not that we're finished, it's that the civilization of seeking peace is finished."

Zhou Shen's voice trembled slightly.

"Everyone underestimates the newly appointed leader. In recent days, after a dramatic change in the leadership of the peace-seeking civilization, a young man who was not particularly noticeable in his daily life has taken the position of leader. To be honest, most people don't know how he got there."

"but--"

"The Seeking Peace Civilization has only 1600 mechanical trains in service, of which 1086 were jointly built by the Seeking Peace Civilization and various families. They are the private weapons of the families and are not subject to the Civilization's command on a regular basis."

"And now!"

"More than 900 trains were used, yet no information was leaked. This means the new leader of the civilization secretly controls a considerable number of trains, and their target this time is the 'Jiang Family' Chamber of Commerce train."

"I thought the leader's purpose this time was to give the Jiang family a warning, like a new broom sweeping clean."

"Now it seems."

"The whole thing was to completely destroy the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce train, to ensure that the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce would not be able to produce any equipment during the inspection a few days later, and then use that as an excuse to start a war directly."

"On the day of the inspection, key members of the Jiang family will also be present."

"From the very beginning, this leader did not come to intimidate us, but directly to start a war with the Jiang family. Once a war of this magnitude begins, it will be completely out of control. The entire peace-seeking civilization will be engulfed in the flames of war and fall into absolute wartime control. Many people will die."

Chen Mang looked thoughtfully at the hundreds of trains on the screen: "From this perspective, our goals are aligned."

The other side's radar is clearly not advanced enough.

In order to ensure that the train of the "Jiang Family" Chamber of Commerce is blocked, they chose to cast a wide net in this area. Presumably, this is only the first line of defense. Even if the first line of defense is not blocked.

When approaching the planet of reconciliation, the planet's defensive firepower will also open fire directly.

Good.

"In that case, that guy should thank me."

"I helped him solve such a big problem."

Chen Mang turned his head to look at Qiu Yisao and Zhou Shen and the others beside him: "Do you two want to pick up your families? If so, we should go back as soon as possible. If there is wartime control, it will not be so convenient to come and go."

"May I?"

"of course can."

And at this time——

"."

In Sanshui City, on the top floor of an office building, seven or eight people sat at a long table, all remaining silent. After some time, an elderly man, supported by others, slowly sat down in the main seat and took out two broken life tablets from his pocket, placing them on the table.

His eyes were cloudy, and he exuded an aura of death.

He spoke slowly after a moment.

"My life tablet and Chairman Zhang's life tablet shattered at the same moment, so our goods will not be delivered."

"This operation was kept completely secret; no one except me knew Chairman Zhang's route."

"This means—"

"It wasn't pirates or anyone else who attacked them. Only the army of the peace-seeking civilization could find them near that shipping route by conducting a thorough search. This also means that the newly appointed young man has no intention of leaving us any chance of survival."

"Xiao Xinzi".

“I am here, Father,” a middle-aged man sitting at the side of the long table said respectfully as he rose.

"Get some spare parts and scraps and put them in the 'research and experimental base,' then set it on fire."

"clear."

"Everyone else, disperse. Once you're back, mobilize all available resources and prepare for the worst. This war may be unavoidable."

Every civilization has similar contradictions.

Resources must be highly concentrated in order to build sufficiently powerful trains, sufficiently powerful armies, and a more powerful civilization.

Every leader of a civilization wants to concentrate resources in their own hands.

but.
This goes against human nature; everyone below wants to eat their fill and build their own train.

This contradiction is irreconcilable; it will only escalate with the passage of time, culminating in a final battle to determine the ultimate victor.

Although the arrival was somewhat sudden, they did not expect this young leader to be so ruthless, leaving no way out from the start.

However, they did not panic.

After all, this kind of thing has happened in many civilizations, and there is too much history to study. What we need to do next is to rely on our historical background and find reasons for it.

Life card.

A unique product of the cultivation civilization.

Very useful.

The most common goods in trade between civilizations are the specialties of different civilizations. They can often be sold at a high price in a different place, but a series of costs such as "tariffs", "wormhole usage fees" and "travel energy consumption" must be paid.

One day later.

Chen Mang sat in the cabin of the Hengxing train, looking at the Sanshui City newspaper in his hand. Today's headline was—

"The research and testing base of Sanshui Feiyang Technology Co., Ltd., located in the suburbs, caught fire in the early hours of last night. When firefighters arrived, the factory was also reduced to ashes, and the estimated value of nearly 100 billion units of iron ore equipment was reduced to ashes."

"The cause of the accident is currently under investigation."

According to the company's management, the fire was likely caused by a cigarette butt carelessly discarded by an employee.

"We would like to remind the general public once again."

"If cigarette butts are never left on the ground, both parents will live long and healthy lives."

"Good."

Chen Mang chuckled and picked up the herbal tea beside him, taking a sip. This news reminded him of something familiar. Although civilization had changed, the way people settled accounts was still the same classic method.

Fire is a wonderful thing.

In most cases, it can settle all accounts.

In extreme cases, if the accounts cannot be balanced, the people who come to audit them can be balanced as well.

Then he suddenly thought of something and felt a slight headache. Qi Kexiu had told him that he didn't have enough manpower and that he needed to expand the R&D team to at least 100 people.

He asked the people at "Sanshui Feiyang Technology Co., Ltd." if they were capable. If they were, he would just go and rob them again.

The answer was no.

A bunch of slackers.

Finding these people is a real problem.

but--

We'll talk about this later. A research and development team can't be built in a short time. He also wants to see if a war can break out in the "peaceful civilization." Both of them have a lot of resources.

What if a fight really breaks out?

He might even be able to sell some weapons or something.

As for now.

The Stellar Train is already traveling through the universe, heading towards the cultivation civilization "Xuanwu Star". Both planets revolve around the star in this region and are very close, so there is no need for a wormhole; the train can go directly there.

At the train's current speed, it is expected to arrive in seven hours.

He didn't drive too fast.

After all, there are many people around, and he was driving too fast, which would be too conspicuous. There's no rush.

This galaxy is called "Galaxy 27".

It is the "Kasa Civilization," an artificial creation that brought together all the civilized planets in the vicinity of this region.

If you want to travel to other star systems.

This requires the wormhole created by the "Kasa Civilization" ahead, and a certain fee must be paid.

Everything in this world has its advantages and disadvantages.

All the Tier 1 civilizations were secretly complaining that the Kasha civilization had forcibly incorporated them, making them resist the Zerg army and restricting their development. However, from another perspective, the complete opening of trade between civilizations had also accelerated the development of each civilization considerably.

Although it is impossible to break through the upper limit.

But its overall strength has increased considerably.

This aligns with the expectations of the Kasa civilization. The Kasa civilization doesn't need these Tier 1 civilizations to defend against powerful enemies. The Kasa civilization's main strategy is to have a small population but a large number of high-end combat trains.

What the Kasa civilization needs is for these Tier 1 civilizations to resist the enormous number of Zerg monsters, so as to avoid the battle lines being too long and causing the Kasa civilization to be unable to attend to both ends.

"It's quite lively."

Chen Mang sat inside the train, looking out the window, where trains occasionally sped past.

Some trains are marked with signs indicating "Civilized Passenger Train".

Some trains are marked as sightseeing trains by XX Tourism Company.

There are also some chamber of commerce trains and a large number of private trains.

The Stellar train is inconspicuous among them; there are trains with more carriages, including some with 108 carriages.

Zhou Shen.

Chen Mang looked at the enormous train marked "Jimei Tourism Company Luxury Sightseeing Train" with some curiosity and said, "Jimei Tourism Company is quite powerful. It must have cost a lot of money to build such a train with so many carriages."

"It won't cost too much."

Zhou Shen explained from the side, "As long as the energy shield is not upgraded, it won't cost much to build the carriages. This train only travels between these planets and won't go too far; it will stay near the star."

"We won't go to those cold, starless spaces, meteorite clusters, or cosmic dust, and there's no need for combat."

"It's not expensive to build."

“Each carriage is a private compartment, with no portals. Every passenger can see the scenery outside the window. This star system has a total of 67 habitable planets, and this train has selected 27 of these civilizations to create a long-distance journey.”

"The entire process took 90 days."

“Every tourist has a luxury master suite, each suite costs 3000 million units of iron ore, and there are 8 suites in one train.”

"."

Chen Mang narrowed his eyes slightly, deep in thought.

"Excluding the locomotive, there are a total of 108 carriages. Assuming that 8 of them are used for storing supplies, that is, 100 carriages, which can have 800 suites, each costing 3000 million."

"So, you can collect 240 billion in one trip?"

"Besides the cost of the train itself, are there any other costs? What about the customer acquisition cost?"

Zhou Shen explained, "Yes, those armed trains next to us are for escort. In addition, there are customer acquisition costs. Customer acquisition costs are the highest in any industry, especially for high-net-worth clients. They are basically acquired through long-term accumulation, maintenance, and referrals."

"The higher the net worth of a client, the more likely they are to accept recommendations from friends."

"One aspect is trusting friends."

"On the one hand, it allows us to have common topics of conversation within the circle."

"The exact costs are unclear to outsiders, but the profits should be quite high. One trip should earn around 100 billion yuan. Many of the apartments are given to certain people, such as those with whom the group needs to maintain connections."

"."

Chen Mang silently gazed out the window at the train that was gradually being left behind, without saying a word.

He suddenly realized.

Back on "Blue Planet," mining was practically his only source of iron ore.

His sudden wealth after leaving the Blue Planet also came from the "mining planet".

It's the same thing: mining.

And arrived—

After the establishment of the "Kasa Civilization Federation", it has become very difficult to mine. The mines on the planets are all official and private mining is prohibited. There are no mining planets in the area surrounding the star system.

but.
There are now even more ways to earn mining stars, and people from all walks of life are making a fortune.

These people are living without the threat of an apocalypse.

They really spared no expense.

Instead of upgrading their trains, they take 3000 million units of iron ore for a trip.

He once thought that the princess of the "mechanical civilization" was a complete waste of resources, consuming so much iron ore without going to the front lines. But after seeing these people, he realized that they were the real waste.

如果
If he could get involved in all these lucrative industries, he could make a fortune, even faster than before.

When the gap between the rich and the poor is extremely wide, it is easier to make money from the rich.

He possesses unique products and considerable strength, and this method allows him to remain hidden in the background without attracting the resources of the "Kasa Civilization," secretly gathering resources to upgrade his own train.

Until!

The day the window paper was torn open.

"Jimei Travel Company"

Chen Mang murmured the name several times, silently memorizing it in his mind. He didn't plan to start from scratch in a new industry; that would be too troublesome and time-consuming. He wanted to keep things simple and straightforward.

To create an interest group headed by the Stellar.

Everyone is working to earn resources for him.

The future plan gradually became clearer. The first stop was to go to the cultivation civilization "Xuanwu Star" to see what it looked like, to open up his market there, and to make his name known!
He didn't know what level the strongest trains of the Kasha civilization and the Zerg civilization were.

But he did the math.

Having a level 500 armor piece basically guarantees you complete security.

He won't leave the mountain until his armor reaches level 500 and all his components are upgraded to level 500. Keeping his head down isn't a sign of weakness, but rather a way to build up his strength.

A few hours later.

The Stellar train entered the atmosphere of the "Black Tortoise Planet" and landed on a train dock.

While queuing to enter.

Chen Mang looked out the window at the towering buildings and neon-lit city and was somewhat surprised: "Isn't this a cultivation civilization? Why does it look like a cyber city?"

"Forehead"

Zhou Shen explained in a low voice, "It wasn't like this before, but after the trade between civilizations became too close, many things changed subtly. The current cultivation civilization may be quite different from the cultivation civilization you usually see in the stories, Master Mang."

at this time--

He noticed that an extremely long train was also slowly landing at the train dock and queuing to leave; it was the luxury train of "Jimei Travel Company".

"Good."

Tens of minutes later.

The Stellar train has already left the "train dock" and is speeding towards the nearest city in the sky. Along the way, you can see cultivators flying on their swords from time to time, looking extremely dashing.

Zhou Shen continued to introduce the topic from the side.

"Mr. Mang."

"Xuanwu Star is not unified. The strongest sects are the five major sects and the three major families. This city was jointly built by these eight forces and is strictly controlled. All cultivators entering this city will have their cultivation locked and restricted to ensure the absolute safety of travelers."

"But once you leave the city, try to stay inside the train and avoid being exposed outside."

"Although there aren't many cases of serious incidents, they do happen. Generally speaking, most visitors spend most of their time in this city, and then take sightseeing buses to other corners of Xuanwu Star to visit the interiors of various cultivation sects."

"Good."

Chen Mang sat in his chair, watching the scene before him with great interest. He liked the feeling of different civilizations colliding together, which always resulted in some messy things.

He wasn't worried about his safety.

He simply doesn't want to reveal his strength and prefers to develop in a low-key manner.

It really comes down to skill.

These nearly ten thousand Level 1 civilizations could not pose any threat to him.

"but."

He pointed to the female cultivator in red robes flying on a sword overhead: "Why is she flying back and forth?"

"Forehead"

After hesitating for a long time, Zhou Shen didn't know how to explain.

"Let me tell you."

Standing to the side, Zhang Qiudao stepped forward and explained, "The eight major powers on Xuanwu Star have joined forces to establish a cultural and tourism bureau. They want to showcase the elements of cultivation to visitors in this city as much as possible. The cultivators flying around are part of the performance."

"It will allow everyone to enter the city in a more immersive way."

"The Culture and Tourism Bureau?"

"Uh-huh."

"After all, people who are willing to take such long-distance trips are generally quite generous, and in recent years this has become one of the main sources of income for the eight major powers."
