Star Ocean: Starting from the Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 50: Ways to Make Money

Standing in the empty dock, Chen Ming turned his head and glanced at the Iron Ore behind him.

It was completely different from the tattered look it had when I first took control of it.

The current Iron Ore is as if it is brand new from the factory. It is bright white all over, the hull armor is thick, and it looks extremely solid.

Each side is loaded with a machine gun that has obviously undergone extensive modifications, which also demonstrates the careful care of the spacecraft by the owner.

This was what Chen Ming did before entering the port. He changed the spacecraft's weapons from the electromagnetic javelin back to the original machine cannon.

After all, the mechanical race is not uncommon in the edge star field. Some people can always tell that the spacecraft is equipped with weapons of the mechanical race, and then think of the large amount of white cloud steel on the mechanical race.

The wealth should not be exposed, and Chen Ming does not want to get into trouble because of this.

I stood there and admired my achievements over the past six months.

A look of satisfaction appeared on Chen Ming's face unconsciously.

This ship is not only a reflection of its own capabilities and technology
It also accompanied him across the half-light-year journey with Xiaoshi and arrived at the pirate space station, completing his goal.

From the moment he stepped off the spacecraft, Chen Ming's previous plan was completed.

From a dangerous abandoned mining space station to a space station belonging to the human world.

Although there are some problems with this space station, and it is not on the official list of the Human Empire.

But at least there are people here, and that's enough.

For Chen Ming now, it's time to start thinking about his next plan.

The fringe star field where he currently lives is poorer than the prosperous star field within the human empire. Poverty means there are fewer people and a lower level of development.

Although because of the mechanical race, Yuhui and the ruins of the destroyed civilization, the opportunities are actually not small.

But these opportunities come with dangers.

Chen Ming is not a professional combatant, technology is what he is good at.

He wants to go to a more central location in the human empire, which should be more suitable for him.

Chen Ming's skills, talents and abilities can only be fully utilized in a place with people and cutting-edge technology.

Maybe you can start a company by yourself then?Helping people repair spaceships?

Chen Ming smiled and shook his head slightly.

His abilities are definitely not limited to this.

However, Chen Ming does not yet have a clear idea of ​​what to do specifically.

Take one step at a time and find a way to get to the prosperous star field.

When he sees with his own eyes what the prosperous star field is like, he will naturally understand what he should do.

In order to achieve such a goal, Chen Ming still has a lot to do.

The first and most important thing is to establish a formal identity.

But it definitely requires some special approaches, and money to do everything.

Chen Ming has just arrived here. He doesn't know anyone, has no way out, and doesn't know if there is any money left in the card. Even if there is money left, there is no way to use it.

It's basically the same as being penniless.

But there are far more places where money is needed.

After Chen Ming, he would have to install a hyperspace channel system on the spacecraft, which would definitely cost money.

You can't fly back slowly on the way back, otherwise Chen Ming may not have flown through several galaxies until he dies of old age.

Even if these two are done, money will still be needed to buy the supplies needed for the spaceship later.

Everything requires money, so you can only find ways to make money.

Chen Ming considers himself not a good person. Like the pirates who made trouble for him before, but he in turn devoured others, Chen Ming has no psychological burden at all.

But active piracy was something he couldn't do.

Chen Ming already has several ideas if he only relies on normal means of making money.Chen Ming stood on the horizontal elevator of the dock.

While watching the scene around him move rapidly, he considered the feasibility of several of his ideas.

The most important of these ideas is naturally to find a way to sell the two high-grade metals that I got in Ruimu Planet, as well as the batch of tobacco and alcohol.

The Baiyun Steel and Sky Steel are somewhat useful if you keep them in your hands, but Chen Ming doesn't use the tobacco and alcohol at all.

It’s just that this idea is a one-time thing and can only make a quick buck.

If selling things isn't enough, Chen Ming will have to continue to find other ways to make money.

So Chen Ming had a second idea.

Just at this time, the elevator sent Chen Ming through the gate and left the dock.

We arrived at a repair shop at the connection between the shipyard and the core area of ​​the space station.

When Chen Ming stepped off the elevator, he could see a large number of ship equipment placed in various places in the repair shop.

Many people are choosing different ship accessories to prepare for whether they will go for robbery or just travel.

Chen Ming's second idea was to find a way to become a member of the space station maintenance factory.

Although the pirate space station is nominally owned by pirates, it is definitely funded by a certain force behind it.

And a repair shop that can be opened next to the space station dock must be opened by the forces that fund the space station. It is definitely more stable and safer than any other job on the space station.

I just don’t know if they have any plans to recruit people now.

Chen Ming looked around for a few times, but did not find any managers in the maintenance shop nearby, not even a few maintenance technicians.

I don't know what's going on either.

But one thing is certain, that is, there are so many spacecrafts taking off and landing in the dock all the time.

There are definitely a large number of spaceships that need to repair damaged armor and weapons on the space station, and purchase the supplies and ammunition that the spacecraft needs.

The money that a repair shop can make is definitely not small.

And because of the pirate space station itself, it is certainly impossible for some good maintenance personnel to be willing to come to such a ungrateful and dangerous place.

The overall level of skilled workers who can work here on the space station is very likely to be neither high nor low.

As long as you can find a way to get in with your own abilities, you can make some money no matter what.

Of course, the following is just Chen Ming's guess. If the pirate space station really has enough skilled maintenance personnel, there will be no need for new people to join.

Then Chen Ming can only choose other methods.

He looked at the main door of the maintenance shop leading to the core area of ​​the space station.

The pirate space station is not just a dock and repair shop.

You can try to go to the space station to find out if there is any place that sells weapons.

The space station has its own repair shop in front of the spaceship, but weapons cannot be monopolized by the space station, right?

Find a weapons shop and rely on your own weapon modification skills, Chen Ming can still make a living.

Even if it doesn't work, Chen Ming still has the last choice.

Drive an iron ore and work as a miner.

Of course, this is the most last resort, and Chen Ming will not do it until the end.

Before there was no other chance, Chen Ming still planned to try a better option.

Anyway, let’s follow the plan step by step.

Since I can't even see anyone in the maintenance shop now, I might as well go out to the space station for a walk and convert a batch of resources on hand into usable money.

With money in hand, you have confidence in your heart.
