"Alright."
"Hmm? Ah?"
Bai Quan was completely caught off guard by Chen Ming’s response. He had invited him so many tis before, and Chen Ming had never agreed.
Suddenly agreeing now, and it was even Chen Ming who intentionally or unintentionally revealed this aning.
This made Bai Quan a bit hesitant for a mont.
Seeing this, Chen Ming added, "Didn’t I just agree with your headquarters people yesterday, saying they should bring over the chanical Race, and I would demonstrate what it becos under my control? Just to satisfy them."
"Do you believe this reason?"
Chen Ming himself knew the reason he casually made up was unreliable, so after thinking for a mont, he continued based on his current situation, "Alright, actually, I want to see your Fourteenth Legion’s technology."
"You know a lot of your technology isn’t accessible on those public academic sites."
"Recently, I’ve hit a bottleneck while learning Cruiser technology, and I want to check out your technology to get so new ideas."
"Besides, you ntioned before if I help you with the chanical Race research and produce results, I’d earn military rits."
"If I go directly to your place, it would be convenient to use the equipnt there to achieve so results."
Bai Quan imdiately caught the key point of Chen Ming’s words and said, "So you have your eyes on our equipnt?"
Chen Ming shrugged and said, "Can’t help it, I’m quite short on cash recently, and your place is a good spot to make so money."
Chen Ming’s half-true statent made Bai Quan unsure of what Chen Ming was really up to for the mont.
He could only jokingly ask, possibly in a direction where Chen Ming’s attitude might suddenly shift, "Why do you make our Fourteenth Legion sound like so shady place? Is it that your side can’t progress fast enough?"
"It’s alright, but it’s progressing so smoothly that money is flowing out like water. Why don’t you fund a bit?"
"I rember the Empire seems to have a pioneering law that can provide certain financial and technological support to pioneers."
Bai Quan quickly said, "Stop, stop, stop, that’s a law from the pioneering era, are you going to apply that now?"
"You even know that?"
"Yes, now the Empire’s law only stipulates not to restrict personal exploration and pioneering, and establishing colonies outside the Empire doesn’t require approval. What else is there? Nothing, right?"
"Seems like there’s really nothing else, so I have to figure out how to solve the money problem, right?"
"Indeed..."
Just listening to Chen Ming’s reasons didn’t sound problematic.
His many pioneering ventures were widely known, and Chen Ming’s supply circulation followed legitimate trade routes, all taxed, making investigations easy.
Otherwise, Bai Quan wouldn’t have so readily said he’d arrange a way for Chen Ming to purchase supplies at cost price.
They can roughly estimate the scale of Chen Ming’s pioneering influence based on his supply volus.
However, all of Chen Ming’s purchased supplies ultimately ended up at his boss’s colony, unified and transported by Chen Ming using Spiritual Energy.
Therefore, the final transport process couldn’t be determined.
But whether or not Chen Ming was short of money was easily observable.
And according to the recent flow of resources on the boss’s side, Chen Ming was indeed spending a lot of money, so being short of cash made sense.
After all, the supply purchasing route he arranged hadn’t been fully implented to Chen Ming yet and would take about another week.
So Chen Ming’s reason for being short of cash was entirely justifiable.
But Bai Quan still felt sothing was off, and after thinking about it, he directly opened up, "I can have you co over, but aren’t you worried about anything?"
Chen Ming countered, "Worried you’d use violent ans to keep there? That shouldn’t happen, right? Probably."
"Now many people think you’re not exactly fit to leave the Empire, so... I can’t say."
Chen Ming said again, "It’s alright, you don’t have to worry for ."
"Previously, why didn’t I go to your place? Because going to the Fourteenth Legion ans becoming soone from the Fourteenth Legion."
"But I still don’t want to directly join; the military is just too troubleso for ."
"Now it’s different, I’m a temporary military contract man; I’ve already looked at it, and this identity expires when the war ends."
"With this opportunity, I should definitely go over and take a look."
Bai Quan frowned and suddenly removed the Fourteenth Legion badge from his chest, saying to Chen Ming, "Honestly, why did you suddenly have this idea?"
"This doesn’t seem like sothing you would do; if it wasn’t you using your Spiritual Energy to talk to now, I’d even think you’re not Chen Ming."
