Chapter 390 -390 I Want Another Batch of Cosmic Battleships
Ronald Planet was a rather famous planet in the Belen Star Region, its diameter was dozens of times that of Earth. From the vastness of space, it appeared as a massive metal sphere, its civilization having developed over billions of years, reaching a third-tier advanced level.
Their forte was mechanical technology. The exquisite mechanical craftsmanship of theirs received high praise throughout the universe’s civilizations.
Large mechanical factories could be seen everywhere on Ronald Planet. For a civilization to develop, it needed a lot of funds since advanced technologies were never given freely by other civilizations. Therefore, exporting various mechanical products became their largest industry.
The largest mechanical factory on Ronald Planet was named after the planet itself. The factory at least sold flying machines, land machines, and nautical machines of a first-stage primitive civilization, and at the highest level, it accepted orders for advanced Cosmic Battleships. As long as you paid, they would make anything!
The staff of the Ronald Factory continued to operate as usual. Even though their business was quite extensive, they didn’t often receive large orders, most of which came from first-tier and second-tier civilizations.
The Cosmic Federation was mostly in a state of overall peace with occasional localized conflicts. The majority of civilizations purchased these war machines just to resist external invasions, so the volume of orders for these war machines wasn’t huge. Only certain tools and mechanical products had larger order quantities.
Hughes Peter was just an ordinary salesman at the Ronald Factory, specifically responsible for receiving all sorts of orders and instructing the factory to produce and deliver. He was just unlucky, as his department was in charge of war machines.
For three months, the largest order he had received was just for one Cosmic Battleship of a second-stage primitive civilization, with a price of less than ten million cosmic coins, and their commission was pitiful, essentially earning only the basic salary for three consecutive months.
“Worker ID 10086, you have received a new order from the Space-Time Store, please process it as soon as possible.”
“An order from the Space-Time Store?” Hughes Peter was unusually alert. It had been a long time since he had heard such a delightful voice. His family solely relied on his meager income. Without commissions from orders, he was almost considering a career change.

However, he wasn’t a cultivator and didn’t have much money to modify his body mechanically, so he could only do such mundane work on his planet.
“Wait, Space-Time Store?!” Hughes Peter confirmed that he had not misheard.
The orders he usually received were the most basic ones, but an order from the Space-Time Store was quite different.
The Space-Time Store had appeared in the cosmic civilization only a few thousand years ago, its earliest inventor reportedly being a human from a first-tier civilization that had not yet joined the Cosmic Alliance. After generations of optimization, it finally came into formal use.
Yet, not everyone could use such a Space-Time Store. The equipment was extremely complex and generally only affordable by the universe’s nobility, because the Space Stone used at the core of the Space-Time Store needed to be a certain size to withstand such long-distance transactions.
And such large Space Stones were extremely rare, with prices not even lower than a small star system. Thus, those who could use this Space-Time Store were either rich or noble.
“Hello, esteemed customer, this is Ronald Factory of the Ronald Civilization, Worker ID 10086 at your service.” Hughes Peter quickly adopted a highly respectful attitude, not to mention the commission he could earn from this business, he absolutely couldn’t afford to offend someone using the Space-Time Store, nor could his civilization.
He glanced at the other’s information but saw nothing displayed. Transactions in the Cosmic Federation required real-name authentication, unless the person’s region wasn’t part of the Cosmic Federation.
But how was that possible? Civilizations not part of the Cosmic Federation were generally low-level. How could such a person afford the Space-Time Store?
“Could it have been found by chance?” Hughes Peter speculated, as this phenomenon had appeared in other civilizations. But even if one did find it by chance, they wouldn’t have a penny to buy anything.
Thinking of this, Hughes Peter became quite disappointed. Such primitive civilization people possessing cosmic coins was rare, to begin with, hoping to earn a commission from this was almost a pipe dream.
“Whoa, what is this creature?” Fang Jueyu saw the creature on the screen. Although it had some human features, many parts were replaced with mechanical components, and it was covered with various pipes, looking like a scientific freak.
“Host, this is a human from the Ronald Civilization,” Xiaoyi had information on all civilizations affiliated with the Cosmic Alliance here. “They developed a mechanical civilization, and their cultivation practice wasn’t prevalent, but to pursue stronger physiques and longevity, they replaced their organs with machines.”
“Yikes, having to modify myself like that, I’d rather die early,” Fang Jueyu remarked internally with a hint of disdain.
“Host, don’t you still need a batch of high-end equipment to deal with potential wormhole appearances in a few years? In such a scenario, warships of a third-stage advanced civilization would suffice, but these things aren’t typically in stock and need to be custom-ordered. You can pre-order now, and then pick up directly!”
“Makes sense!” Fang Jueyu’s Space-Time Store could be activated for only an hour each time. If the items weren’t in stock, there was no time for transmission, and if low-level mistakes happened then, it’d be disastrous.
“Hello, I need a batch of UC001 model Mobile Soldiers,” Fang Jueyu spoke in universal cosmic language.
Hughes Peter was even more astonished. How could this human’s civilization not join the Cosmic Federation yet speak the universal cosmic language? Could it be a space explorer?
Thinking of this, he discarded his initial dismissive attitude, realizing this person might merely be exploring near a barren civilization.
But the request was strange; the price per unit for the UC001 model Mobile Soldier was only 100,000 cosmic coins, significantly higher than other incomes, but due to the high product price, the commission was low. If the total was 100,000 cosmic coins, getting even 1 cosmic coin in commission would be considerable.
“I need a hundred units of this model, all with the highest specifications.”
“Alright, sir, 100 units of top-equipped UC001 model Mobile Soldiers, our factory has a large stock available and can ship directly through the Space-Time Store. Total price: 10 million cosmic coins, with a discount to 9.8 million cosmic coins. How would you like to pay?”
At 9.8 million cosmic coins, Hughes Peter could earn a commission of 98 cosmic coins, which was excellent given his months of zero commission earnings.
“I wasn’t done speaking, I also need one EXA-07 model Mobile Soldier, with the highest specification.”
This model of Mobile Soldier is the main battle force of a second-tier primitive civilization, possessing greater mobility than those mass-produced types and having free flying capability within the atmosphere. Surely, such a unit would need a commanding unit, and he already had someone in mind for the pilot!
The price of an EXA-07 model Mobile Soldier was tens of times higher, reaching 5 million cosmic coins. But, frankly speaking, it was still a small order, and Hughes Peter couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed.
“Sir, do you need anything else?”
“Yes, can you make advanced Cosmic Battleships?”
“Si… Sir… You want Cosmic Battleships?” Hughes Peter’s voice trembled slightly, since the cheapest Cosmic Battleships cost over a billion cosmic coins!
“Alright, give me a batch of those as well!”
