Chapter 311, A Profitable Investment (Part 1)
The huge "Kunlun" spaceship started slowly. All the materials and goods had been loaded and it began to fly towards Jiuzhou Star. On Jiuzhou Star, there would be a batch of Jiuzhou Star's specialty products that needed to be brought to Earth for sale, such as Jiuzhou Star's specialty giant fruits.
Inside the spaceship, Lu Yuan sat in his room, looking at the Yanhuang Star emitting the aura of life in the void outside. He was very excited. He didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to return to Earth soon.
Originally, I thought that after I immigrated to the empire, even if I could return to Earth in the future, I didn't know when it would be. But it has only been more than a year, and I can actually return to Earth, and it's still in the form of a business trip.
The "Kunlun" spaceship is really too huge. Although it is a spaceship built and operated by Fuyun Group, Fuyun Group is generally only engaged in some relatively high-end and technological industries. Especially in this kind of interstellar trade, Fuyun Group is not willing to sell local specialties.
Therefore, about half of the cabins in the spacecraft are Fuyun Group's own products, all of which are various high-tech products. The remaining half of the warehouses are open to other companies in the empire in the principle of sharing benefits.
On the one hand, this can enrich the product types of this interstellar trade, and on the other hand, it can support the empire's own trading companies, especially interstellar trading companies. As long as someone tastes the sweetness, interstellar trade will surely develop rapidly in the future, just like the asteroid mining and space industries on Earth.
The Star Express Company where Lu Yuan works was originally engaged in transportation business. Because of Lu Yuan's joining, the company has also developed asteroid mining business, which has also developed rapidly in the past year.
As soon as the news of the "Kunlun" spacecraft going to Earth for interstellar trade came out, Lu Yuan instinctively felt that it contained endless business opportunities and wealth. He came from Earth and knew very well that Earth was eager for products from the empire. Even if some things were sold casually from the empire, they could be sold in large quantities and at special prices, making a lot of money.
So after Lu Yuan discussed with Tian Kong and other shareholders, they felt that this opportunity was rare and should be seized to lay a foundation for the company's future in the field of interstellar trade.
This time, Lu Yuan's Star Express Company also rented a location and brought some specialties from Yanhuang Star, preparing to test the waters on Earth.
The warehouse on the "Kunlun" spacecraft was rented out according to volume. Because of the policy support, the price was very cheap, and it did not become very expensive because of the long distance and long time required to sail. This is why it was rented out quickly.
There are many people in the empire who think the same as Lu Yuan. Various companies of all sizes rented out the remaining general warehouse locations quickly. Some people also want to go back to Earth to visit their relatives. Anyway, it is not expensive. If they can make money, it will be better.
The Yanhuang Star outside the window gradually became smaller in the field of vision, and the void farther away was dark and dim. I don’t know how many light years away the starlight provided the only light.
"It takes more than two months to reach the earth. It's really a long journey."
Lu Yuan closed the window, sat on his bed, picked up a book and read it slowly. The room was very small, with only a small bed and a bathroom, and a few potted plants to reduce some negative emotions during the journey. Space is precious, especially when you have to bring a lot of immigrants back, so there is naturally no way to be extravagant in this regard, so it can only be like this.
The "Kunlun" spacecraft uses an anti-gravity power system. Driven by the powerful anti-gravity power system, the spacecraft accelerates very quickly and sets off towards Jiuzhou Star at a speed of several hundred kilometers per second.
After a short stay in Jiuzhou Star for a few days and taking the specialties of Jiuzhou Star, the spacecraft did not stop at all and flew directly to the space-time ocean currents connecting the solar system.
...
Two months later, in the outer space of the solar system Earth, the huge "Kunlun" spacecraft slowly docked in a large military space port. The spacecraft was so large that ordinary civilian spacecraft could no longer dock, and could only temporarily use the military space port.
Of course, the military spaceports on Earth are also very idle now, because the new space battleships have not been built at all. The lack of super-large plasma engines means that the Earth Federation cannot build large space battleships.
With the resistance of the "Kunlun" spacecraft, the entire Earth is also in turmoil, especially the capitalists in the Earth Federation. They have long been eager to obtain various products from the empire. As long as they can get the goods, they can make a lot of money by reselling them.
In the virtual world, in a specially opened chat world, figures keep flashing, and the figures of famous businessmen on Earth are revealed. Once they appear in this virtual world, they immediately look carefully with curious eyes.
This virtual world was specially created by the Empire for interstellar goods trading. After entering it, it is a bit like setting up stalls in the game. On each stall, there is detailed information about the goods. As long as you think about it, you can read the quantity, quality, model, price and other information of the products sold by the stall owner.
If you are satisfied with the information in all aspects, you can bargain with the stall owner and discuss the details of the specific transaction. Of course, if you want to see the goods, you naturally have to go to the corresponding warehouse in the "Kunlun" spacecraft in the real world to see the real objects.
With the birth of the virtual world, such a trading model has become more and more mainstream. The two parties do not need to meet in person. They can complete the transaction in the virtual world before each other. Of course, the premise is mutual trust, and there will be no difference or discrepancy in the real objects.
At this time, in the virtual world, merchants from the Earth Federation came one by one, like sharks smelling blood. In a very short time, as many as tens of thousands of people entered.
You should know that this virtual chat world has set a threshold. It is not easy to enter. At least hundreds of millions of liters of money or representatives of large trading companies are required to enter. However, in a short period of time, tens of thousands of people from the entire Earth Federation entered it.
"Selling Jiuzhou Star Fruits, all kinds of pure natural Jiuzhou Star Fruits."
"Selling private anti-gravity spaceships!"
"Virtual machines from the Yanhuang Empire, come quickly if you want them."
Signs on the stalls were also hung up. These stalls selling virtual machines and spaceships were opened by Fuyun Group. As soon as the signs came out, they instantly attracted the attention of countless people. Everyone flocked to them and began to negotiate with Fuyun Group.
Whether it is anti-gravity spaceships or virtual machines, they are very rare on Earth now. For example, virtual machines cannot be made at all because the Earth Federation does not have the biosensing technology. No new virtual machines have appeared in recent years, so the price of second-hand virtual machines has also grown wildly.
Everyone regards their virtual machines as extremely precious, and all kinds of stealing and robbing virtual machines are endless, because the price of second-hand virtual machines is too high.
So when the Empire and the Earth Federation established diplomatic relations, countless businessmen asked the Empire when to sell virtual machines again. It is conceivable how many people will be eyeing this huge cake.
"The local specialties of Yanhuang Star, giant clam pearls from the ocean of Yanhuang Star, blood ginseng from the cold snow mountain..."
Among the many stalls, Lu Yuan's stall sign was also hung up, but compared with the stall of Fuyun Group, there was naturally no way to attract so many people to flock here. Compared with Lu Yuan's this time, he only brought some specialties from Yanhuang Star, and such specialties were the most common. Many people were like Lu Yuan, who only got some local specialties from Yanhuang Star, and nothing else.
But even so, because there were too many people entering, there were more or less many people coming to ask for relevant information at each stall, and Lu Yuan was the same here.
"Sir, what is this snow ginseng?"
"How much is this giant clam pearl?"
At Lu Yuan's stall, people gathered and began to ask questions. A lot of information can be directly entered into their minds. In fact, there is no need to ask. Of course, the prices of these local specialties are unified by the people on the Empire before arriving on Earth. All products can only be sold at a certain price, and low-price competition is not allowed.
For example, this giant clam pearl is classified according to the size, color, texture, weight, etc. of the pearl. The price of Class A goods must be higher than 10,000 imperial coins. You can buy 20,000 or 30,000, but it cannot be less than 10,000. This is naturally to ensure that everyone's interests are maximized, otherwise it is easy to have low-price competition.
"Sir, this snow ginseng is a plant unique to Yanhuang Star. It looks similar to ginseng and American ginseng on Earth. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, its medicinal effect is even better. All of my snow ginsengs are collected from the high mountains above 2,000 meters above sea level in the Beiyun Snow Mountain of Yanhuang Star. They are pure natural things, and all the snow ginsengs are over 100 years old."
"In terms of price, snow ginsengs over 300 years old are sold at 1 million yuan per plant, snow ginsengs over 200 years old are sold at 800,000 yuan, and snow ginsengs over 100 years old are sold at 500,000 yuan."
Although there is information that can be automatically seen by people, Lu Yuan still has to explain to the guests.
