Chapter 51 Female Soldiers' Uniforms
T2 bee queen-class heavy carrier starship, Bridge.
This was the first time Zhao Chen had boarded its Bridge, aside from when it was being constructed.
"This is much more spacious than the zero blizzard's Bridge." Zhao Chen looked around and sat directly in the Captain's chair.
Zhao Waner, the nominal Captain of the T2 Bee Queen, didn't say much, after all, this was the Starship Zhao Chen had built.
"Should we depart early? At the fastest warp speed, should we head to the Arctic Fox Star System?" Zhao Waner asked Zhao Chen.
"Yes, this time we don't need to wait for the zero blizzard. We'll depart first, then rendezvous at the Arctic Fox Starport." Zhao Chen said, "Did you bring everything I told you to?"
Zhao Waner replied, "All the supplies, totaling 700,000 star coins, that were confiscated from the nobles are already in the T2 Bee Queen's storage compartment.
As for the Starship wreckage from the Three-Clawed Serpent Interstellar Pirate Fleet, the zero blizzard is responsible for transporting it to the Arctic Fox Star System."
Zhao Chen nodded in satisfaction; these were all funds for building Starships.
"I didn't expect you to really let the Jiang family go." Zhao Waner looked at Zhao Chen with some surprise.
Zhao Chen smiled and said, "Otherwise? Slaughter the Jiang family too? According to Jiang Hong's intelligence, although the Jiang family knew about the Bao Family and Cui Family's plans, they were always just bystanders and didn't participate.
I needed to establish my authority when taking control of the Xiaolong Star System, so I eliminated the Bao Family, Cui Family, and other families.
But no one wants a lord who is wantonly bloodthirsty without reason; killing too many would be more detrimental than beneficial.
Therefore, I didn't touch the Jiang family.
However, I did make them get out of my territory."
Zhao Waner nodded in understanding. She had initially thought Zhao Chen might use this opportunity to deal with Jiang Shasha's family.
But surprisingly, Zhao Chen never mentioned Jiang Shasha's name from beginning to end.
"Prepare to depart." Zhao Chen stepped into the hibernation pod early.
The T2 Bee Queen's hibernation pod was much better than the zero blizzard's; it was aesthetically pleasing, more comfortable to lie in, and even the injected blue liquid had a faint fragrance.
Gradually... Zhao Chen began to fall into a deep sleep.
The T2 Bee Queen then entered warp speed, preparing to cross interstellar boundary space and head to the Arctic Fox Star System.
...
Arctic Fox Starport
"Hello, Mr. Zhao Chen, I am the person in charge of the Arctic Fox Starport, designated CC11. It's a great honor to serve you again." The woman smiled and greeted him from the video window.
"Arrange another Starship workshop like the previous one for me, temporarily for two months.
Additionally, I will give you a raw material order worth two million star coins; please help me procure the raw materials and supplies on it as quickly as possible!
Finally, book me a ticket to the North Starship Military Academy."
"Okay, I have already booked a large Starship workshop according to your request, the same one you used last time.
Also, the ticket to the North Starship Military Academy has been booked. It's a first-class ticket on a T2 Interstellar Cruise Ship for tomorrow afternoon. Is that alright?" The female manager asked with a smile.
"That's fine." Zhao Chen said, having
already transferred 2.1 million star coins from his account.
Originally, Zhao Chen only had 1.9 million star coins left, but with the 700,000 star coins plundered from the nobles of the Xiaolong Star System, he now had a total of 2.6 million star coins.
Even after spending 2.1 million, he still had a full 500,000 star coins remaining.
The female manager smiled broadly and said, "During your stay, if you need anything, please feel free to contact me at any time.
I am at your service 24 hours a day." Saying that, she winked, ending the video communication with a look of deep affection and reluctance.
This was her big patron!
"One ticket?" Zhao Waner looked at Zhao Chen in surprise, not knowing what Zhao Chen was planning.
The T2 Bee Queen had undergone a week of warp travel, and with its four-level warp engine, it arrived at the Arctic Fox Starport a full week earlier than the zero blizzard.
It was precisely the last day of September!
"I still have some matters to attend to, so I won't be returning to the academy for now.
You take this flight back to the North Starship Military Academy tomorrow." Zhao Chen said.
"What could be more important than studying at the academy? Aren't you worried about failing the final assessment!" Zhao Waner grumbled, clearly a bit unhappy that Zhao Chen wasn't returning with her.
Zhao Chen patted Zhao Waner's head: "Don't worry, your brother knows what he's doing.
I'll be back in a little over a month, or two months at most."
"Then I'll wait for you at the academy." Zhao Waner said.
The T2 Bee Queen slowly entered the Starship workshop where it was originally built. Although a T2 Bee Queen was parked, there was still enough space to park or build several more Starships.
"The raw material order hasn't arrived yet, so we have nothing to do. Let's go explore the Arctic Fox Starport. Last time I came to the Arctic Fox Starport, I was so busy building this T2 Bee Queen that I didn't get to explore it properly." Zhao Chen suggested.
After a week of hibernation, Zhao Chen also wanted to enjoy this brief 'vacation' before the busy period ahead.
"Okay!" Zhao Waner happily agreed.
Afterward, Zhao Chen called upon a squad of Half-orc female soldiers assigned to him by Charlotte. The group of seven boarded an unmanned flying car and left the Starship workshop, entering the interior of the Arctic Fox Starport.
The interior of the Arctic Fox Starport was a very large city, capable of supporting hundreds of thousands of people.
Of course, the prerequisite was that you had money!
"Speaking of which, my crew doesn't seem to have unified crew uniforms." Zhao Chen rubbed his chin, looking at the five Half-orc female soldier bodyguards accompanying him.
They were wearing nothing more than ordinary cloth clothes.
Those were given for free by the slave trader when they were first purchased.
"Perfect, you haven't bought new clothes this year either. Let's go buy some new clothes, and I'll also order a batch of crew uniforms." Zhao Chen suggested.
"I have a school uniform at the academy." Zhao Waner said.
Zhao Chen looked at the academy uniform Zhao Waner was still wearing. No one wanted to wear a school uniform all day long; in reality, it was to save money.
Zhao Chen directly pulled Zhao Waner forward: "No, I must buy you clothes today! Unless you buy ten sets, you're not allowed to go back!"
Zhao Waner's face was full of surprise.
As they were on their way, a person in a black cloak, walking with their head down, stumbled towards Zhao Chen and his group.
The Half-orc female soldier bodyguard alertly stepped directly in front of Zhao Chen.
That person bumped into the Half-orc female soldier bodyguard and then repeatedly apologized.
The voice was a hoarse female voice.
"Sorry... sorry..."
Then immediately walked away.
Zhao Chen watched the person's retreating figure until it disappeared around the corner.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Waner looked at the strange Zhao Chen. Zhao Chen said, "Nothing, let's go buy clothes."
Inside the clothing store.
Zhao Chen stared at the several outfits in front of him, his expression conflicted.
Hip-hugging uniforms, maid outfits, bunny girl outfits...
If the female crew members on his Starship all wore these uniforms...
That image was too beautiful!
"Don't even think about it. Just make them according to what I've drawn." Zhao Waner directly sketched a few clothing designs herself on the side, destroying Zhao Chen's beautiful fantasy.
Suddenly, Zhao Chen saw a familiar figure outside the store, but behind that figure were several sneaky figures.
"Wan'er, wait here. You two stay here, and you three come with me." Zhao Chen suddenly left the clothing store with three Half-orc female soldier bodyguards, disappearing into the crowd.
