Trading Cosmic Battleship From The Start-Chapter 65: The Enormous Change Ahead

"Let’s not rush into praise." Shen Shi placed one hand on the box and looked at Tao De, saying, "This should be the first time I’ve brought you technology. It can be anticipated that there will be countless times like this in the future, so it’s best to set some protocols now."

Tao De was taken aback.

But as he looked at Shen Shi, he quickly realized Shen Shi’s attitude.

Because at this moment, Shen Shi was just as he had appeared on the spaceship that day!

Calm and indifferent.

This was the working state.

Tao De seemed to have suddenly gained an understanding.

Why did Shen Shi voluntarily propose to have the company registered in the Eastern Country?

He abides by the order and rules of Blue Star, so they must also adhere to their own order and rules.

"Please speak, sir!" Tao De took a deep breath and said earnestly.

Honestly, they had considered this possibility.

They even had some proposals that might satisfy both parties.

But ultimately, whether Shen Shi would be satisfied was not up to them to decide, it was up to Shen Shi.

Especially given the current situation, Shen Shi’s will was evidently of paramount importance!

"Rest assured." Shen Shi’s tone remained calm, "I’ve already told you, such technology is commonplace in the interstellar, so I’m not planning to raise the price unreasonably, nor exploit humanity, much less am I capable of deriving any gain with the current strength of human civilization."

Upon hearing this, Tao De was indeed somewhat relieved.

This actually aligned with their views on Shen Shi’s character.

He seemed to dislike reckless sacrifice, possibly due to his father’s death while saving others, yet he still cared for others, neither cold nor selfish and greedy.

Tao De’s mind was filled with many thoughts, but he listened more intently to Shen Shi’s words.

"However, the fact that you currently can’t provide anything for me doesn’t mean you never will." Shen Shi gazed into his eyes and said slowly, "I have staked at least several hundred years of my future on Blue Star, because I am human, this is my Mother Star. But by doing so, I equally hope to grow with Blue Star’s development—not merely getting through this one crisis."

The last sentence made Tao De’s face turn solemn.

He naturally understood this point.

The interstellar crisis is not just the invasion three years from now. Suffice it to say, what he saw on the spaceship that day already revealed what the Worren Fleet, which is about to invade, turns into an Interstellar Nomadic Fleet!

Shen Shi’s interstellar background, and possibly existing "backing," were entities they could never let go of.

"We understand all of this." Tao De said softly, "Having a deeper, more intimate relationship with you, whether emotionally or in terms of interests, is our wish."

Even if they didn’t do so, other countries certainly would.

This is related to a more profound future, longer-lasting benefits.

"Now that we have reached such a consensus, it becomes simple." Shen Shi’s tone noticeably relaxed a lot, "Initiated by Star Sea Company, establish a special patent joint management agency to oversee the use and development of this knowledge and technology. First, to coordinate the distribution of interests and avoid internal conflict, and second, to prevent some dangerous technologies from spreading out."

He pats the box in front of him again.

"Although this thing is akin to a toy in the interstellar context, but if it detonates, you can imagine the results."

"Exactly!"

Tao De’s eyes brightened, he had grasped Shen Shi’s meaning.

This actually coincided with one of their proposals.

He nodded and said, "I will report on this plan immediately upon my return, but there shouldn’t be any issues!"

This is undoubtedly a plan that can satisfy all parties, even deepening the connection between Shen Shi and civilization.

"In that case, take these things back with you as well." Shen Shi removed his hand from the box and glanced at the list on the table, "I’ll try my best to collect the remaining technology."

"Alright, then I’ll leave it to you, sir."

Tao De looked at the box on the table, knowing that today’s encounter was almost at an end.

And indeed, that was the case.

After carefully placing the items back into the box, Tao De bid farewell to Shen Shi, carrying the box away. He even made a call before reaching the door, indicating he might arrange for an armed escort.

Wen Hezhi and Song Yao, too, witnessed this scene.

They were keenly aware that they had just witnessed a significant turning point in the fate of humanity. It was apparent that what Tao De learned today, plus the box he took back, would surely trigger a massive wave.

Yet such a wave was just the effortless result of this man’s mere lifting of a hand!

Bigger waves were yet to come!

Shen Shi, at this moment, sat at the dining table without speaking, seemingly contemplating.

Moments later, he looked at Wen Hezhi and Song Yao and slowly said, "You’ve all heard about the alien fleet invasion three years from now; this is currently the most important matter for our company and even for all humanity. Everything else, including the technologies just mentioned, is secondary. Therefore, the primary task for the company from now on is to establish defense structures. I can first tell you that this is an enormous project."

Wen Hezhi and Song Yao listened with utmost seriousness.

From Shen Shi’s plain description, they could feel the epic sense of the curtain being raised!

It was a transformation surpassing the reality of human civilization, fast approaching!

"Given the scale of this project, it will be impossible to conceal it from the public. The ’I’m back’ event was meant to lay the groundwork for this. Still, some preparations are required before the next step, so, Old Wen." Shen Shi suddenly called.

"Here." Wen Hezhi immediately responded.

A young and promising CEO, whose worth would exceed billions upon the company’s listing, was stirred by this call of "Old Wen."

"Get in touch with Tao De and have him find a construction crew to first clear a plot of land on Star Sea Island and then build a temporary base. I’ll send you the specifics of the scale."

"Understood." Wen Hezhi immediately responded, but hesitated for a moment before speaking again, "President Shen, I have some former subordinates with whom I’ve developed a certain rapport over the years..."

"That’s up to you." Shen Shi waved his hand indifferently, "Since we’re establishing a company, we’ll certainly have to hire people. It’s just that secrets like the alien invasion can’t be leaked in the early stages, or it might cause chaos, so the requirements for you are stricter. But there’s no need for such strict requirements for others for the time being, as long as certain things are strictly confidential."
