Chapter 868: Chapter 753 New Special Category Goods
𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓾𝒷.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Last time’s achievement tasks.
It took Tang Qing nearly nine months, almost half a year, to complete.
These new achievement tasks, Tang Qing thought to himself, might take one or two years to deal with?
Indeed, if these tasks were completed, the Asia Dollar would definitely have started to exert some initial influence globally. This was not something that could be achieved in a short period of time, as the current influence of the Asia Dollar was still far from enough.
But it didn’t matter.
It was all a matter of time.
No longer focusing on these tasks.
Tang Qing turned his attention to the other functionalities of the system.
With a flash, he entered the Command Room.
Tang Qing immediately pulled up the robot exchange list and found no changes; it was still the same five types of robots: Fighter, intelligence analyst, Spy Robots, Scientist, and Commander.
Turning his gaze, he looked at the general merchandise in the mall.
The new items that appeared in there brought a smile to Tang Qing’s face.
Airplanes.
Finally, there were things capable of carrying people flying.
In the mall, various helicopters had appeared.
Civilian ones.
Military ones.
Special purpose ones such as firefighting, meteorology, transportation, etc. were all available, including even the latest Apache helicopter from the American Boeing Company, though it was a bit pricey at 32 million RMB.
But when he checked,
The internal procurement price of the American military’s Apache helicopters was more than 20 million USD, up to 30 million USD, while the export price was between 50 million and 80 million USD per unit; Tang Qing felt instantly balanced when comparing the prices.
Moreover, the price tag of 32 million RMB included a full load of weapons and a base amount of ammunition, which was more than just a bargain—it was akin to getting ten for the price of one.
Tang Qing simply adored the cost calculation method of the system’s mall items.
It didn’t matter how much money Boeing spent on research and development.
It didn’t matter how much time it took.
The system would simply calculate the price based on the material cost, plus a certain percentage of technology weight, and directly set the price. Tang Qing felt a bit excited, thinking about buying one later to take it out for a spin in the large Training Area, setting up some targets.
With the ammunition that came as a bonus.
How could he not take advantage of it? He decided to enjoy himself first.
The only thing disappointing Tang Qing was the absence of combat jets, but it didn’t matter; even if they were available, it seems he wouldn’t have much use for them, as he already had that model of an UAV.
There was no adversary in need of a large-scale battle; his current arsenal was already more than enough.
The civilian ones were easy to handle.
As for helicopters with weapons, Tang Qing wasn’t planning to bring them out to avoid excessively challenging Lang Cai’s nerves, yet corresponding autonomous research had to be put on the agenda, waiting for the right time to introduce them.
These weapons, especially equipment like the Apache, were all registered by countries, and it would be a big trouble to bring them out; better to develop his own model, which would give him peace of mind when using.
As for foreign helicopters like the Apache... using them to frame, set up, or shift blame onto others was a good choice.
Beyond that were the naval vessels.
There were some armed speedboats and other small warships.
Completely useless, they were just for river patrolling.
The Mekong River within the Myanmar region was under the management of the Myanmar Economic Zone; across the river was Laos. Now that the Myanmar Economic Zone had a complete management system, the Myanmar section of the Mekong naturally had a border management department.
Previously, they had only used small boats and speedboats.
Now with these vessels.
They could also defend against the smuggling of forces from across Laos. After all, the opium growers on this side in Myanmar were mostly gone. Tang Qing had no jurisdiction over Thailand and Laos, but he couldn’t allow those people to infiltrate at will.
During this period, quite a few people were caught and sent back.
With these vessels.
They could provide a deterrent to the guys on the other side.
Overall, their utility was quite limited.
Tang Qing then shifted his gaze to the ’Easter eggs section’.
Special category items.
Opening the icon.
In an instant, three new items appeared inside; the previous three special items had disappeared.
1. Exotic Plane Space Storage Terminal.
Price: One billion RMB, quantity available for purchase 0/1. Function: Connects to an exotic plane, initially provides a stable space of one thousand cubic meters, allows free placement and retrieval of items, expandable, with the ’permanent usage rights’ for each cubic meter priced at one million RMB.
2. Large Kinetic Weapon Protection System.
Price: Three billion RMB, quantity available for purchase 0/1. Function: Builds a hemispherical kinetic weapons protective shield over a one-kilometer radius area, intercepting objects traveling faster than two hundred meters per second, with a defense capability of fifteen modules, comes with a controlled nuclear fusion battery, capable of automatic charging, see the manual for specific parameters.
3. Harmless Filtration, Dissolution, and Recycling Integration Solution for Solid Waste.
Price: Ten billion RMB, quantity available for purchase 0/1. Function: Dissolves and recycles non-biodegradable solid waste, producing toxic-free raw materials for reuse.
Tang Qing finished looking at the three special class products.
He rubbed his face.
Sighing deeply.
The system’s appetite was becoming increasingly larger.
In one fell swoop, it planned to swallow up fourteen billion of his RMB, and yet, he found himself obliged to pay this money, which was quite troubling.
The first was the spatial device he had been dreaming of for over a year. Since the activation of the Comprehensive Service Center and the Combat Dispatch Center, Tang Qing had constantly nagged the system about the vast space of the Combat Dispatch Center it possessed.
Yet, as its host, he was charged, and quite expensively at that, based on the volume of the items he wanted to store.
Now,
Something similar to a spatial device finally fulfilled his dream.
He would no longer have to enter the Command Room and worry about bringing sunflower seed shells back to Earth. Remembering how he always had to come back to throw away the trash made him feel as if the system was skimming off his benefits.
The second protective system was also a must-buy for Tang Qing. It could be used in crucial areas of the Myanmar Economic Zone. Should someone become desperate, it would come in handy and he believed that there was an even more important place that needed it.
As for the third,
Tang Qing was even less likely to give it up.
This was an investment of ten billion with the potential to earn him tens of trillions, if not more, of RMB within ten years. He didn’t plan to manage it himself but rather hand it over to Myanmar Bank.
Such immense interests represented fierce conflicts behind the scenes.
There were too many interested parties.
He wasn’t interested in inviting trouble.
It was better to let Myanmar Bank take the lead while he sat back and enjoyed the show, especially since the political implications of this technology and the demining services provided by the Myanmar Military Services Company were exactly what the Asia Dollar needed.
The demining services were now continuously making a difference in countries under threat, clearing minefields and receiving warm welcome and gratitude from the local people and governments, often leading to communal acts of kneeling in thanks.
If those commissions were completed,
Tang Qing would soon be able to secure bank licenses in those countries and complete his branch tasks.
The technology would only realize its full potential in the hands of Myanmar Bank.
After some thought,
Tang Qing directly purchased the first product.
One billion RMB just like that, gone.
With a thought,
He retrieved the terminal.
Tang Qing was stunned.
A... small black sphere?
The Exotic Plane Space Storage Terminal was the size of a glass bead black sphere.
"System, what’s going on? How do I use this thing?" Tang Qing asked, perplexed; the small black sphere in his hand seemed weightless, as light as a feather, making Tang Qing wonder whether it would float away if he let go.
"Host, just like the teleportation node, the Exotic Plane Space Storage Terminal has no fixed size and can change shape at will," the system explained.
Hearing this,
Tang Qing remembered the Teleportation Node.
Indeed, it could change its appearance at will.
Ten seconds later,
Tang Qing examined the black ring on his finger adorned with silver patterns.
He smiled in satisfaction. The style of the ring was rather nice. Immediately, he tried storing and retrieving items and found the ’spatial ring’ to be very user-friendly. The only requirement was that the ring must touch the items, which combined with nerve telekinesis for use.
Tang Qing was beginning to understand why this device took so long to come out; without strong nerve telekinesis covering the items to provide the terminal with dimensions and location information,
This ring would be practically unusable.
