"Cremie-class superluminal propulsion engine from Shenfeng Star Sea Engine Group!"

"Photon energy shield from the Guangyao series!"

"Hiss... Lumen tungsten alloy hull armor from the Holy Armor Group!"

"Good stuff, all good stuff!"

"These interstellar pirates are really rich!"

Xu Zi'an muttered non-stop while piloting the spaceship to look for valuable parts.

One valuable part after another was collected into the cargo hold of the Radiant.

But soon he discovered...

The space was simply not enough.

There was only a total of twenty cubic meters of space, which is equivalent to the volume of a small cargo box behind a light truck seen everywhere on the streets in the 21st century, so don't expect to carry too much stuff.

Perhaps seeing Xu Zi'an's current predicament.

In the communication, Qin Fuyue immediately said: "Me, me, me! Big shot, I'll help you load it!"

The Brilliance had been following the Radiant like a tail.

Xu Zi'an didn't think much: "Alright! Then thank you!"

"You're welcome, you're welcome, compared to you saving my life, this is nothing!"

Qin Fuyue said with her sweet voice: "Big shot, I remember there is a space relay station two light-years away.

Shall we take these things there to sell for money first? My starship cargo hold space is not much, and it's already loaded with other things."

"Okay!"

Xu Zi'an naturally wouldn't refuse.

Immediately, he continued to cut excitedly.

As for Qin Fuyue's voice suddenly becoming so sweet...

He didn't feel anything.

Anyway, he would never forget her various complaints and roars when they first met.

The image of Qin Fuyue as a fierce woman in his mind couldn't be shaken off.

At the same time.

The starships that had originally received the Federation's SOS request and came to support, upon learning that the danger here had been resolved and all the interstellar pirate starships had been wiped out.

Also didn't come over anymore.

About nearly two hours later.

Xu Zi'an determined that things slightly worth money should have been collected, and then stopped with lingering interest.

Behind...

Qin Fuyue's flawless face was full of strangeness.

Now, she could be 10,000% sure...

This mysterious big shot must be a miser.

And a super miser at that!

Look at what's in her cargo hold!

Not to mention those engines, those are indeed worth some money.

But...

Why take refrigerators that are only worth seven or eight hundred yuan brand new?

And they are used ones, at most worth one or two hundred yuan!

Piles of low-value items filled her fifty-plus cubic meter cargo hold.

If it weren't for the fact that their starships really had no room...

She even suspected that this super miser big shot could continue to stuff things worth dozens of yuan into it!

Fortunately.

It's finally over.

"Big shot, shall we go to the space relay station now?"

Qin Fuyue asked.

"Okay! Let's go!"

Xu Zi'an had no objections.

Immediately, the two set the destination on the star map to Space Relay Station YZ1881, controlled the starships to turn, and entered the pulse jump state.

Two light-years, it only takes about an hour to arrive.

An hour later.

Exited the jump state.

You can see in the empty deep space, a huge, planet-like metal sphere floating quietly there.

Preliminary estimate, at least 500 kilometers in diameter, about the same size as Enceladus in the solar system.

And this is just the smallest space relay station!

On the metal planet, there are countless doors, opening and closing from time to time, with a large number of starships entering and exiting.

Those doors are the entrances and exits for starships, used for parking starships.

Space relay stations are specifically provided for passing starships and spaceships to rest, entertain, and take missions.

Space relay stations have everything, and can even be said to be sci-fi cities floating in deep space.

Eating, drinking, playing, having fun.

Purchasing, repairing, evolving starships and spaceships, etc., can all be completed here.

In short...

Space relay stations are no different from normal planet cities!

There are countless such space relay stations in the universe.

Basically, as long as it is a slightly remote deep space, there will be such space relay stations.

If you have to use a metaphor...

Space relay stations are equivalent to the commercial plazas of the 21st century Earth!

Like Wanda Plaza.

Then countless merchants move in, and there is everything inside!

Even...

There are many starship captains who like to live in space relay stations, and don't like those planet cities.

They feel that life in the space relay station is much more comfortable.

And the space relay station is also the first time Xu Zi'an has seen it, and the first time he has come.

After all, although the space relay station has everything...

Even apartments and houses are all available.

But... consumption is also much more expensive than ordinary planet cities.

Xu Zi'an doesn't have that money.

Now, his heart is undoubtedly full of curiosity.

First time is the first time.

But the rules are still understood.

When only 100 kilometers away from the space relay station, Xu Zi'an began to call the relay station's air traffic control.

Otherwise, if you approach at will without calling air traffic control, after a few warnings...

You will be shot down by the relay station's air defense system.

At that time, you won't even have a place to cry, and the Federation won't even stand up for you.

"Hello, Radiant, welcome to the Space Relay Station YZ1881 of the Free Route Group, I wish you the most pleasant experience here!"

"The parking area for your starship has been planned, and the navigation information has been sent to your optical brain. Please proceed to dock according to the navigation information."

The gentle woman's voice was very pleasant, making people feel much more relaxed.

Soon, a route guided Xu Zi'an's course, and his starship parking location was parking bay G39.

"Big shot, my starship is in parking bay G55... how do we contact later? Can you give me your private communication number?"

In the communicator, Qin Fuyue's voice came.

Xu Zi'an sent his communicator number over, and soon Qin Fuyue added him as a friend.

Xu Zi'an also passed it casually: "I'm G39, let's contact later."

"Mm-hmm! I'll sell those things and then come find you!"

"Okay!"

Xu Zi'an had no opinion.

Piloting the Radiant, he slowly drove into the parking bay that had already opened its hatch.

Inside.

Brightly lit.
