Merchants refer to a general term for a group of people who engage in commodity trading, goods exchange and transportation, so that commercial goods can be widely flowed and gained benefits from it.

There are interests there, and there are merchants there.

Interstellar merchants are not too big for traditional merchants, and they are also a group of creatures who pursue interests.

The goods sold by interstellar merchants are all inclusive, including agricultural products, industrial products, knowledge-based, cultural and entertainment products. Whether it is physiological or spiritual needs, they can meet you.

As long as you have a "currency" that can be traded.

However, interstellar businessmen are somewhat different from traditional businessmen.

Interstellar merchants conduct goods transactions with a wider range, more varieties, longer distances, and most of them are bartered.

The Galaxy is too big, with countless civilizations, and it is impossible to achieve monetary unification. Most currencies are financial products, with only circulation attributes, rather than their actual value - unless there is a strong civilization that can provide credit guarantees for this currency.

Therefore, for the sake of insurance, bartering is the most common way of trading for most interstellar merchants.

Of course, in free trade stars like the Thousand Stars City, the official currency "Star Coins" has a very huge effect. At least most interstellar merchants' goods accept "Star Coins" and buy them at a suitable price.

Naturally, the issuance of "Star Coins" will bring huge benefits to the official city of Thousand Stars every year.

So, for interstellar merchants, what goods are more valuable?

There are mainly four categories.

One, knowledge and technical information.

There is no doubt that information, especially technical information, will always be the most popular goods for interstellar merchants.

Just imagine for those first-level, second-level and third-level civilizations that are in the technical bottleneck period, if the technical bombs in the hands of interstellar merchants can help them to civilization and achieve level improvement and breakthroughs, how much is these technical bombs and civilizations willing to buy them?

It is bound to be a big deal, and you have to buy everything you have in your pocket.

Moreover, the storage medium of technical data is small in size, light in weight, easy to carry, and can be sold unlimitedly. Once successfully traded, the return rate is extremely high, so it is the goods that interstellar merchants love to trade.

However, higher civilizations do not want civilizations of the same level of science and technology to increase in number, threatening their own status. Therefore, they jointly formulate the "Technical Anti-Proliferation Convention" to strictly limit the flow of technical data to low-level civilizations and crack down on the transaction of sensitive technical data.

In particular, groups like technology businessmen are under the key monitoring of these civilizations.

Two, energy.

Before the perpetual motion machine was invented, the energy industry was a permanent industry, from the "firewood" of ancient civilizations, the "coal" of modern civilizations, and "oil" of modern civilizations, to the "nuclear fuel" of the interstellar era, and "energy blocks"... The energy industry, like human food, has constant demand.

Three, food, minerals, mechanical and electrical equipment, arms and weapons, spacecraft and other "tangible" commodities.

Four, culture, film and television, games, art and other "invisible" spiritual commodities.

These four categories contain everything a civilization needs.

Yun Xinghe, who planned to switch from "explorer" to become a "interstellar businessman" for a while, first of all, the industry that he focused on was of course the energy industry.

Generally speaking, the higher the energy density, the higher the value.

For low energy density, such as common hydrogen elements, are distributed everywhere in the universe, not only with high energy density, but also with large volume. Freight spacecraft powered by this type of energy is a bit like a train in the steam era, where half of the car is loaded and half of the coal is loaded.

The civilizations around the Thousand Stars City are mostly second-level civilizations and fewer third-level civilizations, so the Zerg energy core, which is equivalent to the level 2 energy block, is very popular among these civilizations.

So Yun Xinghe and others saw on the dynamic price panel of the Thousand Stars City Energy Trading Market: 1 standard volume of third-level energy block can be sold for 190 star coins per piece.

To be honest, Yun Xinghe thinks this price is a bit low. You should know that a third-level energy core, the size of a palm, contains enough energy to meet the annual electricity demand of a first-level civilization of tens of billions of people. However, he could only exchange 11 crew members of the Feitian (except for the three-eyed person who does not eat or drink), and spending two or three days living in the Thousand Stars City.

This shows how high the prices here are.

Outside the Thousand Stars City, the thousands of second-class spacecraft floating around, we can know that these spacecraft must be unable to withstand the high daily expenses and have to choose to stay outside the well-equipped spaceport.

But I can't eat a fat man in one bite. Although the price of the third-level energy core is not as high as expected, it is certain that I make a big profit in the end with the amount carried by the Feitian number.

Make up your mind and then take action separately.

First, rent a warehouse for storing goods in the spaceport, take down the two large containers hanging under the belly of the Feitian Crown, and store them properly.

Yun Xinghe personally took Gu Fan and Du Xiaopang to find the Xing Government, and used the two container energy cores as collateral to easily get a low-interest loan of 100,000 star coins. Then, at the price of 24 hours/100 star coins, he rented the warehouse and put the container in.

The warehouse is available.

The second is to set up a company.

Regarding "company", different civilizations have different civilizations. Some are called "chamber of commerce", some are called "store stores", and some are called "travel merchants"... But the essence is the same, they are all commercial institutions that buy low and sell high.

So Lan Xiulong took Sugaru and Berekov to the Xingcheng Ministry of Industry and Commerce, and spent 1,000 star coins to register a "company".

The company name - Feitian Trading Co., Ltd., was lazy and used the name of the spacecraft.

So, the company also exists.

In the bustling city center, I rented a 180-square-meter office office for a price of 500 star coins per week. As the office location, Feitian Trading Co., Ltd. can basically carry out company business.

As for the business, Luo Xin is led by Yun Qiaoqiao, Xianglan Mikoto, and Aika Uehara. The business model is also very simple. Luo Xin is responsible for finding channels and advertising. Yun Qiaoqiao and the other three women only need to sit in the office, Dangdang customer service, and answer the phone.

Once a customer becomes interested in the goods and wants to see the goods, the product consultant Xia Xingkong will take the customer over, or check the quality of the "goods" to make the customers feel at ease and satisfied.

After such a whole arrangement, a trading company with a small number of people but complete organs was established in just two days.

The business was launched immediately.

Inside the company conference room.

Yunxinghedao: "Luo Xin, I will give you all the remaining 80,000 star coins. I will place more advertisements on the open-air advertising platform, online platform, and trading market to create a reputation as a company, attract customers' attention, and strive to sell most of the energy cores in a short period of time."

"Yes, Captain."

...

In the following days.

In the trade circle and interstellar businessmen in the Thousand Stars City, a newly emerged "Fei Tian Trading Co., Ltd." has attracted the attention of many businessmen with a keen sense of business opportunities.

There were some discussion voices in every corner of Star City.

"I heard that this new trading company mainly operates Zerg energy cores. In the trading market, the amount they can supply is more than 1 million, all of which are high-grade energy cores."

"1 million? There are so many? How did they get it? It's probably necessary to wipe out the Zergs on a planet to get so many energy cores, right?"

"This is actually not too much. More than a dozen passing third-class civilized spacecraft can be bought. Exaggeratedly, their tone is, "How much do you want and how much you supply, don't worry about our lack of goods. Let's see if the star coins in your hands are enough. Isn't this ridiculing us for not having enough money? We interstellar merchants have private galaxies and private planets everywhere. How dare they question whether there are not enough star coins in our hands? I really can't stand it!"

A fat interstellar businessman with various valuable beads on his body said dissatisfied.

"I sent someone to inquire. The founder of this company was the first time I came to the Thousand Stars City some time ago. There was only one small and medium-sized spacecraft, but he dared to say that... a typical arrogant and arrogant person, and he had never seen the world!"

"I feel that they only have 1 million energy cores at most, and if they exceed this number, they can't get it."

"Energy accounting is a cargo with relatively high value. You should know that an advanced third-class civilized spacecraft costs only 30 million star coins."

"This type of energy core generally has only two uses, one is used for the core power energy of high-speed spacecraft, and the other is a battery used as a high-power ship-based weapon... But in peacetime, there is not much demand for this type of energy core."

"I think we use a lot. At least we interstellar merchants, most of the spaceships use energy cores... Time is money, whoever runs the fastest will earn more money."

"I plan to go to that company tomorrow. If there are so many energy cores, I plan to buy a batch. The Green Immortal Civilization is preparing for a war against the Zerg and regaining more than a dozen border-leading stars and third-level energy cores that have fallen over the years. They need a lot of them."

"So, I plan to buy a batch..."
