From The Start, I Traded A Galactic Warship - Chapter 8

Chapter 8: The Noble Sir

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Shen Shi remained silent.

To be honest, he was also indescribably shocked.

The value of present information was shockingly high in the future 3,000 years later.

Even though the antique collector in front of him had a stronger fondness for antiques, it was still a little too exaggerated.

The collector still did not stop talking.

“That was one of the most famous movies in the short history of the Earth Star Era! It displayed the ancestors’ yearning for technology and the universe when they were in the Earth Star Era! I had the honor of seeing the fragments, and I could not help but be deeply shocked by the astonishing imagination of the ancestors.” The emotions he had transmitted turned into deep intoxication. “Although I have never seen the Spring Embroidered Saber, I have also heard of it. It is a story played by the ancestors of an era more distant than the end of the Earth Star Era. Every frame, every word, is a priceless treasure to humans!”

Shen Shi… still found it difficult to understand.

He felt that this fanaticism had surpassed the pursuit of antiques by present people.

Was history really so important?

Could the significance of the Time Diamond’s crossing of 3,000 years be for history?

But no matter what.

The greater the value of history, the more beneficial it was to him!

“Let’s talk about the deal.” Shen Shi changed the topic back to the deal. “Is there really no better one?”

“Dear Sir.” The collector seemed to be in a difficult position. “You should know our current situation. If it had been in the past, we might have had a chance, but now, no civilization in the territory of the Rancher would dare to sell the migration warships to us.”

“…” Shen Yi did not reply.

Rancher? Current situation?

There was too much unknown information in this sentence. If he were to answer carelessly, it would reveal that he knew nothing about the future.

His silence seemed to have been mistaken by the collector for some kind of displeasure.

The collector looked at the silver USB drive again and at the four movies projected from it. He gritted his teeth and said, “Dear Sir, are you planning to flee? Then, I’ll also give you an independent information vault so that you and your family clan can develop rapidly in any star realm. This is already my greatest sincerity. At least, no one here can give a deal more valuable than mine.”

Flee? An independent information vault?

Shen Shi pondered the meaning behind these few words.

However, from the looks of the collector, he knew that he would not be able to ask for more.

In fact, he did not want to say anything else.

If it had not been to avoid exposing his trump card and to continue to transact in the future, he would have exchanged 40 movies for this warship, let alone four movies!

“Alright, let’s trade.” It was also a short response.

This time, the collector fell into a happy mood again!

Fortunately, this time, he did not erupt with light like before. Instead, he completed the transaction as quickly as possible. Then, he could not help but remove the restrictions on the platform. The names and contents of the four movies were completely unlocked.

And Shen Shi.

He looked at the huge “black ball” in his personal space in a daze.

Had he really obtained it? A cosmic warship with a diameter of more than a kilometer?

“Honorable Sir, what else can I do for you?”

The collector seemed to have confirmed the authenticity and completeness of the movies. He became even more respectful toward Shen Shi. This was not just reflected in the translation, but also in his actions.

He was still in a half-bent posture.

Shen Shi had planned to leave immediately, but at this moment, he was a little hesitant.

He still left a sentence. “Next time. I might look for you in the future.”

“No problem!” The collector became even more joyful and bowed gracefully again. “It is my great honor to be able to deal with a gentleman of noble status from a distant clan like you. Every friendship item you have brought is a supreme treasure. Every ancient phrase you speak is a great gift to me.”

Shen Shi looked at him deeply.

In fact, he had already realized this.

Although the platform would provide simultaneous translation and anonymity would also hide the tone of the words, the language he used could not be concealed.

The East Kingdom language was definitely ancient to the people of this era.

The evidence was the rows of * characters in the description of the warship.

Shen Shi naturally understood that those * characters did not mean that it could not be explained in the words of the East Kingdom language, but that there was no corresponding vocabulary. This was enough to show that not many people would be able to speak his “native language” in the future.

This was also the reason why the collector had addressed him as an “esteemed customer” on their first transaction.

From the collector’s attitude toward the other customer, it could be seen that there was definitely a reason for his respect for him.

Although he did not understand what the collector was thinking and what the “distant clan” meant, Shen Shi naturally would not ask.

This was because this “misunderstanding” was in his favor.

The seven-color light of anonymity concealed all of Shen Shi’s emotions and actions. In the eyes of the collector, he only remained silent for a short while before turning around and leaving the store.

Then, he exited the trading market.

His consciousness returned to his body.

The first thing that came was the strong sense of unreality brought about by the change in the environment.

Then, his subconscious reaction was to check the items in his personal space.

That huge ball was still suspended in the air, including a large pile of squirming black liquid!

It was real!

He had really used a book worth ten over yuan and a USB drive he bought for a hundred or so yuan to exchange for a large pile of omnipotent substance and a cosmic migration warship that could accommodate tens of thousands of people!

No! He could not be too excited!

Shen Shi’s face turned red. He clenched his fists tightly and used all his strength to control his urge to shout.

No matter how calm he usually was, he only understood how difficult it was to control his emotions when he encountered something big.

Then, he gently raised his hand.

A large ball of black, sticky, oil-like liquid appeared on the floor of the room.

It squirmed slowly.

It was the simulation transformation substance!

Shen Shi did not take out too much. He only took out 50 kilograms. However, in a standby state, it was enough to cover the floor of the entire room.

This type of simulation transformation substance was controlled by a program installed on the personal terminal.

In the future world, the so-called personal terminal would be a necessary and universal tool like the mobile phone and computer of modern people.

It included various forms.

There were optical computers external to one’s body, chips implanted in one’s body, and even terminals located in a special space that could be controlled by consciousness.

Even a cosmic warship could be controlled remotely with one’s consciousness through a personal terminal.

It was obvious that the black market trading terminal which had come to Shen Shi’s side with Time Diamond was a personal terminal, and one that was very advanced. It had already been bound to him.
