False Court
Chapter 1193 A Visit
Augustus was in a great mood as he took Su Mo to make the purchases.
"Okay."
Su Mo and Augustus headed toward the pharmacy.
The pharmacy looked quite large, and the decorations were nice; it should be a relatively strong business.
At this time, a spirited old man came up to greet them.
"Are you two here to buy medicine?"
"Yes, we need to purchase a batch of drugs."
Augustus nodded in response.
"Alright, this is our store's list of medicines for sale and their prices. Take a look first, and then we'll talk."
The old man handed over a list directly.
Su Mo also found it interesting; they hadn't even said what they wanted to buy, and he already handed over a price list.
However, Su Mo quickly lost his smile. He looked at the price list and his head began to ache.
Augustus's face was even darker than a stormy cloud, and he asked, suppressing his anger.
"Boss, aren't your prices wrong? This is too expensive, isn't it? It's at least three times more expensive than purchasing in Star Ring City."
"This gentleman, you must understand that this is the front line. These things are just that expensive here."
"Alright, even if that's the case, then why are there restrictions on the amount you can purchase, and you have to wait if you exceed the amount? And the price even goes up? Shouldn't it be cheaper the more you buy?"
Augustus said angrily.
"I'm sorry, this is the store's policy. Why don't you go check out another store?"
The old man replied with a smile, with no intention of yielding.
Su Mo and Augustus exchanged glances, then left the store to check out another one.
Several hours later, Su Mo and Augustus walked out of a store with dark faces.
"This is a big problem. The prices are so expensive, and there are quantity restrictions, and the delivery time can't even be guaranteed."
Augustus was also a little anxious.
Su Mo pondered for a while, then said to Augustus, "Lord Augustus, don't worry about this. I might have a feasible solution."
"What solution?"
Augustus asked quickly.
"Come with me, we're going to see someone."
Su Mo then led Augustus toward the starport.
Black and White Border Fortress.
In a luxurious room, Nan Qi was lounging in a chair in loose pajamas.
Two identical, very lovely twin beauties, one was massaging her shoulders, occasionally picking up a bunch of grapes to feed him.
One was gently hammering Commander Nan Qi's feet.
He was enjoying it very much, humming a little tune.
At this moment, AI Black and White Apostle emerged and reported to Commander Nan Qi.
"You have a new visitor."
"Who is it? Didn't I say I wasn't seeing anyone today?"
Commander Nan Qi replied with some displeasure.
"It's someone on your whitelist, the visitor is Colonel Su Mo."
AI Black and White Apostle reported.
Nan Qi immediately sat up, a look of surprise on his face. This kid actually ran to the front line and came to find him?
At this time, the two twin girls looked at Commander Nan Qi in confusion.
"Lord?"
"Go down, go down."
Commander Nan Qi waved his hand, telling them to go down.
On the other side, Su Mo and Augustus arrived at the Black and White Border Fortress's hangar on the Xunfeng (Swift Wind) ship.
On the way here, Su Mo had applied to see Commander Nan Qi with his wrist device, and the application went through unusually smoothly.
Augustus looked at Su Mo in astonishment. "Su Mo, who are we here to see? This is the headquarters of the Fifth Legion of Star Ring City."
He had been stationed on the front line for some time, so he was very clear about the distribution of power here.
Currently, there were two regular Star Ring City forces stationed on the front line, one was the Second Legion, and the other was the Fifth Legion.
These two legions were usually very arrogant and basically ignored everyone.
In particular, the Fifth Legion, which was responsible for guarding and managing the stargate, was the envy of everyone, and countless people were trying to find ways to get into the Black and White Fortress to get close to people, but they had no chance.
He didn't expect Su Mo to just bring him in like this.
"You'll find out in a moment, let's get off the ship first."
Su Mo kept him in suspense.
"Okay."
Augustus nodded.
Then the two of them got off the ship, only to see Commander Nan Qi standing there with a smile.
"Oh, my brother!"
Saying that, Commander Nan Qi stepped forward and hugged Su Mo.
Su Mo smiled and stepped forward, returning the hug.
Augustus froze in place, rubbing his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things. The middle-aged man hugging Su Mo was wearing a commander's uniform.
Could this be Commander Nan Qi, the commander of the Fifth Legion?
"Haha, you didn't even tell me you were coming, so I could prepare for you."
Nan Qi said to Su Mo with a complaining tone.
"Hey, what need is there between the two of us? Besides, if anyone should be expressing it, it should be me. If it weren't for you asking Lord Goli to intervene, how could I have been transferred so smoothly?"
Su Mo said with a half-smile.
When Nan Qi heard this, the smile on his face froze, his eyes darted around, and he thought to himself.
"Transferred so smoothly? How is that possible? This kid even deliberately mentioned Goli, it seems that things have been exposed."
Thinking of this, Nan Qi immediately laughed it off to Su Mo, "Haha, let's not talk about those things, they're all small matters. What are you here for this time, brother?"
Su Mo knew from Nan Qi's reaction that this guy had definitely realized something. But that was the effect he wanted, otherwise, he would be embarrassed to open his mouth about what was coming next.
"Let me introduce you, this is Lord Augustus of the Federation."
Su Mo said with a smile.
"Oh, Augustus, hello!"
Nan Qi smiled and extended his hand to Augustus, of course, this was out of consideration for Su Mo. He had seen Augustus from the beginning, but had no intention of greeting him.
"Hello, Lord Nan Qi."
Augustus was also flattered and replied excitedly.
Don't look at how high his status seems to be in the Federation, but that identity is completely useless in the Star Ring City official system.
You should know that when Arlais wanted to intercede for Su Mo's imprisonment, even those small officials dared to give him the cold shoulder, let alone Commander Nan Qi.
Su Mo then pulled up an electronic list and said to Nan Qi.
"It's like this, we need to purchase a batch of supplies, but the merchants here are too expensive, so I came to you."
"Oh, is that so? Let me take a look."
Commander Nan Qi then looked at the supply purchase list.
Augustus stared nervously at Nan Qi, fearing that he would be unwilling to help.
After a long while, Nan Qi coughed and said, "The supplies you want are all bestsellers. I've estimated that it will cost about 50 billion."
"Can you get them for me? 50 billion it is."
Su Mo said, his eyes lighting up.
