After a thorough check-up and treatnt, Chi Jia was summoned by Bai Zhongqi and ca to the bridge of the Sacred Falcon. It wasn't his first ti on the bridge of the Sacred Falcon, and although the battle systems were very similar to those on the Richelieu, the more complex combat functions and stronger combat power made Chi Jia's heart waver. As a pure soldier, Chi Jia wished that one day he could command such a warship.
Upon seeing Bai Zhongqi, Chi Jia still felt a bit ashad and uneasy. After saluting, he said with remorse, "Your Majesty, I have lost the Richelieu and I am willing to take full responsibility and request that my superiors punish ."
Bai Zhongqi knew that Chi Jia was a typical C country soldier. He waved his hands and said, "These words are of no use. It wasn't your decision to go to that galaxy, nor was it your mistake that caused the celestial body to strike your warship, so don't say such useless things. I called you over because there is a mission I need to assign to you."

Chi Jia took this as an opportunity to redeem himself and imdiately said, "I promise to complete the mission."
Bai Zhongqi nodded and continued, "The mission is not complicated. Look, after we narrowly escaped death, we arrived in this galaxy, which seems to be very busy because it has a comrcial planet."
With Bai Zhongqi's explanation, the projector beside him displayed an image captured by the Sacred Falcon, showing a small asteroid that had been modified beyond its natural state. Chi Jia, who had just recently been thrown into the universe, was extrely amazed.
"Generally, on a comrcial planet, there are a large number of transactions, including the trading of information. This planet is not far from the Teizene civilization's ho planet, and the fact that this comrcial planet exists indicates that the interstellar consortium in control of it must have the strength to contend with Teizene and possess a lot of information about them. I plan to go to this comrcial planet to get valuable information or other things.
I will take Warship AI Zero with , as well as select so of your crew mbers who are in good physical condition. However, the Sacred Falcon cannot be left without soone in charge, so I hope you can stay on the ship, lead the remaining crew, and hold this warship together. We don't know what problems might exist in this galaxy or what risks we might encounter, but I authorize you to attack any existence that poses a threat to this warship."
Chi Jia hadn't expected to get the chance to command the Sacred Falcon so soon, even if just as an acting captain, but this honor also made him extrely excited.
As a soldier, he would not admit he was afraid of not being able to do the job well. Chi Jia gave a firm salute and said, "I promise to complete the mission!"
Bai Zhongqi did not doubt him, as he also carried the Supre Command, which could serve as the Sacred Falcon's second line of defense.
After giving instructions, Bai Zhongqi chose twelve of Chi Jia's crew mbers, including Navigator Jun Jiushao, dical Officer Yin Qiao, Pilot Taschwe, along with so bionic humans who were mainly logistical staff and his personal guards. Han Jiaxue was also among this small team; she had studied Universe Civilization Relations, was proficient in interstellar trade and could be a great help to Bai Zhongqi.
And Warship AI Zero stood by Bai Zhongqi's side, even closer than his official girlfriend, Han Jiaxue. Her reason was that in an uncertain place, she must protect the Chancellor of Iridium Star even more carefully.
Even though it was her first interstellar voyage and her first encounter with a true extraterrestrial civilization, Han Jiaxue showed no fear before Bai Zhongqi and expressed her knowledge.
"The overall construction of this comrcial planet is a very typical comrcial planet setup. Around its border, 500,000 kiloters away, there is a warning line set up, and any military ships are not allowed to enter within this range," she explained.
Bai Zhongqi nodded, understanding this quite well. The 500,000-kiloter distance was already beyond the firing range of the main weapons of most interstellar civilization warships, and the main purpose of setting such a warning line was to judge the intentions of the others. A civilization that truly wants to do business would not bring their warships to this distance.
Now Bai Zhongqi had the Sacred Falcon stop twenty thousand kiloters from the warning line, from where he would take his temporarily assembled "trade group" to the comrcial planet.
The Sacred Falcon, this huge ship, was equipped with fighter squadrons, cargo spacecraft, engineering spacecraft, and even Bai Zhongqi's Aqua Shuttle. Bai Zhongqi himself took the Aqua Shuttle while ordering the pilot Taschwe to fly a cargo spacecraft, both heading towards the comrcial planet.
"Within the warning line is the customs of this comrcial planet, where all incoming spacecraft must clear customs. It is unclear how open this comrcial planet is, but if it is a rather free comrcial planet, we just need to fill out our nas and give our civilizations any title," Han Jiaxue said, obviously knowledgeable about these matters.
While listening to Han Jiaxue, Jun Jiushao brought up a concern, "But how will our Star Alliance communicate with this comrcial planet? Our languages are different, aren't they?"
This concern was quickly addressed when the Aqua Shuttle flew to the customs entrance and queued for entry. A small flying device was released by the customs of the comrcial planet, which was more of a connector with adjustable port docking capabilities than a flying device.
Bai Zhongqi also opened an external interface on the Aqua Shuttle, sothing that almost any interstellar spacecraft would have. It could form a closed circuit and not be connected to the main engine of the spacecraft. This ans that if the information sent by the other party might contain a virus, it would not affect the main engine and result in an unforeseen disaster.
Of course, a comrcial planet opening its doors for business would hardly play such tricks and damage its own reputation.
Zero narrowed her eyes slightly, as if a stream of information had just swept past her, "The other party has sent a large amount of data, including a language that is likely the official language used by this comrcial planet."
"The language of the other party has been analyzed. Other incoming information has been recognized, including a comrcial trade manual sent by them."
Bai Zhongqi was quite interested in this. Clearly, any civilization newly arriving would likely have communication difficulties, but the other party thoughtfully used image demonstrations to convey their script to new custors and also included so very useful "shopping guides."
Even if doing business extended to the Galaxy, certain traits of rchants never change; to earn more profits, they need to serve their custors better.
