My Battleship Can Receive Infinite Upgrades - Chapter 31

“Previously, I heard Hank mention that Baron Darkmoon is preparing to sign an open trade agreement with Baron Soro. Part of the payment is related to education.”

“Allow people from Baron Darkmoon’s side to apply for Baron Soro’s secondary education academy. This is our chance.”

As Lin Dong listened to Luo Fei’s explanation, he frowned a little.

It seemed to be the case. However, Lin Dong did not have many memories of this matter. At that time, he was only focused on running away from the Sylvester family. How would he pay attention to something unrelated to himself?

Baron Darkmoon and Baron Soro’s territories were adjacent to each other. Both sides were neighbors, and they were equal.

However, although both sides seemed to be the same, there were actually great differences.

For example, Baron Darkmoon was a pioneer lord that was directly conferred the noble title by the king of the Ardent Fire Empire. Baron Darkmoon needed to swear loyalty to the king.

As for Baron Soro, he was conferred the title of nobility by Count Tianfang of the Northern Starfield. Baron Soro had to obey Count Tianfang’s orders and not pay too much attention to the king’s orders. Even if Count Tianfang was a subordinate of the king, it was the same.

This was the characteristic of the feudal system.

The vassals of the king’s vassals were not the king’s vassals.

As neighbors, there were good and bad relationships. However, the relationship between Baron Darkmoon’s territory and Baron Soro’s territory was neutral.

If the trade agreement was truly implemented, the relationship between the 2 sides would likely rise to neutral and friendly.

Although he was not clear about the specific process, in Lin Dong’s memory, this agreement was ultimately annulled.

Speaking of which, there was also Lin Dong’s reason behind the annulment of the agreement.

Before he was reborn, he had secretly purchased energy blocks from the person in charge of the Ninth merchant group in Baron Darkmoon’s territory, Toya. This had caused some suspicions.

As a result, Baron Darkmoon joined in the pursuit of Lin Dong’s thunder fire.

Coincidentally, not long after, Lin Dong was brought to Baron Soro’s territory as Baron Soro’s illegitimate child.

This caused the enmity of Baron Darkmoon, which led to the annulment of the open trade agreement.

Currently, Lin Dong did not reveal his existence, so he would not cause Baron Darkmoon to cancel the agreement.

However, Lin Dong was uncertain whether this open trade agreement could be successfully or not.

“The impact of the changes I have made is gradually expanding. The direction has changed. Perhaps, it will lead me into a good direction.”

Many thoughts flashed across Lin Dong’s mind as he recalled the differences between his previous life.

He turned his head and smiled at Luo Fei as he said, “This is an opportunity. You should prepare first. If you don’t have enough money for the tuition fees and other things, feel free to ask me.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t stand on ceremony. Have a drink.” Luo Fei grinned as he gulped down a mouthful of wine.

There was no need to stand on ceremony when it came to the concern between the 2 of them.

“Hey, why are the 2 of you standing so close to each other in the corner? Are you 2 hiding something? Tell me and I’ll you my sincere blessings.”

Luo Fei turned his head when he heard this. A girl wearing a pink dress, revealing her arms and calves, was standing not far away from them.

Lin Dong rolled his eyes: “You are pretty, but what are you thinking about all the time?”

It was Li Ziqing, the former group leader of his class. She was very pretty and had a good figure. She was very considerate toward others and had quite a reputation among her classmates. It was said that she had a good family background.

When he saw Li Ziqing appear, Luo Fei immediately felt a little uneasy.

This was the goddess in his heart and had not changed for many years.

Li Ziqing did not have much of a reaction to Lin Dong’s ridicule. She coldly snorted and sat beside Luo Fei.

At the same time, he pulled over a female classmate and asked her to sit beside Lin Dong.

“I don’t need you to worry about me. Just take good care of Ding Ling.”

Ding Ling’s figure was petite and exquisite. She had a delicate facial features, and she was a little chubby. She was just like a large barbie doll and was very cute.

After being asked to sit beside Lin Dong by Li Ziqing, she looked at Lin Dong with a slightly blushing face. Soon after, she lowered her head and did not say anything.

Lin Dong did not feel anything as he smiled and said, “Ding Ling, long time no see. When did you come back?”

“I came back the day before yesterday to visit my grandparents.”

Ding Ling softly replied.

Although she lowered her head to reply, her small face was facing Lin Dong. Both of her hands were clenched, and she was a little shy. This was her nature, and she was not good at interacting with others, especially when it came to Lin Dong.

Ding Ling was very popular among the boys. However, Lin Dong did not like her. He also did not give her any ambiguous feelings.

It was not that Lin Dong did not want to play with her, but he was not ready for it.

However, Ding Ling’s father was the chief security officer of the mining planet. Her father was powerful, and if Lin Dong toucher her, he would be going against the whole mining planet and Baron Darkmoon behind Ding Ling’s father.

Lin Dong had not settle his matter with the Sylvester family. Hence, it was not good to provoke Baron Darkmoon all of a sudden.

When choosing between life and death, Lin Dong was still able to restrain his desires.

The 2 of them exchanged a few words with each other before falling into silence.

On the other hand, Luo Fei and Li Ziqing were chatting passionately. Their relationship seemed to be on the verge of taking a step further.

As the agreed time was about to arrive, the number of students present increased and the gathering officially began.

However, before that, the initiator of the gathering needed to speak first.

This time, it was class monitor Zhao Yan.

If Li Ziqing was the goddess in Luo Fei’s heart, then Zhao Yan was the goddess of all the boys in the school. Not only was she beautiful and had a good figure, she was only 20 years old. When she walked and spoke, she emitted a trace of charm, causing people to remember her voice.

Even though Luo Fei already had a goddess in his heart, he was still attracted to Zhao Yan when he saw her.

Only after being secretly stepped on by Li Ziqing did he regain his senses.

It was difficult for Lin Dong to hide the admiration in his eyes as well.

If anyone in his social circle was most likely to use their own efforts to achieve a level rise and enter the privileged class from the commoner class, it would be Zhao Yan.

Not only did she possess the looks to attract men, she also possessed the capability that matched her looks.

As for whether Zhao Yan had successfully entered the privileged class, Lin Dong was uncertain.

He did not retain any memories about Zhao Yan. Most of the information that he remembered was related to the crisis that he had encountered and his own safety.

Within the private room, Zhao Yan stood up and looked at the entire place. The entire place immediately became quiet.

She easily controlled the entire place.

After a few welcoming words, Zhao Yan got down to business.

“This gathering is mainly because of a piece of news. I believe some of you are already aware that Baron Darkmoon and Baron Soro are discussing an open trade agreement.”

“There are many related rumors, but I have reliable sources. The negotiation process is very smooth. If there are no issues, both sides will be able to reach an agreement within 2 months at the latest!”

Zhao Yan paused slightly and observed the expressions of the students participating in the gathering.

However, only a small number of students showed a happy expression, most of the students looked confused and did not know what they meant.

Upon seeing this, she was not surprised. After all, only a small number of people could judge the follow-up development through small matters.

She had selected the people participating in the gathering beforehand, they were all people who were not satisfied with the status quo. Those who were not willing to work hard were not informed at all.

However, having the desire to advance did not mean that one could really advance.

It was not that easy to move up the social hierarchy. Without special encounters, it was often a long and difficult process.

However, it would be better to face it as a group rather than walking alone.

At least in the initial stage.

After remembering the few students who were smiling, Zhao Yan did not make them wait. She continued with her suggestion.
