Interstellar: While Everyone Else Flees for Their Lives, I Trade Secrets for a Fleet

The entire universe wants to seize the list of secrets in his hands, but he sold the truth for a fortune.

Shen Du was just a low-level logistics officer at Xinghai Trading Company. He'd spent five years doing backbreaking work for a meager wage. Then he uncovered an original list of secrets buried deep in the ledgers and learned that the company wasn't making its money from freight charges at all. It was profiting from accidents, insurance, war, and the dead.

He planned to report it, but that very day he was framed as an "industrial spy." His assets were frozen, his identity revoked, and he was declared wanted across the universe.

One retired transport ship, two onboard AIs, and an "original copy" everyone wanted to seize. The Federation wanted to hush things up, the Empire wanted to silence him, and the black market was driving the price through the roof.

If the truth was worth this much, Shen Du decided he was done hiding. He'd sell while on the run, make money as he sold, seize key nodes, reap the profits, stockpile routes, and build a fleet. He would turn the manhunt against him into the most profitable business in the entire star sea.
