"Let's go, everyone, if you don't go to the auction house when you come here, people will laugh." Yang Hualong said as he walked out.
In fact, today is the second day since the Chinese Kingdom’s mission settled down, and the third day since it arrived at its destination. However, because he had used a fake body to visit the Dongsheng Empire five years ago, the Dongsheng Empire was also very considerate and had already prepared the necessary accommodation for Hua Xia. This is a garden with a radius of 20 kilometers, which is enough to perfectly accommodate 10 million people - this is calculated based on China's technological status; in fact, under the technical guidance of the Dongsheng Empire, this place is enough to accommodate 100 million people. . Residential buildings one kilometer high are rising from the ground, with small parking lots for suspended vehicles on the roof.
Between the floors, every hundred meters in height, there is a channel marked by a red laser beam. Here, because the population is too dense, traffic roads have to be divided even in the air. In residential areas, every 100 meters of space is counted as a residential floor, and a layer of suspended car passages can be arranged.
\No\error\.()(). Large-scale suspended vehicle passages and spacecraft passages are arranged at high altitude or in the suburbs. This is a high-tech society with a completely clear division of labor. It will take some time for Chinese civilization to develop to this level. In fact, this is also due to the shortage of living space; if China has been expanding externally, it would be another matter - in fact, so far, China has not digested the fat it bit off from the Tianyun Empire last time: Those six galaxies and more than 20 habitable planets have not yet been sorted out; after all, the foundation is too thin.
A row of hover cars swayed towards the center of this 50,000-kilometer-diameter space continent. The hovercar is not big, and each hovercar can accommodate at least two people. There were at most 50 people, and there were more than 100 people in this row of suspended vehicles. Almost all the important people from China who came here were present; Boss Zhang even led his three wives - but this is nothing, in the universe In some countries, polygamy is normal, and some races even have a matriarchal society!
In the center, there is a huge building with a diameter of 10 kilometers. This is the auction house hosted by the four empires, and the meaning of its existence. Just for this one-year auction! Wait a minute!
The height of the auction hall is 300 meters. The first level is mainly merchant associations, etc., the second level is the kingdom, and the third level is the empire representatives. The Kingdom of China could only succumb to the status of a kingdom because it maintained a neutral posture. In addition, he has indeed made a lot of contributions to the Pearl Star Territory over the years. The Chinese Kingdom's position is relatively high. The hover car and driver are naturally waiting at the designated location outside. Calculated according to Chinese time. The auction starts at 11 noon every day - taking into account everyone's habit of sleeping in and long distances and other reasons; it closes at 20 p.m. and is open for almost 8 hours a day.
The current auction has been held for more than a month. But it was the first time for people from China to participate. Of course, there are still many national missions still on the way.
It’s my first time to participate in such an auction, so of course I want to experience it before putting up my own auction items! As Yang Hualong said, you must participate in such an auction no matter what. After ten thousand years of waiting, there will be too many things on display, and it will also be an alternative display of the Pearl Star Territory. Through the above performance, you can see part of the "heart" of the Pearl Star Territory.
Although the auction house is divided into three levels, all participants can get the same auction opportunity. After all, sometimes Xu, perhaps a representative of a certain business group, may be richer than some kingdoms. A kingdom or empire is sometimes not necessarily richer than a large business group.
For example, the business groups of the four major empires have mastered the Star Dream Interstellar Network, and their wealth is estimated to be much greater than that of the empires at the bottom. No matter which aspect, the auction is for money; of course, the face of the four empires may also be taken care of at this time; but the core is still wealth; in this case, of course there will be no superfluous restrictions here, that is I have trouble with my wallet. And the more people participate in the auction, the more intense the competition and the more active the atmosphere, which in turn will lead to a higher auction price...
Because there are so many auction items, tens of millions of them, unless they are typical or extremely special items, they are usually put out three days in advance and then bid freely. The closing time officially ends three days later in the evening, and the one with the highest price wins; if there is a conflict in the quotations, these parties compete until the one with the highest price is finally decided.
The goods that can be put on the auction floor and auctioned by the auctioneer are real treasures.
This huge auction house with a radius of ten kilometers and a staircase layout allows everyone at the scene to see the big screen in the middle! In other words: light curtain. The light curtain is two kilometers long and wide in diameter, hanging slightly tilted in the sky. Under such an arrangement, the entire venue was filled with alternative noise and passion. Each area has automatic language translation.
"Good afternoon everyone, I am hosting the auction this time and I am from the Northern Empire.
Okay, no nonsense, I know everyone is waiting impatiently and time is tight. The first auction item is a starry sky beast, an eight-clawed beast.
I know a lot of up-and-comers haven’t heard of Star Behemoth. Let me explain a little bit.
As we all know, our Pearl Star Territory has a strange life energy, and it is very strong. If we leave the coverage of this energy, our physical fitness and life span will shrink, or even our life span can be halved.
But few people know that in the early days of our Pearl Star Territory, it was very difficult for intelligent life to survive. This is because in this rich life energy, there exists a strange and powerful life. They are the giant beasts in the starry sky.
This kind of life is very powerful and can attack unprotected spacecraft and soar in space. According to our current data, the largest starry behemoth can grow to hundreds of kilometers in length, swallow up all living things on the planet, and even drink up the oceans. This is a powerful, cruel and unintelligent beast.
But unfortunately, during the expansion of intelligent life. This kind of life disappeared in the Pearl Star Territory.
The body structure of this starry behemoth plays an irreplaceable guiding role in building large spaceships. The body structure, genetic factors, living habits, etc. of the starry sky beasts all have an irreplaceable impact on our current technology.
What is being auctioned now is what was frozen on the cold planet by the four empires hundreds of thousands of years ago. In this auction, 12 starry sky beasts will be auctioned within one year. This is the first one, which is now in the warehouse of the Wannian Space Continent and is being kept in a small spacecraft.
Length 550 meters. It weighs 3.27 million tons. The average body density reaches 1.86, which is a life form that far exceeds the density of our body.
Everyone, as far as we know now, the starry beast is gone. Only the frozen planets of the four empires still exist. But whatever. One less auction. Seize the opportunity. Not to be missed.
Traces of many technologies in the Pearl Star Region can be found on them. The starry sky beast can use strange life energy to fly freely from the planet and the universe.
alright. Fairy A started the auction, with a starting price of 50 million cosmic coins, and no limit to the increase. ”
"We have all this!!!" There was no auction for a while, and the scene was a little cold. Many people are discussing it.
The auctioneer was not in a hurry, but took his time, and only now did he release the picture of the so-called eight-clawed beast.
The surface of the body is the same color as burnt black rock, and looks like a shadow of an exoskeleton. The body is as slender as a stick insect, but with many segments. It also has a large mouth as wide as the body, and four thick, thick and long bodies under the body. claws, and there are four claws behind it, but they are slightly smaller. It's really, really ugly.
"Photograph it!" Zhang Jingyuan used Yuan Shen's voice transmission to tell Zhang Wanfei directly, "This should be a monster in this universe, and it is of extraordinary value. As long as we can photograph this thing, we will make a profit on this trip."…
"Okay, Grandpa Taizu." Zhang Wanfei was just an obedient primary school student in front of Zhang Jingyuan. But anyone with such an ancestor would probably be like this.
"One hundred million!" Now that the decision was made, Zhang Wanfei was not polite; he directly directed Feng Huidong to bid. Over the years, the Kingdom of China has made a lot of money through patent fees and elixirs. The price of those half of the elixirs auctioned has doubled year after year.
"Okay, the Kingdom of China offers 100 million. Is there anyone else who bids?"
"200 million!" There are many rich people.
"Okay, the White Fox Empire bids 200 million yuan." The auctioneer was tepid, but it was this attitude that made the atmosphere heated.
"500 million!" Feng Huidong didn't even think about it.
"600 million!" The White Fox Empire followed closely.
Now, Feng Huidong stopped bidding. Instead, he waited for others to bid several times, then quoted 1 billion again, and finally got it. There is a small trick here. First, sharply increase the price to show that you are determined to win; and then relax a little in the middle to avoid direct conflict with the White Fox Empire. Otherwise, the two countries will compete for face.
In fact, such a starry sky beast is only auctioned for 1 billion, which is very cheap. As the auctioneer said, if one sells this thing, one will be lost. And such things are even more important to China.
"Congratulations to the Kingdom of China. The second item is auctioned below.
Oh, my God, this second item is really shocking. It turns out to be a planet, a planet with a diameter of 30,000 kilometers. Moreover, after the auction, the seller is also responsible for delivering the planet to the auctioneer. However, it costs 12 million per light year, which is a very cheap transportation fee.
Let's take a look at what characteristics this planet has.
The average temperature of the planet is minus 30 degrees Celsius, making it uninhabitable. And this planet is not meant for habitation. This planet is rich in a kind of beautiful stone, which is as warm as water and comes in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. The entire planet is covered with this kind of stone from the inside out, so the average density of the planet is only 3.2.
Please see the picture below, wow, what a beautiful planet. Apart from 120 exploration sites, this planet has not been excavated or developed. This is the most beautiful planet I have ever seen in my life, old man.
The auction is starting now, with a starting price of 1.5 billion yuan, plus shipping costs. start. ”
"This... this is basically a jade stone that originated from..." Zhang Jingyuan was shocked. "Take pictures and take pictures. With so many jade stones, our practice will make great progress. Whether it is the layout of formations or the needs of culture itself, this planet is very important to us!"
The planet looks like colored ice, so beautiful. But as the photos were played and explained, too many countries were moved, but the starting price of 1.5 billion also discouraged many countries. In the Pearl Star Territory, the excessive development of technology will naturally ignore the value of natural gems such as jade. It’s not that I don’t pay attention to it, but I don’t pay much attention to it! With a starting price of 1.5 billion yuan and expensive shipping costs, after ordinary people get it, they won't make much profit even if they develop it immediately. With 1.5 billion yuan of space coins, you can buy 15 large commercial spaceships!
Moreover, in the age of the universe, metal minerals are much more expensive than so-called gems and the like. Nothing more, just practical! Steel is the most fundamental wealth of a country and also the symbol of fist!
"Two billion!" Feng Huidong spoke again, attracting all the attention at once. After witnessing the madness of China before, and the fact that this planet was really not worth much, there were not many bidders, and it was finally won by China for 2.2 billion yuan.
In the subsequent process, I didn’t find anything exciting. Instead, I spent most of my time looking at the products that were available for free bidding—the goods were picked up in 3 days. There are a lot of technologies in this, which are very important to China.
