Chapter 114 Auction begins

They didn't live together, mainly because they couldn't bear it.

Lonely men and widows live together, it is easy to resist the last step.

Although under his guidance, she learned some door skills, but the feeling of the upper mouth and the lower mouth is still different, mainly because the upper mouth dare not use force.

After a simple wash and went out, Ding Youran was ready to go out after waiting for a while, reached out and took her hand and got on the hovercraft.

The auction site is located on a certain floor of the star castle. The hovercraft ascends along the sightseeing passage. On the way, many players are also standing on the aircraft and flying in the same direction. They should also come to participate in the auction.

Different from the usual formal dress on the battleship, many of them wear the common military uniform of the pioneers. In leisure time, everyone wears casual clothes, especially women.

It's rare to be casual, many men have beautiful female companions, Li Qing and Ding Youran are not conspicuous among them.

Although he made a big splash half a year ago, everyone is forgetful. After half a year, most of them forget what he looks like.

No one would recognize him even if he stood in front of him, but if he introduced himself—I am Li Qing, the military chief of the Jialan Legion, then many people would be stunned, ‘Wow, it’s you! '

This is also a good thing for Li Qing, he doesn't want to be famous like a star who has no privacy at all.

When I came to the venue, there were several beautiful waiters wearing cheongsams checking the invitation letter at the door, and they were all natural people, not clones or biochemical people.

When they arrived, one of the beautiful waiters bowed down and saluted, and said with a smile on an electronic device:

"Please show your invitation letter!"

The so-called invitation letter is to swipe the left wrist wheel to verify the identity. There are so many people who come to participate in the auction, and many of them are outside all year round. It is impossible for one person to send a physical invitation letter.

"Beep!"

The electronic instrument lights up, a beam of clear light is projected on it, and a dark golden pattern emerges on it, with a line of small characters written in the center.

The woman's eyes lit up obviously, and her attitude became more respectful:

"It turns out to be the military chief of the Garan Legion, please wait a moment."

The woman used the wrist wheel to notify the rear, and soon a beautiful woman wearing a silver cheongsam with a slim figure came over, clasped her hands on her lower abdomen, and said with a smile:

"Your Excellency, please follow me."

Li Qing nodded with a smile, and followed her.

Looking at the swaying exquisite figure of this magnificent cheongsam beauty, Li Qing turned his head sideways and whispered in Ding Youran's ear:

"When the auction is over, you can also buy a few sets of cheongsams."

She whispered:

"I have it, I'll show you how to wear it when I go back."

He raised his eyebrows, and said in a low voice:

"Is there any one with high forks!"

Ding Youran was speechless, but a little shy:

"No."

"Then go buy it."

"Um!"

The voice was so low that I could hardly hear it clearly.

The cheongsam beauty led him to the back of the auction house, entered a corridor, and saw many doors on the side of the corridor with number plates on them. There was a woman in cheongsam standing at many doors, and one of the doors with the number 17 stood two people. The man was chatting with the beautiful woman in cheongsam at the door.

Seeing Li Qing and Ding Youran passing by, one of the men hesitated for a moment, turned his head and asked the companion beside him:

"Let's see if that person looks familiar."

The other man who was chatting with the beautiful woman turned his head to take a closer look, and immediately showed a look of shock on his face:

"It's the military chief of the Garan Legion!"

"Li Qing?"

"Yes, that's him. The one next to him should be Ding Youran, the chief industrial officer of the Jialan Legion."

"When did he come back? I haven't heard from him for half a year, so I thought he was going to do something important."

"No, why are he and Ding Youran so close? A long time ago, wasn't he and Yu Yuefei, the leader of the Jialan Army, together with the Xuanguan? We were on two boats?"

"Big news, two women competing for husbands, this kind of romance novel plot is staged in the Jialan Army, do you think there will be an earthquake inside the Jialan Army, which will lead to division?"

The latter glanced at his friend and said:

"Is there a possibility that both women will fall in love with him and serve a husband together?"

"Impossible, both of them are from military lords, and both are direct descendants, with such high vision, how is it possible, uh, it is not impossible."

He rubbed his hair and said:

"This guy is too fierce. He is a powerful psychic ascender, and he holds a top-level relic, which is also a space-type relic. He also has a super naval commander under his command. Except for his poor background, everything else is top-notch. Among all the pioneers in the entire outpost, it can be ranked in the top five in comprehensive evaluation, it can be regarded as the fifth child of the super diamond, and it is not impossible to attract the hearts of two beauties at the same time."

Another nodded and added:

"His only shortcoming is that he was born in a side branch of the Qinghe Li family. The Qinghe Li family itself is regarded as the lower reaches among the military lords, and the side branch is not taken seriously. I heard that basically did not get much support from the family in the early stage. This achievement is all due to my own hard work, which I admire very much. If I can marry Yu Yuefei and Ding Youran and marry these two families, with the support of the local landlord Yu family, I can immediately make up for the biggest shortcoming. He is one of the top pioneers among all the pioneers of the outpost, as long as there are no major accidents, it will not be a problem to seize a living planet."

"Tsk tsk, a winner in life!"

"envious!"

The two couldn't stop clicking their tongues, watching Li Qing come down to the end of the corridor under the guidance of the cheongsam beauty, and stopped in front of the No. 2 door.

Before this, there are numbers 1 and 0.

"Mr. Li Qing, this box belongs to the Jialan Legion, please come in!"

Li Qing glanced ahead and asked:

"Who do those two belong to?"

The woman responded immediately:

"Box No. 1 belongs to the Halo Legion, and Box 0 is reserved. It will only be used if a big person from the expeditionary force comes."

"Well, thanks for the answer."

"You're welcome."

The beauty in the cheongsam opened the door, and Li Qing motioned for Ding Youran to go ahead.

The arrangement of this box is not a problem. Although he is confident of defeating the current Halo Legion head-on, in the eyes of outsiders, the Halo Legion with a larger fleet, regardless of population, territory, or affiliated players, is more than five times that of Galan. Legion is stronger.

He doesn't care about temporary gains and losses. It doesn't matter if he can't compare now. In a year and a half, when they take down the Reef Lair Galaxy, everyone will naturally know who is stronger.

The box is not big, and the decoration is quite luxurious, but they didn't pay attention to this point. He came to the glass wall without any decoration on the whole side of the box, pressed his finger lightly, a circle of transparent ripples opened, the glass lit up, and quickly changed It is so transparent that one can clearly see that behind the entire wall is the huge auction venue.

The inside can clearly see the outside, but the outside cannot see them.

At this time, the beauty in cheongsam introduced:

"The auction will start later, and all the items will be projected onto the light screen in front. You can adjust the distance and bid. I'm outside the door. What can I do?"

Li Qing suddenly reached out his hand to stop his words, turned his head and looked outside the door, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said to the cheongsam beauty:

"It's okay, you go out first, I'll call you if something happens."

"OK."

She bowed back, and the moment she opened the door, she saw a few people standing outside the door of the No. 1 box next to the door, surrounded by an extremely handsome man, and the two turned their heads at the same time as if they had sensed.

"Ye Xiao!"

"Li Qing!"

The eyes of the two of them suddenly had the light of spiritual energy overflowing, but they did not gain momentum.

The two smiled at the same time, and their gaze was interrupted when the door closed.

"Is that Li Qing?"

Lu Yi, who was standing next to Ye Xiao, didn't see it, but he guessed it based on this room.

"They should also come for those two flagships."

Ye Xiao smiled and said:

"So what, each according to his own ability!"

On the other side, Lu Qing smiled and said:

"If everyone depends on their own abilities, then we will take one of the flagships. In terms of capital, I don't believe there is any team that can match us now."

Not long after waiting, Li Qing and Ding Youran chatted in the private room for a while, and then heard the crisp bell ringing. Looking up through the glass, they could see the huge auction venue outside.

Compared to sitting in the crowd last time, this time you can sit in the box, and the changes in identity and status are particularly real.

"Boom!"

The high-spirited auction host stepped onto the stage, tapped the small gong lightly with a golden hammer, and said loudly with enthusiasm:

"Welcome all old and new friends to participate in this auction conference. The rules of this session are as follows."

"When you enter the venue, you are deemed to have agreed to provide auction services by this auction house, and you must not regret or give up the auction afterwards."

"During the bidding process, no loud noises, no collusion to lower the price, no malicious raising of the price, no interference with the normal bidding in any form, violators will be expelled from the auction site, blocked by the auction house, and will not be allowed to enter the bank's property in the future. Relevant auction venue."

"Once the auction item is auctioned, if there is a breach of contract, 20% of the auction item will be paid as liquidated damages. If you refuse to pay, you will be expelled from the auction site and blocked."

"The following are the basic rules of this auction. If you have any questions, please contact customer service for consultation. Now the auction is starting. Please take the first lot of this auction."

Two hostesses walked over carrying a silver plate covered with a red cloth. The auction host lifted the red cloth to reveal a crystal card in the silver plate. The host pointed to the card and introduced loudly:

"This is a hundred standard ranger-class cruisers, finished products, full of five-tier cannons and salvo module configurations, including clone crew members, senior crew members, and captains. They are parked at the outpost Star Fort, as long as they are photographed. To be able to enter the battle, the starting price is 200 billion star yuan, and the minimum price increase is 1 billion each time."

"A hundred cruisers."

He turned his head and saw Ding Youran's face moved slightly, he patted the back of her hand lightly and said:

"No, it's too expensive."

She hesitated, and said:

"But this is a hundred finished cruisers."

Li Qing nodded and said:

"I know it's a hundred finished cruisers, but I can build a cruiser now, which is much cheaper than auctioning. There is no need to spend this money."

"I know you can build, but you can only build ten ships at a time, and there are not enough divisions within the legion."

"I can only build ten ships at a time. It's not that I can only build ten ships, but there is only one chief engineer. If there are several, I can build dozens of ships at a time."

"It's so lacking!"

Li Qing nodded with emotion:

"There are too few high-level professional talents. There are so few chief engineers of cruisers, and even fewer chief engineers of battleships. Don't worry, wait until I find a way to get a group of high-level professional talents. Then the speed of shipbuilding will suddenly increase. It won't take long. A batch of dozens of cruisers and even battleships can be produced."

Hearing this, Ding Youran didn't insist anymore, and nodded:

"Then I will wait for your good news."

There are many players with ideas like Ding Youran's. When the auctioneer confirmed that he could bid, a bunch of people raised their cards at the same time.

Then a group of people quickly raised their cards as if they were robbing, and the price rose almost every second. It was so fast that even the professional auctioneer couldn't keep up with the bidding speed for a while, so he could only shout the price every few seconds.

In less than half a minute, the price changed from the starting price of 200 billion to 400 billion star dollars, and it continued to rise, and the speed has not slowed down much.

Normal market price of a top-equipped cruiser is 5.2 billion stars, 100 ships is 520 billion, and there must be a certain premium in the auction field, 300 billion is far from the final transaction price.

Li Qing lay on the soft sofa with his legs crossed and watched the bidding outside. It was rare to enjoy this kind of relaxation.

About two minutes later, the price slowly stopped when it reached about 584 billion in the alternating bids of an unknown number of people.

After all, it is a cruiser, not a battleship. If there are a hundred battleships here, someone will ask for a 100% premium.

The final transaction price was 592 billion stars.

It has to be said that as the strength of the players grows, the specifications of this auction are also slowly increasing. In the last session, it seemed that the few finale auctions did not fetch such a high price.

"When the scale of shipbuilding increases in the future, we can also prepare a hundred cruisers for auction in this way."

Ding Youran covered her mouth and chuckled:

"Are you jealous?"

"Of course I'm jealous, this is more profitable than retail."

With the strike of the golden hammer, the dust settled, and the second auction soon began.

Compared to the first lot, the second lot is much worse. There are only 100 destroyers, and the total price is only 75 billion.

Most of the next auction items are related to battleships. They are all bundled and auctioned together, or some rare blueprints, such as the sixth-level technological blueprints obtained by digging graves or opening boxes, or can be used for thousands of times. Thousands of blueprints and the like.

This is intentional by the auction house.

Although there are actually a lot of things that can be auctioned, for the players on the outpost base, the most useful things are fleet-related things. As long as they can directly improve their strength, they will not worry about selling them.

One lot was bought by the players in the auction below, and more than 30 lots were successfully sold in one go. In the top 20 boxes, except for the first 100 cruisers that had bids, there were no bids behind.

For them, most of these ordinary auctions are not in their eyes, and their goal is to come for the finale.

"Next is the thirty-fifth lot."

The auctioneer is still as enthusiastic as the beginning to introduce:

"Two slaves of the United Civilization of the Shata Tribe who possess knowledgeable talent and talent. They have not yet determined their occupations. They can freely choose their career training when they buy them back. The starting price is 2 billion star yuan, and each increase is no less than 100 million star yuan."

At the same time, a beam of light fell, and inside it was a creature with a snake head, a human body, and a snake tail. It was a snake-man family of the eight tribes of the Shata tribe.
