Chapter 2 Amethyst

Saying goodbye to their families, Xiao Ai and Uncle got on the starship. Because it was a long-distance flight, his parents bought a first-class ticket for Xiao Ai, and Xiao Ai had a separate room with a bathroom. The room is small but well-equipped, in addition to a single bed, there is a desk, and it is commendable that it is also equipped with a video camera, which can make the room simulate the environment, put yourself in a simulated environment, and also relieve the boredom of the trip. Xiao Ai prefers to simulate the primeval forest, where the sunlight shines through the gaps in the thick leaves, forming dots of light, which inexplicably makes people feel a sense of longing.

Of course, Xiao Ai is not in a daze in her cabin, she still has to work hard to make up for her homework. In the Lin family, her parents did not give her any pressure on her studies, and there was no expectation that her daughter had to be a master, and Xiao Ai's good academic performance was all due to her consciousness.

In addition to tutoring by herself, Xiao Ai can also study and have fun on the star network. The star network logs in from the personal side, although the identity of the star network can be anonymous, and the face can also be changed, but in fact, the background data is real-name, and the database is controlled by the imperial security department. However, as a minor, Xiao Ai's use of the star network is limited, and she can only learn on the star network, such as practicing interstellar languages with others, and you can find language corners in different interstellar languages on the star network; You can chat and make friends here; You can also play games that don't contain non-safe content (so there are games with non-safe content?). ) and other activities suitable for minors.

On this day, Xiao Ai planned to go to the restaurant to eat something after the video with her family. Since the uncle is an adult and has his own social circle and hobbies, Xiao Ai generally does not participate in activities with the uncle, but is either alone or with the Clay siblings who are also in the first class. The Clay siblings are about the same age as Xiao Ai, and they are always easier to get along with each other and have a common language.

As soon as he arrived at the restaurant, Xiao Ai was dragged aside by Sister Clay, and said mysteriously, "Xiao Ai, I just saw someone in box 3 take out a piece of amethyst." "What" Xiao Ai was surprised, "Are you sure?" "I'm sure, I happened to pass by when the waiter opened the door just now, and it's true."

Xiao Ai is also very excited. Amethyst is a kind of hard crystal, in addition to amethyst, there are red crystal, citrine, green crystal, aquamarine, etc., the darker the color, the better the texture. These hard crystals are naturally occurring minerals in interstellar planets, and they are not produced much, and more importantly, these hard crystals are energy crystals that contain convertible energy, so they are very valuable. As a result, hard crystals are used as hard currency in some cases, allowing buyers to pay energy crystals directly to the seller when buying and selling large amounts of property, which is both portable and resistant to currency depreciation.

Although the Lin family is considered rich, as a family in a second-class planet, they still don't have the strength to have energy crystals. Xiao Ai has only seen energy crystals in pictures and videos, and has never seen real energy crystals before.

"I don't know if I have a chance to see it today," Xiao Ai grinded while sucking the drink with a straw. It is impossible for her to force her into the No. 3 private room, so she can only hope that the guests in the No. 3 private room can come out with amethyst, but is it possible? Although a piece of amethyst may not be a particularly valuable object for the wealthy people of the capital star, the energy crystal is really precious in the entire interstellar world. 1 carat of energy crystals can be exchanged for 1 million Edith coins, and Xiao Ai's annual living expenses are only 10,000 Edith coins, which is already very generous, and the annual income of 10,000 Edith coins in Porter Star can feed a family of three, and maybe there will be savings.
