"As we all know, in the interstellar era, metal, land, food, etc., many things are not lacking, because there are too many planets without intelligent beings, and any few can be transformed to supply an entire civilization." The auction host stood on the stage and said eloquently: "However, there is one thing that has always been in demand and can never be satisfied, and that is energy!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the people below immediately began to whisper.

"Is energy really that important?" In the private room, Shang Yu asked Old Man Dugu.

In this regard, the old man smiled and said: "The official word is two-mouthed, you can say whatever you want, anyway, there is no civilization that lacks energy, but there is no civilization that can fully meet the energy supply, including the Silver Heart Empire, can't." For example, if they want to keep the 'Silver Heart Light' on, they can't afford to consume energy. We are the same, as early as a thousand years ago, many people envisioned the emergence of a 'perpetual motion machine', but now that a thousand years have passed, there is still no progress. Can you say that the current earthlings don't want the kind of sports car that can run for a lifetime without charging or refueling? ”

When Shang Yu heard this, he immediately understood that this was just an infinite pursuit.

The lower limit has been met, and everywhere will not be paralyzed by lack of energy anyway.

But upward, unless a "perpetual motion machine" and "eternal energy" are created, it is impossible for either earthlings or aliens to give up the pursuit of energy.

After all, there are so many places to consume energy that even the slightest energy improvement can save a lot of money.

And what high-level energy can do, low-level energy can't.

For example, oil, even if it is refined 10,000 times, it will not activate the "Silver Heart Light".

"Today's finale item, it's a very special energy source!" The auction host waited for the people below to calm down, and then said, "Why do you say it's special?" Because its constituent substance is the most basic, it can be converted into any energy 'space-time energy', whether you use it as energy for spaceships, or as industrial raw materials, or even eat it in your stomach to satisfy your hunger! ”

Immediately, many of the people below showed expressions of disbelief.

It's easy to say that it is used for energy and industrial raw materials, but what the hell is it used to satisfy hunger?

Most of the intelligent life in the galaxy is humanoid flesh and blood life, and they have never heard of anyone who can directly eat energy blocks.

Just like the earthlings of the twentieth century, they couldn't drink gasoline directly.

But this space-time coin can be used to satisfy hunger, and at the same time, it can also be used as energy, and there is such a magical substance in the universe?

"I don't think you believe it, in fact, at the beginning, I didn't believe it either, but after the expert test of the Silver Heart Empire, it has been determined that the composition of this energy is very special, and it can indeed be absorbed by the human body, and it can even be said that anyone who needs energy, whether it is a person or a thing, can be completely absorbed, and the conversion rate is one hundred percent!" The auction host said again.

At this point, those people below were completely excited.

As the strongest civilization in the galaxy, the reputation of the Silver Heart Empire is still very high, and according to the results of their tests, people of all civilizations believe it.

It can be used as any energy, and the conversion rate is still 100%, this substance is undoubtedly of particularly high research value - if the principle can be analyzed and created through scientific and technological means, it will definitely set off a galactic energy revolution, and then all interstellar civilizations will usher in a wave of rapid development.

After all, there are so many places that can be used for universal energy.

"In addition, don't underestimate this currency, according to the detection, the energy contained in it, after being converted into electrical energy, is even equivalent to the value of a ton of gold, and the energy purity is beyond imagination!" The auction host said impassionedly: "Now, we are auctioning this space-time coin based on the currency of the Earth Federation, and the price starts at 100 million!" ”

As soon as these words came out, someone immediately shouted: "I'll give a billion!" ”

"1.5 billion!"

"Two billion!"

"Five billion!"

"Seven billion!"

Prices kept going up, and soon, they were ten times, twenty times, or even more than the cost.

"Ten billion!" Aliens from the interstellar coalition also began to make bids.

"If this thing is used to make antimatter nuclear weapons, it seems to be quite good, I will pay 30 billion!" Old man Dugu spoke.

Immediately, everyone in the entire auction house was stunned.

The Earth Federation's Black Star Army occupies half of the land here, not only has money, but also is the ruler, and most of the interstellar merchants began to secretly think about whether to stop bidding after hearing the price of the old man Dugu.

After all, it's not worth offending the Earth Federation for the sake of an energy source that I don't know if it can be analyzed.

But some people are afraid, and some people are not afraid, and an alien in the interstellar alliance said: "Five tens of billions!" This space-time coin is determined by our interstellar alliance, no matter how much money your Earth Federation pays, we will follow, and the price will be doubled, if Commander Dugu wants to fight with us, just come! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned again.

The two rulers of the Black Star, the two forces that each occupy half of the resources, competed, and the ordinary small interstellar merchants gave up the bidding without thinking about it.

Fear of offending people is one thing, but the most important thing is that there is not enough financial resources.

Using personal property to bargain with the rulers of the planet is not a real interstellar businessman, and it is impossible to play at all.

"Six tens of billions! Others are afraid of the interstellar alliance, but my civilization is not afraid! An alien from a higher civilization said.

But immediately after, another person cried: "100 billion!" ”

This sentence was so loud that everyone was stunned, and Shang Yu was also stunned.

"Do you want to be so outrageous?" He asked Dugu Yijian.

"Let me tell you briefly!" Old man Dugu said with a smile: "We secretly arranged it, so that the interstellar alliance and some alien businessmen accidentally got the method of 'making space-time coins', but we need to have samples." Before the auction began, they had already fought with each other, and even we, the Earth Federation, pretended to compete for the manufacturing method, and then deliberately created some accidents, so that the interstellar alliance and several advanced interstellar civilizations got the 'manufacturing method', but our Earth Federation did not get it. ”

Shang Yu was stunned when he heard this.

No wonder it's so crazy, it turned out that it was calculated by Old Man Dugu!

"So now, they think that the Earth Federation will do its best to get this 'sample' and share new energy with them, so they deliberately suppress it?" Shang Yu said: "And the purpose is undoubtedly to exclude the Earth Federation, so that we can't join the new energy revolution?" ”

"That's right." Dugu Yijian said with a smile.

In this regard, Shang Yu had a feeling: This old man is really insidious!

On the other side, the bidding continued, and soon it was as high as hundreds of billions, and the old man Dugu followed from time to time, seemingly a little impatient, but in fact, he sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and did not panic at all.

After all, this space-time coin, and the so-called manufacturing method, were originally thrown out by him.

"A trillion!" After the nineteen representatives of the interstellar alliance discussed, one of them stood up and said: "I don't care how much money you pay, I will follow, until I feel that it is not worth it, and then I will pit you!" Anyway, there can only be two results for this thing, either we get it, or you get it at a high price, wasting a huge amount of wealth! ”

As soon as the words fell, the old man Dugu said: "Two trillion! ”

"Three trillion!" An interstellar merchant said, "This is my limit, and if I have more, although I want to contribute to my civilization, I have no money." ”

"Four trillion!" said the representative of the Interstellar Alliance.

This time, the old man Dugu did not ask for the price, and the host quickly determined it three times, and then finalized the hammer deal.

"I think my talent for doing business is still too poor, I've been opening a store for more than a month, and I haven't sold a few space-time coins with a cost price of 400 million, but you guys are good, one sells for 4 trillion, and you make 10,000 times more!" Shang Yu said with emotion.
