Chapter 31: The Polar Bear of the Local Tyrant
"Next, we will conduct the auction of the seventh exercise, "Ye Family Quick Knife", a first-order low-level exercise, the moves are sharp, the sword light is like snow, the price is 20 merit points, and the auction will start now!" Li Zhong gave a brief introduction and announced the start of bidding.
"Two hundred!" The Delegation of Brazil was the first to make an offer.
Although Brazil's economy has declined sharply in recent years, there is still some foundation, and the price of 200 copies can still be afforded.
Of course, they also know in their hearts that when there are only three exercises left, delegations from all countries will go all out to participate in the auction, and their offer of 200 copies is at most a hot field, and there is no possibility of success in the auction.
After all, Brazil is just a starving camel, and there are a lot of live elephants on the scene!
But even if they know this, they still have the hope in their hearts, this exercise is the worst of the many exercises tonight, and the introduction is also very low-end, maybe those big countries don't look down on this exercise at all, then they still hope to get this exercise.
It's a pity that the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
Within seconds of this idea, the Brazilian delegation shattered their illusions: "Five hundred copies!" β
500 is 10,000 merit points, and as soon as this offer comes out, all the rich and some small countries will be eliminated, and the next ones who are eligible to compete will only be those economic powers.
Over the years, Asan's population has been growing wildly, catching up with Huaguo, although because of the economic structure, the GDP is far inferior to Huaguo, but the merit points that can be taken out are also considerable.
"Eight hundred!" The island delegation made an offer.
Although the island country's economy has been in decline for more than 20 years due to the harvest of the American father, the foundation is still there, and there is no fear of bidding.
Although Britain, Germany, Italy, and France also want to bid, most of their domestic economies are supported by luxury goods, and in the evaluation system of the Temple of Heavens, the shrinkage is huge, and if they want to compete, they are also powerless.
The first-mover advantage allowed the European countries to still become world powers when the country was small and the people were outnumbered, but in front of the Temple of Heavens, their first-mover advantage disappeared and became small countries again.
However, the European countries were not willing to be left behind, and their national delegations deliberated, raised the banner of the European Union again, and as a group, quoted a high price: "1,000 copies!" β
The three delegations discussed and quoted a price again: "1,200 copies!" β
Before the failure of thermal weapons, the three countries were most enthusiastic about buying weapons from various countries to arm themselves, and now that the exercises have replaced the status of thermal weapons, their pursuit of weapons has also shifted to the exercises.
The European Union followed suit and quoted a price: "Fifteen hundred copies!" β
Although the current competition seems to be fierce, in fact, the real bigwigs have not yet ended, and the delegations of the United States, China, and the Polar Bears are the ones who have the most merit points in this one.
Huaguo has the largest manufacturing industry in the world, and according to the evaluation system of the Heavenly Temple, Huaguo's assets are exchanged for merit points and shrink very little, plus there is no exchange rate effect, so they can be said to have the most merit points that can be freely transferred.
Although the government of the United States is poor, the major consortia have money, and now they are openly bidding for the strength of the country, and the heads of these consortia will definitely fund the U.S. government's bidding as long as they are not stupid.
As for polar bears, although they have no money, they have land! 1 square kilometer and 1 merit point, that large area of barren land, just pull a piece and sell it to the Heavenly Palace, that is a rich asset.
When the European countries gritted their teeth and quoted a high price of 3,000 copies, the American delegation finally quoted their price: "5,000 copies!" β
The European delegations all smiled helplessly, they couldn't keep up.
"Ten thousand!" The polar bear delegation lightly doubled the number.
10,000 is 20W merit points, converted into land, that is, 20W square kilometers, a large area of frozen soil in Siberia, just pull a piece is enough for this number, there are not many people living in that place, even if it is sold, it is not distressing.
"Ahemβ"
Those people in the American delegation were choked to death at once, 20W merit points were converted into dollars, that is, 200 billion, and then counting the shrinkage of the Heavenly Temple, they estimated that they had to take out one trillion assets to be able to exchange these merit points.
Even if those big conglomerates go bankrupt, they may not be able to raise so many assets, after all, stocks and other things are not counted here in the Temple of Heavens.
"Why don't we sell some land too?" A cabinet member asked tentatively.
When the rest of the crowd heard this, they all looked at this cabinet member with the eyes of idiots.
Selling land? Whose land is it for sale? Which state land to sell?
Although the Heavenly Temple has determined that they are qualified to sell these lands, what is the real situation, don't you have a little pressure in your heart?
If you sell the land of any state here today, believe it or not, after you go back, those states will break away from the United States in a minute and become independent/independent for you?
Everyone in the Chinese delegation also frowned at this time, although they could use more merit points than the United States, but compared to the polar bear, the vast land of the rich land, they still couldn't compete.
One person leaned into the ear of the leader and whispered: "Chief, there are several deserts in the country with a large area, and the Heavenly Temple doesn't say anything about the terrain, these deserts can be ......."
"Hmm." The leader nodded, raised his hand and offered: "Fifteen thousand copies!" β
Hearing this offer, the American delegation that was frowning turned its head and looked over, brother dei, don't you think this price increase method is too fierce?
"Thirty thousand!"
Polar bears have shown with their substantive actions what it means to be rich and capricious.
Just when the Chinese delegation was about to continue bidding, Hao Chen on the second floor frowned slightly, this "Ye Family Quick Knife" is average, and there is no group bonus, although it is not a loss after the auction, it is not cheap, compared to the eighth auction item, it is far inferior.
"If you believe me, give up this lot and bid for the eighth lot with all your might!" Hao Chen directly transmitted the message to the Chinese delegation.
The Huaguo delegation, which was about to continue bidding, heard Hao Chen's transmission, and the expression of the person in charge moved, thinking of the previous psychological experts' speculation and analysis of Hao Chen's identity, he did not hesitate at all, and directly gave up continuing to bid.
Seeing this, Hao Chen nodded slightly, if the people in the delegation didn't believe him, then he wouldn't bother to pay attention to it, but since he believed him, he naturally wouldn't let them suffer.
Although Hao Chen is suspected of operating in the dark by doing this, he is willing, who can control it?
