"Where are we going this time?"

Li Mo felt that this time it didn't seem that he was going to participate in any hype show or banquet.

Sutu spat out a few words meaningfully: "Auction." ”

"Auction?" Li Mo couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and the first thing that came to mind was the episodes that often appeared in fantasy novels.

"What am I going to auction for, do you want me to go up and flex my muscles?" Li Mo said a cold joke with an expressionless face.

Su Tu laughed appreciatively twice, and teased: "I'm afraid that if you go up, you won't be able to come down, and the circle of the imperial capital will start to circulate that night: 'The news that the new human fool has been auctioned for a sky-high price'." ”

Li Mo looked at Su Tu with a cold face, without the slightest intention of laughing.

Su Tu knew Li Mo's straightforward personality, and he didn't care, he clicked on the holographic screen in the car, displayed a list in front of Li Mo's eyes, and then explained to him: "These are the list of auction items, except for a few mysterious objects in the finale, the others are on it, you see what you are interested in." ”

When Li Mo heard this, he knew that Su Tu was going to squander, but in Li Mo's impression, no matter how valuable the things at the auction were, they were just some luxuries, and they were not attractive to the recruiters at all.

Although he was not interested, Li Mo still looked at the list, and after a few glances, his expression immediately became serious.

Noticing the change in Li Mo's expression, Su Tu smiled: "You can see it, the things that will appear in this auction are not all luxury goods, and some things may be useful for you new humans." ”

Not only is it useful, when Li Mo saw that thing, he suddenly had the idea of taking it down at any cost.

Each item on the list has two price tags, one of which is the starting price and the other is the estimated price of the Thornflower family's in-house professionals.

Li Mo asked, "How much money can you mobilize?" ”

Su Tu thought for a moment and replied: "I started to prepare funds when I got this auction list, and now I can use about 1o billion uranium coins. ”

The currency of the empire is worth more than 1o times more than the euro in the world in which Li Mo lives, and if converted into the familiar yuan, 1o billion uranium coins are equivalent to about 1.5 billion yuan, which is definitely an unimaginable huge amount of money.

Li Mo glanced at the starting price and the estimated transaction price again, and there was a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart, he had a hunch that this auction would definitely not be as simple as it appeared on the surface.

At this time, Su Tu said: "Your current name has been circulated in the inner circle of the imperial capital, and it is a big hit in this Hunger Games, and many powerful people are willing to support you, I have roughly calculated that at least 500 million uranium coins can be raised in your name." ”

In other words, there are a total of 1.5 billion uranium coins available, and Li Mo, who got this result, is a little more settled in his heart, even if other people also get the strong support of the family, the funds that can be mobilized will definitely not be more than 1.5 billion.

After entering the auction hall, Su Tu and Li Mo did not go to the hall to crowd with others, but walked into a private room led by the waiter, where they could get the picture of the auction site in real time through the guò holographic screen and bid remotely.

Li Mo sat in the box, looking at the hall that was gradually filling the place on the holographic screen, as if he thought of something, and suddenly said to Su Tu: "What is the finale, even the Thorn Flower family can't figure it out?" ”

Su Tu shook his head and said: "There are at least 5 families in the empire whose strength is no less than that of the Thorn Flower Family, and the others are slightly inferior, if we can know, others will definitely be able to know, so the Imperial Capital Auction House will not have to be mixed." ”

Li Mo had expected this answer for a long time, but he always had some concerns in his heart, so he couldn't help but ask more.

didn't wait long, the lights in the hall suddenly dimmed, and the people sitting in the hall also consciously stopped talking, watching a well-dressed and meticulous middle-aged man walk to the stage.

The auction rules and procedures of the empire are not much different from what Li Mo knew, and after a few simple polite words, the host directly introduced the topic and displayed the first auction item in front of everyone's eyes.

The first auction item is a starship called "Enterprise", which is said to be the car of Colonel Picard, the most famous interstellar pioneer of the empire half a century ago, and has a glorious record of opening up dozens of location star fields, which is an antique starship worth collecting.

As soon as this starship appeared, it caused an auction boom, but in a few breaths, the price was pushed to more than ten times the starting price, and it is still growing rapidly.

Li Mo couldn't mention this kind of collection at all, but Su Tu watched it with relish, and couldn't help but participate in a few bids, but the price was quickly overshadowed, so he could only give up stupidly.

The next few auction items were either historic antique starships or weapons, or priceless jewelry ores, all in all, they could not arouse Li Mo's interest, Li Mo glanced at the auction list and knew that what he wanted had not yet appeared so soon, so he turned his attention to the guests at the venue.

Because he wandered around the circle of powerful people in the imperial capital for several days in a row, Li Mo did remember the names and appearances of many powerful people, and his eyes swept roughly over the venue, and more than a dozen people he had seen appeared.

"Huh?" Suddenly, Li Mo's gaze locked on a middle-aged man with a rough face and a cold expression.

Li Mo squinted his eyes slightly and stared at the holographic screen carefully for a long time, and then affirmed the conjecture in his heart.

This man is a conscript!

The empire is a unified country for all mankind, and there are people of all shapes, and this man with a rough face does not have the slightest special feature on the surface, but Li Mo can see the unique temperament of the conscriptor from him at a glance.

In the space where death is everywhere, those who can survive and enter the difficult world have experienced countless life and death crises, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are warriors who will not die in a hundred battles. After entering the empire, Li Mo had seen and fought with many cyborgs, and the strength of these cyborgs was indeed not to be underestimated, and some were even stronger than ordinary senior recruiters. However, these people lack the temperament cultivated after the hardships of life and death of the recruiter, although the imperial people can't see it, but Li Mo, who is also a recruiter, can indeed see it at a glance.

After seeing this rugged man, Li Mo searched for it more carefully in the venue, and sure enough, after a careful inspection, two other recruiters appeared.

Li Mo didn't care too much about these recruits, and in the case that he couldn't use most of the skills without equipment, even the evolutionary Li Mo was sure that he would retreat, and the average senior recruiter was not taken seriously by him.

Moreover, these recruiters will appear in the hall, which means that they are joining some second- and third-rate family forces, which are far from the Thorn Flower family.

At this time, Li Mo saw that the rough man whispered a few words to the person sitting next to him, and the man pressed the bid button in front of him, and the bidding price on the big screen instantly became 1ooo million uranium coins.

Currently on auction is a small cannon-shaped weapon, with a streamlined casing and a dark gold color that gives it a sense of extraordinary power.

Li Mo glanced at the introduction, this is a single heavy weapon called a phase cannon, which has the power to break through any light protective shield, it is a limited production type, and it is not widely configured in the army, so it is difficult for ordinary people to get one.

When the price peaked to 1ooo million uranium coins, the field fell silent, and when the countdown on the big screen reached the last 2 seconds, Li Mo suddenly slapped the bid button in front of him and entered the price of 11ooo million uranium coins.

The rugged man seemed to think that something was about to arrive, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw the price suddenly increase at the last second.

"You're interested in this thing?" Su Tu was also quite surprised when he saw Li Mo bidding, he thought that this barbarian would only rely on ** strength to fight, but he didn't expect to be interested in this kind of thermal weapon.

Li Mo replied casually: "It's nothing, it's fun to shoot." ”

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, he stopped bidding, but watched as the phase cannon was auctioned off at the price of 12oo million uranium coins.

Then Li Mo made several more bids, each time the object of the bid was some rare weapons of destruction, and due to his intervention, the final transaction price of these weapons was about 2% higher than expected.

"The situation is not right, it seems that someone is deliberately raising the price with us, so that we will not be able to get even 1/3 of the weapons in this way."

After taking the things down for the fourth time at a high price on a budget, the rugged man finally sensed that something was wrong, and said sternly to his companion beside him.

"I can't help it, the family can't give me more funds, let's take down as many goals as possible."

That young elite who is also a big family in the empire is full of distress, even if you show up this kind of price increase, you can't do anything about it, you can only consider yourself unlucky.

Li Mo's price increase was just a small episode, and he didn't care too much about it, just habitually suppressed potential opponents, and when the auction item he wanted finally appeared, he forgot about the rough man and the price increase.

"The value of the next lot is extraordinary, and it should have been a hidden lot for the finale, but because the owner provided it too late, it could only be placed in the ordinary lot. Okay, I won't talk about too much nonsense, now the floor price is 1ooo million uranium coins, everyone please bid! ”

The host's words were fast, and he didn't introduce too much information about this auction item at all, but directly entered the bidding link without complying with the auction rules, but despite this, when he announced the start of the bidding, the price on the big screen was growing and changing rapidly

No one sent moon cakes to winter melon, winter melon is so sad, obviously Wuren moon cakes don't need money
