Chapter 7: Negotiations
The words of the Universe Merchant Civilization made Ren Tao and Qi Xiaoniao's sneer even worse, and Yao Yuan also saw that the Universe Merchant Civilization must have deceived in Fang Cai's information, or rather, it must have been deceived by extremely valuable materials in it, but it was fooled by it at an ultra-low price, this is the truth that Fang Cai's information is talking like this now.
Since this is the case, Yao Yuan is not worried or panicked, because interests are interests, whether it is a low-level animal, a high-level animal, the earth, or the universe, only interests are the highest standard that drives everything.
When there is a stake, then the trade between the two sides can continue, and the alien merchants have shown their desire to benefit from some of the minerals on the Hope, which means that the human side has enough time to sort out what the minerals are, and also to think about the next transaction.
"Okay, you should tell me now, where did you see these things, that alien universe merchant civilization hides something, and some minerals are worth much more than they give." Yao Yuan looked at Ren Tao and Qi Xiaoniao at this time and asked.
This time, Qi Xiaoniao didn't speak, he just looked at Ren Tao and smirked, Ren Tao was very helpless, he plucked out his ears and said: "It's actually very simple, you can see it in terms of the materials and prices they sent." β
Yao Yuan also used the Thinker skill, and after looking at the price list sent back by the alien merchant for a long time, he didn't see any difference, so he asked curiously, "What is it that makes the two of you see the difference?" My thinker skills are not as good as yours, you are authentic, I don't see it...... Where? If you see it, tell me. β
Ren Tao's helpless expression became more serious, he said that I was lazy, but he still walked to Yao Yuan's side and said: "Look carefully at those prices, the price in front and the price in the back, as well as the amount of the substance we hope to have, it can be seen, although the price is fluctuating, but basically it is not much different from our material storage, I mean the total quantity, for example, we have the most iron elemental substances, so its price is the lowest, and then our platinum is very small, and the value is higher." β
"And then there are the radioactive minerals, which is basically the case, except for these few, the radioactive minerals we found from the nascent star system, the quantity and value of these kinds are not equal, such as these associated radioactive minerals, their number is extreme, this one I still remember, after we purify it, there are only more than two hundred kilograms in total, but the price is lower than the rest of the main vein radioactive minerals, it is here that makes us wonder, why other minerals are basically determined by the quantity of the price, only these few exceptions?"
Ren Tao shrugged his shoulders and said: "Then there is the next biological genetic information, the price given by the alien merchant is too high, so high that it has exceeded our expectations, although each planet and the life form of civilization will be different, genes, and the essence may even be different, but this price is too high, of course, it may also be that the universe attaches great importance to these genetic maps, but this still can't explain why its price is so high, understand, this may just be what they are covering, so what are they covering?" The price they give to some extremely valuable substances is too low, so when some substances that are not judged by weight, such as living organisms or something, they let go of the price, so that it is possible to explain the previous sense of abruptness. β
Yao Yuan also reacted at this time, his thinker skill had already listed these clues, and he immediately said, "That's right, this feels very abrupt! Sure enough, it's fucking no businessmen, even the businessmen in the universe have such a face...... But it's okay, at least they don't know that we have understood that the value of these materials is much higher than now, and maybe even some peerless treasure is possible, now that we have the initiative and the upper hand, this group of annihilators must be squeezed well. β
That being said, but Yao Yuan can't make very excessive remarks, after all, this is not dealing with businessmen who are also humans, but dealing with alien civilizations that are stronger in science and technology than humans, if the language problem turns into war or something, this is his biggest failure as the current leader of mankind.
"Tell them that we are very poor in supplies and really can't afford to trade, so let's end this deal."
After Yao Yuan said this, he was also nervous in his heart, but he still chose to believe in Ren Tao and Qi Xiaoniao, and also believed in his own judgment, now human beings seem to be completely blind people who can't see, hear, or feel, this is the only place that can take advantage, and only in this way can he get the technology of the Fifth Industrial Revolution and various information technologies, so he really has to take a risk.
The results came out quickly, and the small spaceship quickly sent back a message: "We will help the weak nascent cosmic civilization, with your existing barren materials, we can exchange it for a Fifth Industrial Revolution technology, remember the great Cosmic Merchant Alliance, you can buy anything, you can sell anything." β
At this time, all the speculations have been confirmed, everyone present on the human side is in a good mood, everyone is celebrating, not to mention anything else, just the current negotiation results can get at least one fifth industrial revolution technology, and that curvature navigation technology is also OK, because after this technology is originally obtained, it is likely to generate an opportunity, maybe in the next few decades or hundreds of years, mankind will completely enter the fifth industrial revolution.
However, there are too many things that human beings need, and Yao Yuan and others are not at all clear about the price of the materials they have, so it is naturally impossible to agree to this, as the so-called sky-high asking price, sitting on the ground to pay back, what is needed at this time is patience and, and this situation naturally does not need to be worried by Yao Yuan, there are a large number of elites on the Hope, who are familiar with business, and there are not a few talents who are familiar with the operation of the business environment, and now the matter should be solved by them.
In fact, this group of people is the most disadvantaged people on the Hope, they are not proficient in all kinds of scientific and technological knowledge, and they do not know how to achieve some technical work, and the business they know best and are most proficient in is basically impossible to achieve on the Hope, hawkers or something...... At most, you can only be a hawker who sells food or small things, which is really overkill.
And only at this time, their value was finally reflected, more than a dozen people who were most proficient in business environment and capital negotiation from their resumes were selected, and they negotiated with the highest limit of the other party's tone and negotiation at the beginning, Yao Yuan and others were still standing in place, waiting for the results of the negotiation to appear, but when it came to the real discussion, it was actually the discussion of some small people in the market, and they were all some nonsense that sounded very simple, and these words have been entangled all the time, and the rest of the people were simply bored to listen to, And as time passed, everyone began to yawn.
Seeing this, Yao Yuan divided these business people into several shifts, and also divided the personnel on duty, as well as the combat and defense personnel of the Hope, into several shifts, and then everyone began to take turns to sleep and rest.
When Yao Yuan was sleeping, Wang Guangzheng began to replace everything, and he slept very vigilantly, and any disturbance could make him wake up immediately, but there was no sudden attack in the following time, and the whole negotiation went on for more than two days.
So far, it is completely this group of business elites who have taken the initiative, and the price of exchange has also changed from a piece of Fifth Industrial Revolution technology to a piece of Fifth Industrial Revolution technology, plus a series of cosmic information, and according to this group of business elites, this price is just the beginning, as long as the negotiations continue, the alien businessmen will put more and more prices, maybe in the end they can get everything that human beings want.
Could it be that those radioactive minerals of human beings are really so precious that they make the cosmic merchants suffer so much?
But the answer given by the business elite is extremely strange, they don't feel that the minerals of human beings are valuable or anything, but that these cosmic merchant civilizations are very naΓ―ve, uh, to put it simply, they don't seem to have any experience in negotiation, and they don't even have a very clear understanding of capital itself, in a simple way, they are really like a group of dealers who buy and sell rags, and they have nothing to do with the word businessmen, so they will lose in the negotiations.
This kind of answer is really puzzling and curious, and among all of them, only Ren Tao was slightly stunned, but immediately reverted to that casual and boring expression, and the performance between this stunned was too short, so that the people around him didn't see what he did at all.
In this way, this information negotiation lasted for seven days, and in the end, when the price developed to three Fifth Industrial Revolution technologies and all the cosmic information, it seemed that the cosmic merchant civilization had also discovered that something was wrong, and they began to refuse to continue the negotiation, but what was strange was that they seemed to be more anxious than the human side, and they did not intend to end the transaction, but the small spaceship went back and forth to the mother ship, constantly transmitting and receiving information, obviously discussing something.
On the eighth day of contact between humans and the alien merchant civilization, the alien merchant civilization finally made a most important decision, inviting the leader of the human side to lead a team to their mothership for the final trade negotiation, and at the same time, a delegation of no more than ten people will be sent to the human mothership to have a final negotiation with the humans, and the outcome of this negotiation will determine the success of the transaction between the two parties.
Then, after discussing for a long time, Yao Yuan did not participate in the team to go to the alien mothership, but was led by the eagle, Ren Tao and Qi Xiaoniao, and the other twenty interstellar soldiers, and half of the business elites.
"This negotiation is very important, Ren Tao, Qi Xiaoniao, this is our first contact with an alien civilization, good will or malicious? Harvest or war, it's all up to you......"
Then, the invitation began......
