……
Orange Energy Crystal!
Although the energy crystal in his hand is small, the faint orange and yellow color is genuine.
So far, Ling Hao only has 4 orange energy crystals.
The first one, which was picked up during a reconnaissance mission in the mountains, was darker in color.
The second and third were the night patrols and the battle of the monsters, and the two-headed python that was destroyed, one in both heads, was as small as a thumb, but the color was bright and pure.
The fourth and largest one is from the sea lizard that was killed by Ling Hao's blasting, and it has the best color.
Comparatively speaking, there are a lot of red energy crystals, there are 15 of various sizes, dull or blood-red, but their effectiveness can only be regarded as two orange energy crystals the size of a fingernail.
The grade of the energy crystal is one level apart, and the difference in efficiency is at least ten times, so no matter how small the orange energy crystal in his hand is, Ling Hao does not despise it.
"Uh...... Are you sure you want to sell? ”
"yes, what do you do if you don't sell it, it's not a valuable gem!"
Playing with life seems to want to make a move, he grew up as an orphan since he was a child, and he has a special complex for money.
Ling Hao hesitated, because sooner or later, the secret of the energy crystal would be known to the world, but there were no scientific researchers interested in it yet.
When the four legions discover that the secret of the Star Gate is difficult to solve after all, sooner or later they will invest a lot of manpower and material resources to carry out research in other aspects, including monsters.
At that time, the energy crystals contained in the bodies of the monsters with huge size and fierce combat power will inevitably be studied in depth, and the secrets will definitely be gone.
"What? You don't want to buy this? ”
"Buy, of course buy, it's just that the market price of red is basically clear, but you are orange, I'm afraid that the bid is too low, and you will regret it when the time comes!"
"Cut!" He waved his hand and said bluntly: "I never knew how to write the word 'regret'." ”
As he spoke, he stuffed the energy crystal into Ling Hao's hand with his life, looking like Ling Hao was not selling.
The two of them talked a lot, and the others could naturally hear it.
Soon, Deng Hua and Wu Tian also took out one large and one small red energy crystal to join in the fun.
"Hey, Captain, look at me, I'm big and red, I took a lot of eyes to dig it up!"
Deng Hua handed a blood-red energy crystal to Ling Hao, and told how he was coaxed by Quan Lian and found it from the stump of a slain tyrannosaurus.
Coincidentally, Wu Tian was the main anti-armor force in the original army, and he used an anti-tank missile to blast a crocodile beast, and its shape, size, color and purity were almost exactly the same as the one Ling Hao got on Crescent Island.
Of course, the others were not so lucky, and even if they did, they didn't pick it up.
Now that Ling Hao has posted on the Internet to buy, the price can be worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars, so angry that Qian Wei, Hu Hai and other team members stomped their feet, complaining about why they 'turned a blind eye and didn't pick it up' in the first place.
Soon, Ling Hao bought Wu Tian, Deng Hua and the three energy crystals of Destiny for 6,500 yuan, 4,000 yuan and 10,000 yuan respectively.
Although he spent money to buy it, Ling Hao didn't plan to use the three of them, but only kept it for them temporarily, because the value of the energy crystal was far more than that.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and with Deng Hua and others doing live advertising, the entire team had less than two hours, and the news that Ling Hao had purchased the crystal stone in the monster's body had become a rare thing known to the whole team.
The stones growing in the body of the fierce and violent monster can be sold for thousands or even tens of thousands of prices, which really makes many people's hearts moved.
Before returning to the base of the mother island, several people had already reached a purchase agreement with Ling Hao.
Similarly, Ling Hao's post quickly received thousands of replies in various languages, and soon the post was pinned to the top by the administrator, surpassing FK's purchase post and becoming the number one hot post on the forum.
Before evening, the four teams left the extinct volcanic island on a transport plane, and returned to the base of the mother island with a relaxed and happy mood, and as soon as Ling Hao got off the plane, he was informed that there was a visitor.
The former mechanized infantry division headquarters building is still the same guest room.
Li Hongjian had been waiting for a full two hours, this was the second time he had entered the 'Savage Wasteland' plane, mainly to negotiate business with the General Headquarters of the Huaxia Legion.
The formation of the new-style armed forces is forced by the domestic economic situation and other pressures, and the funds that can be obtained are not much, so there is a large funding gap, and the method of bank borrowing and issuing bonds is not advisable, and the best way is to cooperate directly with civilian capital.
After discussing with Qin Ming for more than an hour, Li Hongjian was already physically and mentally exhausted, but when he saw Ling Hao push the door in, he immediately showed a kind smile.
"Nephew, I heard that you went to test your new equipment?"
Ling Hao nodded and said, "Nicknamed 'Metal Skeleton', a kind of combat auxiliary equipment, Uncle Li came to me this time, it should be because of Senior Commander Qin, right?" ”
"Hmph, let's talk about it later!"
Li Hongjian snorted coldly, obviously having a bad impression of Qin Ming, and smiled and asked Ling Hao to sit down next to him, stuffing all the exquisite snacks that were rarely brought in this time into Ling Hao's arms.
"Hurry up and eat, this is all carefully prepared by your aunt, originally said to bring any cooked food, I am afraid that the plane will have to be delayed......"
Every word reveals Uncle Li's care, the soft and refreshing pastries are eaten in his mouth, and Ling Hao is even sweeter in his heart.
When Ling Hao had eaten almost enough, Li Hongjian told the story.
"It's true that I came here for this business, but what I didn't expect was that the conditions they put forward were too harsh!"
Qin Ming was the secret negotiator of the Huaxia Legion, and he negotiated directly with Li Hongjian, and when he met Ling Hao by chance before, it was just a probing.
Ling Hao has a good temper, but Li Hongjian, who has been in the mall for a long time, is easy to bully, 200 billion, Li Hongjian bluntly said on the spot that the legion is a lion with a big mouth.
"Senior Qin is also anxious, Uncle Li, you should take care of it a little more!"
Ling Hao put away the food box and patted Li Hongjian's back to let him dissipate his anger and not be so angry that he had a heart attack.
"I know he's anxious!" Li Hongjian muttered, turned around and looked at Ling Hao seriously, and said, "You may not know what is going on here, the original world is already in turmoil, and every day in the capital and major cities of the four major powers, there are at least a dozen demonstrations of millions of people......
Li Hongjian was straightforward and fast-talking, and in a few sentences, Ling Hao knew how much public opinion pressure the four major legions were under.
"Then you won't refuse to cooperate, will you?" Ling Hao asked rhetorically.
Li Hongjian grinned: "How come? Our group will not make enemies with money, I proposed two sets of plans to Commander Qin, the first is to pay interest loans, our group borrows 20 billion yuan or even more to the general headquarters, as long as they return the principal with interest on time. ”
Ling Hao frowned and shook his head directly, because it was impossible for the legion to be rich in the future, and a larger scale meant greater expenses, and cash flow would always be the tightest.
"The second plan, if you don't borrow money, then you can compensate through resources, the savage wasteland is temporarily full of monsters and dangers, but I think there is definitely no shortage of coal, oil and minerals, so, you know."
Next, Ling Hao and Li Hongjian discussed this topic for nearly half an hour, until the end of the meeting time.
“…… The plan is so decided for the time being, and the other is that the delegation organized by Uncle Li after returning must be reliable and have excellent professional quality. ”
"I know that I will definitely send the most effective men, and there will be no problems!"
Ling Hao nodded and stood up, suddenly thought of something, and said with a smile: "Uncle Li, are you rich?" ”
"Huh?" Li Hongjian was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Do you know that I never bring cash, can I use a bank card?" ”
"How many?" Ling Hao asked anxiously, for fear that the funds for the acquisition of energy crystals would not be enough.
Li Hongjian took out his wallet and handed them to Ling Hao with a Swiss bank gold card and a domestic bank savings card, both of which were convenient for business trips.
"You take it all, I can't remember how much money is in it, but it's definitely enough for you to spend for a while, I'll save some more when I go back!"
While the two were talking, the gendarmes knocked on the door to remind them that it was time.
"Uncle Li, go back and ask Auntie for you!"
"You also take care, don't work too the battlefield, run away if you can't win, do you hear?"
Ling Hao nodded reluctantly, not wanting to argue with Uncle Li, so he left the reception room with the food box.
As soon as he got out of the office building of the division headquarters, Ling Hao went straight to the public activity area on the base of the mother island.
The four major legions were stationed on the same island, and a non-military area of activity was built in the middle of the island, so that officers and soldiers of the four major legions could enter and leave freely as long as they did not carry weapons.
It was the first time for Ling Hao to come, around the circular square, there were not many shops around, and they were all opened by the logistics departments of the four major legions, just to meet the basic needs of the soldiers.
Therefore, the public activity area is said to be exclusively for entertainment, but because of the lack of private capital to enter, in addition to shopping malls, cinemas, indoor billiard halls and other decent entertainment venues, there is nothing special, such as foot sauna.
Banks are not difficult to find, and in order to facilitate the shopping of officers and soldiers of various regiments, ATMs of major banks of various countries are placed in a shop area of about 20 square meters.
Withdrawals are also very special, because the interstellar gate blocks any signal exchange between the two space-time planes, so when Ling Hao inserts the card and enters the password correctly, he cannot withdraw money immediately, but has to wait patiently for at least 2 minutes.
The cash withdrawal machine will quickly transmit the data information of the bank card request transaction to the vicinity of the stargate, and after loading the data into a special storage medium, the medium will be electrocatapulted through the stargate by electromagnetic acceleration, and will be captured by the instruments of the original world, and then the information will be read.
The currency and amount of the requested transaction will be quickly checked with the bank database, and if the balance in the card is sufficient, the funds that are about to be withdrawn will be frozen immediately, and then sent back to the data packet, which will be passed on again and handed over to the ATM for processing.
In short, because of the delay of Stargate, the transaction delay is very serious.
Just to check the balance in the card, Ling Hao spent five minutes, but fortunately, in Uncle Li's 'small treasury' Swiss bank card, the balance was several million dollars, and Ling Haobai was not allowed to wait.
Perhaps the four major legions also took into account the delay in such transactions, and it was too difficult for officers and soldiers who were in a hurry to spend money, so the one-time withdrawal limit was set very generously.
Ling Hao did not hesitate to withdraw 100,000 US dollars directly, and then paid to exchange a lot of euros, rubles, etc. according to the real-time exchange rate of the day, so as to facilitate the next large-scale acquisition of energy crystals.
