Chapter Forty-Eight: A Beautiful Vase
"You must know that hundreds of years ago, energy stones were the mainstream use of interstellar mechas." Lei Sheng told the story.
Energy stone is mined from natural ore, which can provide "life" for mechanical tools, but after many years of mining, energy stone is a non-renewable thing, a large amount of consumption can not keep up with the output, scarce is expensive, and gradually only rich people can consume it, plus the mecha is controlled, slowly, energy stone out of the market.
"But nowadays, many thermal weapons on the market also need to use energy stones to activate," Lei Sheng took a sip of lemonade and moistened her dry lips, "So someone has researched the star energy stone instead of the energy stone." ”
"Star Energy Stone...... Is it artificial? "Bai Mingluo is a little clear.
I don't talk about this stuff in the classroom books.
Lei Sheng nodded: "Because it is a new invention, it is not popular in small places, and Baixing Academy, as an example, added star energy stone to the exam questions, also to make it more acceptable to everyone."
Bai Mingluo nodded to indicate that he had learned.
"The star energy stones are all fine, I have some compiled information there, but it is not comprehensive, and there are some hearsay, you don't mind taking it and looking at it." Lei Sheng had a smile in his eyes.
"Wow, really, thank you first!" Bai Mingluo also smiled and bent his eyes, and the corners of his lips were very pleasing.
Lei Sheng hadn't met such a straightforward and cute little guy for a long time, but he took a little more care: "There will be an auction tomorrow afternoon, among which there are star energy stones for sale, how about the senior sister take you to open your eyes?"
And this kind of good thing! Bai Mingluo's eyes lit up, and he praised Lei Sheng's kindness and beauty, which made Lei Sheng laugh, and the two of them added friends, and Bai Mingluo went back with Lei Sheng to get the information.
The next day, Bai Mingluo wore an elegant dress to the appointment.
Since she said that she was going to the auction, she couldn't embarrass Lei Sheng by wearing too shabby, people in those places are used to watching people put dishes on their plates.
"It's really beautiful for a school girl to wear like this." Lei Sheng was wearing a neutral dress with a lot of material, and when he saw the white and bright fall of the skirt, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
What a beautiful vase, where is it like a warrior who will punch someone else?
"Senior sister is also very handsome!" Bai Mingluo took over the conversation, and his eyes swept over her lily of the valley earrings.
Wouldn't that be a portable device too? It's pretty good. She thought to herself.
Lei Sheng took her into the auction hall, which is the most well-known auction house on Blue Star - Fengxing Auction House.
Bai Mingluo saw that everyone else needed to show something like an invitation letter to enter, and Lei Sheng just walked over and bowed slightly to the woman who was entertaining at the door, and then swaggered in, and without being led by others, Lei Sheng went to the box on the third floor and found a room called "Treasure Pavilion".
The box was beautifully decorated, the incense belonging to sandalwood emanated from the furniture, and Bai Mingluo saw the lily of the valley flower placed next to the table, which was very fresh.
"Sit down." Lei Sheng motioned for Bai Mingluo to sit down, and went to fetch the teapot to make tea.
Bai Mingluo was not polite, and sat down in front of her, looking out of the window from this position, she could clearly see the whole picture of the auction downstairs.
If you want to come to this box, you won't easily develop it from others, right? Bai Mingluo raised his eyebrows, took the tea handed over by Lei Sheng, and concealed his curiosity.
Since Lei Sheng didn't say it, she didn't bother to ask.
The two sat and drank tea for a while, and the auction below was ready to begin.
"Welcome to the auction site of Fengxing Auction House, I am the auctioneer Honghong!" A girl in an elegant red dress came on stage generously, and even the fluff on her face could be seen clearly under the screen of the high-definition camera.
Honghong recited the purpose of the popular auction house as usual, and after a hot end, she brought out the first auction item.
"Epic weapons? It's that big. Bai Mingluo was amazed.
"Although it is epic, there are requirements for mecha configuration, and no matter how good the quality is, it is useless to match the mecha." Lei Sheng said the key at a glance.
Sure enough, after Honghong introduced the advantages and disadvantages of the weapon, the auction hall was quiet for a few moments, and there were only a few people who began to bid for it.
After that, a few things that were not uncommon were auctioned, but everyone was not in a hurry, after all, after the hot scene, it was a good show.
"Knock knock." There was a knock on the door.
"Enter."
Lei Sheng was not surprised that someone knocked on the door, and when the words fell, a waiter walked in with a pastry, and the smile on his face was very sincere: "Miss, the owner of the door knows that you are coming, and specially called me to send over the rose cake, which is newly baked."
The rose cake is white and made in the shape of a rose, and it is faintly visible that there are rose petals mixed inside.
Roses have been produced in very little in recent years, let alone edible roses. Bai Mingluo glanced at the pastry and had another understanding of Lei Sheng's identity.
When Lei Sheng heard this, the expression on his face couldn't help but ease a little: "Thank you, and thank Aunt Hua for me."
"Miss is polite, then I'll go down first, and call me if you need anything."
The waiter came and went quickly, and Lei Sheng didn't explain, beckoning Bai Mingluo to come and taste the freshly baked rose cake.
The aroma of rose cake is fragrant, and when I take a sip, the sweetness and floral aroma burst in my mouth, and the rustling taste is still warm, not choking at all.
Although Bai Mingluo is not good at appetite and has no requirements for food, it is the first time Bai Mingluo has eaten such a delicious thing.
"It's delicious, today is the light of the senior sister~" Bai Mingluo ate happily, his inky eyes quietly bent up, and his small mouth was raised, like a coquettish little sparrow, tilting his head to sell cuteness, tickling people's hearts, and energetic.
If Lei Sheng used to be just because of the care of his classmates and his appreciation for her, then now he really regards Bai Mingluo as a sister.
After all, she has wanted to have an obedient younger sibling since she was a child......
Lei Sheng thought of this, his expression was slightly stunned, and when he saw the pastry residue at the corner of Bai Ming's mouth, he took out a handkerchief and wiped it off for her, and said softly: "How big is it, how to eat is not particular."
Originally, she could have been a good sister.
"Anyway, there are no outsiders, who will the image show you?" Bai Mingluo didn't care at all, and picked up the pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.
Delicious!
Lei Sheng bent his eyes and did not speak.
Bai Mingluo even felt that she had a very good temper, and she was like this to a school girl she had just met, what a gentle person she should be!
"The next auction is a rare gem in the world, brought back from the bottom of the volcano by the Pavilion Master of the Fengxing Auction House himself-" Honghong's voice was high, and he reached out and pulled off the black cloth covering the treasure, revealing his true face, "Heartmelting Stone!"
Bai Mingluo squinted his eyes and saw that the red gem was polished into a diamond-shaped shape, and the gem in the screen was not suppressed by the resolution, but made people see the liquid swaying in the gem more clearly.
