~~   The items auctioned are all-encompassing. From powerful battleships to the latest light energy weapons, from scarce materials and commodities to billions of basic resources. As long as the items that can be evaluated through the auction can appear on this trading platform.

Of course, the number of weapons and warships is not as large as the "silver zebras". They are also very few in species, far from being able to allow the federal government to take closed or regulatory measures against them.

What surprised Zhao Yi was that the auction items even included control of a city on a certain planet. The auctioneer claimed that no matter who the buyer was, he could help him gain a unique dominance.

Being rich is a wonderful thing.

He shook his head lightly. His attention began to focus on auction items No. 23.

Those are two sets of SFD76 type food processors, which are commonly known as the gum biscuit production line.

"The base price is 150,000 federal standard currency. Each price increase must not be less than 5,000. Now, the bidding begins-"

With the auctioneer's gesture, the holographic information of the auction items also appeared on the jiguang holographic screen. Soon, round cards marked with different prices were also raised in the hall. A few minutes later, the selling price of the two production assembly lines had exceeded 200,000.

This kind of thing is impossible to appear in the venues at the "A" level or above of the "Eliot" auction house. However, in order to take into account the hosts of "Eliot" at all levels, they do put the classification standards to the extreme. They are not only targeting high-end people, but also targeting the profit-taking groups, lower-level wealthy people. For example, now, hundreds of thousands of trading items can also appear on the "Eliot" auction platform.

Zhao Yi reached out and picked up the round sign on the table. He was about to raise it, but he saw the girl next to him smile at him: "How many targets are you going to issue? I'll shout for you."

This is also part of the auction house service.

“Twenty-one thousand.”

“Twenty-two thousand.”

“Twenty-two-five thousand…”

In the end, the bid fell steadily to the 250,000 figure. Zhao Yi also successfully got what he wanted. When a waiter in a black tuxedo respectfully placed the nano-information card marked "No. 23" in front of him, the well-behaved girl was like a kitten, obediently curled up between his arms.

"The following is the auction No. 24. - a piece of exquisitely crafted blue diamond jewelry. The base price is 500,000 federal standard currency, and the price increase shall not be less than 10,000 per time."

Then, the waiter brought out a round table locked with a transparent porcelain cover. The utensil placed in the middle was the size of an egg and the shape was not very regular. After being inlaid with silver, it formed a necklace of diamond jewelry.

Looking at the necklace that emitted a faint blue luster on the table, Zhao Yi felt a little stunned. Even his fingers were trembling slightly.

He is so familiar with this thing.

If it weren't for the difference in appearance, he would even think: this is the mysterious blue crystal that Sidrik gave him before his death.

He gently stroked the crystal plaque on his chest through his clothes and took a deep breath. He signaled the girl sitting beside him to raise the number plate high.

"Five hundred thousand."

"Five hundred and twenty thousand."

“Five Thirty Thirty Two Thousand…”

The price rise is not as strong as expected. Zhao Yi noticed that most people who hold bids to bid with female companions. Gems are born with irresistible lethality for women.

This is not malicious competition. For this blue crystal, women are addicted to its value and beauty. But they really understand the preciousness of it.

A special device that can increase mental power is definitely the dream treasure of all mental power abilities.

Maybe this is the secret that I only know.

Shaking his head, feeling helpless, he raised the license plate in his hand again.

"Five hundred and sixty thousand."

"Six hundred thousand."

"Seventy-five thousand. Are there anyone who bids higher?"

Looking at the license plate raised high in Zhao Yi's hand, the auctioneer couldn't help but feel a bit of surprise on his face. Although diamonds are expensive goods on ancient earth, they are not uncommon in the universe. Except for the occasional part of brightly colored diamonds that will be made into jewelry for sale, most of them will be acquired by the military and industrial alliances. In contrast, its normal value is not as stable as gold.

This blue crystal can be sold at a price of 750,000 yuan, which is beyond expectations.

He shouted twice in a row but no one answered the price. It really matched the evaluation value of the necklace. Just as the auctioneer was about to drop the wooden hammer in his hand, he suddenly raised a small round sign from the seat in the back row of the hall.

"Seventy-seven thousand-"

Zhao Yi raised his brows, his face whirled and returned to normal. He turned his head and looked in the direction of holding the sign. He saw a wrinkled old man with dark spots, wrinkled skin and white hair, hugging a girl with a 16- or seven-year-old age difference, and a delicate face. Although the two were at least 100 years old, it did not prevent the old man from squeezing and pinching the girl's delicate face and chest.

"Baby, do you like this necklace? I'll buy it and give it to you. Let's have fun when you go back. Remember, you must give me a son--"

Although the voice was not loud, Zhao Yi clearly heard the old man's words in the girl's ear with the spread of consciousness energy.

It can be seen that although he is very disgusted with the other party's actions, the girl's eyes also shine with expectation. Expensive jewelry is a treasure that women dream of at any time.

"Eight hundred thousand-"

Zhao Yi's eyes trembled. A mental fluctuation that could not be detected by the naked eye suddenly rushed towards the direction where the old man was.

A strong mental shock is enough to kill people. Zhao Yi does not want to kill people, and it is even more impossible to kill people in this situation. What he released was just a slight shock. Its effect only made the other party's thinking consciousness temporarily fall into a state of numbness. A few minutes later, when the old man woke up again, the blue crystal necklace on the auction table had already been put into Zhao Tian's pocket.

At this moment, in a private room on the west side of the second floor, a man in a black robe with a completely shadow suddenly stood up, held the railing with both hands, and looked at everyone in the hall downstairs with a sharp look.

"Alfred, what's wrong?"

asked another man sitting in the shadow.

"It seems that some people are using mental shock. However, the spread is very small."

Alfred, who walked out of the shadow, had an extremely handsome face. Coupled with his soft and beautiful blonde hair under the light, he attracted several ladies sitting nearby to send out their dreams.

"seem?"

The man in the shadows spoke obviously a little dissatisfied.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Seeing this, Alfred quickly turned around and pointed at Zhao Yi's back sitting in the hall: "It can be confirmed that the source of the shock just now was this person."

"oh?"

The man suddenly became interested: "Can you be sure of this person's mental ability level?"

Alfred shook his head awkwardly: "It's just an ordinary shock wave, and it's impossible to make a judgment for the time being."

"Interesting. A mental power genius will actually compete with an ordinary person for a diamond? Haha! However, this person seems to be different from the information introduction."

As he said that, the man picked up the auction introduction form on the table: "Have you done relevant investigations in all the auction items in this issue?"

"We have detailed information on every item sold." Alfred responded respectfully.

"Including that necklace?"

"certainly."

"Well! Take me the relevant information about the necklace. Things that can attract a spiritual psychic genius should not be as simple as it seems."

Soon, a small information recorder was placed in front of the man. Although the blue light flashing on the screen did not reflect his cheek, the moment he reached out to take it, illuminated the pattern the size of a thumb on the side of the sleeve, and was hand-embroidered with gold thread.

It was a blue planet with a correct word "Wen" inlaid in the middle.

For some people, this pattern is no stranger to it. The emblem of the heavy industry group "Wen's", which accounts for 20% of the Universe Commercial Network, is exactly the same as it.

The information about the necklace is very complete. From the initial production to completion, as well as the transportation process and several different owners therein, they are all listed in detail. Especially the huge blue crystal, there are a large number of photos taken from multiple angles, as well as relevant testimony from all those who have contacted it.

This is a diamond dug from the mine of Planet Shuiwei 17 64 years ago. After being handed over to the Industrial Federation Headquarters, it was bought by a diamond merchant. After processing it into jewelry, there were four owners. During this period, it experienced three auctions, all of which were around 300,000 to 400,000 federal standard currency. In the end, it was handed over by the last down-and-out owner and handed over to the "Eliot" auction house with full rights reserved.

This is an ordinary and unparalleled gem. There is nothing unique except its own value.

"Maybe, this young man is preparing to prepare a good gift for his girlfriend or fiancée!"

The man in the shadow calmed down and subconsciously tapped the armrest of the chair with his long fingers: "Alfred, ask Ace to send his relevant information immediately. Also, keep a close eye on it, I am also very interested in the last thing."

......

The next few auction items are not very attractive to Zhao Yi.

A delicate mechanical pocket watch from the era of a large immigration period was finally sold for 2.16 million yuan, and was bought by a middle-aged man in gray.

A quaint sandalwood fan was bought by a lady in the private room on the second floor. The offer was 682,000 yuan.

There are also two full-scale heavy cruisers, becoming what seems to be the bag of a businessman.

Zhao Yi is not short of warships. As long as he is willing, he can form a large fleet at any time.

Soon, the auctioneer on the stage raised the information screen button in his hand and shouted loudly in an uncontrollable fanatical tone: "Gentlemen, ladies. Now, the last item tonight, and the most valuable and mysterious item will be auctioned - the production drawings of the A-class general warship "New Texas" class heavy battleship, as well as the complete hull production line. Please note: this is not a brand new auction item. Its depreciation rate is more than 30%, but it can still be used."

Suddenly, a slight whisper sounded in the hall of hundreds of people. Even Zhao Yi, who had a weak expression, could not help but show a little surprise on his face.

He had somewhat expected the types of final auction items. However, what he said from the auctioneer still made him feel unprecedentedly excited.

Battleships are the core of the space fleet.

Generally speaking, ships with large-caliber gunfire weapons, including cruisers, are all main battleships. However, the armor and firepower of battleships are far greater than ordinary battleships. Without considering speed, even the idiotic fleet commander is absolutely impossible to fight with cruisers and battleships alone. The reason is very simple - they are not opponents of the same level at all. Especially when multiple types of troops cooperate with each other, the number of battleships is likely to become the most critical factor in the outcome of the battle.

There is no doubt that the core of the auction is not the drawing itself, but the production equipment for the hull of heavy warships.

The entire auction hall was in full swing. People were calculating how much money they could use. Those who felt that they were not strong enough even opened remote communications on the spot, desperately raising more money in various ways.

Arms have always been the most profitable business in the universe. A federal warship production line will definitely acquire it at the highest price.

"This drawing is really interesting..."

Holding his hands, Zhao Yi's eyes showed an inexplicable smile.

You must get this auction item.

Ace did not deceive himself.

At first, Zhao Yi asked Ace to get production equipment and other words, but he did not think Ace had the ability to help him get such things. You must know that even Gruber, the director of the Pyramid Industry Alliance, could not obtain complete equipment from the federal government. According to relevant laws, the production of warships above heavy cruisers can only be carried out in designated places regulated by the federal military. In this case, a complete heavy battleship production assembly line will be divided into hulls, weapons systems, engines and other components, and completed in assembly.
