Chapter 55

When a high price of 3 million was called out in the private room, the bidding in the venue stopped for a moment, but after a while, someone else called out 3.1 million.

S-level parts are expensive, especially the accessories on weapons, which are the most expensive among all parts. Weapon ring-shaped connecting parts are large connecting parts between weapons and the body, and they are expensive to manufacture. Generally, the price of such S-level parts will be higher than that of other parts, not to mention parts with 85% accuracy.

After 310w, some people continued to add more.

In KID's private room, Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao listened to the bidding outside, "How much can this thing be bid for?"

"S-level parts depend on the buyer. S-level offensive parts are even rarer, so people who want them will naturally not hesitate to pay a high price for them." You Su explained, his eyes stopping at Ying Chenlin next to him. He had no shortage of these parts, but many mecha bases did.

S-grade parts forged from S-grade materials, these parts combined with weapon energy crystals, are used to forge S-grade mecha embryos.

The precision conversion and spiritual empathy brought by advanced materials will also increase, and the possibility of the mecha awakening intelligence to become an S-class mecha will be higher.

Besides, for parts of this precision, besides the needs of mecha masters and bases, there are also people who want to research or resell them. Once this part is released, it will definitely cause discussion within a certain range, and more people will want to learn about this technology that improves precision.

You Su asked: "You asked Shen Xingtang to help you, so you asked her to sell the parts under the name of KID, right?"

Ying Chenlin said: "Well, it would be best if she came forward."

It is a well-known fact that Yuan is bound to KID. By letting KID handle it, Ying Chenlin's identity will not be exposed by those with ulterior motives. You Su was puzzled as to why Ying Chenlin chose to release the parts at this time. He remembered that Ying Chenlin wanted to exchange for materials at first, so there must be other reasons for him to change his mind at the last minute. "What do you want to shoot? Besides the Red Rabbit Beast."

Ying Chenlin: "I don't know if I can take a picture of it. I'm not sure."

Ji Qingfeng listened to the voice outside and said, "The price has been raised to 5 million! What kind of material is it? It can't be more expensive than your weapon accessories, right?"

"It's not the material." Ying Chenlin lowered his head slightly, and received the message from Shen Xingtang on his computer.

[Shen Xingtang: Cockpit parts, accuracy 82%. ]

Seeing the content of the message, his expression relaxed and he turned his attention back to the auction. "It's a part with special meaning."

After noticing the parts technology of this period, Ying Chenlin took some time to sort out the timeline of parts development.

Certain time points and events in my memory were barely matched as the investigation data was improved. The reason why he asked Shen Xingtang to come forward was to find out the person behind this part. The parts that can be added to the auction house are not based on the name, but the real appraisal certificate.

In other words, the accuracy of the parts submitted by this person must meet the upgradeable standards, which is higher than 80%.

The location was Sirius again, which reminded him of someone, the oldest master in KID's maintenance room in his previous life, who was also the one who suggested to him that he could use mental power to grind parts when he was practicing grinding parts.

When he had been with him in his previous life, he had heard this master talk about his early experiences. Before he entered KID, he had entered a contaminated area and became seriously ill and fell into a coma. In the end, his grandson took his unfinished parts and looked for help everywhere. The parts were bought at a low price, and the two of them barely made ends meet. Later, that part was brought to the second star field by someone with ulterior motives, which promoted the parts reform in the second star field. The designer of the parts was transformed into another person.

The master was invited by Shen Xingtang to

Please enter KID, and then you will know that the parts he spent half his life researching have become the work of others. But he couldn't blame his grandson either. If his grandson hadn't sold the part, his life would have been lost.

Ying Chenlin was unable to remember every detail of the future generations. When he died, the old master was still alive, and his grandson became an excellent successor. The two of them had been committed to researching parts technology. Even if he was gone, KID in future generations should be able to continue operating with the cooperation of others.

But he remembered the precision of that part, because once when he was grinding a part and breaking through the critical point of the material, the old master once said that when he researched that part back then, it also broke through the critical point, 82%. If he had been luckier, he might have been able to finish the part earlier.

Lin Yao scratched his head and asked doubtfully, "But if we auction these S-level parts, won't it cause more trouble? 85% of the S-level parts are offensive weapon parts. There are many mecha masters who want to bid for them, and I guess some parts companies would also like to bid, right?"

"It doesn't matter how many you bid. That part is made of scrap material, so some of the patterns may be messy."

The scraps left by Ying Chenlin after polishing were basically separated. The materials of the Centennial Orchid were given to KID, and the remaining scraps were scattered. He had spent a lot of effort to fuse the scraps together. There were too many parts with disrupted engravings due to the fusion of the scraps. The shapes were messed up, and the engravings were blocked. In short, it was completely different from the normal direction of the parts. "Well... it's best to use it directly. As for research, it may take a lot of effort, and you may not be able to see anything."

You Su looked at him, crossed his arms and watched the prices rising higher and higher in the venue, "It seems that getting rid of this part is a good thing."

Ying Chenlin nodded. He also felt that the remaining S-level materials were a waste, so he thought about fusing them together. “It shouldn’t be sold for 10 million yuan. It’s a pity that Boss Zhou is targeting the A-level mecha market, otherwise I would have liked to give it to him at a low price.”

Ji Qingfeng: "Oh speaking of Boss Zhou, he seems to have been looking for you these days, but you are always busy."

"I neglected it." Ying Chenlin was slightly startled: "I will contact him later."

On the field, the S-class parts continue.

In other private rooms, the heads of major mecha bases saw that the prices of parts were getting higher and higher, and many of them had chosen to stop bidding. The remaining ones in the auction were basically major parts companies. Yuan's parts technology was special, and there were too few goods for sale on Star Online. There are many businessmen in the market. Businessmen are profit-oriented. It is easy to collect the A-level parts made by Yuan, but Yuan has never had any S-level parts.

Even though the price is much higher than the market price, the technical significance brought by the S-level accuracy of 85% is completely different.

No one who was willing to bid on the spot expected that such a part would suddenly appear. It was purely a pleasant surprise. The number of people participating in the auction on the spot was much smaller than that of the outside world. If there had been news of this part earlier, I am afraid the price of the part would have been even higher.

There are few people at the scene right now, so if you can capture it, you will definitely make a lot of money.

Ji Qingfeng turned his head and looked at Ying Chenlin, looking at him as if he were looking at a huge treasury: "Brother Lin, this is more than 10 million, right?"

Lin Yao: "You even called me brother?"

Ji Qingfeng: "I have never seen so much money! This is just a spare part! It's not even a supernatural crystal!"

In the end, the parts were auctioned off to a private room at a high price of 12 million. When the auctioneer dropped the hammer, Ying Chenlin's eyes also fell on the room 1468, "The price is indeed high."

Lin Yao looked at the private room with a bit of pity in his eyes, "No wonder Brother Huo told me not to get carried away when attending an auction, as it's easy to end up being a big mistake."

"Look, isn't No. 1468 a big victim?"

-

When Gu Xiaotian followed the staff into another private room, he saw a capable woman in work clothes. The other party did not hide anything and still walked around in a swaggering manner in a place like an auction house. He had seen mecha competitions and was also a Sirius. When he saw the person in front of him, he knew she was the female boss of KID.

Seeing someone coming in, Shen Xingtang said, "Please sit down. You came here. Do you intend to withdraw from the auction?"

"I... I didn't mean to do that. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to use Yuan's name to cheat. It's just that without Yuan's name, I can't enter the auction house." Gu Xiaotian was desperate. The auction house was heavily guarded. When he said he wanted to sell parts, the staff would only tell him to wait until the auction was over on the 8th before coming back. Only when he used Yuan's name did they change their attitude.

He originally planned to explain it clearly after the parts accuracy test came out, but the people at the auction house were too busy. Before he had a chance to explain, the other party had already arranged other things. "I wanted to explain, but I didn't find a chance. Sorry."

Shen Xingtang: "Do you know how much legal responsibility you will have to bear if you impersonate someone else?"

Gu Xiaotian lowered his head and gritted his teeth, "I know, I can take the responsibility...as long as I can get money to save my grandfather."

Shen Xingtang looked at the boy in front of him with a rough voice, probably using a voice changer. From his tone, he could tell that the boy was not very old, but he was pretending to be an adult and entering such an auction occasion. She originally thought that it would be a little difficult to investigate, but who knew that the child's disguise was so poor, or there was no disguise at all. When he was wandering at the entrance of the auction house, all kinds of spies at the entrance of the auction house had already noticed him.

She asked around and found out the whole story. There were many people impersonating Yuan. Ever since their online store became popular some time ago, there have been many counterfeit and shoddy online stores selling parts. It's just that those counterfeits are too low-level, and the precision and durability of the parts can't deceive people. But the part this child took out was different. She had just read the appraisal certificate, and it was an S-class mid-axle cockpit docking part with a precision that broke the market standard.

Parts that exceed the standards are easy to sell, it’s just that we haven’t found the right buyers yet.

Shen Xingtang said directly: "There are so many famous designers, why did you think of pretending to be Yuan?"

"Will you take my parts? I don't want to auction them off. I'm really short of money." Gu Xiaotian's voice was trembling, but he grabbed Shen Xingtang like a life-saving straw: "Someone told me to do this. He said that as long as I use Yuan's name, the people at the auction house will definitely let me in and won't ask any questions."

Shen Xingtang stared at him, "Who?"

Gu Xiaotian said: "I don't know him. He said he is my grandfather's friend. He speaks with a Sirius accent... Two people, and one person's accent doesn't sound like ours, but I heard they speak the language of another star region."

-

In the auction room 1468, the man in gray saw that the man had finally bought the parts at a high price of 12 million, and asked in a puzzled tone: "You don't need S-level parts, why are you bidding for this? If you want high-precision parts, wouldn't the parts of that kid named Gu be enough?"

"It's easy to photograph his parts, but it's harder to fish for him. The guy surnamed Gu spent several years, and the accuracy has always been 82%, but this Yuan can easily raise the accuracy to 85%. Why do you think I spent so much effort to find this person?" The man's eyes sank slightly. "The kid is short of money. The 82% can be taken back later, but there are not many plans to catch Yuan——"

He even made a thorough plan. As long as he could successfully get the part circulated through the auction, in addition to causing public opinion, he could also successfully link the part with Yuan. Even if Yuan did not take the bait, he could use the part as a breakthrough.

As long as he says there is a problem with the parts and reveals his identity as the buyer, in order to protect Yuan's reputation and investigate the identity of the counterfeit, KID will not just ignore it and will keep in touch with him.

But now all the plans have been disrupted by Shen Xingtang.

KID's real-name auction is similar to selling spare parts online. He can use the parts issue as an excuse to get close to KID, but he can't pry KID's mouth open. He may even make KID put the main conflict on himself.

All his arrangements were ruined by Shen Xingtang's move.

The man frowned slightly. It was impossible for Shen Xingtang to get the news so quickly and arrange everything so quickly. It was as if someone was pushing this matter from behind, causing the development of this matter to go in a direction he did not expect.

The man in gray looked at him and said, "But you spent 1.2 million yuan on this thing. Generally, the top-end parts on the market only cost 5 million yuan."

Seeing the auctioneer come over to confirm, the man quickly signed. He said solemnly, "Don't worry, for something worth 12 million, when we return to the Second Star Region, there will be plenty of bases that want to research S-level parts."

The man in gray understood the man. He never made a loss in business. He laughed and said, "So you plan to return with a full load?"

The man's tone relaxed a little, and he said, "Of course, I want all of Yuan's parts, Gu Xiaotian's parts, and the next S-level supernatural crystals."

At the auction, one lot process has been quickly concluded and a new one has begun.

As items passed by one after another, until a highly anticipated item came on stage, everyone's eyes changed. When the auction was first announced, a preview of the S-class supernatural crystal was released, and it was also revealed that it was an S-class offensive supernatural crystal. Offensive energy crystals are too rare, so even if this announcement might be a cover for an auction, a large number of mecha warriors came here following the sound.

The auctioneer took a step back, and a transparent floating platform protected by heavy protective equipment rose up in the central booth.

On the suspension platform, the S-level supernatural crystal was floating. The light-colored supernatural crystal showed a strange white color, and there were several blue whirlpools in the white color. ♀

In the private room, the man's eyes lit up: "Here it comes."

The auctioneer said in a high voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, the next item to be auctioned is the most important item of this auction. It is a supernatural crystal from the S-level mutant pollutant Wind Chaser Falcon. The attribute is [Wind]. It is an offensive supernatural crystal, and its supernatural power is [Compressed Storm]."

The gray-clothed man immediately sat up straight. "It's actually a wind-attribute attack ability! I remember the weapon you're using now is a wind-attribute attack ability, right?"

"Yes." The man's expression eased a little. "I didn't expect that such a barren place could produce such a supernatural crystal."

In the KID private room, Lin Yao and Ji Qingfeng's eyes were almost fixed on the supernatural crystal.

Theo looked at You Su excitedly: "You Su!! Wind attribute! Offensive type!!"

They have been running around the contaminated area for a long time trying to find the supernatural crystal!

When Ying Chenlin saw this, he blinked and turned his head to look at You Su.

The weapon that Theo damaged was a wind-attribute attack-type energy crystal, and it was a weapon with a wind-attribute energy crystal as its core.

You Su raised his eyes slightly and focused his attention on the field: "It seems that Sirius's Feng Shui is really good."

The auctioneer's voice rang out: "S-level Wind Chaser Falcon Energy Crystal, starting price 2 million! Each bid increase must not be less than 100,000!"

As soon as the words fell, various discussions rang out in the private rooms in the venue.

"The starting price is so high. It's so rare. I didn't expect this small place to have a wind-attribute attack."

"Wind attribute energy crystal! Offensive type!"

"It is said that the rarity of single wind-attribute attack-type energy crystals is almost catching up with dual-attribute energy crystals."

“There must be a lot of big guys bidding!!”

The criteria for identifying supernatural crystals come from the supernatural powers of the pollutant itself and its attributes.

Wind-attributed energy crystals are not uncommon, but most of them are classified as auxiliary types due to the energy of pollutants and do not have strong attack capabilities. The reason why this supernatural crystal is rare is that it has wind attributes and is an offensive supernatural power at the same time.

The attributes carried by offensive energy crystals are mostly gold, fire, thunder and other highly aggressive attributes, while wind, ice and water are even rarer.

The Wind Chaser Falcon has been registered in the alliance and is a pollutant of the flying animal system. The registration information was transmitted from the border pollution area.

This kind of pollutant is extremely rare. Only three have been registered so far. Its ability is [Compressed Wind

It is said that the most terrifying manifestation of its compression storm is that it can destroy a city in an instant.

The appeal of S-level wind-attribute attack-type energy crystals was so great that after the auctioneer announced the starting price, the frequency of bids on the field became higher.

"6 million!"

"620w!"

The man sneered and raised the price directly to 9 million yuan.

While the auction was going on, in the KID private room, Ji Qingfeng saw the prices outside getting higher and higher. He covered his vault and began to worry: "Wait? Which idiot is so unethical to raise the price so high?! Don't they know how to make a tactful offer?!"

Lin Yao took a look and said, "Da Feng, it's the big bastard 1468, the one who took pictures of Chen Lin's parts."

Seeing this, Ying Chenlin thought about his own money in his mind, minus the money he spent on bidding for S-level materials, minus the money he spent on buying spare parts for Shen Xingtang... and thought about how much support funds he could give to You Su.

"I'm afraid of meeting this kind of person who is stupid and rich." Ji Qingfeng covered the treasury: "Yaobao, how much do you have left? Let's make up for Brother You."

Just as the three of them were counting the money in the vault, You Su, who was sitting in the corner of the sofa, swiped open the virtual screen and entered a price.

Inside the venue, the auctioneer received the price and said in a high tone: "No. 5666, 12 million!!"

Hearing this, Ji Qingfeng hurriedly held onto the handrail beside him and asked, "Who is this idiot who raised the price to 12 million all of a sudden?!"

Lin Yao tilted his head to look at his private room number. The large gold-rimmed characters '5666' were right in front of him. "Da Feng, 5666 seems to be us."

Ji Qingfeng's head was dizzy, and he forgot where he was when he counted the money: "Brother?"

He looked at You Su who was in the corner swiping open the virtual screen to fill in the price, "Brother, this is not the way to get ahead!"

The number of people bidding in the venue gradually decreased as the price got higher and higher.

In Room 1468, the man in gray had done a simple investigation before coming to the auction. Although most of them were anonymous, by checking the flight schedules of some important people, he could still know who was gathered in Auction Room 8. "Several of those bidding against you are from the Mecha Base. There is little capital to bid for the supernatural crystals. Most of them are from the Mecha Base of the First Star Region, and a small number are from other star regions. They should not be able to compete with you."

The original purpose of their coming to the Sirius Auction House was to get this rumored offensive supernatural crystal. In order to bid for the supernatural crystal, they had already done a good investigation beforehand and roughly knew the high price range that the people in the venue could offer.

The man frowned and looked outside the venue. He frequently heard the number 5666 from the auctioneer. He tilted his head to look at the man in gray: "Who is number 5666?"

The man in gray frowned: "Room 5666 is a secondary private room."

The secondary private room is far from the central auction table, which means that the people staying in the room have a low consumption level and are not top VIP customers of the Sirius Auction House.

At this time, private room No. 1468 made another bid, raising the price to 13 million!

You Su's expression remained unchanged. He raised his hand and entered the new price on the virtual screen, raising it to 15 million!

Lin Yao: "Da Feng, it's 15 million now. Is our small treasury enough?"

Ji Qingfeng was silent: "...I can still hold on for a while, my wife is still here."

Immediately afterwards, the price in the venue went up again, soaring directly to 18 million.

You Su entered the new price slowly and calmly.

The auctioneer's voice was excited: "25 million! 25 million for room 5666!"

Lin Yao: "Da Feng, Brother You has offered 2,500."

Ji Qingfeng fell down on the sofa, "My wife is gone."

You Su's expression did not change, as if entering those prices was just a string of numbers to him. When he heard the price increase outside and was about to enter the new price, he suddenly noticed the gaze from the opposite side.

He raised his eyes and noticed that Ying Chenlin, who was sitting on the sofa opposite him, was looking at him.

You Su input the price and asked casually, "What's wrong?"

Ying Chenlin reminded quietly: "I don't have any money either."

You Su's expression slightly moved, and he suddenly became interested. He looked into Ying Chenlin's eyes and said, "What if we don't have money?"

Ying Chenlin was slightly startled: "It seems that we can't cut in line at the auction now."

Including his remaining star coins, he couldn't afford Yousu's current high price. Even if he wanted to sell the other polished materials and parts in the storage device, he couldn't do it now.

Off the field, the price was still fluctuating, rising little by little to 40 million.

At this time, the price of private room 1468 was raised to 50 million in one go!

As soon as the price came out, other competing voices in the market suddenly disappeared.

In room 1468, the man looked at the auction room which had suddenly fallen silent.

Although the market value of S-level supernatural crystals is high, due to the competitiveness and cost considerations of other people in the field, they generally will not continue to compete with him online. The transaction price of S-level supernatural crystals in the auction is generally around 30 million, except for special supernatural crystals. Once the price exceeds 50 million, capital will withdraw, and the mecha base will weigh the cost and generally will not continue to compete.

The man has calculated all of this and everything is certain to go smoothly.

The man in gray watched the auctioneer drop the hammer once and said, "It seems that Sirius's ability to compete is really not good. A wind-attribute attack type can be taken for 50 million. If it is placed in our star field, we can get another 20 million."

The man said in a bland tone: "So I said this is a poor little place—"

Suddenly, just as the auctioneer was about to bring down the final hammer, a new bid popped up on the virtual screen in the venue.

The man stood up suddenly, looking shocked.

The auctioneer was stunned for a moment. He looked at the price that popped up on the virtual screen, his voice trembling slightly, and then he excitedly said, "80 million!!! Room 5666 bids 80 million!!!"

In the KID private room, the virtual table in front of You Su displayed a price of 80 million.

You Su looked at Ying Chenlin and laughed.

Then he looked sideways out the window and saw that the offer number 1468 had stopped.

He said to Ying Chenlin: "Don't worry, I won't use your little treasury."

"He can't beat me."

The author has something to say:

80 million is out.

Student Xiaoying began to daydream.

Ji Qingfeng: It’s over. My wife has lost all her money and is still selling herself.

Lin Yao: Can 80 million be used to mortgage Theo?

Brother You: Rich, really rich.

——————

It seems that everyone is worried about the plot of Gu Xiaotianding Mingyuan in the later stage.

The child was just being taken advantage of and led astray. There won't be such a plot, so don't worry.

This is a purely enjoyable story, please rest assured.

I'm a bit restless today because of my period, so if I can finish the update I'll post it here. If not, just wait for the update tomorrow.

Don't wait! Not sure if I can update tonight!
