Chapter 351 Auctioning Planet
Gu Qing continued flipping through the pages until she found three planets up for auction at the very end. She immediately became interested and shifted her body uncomfortably.
This attracted Bo Chuan's attention, and he also took a look at the information in her hand.
None of the three planets are very large; the largest is only 373 million square kilometers, roughly two-thirds the size of Earth. This planet is a mineral-rich planet with no vegetation cover.
The mercenaries conducted a preliminary survey and found two large rare mineral veins, as well as countless medium and small mineral veins. However, there are many strange beasts underground that rely on the energy from these mineral veins for survival.
Developing these mineral veins would likely require a significant investment.
The second largest planet has an area of 291 million square kilometers, but 89% of the planet is covered by oceans. The remaining land is divided into two large areas, which are more suitable for agriculture.
The third planet has an area of only 183 million square kilometers, with oceans covering 31% of it, and a relatively large area of arable land. Therefore, its starting bid is higher than that of the second planet.
"You want to buy a planting planet?" Bo Chuan asked directly, noticing that her gaze was fixed on the descriptions of the three planets.
"Yes, I have that idea, but the conditions for this planet auction are quite high." Gu Qing noticed that the planet auction not only required credit points, but also corresponding purification plants.
The general idea is that if you spend 1 billion credits to buy something, you'll need to provide five Tier 1 Purification Plants; 5 billion will provide Tier 2; 10 billion will provide Tier 3, and so on.
However, the third planet she had her eye on, though small, had a starting bid of 80 billion, and that was just the starting bid. For a planet like that, it's quite normal for the price to multiply several times over during the auction.
This means that he not only has to pay a price, but also has to pay a corresponding seventh or eighth tier, or even a ninth tier, for five complete purification plants.
Gu Qing already possessed all these items, but taking out five high-level purifying exotic plants at once truly pained her. Two of the high-level exotic plants she possessed were left by the original owner's father, and the rest were part of the dowry from the three people's wedding.
She currently has nine seventh-tier trees, five eighth-tier trees, and three ninth-tier trees.
If the price keeps going up, even a ninth-tier cultivator wouldn't be enough.
However, Planet 2 is half the price.
The documents in her hand were taken away. Lou Xiaoyu took a closer look at them and then threw them to Yan Anli.
"If Qingqing wants to buy them, the rest of us can chip in." This was also why he readily handed the information to Yan Anli. The Lou family treasure trove possessed these exotic plants, but he couldn't go too far.
If he waits another year or two, it might be okay. But if he rushes to drain the Lou family dry now, he might suffer a backlash. After all, in order not to give the Lou family a sense of shared misfortune, he did not completely wipe them out.
Furthermore, he grew up in the Lou family and was not entirely devoid of emotion; it was merely a form of resistance against those who wanted to control him.
Yan Anli glanced at the documents as well, "Let's put them together. I still have some credits, but I don't have many exotic plants." He then put the documents back on the coffee table in front of Gu Qing.
This is normal; people will stockpile purification transplants, but this thing has so many uses. Every family has a few elderly high-level combatants.
As these people age, pollution levels rise, and the old wounds from their youthful battles are healed entirely by these purifying exotic plants.
These people, plus those who married him and contributed a portion as dowry, certainly wouldn't have much left.
"I only have one eighth-tier plant and three seventh-tier plants here." Bo Chuan's tone was helpless. He had just been injured while exploring the planet, and his harvest was more than he had gained.
So nothing was saved. If it had been a year or two later, the situation would have been much better.
“I have two eighth-tier plants here.” Qi Bai sat down opposite Qingqing.
Gu Qing shook her head. "Whether it's the same or not, the difference in credit points isn't that much. I'm just wondering if it's worth it."
As she spoke, she pointed to the page for the third planet.
Bo Chuan picked up the document and read it through again in detail. "This planet is considered to be relatively well-developed. The fact that it's so well-developed proves that there aren't many more resources available. Therefore, it's impossible for us to profit from this planet in the short term."
But if we buy it, we just need to clean it up.
To install anchor points in the later stages of planting, land improvement and removal of dissimilar vegetation are necessary. This requires both manpower and funding.
He closed the document and put it back on the coffee table.
