Vanris is most interested in things like rubies.
She excitedly returned to her room, took out a ten-fold magnifying glass, and carefully observed the purity of the ruby bonsai tree.
"Hey! This is more than just the top-grade flawless 3A level! This is definitely the top-grade flawless 3S level!"
Mai Aotuo knew that Vanris was an expert in studying rubies.
Since she said so, the value of this ruby bonsai tree must be sky-high.
He said regretfully, "Do we have to hand this over? If we keep it and sell it back in the Beichen Galaxy, I'm afraid each person's share will be 20 million!"
Jiang Sheng said excitedly: "Really?! Our first prize this time is only 20 million!"
It needs to be shared among ten people.
Song Baotai said a little embarrassedly, "But we didn't contribute much today. The captain found this all by himself... Should we share it with everyone too?"
Mai Aotuo said hurriedly: "Song Baotai is right, this belongs to the captain alone, we shouldn't share it."
But he still said cautiously: "Captain, if you really want to sell this ruby bonsai tree, can you sell it to my family?"
He quickly glanced at Van Ruisi and said, "...I want to give it to Ruisi as a betrothal gift."
Fan Ruisi never expected that Mai Aotuo would have such a move.
She couldn't help but cover her blushing face and said, "Aoto, are you sick? We are so young, and you're asking for betrothal gifts!"
Mai Aotuo laughed and said, "Get engaged first. After that, you won't have to worry anymore..."
Vanris's face couldn't help but turn redder.
She pushed Mai Aotuo and ran back to her room.
Xia Chujian said, "So you two really are a perfect match! That's great!"
"Then let's have a secret ballot and see if you're willing to hand in this ruby bonsai tree for points, or keep it and sell it."
"I said before that we should split the collected items equally among everyone, so let's split it equally."
In fact, she still had a suitcase full of gold, and she felt embarrassed for not taking it out to share.
After hearing what Xia Chujian said, everyone expressed their agreement with the secret ballot.
Xia Chujian created a small program for secret ballot in his quantum optical computer, and then sent it to the group so that everyone could start voting.
This way no one knows who voted.
The final result was not unexpected. Everyone voted unanimously to keep it for sale.
Xia Chujian said, "Mai Aotuo, since we want to sell it, we will definitely sell it to you first."
"Just pay according to the market price. You don't have to deliberately bid too high. Of course, deliberately lowering the price to take advantage of the familiar is also not allowed."
Mai Aotuo said quickly, "I definitely won't kill an old friend! I'll leave this ruby bonsai tree with the captain for now."
"I'll contact the captain once we return to the Beichen Galaxy."
Xia Chujian nodded in agreement and asked Xiaofei to return the ruby bonsai tree to her room.
Then she added, "Now that you have consolidated your newly improved spiritual power, you can go out mining together tomorrow."
"Does everyone have any plans?"
The remaining team members looked at each other, then looked at Xia Chujian together and said, "We will do whatever the captain says."
Chen Yanjun also said, "Hasn't the captain already explored the route today? How is the situation at this God's Landing?"
Xia Chujian thought about what happened today and couldn't help complaining: "They said God came to earth, but there is nothing!"
"Xiao Fei and I flew 5,000 kilometers and found this ruby bonsai tree!"
"Those military interstellar exploration team members only found some common metals, which are abundant in the Beichen Galaxy. There's no need to transport them back from this distant galaxy."
The team members looked at each other in surprise, saying, "So the military members didn't find any rare mineral deposits either?"
"I heard there are a lot of rare metal deposits here, right? Where did they all go?"
Xia Chujian shook his head and said, "Anyway, I took a route to that place in the east, but I didn't find anything."
"Also, I saw Qiu Zining heading east as well."
"By the way, is she back?"
When Xia Chujian thought of this, he leaned over to look toward the porthole again.
Sure enough, several aircraft returned from outside, but they were all military airships, and none of them belonged to their school.
Xia Chujian was a little nervous and said, "I don't know how many people in our school have left, or if they all stayed..."
If they were all left behind and are now missing, the loss would be quite large.
Everyone fell silent.
After a while, Xia Chujian said, "How about we not go out tomorrow and look for those missing people first?"
As she was speaking, she suddenly felt a message pop up in the expedition team's public channel.
Zong Ruoning, Ombudsman: There's been a change at the camp! Don't go back! Don't go back! Don't go back!
Huh?
Is this the public channel that can connect to the expedition headquarters?
Xia Chujian quickly sent a message.
[Xia Chujian Treasure Hunt Team 1]: Teacher Zong, there's definitely a problem at the camp. Do you know where the remaining people are? We're all near the camp, but we're afraid to go in.
Zong Ruoning had already walked far away, but when he thought about what happened in the camp, he was worried that it was getting late and that the people who came back might accidentally enter the camp and disappear as well, which would be terrible.
So he finally asked the driver to return to the vicinity of the camp.
He has now become a genetically evolved being, and is certain that he does have a premonition of the crisis, so there is no need to worry about him coming back.
