The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons

  Chapter 64 The Black Market and Strange Aliens

  Of course, that refers to the black market in Jinmen or the hinterland of the United Human Empire. The outpost has just been established and the accumulation is insufficient. There are many extremely rare ones that are indeed missing.

   Li Qing thought that he had nothing to do right now, so he came over to see if he could find something interesting.

This is a mixed-type residential station. One large and six small residential stations belong to different forces. Li Qingyi entered the residential station, and his personal terminal automatically connected to the internal LAN. There are six interfaces on a huge main page. Enter the pages of the six small residential stations respectively.

  The background of the main page is a photo of an extremely beautiful woman, surrounded by shop advertisements.

   Click on the pages of the six small residential stations, and a detailed introduction page will pop up, displaying all the business scope and selling points in this area, and there will also be a beautiful operator to introduce it.

  Li Qing is free now, so he checked the introductions of these six small residences one by one, got a little understanding of them, and then returned to the central interface without hesitation, found the black market auction in a row of options, and chose to sign up.

   Then browse online with great interest.

   But it didn't take long before I received a message from Li Lie:

   "Boss, are you here too?"

  The boss yelled so simply and casually.

  He nodded in response:

   "I heard that there is a black market here, there will be a large auction in two days, come and have a look."

   "There are still two days left in the black market auction, anyway, it's fine, do you want to come and play?"

"Let me consider."

   "This place has just opened recently, and many of them are not perfect. The most fun thing now is to gamble on boxes and stones, or trade slaves."

   "I know about gambling on boxes, and I have heard about gambling on stones, but I don't know much about it. Tell me."

   "This, and this, wrap it up for me."

  Li Lie pointed to two of the strangely shaped boxes in front of him like a street stall, indicating to the clerk to pack them, and replied:

"Zutar star field has just begun to develop, and there is a high probability of producing various treasure chests and data chips. Purple epic-level signal chips often appear, or some high-level secret smuggling boxes above level three or four are dug up. Many of these high-level smuggling boxes It’s easy to produce good things.”

"The so-called gambling stones are divided into two types. One is to dig some large meteorites with minerals on the surface in some asteroid belts with minerals, and then sell them at a certain price. The buyer opens the meteorite on the spot to check. A large amount of rich ore, or even rare ore, is a big increase, if it is full of stones, it will naturally be cut."

   "Another way of betting on stones is similar, but it is not a large meteorite, but a special kind of jade, which is similar to the betting stones in the ancient earth era."

   This immediately reminded Li Qing of gambling stones and cutting jadeite in the earth age.

   "However, betting on stones is a small game. It is played by ordinary people. If you want to play a little more exciting, you can gamble on boxes."

   Li Lie ordered a few more boxes and continued to explain.

  Li Qing looked at the introduction about gambling stones in the projection, nodded knowingly, and continued to ask:

   "Then what happened to the slave trade? I remember that the several species of the Shata tribe's joint civilization are not in line with our aesthetics. Is this worth the slave trade?"

   Li Lie laughed and said:

"Who said those ugly comparisons of the Shata tribe are traded? Now the most popular slave here is another member of the Shar Empire civilization, which is one of the three alien civilizations on the Zutar side, and on the other side of the Shata civilization. Now Haven't had any contact with us yet."

"Let me tell you, this civilization called Shar is very magical. It is a civilization evolved from plants. Its talents are like druids in many games. It can control trees and other plants, improve the land, etc. The main body can also take root in the ground to desertify the Gobi, or fix the sand, so Shaer's home planet is a huge forest planet, which is very beautiful."

   "But their most valuable thing is not this, but that every member of Shar will have one or several accompanying tree spirits, who look very beautiful like flower fairies in mythology."

   "Is there such a race?"

  Li Qing immediately opened the slave trading interface, searched for the Shar, and immediately a tree figure similar to Li Lie's description appeared in front of him.

The body of this species is similar to a tree composed of vines, or twisted vines. The head is a huge tree knot formed by entangled vines. There are many tender green leaves, which don't look hideous but rather soft.

  Generally speaking, most species can tell their tendencies from their faces. Species with such a shape and feeling are generally mild-tempered species.

  Beside the Shar tree man, there are two elves like flower fairies flying around. There are long strips of leaves wrapped around their bodies to cover the vital parts of their bodies, and a faint green light surrounds them.

   "What a magical species!"

   Isn’t this kind of species a natural master of environmental modification? As long as there are enough of them, they can easily transform a barren planet into a forest planet.

   Li Qing suddenly became interested, squeezed his chin, checked the price of this species again, and then his face collapsed.

  An ordinary Shar with white talent costs 300,000 stars, which is quite expensive.

  A single piece is not expensive, but if you want to play its role, you have to prepare at least a million or more, and the price is outrageous when combined.

   It is definitely not worth buying directly, but if

   Li Qing pinched his chin. These Shar people were also captured from deep into the Shar civilization. If they can catch them, can't they catch them?

  This race can transform the environment, so farming is definitely no problem.

  If you can grab tens of millions and put them in the warehouse area, it won't take long to transform the two-story warehouse area into a paradise-like environment.

   I even let go of thinking that when there are enough reproductions in the future, they can be sold, or even used to transform the planet and so on.

For example, the planet where his current base is located has water and an atmosphere. It can actually be transformed into a livable planet, and this kind of planet that meets the conditions for the birth of life is strictly speaking a fourth-type life planet. After the transformation of funds, manpower and material resources, it can be used as a living planet, but the development potential is far less than those of the second and third types of living planets.

But it is definitely more beneficial than a habitable planet transformed from a living station and a completely barren planet. Humans born on this kind of life planet may not be as good as the second-type life planet like Jinmen, but it is definitely better than the gray names born on the living station. much.

  To be honest, although living planets are extremely rare in the universe, this rarity refers to more than three types of living planets. If the fourth type of living planets is added, the number is relatively much larger.

  It's just that the difficulty of developing the fourth type of life planet is as high as that of the barren planet, and its potential is limited, so it's in an embarrassing situation. Generally speaking, it's not worthwhile to spend a lot of money to transform it.

  Universal in the universe, all habitable planets are divided into four categories.

   One category is extremely rare. In such a huge territory of the United Human Empire, fourteen star sea lords, more than two hundred military leaders, nearly a thousand living planets, and a total of one was discovered.

  Yes, one was discovered, but it does not belong to humans.

  It is an extremely rare planet with spiritual phases. The planet itself is a planet of life covered by infinite spiritual power, and the creatures inside are born with powerful spiritual power.

  This type of planet has extremely terrifying potential, and the creatures born on this planet are born psykers.

  Think about it, as long as anyone owns this planet and vigorously develops immigration, it will take a few decades for the entire planet to have billions of psykers. What a terrifying power that is?

However, this planet is a phase planet. Not only is there an extremely powerful psionic shield on the surface of the planet that shields the entire planet, even the T-slot doomsday weapon of the Titan Super Banner cannot penetrate it. The key point is that this planet is located between the real world and Between the virtual world, every time it appears in the material universe, it will sink into the virtual world and disappear after a while.

  With the current level of technology, it is impossible to capture and fix it.

  When this planet was first discovered, the entire human empire was boiling. However, fourteen star sea lords took turns to study, but they couldn't open the spiritual energy barrier. They could only watch this planet in the human territory, but could not develop it.

  The second type of planet is the most livable planet except super planets such as psionic planet and Gaia planet, also called super livable planet.

  Super-livable planet is just a general term. It may be a planet dominated by continents, a planet with most of the ocean, or a polar planet that is frozen all the year round, or an arid planet with little rain all year round, etc.

  So the so-called second-class super-livable planet is just a pseudonym. Whether it is super-livable or not depends on the adaptability of different species.

  For species whose parent planet is an arid planet, a planet with little rain and aridity is a livable planet. An ocean planet full of oceans is definitely not livable, but an ocean planet is super livable for aquatic species.

  Humans are terrestrial mammals and have a great demand for water. Planets such as continents and oceans are considered livable planets.

  The third type of planet refers to all the barely habitable planets other than the most habitable planet for the species itself.

  The fourth type of planet refers to a planet whose environment is extremely harsh, but has a complete atmosphere and water source, can support life, but requires large-scale environmental and climate modification.

  For example, the planet where Li Qing's current personal base is located is the fourth type of planet, with atmosphere and water, and simple bacteria and other life forms.

  Civilization individuals born on different types of planets have different potentials. For example, the birth of the fourth type of planet is basically gray civilians, a certain number of white board civilians, and only the bottom civilians will immigrate there.

   Most of the three types of planets are born with blank civilians, occasionally there are some green or blue names, and purple names are extremely rare.

  The second type of planet is the best planet under normal circumstances. The probability of green and blue names appearing in the birth individual is very high, purple names often appear, and there is a probability of orange names appearing.

As for the first type of planet, it goes without saying that if the psychic planet found in the human territory can be occupied, the civilians born on it will all be psychics, with talents between the blue name and the purple name. The talent you may have.

   "Tsk tsk!"

  If one can get a Type I super planet and have enough strength to occupy and develop it, there will be no problem in being promoted to Star Sea Lord in the future.

   It's a pity that there are too few, too few, too few.

  Humanity has discovered one in such a huge territory. The Bruvan United Civilization in the north is comparable to the United Empire of Mankind in terms of territory and strength, and has not seen a single planet.

   Half an hour later, Li Qing came to the gambling box area.

  The residential station has a whole two-story area, the lower floor only bets on the first and second-level boxes, and the upper floor is betting on the third-level and above boxes.

  Li Lie was in front of a counter at this time. Ten boxes of different sizes, colors and shapes were placed in front of him, surrounded by a group of players watching.

He first took out a silver metal box covered with blue lines and placed it in front of him, took a towel from the side, rubbed his hands, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the box surface, a circle of blue light lit up along the outline of the palm, and everyone heard a sound A slight sound immediately cheered him up.

   This is a third-level box, the purchase price is 50 million each, and the theoretical maximum value of the shipment is as high as more than one billion.

  But it is more likely that the value is less than 50 million, or even less than one million.

  This kind of private smuggling box comes from a wide range of sources, including digging graves, dungeons, and spawning when spawning wild monsters, especially when spawning pirates.

   As we all know, many pirates will hide some of their treasures. When the pirates die in battle, they will get a signal chip with coordinates. Press the signal chip to go to the coordinates and dig out the treasures, which are various treasure chests.

  But the collection value of pirates is very uncertain. Things that may be valuable to pirates are of little value to players, and they are not worth much.

  Because of this uncertainty, there is such an operation as gambling on boxes.

  Buy this unopened box and open it again, and get harvested by luck.

  In addition to boxes, undecoded data chips can also be used for gambling.

Li Lie rubbed his hands and opened the box. Everyone stretched their heads and saw the air-conditioning in the box. Li Lie waved his hand to disperse the cold fog, revealing a delicate shelf with five bottles about ten centimeters long stuck on it. , Daji refers to a thick crystal bottle, which contains liquids of different colors.

"what is this?"

  Everyone watched curiously as Li Lie picked up a small bottle exuding a rich silver liquid, his face collapsed in the next second, and he couldn't help but swear:

   "Fuck!"

   Then he showed the attributes of the bottle in front of everyone. Li Qing also saw its attributes, and suddenly showed a strange expression on his face.

  Androgen suppression agent: After taking the drug, it permanently inhibits the secretion of androgen, and promotes the secretion of estrogen, and reaches the normal female level after taking the drug for one month.

"Hahaha"

  Everyone laughed, and Li Lie couldn't hold back his laughter either.

   Then he showed several other medicines one by one, all of which are medicines that stabilize sex-changing genes. When combined, they are a set of medicines that can stably change male genes into female genes, a comprehensive transformation from the genetic level.

   Obviously, this wave of blood loss.

  The price of the third-level box is 50 million, and this set of genetic medicine is estimated to be only a few hundred thousand on the market.
