The world enters the age of myth

Although I am very envious of what "space technology" is, I didn't bring too many high-value items this time, and I didn't want to look too wealthy. The Unkai can only think long term.

By the way, there is also a magical species called "Cai Kun", which looks a bit like a large spherical meat ball. This creature has no eyes or mouth and looks like just a lump of meat. At the bottom of the meat ball are digestive organs and some tentacles, which can digest the surrounding food.

It eats almost anything, including straw, household garbage, and even rotten leaves.

The meat-to-meat ratio of this magical species actually reaches an astonishing 1.6:1!

That is to say, if you eat 2 kilograms of feed, you can grow 1 kilogram of white flesh!

This meat-to-material ratio can almost be regarded as a miracle. Among the earth's civilizations, white-feather chickens have the lowest meat-to-material ratio, which is only 1.7:1, and their requirements for feed are relatively high.

Generally, the feed ratio for native chicken is between 4 and 4.5, the feed ratio for pigs is around 5, and the feed ratio for cattle is about 6-8.

The meat-to-feed ratio of 1.7 means that it grows at an alarming rate.

"How many humans can this thing feed... Wait a minute, it can't be a monster, right? Why do I feel like it is a mutated creature?" Lu Yiming swallowed. Do these indigenous people even eat monsters? It's too wild.

Wait, it seems that there are indigenous people cutting meat on this big meat ball.

The meat ball didn't resist, because its tentacles had been completely chopped off. It had no eyes or nose, and seemed to have no feeling of pain. It was just at the mercy of others. After the flesh is cut, the wound heals within a few minutes, and as long as it has sufficient nutrients, it can grow indefinitely.

The diplomat of Bolier Civilization introduced: "Ahem, the meat of Cai Kun is indeed edible, and it will not cause any mutations in people. The locals have been eating it for several years, and there is no change...but the taste, It's quite ordinary, a bit like fat meat, and has a strong smell of blood, which may be unpalatable to us. But to the locals, it is definitely an amazing strategic species."

"Humans must supplement protein to be strong, and soldiers must eat meat to be able to fight. As long as a large amount of protein can be supplemented, even if it is a bit unpalatable, it is still quite good. Haha, protein, you should understand it, right? .”

Another expert murmured: "Okay... it sounds a bit like synthetic meat in a petri dish. Is it a naturally evolved cell culture dish? Or... cancer cells. Cancer cells can proliferate indefinitely. . By the way, there is a synthesis of animals and plants called Tai Sui. Have you heard of it? Tai Sui looks quite similar to this meat ball... Could it be a mutant species of Tai Sui? "

Lu Yiming, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but shudder and inquired about the price.

"Ten million...a child of Cai Kun costs ten million!"

"Ordinary meat is about the same price as rice."

This price is simply staggering. One island only costs 100 million. Ten million is indeed a big number.

However, there is an endless stream of people coming here to negotiate prices. In order to avoid the taxes of the Bolier civilization, these civilizations usually trade privately.

The host Bolir civilization seems to be unable to contain this phenomenon and can only turn a blind eye. After all, its strength lies here. A civilization, even a technological civilization, cannot stand up to more than twenty other civilizations. Walk around.

"Let's go and see other places..." Lu Yiming took a deep breath, "I've learned a lot. Ancient civilizations always had their own ways to survive in difficult environments."

I originally thought that this trip would suffer some setbacks, but I didn't expect that the overall situation was pretty good. There are about 20 civilizations, each with its own appearance, some seem aggressive, generally arrogant, and the mental state is obviously paranoid.

Some are polite and courteous in dealing with others; others are very good at doing business and talk in one way, which makes people feel very small.

But overall, there was no direct conflict.

Even if it is a lunatic civilization, it must pay attention to some interests. If conflicts arise rashly, other civilizations will only be disadvantaged. Coupled with the effect of the Silent Domain, superpowers are greatly weakened, and the power of firearms and cannons becomes more prominent.

So in this situation, a very strange and fragile balance was formed...

I don’t know how long this balance can be maintained, maybe for several years, or maybe forever...

"The Silent Domain is really a good thing. Several civilizations must have been affected by the evil gods. But the evil gods were also suppressed and did not dare to come forward rashly..." Lu Yiming said calmly.

"Yes, that's true. But will the Silent Realm affect some of our experiments?"

"It should be possible...then what is it? Let's go over and have a look!"

It is a plant that looks like a giant flower, with a giant stomach bag as big as a basketball hanging in front of it. After eating enough food, this giant flower can grow fist-sized fruits. This fruit can actually be used as an incendiary bomb, and can even produce a big explosion under high temperature conditions. It can be regarded as a bomb that can be used in ancient times.

"Why is this plant there?"

"Maybe it's because after the big explosion, it can explode its seeds farther. I guess the seeds of the Big Flower are very capable of resisting high temperatures."

There is a civilization ahead that is selling its own rare birds and animals, which look a bit like an enlarged version of a beetle. Each beetle is as big as a car and is controlled by the humans of that civilization in unknown ways. The giant black pincers exude a breathtaking luster. Judging from the appearance, this insect has a high combat effectiveness.

There are so many new and interesting things that many experts are so excited that they want to buy more research materials and take them back to study.

If you really want to buy it, it is not impossible for the wealthy Yunhaihao to bite the bullet and book this place out!

The original host, the Bolir Civilization, was fifty or sixty years behind in technology. Compared to its wealth, it was really nothing. There is also Ms. Heishasha on the Unkai... one person is equivalent to the productivity of the entire civilization.

But then again, these research materials can only be regarded as materials with a little value at best. A little bit it means it's just tasteless, it looks fun, but actually doesn't make much sense.

If the "Z element" in the dragon's blood is worth ten thousand points, the value of these materials is only a few hundred points at most, with a difference of two orders of magnitude.

It is normal for this kind of thing to happen. If one is not extremely poor, who would take out the best things from his family and sell them?

Jin Wenming sold Shenlong's blood because of the private situation and because the chips provided by the Yunhai No. were generous enough, so they were willing.

But in this kind of public place, whoever sells his trump card is undoubtedly a fool. It is impossible for everyone to show their best.

After visiting all the rooms in the square, Lu Yiming and others had a vague understanding of these more than 20 civilizations.

Since it was getting late, everyone simply returned to the destroyer and rested for the night.

Then, during the day the next day, Lu Yiming discussed the purchase of the island with diplomat Bollier who was following next door.

As soon as the diplomat heard that the other party wanted to buy the island, he quickly became excited. He smiled and said: "You want to buy this island? Its location is quite remote and its area is not large. Let's... The emperor...the head of state already knows about this, and he asked me to give a preferential price, 80 million yuan, which is already the lowest price and cannot be less."

"Let's make it cheaper." Lu Yiming said, "Eighty million is too expensive."

"It's really hard for us to afford such a price. Although we are a technological civilization..."

"Ahem, it's not expensive, it's not expensive... After joining the Bolier Alliance, you can get a fixed trading position in this square. This embassy is given for free, with a total area of ​​300 square meters. And, your civilization will After receiving military protection from the Bolier Alliance, no one is allowed to land in your territory without permission, otherwise it will be regarded as an act of war... The Bolier Alliance will also impose a series of trade sanctions on it."

"Trade sanctions...none of the civilizations have much trade." Lu Yiming shrugged his nose. Why does this wording sound so strange?

This guy took out a thick stack of documents and read the information one by one. It sounded like an explanation of national sovereignty. If outsiders violated national sovereignty, the Bollier Alliance would provide protection and conduct trade. Sanctions and so on.

Lu Yiming felt that these regulations were nonsense. Even Zhao Yi and others from Jin Wenming were drowsy after hearing them. No one was naive enough to really believe these regulations.

The biggest truth in this world is the fist!

The fist is big enough, and everything is easy to talk about. Under the threat of force, even civilizations that worship evil gods and have some mental problems do not dare to make mistakes.

If your fist is not big enough, it will be useless to please anyone.

Where in the world is there a free lunch?

Finally came the bargaining stage. After half a day of bargaining, the price was only reduced by 10 million yuan, and the deal was finally settled at 70 million yuan.

"Then seventy million, no more. If you buy this island, the sea area with a radius of 10 kilometers will be yours!"

After reaching this agreement, Lu Yiming returned to the destroyer and made a brief estimate of the supplies that could be provided.

People only brought 100 tons of spare fuel. This kind of fuel has a high calorific value, and it is no problem to sell it for 40,000 to 50,000 yuan per ton.

There is no oil on this planet. High calorific value fuel will only be used for weapons and equipment, so it is normal to sell it more expensively.
