Universe dominance

"Very good!"

After receiving Yan Ping's affirmative answer, Bezos almost jumped up with excitement. Then he calmed down slightly and asked, "Mr. Yan Ping, I wonder if we can purchase something from Chang'e City and bring it over." Woolen cloth?"

"I'm afraid this won't work. As you know, we brought the materials on the moon from the Earth. They are hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, and every material is very precious."

Yan Ping shook his head slightly. The Chang'e base on the moon does not have the ability to circulate itself at all. The water it drinks and the air it breathes are all brought from the earth.

"Mr. Yanping, please help me. We will satisfy you regarding the price."

Bezos had already been prepared for the other party's rejection. Without hesitation, he once again resorted to sugar-coated bullets. If there is something that money cannot solve, it must be that the money is not provided in place.

"I want to ask my superiors for instructions on this matter. If there is any news, I will inform you as soon as possible."

Yan Ping thought for a while and then slowly said, he can make the decision about traveling to the moon, but he can't make the decision about purchasing supplies. After all, the supplies on the moon are still very precious. With Uncle Sam's wealth, To a certain extent, if procurement is really liberalized by then, Chang'e City's own operating needs will be affected to some extent.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Yanping. Please help me. The price is really easy to talk about. We just feel that it is inappropriate to meet our own astronauts empty-handed, so we want to bring some gifts."

Bezos felt slightly disappointed, but he did not give up. After bidding farewell to Yan Ping, he quickly contacted the domestic side of the earth, directly contacting Uncle Sam's presidential office, and expressed such an idea to his president, hoping that Mr. President Being able to talk to China may not be useful for your own face, but the president's face is completely different.

"Yan Ping, agree to their request to purchase supplies, but not all supplies are open to them, and the quantity is also limited. Since they have money, let's give them a good meal. Anyway, we use aerospace planes to transport supplies. The cost is also very low, and I will make a huge profit from them this time.”

Soon, Yan Ping received a notice from his superiors, agreeing to their purchase of supplies. President Uncle Sam personally called the Chinese side. This bit of face still had to be given. After all, it didn't involve any high-tech things. It's just some ordinary supplies, but you can't make them cheap. They are still a bunch of fat sheep anyway. How can you deal with them without killing them.

After getting a positive reply from Yanping, Bezos and others began to act excitedly. Yanping gave them a list of materials they could purchase, as well as their quantity, price, specifications, etc.

"This list will be sent to China immediately. NASA scientists are waiting and they will give us their opinions."

"Now everyone can officially post a donation on their own homepage. Everyone should take action and raise as much funds as possible. The price here in China is really too expensive. A bottle of 500ML mineral water costs 100,000. Beautiful knife, too expensive!”

Bezos ordered Allison, who was responsible for contacting NASA, and then ordered other wealthy people. The price on the list was so expensive that even the world's top wealthy people couldn't help it when they saw it. Take a breath.

The simplest mineral water costs 100,000 U.S. dollars, and other precious materials are even more expensive, such as compressed air. A standard cubic meter of compressed air with standard pressure costs 10 million U.S. dollars, and even they have always wanted to. The price of the steak I brought there has also increased several times, and it actually costs 1 million US dollars a portion.

This is simply a money grab by Chi Guoguo, but there is no way. Who said this is the moon? Who told Bezos to say that money is not a problem from the beginning?

In Uncle Sam's country, the influence of these top tycoons cannot be ignored. Everyone's domestic assistants announced the news almost immediately, set up a fundraising fund, and started operating it. Soon, news headlines , mobile phone text messages, news advertisements, virtual world messages, etc., almost every Uncle Sam has received relevant information.

"More than 20 wealthy people who are traveling on the moon want to visit the aerospace heroes currently working on the moon. Through their unremitting efforts, they have obtained permission to purchase a batch of supplies as gifts from China's Lunar Chang'e City."

"Everyone knows that the materials on the moon are very scarce. It is very expensive for us to launch materials to the moon by spacecraft, and we also face great risks. So if we can purchase as many materials as possible from Chang'e City in China this time, In the past, it could greatly relieve NASA’s pressure and also greatly speed up the construction of our lunar base.”

"However, the materials here in China are very expensive. Everyone needs to contribute. Those who have money will pay for it, and those who have no money will help forward it."

Soon, not only Uncle Sam and the entire country knew the news, but everyone around the world knew the news, which shocked countless people that they could still operate in this way.

Uncle Sam's news media greatly appreciated the actions of more than 20 rich people who traveled to the moon. The people in Uncle Sam's country were also very enthusiastic about this, and the number of fund accounts set up began to soar crazily.

In Uncle Sam's country, all the presidents from Uncle Sam to Uncle Sam have stated that they will privately donate 10 million US dollars for this purchase plan. Hollywood superstars, sports stars, etc. are also joining in the fun, a lot, a lot. U.S. knives were donated; ordinary people, primary school students, and even poor people who relied on relief also donated a little bit of their own.

In less than an hour, the fund account set up by Bezos and others received more than 10 billion US dollars in donations, and as more and more people joined in, especially politicians, celebrities, rich people, etc. Taking the lead, the subsequent donations were very rapid, and soon the funds collected exceeded 100 billion US dollars.

Uncle Sam's powerful side of hiding wealth among the people is most vividly demonstrated at this moment. Maybe Uncle Sam's government has little money and owes a lot of debt all over the world, but Uncle Sam's citizens are very rich.

After it was launched, the power was unprecedentedly powerful, especially now that it can be said that the whole country is paying attention and everyone is participating. Rich people on the moon like Bezos, Buffett, and Gates have donated generously. Buffett, Gates, Bezos, and Ellie The richest tycoons in the U.S. each spent 500 million U.S. dollars, and others started with at least 100 million U.S. dollars. These 20 people alone have raised billions of dollars.

Moreover, these rich people personally went to their friends to beg for food. In virtual worlds, these top rich people invited the top rich people in Uncle Sam's country to give speeches, and the funds raised were naturally very considerable. .

At this time, it was the beginning of Uncle Sam's plan to return to the moon. The entire nation was paying close attention to it, and the funds raised were getting larger and larger, which also made people at NASA ecstatic.

At this time, in a conference room at NASA headquarters, a team of scientists who were urgently recruited gathered together. On the huge monitor screen was the list and price of materials sent by Yanping to Bezos. They were discussing how to use the existing supplies. Use the funds to purchase as many and most useful materials as possible.

Purchasing supplies directly from Chang'e City on the moon to Wells is much simpler, more convenient, safe, reliable and faster than Uncle Sam's own rocket-launched spacecraft to the lunar base. It can greatly speed up the process of returning to the moon.

"This is a list provided by China Lunar Chang'e City. This time I want to thank our domestic wealthy people. Their generosity can greatly speed up the progress of our return to the moon plan. Now the fund they have established has raised a huge amount of more than 150 billion U.S. dollars. Funds, what we have to do now is to use these funds as much as possible to purchase the most urgently needed things for our lunar base.”

The person in charge, Lawrence, had a loud voice and seemed very excited. If Uncle Sam only relied on himself to transport supplies to the moon, the progress of the return to the moon plan would be very slow. Even launching a spacecraft to the moon once every half month would be too fast. Where to go, and the cost will be huge.

"We must purchase as much water as possible. Water is very important to maintain the lives of astronauts, but unlike other substances that can be compressed and so on, it takes up a lot of volume. They sell a bottle of water for $100,000, but it actually doesn't matter at all. It’s expensive, I suggest you purchase all the quota they give, so that we can save a lot of space in our next plan.”

Immediately, a scientist stood up to speak. The first thing they looked at was water resources. On the moon, which is nearly 400,000 kilometers away from the earth, water resources are the most precious resources. You can live for a week without food, but without water, three times in a row. I can't live for days.

Other scientists nodded after hearing this, and they also valued water resources very much.

"Compressed air must also be purchased. In this case, astronauts' survival on the moon will at least be worry-free."

"Food cannot be lacking. Our astronauts eat compressed food on the moon, which only guarantees nutrition and tastes very poor. Purchasing some delicious food can greatly ease their mood on the moon."

Soon, many scientists expressed their opinions and made a purchase list. It can be said that they actually wanted to move everything on the list to their own lunar base, but this The price is too expensive. Even if you now hold a huge capital of 150 billion U.S. dollars, you still have to make a choice.
