Mu Liang checked the relevant information about Mars online, hoping to learn about its surface structure, climate change, dangers and other information in advance.

Unfortunately, apart from a rough introduction to the Earth and Star region, no detailed surveying and mapping data from the Earth and Star Administration was found, and it was obviously kept confidential.

Finally, I clicked on the website of the Shinwag Auction Company that commissioned the "Purple Marrow Chalcedony". Apart from some words of admiration and praise, there were various controversies about the origin of the jade and the family of ancient organisms. No more useful information was found.

Regarding tomorrow’s physical meeting, all the Stars’ audience will see are superficial articles.

Only the members of the Hijin Empire's garrison fleet and a very small number of local people know the true intention.

Schinwag Auction Company, which is accustomed to using clever publicity tactics, may not even know the core value of the auction for the first time, so it has become someone else's slave girl.

The roles of cat and mouse depend on who is more intelligent, more calculating and more controlling.

This meeting will be open to all stars.

The number of visitors who registered online exceeded the 1 million mark.

Among them are nearly 5,000 fleet garrison members, which can be described as a huge crowd.

The auction company discovered that it had attracted so much attention from aliens. They were both surprised and worried, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

The original visit time was only half a day on Sunday afternoon.

So many people flocked to the auction hall that the largest auction hall with 2,000 people could not accommodate any seats. Even if they queued up to pass in front of the jade, they would not be able to satisfy everyone's wishes in one afternoon.

Shinwag Auction Company made the most serious promise that it would never do such a breach of trust to offend potential customers. In desperation, it had no choice but to count the whole day and made a backup plan to extend it to the second day.

Fortunately, it was not explicitly stated that it would be free. Several senior officials discussed and disclosed the charging standards in the remarks column on the pretext that maintaining order, consultation and reception, security protection, additional employment, etc. would require a lot of additional expenses.

Except for the exemption for bidders, each other person will be charged a visit fee of 100m yuan. The order of visits will be determined according to the payment time. After the visit, a free snack will be provided.

If all registrants pay in full, the ticket revenue from Schinwag Auction Company alone can reach hundreds of millions of yuan, which is higher than the estimated reserve price of the auction items. It is really a good way to make money.

Netizens were filled with emotion, those who signed up cursed their greed for money, and those who didn't get the chance clapped their hands and applauded.

The deadline for applicants to pay is 9 p.m., and the auction company's intention to make extra money is obvious.

Because Mu Liang signed up to bid very early, he was ranked first in line with the principle of priority for bidders, and he could bring one person into the venue to watch it up close.

Next, the two discussed the arrangements for attending the "Purple Marrow Jade Centipede" meeting tomorrow.

Zishu Yinyue has already learned the relevant information and is very clear about the auction company's temporary decision. When she heard that Mu Liang said that she was the first in line and was going to take her to visit, she felt happy.

5:30 p.m.

We still haven't received any messages from the two escort mechas, so it's estimated that the second coordinate point is gone.

According to the instructions of the two people, if no treasure is found at the second coordinate point, they will search separately from the bottom of the sea to the third coordinate point.

Because the distance between the two points is about 50 nautical miles, based on their speed on the seabed, it can be reached in just over an hour without having to resurface to pick up and drop off.

18:00.

The two of them had already sat down to dine in the private room of the "Mok K and Strange Beast Hall", preparing to avoid the problem of hunger in case good news came.

As soon as he finished ordering the menu, Mu Liang received a notification that the remittance from the Earth and Star Administration had arrived.

Click on the mobile phone account module of the identity card, and you will see the new income of 2,375,000 star coins.

The remarks column explains that the silver is purchased at the listed price, subject to a 10% tax policy, and a tax of 237,500 star coins is deducted.

Mu Liang explained the details and directly transferred 1.2 million earth star coins to Zishu Yinyue's account.

Zishu Yinyue waved her hand and returned the excess money, thus deciding the distribution amount.

Mu Liang was finally divided into 1.2 million Earth Star Coins. He was used to "taking advantage", so he didn't say much at the moment and nodded in approval.

The two of them are used to a tacit understanding, so the impression of how much money they have is not that profound.

7pm.

Just when the two of them were worried, they each received messages from the escort mecha.

Content display:

The third coordinate point also only has scattered gold sand, and does not meet the conditions for picking up instructions.

During its detour, "Small Ion" passed by the edge of an extinct volcano crater that sank to a depth of 3,200 meters, and accidentally scanned and found many scattered spots of platinum alloy.

After the two escort mechas met at the third coordinate point, they returned to the crater of the extinct volcano and released a special magnetic field to travel, absorbing a large amount of palladium, rhodium, yttrium, ruthenium, cobalt, osmium, copper, magnets and other mixed metals, weighing more than 3 tons.

Among them, the amount of primary metal exceeds half a ton, which meets the requirements of the order.

"Wow, these two guys can also mine, that's amazing!" The two of them shouted almost in unison.

"Let them collect metals within 5 kilometers of the volcano's diameter first, and we will decide based on the situation." Mu Liang urged.

Knowing that it might take a lot of time to pick them up, the two quickly unified the contents and issued new instructions to the two escort mechas respectively, and then began to carefully analyze the relevant data returned.

An hour later, the two of them came up with their own opinions and ideas based on the comparative analysis of metal elements on the Earth and Starry Sky Network, as well as related information such as uses.

"There are so many platinum alloys here, and they are clustered into piles. It is obviously not within the scope of natural platinum alloys and is probably related to volcanoes."

Zishu Yinyue didn't know much about it, so he wasn't very sure about it.

Muliang made a preliminary analysis of his inferences and explained his views step by step.

"Based on the information I reviewed, I judge that this submarine extinct volcano should have been an active volcano on land in ancient times."

"The volcano happens to be located in a platinum series metal vein zone. The magma is continuously melted, precipitated, and erupted at high temperatures, spraying some of the randomly combined platinum alloys to the periphery of the crater."

"After countless years, the tectonic plates subsided, and this area became part of the seafloor, and the attached sediments also fell together."

"Under the influence of sea water, the volcanic magma cools and no longer erupts."

"After countless years of ocean current movement and seawater erosion, the light substances drifted far away with the currents, while most of the heavy substances remained not far from where they were. We happened to find them. This is the God of Wealth's favor for us."

Zishu Yinyue asked in broken Chinese, "Who is the God of Wealth?"

"Similar to the Stone Empress believed in by the Hijin Empire." Mu Liang responded in the Hijin language.

"How much of this do you think you can pack?" Zishu Yinyue asked.

"Logically speaking, platinum series metals will not have high ore-rich content."

"The fact that these platinum alloys can be found outside the crater shows that the volcano covers a large area and the internal magma movement is very intense, which is why this result occurs."

"The images show that the two guard mechas have not yet explored the inside of the crater. If the guess is correct, the cooling rocks inside should be adhered to heavier platinum alloy smelting, and the harvest will definitely be richer than the outside."

The more Mu Liang talked, the more excited he became, his eyes gleaming.

"Look at you, your saliva is almost dripping out and you still haven't wiped it off." Zi Shu Yinyue teased him.

"No?"

Mu Liang touched his mouth and found that there was only a small amount of oil stains.

"I checked the purchase price disclosed by the Earth and Star Administration. These platinum series metals are very valuable. The price is almost 2/3 of gold. This time we are going to make a fortune." Zishu Yinyue changed the subject and said .

"You're right. With 5 times the amount of ordinary metal as supplement, I calculated that the price should be reached."

"The god of fire will bless us, and we will definitely find many tons of precious metals."

Zishu Yinyue began to pray, leaving Mu Liang speechless.

In fact, as long as Mu Liang retrieves the relevant content in the escort mecha "Little Ion" database, he will soon discover that the uses of platinum series precious metals are not limited to special bearings, precision instruments, and anti-corrosion equipment, but also high-end robots, various Flying saucers and shuttle starships are inseparable from it.

The two of them did not know that the price of platinum series precious metals on the planet Wubul was equivalent to gold.

It's just that in order to acquire such minerals at a lower cost, the Hijin Empire slightly increased the price based on the local exchange price of Earth Star.

There is still a relatively loose time window, and the Earth and Star Administration is not in a hurry to raise prices.

8:30 pm.

The two of them didn't wait for the news for a long time, so they simply returned to the flying saucer to rest first.

10:30 pm.

The escort mecha "Little Chef" surfaced and sent back a message:

Scanning estimates indicate that the total weight of the mixed metal exceeds 23 tons, of which more than 4 tons are terrestrial metals.

Good guys, the two of them added it together and converted it all into 24k gold, which is equivalent to a weight of 2.65 tons. It is richer than the treasure at the first coordinate point.

"Get rich, get rich!"

The two little guys hugged each other and laughed happily.

"Hehe, with 2 million more Earth Star Coins, there is hope for buying the 'Purple Marrow Jade Centipede'." Zishu Yinyue thought about her expectations.

"Haha, my game tribe will be built to be more majestic, more powerful, and more distinctive, and become the number one game center on Earth." Mu Liang was equally cheerful.

"Mom said that if I get a lot of treasures, I must publicize it and let everyone on Earth know my name." Zishu Yinyue said mischievously.

"Why?" Mu Liang was very puzzled.

"You're so stupid. I don't understand this yet. I just want others to know that I am very rich."

Zi Shu Yinyue put her hands on her hips and looked like a wealthy person.

"Oh, you have to wait until I buy the 'Purple Marrow Jade Centipede' at a high price, so that I can transfer it to you smoothly." Mu Liang suddenly realized.

"It's smart. My parents don't want to be directly involved in this matter. It's the best choice for me to handle it alone." Zishu Yinyue explained.

Mu Liang was very emotional, "Haha, your parents seem to care about the opinions of the fleet members. This is a great knowledge of high-ranking officials, and it is difficult for me to apply what I have learned."

How did he know that at his young age, he could understand so many truths and be considered a prodigy-level genius.

"With 2.65 tons of gold equivalent, after deducting 10% tax, there are nearly 2.4 million Earth Star Coins left. This time you are sharing 1.3 million Earth Star Coins. I can't let you suffer losses all the time."

While driving the flying saucer to the new coordinate sea area, Mu Liang first distributed the treasures clearly.

"OK, no problem."

Zishu Yinyue was happily counting her account balance. Thinking of the terrifying price of the "Blue Jade Gold Snake Jade" in the empire's auction that her mother had told her, she realized that she was still a pauper.

Turning on his SIM card phone, Zishu Yinyue clicked on the official website of the Earth and Star Administration, and finally saw the treasure hunting news he posted before going to bed.

The official website impressively launched a photo of the World War II sunken gold and silver found by two people. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by printed words, the relevant writing was deliberately hidden, the coordinates of the sea area where the treasure was sunk were changed, and the discovery process was briefly described with vague modifications, so that People can't tell the difference.

"Hey, Xiao Wenzi, the big news about the two of us gold mining has been exposed. Many people likened us to gold adventurers. It's so interesting."

Zi Shu Yinyue looked like she wanted to be beaten.

"I've convinced you. It's true that Wang Po is selling her melons and bragging about herself."

Mu Liang pretended to sigh, but he couldn't hide his excitement, and there was no trace of sadness on his face.
