Beneath Deep Space

Chapter 537 A Big Harvest! (5000 Words)

During the waiting process, everyone was a little anxious. This feeling was like a homeboy suddenly running into a bustling city, and seemed a little uncomfortable...

This was also the first time that the new human beings had formally come into contact with alien life in a peaceful way...

Soon, in a state of anxiety, an image popped up on the screen, and a big-headed creature appeared!

Frog-like eyes, a mouth, various uneven wrinkles on the forehead, and three short tentacles at the top.

At first glance, he or "it" looks a bit like Homo erectus!

But it is obvious that this species is not Homo erectus, because according to the text introduction, this species was not born in that specific time period.

"...There is actually a big deal? Oh no, dear guest, what deal are you talking about?" This "multi-ball man" said in the universal language of the galaxy.

But from the perspective of Yifeng and others, he seemed a little absent-minded.

I don't know if this alien species is originally so decadent, or if it is really so...

Behind him, there is a group of "multi-ball people" with similar appearances, wearing various equipment excitedly, and then ran out of the door. They seem to be doing some activities.

Only this unlucky guy on duty was disturbed by the new humans and could only stay in front of the screen...so that this representative looked a little unhappy.

But he still has basic professional qualities, and quickly adjusted his mood, showing a few big teeth, as if he was smiling.

Seeing this "multi-ball person" just open the instant messaging like calling at home, without hiding his appearance, everyone was slightly surprised.

"Is this market, or even the entire Milky Way, really so peaceful?"

Yu Yifeng could only give himself an explanation: "...Well, in this kind of trading market, with Hicks civilization as a platform, there is basically no possibility of being clever. It's just an appearance, it really doesn't count..."

In order to show etiquette, Yu Yifeng and others discussed for a while and decided to...disclose their appearance.

"Hello, multi-ball civilization." Soldier Zhao Yao stood in front of the camera, wearing power armor, standing upright, and appeared on the screen in a military style.

"Oh, Homo erectus! A new Homo erectus civilization!" The "multi-ball man" saw Zhao Yao's appearance and immediately exclaimed loudly.

Seeing Zhao Yao's appearance, he secretly guessed: This Homo erectus civilization may be a kind of militarism due to long-term wars, and it is a bit like the brutal Tiekui civilization.

"This kind of military-managed civilization is the most difficult to deal with."

"Those who have been fighting for a long time are crazy. This guy... Could it be that the Tiekui civilization has changed its name?!"

The multi-ball man thought secretly and squeezed out a smile: "Hello, new human civilization, you can call me by my name, Banla!"

"We sincerely hope that you can win this long interstellar war. Applause!" "Banla" said to himself, clapping his hands and feet.

Everyone discussed in a low voice in a place where the camera could not see.

Many interstellar civilizations in the Milky Way are slightly inclined towards Homo erectus, which they know, and this is also the main reason why the new humans reveal their appearance.

Of course, it is not ruled out that this "Banla" is intentional, wanting to lower people's psychological vigilance.

Yu Yifeng did not waste words, and typed on the side: "I want to trade with you a technology trade of more than 50,000 points! Are you qualified to decide?"

Hearing this, "Banla" was slightly surprised, "Please wait, I need to consult my companions."

Then he picked up the communicator, blabarabha saying something, as if contacting his companions.

Then, he clapped his hands and feet: "I have obtained the authorization for this transaction! Applause!"

"But because I have a small number of people, it is troublesome to select a large amount of technology, and your civilization... The credit record is indeed relatively low... Ahem..."

"Dear guest, can you provide a small amount of high-value technology?"

Seeing that this "half-pulled" was so straightforward, even smiling with narrowed eyes, Yu Yifeng also nodded and said: "Yes!"

There was not much contradiction in the other party's words. The credit record of the new human civilization was zero, and it was good to find a trading partner.

For the first transaction, they didn't care too much about a little loss.

Although Yu Yifeng was a little skeptical in his heart, what was so important that the group of guys were too lazy to come back and even too lazy to do the transaction?

"Could it be... This multi-ball civilization itself is so lazy?" He felt a little strange. But soon, he dispelled his doubts in his heart. What kind of ideology the other party had had had nothing to do with the new humans.

"Great! Applause for our friendship!" "Banla" was very satisfied after hearing the reply, and clapped his hands and feet again.

The next thing went smoothly. With Hicks Market as an intermediary platform, there would basically not be too much fraud. It was just a matter of "economical" and "uneconomical".

For the first large-scale transaction, the new humans were not very eager to take advantage, and of course they did not want to be taken advantage of too much by the other party, so as to avoid looking like a fool.

Obviously, the other party's thinking is a bit weird. Some places are very lenient, and some places are very strict. The communication is a bit strange. Several negotiators are sweating.

All kinds of arguments and discussions, the mall is like a battlefield. You can give in a step, but you can't give in step by step. You don't need to stick to your bottom line.

As the discussion deepened, all the new humans gradually felt the bottom line of "multi-sphere civilization". They were very eager for "high-tech" and were willing to pay a higher price to buy it, but for the existing "low-tech", they thought it was worthless and didn't even want to refer to it or learn from its strengths.

"Too utilitarian." Yu Yifeng thought to himself.

18 hours later, the first batch of transactions was completed.

"Electron cloud topology, Gimidovic's mathematical analysis, light stagnation effect, new aerogel, anti-neutron generation principle... all very practical technologies!"

Dr. Rimbaud whispered in the corner, extremely excited.

He couldn't wait to get this batch of technology!

People know that these things are very practical, but they have not been studied too deeply, because they require a lot of experience accumulation, and they cannot be completed immediately by being "smart". Practice is more important.

Now, it appears directly in front of us, how can we not be tempted?

"This kind of win-win exchange is indeed much cheaper than buying directly from the store, and there is no tax!" Yu Yifeng thought to himself.

In the first batch of transactions, they picked out a lot of technologies from the "multi-ball civilization", more than a thousand items, these things are relatively trivial, and the general level is relatively low.

Of course, the price is also much lower than the standard price.

The technology level of the new human civilization is relatively high, and there is even a standard discipline of genetic dynamics!

The L4 discipline has considerable added value for the third-level civilization.

The "half-pulled" of the multi-ball civilization trembled with excitement. These things at the bottom of the box are not difficult, and there is no particularly big bottleneck. As long as there is enough time, they can always be developed. Therefore, most civilizations choose to study by themselves, and it is also extremely difficult to sell them.

Unexpectedly, this time, a big customer really came!

"Ah, L4 genetic dynamics, the number of transactions is 0! You are really a very generous civilization. We need to pay a considerable price to obtain these technologies in a level 4 civilization!"

"Applause! Applause!" Banla said enthusiastically.

Obviously, he was also very satisfied with this transaction.

I didn't expect that staying on duty would actually give me a bargain!

Even... he was a little embarrassed, because the things sold were indeed some low-end goods. As long as there is enough time, an interstellar civilization can always develop them.

"In theory, we are already climbing up the L4 discipline... These little things are prepared for subordinate civilizations to form a certain industrial system." Yu Yifeng also wrote on the screen shamelessly. His words were half true and half false, very confusing.

"We also want to learn from more civilizations and start from the bottom technology. If you have any good suggestions, you can provide us with some."

This time, the purchase must be full at one time. Anyway, this L4 technology was cheated from Quinton, and it does not actually involve the core of the new humans, so it is not painful to sell it.

However, the "number of transactions is zero" at the end also reminded him that every transaction of a technology will be recorded, and no one likes things that have been sold many times.

In other words, if you use an L4 technology and keep selling it to other civilizations, its value will only get lower and lower.

"Ban La" was stunned again when he heard his words: "So that's it! Subordinate civilization... This, the new human civilization wants to challenge the intellectual barrier? It's really ambitious."

"Applause!" He clapped his hands and feet, very hard, and even across the screen, he could faintly hear the "pa pa" sound. He secretly thought in his heart that this guy might really be the Tiekui civilization... Want to rely on this to turn the tables?

"We know almost all the resident civilizations in this trading market. If you need anything, let me introduce you... We all like high technology, high technology." "Ban La" went with the flow and gave a favor, anyway, this kind of favor is not worth anything...

"That's great, thank you! Applause!" Yu Yifeng saw that the other party liked to applaud very much, as if it was a unique etiquette of the civilization, so he asked Zhao Yao to applaud as well.

Zhao Yao clapped his hands with a straight face...

"Applause!"

The data started to be transmitted, and more than a thousand practical sciences were added at once. All the new human scientists were very excited.

"Happy cooperation! Applause!"

After the first transaction, both parties began to verify all the technologies with computers and their own algorithms.

There is no "controversial technology" here, which means that all the transaction targets have passed the verification of the Hicks market.

But the new humans always have to verify it themselves. Blindly trusting others is not a good thing.

When the technology was verified, "Banla" smiled completely. He definitely got the upper hand this time.

"Let's put it this way...we really got a big bargain. These ten tickets to experience the new world are given to you! The most important place in the Hicks market is here. You must not miss it!" Banla said very happily.

Although when he said these words, he felt a little pain in his heart, and he seemed to be a little carried away...

Immediately afterwards, came the second transaction...

The third transaction...

The transaction with the multi-spherical civilization ended in this way. It took 4 days and 17 hours, and everyone breathed a long sigh of relief. During these days, they barely slept.

On the credit record of the new human civilization, a small sentence was written to get rid of the predicament of having no credit record: "Completed three large-scale transactions with the multi-ball civilization, refer to the points contract for 33621 points."

Many staff members consumed too much energy and ate a few tubes of high-energy food, then immediately closed their eyes and even snored slightly.

Even a superhuman body can't handle this kind of high-intensity work.

It's so tiring, so tiring. Just choosing so many technologies and all kinds of negotiations have already exhausted them, but they are tired and happy!

Yu Yifeng looked out the window, his heart surging.

His brain was still immersed in the fanatical thoughts of great future development, and he did not calm down for a long time.

"After digesting this batch of technologies, the bottom layer is finally solidified, and we no longer have to worry... How much time has been saved!"

He vaguely understood why the trading activities in the universe were so prosperous.

In theory, there isn't much competition in this universe.

The universe is not lonely. Needless to say, life is universal. There are actually many intelligent creatures. These days, they have witnessed the interesting and vivid side.

Civilizations can communicate with each other in various ways. As long as too many core interests are involved, it is generally relatively peaceful.

Also because of the large filter, there are only a few who can reach interstellar civilization. Basically, low-level civilization consumes very few resources and can even be ignored.

Over tens of millions of years, there have been less than 3,000 civilizations registered at the Hicks Trading Market, and it is not ruled out that some civilizations have used multiple names.

In other words, each interstellar civilization can be allocated nearly...100 million stars.

Such a huge amount of resources can almost be described as infinite.

However, the resources consumed by interstellar civilization are still limited.

When more advanced civilizations are very rare, an old L4 civilization usually only occupies a few stars as its home star and does not occupy too many places.

Because huge stars are enough for L4 civilization. For example, the mass of the former solar system was equivalent to 330,000 Earths. The amount of energy that could be utilized by building a Dyson sphere was astronomical.

If it cannot pass the weak barrier, the L4 civilization's demand for resources is almost certain. Compared with the huge amount of matter in the universe, it is really not worth mentioning.

Moreover, the universe is too big. Even if there is curvature navigation, an overly large territory will only bring management inconvenience. Proxima Centauri, the closest star to the sun, is 4.3 light-years away. It takes 4.3 years for light to transmit a message. In this case, if the territory is too large, civilization will easily be divided and weakened.

"So to address these issues, many interstellar civilizations will occupy several nearby stars for development."

"If a solar system is fully developed, it will not be a problem to develop a population of trillions."

"The gap between the strength and weakness of this universe is really too big. If you haven't passed the second screening, you can only do this... You can't use more resources."

Passing the second screening is another huge leap, and may even mean gaining greater freedom.

For example, the Hicks civilization is not a native civilization of the Milky Way at all. It comes from the Virgo extragalactic galaxy 40 million light-years away.

This is just a corner of their tour.

"Opening up a trading market is nothing more than doing a good thing."

Marginal civilizations also come from the Large Magellanic Cloud. Traveling to the Milky Way is just a tour.

According to this probability statistics, there are really very few high-level civilizations that can overcome the "weak intelligence barrier".

The entire galaxy, in millions of years, will not last more than... one hand, or even less.

"However, there are not many battles among low-level interstellar civilizations. Why do high-level interstellar civilizations have a series of conflicts?" Yu Yifeng frowned tightly.

"And...for such a long time, the number of ordinary interstellar civilizations seems to be too rare. After hundreds of millions of years, billions of years of accumulation, the number of interstellar civilizations should not only be three thousand."

"There is always a population explosion of some civilizations, like locusts, breeding hundreds of billions, or billions of billions of people. What should be done at this time? Have they disappeared or been destroyed?"

"Just like the Metamos civilization, although it declined due to the collapse of the system, it will not... be completely extinct, right? A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how it declines, an interstellar civilization will not be completely extinct like low-level civilizations. ! Where did they go again?" These were all kinds of questions in Yu Yifeng's heart. These questions lingered in his mind and refused to disappear for a long time.

Soon, he came up with several guesses: "First, what we see so far is just the appearance of peace. Destroyer civilizations with different ideologies may still be very aggressive. They will devour these weak people. civilization to obtain more technology..."

"Second, these interstellar wars for unknown reasons are just to reduce the number of civilizations..."

"Third... Is it related to that eternal world? A large number of interstellar civilizations have gone to that place? But, what is the reason that makes them abandon all their current foundations and run to another unknown place..." Yu Yifeng touched his chin, feeling a little puzzled.

"Alas..." He sighed.

Since I can't figure it out for the time being, I won't think about it.

He quickly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep...
