The 450 billion star coins plus the 190 billion star coins sold in the first auction item, the sum of these money is enough to build a conventional fleet.

"460 billion!" The bidder was Brumor.

Ingersoll is the only one who takes his course: "470 billion!"

Then there is Murphy Doyle, who is from the Zoro Empire and is somewhat similar to Byron: "480 billion!"

Bidding has become slower and slower, and it seems that the three are weighing whether it is worth continuing to bid.

"500 billion!" Ingersoll held PDA's hand and shook slightly. He was still rational and did not crush the things he held tightly in his hand like he did when he was angry. Of course, PDA was very strong, and with his strength, this was undoubtedly a challenge.

"500 billion star coins..." The audience was in an uproar, and the quotation of the second lot had exceeded that of the first lot.

Murphy from the Zoro Empire was silent! Brummer from the Phoenix Empire was also silent!

The host has confirmed the offer for the second time, and the wooden hammer that set the tripod is hanging in the air, and the strength is accumulated on his wrist.

"505 billion!" Suddenly, the new offer broke the bid record again. Brumor couldn't help it. He wanted to try again. What if 500 billion is Ingersoll's bottom line?

"510 billion!" Murphy also reported the same idea.

Ingersoll was so angry that he was hesitant to continue to increase the price.

But at this moment, Samuel Leslie, the representative of the Sulu Empire who had already given up bidding, suddenly killed a move and made a big spear.

His offer was "550 billion!"

There was a burst of exclamation from the first floor hall, 40 billion yuan, and the price increase of 40 billion yuan was definitely a big deal!

In the fifth private room from the right on the second floor, MacDonald's face was already as gloomy as water. As "Iga Industry", who has a deep hatred with Captain Tang Fangtang, he has never relaxed his surveillance of Tang Fang and others. With their means, how could he not know the cooperation relationship between Captain and "Somar" auction house?

Seven days ago, 10 pieces of Ipsilon ruins sold at a price of 15 billion star coins. This may be a huge sum for ordinary enterprises, but it is just a drizzle for heavy military enterprises. Tens of billions of star coins are not enough to make "Morning Star Casting" fully operated, and even the construction cost of the dock is not enough.

To be honest, compared with military giants like "Iga Industrial", he was still a small shrimp 7 days ago, but now his net worth of 800 billion is enough to match some large enterprises. Not only is the construction cost of the dock, but he also has a large amount of very considerable working capital.

With this money in hand, even if the prices of iridium-containing minerals and cesium-containing minerals doubled, it is probably difficult to effectively suppress the rise of "Morning Star Casting".

McDonald almost bit his back teeth, and the pda had already been thrown into the corner by him. What's ridiculous is that the "Somall" auction house is very realistic. The quality of this batch of customized versions of the pda is simply outrageous. The display screen is not broken and the components are not damaged, which saves "Iga Industrial" 10,000 star coins.

It took McDonald a long time to calm down his anger. Finally, he found a reason to comfort himself. Tang Fang got a lot of money. But how did this money come from? It was raised by auctioning good things at the bottom of the box!

If we look at it from another perspective, they not only did not lose, but won a big victory, which is tantamount to cutting off the firewood from the bottom of the pot. Now the Tang side has no way out. Losing these two complete Ipsilon ruins means that the "Morning Star Casting" has also lost a certain degree of core competitiveness. Because this is a behavior of capital and enemy, it will have negative effects of one increase and the other decrease!

"550 billion every time, are there any friends who have raised the price? 550 billion!"

“…550 billion second time!”

The host waved the wooden hammer and his eyes were shining with a different kind of brilliance.

Ingersoll, Murphy, and Blumer were all silent. No one expected that Samuel would play a resurgence at this time and raise the price by 40 billion at once.

"555.5 billion!" Murphy from the Zoro Empire tentatively increased the price.

As an imperial country, His Majesty the Emperor can use the treasury funds to the greatest extent without having to explain to his subjects. Moreover, there has been almost no major war in the Zoro Empire in recent years. It is not difficult to put out funds enough to build a conventional fleet to bid for the complete Ipsilon aircraft.

The host swallowed the words to his mouth back into his stomach. He relaxed his right hand and clenched it a little bit. A layer of sweat had stuck to the handle of the mallet, which came from his palm.

555.5 billion, a good number, Tang Fang smiled, feeling an inexplicable sense of humor. It seems that Mr. Murphy is quite humorous.

In fact, he was wrong. Viscount Murphy has always been a very serious person. The reason why he reported the number "5555" was not for the purpose of adjusting the tension on the scene, because there was a box of cigarettes on the coffee table and three gold-plated "5" printed on the exquisitely packaged cigarette box.

The woman lying in his arms had a brooch on her chest, which looked like a "5" that was coming across.

Of course, these are indirect factors, and the most direct reason comes from Viscount Murphy's hobby, because his favorite player wears No. 55 jersey.

So, he was very serious, but extremely funny and reported a "555.5 billion!"

He could swear to the sky, he didn't do this intentionally, he was really a very serious person.

"600 billion!"

Samuel's voice was calm and steady, as if he was stating an insignificant little thing.

“Wow…”

The audience was in an uproar, and the guests turned around and stared at the fourth private room from the left.

Another 40 billion! Representatives from the Sulu Empire raised the bid twice and directly pushed the auction price to the 600 billion mark. Domineering, really domineering!

Murphy's face was like the weather in the rainy season, cloudy as if painted with a layer of ink. The woman hugged in his arms and didn't dare to move, because she knew better than anyone else that Viscount Murphy was a very serious person, and even a irritable person.

"600 billion once...600 billion twice...600 billion...600 billion deal!"

"Congratulations...congratulations to Mr. Samuel for winning the second auction."

The host smiled happily, 600 billion! This is the highest value auction item he handled.

A burst of warm applause sounded from the first floor hall, but the atmosphere on the second floor was completely different. The doors of several private rooms opened one after another, and Ingersoll and others walked out with cold faces. They quickly left the scene from the convenient passage.

Viscount Murphy is also here, and his beloved, but compared to the woman's face, there was a little less smile and a few more redness. If you observe carefully, it should be a palm print.

Samuel should have been very happy to win the Gods transport plane, but in fact the expression on his face was extremely confused. He didn't know why he bought the aircraft for 600 billion, and there was no reason at all. He had already chosen to give up at 400 billion. Why? Why did he join the bidding for Murphy, Ingersoll and Brummer at the last moment.

He couldn't figure out what was wrong with him, as if an invisible hand was manipulating his body, pressing the bidding button again and again. But his mind was very clear. He knew what he was doing and understood more clearly the consequences of doing so, but he couldn't help but do so.

This feeling is very contradictory, but it is extremely real, so he is very confused.

If we use a more vivid metaphor, it is that there are two of them living in our minds, one repeatedly reminding the brain not to shoot. The other said that it should shoot and must shoot. And it violently pushed the former down and completely occupied the control of the entire body.

Finally, Samuel came to a conclusion that the former is called reason and the latter is called impulse, and no one is manipulating him.

He regretted it and was even more upset.

Before attending the auction, the embassy head, Ryder Peters, the first-class Count of the Empire, told him that it would be better to win the second auction item within 500 billion, but he was fine, and he urged to raise the price to 600 billion. He could not regret it in public, otherwise what would the Sulu Empire have to gain a foothold in "Babylon".

"Why do you explain to Lord Ryder when you go back..." Samuel really wanted to slap himself twice.

He actually didn't know that the name of the second villain in his mind was not "impulse" or "intense". It has a very particular name - neuroparasitic.

…………

The Immortals sold for 190 billion yuan, which was obtained from the Monya Empire, and the transport aircraft sold for 600 billion yuan, which was obtained from the Sulu Empire.

Shortly after the auction ended, this news was like a tsunami, sweeping across the streets and alleys of the "Air Garden". If 10 pieces of Ipsilon remains sold 7 days ago were added, the total auction trend this time will reach 800 billion.

Who is not tempted by such a huge sum of money? Who is not jealous?

Ordinary people are most jealous, and in most cases they use this news as a topic of conversation after dinner. The senior executives of some large and medium-sized enterprises have begun to use some secret channels to inquire about the whereabouts of 800 billion yuan. After all, if this money enters the market in related fields, it will inevitably have an unignorable impact on the existing economy.

In addition to the large and medium-sized enterprises that were striking, there was also a hand that could only be huge and reached into this vortex. No, to be precise, it reached into Tang Fang's pocket. Its target was the money!

The day after the auction ended, Tang Fang received a notice from the tax department of "Air Garden" that it would impose personal income tax on the auction at a tax rate of 5%.

Grant was very angry about this because generally, auctions like this only require 2% personal income tax, but the tax department of "Air Garden" gave a 5% tax rate, and 40 billion was gone, which was 40 billion, worth 80 longsword-class frigates.

Why does the Tang side need to pay such high taxes? According to the official explanation.

First, he violated regulations and auctioned under the name of the "Roamer Technology Consortium". Because the Star Alliance military and the "Roamer Technology Consortium" have many cooperation projects, both in bidding and auctioning, they have tax exemptions. Cory Christian did not know what agreement he reached with him, and privately sent these Ipsilon relics to the "Somal" auction house for auction in the name of the company. Indeed, the board of directors of the "Roamer Technology Consortium" had given old Cory the instructions to "do cheaply", but this does not mean that the board of directors acknowledges such violation of the laws and regulations of the Star Alliance. Therefore, this is a tax evasion act carefully planned by Cory Christian and him.

Second, according to the Covenant law, foreign merchants need to pay more taxes when engaging in commercial activities in "Air Garden". Just like the personal income tax for auctions, the tax rate is 3%. Of course, ordinary foreign merchants, such as Philips and Old Benny, can apply for tax refunds according to the relevant international trade regulations of "Babylon", which requires the embassy to issue a certificate, but when they arrive at the Tang side, would they ask him to go to the embassy of the Monastery Empire?

To sum up, the Star Covenant tax department added a 2% fine on the basis of 3% personal income tax, so it became 5%.

Tang Fang did not speak or protest, and allowed the tax department to transfer 40 billion star coins from the corporate account.

Grant was very puzzled by this because it did not conform to the captain's style. He was a thorny head. He had to bow his head under the eaves. This situation was destined to be out of reach for him.

Compared to the deputy captain's confusion, Tang Fang was considering another thing. Someone at the senior management of the "Roamer Technology Consortium" was playing a word game. Old Keli would definitely not betray him because he dared not. If it weren't for him, who would it be?

...I believe that some people in the "Air Garden" government can no longer sit still.

Those guys who were hiding in the dark and staring at him would not have thought that he would raise startup funds through this method, and that would be 800 billion yuan. Although the personal income tax of 40 billion is not enough to hurt him, it can really disgust him. At the same time, it also passed him a warning: "Don't want to go against the government, your words and deeds are under our monitoring."

On the third day, White David came to the hotel and drove away Old Corey's car. When Tang asked if something happened to the "Roamer Technology Consortium", White's answer was: "No".

Tang Fang noticed a situation where his middle finger had changed the engagement ring. Although the shape was still the same, the oxidation level on the surface of the ring was much higher.

He sent White David Tang back to the villa to talk to Grant and Aross. In the afternoon, the three of them went out together and came to the administrative area of ​​the "Air Garden" and had a verbal battle with the people from the tax department. He even had a fight with the director and the district head.

"It turns out that Boss Tang, who is 'Morning Star Casting', will be frustrated..." This sentence comes from a female tax officer, who is very mean because she has always hated people who evade taxes the most.

…………

At the same time, in the outer space of the fourth planet of the "Babylonian" star system, a cargo ship flying from the "Air Garden" was bogged into the "Carno" space station where the embassy of the Monya Empire was located.

If the 12 planets to which the "Babylonian" star system belongs to is the most special, it is not a "utopia", nor a "Tifeng", nor a "Toratir" or "Alkaissi", but "Eibar"!

The size of "Eibar" is similar to that of "utopia". As early as the time when the Covenant and the Jupiter Empire Expeditionary Force were at war, it was occupied by the fleets of the countries as a supply station for the joint fleet on the front line to support the Covenant to resist the Jupiter Expeditionary Force.

The reason why countries chose "Eibar" as a logistics base to establish space stations instead of a more beautiful "utopia" is because it is too close to the "Babylonian" border and is easily attacked by the Expeditionary Force. The "Eibar" is different. There are a large number of early warning facilities on the edge of the "Babylonian" and the Covenant fleet garrison. Even if the Expeditionary Force launches a blitzkrieg, it is difficult to cause a fatal blow to "Eibar".

The star alliance was in a weak position at that time, even though they knew that the inland countries had their own small plans, they were unable to resist and could only let them go.

Later, the situation in Tianchao stabilized, and the "Babylon" Special Zone was established. The countries gradually withdrew the fleets placed there. However, the military port built in "Eibar" was not demolished earlier, but continued to be used as "embassys and consulates", thus forming a very special scene.

Over the gray-brown "Eibar", more than a dozen large space stations revolve around like satellites, flying slowly along established orbits.

The embassy of the Monya Empire is located in the "Carno" space station. It used to be a standard military harbor, but after the evacuation of the Imperial fleet, it was slowly transformed into a civilian harbor, and only a few of them were retained as a logistics supply place for the garrison fleet.

Two days ago, as soon as the auction ended, the Immortal was transported to "Carno" by the garrison fleet and was not transported back to the country as soon as possible, because the Ambassador was very smart, and he would never rush to send the Immortal to Mengya without the Imperial fleet in place.

What are the old foxes in the Star Covenant's parliament for cultivating pirate forces? Is it just to curb the expansion of the stronghold's forces? It may not be... Some things cannot be done by the official, but pirates can do them.

Therefore, he had to wait until the empire's support force forced the pirate group outside the absolutely controlled area of ​​the Star Alliance government, which was the right time to transport the auction items back to China.

However, the ambassador guessed the beginning, expected the end, and did a lot of targeted work, but he never expected that something would go wrong in the middle.

He was sitting on the leather sofa in the office with his legs crossed, fantasizing that he was receiving the commendation of Corkraf I when a warning message was sent to him.

Something happened! Something happened in the C area where the Immortals were stored!

Area C is a military controlled area of ​​"Carno", with several guards stationed. Unless soldiers mutiny or strong enemies attack, something will never happen.

Just as a needle pierced into his butt, Eisenhower stood up suddenly, turned off the classical music being played by the multi-function terminal, took away the exquisitely shaped and complex patterns on the table, and woke up the remote monitoring module.
