Interstellar boss, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 1077 Physical Gold (Second Update, Monthly Ticket +)

Huo Yushen caught a glimpse of her smile and was slightly surprised, not knowing what she was laughing at.

But this smile gave him a little confidence, and he still tried hard to convince Xia Chujian.

"Xia Chujian, tell me, what conditions do you want me to go to that place with you to take a look?"

Xia Chujian didn't expect that Huo Yushen would actually let her set her own conditions!

Do you trust her character so much?
Xia Chujian snorted in his heart and said calmly: "If you want me to take action once, that's fine."

"Let's follow the rules of bounty hunters. I'll make you a price. If you can accept it, I'll take your order."

Huo Yushen's voice was cold and helpless: "...Okay, you say."

Xia Chujian opened his mouth without hesitation: "Fifty taels of gold, if you are willing to pay, I can take it!"

Gold is an extremely rare metal in the Beichen Empire.

Because all planets do not produce gold, the gold mines on the planets were brought here in ancient times by the impact of stellar bodies caused by supernova explosions.

After more than 10,000 years of development, the six habitable planets of the Beichen Empire have basically no gold mines left.

Moreover, most of the gold produced was occupied by the royal family and the four major families.

The small amount circulating outside is also controlled by nobles below the four major families.

Among ordinary people, only very wealthy people can own one or two pieces of pure gold jewelry.

And the sizes are not big, most are rings, a small number are bracelets, and even rarer are necklaces.

Therefore, when the Beichen Empire's space exploration forces explore the outer galaxies, searching for gold mines is also one of their tasks.

But compared with other special metals and exotic metals, the applicability of gold is actually not that high.

It exists more as a symbol of wealth, and is used to make various expensive jewelry. It is also the general equivalent stipulated by the laws of the Beichen Empire.

For ordinary people, it is not a big deal to never own gold in their life.

This thing cannot be eaten or drunk, but for ordinary people, it is really nothing.

Of course, this does not apply to people like Xia Chujian, who have liked golden things since childhood.

If she took out that box of natural pure gold ore, she would be rich enough to rival a country.

But she won't sell it.

For her, it was a personal hobby, not hoarding.

According to the current gold price in the Beichen Empire, one gram of gold is worth ten thousand Beichen coins.

She wanted fifty taels, which was 2,500 grams of gold, worth 25 million Beichen coins.

It’s already a huge sum of money!
And there is no place to buy things with money...

Because the gold that the Beichen Empire can trade is all paper gold, that is, gold on the books, not real gold.

Therefore, Xia Chujian added: "...I want the real thing."

Huo Yushen's eyes moved slightly, and he thought, if he really needed 25 million in cash, he couldn't take it out immediately, and it would take some time to raise it.

But physical gold...

This girl probably doesn't know that her mother's favorite thing is also gold.

Therefore, Huo Yushen's family hoarded a lot of gold, whether it was gold nuggets, gold bars, gold bricks, or gold jewelry.

Moreover, his mother only loves pure gold, so all the gold in his family is of an outrageously high purity.

He dug several warehouses under his house to store gold.

Huo Yushen was relieved, his face was still calm, and he even said with some embarrassment: "...The transactions in the bank are all paper gold, where can I find physical gold now?"

Xia Chujian raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "This is not my problem, it's your problem."

"Again, if you have 50 taels of physical gold, I will take the order."

"If not...it's hot in the summer, I'm going to eat some ice watermelon to cool down."

After saying that, he terminated the encrypted video chat with Huo Yushen.

Huo Yushen received the encryption program, so Su Buyan could see him.

"What are you talking about? It's so confidential? I can't even listen?" Su Buyan glared at him with some dissatisfaction.

Huo Yushen said: "I can't help it, it's quite confidential."

"By the way, I need to go out for a while. When can you repair the mecha?"

Su Buyan looked at the progress of the instrument and said, "It will be almost done in two hours."

Huo Yushen said: "I'll come back in two hours."

He left the mecha studio without saying a word and quickly returned to his home on the outskirts of the imperial capital.

His mother, She Zhuyin, was still recovering from her injuries in the top medical cabin of the Dark Night Hunter headquarters building in the center of the imperial capital.

Huo Yushen went to the basement alone and followed the complicated procedures. It took him half an hour to finally open the door of the vault.

The dazzling golden light instantly fell.

Huo Yushen narrowed his eyes and thought, what's so good about these things?
I can’t eat or drink it. I don’t understand why some people like this kind of blinding thing so much.

He grabbed five small gold bars.

This type of gold bar is of standard design and has highly consistent purity and weight.

Each stick weighs ten taels, and five sticks weigh exactly fifty taels.

But the vault door happened to be open, and since I was already here, it would be a waste of time just to take the gold bars.

So he walked around the vault and took out two gold necklaces, two gold rings, two gold bracelets, and a shiny gold brick weighing about five kilograms.

After putting these things in a small safe, he carried it out of the vault and then used another cumbersome method to lock the vault door.

Then there were the heavy doors of the basement, and finally the stairs leading up. …

When Xia Chujian finished the video call, he also became a little interested in the situation in the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom.

She thought about it and decided to go home.

Although she thought about staying in the Exotic Beast Forest for a few days to prevent these little guys from disturbing Yingying's final review time, the situation has now changed seriously, and she still has to go back to the Internet to find out about the situation outside.

Xia Chujian immediately started the aircraft and flew south.

The aircraft was moving very fast and soon returned to the edge of the exotic beast forest. His home was not far ahead and he could already connect to the star network.

Xia Chujian opened the virtual display screen and began to search on the Star Internet to see if there was any news about the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom.

After searching through it, she found that there was a lot of information there, and it was quite consistent.

Basically, it means: "The star field over there in Dongtianyuan Divine Country is out of sight..."

This "invisible" certainly does not refer to the naked eye, but to various astronomical radio telescopes.

If even these devices cannot be seen, then there must be a big problem in the star field of the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom.

Xia Chujian narrowed his eyes and thought, it would be a good idea if the star field exploded and everyone was expelled.

Of course, their field personnel who were carrying out missions in the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom were truly caught in the crossfire.

Thinking about it this way, she felt that should she still help Huo Yushen and go over there to take a look?
Although she didn't think she was better than Huo Yushen.

Even Huo Yushen couldn’t get in, so how could she get in?
However, it would be quite interesting if I could go there at public expense, observe closely, and then come back and let Liushun expose the information online.

In this interested state of mind, Xia Chujian happily parked the aircraft in his own hangar.

He woke up Sanzong and helped him move Wufu, Xiaojiuxiang, Sixi, Awu and Axuan to their rooms at home, and then they went back to their rooms to sleep.

……

The next morning, Xia Chujian opened his eyes and found that it was only half past five in the morning.

It was so early, she could still take a nap.

But when she habitually picked up the quantum optical computer watch carrier from the bedside table, she found that Huo Yushen had actually sent her a message.

[Huo Yushen]: I was above your house and got fifty taels of gold.

Xia Chujian: "!!!"

She sat up suddenly and rubbed her eyes in disbelief.

Looking at the message again, it was indeed fifty taels of gold!
Where did this guy find the gold? !
Xia Chujian replied quickly.

[Xia Chujian]: Is it physical gold? I said, paper gold doesn’t count!

[Fok Yushen]: Physical gold, come and see for yourself.

Xia Chujian threw off the quilt and got out of bed, went to the bathroom to quickly wash up, changed into simple hunting casual clothes, and released her Xuannv Qingyao titanium mecha, which was disguised as Shao Siming's black and silver mecha.

She drove the mecha and flew out of the window in a hurry, and flew directly into the air according to the star coordinates given to her by Huo Yushen.

Above the clouds, a huge bat-like fighter gradually appeared.

He was obviously in stealth mode just now.

Although Xia Chujian has always said that this Bat-fighter is miniature, her reference is the Special Security Bureau's Bat-fighter that covers the sky and is as big as a medium-sized city!

The Bat fighter in front of us is actually quite large when viewed from a distance.

It is not as big as a medium-sized city, but it is about the size of a large interstellar spaceship.

Xia Chujian drove the mecha and flew in through the open bottom cabin door of the bat fighter.

Huo Yushen was waiting for her there.

He was carrying a small safe.

Xia Chujian came in, put away his fully enclosed helmet, and stood in front of him wearing only an eyepiece that covered half of his face.

Huo Yushen quickly opened the safe.

Five golden bars appeared in front of her.

Huo Yushen said: "These are five gold bars, each weighing ten taels, and the purity is almost perfect."

Given Xia Chujian's love for gold, he naturally knew what grade gold with perfect purity was.

Let me put it this way, the box of pure natural gold ore that she got from Green Star, although the purity was very high, it was not perfect.

Xia Chujian was surprised and asked, "Where did you get such pure gold?"

She reached out and picked up a gold bar.

The mecha's mechanical fingers touched the gold bar and began to test its purity.

Sure enough, when the data of perfect purity appeared on her eyepiece display, Xia Chujian couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This gold is so... perfect!

She swept her fingers over the other four gold bars, and the same test data appeared on her eyepiece display.

Xia Chujian withdrew his fingers reluctantly.

She asked seriously: "Since you can afford the reward, I'll take the order."

"But we have to explain what you want to achieve."

"If I can't get in, will you take back the gold?"

This is the second update, including 3600+ monthly tickets for April!

There will be a new update at 05:00 in the evening!

PS: Even in the interstellar age, gold is still a precious metal and cannot be artificially synthesized. You can search what conditions are required for artificial synthesis of gold... Don't take it for granted that gold is a common commodity in the interstellar age, that's not the case... Now if someone tells you that he has artificially synthesized pure gold and can sell it to you at a lower price, don't doubt it, he must be a liar.
