Chapter 930 What is a rich man
A month passed slowly, and the world's rich began to gather in London. This time, many invisible rich people were blown out.

Originally, Christie's prepared an auction room that could accommodate 300 people, but there were too many people who could sign up, so they directly changed to an opera house that could accommodate 3000 people.

All rich people participating in the auction must pass the capital verification of the auction house, and those who do not have a wealth of more than one billion euros cannot get an invitation card at all.

In just a few days, a total of 860 invitation cards were issued, which made the auction house's board of directors extremely excited.

Everyone understands that this is for longevity medicine.

This time the auction house did not get much commission, only one-thousandth of the commission. However, the auction house's board of directors knew that even one-thousandth would not be a small number.

The starting price is already 1000 million euros, how much will the price go up to, at least one billion.

Calculated in billions, the auction house will receive a commission of 100 million euros.

Coupled with the proceeds from other auction items, this auction is definitely a bumper harvest.

Time passed day by day, and five days later, the auction began.

In order to ensure the safety of this auction, the auction house specially hired Carter Security Company, Eagle Country's largest security company, to be responsible for today's security work.

The inspection is very strict. There are more than four security personnel at each main exit, and there are also two cameras. The network center has also arranged two teams of people to guard from different angles.

Cameras have been installed in every corner of the entire opera house, and some cameras even have night vision functions.

The roof of the opera house and the surrounding commanding heights are all staffed, and there are quite a few of them, and the angles are quite tricky, so you can't attack multiple people at once.

As long as one person has a problem, more than three security personnel will immediately discover it.

At the same time, all rich people participating in the auction today must go through five security check procedures before entering the auction venue.

Carter Security Company is very powerful and well-connected, and they don't know how to play. The police also sent two teams to assist.

At the same time, several roads around the Opera House were closed from [-]:[-] pm, and vehicles without invitation cards were not allowed to enter.

When the time slowly entered six o'clock, luxury cars began to appear one after another, and rich people began to appear on the stage, and they were not allowed to enter with bodyguards.

You can only wait in the back, and the driver must also wait in the parking lot and must not leave the vehicle more than ten meters away.

It’s okay if you want to go to the toilet. There are hundreds of temporary public toilets in the parking lot, which are enough to meet the needs of drivers.

Clearly tell the drivers that if anyone leaves the safe area, the security company has the right to kill him. Such strict regulations have made many drivers honest.

However, the attitude of the security company made the rich feel more at ease. Compared with ordinary people, the rich are most concerned about their own safety.

One by one, they entered the opera house, received their number plates and walked towards their seats. The lobby on the first floor and the boxes on the second floor were all full before eight o'clock.

At eight o'clock, the auction started on time.

Oil paintings, cold weapons, manuscripts, porcelain, clocks, jewelry, etc., the previous dozens of items were sold very quickly, and the prices met the expectations of the auction house.

Time has passed for almost two hours. At this time, the auctioneer said, "Please invite the provider of the last lot, Mr. Xu Pingan, President of Tianqi Group."

After speaking, they began to applaud. Many people were taken aback. Is Xu Pingan really here? They began to applaud with the followers.

Soon, Xu Ping'an came out from the backstage in casual attire. Seeing that it was really Xu Ping'an, the applause became louder.

When he came to the center of the venue, Xu Pingan pressed the air a few times with both hands, and the scene became quiet. The rich people began to adjust their translators.

"Gentlemen and ladies, thank you for coming to this auction"

"I believe everyone is getting impatient with waiting, so I'll stop talking nonsense and get straight to the point." Xu Pingan said with a smile, and many people smiled knowingly.

Xu Ping'an was still the same as before, speaking directly and simply, not playing tricks.

"The birth of a new generation of vaccines is really a coincidence. Our staff cut a plant seed from the meteorite while cutting the meteorite"

"After the identification of our professionals, this seed has completely died and has no possibility of resurrection. Therefore, this seed was transferred to the Life Research Institute for research"

"Everyone knows that the new human vaccine is a weakened version of the vaccine, because without weakening, humans cannot withstand the energy absorption characteristics of the original vaccine"

"A very accidental experiment, there is an ingredient in this seed that can synthesize the tyrannical ingredients of the original vaccine, and the researchers started the experiment"

"Ordinarily, the seeds in this class are very large, which should be enough to make more than 20 vaccines, but they were consumed during the experiment, which is a pity."

"The remaining materials were used up to make just three vaccines"

"My parents were injected with a vaccine. After several months of observation, the effect exceeded my expectations and was very good."

"Today's auction is actually a quota. When you win the auction and pay the full price, you will be invited to Tianqi Island by the people of Tianqi Group."

"A very comprehensive physical examination will be carried out on you, and an in-depth recuperation will be carried out according to your current physical progress. Only after recuperation can you be vaccinated"

"The recovery time is expected to be about a month"

"After I've finished explaining, I will return the venue to the auctioneer. Everyone can bid freely, and the highest bidder wins." Xu Pingan said with a smile, then bowed to everyone, and left.

The crowd started to applaud and applaud. Now, everyone has a clear understanding of the product.

Backstage, Xu Ping'an went to the VIP room to drink and chat with the board members of the auction. As for the result of the auction, Xu Ping'an was not worried at all.

What's more, in the VIP room, you can also see the scene on the big screen.

Everyone came to the VIP room, held red wine and turned on the big screen to watch. It showed that the auction price had soared to 20 billion, and the members of the board of directors of the auction house were all blushing.

Time passed slowly, and the final winner came out. The 77-year-old Mexican telecom tycoon Slim won this victory with a bid of 57 billion euros.

Many people felt helpless when they saw this result. There was nothing they could do. This was a contest of real money, and there was nothing to complain about if they lost.

At the end of the auction, the rich people began to leave, and Xu Ping'an also left.

The next day, the whole world began to report on this incident. The sky-high price of 57 billion euros completely shocked the world and let ordinary people know what it means to be a rich man.

For ten years of life, spending so much money without blinking an eye.

The media also publicly reported that Slim's apparent assets are as high as more than 400 billion euros. Although he spent more than 50 billion euros, this will not hurt Slim.

Perhaps, in a decade or so, Slim will make that money back.

In just three days, Slim settled all the fees. At the same time, the auction house also transferred 80.00% of the money to the relevant agencies of the United Nations after deducting the commission.

This point has been confirmed by relevant UN agencies.

Two days later, Slim took a chartered flight to Apocalypse Island accompanied by personnel from the Apocalypse Group.

Xu Ping'an also made his own charter flight back to China, and injected the remaining 20.00% into the environmental fund under Xu Ping'an's name.

On this day, Mars
More than 400 kilometers away from the Mars base, the sky is very dark. Obviously, there will be heavy rain here soon.

Now the rain on Mars does not cause people to be excited. It rains a lot, and basically it rains in certain places every once in a while.

Time passed bit by bit, and with a "click", a bright light flashed in the sky.

Immediately afterwards, thunder began to appear, and Dou Xiaotao, a staff member of the synthetic water station not far away, and the personnel sent to collect information were all taken aback.

This is the first time lightning and thunder have been seen on Mars.

I took out my mobile phone and started shooting. After a short time, there was a "click" and lightning appeared again, followed by rumbling thunder once again.

After repeating this more than a dozen times, it began to rain in the sky, and at the same time, it was accompanied by wind.

In outer space, the space station has already made detailed records of the information sent from the ground, and did not take this rain seriously.

After an hour passed slowly, the staff of the meteorological team felt that something was wrong. According to the information received, the rainfall not only did not weaken but intensified.

Immediately called up the cloud images taken by the space station and began to study. After a short time, I discovered that the rain this time may not end in a short time.

The cloud layer is very thick, and lightning appears in the cloud layer from time to time, which has been discovered by the camera of the space station.

Immediately reported it to Liu Zhirong, the person in charge of the base. After reading the report, Liu Zhirong immediately started to make arrangements, and the two engineering teams set off directly with the equipment.

Because the meteorological team's report said that the rainfall may continue to increase, and it is expected that the rainfall will last for about five hours, and it will only be high and not low.

The terrain in the rain zone is very high, higher than the terrain where the Mars base is located, which is caused by earthquakes.

The high terrain continues to receive large-scale and high-intensity rainfall, which will cause floods. According to the topography research of the generation from the rainfall zone to the Mars base, if there is a flood, it will pose a great threat to a sub-base.

The best way is to increase the height in one area and change the direction of water flow.

One of the two engineering teams dispatched was responsible for raising the height, and the other was responsible for excavating and directing the water flow to other places.

Only 10 minutes after the two working teams set off, Liu Zhirong sent two teams and [-] transport vehicles to set off with equipment and some explosives.

Directly use explosives to blow up places that are not easy to dig, and now we must speed up.

　Excuse me for coming back late from overtime,

　　There is another chapter, continue to code, and post it later.
