In the asteroid belt, there is an asteroid called Lanyun, which is very similar to the iron filings star, with similar size and environment.

The difference is that the atmosphere of Lanyun is a bit more normal than the gas of iron filings, slightly radiant but non-toxic.

This star is an industry owned by Pudding Mining. It had mined minerals for a period of time before, and then sealed it up.

Since there are mines, there must be people staying behind to prevent illegal mining. The number of people staying behind should not be too small, otherwise safety will also be a problem.

However, if there is no mining, there will be no output. Economically, there will be no income, and those who stay behind will be quite boring.

Later, a starship stopped occasionally to replenish gas, and those who stayed behind thought about it, and opened a market here.

After reporting to Pudding Mining, the group also agreed to conduct an experiment—after all, it is an open source behavior.

There is considerable uncertainty in trading in the vast space, but backed by the pudding mining industry, security is basically guaranteed.

Both sides of the transaction in the market are living in the asteroid belt, and there are also professional brokers and the like.

As for the security, it is the staff of Pudding. They will not interfere with the transaction and only charge management fees.

Therefore, many of the items bought and sold here are prohibited, and they do not pay taxes to the empire, so it is considered an underground black market.

On this day, an armed merchant ship appeared in the atmosphere and issued a landing request.

The security guard zoomed in on the image, and couldn't help but complain, "I'm rough, what kind of crap is this."

The shape of the armed merchant ship is quite strange, with patches here and there on the hull, as well as damaged pipes and bridges.

It is so miserable that it makes people very doubtful whether this merchant ship will disintegrate in the next moment.

However, all the guests came, and the other party asked to land, but the guard simply asked, "Do you understand the rules?"

"Understood," the other party replied even more simply.

The guard gave a random stop, and the next moment, the armed merchant ship slowly landed.

Looking at the metal pieces on the merchant ship fluttering in the strong wind, the guard couldn't help but shook his head again, "This is really a hell."

Immediately afterwards, a mecha flew towards the merchant ship and stopped when it got close, "10,000 entry fee."

Once the market opens for ten days, the entrance fee of 10,000 can stay for ten days, and gas can be collected for free for half a day.

This is a benefit provided by the market to customers, but if it exceeds half a day, it will be charged.

There are huge air masses here, but they are not inexhaustible. It is necessary to set an upper limit.

The mechanical arm of the merchant ship slowly protruded, holding an alloy box on it, "Here."

Looking at the smooth and shiny mechanical arm, the mech pilot couldn't help but snorted, thinking that it really wasn't a good thing.

It is estimated that those rags are just camouflage. Anyone who really thinks that this merchant ship is weak and wants to take advantage of it will probably be hit and blooded.

After taking the box, the mech pilot felt the weight inside, and was taken aback again, "Is it silver dollars?"

Qu Jianlei hummed, "Didn't you say silver dollars are not good?"

The entrance fee is paid in the market, and hard currencies such as banknotes, energy blocks, and gold are all acceptable, and the equivalent value is fine, and silver dollars are naturally acceptable.

It was impossible for him to pay the energy block, and he didn't want to hand over the silver ticket—mainly because he didn't want to leave the cabin, so many silver dollars would have to be spent.

The mech pilot made no further sound, turned and left.

Xiaohu turned on the gas collection, and then asked Qu Jianlei, "Aren't you planning to go out for a walk?"

"Forget it," Qu Jianlei didn't like to communicate with people, and he didn't want to be discovered by others. He was the only one on the battleship.

Anyway, the regulations in the bazaar did not require the crew to leave the cabin in order to complete the transaction.

Otherwise, the mecha just now has the right to ask him to leave the cabin to pay the entry fee.

Then he tried to connect to the network of the market, and found that he could still connect.

The unified transaction in the market was four days later. He checked the Internet and found that there was actually an online trading platform here.

There are buyers and sellers, but there is no clear price tag, just a simple indication of demand.

"There are still transactions on the platform?" The big-headed butterfly turned excitedly, "I'll check their transaction prices."

Qu Jianlei is not very sensitive to prices, and he has never been good at bargaining.

But Xiaohu is used to digging and searching. This is also the nature of artificial intelligence, and he is stuck at the lower limit to handle things well.

Of course, Qu Jianlei would not object to it doing so, it doesn't always feel good to be taken advantage of.

The price of historical transactions cannot be found on the trading platform, but artificial intelligence can't help it.

But then, Xiaohu discovered another point.

"If it is an online transaction, the delivery and collection of money will be done by the market, and a management fee of ten points will be charged."

However, if the demand is only indicated on the platform, the market will not charge any fees.

Big-headed Butterfly was a little puzzled by this, "Then everyone will have to trade offline, who is willing to pay more?"

"I'm afraid it's not what you think," Qu Jianlei saw a clue.

"For online transactions, the market is responsible for the delivery, and by the way, it will cover the transaction behavior."

He doesn't dislike this kind of extra charge, and he should pay a reasonable fee if he enjoys the convenience.

If conditions permit, he is also willing to pay 10% more, at least it will save a lot of possible trouble.

But Xiaohu, a money buff, couldn't accept it. "Is Pudding Mining sure to be credible? They don't do it because they don't have much profit."

This is indeed the truth, Qu Jianlei nodded, "Then let's release the demand as well."

He has a lot of needs, including shipboard weapon systems, ammunition, raw materials, computing units, and energy blocks.

Qu Jianlei did not ask for online or offline transactions qualitatively, but said that what I want should be discussed in detail.

The detailed discussion is likely to be an offline transaction, but he really didn't imply it by doing so.

The main things he needs, there is no way to make a clear list, he doesn't want others to guess what he plans to do.

Although it is not the time for big fairs, as long as both buyers and sellers are in the fair, sporadic transactions can be made.

The management of the bazaar discovered his transaction request immediately.

The management side should review the transaction content to prevent the occurrence of demand similar to "asking to assassinate a certain person".

Although this is not a formal market, certain excessive requirements cannot be publicly displayed on the trading platform.

Otherwise, if nothing else is said, what if the highest person who was offered a reward for assassination came to ask for an explanation?

Discuss in private, the market will not intervene, but it must not be made public.

In addition, the management side will also participate in the transaction. If some people need it, pudding can be provided directly. Why not make money?

But when they saw the number "8384", someone snorted coldly, "How can that junky thing afford so many things?"

"It's not what you think," a mech pilot retorted, "That's an insidious guy..."

As soon as he said that the robotic arm was "smooth and shiny", his colleagues all reacted.

"This kind of guy is a troublemaker. Except for asking about raw materials, we don't participate in other transactions."

When these people were talking, they were so undead, there was a sound collector next to them.

It is said that this is a device in the bazaar for internal use only, but who would have thought that an artificial intelligence would sneak in?

Hearing this comment, Qu Jianlei could only smile wryly, "Xiaohu sees what you've done."

For this tattered look, he has talked to Xiaohu several times: Should we be so exaggerated?

But the big-headed butterfly replied plausibly, "This can better cover up the true colors and mislead the other party's cognition in the first place."

The reasoning is the same, but it just makes people feel uncomfortable-I can’t get rid of the entanglement with the tattered co-author?

After a while, an armored vehicle really came, and it didn't hide its origin at all, with the pudding logo on it.

"8384, what raw materials did you buy?"

The mechanical arm protruded again, and there was a screen on it, which listed seventy or eighty kinds of materials, including alloys and non-metallic materials.

Pudding Mining did not take all of this list, but only selected some metals and alloys.

Mining companies trade only those they have in stock, and they don't bother to touch those without stock.

The amount of this transaction is not large, only about 200,000 yuan, Qu Jianlei still chooses to trade with silver dollars.

The two sides didn't even meet each other, and the transaction was completed. As for the energy block, neither side mentioned it.

There is definitely no shortage of energy blocks in the market, but there is also a cost to transport them.

The point is that they feel that the other party is a little abnormal, so they even gave up some tradable items.

Pudding is certainly not afraid of trouble, however, no one likes trouble.

The armored vehicle that went back even said, "The more than two hundred thousand are all silver dollars. Could it be that this guy robbed the Star Thief?"

Of course, the latter sentence is purely a joke. After all, few starships carry a lot of silver dollars with them.

However, this also shows from the side that this dilapidated merchant ship is definitely a potential hidden danger. Who is a decent person with so many silver dollars?

In fact, it wasn't just the market manager who was staring at this transaction.

After discovering that the transaction was successful, more people came one after another, wanting to ask what the other party needed.

In good conscience, the shape of Qu Jianlei's merchant ship is really too eye-catching.

What Xiaohu said was right, it did divert other people's attention, but it didn't feel good to be so unconventional.

That is to say, there is a successful transaction before someone will continue to step forward.

Qu Jianlei received a few waves of people, and felt that most of them were brokers, and some even dared to do everything, promising to supply all the goods.

He refused without hesitation, saying that the seller can only choose one type of what he purchased, and then discuss the type in detail.

Anyway, it was still early for Daji. It is said that there will be many more people in Daji.

However, there are really strong intentions, and some people say that various ammunition can be provided.

Ammunition is also a hard currency in space, but the price will fluctuate to a certain extent.

The seller said that he brought a lot of ammunition. Taking advantage of the selling points before the big market, it is considered auspicious, and it will only increase by 30%.

Qu Jianlei felt that the price increase of 30% was not too high, since he was in outer space, there was nothing wrong with stocking up on more ammunition.

But Xiaohu, a money fan, refused to agree, and it expressed fiercely.

"Ammunition, do you still have to spend so much money to buy it? Wouldn't it be enough to destroy a few more armed merchant ships?"
