Chapter 401, Three-Pearl Galaxy
Since the former Gardner Galaxy became the new territory of the Empire several years ago, the Empire quickly renamed it the Sanzhu Galaxy. The name comes from the fact that there are three life planets in the Sanzhu Galaxy, and each life planet is naturally evolved, not artificially transformed.
Because of the special geographical location of the Sanzhu Galaxy, there are more than ten time and space ocean currents connecting the surrounding galaxies. In the past, under the rule of the Oaks civilization, it was also the transportation hub and economic center of a large number of surrounding galaxies. Now that it has fallen into the hands of the Empire, the status of the Sanzhu Galaxy has not changed at all.
Now that the Empire has just taken over more than 100 surrounding galaxies, large-scale immigrants have begun to thrive in this galaxy. The Sanzhu Galaxy can also be regarded as the core of the surrounding galaxies. Whether it is traveling to and from the Empire's base camp, or economic and trade exchanges, etc., it must pass through the Sanzhu Galaxy. The Empire has also stationed heavy troops in the Sanzhu Galaxy to protect the security of the Empire's territory.
In addition to the prosperity of this place due to its superior geographical location, the Empire has also tilted many policies towards this place in order to further develop and consolidate the 100 star systems it has obtained from the Ox Civilization. One of the most important policies is to make the Sanzhu Star System a port for the Empire to open to the outside world.
Any civilization, as long as it respects the laws of the Empire and is willing to do things according to the requirements of the Empire, can come to the Sanzhu Star System to do business and trade, etc., and become the only star system currently open to the outside world in the Empire.
Although the Sanzhu Star System has only been in the hands of the Empire for a few years, it has become quite prosperous now with its special geographical advantages and the support of national policies.
The space port groups at the entrances and exits of the space-time ocean currents have been rebuilt. The huge space port group is brightly lit, and spaceships are parked neatly in the port. The small spaceships that keep coming and going are like hardworking bees constantly traveling between various large spaceships and space ports; the hatches on the spaceships are wide open, and mechanical arms are constantly loading and unloading materials.
These huge number of spaceships, as long as you look at their appearance, logo, power, etc., you will know that they are international brands. As the reputation of the empire continues to spread on the sub-spiral arm, more and more sub-spiral arm civilizations come to the Sanzhu Galaxy to do business and trade. Most of the well-known civilization caravans on the sub-spiral arm can be found here.
In the space ports, the aliens are different, some are tall and mighty, some are short and sturdy, and some are strange. All kinds of aliens gather together at this time, constantly talking to each other, discussing the trading of goods in their hands, or querying the information of various civilization caravans and goods in the Sanzhu Galaxy through the computers in the space port, looking for the partners they want. Of course, most of them carry a large amount of materials here to sell to the Yanhuang Empire officials, and then buy the weapons they urgently need from the Yanhuang Empire officials.
The cosmic merchant Li led his team into a space port. Li was from the relatively weak Level 2 cosmic civilization, the Abweir Civilization. The Abweir Civilization was relatively close to the Yanhuang Empire, the Oaks Civilization, the Kalan Empire, and so on. When the news reached the Abweir Civilization, the entire Abweir Civilization was also very excited. The Yanhuang Empire was willing to sell powerful arms and weapons to weak civilizations.
So soon, the Abweir Civilization sent the cosmic merchant Li to the Sanzhu Galaxy with a large amount of supplies, wanting to sell these supplies here in exchange for the warships, energy cannons, and other powerful arms and weapons that the Abweir Civilization urgently needed.
"It's really lively."
Li looked at the huge and lively hall. The whole hall was very large, providing various types of chairs, tables, etc. for rest and conversation. All kinds of aliens of all shapes and sizes kept talking to each other, or like Li, they came here for the first time and didn't know how to find their goals.
"Hey? Which civilization are you from? Roses? Or Brest?"
Not long after the people led by Li entered, an alien came up to chat. The language he spoke was the Ox civilization language that is more common on the sub-spiral arm.
"We are from the Abbeville civilization."
Li responded gently. The Abbeville civilization people looked a bit like the Roses and Brest people. They were all not tall, had thick hair, and looked like dwarves or goblins.
"Abbeville civilization? I haven't heard of it. Forget it, it doesn't matter. What goods did you bring? If there is something I am interested in, I can give you a satisfactory price."
The other party thought about it in his mind, then shook his head and asked. It is obvious that the Abbeville civilization is just like many level 2 cosmic civilizations. It is not well-known and is only known by some surrounding civilizations.
"We just got here and don't know anything yet, so we want to wait and see." Li shook his head gently. As a space merchant, he certainly knew that he could only get the most value out of his goods if he sold them to the right people. Now that he had just arrived, there was no need to rush to sell his things.
"Okay, if you have business in the future, please contact me. My name is Harvey, from the Hasar civilization. My contact number is 17834023849023. Go to my homepage, where I have the goods in my hands. If you are interested, you can contact me."
Harvey reported a series of numbers. Everyone who enters the Three Pearls Galaxy will be forced to buy a communication device from the Empire for communication, so these aliens can contact each other as long as they know each other's communication codes.
"Okay, Mr. Harvey."
Li asked his men to remember the other party's contact information silently, and then took his people to find a place to rest first and learn more about the situation here.
Soon, Li's men dispersed in all directions and began to learn more information. As an open port, a lot of information here in the Three Pearls Galaxy is open to everyone, and information has always been the most important thing in the mall.
"In every spaceport, there is a window for selling goods from the Yanhuang Empire, and there is also a window for purchasing materials. If you want to buy things from the Yanhuang Empire, you must use the currency of the Yanhuang Empire. The currency of the Yanhuang Empire is now universal among everyone, because everyone wants to buy the weapons of the Yanhuang Empire."
"Well, it seems that we still need to re-price our goods first and convert them into the currency of the Yanhuang Empire, so that it will be more convenient to trade."
Li looked at the information one by one, and kept thinking in his mind how to maximize the value of the goods in his hands.
"The price of selling one ton of steel to the Yanhuang Empire is 1 yuan. The Yanhuang Empire is really unscrupulous. The price is too low. However, steel is the most common and the largest-produced thing in the universe. Few civilizations are willing to purchase it. In this way, the price seems to be more reasonable."
"If you are close to the Yanhuang Empire, you can smelt steel at a loss and sell it to the Yanhuang Empire to obtain powerful weapons. If you calculate it this way, it is very cost-effective."
When seeing the list and price of materials purchased by the Yanhuang Empire, Li couldn't help but frown and think carefully about the content. The Yanhuang Empire purchases almost everything, from the most common and common steel to various rare resources, special products produced, etc. Except for high-end technology and interstellar slaves, the Yanhuang Empire wants almost everything.
But there is no doubt that the prices of these things are very low. The price of one ton of steel is only 1 yuan, which is definitely cheaper than cabbage. The prices of some other things are also similar. Only some of the scarce resources in the Yanhuang Empire are priced very high.
"I didn't expect the price of He3 to be so high. One ton of He3 is worth millions of yuan. Wow!" Li looked carefully at the price list of the materials purchased by the Empire. When he saw He3, his eyes lit up. Helium is the most ideal fuel for nuclear fusion. The Empire now has the power of controlled nuclear fusion. These space battleships, spaceships, etc. can only be started with this fuel. However, the distribution of He3 resources in the universe is not too much. Although the Empire's territory is getting wider and wider, and many planets rich in He3 have been discovered, the demand on the Empire side is very huge. With more and more battleships and spaceships, the demand for He3 is even greater. Therefore, the Empire also paid a high price to purchase it. The reason why the space merchant Li's eyes lit up is that the Abville civilization contains a very rich He3 resource. This resource has no effect on the current Abville civilization. Because if the controlled nuclear fusion technology is not mastered, this resource cannot be used. "Haha, I didn't expect the Yanhuang Empire to pay a high price for He3. In our Abville civilization, this kind of useless stuff is everywhere."
Li's heart was already blossoming with joy. It was true that I regarded it as poisonous weeds, but you regarded it as magical grass. The He3 resources that had no use at all in my civilization could be sold at such a high price in the Yanhuang Empire. This was the source of the huge profits of the universe trade.
For my own civilization, it was very common and useless, but in the universe, it was very likely that it would be something that a certain civilization was eager for. As long as it was transported there, it would be able to make a lot of money.
