Chapter 404 Announcement
Star warlocks have a noble status. As sellers of scarce items, they have the right to determine the minimum price. If the price is lower than the expected figure, the transaction will not be able to proceed.

In the final formation of the price, the pairing starts with the highest price of the other party, and the final price is the average of all prices, so that the silver taels obtained by all star warlocks are equal.

On the other hand, merchants pay differently, some spend more and some spend less.A one-time hidden bid is quite a psychological test for the participants. Without knowing how many contribution points will enter the transaction, the higher the price, the higher the probability of getting the contribution points. It is possible that they will not be able to get the expected amount of contribution points. As for the gentlemen who bid the lowest, naturally there will be no contribution points to take.

Contribution points, as a scarce resource, are worthy of being quoted at a higher and higher number.Cheng Jinzhou knew this very well, the star warlocks knew this very well, and so did the nobles and merchants.

The yellow mounting paper, which is about a foot long, makes everyone look at it involuntarily, even Liu Qingshuang and other female relatives are no exception.

Cheng Jinzhou couldn't help being curious, and unfolded the note with a swipe.

Lu Xu immediately brought his big head closer, followed by He Run who pretended to be pacing.

The expressions on the three faces were different.

Xiao Cheng had expected it a long time ago, and gently put down the note. He Run simply gasped and fell silent.As for Lu Xu, he just bowed his head and counted silently.

Pity him, a second-level star warlock, who can withstand a tyrannical body with 5000 star points, but he has to think hard about the most common calculations.

"Announce it." Cheng Jinzhou casually rummaged through the box twice, and after confirming that the numbers were all right, he ordered lightly.

Everyone couldn't wait a long time ago, and all of them had bulging eyeballs.

Xiang Xin took a deep breath, took the note, exhaled and raised his voice: "The number of star points in this transaction is 1820 points, and the average price per point is 720 three taels of silver."

Those round eyeballs almost fell to the ground.

1820 star points, almost three 100-star Warlock short-selling contribution points are enough.God is so pitiful, no two-star warlock would sell their star points below [-]—that would be an automatic downgrade, and if they needed to use them, they would not be able to buy enough contribution points, which would be a real tragedy.

Therefore, this means that at least a dozen or so Astromancers choose to sell star points.

If the merchants haven’t fully realized the horror of 1820 star points, the 8723 taels of silver are enough to scare their tongues out—if they are used to buy land, the area of ​​hundreds of acres is enough for a small country Build a palace; if it is used to buy servants, nearly a thousand people are enough for the largest family; if it is used for the elderly, the younger generations will have nothing to worry about.

This is the price of one contribution point only.The total amount is 1587 million taels of silver, which is equivalent to the tax revenue of a province and almost certainly exceeds the assets of most aristocratic families.

8723 is still an average number, which means that when someone pays a higher number—although someone’s bid is lower—many people secretly sigh, when they are still surprised, someone is willing to pay the number double the price.

Of course, there were also people who remained calm and murmured to themselves.

Among the star warlocks, there are also people who have swept their eyes here. Compared with the association's price which is more than 14 times, it is really surprising.

Cheng Jinzhou raised his eyebrows, got up and clapped his hands and said: "Everyone, everyone, let us enter a happy banquet. Those who have successfully traded can take out your certification stone, and someone will complete the final steps for you. In addition, everyone is welcome to participate The next trade fair is scheduled for two weeks later."

A group of dancers came out with joyful steps, separating the crowd.Astromancer apprentices shuttled among them holding certification stones, either asking about their intentions for the next trade fair, or completing the transaction itself.

Everyone's expressions were dignified, especially the elites at the top of society, who were sensitive to the significance of this trade fair.

Not only the formalization of the transaction of contribution points leaving the association, the soaring price of contribution points, and the possible popularization will make the trading system of the whole world different.

They still can't understand the meaning of the credit world that Cheng Jinzhou needs, but the simple "money is worth money or not", that is, the so-called inflation principle, is quite clear.

Jiang Huang, Kant and the others got up and left the table one after another. The astrologists returned to the inner hall to discuss their favorite topics, while the merchants and nobles stayed where they were, looking at each other with inexplicably surprised expressions.

Soon, the son of the Dou family was the first to throw the jade pendant in his hand, and after the crisp sound of falling to the ground, he left everyone with a back view full of speculation.

"Their bid is too low." The two sea merchants muttered in low voices.

There are many channels for noble families to obtain contribution points, and their habitual thinking made them never expect that their contribution points would skyrocket by 15 times in this trade fair.

What they think the most is "really crazy".

Before the price was announced, many nobles showed dignified or hideous expressions. Some guys with a wide range of people originally wanted to control the price, and even negotiated with those giant merchants.But looking at it now, it seems that no one has really fulfilled the promise.

The Dou family was one of the three major families in the Xia Dynasty, but apart from him, no one had the courage to leave.

Liu Qingshuang's beautiful eyes flickered, and she looked at Cheng Jinzhou who was approaching with a magical expression. Her father was a fortune-teller, but she knew quite well the meaning of 1500 million taels of silver.

Her appearance is extremely lethal to Cheng Jinzhou.Classmate Xiao Cheng was shocked by that look, and held Liu Qingshuang's little hand regardless of the public.

The catkins are soft and smooth, as if water can be squeezed out.Cheng Jinzhou really pinched it hard.

"It hurts." Qingshuang Meimei blushed like a cloth, and let out a sigh.

Cheng Jinzhou came to his senses, chuckled twice, then raised his head and looked around majesticly.

Everyone retreats.

Liu Qingshuang couldn't help laughing, thumped him twice, and said, "What are you doing, there are my friends inside."

"Your friend can't stay with us all the time." Cheng Jinzhou said narrowly.

In Daxia, this level of teasing is definitely beyond the scope of Deng Tuzi, Qingshuang Meimei thought for a while, then her eyes widened, and she couldn't find any words to refute for a while.

Cheng Jinzhou laughed. The joy of solving problems is the source of self-expansion for young people.

At the banquet hall, singing and dancing was peaceful, and the half-dark transactions burned everyone's hearts.

The star warlock apprentices who are in charge of the transaction process, try to complete the handover with one party alone with a small number of people, but in the eyes of interested people, whoever purchased the contribution degree can still be guessed at close to ten.

Liu Qingshuang has been by Cheng Jinzhou's side all the time. At this time, seeing many red-eyed nobles, she couldn't help but whisper: "Is there any nobles who are looking for trouble?"

"As long as the astrologists don't make trouble." Cheng Jinzhou said so, but he waved his hand and called Shi Mo, "You take my name card and invite Jing Zhaoyin from Xia Jing to come over."

Jing Zhaoyin is the mayor of Xia Jing, and his official title in Daxia is Internal History, and his power is not small, not inferior to Dali Temple Minister and others.If you do well in this position, you often have a great chance to enter the cabinet. It has always been a position that officials fear and love.

However, with Cheng Jinzhou's current status, not to mention the internal history, even the royal family of the Great Xia, there is no need to care too much.

After a while, Jing Zhaoyin ran over joltingly—he really used the way of running, and it was said that it was easy to appear serious this way.

Cheng Jinzhou didn't even need to greet him politely, he simply asked, "Do you know the situation here?"

After getting the affirmative answer, he immediately said: "You must protect the nobles and businessmen attending the meeting today. I will ask you for any little thing."

The internal history is a ministerial official, an upright third-rank official, and he still has to accept it.

Cheng Jinzhou shrugged, only then smiled and cupped his hands.

Jing Zhaoyin immediately wisely handed over and left.

The conversation between the two didn't take more than 2 minutes, but the surrounding nobles saw it clearly and started whispering again.

Cheng Jinzhou twitched his lips, turned to Liu Qingshuang and said, "Actually, I wish someone had something wrong."

"and then?"

"Teach him a lesson so that everyone can remember that passive protection is not enough."

Liu Qingshuang's delicate face looked at him intently, and suddenly said: "Your tone has the taste of conquest."

"Conquest?" Cheng Jinzhou wondered.

Liu Qingshuang nodded affirmatively and said, "After you came back from Beihan, you became... more decisive."

She could barely describe it in one word.

Cheng Jinzhou smiled wryly. The battlefield is a battlefield after all. Although he may have experienced the easiest war, but thinking about the Americans who fought in easier wars, didn’t they still suffer from countless mental illnesses? His tone changed a little. , and even some changes in the way of doing things are possible.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Liu Qingshuang couldn't do intimate movements, so she only used her thumb to gently caress the big hands holding her.

At that moment, Cheng Jinzhou really felt a warm current surging in his chest.

His hand clenched a little more.

The sky gradually darkened.

The setting sun is like expired raw meat, with a dark red color.

The astrologers bid farewell and left one by one, and many people were still talking about irrational numbers.Xiang Xin gave full play to her coordination ability and tried her best to send everyone out in person.

When the noise of the banquet hall gradually disappeared, Cheng Jinzhou was about to say goodbye to Jiang Huang and the others, when Xiang Xin flew in hastily and knocked a chair away.

Lu Xu immediately sneered mercilessly: "Stop flying in such a narrow place."

Naturally, it was a joke that Xiang Xin's star rating was too low - if the level determines strength and speed, then the star warlock's star rating determines agility and intelligence.In the terms of a racing car, the star warlock's level is equivalent to horsepower, and the star level is equivalent to torque.

Lu Xu's own calculation ability is very poor, and it is easy to see Xiang Xin bumping into a chair, laughing so loudly that it seems to go through the ceiling.

Xiang Xin is the apprentice of Warlock Liu Kuangxing, a generation below Lu Xu, but he didn't reply, but handed the stack of papers in his hand to Cheng Jinzhou, and said, "Mr. Cheng, what do you think of my article? "

"Has Mr. Liu Kuang read it?" Cheng Jinzhou asked while taking it over.

"Not yet." Xiang Xin said in a low voice, "This article is about the original geometry."

"Euclid?"

"You still remember, the fifth parallel axiom, I said that day that I wanted to use the first four to prove it..."

Cheng Jinzhou widened his eyes and asked, "And then..."

Xiang Xin's voice became softer, but he insisted: "I think the fifth parallel axiom does not necessarily hold true, especially through learning new knowledge recently..."

Cheng Jinzhou yelled in his heart, "No way", and picked up the stack of paper almost with hands and feet—could it be possible that Non-Euclidean Geometry was created by Xiang Xin?
