Pretend to be a fish and eat the boss [Interstellar]
Chapter 10 Black Market Auction 01
Shang Xilou looked at Xin Chen in astonishment, and it took him a long time to say, "How did you see that?"
"I didn't see it, I felt it." Xin Chen said worriedly, "Why are you unhappy?"
Shang Xilou looked at Xin Chen, he was actually not unhappy, he was just touched by the words "raised to death", and felt a little bit stuck for a while.No one will be happy if the pet is raised to death for the first time.There is not only the sadness of losing a beloved pet, but also the frustration of not accomplishing something.
Shang Xilou has always been a person who is unwilling to accept failure, so he strives to succeed in everything he does, even if he fails, he must definitely gain something.
"I'm just a little worried about you." Shang Xilou said, reaching out to rub Xin Chen's cheek.Although it doesn't feel good to the touch, it is warm and full of life.
"Don't worry about me. I'm fine." Xin Chen got close to him instantly, sat on Shang Xilou's lap, and rubbed his cheek against Shang Xilou.As a pet, if it makes the owner worry, it will be too dereliction of duty. If the performance is evaluated, points will definitely be deducted.
Shang Xilou felt relieved after being rubbed, put his arms around Xin Chen's waist, and couldn't help but kissed Xin Chen's cheek.It wasn't until after the kiss that he realized that he was so close to a humanoid creature, like a couple.Thinking of this, Shang Xilou froze as if struck by lightning, his face darkened.
"Xilou, what's the matter with you?" Xin Chen immediately became worried, he didn't realize that the two were too close, he just wanted to comfort Shang Xilou.
Shang Xilou said it was all right, took Xin Chen off his lap, took his pajamas and went to take a shower.
The sound of splashing water kept ringing in his ears, and Shang Xilou's heart was in turmoil.He is not a libertine like Qin Yufei. He has lived for 18 years. Although he has countless suitors, he has never been in love.But this uneasy and sweet feeling now is not what love is.
However, Xin Chen is not a suitable love object.First of all, Xin Chen is not pretty at all right now. Although you can't just judge people by their faces, Shang Xilou's requirements for the other half obviously include beauty.Secondly, Xin Chen is a mermaid, no matter how human he looks, he is still not human.Again, Xin Chen obviously doesn't understand what love is, and his personality is as simple as a pet, relying on himself wholeheartedly, and acting like a baby happily when he eats and drinks every day.
Of course, these three points are not the most important. The most important thing is that it is unknown whether Xin Chen can survive.Although he has already decided to participate in the black market auction, it is unknown whether there will be mermaid candy in the auction, and whether he can successfully bid for the mermaid candy.
The one in Shangxi Building took a slow shower, and when he left, Xin Chen was already lying on the bed and fell asleep.
Looking at Xin Chen who was drooling on the bed, Shang Xilou sighed for a long time, and lay down on the bed far away from Xin Chen, thinking in his heart, we can wait until we can buy mermaid candy.
The final exam was over soon, and Shang Xilou performed well, and finally kept his first place in the grade.Teacher Lin was very satisfied, and asked about Shangxilou's cousin, and asked Shangxilou if he wanted to do a day study in the next semester, and he could help speed up the procedure.Shang Xilou quickly thanked Mr. Lin, and applied when he returned home. If he can go to study in the next semester, Xin Chen can be more free.
The summer vacation started, and the classmates returned home one after another, but Shang Xilou took Xin Chen to play around.On the second day after returning, he will catch up with the cargo ship scheduled by Shang Xilou and set sail.
Both of them wore overalls on the ship, and occasionally helped with some simple tasks, which could be considered as a way to pass the boring time of star voyage.
On the fifth day of Starflight, the cargo ship reached the jump point outside the atmosphere of swept-3, and Shang Xilou and Xin Chen wore space suits together and entered the rescue cabin.
It is said to be a rescue capsule, but it is actually a small spacecraft that can land and take off, and can also sail for a short time.However, it is far worse than a serious spaceship. Shang Xilou actually mentioned that he wanted to buy a short-range spaceship for himself, but cargo ships cannot carry short-range spaceships casually, so they can only use the rescue capsule.
Xin Chen was very used to the rescue capsule. When he was transported as a birthday present, he was already used to bumping in the dark. He took Shang Xilou's hand and comforted Shang Xilou in a low voice, "It's not really scary, at least here No broken glass."
Shang Xilou held Xin Chen's hand back, showing a helpless and distressed smile.If he hadn't known that Xin Chen had been closed since he was a child and was really innocent, he would definitely have felt that Xin Chen was buying pity on purpose.
Accompanied by violent vibrations, the rescue capsule landed on the swept-3 planet.
Shang Xilou first observed the external environment, and after confirming that there was no danger, he added a slightly more formal suit and cloak to the tight black spacesuit.
The swept-3 planet is not suitable for human survival. They must wear spacesuits and maintain oxygen supply to move on the surface.But that would inevitably be unsightly. Although the spacesuit is comfortable to wear and the design is very fashionable, which perfectly outlines Shangxilou's well-proportioned muscles, it is tight-fitting after all.
After the two left the rescue cabin, Shang Xilou used the communicator to swipe the tickets for the auction, and soon, a message was received on the communicator.
Customer Service 003: Dear, do you need pick-up service?The average price is 5W star coins.
Looking at the price, Shang Xilou couldn't help but feel a little bit pained. When he came to this kind of place, the unit of measuring the star currency has undergone a qualitative change. The starting price of Zeus star public transportation is only 5 star currency.
Mr. Lou: pick up + send off = 5W?
Customer Service 003: Yes.
Mr. Lou: Yes.
Customer Service 003: Please wait~
Shang Xilou hailed the car and turned to Xinchen.Xin Chen was looking around vigilantly, his hand was still tightly gripping Shang Xilou's, even tighter than before, completely exposing his mind.
"What? Are you afraid?" Shang Xilou asked softly.
Xin Chen turned to Shang Xilou, tilted his head, and Shang Xilou could see the distressed expression behind the transparent film mask.
"I don't know why, but I always feel shuddering." Xin Chen whispered.
Shang Xilou looked around. The place where they landed was a place similar to the Gobi, except that the soil was not yellow, but iron-gray, very hard, and probably contained certain minerals.
As soon as Shang Xilou took a look around, he caught a hovering spaceship in the sky. He didn't expect the pick-up service to arrive so soon.
Shang Xilou didn't bother with the surrounding environment any longer, and took Xin Chen aboard the hovering spaceship.The hovering spaceship is self-driving, and after Shangxilou pays with rare ore, it automatically flies towards the destination.
This is not a formal trading place, and star coins are not accepted, and can only be traded with equivalent physical objects. Before coming here, Shang Xilou bought a box of rare ores worth 1200 million star coins as the fee for this time. 1200 million is nothing to the Shang family, but to the Shang family
The student in Xilou, who is still studying, already owns all the property. He even mortgaged a villa under his name.But it's only 1200 million. If you make an investment, you can earn it back in a year or two.
Shangxilou looked down through the window and found that the entire swept-3 star was covered with iron-gray Gobi. At a glance, neither water nor life could be seen. It was desolate and panicked.
He turned to Xin Chen, and found that Xin Chen had fallen asleep leaning against him. Xin Chen's spirit has been a little bit bad lately. He clearly said that he could live for six months, but after only two months, Xin Chen was very emaciated.
The hovering spaceship flew for more than two hours, and finally stopped next to a dilapidated starship. This is what Shang Xilou had guessed a long time ago. The auction cannot always be in the open air, and it must need a place, a place that can be moved at any time. Only starships.
Shang Xilou took Xin Chen to the entrance of the starship, and immediately stretched out a mechanical arm from the wall, scanned the two people's admission tickets, helped them carry their luggage, and took them to the designated room to rest.Fortunately, the accommodation is already included in the admission ticket, and Shang Xilou does not want to estimate the accommodation fee here.
As soon as the two entered the room, the 3D projection hidden in the wall reflected a polite waiter.
"Hello, Mr. Lou, I am waiter No. 027, and I am very happy to serve you." The waiter said, and bowed gracefully to Shang Xilou and Xin Chen, "Tomorrow is the auction. It is quite late. So please allow me to ask first, do you have any goals? Or let me introduce the hot selling items of this auction for you. The auction is short, and the details of some items may not be introduced in time. "
"I don't have any specific goals. Give me a catalog and I'll take a look." Shang Xilou said lightly. The most taboo thing about auctions is to let others know what you want to buy. It's not worthwhile if the price is raised.
"Okay, it has been transmitted to the optical brain." The waiter said with a smile.
"By the way, besides the pick-up service, do you have any other services here?" Shang Xilou asked.
"We provide all kinds of services, what exactly does Mr. Lou mean?"
"Bodyguard service." Shang Xilou said, he came to this strange planet alone with a box of ore, not to send money to the organizer, he wanted to ensure his own safety.If it wasn't true that he didn't know much about it, he would have hired bodyguards before he came.
"Of course, there is a bar in area A3, and there are many organizations that provide bodyguard services. Will Mr. Lou go now?" the waiter introduced.
"Let's go after dinner." Shang Xilou didn't seem to be too eager.
"Okay, when are you going, just ask me to turn on the guide light for you." The waiter said.
"Then turn on the guiding light to the restaurant first." It was already dinner time.
"After going out, just follow the yellow light. I wish you a happy dinner." After the waiter finished speaking, he disappeared consciously.
The restaurant on the starship is self-service, but the taste is very ordinary. Shangxilou put it down after two bites, but Xin Chen still ate deliciously, but he only tasted everything once. Put down the knife and fork.
"Not delicious?" Shang Xilou sometimes wondered if the mermaid had a sense of taste.
"Not really, the taste is different." Xin Chen tilted his head.
"Let's go, I've brought you some snacks, we'll have it later in the evening." Shang Xilou said, and took Xin Chen out of the restaurant.
Shang Xilou called the waiter at the entrance of the restaurant, and the waiter turned on the light for them, and the two followed the black light to the bar in A3 area.
The name of the bar is simple and rude "foronenight", Shang Xilou glanced at it, and didn't pay attention at all.Xin Chen didn't understand the meaning of these English words at all. He had only learned Interstellar language, and Interstellar language evolved from ancient Chinese. It was a pictographic script and had nothing to do with English.
The layout of the bar is exactly the same as that of an ordinary bar. The singer with the rainbow hair is performing hoarsely, the colorful lights are flickering on the dance floor, and flirting men and women are everywhere in front of the bar.
Shang Xilou raised his eyebrows, walked to the bar and sat down.
"Two glasses of juice." Shang Xilou ordered calmly.
The bartender didn't see anything, so he wasn't surprised at all, and the two glasses of juice arrived in front of Shang Xilou very quickly.Shang Xilou exchanged some ore for some trading coupons here before, and after paying the money, he asked casually, "I heard that there is bodyguard service here?"
"That's right, the seats next to the wall are all organizations that provide bodyguard services." The organization the bartender mentioned is actually a gang of star thieves. As long as they give money, they will accept any business.
Shang Xilou glanced over, and sure enough, he saw that a row of eight small private rooms against the wall was full of people, and the pattern was very uniform, with a big boss sitting in the middle, followed by three or four younger brothers.
At this time, the boss in one of the private rooms waved at Shang Xilou.
"I didn't see it, I felt it." Xin Chen said worriedly, "Why are you unhappy?"
Shang Xilou looked at Xin Chen, he was actually not unhappy, he was just touched by the words "raised to death", and felt a little bit stuck for a while.No one will be happy if the pet is raised to death for the first time.There is not only the sadness of losing a beloved pet, but also the frustration of not accomplishing something.
Shang Xilou has always been a person who is unwilling to accept failure, so he strives to succeed in everything he does, even if he fails, he must definitely gain something.
"I'm just a little worried about you." Shang Xilou said, reaching out to rub Xin Chen's cheek.Although it doesn't feel good to the touch, it is warm and full of life.

Shang Xilou felt relieved after being rubbed, put his arms around Xin Chen's waist, and couldn't help but kissed Xin Chen's cheek.It wasn't until after the kiss that he realized that he was so close to a humanoid creature, like a couple.Thinking of this, Shang Xilou froze as if struck by lightning, his face darkened.
"Xilou, what's the matter with you?" Xin Chen immediately became worried, he didn't realize that the two were too close, he just wanted to comfort Shang Xilou.
Shang Xilou said it was all right, took Xin Chen off his lap, took his pajamas and went to take a shower.
The sound of splashing water kept ringing in his ears, and Shang Xilou's heart was in turmoil.He is not a libertine like Qin Yufei. He has lived for 18 years. Although he has countless suitors, he has never been in love.But this uneasy and sweet feeling now is not what love is.

Although you can't just judge people by their faces, Shang Xilou's requirements for the other half obviously include beauty.Secondly, Xin Chen is a mermaid, no matter how human he looks, he is still not human.Again, Xin Chen obviously doesn't understand what love is, and his personality is as simple as a pet, relying on himself wholeheartedly, and acting like a baby happily when he eats and drinks every day.
