Deep Space Fleet

With an order, astronomers inside the civilization all mobilized and tried to search for this information. They repeated the previous observation data and checked it several times.

No!

At least, there is no corresponding astral structure within 50 light years.

If this astral structure exists, so many civilizations in the trading market should have discovered them and talked about it.

Not in 100 light years!

Not in 150 light years!

At this time, the Tus were already a little panicked. 150 light years is a large number for a third-level interstellar civilization. Long journeys, coupled with maintenance and breaks in the middle, may take more than two thousand years!

In 200 light years, it seems ... still not ...

"But it cannot be ruled out that there are some stars that are omitted and not recorded." The astronomer seemed to be comforting everyone.

In the 300 years of conception, the scope of this search is really too large. The records in the database, which recorded up to 300 light-years, still found nothing.

The meeting room was silent and no one spoke.

Thomas seemed to understand the trap set by humans, and sighed: "Contact them, where is the nearest astronomical structure?"

It is not difficult to connect the embassies of the two sides on the same planet. After about an hour, humans simply replied: "At least a thousand light years away."

Humans only gave one ambiguous data, the starry sky is so large, it is impossible to find the corresponding star according to this data. Only when both parties cooperate fully will they be informed of the precise location.

But this number directly lamented these large baby fishes. They did not think that new humans would lie here.

"That is to say, there is no star structure we need nearby! To observe the collision of neutron stars at close range, we must span a long, long distance! 1,000 light years, which is so long that we cannot accept it."

"We have to buy technology services in the trading market, and we can fly through curvature technology. Therefore, the new human civilization should find us to seek cooperation in this area ... A civilization rents a war star to fly past, is This cost is the same for both civilizations. "

Another young Tossman immediately said: "Then, the new human means ... we can share the cost of the new human civilization, and we are willing to accept such cooperation!"

"Divide? You think it's too easy!"

Thomas shook his head and said to the rather young diplomat: "You know, we signed the so-called confidentiality regulations, but the other party did not. Even if the other party leaked the secret, as long as it is not against us, we can't control it. of……"

"The other party can choose not to cooperate with us and choose another civilization."

"So this way, we are a civilization alone. If we want to go to that place, we need to pay the full amount of ferry tickets. We haven't even found where the so-called neutron star collision area is."

"So, in order to reduce losses, we have to pay extra amoeba points and ask humans to cooperate with us ..."

"Equivalent to buying the news with money."

This ... it's a good idea!

At one and a half minutes, there was no Toss talking in the conference room. This logic seemed impeccable.

At this point, Thomas said to another think tank member: "You go to the trading market and ask how much it costs to rent a battle star."

Renting a battle star is bound to be extremely expensive, and the Tuos have not yet owned their own planetary fortress.

Except for some third-level civilizations that deeply cultivate their own mother stars, nomadic civilizations are generally less laborious to build such bulky things.

After discovering that his people are sighing and sighing, Thomas also shook his head gently. What they are most eager for now is to have a pair of eyes, for which they have accumulated a large number of amoeba points.

But now, compared to curvature technology, a pair of eyes is really nothing.

With a pair of eyes, the amoeba points required are around 8,000 to 9,000. After paying such a large amount of points, the interstellar trading market will tailor a pair of eyes that can sense electromagnetic waves, and design a special auxiliary brain for them.

As long as you know what it ’s like to have light and make up this part of the “software” in your brain, the subsequent things will be simple, and the speed of self-improvement will become faster.

But now, if you are looking for curvature technology, you will definitely consume a lot of amoeba points, and this pursuit will undoubtedly be delayed for a long time.

After some discussion, at least 70% of the Tuos believed that they should prioritize the pursuit of curvature technology. Anyway, they are already used to this way, and it will not be a few years later.

With curvature technology, there are too many places to go. Maybe there is a civilization similar to that encountered in other trading markets? Pursuing a pair of eyes will be much easier then.

After listening to everyone's speech, Thomas continued: "However, when traveling to the neutron star collision area, you must rent a battle star to realize the full text relocation. This money point cannot be saved. Otherwise, there is no protection. Under the circumstances, once the neutron star collides, we will lose all of our own lives. "

"I just asked, the rental cost of Planet Bastion is calculated based on time, 40 points a year, and the speed is 10-12 times the speed of light. The minimum time for each rental is 50 years, so at least 2000 Amoeba points."

"If you lease for 100 years and go to a region beyond 1,000 light years, you will get 4000 Amoeba points."

This cost surprised everyone, no wonder the new human civilization is looking for a partner. If you go further, you cannot afford it.

Another staffer came up with a solution: "... According to the current analysis, the previous confidentiality agreement we signed was serious for the new human civilization, so the possibility of fraud is very low.

"Yes, they should not want the news to spread. There are more three-level civilizations going there, and there will always be chaos."

"So, can we therefore test each other's bottom line? The first cooperation priority of the new human civilization must be us, because we have learned the news. The second priority is other civilizations."

"Between this priority, there should also be price to measure."

Thomas thought for a while, and the tentacles on the two heads flickered: "You are right, but for us, it is the same. As long as the new human civilization does not cooperate with us, we have to rent another war Star, pay the full amount of the ferry ticket. If new humans cooperate with us, at least, we may pay less amoeba points. "

The young man said loudly: "Even if you pay less for a hundred or two hundred points, isn't it?"

All the big baby fishes in the conference room were all calm, silent, silent ...

Even if they knew the news in full, they still had to pay!

This made them sigh aloud the cunning of the new human civilization.

Yes, compared to paying the full amount of ferry tickets, even paying one or two hundred points less is an acceptable result for the Tuos civilization.

There is no point in breaking the fishnet. If the new humans do not choose to cooperate with the Tuos civilization, but choose another civilization, the Tuos will face a challenge from the alliance after spending a large price!

The fact that the Tuos are not good at making friends does not mean that the new human civilization is not good. Even if it is a union with a ghost, it is more reliable than a completely newcomer.

After analyzing all the advantages and disadvantages in this way, one of the senior officials sighed, "I agree with His Excellency's point of view. It seems that it is our best choice to cooperate with each other."

"Unless we don't want to get curvature technology ... but now, this piece of news about curvature technology is indeed reliable and has a certain chance of success."

The chief scientist nodded, and they could guarantee that scientific reasoning would not lie. These days, they have simulated many times with scientific computers. But without a large amount of data that is really reliable, these theories are always a large piece of content. It is impossible to make up the brain by relying on the brain alone.

This is a big thing about the survival and development of the entire civilization. No matter how cautious it is, they again demonstrated it for a week. After still failing to think of a better way, Thomas finally announced: "Negotiate with them Say, we are willing to bear more of the cost. "

"If certain Amoeba points can be offset by technology, we are willing to trade more core technologies."

"You don't need to confess anything. The news itself is valuable. We just can't rely on it. From a logical point of view, we should even thank each other."

"If you really get curvature technology, what is the price ... what else ?!"

...

The raging second round of negotiations resumed.

After reaching consensus and reaching an agreement, the two parties began a very complicated negotiation process. All sorts of rumblings are hard to come by. The Tuos are willing to pay more Amoeba points, but they are not willing to help humans pay in full.

According to their reasoning, if human beings change another partner, they are also at risk. This part of the risk should also be converted into amoeba points.

The final opinion was that humans paid 1,000 amoeba points, and the Thai civilization paid 3,000 points, and jointly leased a star-rated fortress to that star field.

In addition, the Tuos civilization also has to pay for magnetic field defense technology equivalent to 800 amoeba points. These are core technologies and have never been on the trading market side. It is equivalent to Tuos civilization paying 1,800 points for this news, which is already a pretty good result.

In addition, after the contract is concluded, the two parties are no longer allowed to find third-party cooperation partners.

After all, two civilizations are okay to say that the situation of three civilizations will undoubtedly become more complicated. At that time, there may be no way to cooperate.

Everyone is engaged in research and development, not to engage in politics and gangs with each other.

However, the problem came again. After being frozen for 5,000 amoeba points due to confidentiality, the Tothians couldn't afford the 3,000 points, so they had to be thawed first. This also brings more complicated questions, will it be leaked, how to guarantee after thawing, etc ...

This problem is also very realistic. Since it is necessary to leave the trading market in advance, Tuos civilization also wants to give its own amoeba points to consumers in advance. This time, the scientific experiment will be successful if it is not successful. Get ready. In particular, on the premise that there are a lot of resources in the market that can be purchased. It is a sin not to use it.

So, after listening to the request of the Tuos civilization, after friendly consultations, humanity agreed to the other party ’s request for thawing of points, but a series of more complex contracts were signed in the middle to ensure confidentiality.

...

This series of contracts has the thickness of an encyclopedia, more than six hundred pages, and the middleman who sees "coco filamentous warts" swells like eggs. "Ah, you two civilizations really talk too much. Now ... the service fee is still ... 5 points, thank you for your patronage. "

The two sides have invariably chosen to carry out deeper cooperation and strengthen mutual trust. Reaching that unfamiliar place, there is no so-called trading market, and no one knows what will happen at that time ... Maybe it is also possible to encounter another civilization.

It is better to choose confrontation with each other than to cooperate with each other. Win-win is the best model in the "prisoner's dilemma".

After the whole negotiation, everyone looked exhausted. Even Zhang Yuan's eyes were flushed, and there was obviously an overdraft.

The entire negotiation process actually took a full five months!

It's too long, it seems like a whole century!

However, the nerves of everyone are extremely excited. The fruits of this victory are a bit too large. The unique technology of the Tuos civilization equivalent to 800 amoeba points is very valuable. These magnetic field technologies are close to the level of a fourth-class civilization. It can be used in all aspects of industry beyond what humans currently have.

What's more, after people have completed this big goal, they still have more than 1,000 goal points on hand. With the hard currency of this thousand points, more things can be controlled.

A celebratory banquet was held in the embassy. The celebratory banquet was held in an alien place, and there is also a special flavor. Especially many of the dishes are derived from the Tuos civilization. Very strange things. !!

"What is this, sheep's eyeball? My God!" Zhang Yuan, as the initiator of the whole plan, is of course the biggest contributor. Many diplomats toasted and even helped him to pick vegetables.

"What is this again, looks like ... intestines? It smells so bad!"

Zhang Yuan is all excited!

"Rest assured, it's just protein after it's cooked!" Zhao Qingfeng seemed to see Zhang Yuan's expression that he was about to spit out, and he kept picking vegetables for him: "There is also this, what kind of bug egg will burst when you bite Pulp! With this wine ... it's delicious on earth, these Tuos love to enjoy it. "

Blasting!

Zhang Yuan had n’t had time to react, but it really burst. This weird taste like lime water made him sweat coldly and spit out the river in his stomach ... It's so inelegant.

These are laboratory-grown sterile foods that will be brought back to the mothership in the future. But he seriously doubted that anyone really likes these ghosts?

After the celebration party, Zhang Yuan closed his eyes with sleepy eyes, the mission was successfully completed, and his bones seemed to fall apart.

He believes that the most needed thing now is to sleep, yes, sleep!

Think about everything after waking up.

What he longed for now was to see the girl in the mothership, and in a flash, she had not seen each other for five months. Time flies so fast, I suddenly feel relaxed, but I miss it ...

After returning, it is six months. The other party should have passed the college entrance examination and entered the university.

Get a license?

At that time, bragging about my performance in this diplomatic mission is also good. He is still a young man. He can't be the same as the old man. There is something to brag about why can't he brag? Especially bragging in front of girls, what a happy thing!

Zhang Yuan thought so sweetly that he entered his dreamland.

...

Of course, it is not only Zhang Yuan who is dreaming. Almost everyone in the embassy is dreaming about their own dreams.

Isn't it true that you can witness the birth of curvature technology in your lifetime?

No, it should be impossible for a lifetime, no matter how long it takes thousands of years, unless we can pass the assessment of the extraordinary and return to this world, there is only a little possibility.

Humans at that time were really happy.

No matter how wide the Milky Way is, with curvature technology, where is it impossible to go?

Seeing a wider world, you can also learn more about civilization.

Even some soldiers on guard were feeling better. They didn't know why the celebration party was held, but when they saw that the seniors were in a good mood, they could naturally guess what must have happened, so they felt better, and even hummed a little song.

The power armor has a very wide field of view, and can easily see the spaceships flying around the planet.

This planet is the planet where all embassies of civilizations are located, and various trading activities are frequent. Especially in recent years, there seems to be more spaceships coming and going ...

Every civilization has its own efforts and ideas. According to statistics, in the recent period, the frequency of weapons transactions has increased significantly.

I don't know what will happen to this starry sky in the distant future, in the years after the departure of the Central Thai Civilization Trading Market.

At noon the next day, after saying goodbye to the staff here, Zhang Yuan and others re-embarked on the returning spacecraft.

"Bon Voyage!"

"Bon Voyage!"

Witnessing the spacecraft full of negotiators, the tail wing sprayed a bright ion beam and began an emergency return. Mr. Chen Mu shook his head, then returned to his office and closed his eyes in a chair.

The return trip was only a part of the diplomats. He, the foreign minister, had to sit in the embassy ...

ten years.

The two sides have agreed, and finally stay here for ten years. People in the muddy waters of all trading markets, including commercial alliances, military alliances, and various scientific research cooperations after the relocation of the interstellar market.

This has made him a lot of leisure.

In ten years, all the things that should be bought are purchased, and the points that are consumed are also consumed. The preparations are all prepared, and when the time is up, they will start on time.

The geopolitical influence of this trading market is nearly two hundred light years. Once you lose the huge influence of the interstellar trading market, this place will become more chaotic and impossible to be as calm as before.

As for why the trading market should be relocated, I have also received many ambiguous information over the years. On the one hand, for the Thai people, the civilization here really has little effect. On the other hand, it may be a higher order. Game of interest among civilizations.

For example, the fifth-level civilization, the Alev civilization, and the sixth-level amoeba civilization negotiated, so it was possible to give up this seemingly neutral site.

"But we are gone. What should the other human branch do?"

Chen Mu suddenly remembered Zhang Yuan's private conversation with him just this morning.

"No way ... there is nothing particularly good."

This is the conclusion reached by both of them.

Chen Mu has no special feelings for other human branches, but as a homogeneous human, from the moral level and moral level, he also knows that he should help a few human bases in the rear.

Even with this help, it may not be particularly useful.

It is impossible for the new human civilization to take them all beyond a thousand light years.

Each civilization has its own general trend, and the Milky Way has a greater trend of the times. The general trend of the Milky Way, with civilization as the unit, the third-level civilization does not turn out any particularly big waves. The most important thing is to be strong.

"... We haven't contacted the rear for a long time? Don't know how they live? Have we got rid of mediocrity?"

Just thinking about it, Chen Mu fell asleep stupidly ... dreamed that humans really mastered curvature technology, soaring in the vast galaxy, and even got out of this starry sky and went to another river system to witness A wider world.

...

A month passed hurriedly, and the transport ship finally reached the position of the mothership.

Because it is important ~ www.readwn.com ~ and it is not good to use electromagnetic waves to transmit messages in advance, the people in the fleet do not know how the negotiations are going.

"How about, have you talked about the cooperation with the Tuos civilization?" His Excellency the captain asked the first sentence when he saw this group of people.

It is not that he is not human, but really caring! They waited alive for six months, anxiously waiting every day and night. What a hell, who can understand their pain!

All cadres at the ministerial level are equally hungry.

"Certainly ... successfully!" Zhang Yuan said, laughing through the first door out of the biological disinfection area.
