The sky was clear and the breeze was gentle. Wang Chen, who was lying on the beach chair, took a sip of the ice drink in his hand and let out a sigh of relief.
In front of Wang Chen was a long infinity swimming pool, where two mermaids were playing and splashing water on his legs from time to time, bringing the slightest coolness.
In the distance are green grasslands, emerald lakes, dense forests, and vast mountains!
After completing the rescue mission on Planet Tempus and returning to the Holy Light Star, Wang Chen moved out of the villa lent to him by the Holy Light Research Institute and changed his residence to the large manor given to him by the Xu family.
In addition to large luxury villas, this manor also has extensive plantations, pastures and hunting forests, as well as dozens of square kilometers of private lakes.
Its value cannot be measured by stars at all, it belongs to the foundation of a noble family.
Xu Shaocheng really paid a huge price to save his son.
Wang Chen has lived in this manor for a week, and he has completely relaxed.
Wow!
With the sound of splashing water, a "mermaid" jumped out of the water and landed in Wang Chen's arms.
This mermaid was none other than Tang Mi. She put her arms around Wang Chen's neck and kissed her with a smile.
Then he pressed his face against Wang Chen's chest and lamented: "The holidays go by so fast!"
Wang Chen smiled and hugged her waist and said, "Just take a few more days off."
During this period, his two girlfriends, Tang Mi and Mingmei, have been accompanying him on the Holy Light Star, living a life where they only envy mandarin ducks but not immortals.
Tang Mi pouted: "I've already invited you. If you invite me again, your family will know about it, which will be troublesome."
If her family knew that she took leave and went to Holy Light Star for a vacation with her lover, the consequences would be really disastrous!
At this time, Mingmei also came up from the swimming pool and snuggled next to Wang Chen.
She was equally reluctant to part with it.
Wang Chen hugged his two girlfriends and comforted them: "It's okay. I'll go back to Taiwu Star to be with you in a while."
He has other plans and cannot go back with Tang Mi and Mingmei.
It was not easy for two girls to be admitted to the Empire's First Higher Military Academy, and their families had high expectations for them. Wang Chen could not selfishly ask them to give up their studies to accompany him.
Although Wang Chen is fully capable of taking care of the two of them for life!
"Um."
Mingmei nodded obediently and took the initiative to give her a sweet kiss.
Wang Chen was distracted and was about to feast, when the personal terminal on his wrist vibrated.
A contact request comes in.
He glanced at them and patted his girlfriends in disappointment: "Let's change clothes, we have guests coming."
Half an hour later, a luxury flying car landed at the berth of the manor.
Two men and one woman got out of the car.
Wang Chen received three visitors in the villa's living room.
One of the well-dressed middle-aged men saluted respectfully: "Your Excellency Wang Chen, I am Chu Xing'an, the business manager of Jiash Auction House. It is my honor to serve you."
These three visitors are all from Jash Auction House, and Jash Auction House ranks among the top five in the empire. It is a well-known presence in the industry and is extremely powerful.
Wang Chen still found someone from Jashi Auction House through Xu Shaocheng's relationship.
Otherwise, even if he is an imperial major or a third-class knight, it is not worthy for the Jash Auction House to send a manager, appraiser, and legal advisor to the door to serve him.
"Um."
Wang Chen nodded, then took out a box, placed it on the table, and opened the lid.
As the business manager of Jash Auction House, Chu Xing'an was definitely well-informed, but when he saw the contents of the box, his pupils suddenly shrank, revealing a hint of shock.
This inconspicuous wooden box was filled with pieces of lavender crystal stones.
Chu Xingan recognized at a glance that these were all Ming Jing!
The energy crystal formed after the death of the Nether Tribe has very incredible physical properties. After long-term research, the empire has developed various high-end applications for the Nether Crystal.
Currently, the Empire's most high-end combat mechas are inseparable from this special crystal!
Therefore, underworld crystals are also classified as strategic materials by the empire and are prohibited from being circulated on the market.
Of course, there is no problem with private transactions.
Depending on the size of a piece of Hades Crystal, the price ranges from hundreds of thousands to millions of stars.
Wang Chen's box of crystals contains more than a hundred pieces and is worth hundreds of millions of stars!
The value is secondary. The key is that this thing is really rare, and there are so many of them, so it is even rarer.
So Chu Xing'an couldn't help but be moved by it, with excitement in his eyes.
He asked cautiously: "Your Excellency Wang Chen, do you plan to take private photos of these crystals, or..."
Mingjing does not allow public auctions, but private auctions are another matter.
"No need for private photography."
Wang Chen waved his hand: "Evaluate the price and give it all to you."
"OK."
Chu Xing'an suddenly felt like he had been hit by a pie falling from the sky.
If so many underworld crystals are operated properly, Jiashi Auction House can get more than 30% of the profit, and as the business manager, he can draw a generous commission!
The crystals in the box were taken out one by one and placed on the table, where they were appraised and priced by the appraisers from the Jash Auction House.
After a lot of work, Chu Xingan calculated the total price and presented it to Wang Chen respectfully.
Wang Chen glanced at it, nodded and said, "Okay."
He had understood the current market situation of Mingjing, and the valuation given by the other party was basically the same, not high and not deceptive.
Such large auction houses still pay great attention to word-of-mouth and goodwill.
The legal advisor drew up a transaction contract on the spot, both parties signed the deal, and a sum of over 100 million Xingyuan was transferred to Wang Chen's account.
Chu Xingan was about to say goodbye and leave: "Your Excellency Wang Chen, then we will..."
"Don't worry."
Wang Chen smiled and said, "I still have some, don't you want them?"
"besides?"
Chu Xingan suddenly opened his eyes: "How many more are there?"
Wang Chen clapped his hands: "Power."
Tang Mi and Mingmei walked over carrying a large box and placed it in front of Chu Xingan.
When the lid of the box was opened, all the crystals inside were at least ten times the number before!
so much!
Chu Xingan almost fainted, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Wang Chen completely changed.
He had already greatly overestimated Wang Chen's strength, but now he realized that he had seriously underestimated it.
The business manager of Jash Auction House couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead - he was under too much pressure.
Wang Chen smiled and said nothing.
He collected a large amount of Hades Crystals underground on Planet Tempus, and what he now sells to Jash Auction House is only one-tenth of the amount, which is nothing at all.
This thing is of no use to Wang Chen, so it is best to cash it out directly.
