Chapter 246 Fruit Auction
Chapter 246 Fruit Auction
She began to try to use her consciousness to sense the power core of the aircraft, concentrating her energy and imagining herself as one with the aircraft. She gently lifted her toes, and the aircraft seemed to understand her thoughts and slowly rose several inches.
Nan Qiao felt excited, but she quickly calmed herself down and continued trying to control the aircraft to move forward and backward.
She leaned forward slightly, and the aircraft glided forward a short distance; she leaned back slightly, and the aircraft obediently moved backward.
After repeatedly practicing moving forward and backward, Nan Qiao began to challenge a more difficult move - vertical take-off and landing.
She held her breath, gathered her strength into her feet, and stepped down hard, while silently repeating the command to ascend in her mind.
The aircraft instantly rushed upwards like an arrow, and the speed was so fast that Nan Qiao was somewhat caught off guard.
She quickly adjusted her mindset and tried to relax the output of her strength, and the aircraft's ascent speed gradually slowed down.
When it rose to a height of about five meters, Nan Qiao slowly guided the force to recover, and the aircraft began to descend steadily and finally landed safely.
She was delighted, and with a slight thought, the aircraft rushed forward like an arrow.
In an instant, the wind whistled past her ears and her hair flew wildly.
She felt as if her body had merged with the aircraft, turning, accelerating, hovering, every command was executed accurately and quickly.
The aircraft drew graceful arcs in the air, leaving behind a series of faint light and shadows.
Nan Qiao felt this unprecedented speed and freedom. This thing is very practical when brought back to the modern era.
After rounds of practice, Nan Qiao became more and more proficient in controlling the aircraft.
She saw a ten-meter-high sand pile not far away, and a bold idea came to her mind.
She stepped onto the aircraft again, her eyes fixed on the target.
As she controlled the aircraft, it quickly took off and flew towards the sand hill.
When approaching the hill, Nan Qiao seized the opportunity, took advantage of the rising force of the aircraft, and jumped lightly. He easily crossed the ten-meter sand pile and landed steadily on the other side of the sand pile.
This thing will be a very practical high-tech product in the future, whether it is chasing bad guys in the city or searching for criminals in the mountains.
Nan Qiao drove a single-person anti-gravity aircraft back to the trading market at lightning speed.
As soon as she landed, she walked straight to the boss who had just purchased the aircraft.
She came up to the boss and asked directly, "Boss, I want to know where I can exchange for interstellar coins?"
Using fruit as a barter was attracting too much attention, so she decided to use interstellar currency to keep a low profile.
The boss looked up and saw that it was Nan Qiao. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said, "You want to exchange it for interstellar coins? That's not difficult. Do you have any fruit? Especially high-quality fruit? You can put it on the auction house."
Nan Qiao frowned slightly, a little confused: "Auction house? What is the process? I'm not sure."
The boss patiently explained, "An auction house is a place that specializes in auctioning various precious items. You bring your fruit there, they will first assess the value of your fruit and then give you a starting price."
"After that, many buyers will compete to bid. Whoever offers the highest price will get the item, and you will receive the corresponding interstellar currency. The fruits you brought earlier are rare here. If you put them on the auction house, they will definitely fetch a high price."
Nan Qiao thought for a moment and then asked, "Where is the auction house? Is there anything I need to pay attention to?"
The boss pointed in a direction and said, "Go over there. There's a large circular building. That's the auction house. Once you go in, find a staff member to register your items."
"It should be noted that the auction house may charge a certain percentage of the handling fee, but this is also normal."
"Also, you have to make sure your fruit is well preserved. The fresher and higher the quality, the higher the price will naturally be."
Nan Qiao felt relieved and said to the boss gratefully, "Thank you for letting me know. I'll go check it out right away."
The boss smiled and waved his hand: "Go ahead, go ahead. Once you exchange your interstellar coins, you will definitely be able to thrive in this interstellar world."
Following the boss's instructions, Nan Qiao quickly found the magnificent circular auction house.
Its appearance is like a huge pearl, emitting a mysterious and attractive luster. People come and go around the building, and various aircraft take off and land. It is obviously the most prosperous place on the planet.
Nan Qiao took a deep breath and walked into the auction house calmly.
As soon as she entered the hall, she was stunned by the sight. The spacious hall was ablaze with light, and countless amazing treasures were displayed around it, each one seeming to tell of its own extraordinary origin.
Aliens of all kinds were walking around, some were carefully appreciating the exhibits, while others were whispering about the details of the transaction. The atmosphere was warm and solemn.
She walked straight to the service desk, where she was greeted by a star-like being with tentacles and sharp eyes.
Nan Qiao said politely, "Hello, I want to auction some fruit, but I don't know how to go about the formalities."
The Antennae looked her up and down, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes, but he quickly regained his professional demeanor and said, "Dear Madam, please bring out the fruit you want to auction. We need to evaluate and identify it to determine the starting price."
Nan Qiao waved his sleeves lightly and took out several brightly colored, plump and round apples, pears and bananas from the space jade pendant and placed them on the table.
As soon as these fruits appeared, they exuded a fresh fruity fragrance, attracting the attention of many aliens around them.
The Antennae picked up an apple and examined it carefully, surprise in his eyes. "The color and texture of this fruit are truly rare. I've never seen such a perfect fruit in the stars."
Then he took out a small instrument and scanned the fruit lightly. A series of complex data immediately appeared on the instrument.
After some testing and evaluation, the Tentacles looked up and said to Nan Qiao, "Madam, according to our appraisal, your fruits are of extremely high quality, with unique nutritional value and taste. We suggest a starting price of 500 interstellar coins per fruit. Are you satisfied?"
Nan Qiao was secretly surprised. She had never expected that these ordinary fruits on Blue Star would be so precious here. However, she remained calm on the surface and nodded slightly, saying, "Okay, let's go with this starting price."
The Antennae Star continued, "Okay, then please provide some personal information and we will handle the auction registration procedures for you.
At the same time, the auction will begin in three interstellar hours. You can wait in the auction room or go deal with other things first. We will notify you via the communicator at that time."
