False Court
Chapter 847 Sky-High Price
"Where?"
"That general store."
"Let's go!"
Xike reacted immediately upon hearing this, and the corners of his mouth also turned up slightly.
Seeing this, Yslin and the others, who had just relaxed, became tense again. They exchanged glances, each thinking, "Not good!"
Without another word, they followed.
Akawei watched the backs of Xike and the others leaving, a hint of disdain showing on his smiling face. He was not worried at all, as if it didn't matter whether the star destroyer was sold or not.
At this time, Su Mo frowned tightly. He didn't expect this group of people to target the general store.
But thinking about it carefully, it was normal. Although the general store was relatively hidden, many people knew about it.
It was just that the things sold inside were too expensive, and normal people would not consider them at all.
But now the situation was different. This ordinary star destroyer actually required optional equipment, and after the optional equipment was added, it was so expensive, which naturally narrowed the price gap with the star destroyers in the general store.
Moreover, the star destroyer in the general store was available immediately, so it naturally fell within the scope of consideration.
"Finally gone."
Sun Duoxiang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the two groups of people leave.
"You guys go back first, I have something else to do."
Su Mo simply instructed Sun Duoxiang, and without waiting for him to reply, Su Mo chased after them.
......
Not long after, Xike and Yslin and the others arrived at the entrance of the general store in a group.
The general store, which usually had no visitors, seemed particularly lively today.
At the same time, Su Mo also approached from a distance, but he did not follow into the general store, but hid outside and eavesdropped using his colonization armor.
Inside the general store, the old man was still standing in front of the counter, looking at the group of people who came in, his face as lifeless as a dead person, without a trace of emotional change.
After entering the store, Xike walked directly to the old man and asked straight to the point, "Hello, I'm here to buy a star destroyer."
At this time, Yslin and the others no longer hesitated, and without saying a word, they said, "Hello, old man, we are also here to buy a star destroyer."
Xike turned his head and said to Yslin and the others with a sneer, "You haven't earned enough contribution points yet, what qualifications do you have to buy?"
"That's not up to you. We can make a full prepayment."
Yslin was determined to ruin this.
If the Gaomotos Empire really obtained a star destroyer, it would be terrible.
A sinister smile appeared on Xike's face.
"It is said that the Federation is low-key, but little do they know that the dogs that don't bark are the most likely to bite. Then let's see what you can do."
Yslin was not angry, she was long past the age of impulsiveness.
Just as they were arguing, the old man said in a hoarse voice, "No ships."
Hearing this, the smile on Xike's face suddenly froze. He turned his head to look at the old man and said, "How is that possible? We clearly remember that you have a star destroyer called Phantom Flower here, priced at 500 billion star coins."
"Sold."
The old man replied coldly.
Hearing the old man's words, Xike's face became even more gloomy, and the red light of his electronic eyes kept flashing. How could he really believe the old man's words?
500 billion star coins, is that a sum of money that anyone can take out?
Looking around, who but the Immortal Empire would have this ability? Not to mention needing contribution points.
Moreover, this ship was still here not long ago, how could it be such a coincidence that it was sold just when he was about to buy it?
This guy was clearly in cahoots with Star Ring City, to put it bluntly, deliberately not selling it to him.
But knowing that the other party was playing him, Xike was not angry. He said in a deep voice, "Really no ships? Don't you have any other star destroyers?"
"No."
The old man was too lazy to even look at Xike.
Xike's expression squirmed for a while. He didn't believe the old man's nonsense. This guy was just thinking of raising the price on the spot.
He said, "It's impossible that there are no ships. How about this, as long as you are willing to sell that star destroyer to me, I am willing to pay 800 billion star coins."
As soon as these words came out, it was not just Yslin who was shocked.
The other imperial executives who came with Xike were also dumbfounded.
"No ships."
The old man replied coldly.
"900 billion star coins!"
Xike gritted his teeth and reported.
"No!"
The old man remained unmoved.
"1 trillion star coins!"
The veins on Xike's forehead bulged, and he blurted out an astonishing sky-high price.
At this time, the other imperial executives also hurriedly pulled Xike and said in a low voice, "Lord Xike, where do we have so much money?"'
"If we don't have it, can't we raise it!"
Xike was also determined to get it.
At this time, an ominous premonition could not help but rise in the hearts of Yslin and the others, feeling that something was going to happen.
Who wouldn't be tempted by such a high price!
The unexpected result was that the old man still replied indifferently.
"No ships."
Seeing this, Yslin and the others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Xike's entire face suddenly became extremely ugly.
At this time, Yslin smiled and said to Xike, "Lord Xike, there should really be no ships. It seems that you need to add a delay statement to your announcement."
"Hmph!"
Xike flicked his hand fiercely, turned around and left with his men.
Yslin turned her head and said to the officials of the other allied countries, "Let's all disperse, this farce can be considered over."
"Okay, it's good that the Gaomotos Empire didn't get to buy it as they wished. Even if they order a ship, it will take two or three years. However, this matter can be considered a wake-up call for us."
"That makes sense."
"Really scared me to death."
......
Everyone echoed.
In fact, they didn't really want to buy star destroyers now, after all, they were not very well-off. Buying such expensive weapons at this juncture would make other aspects very tight, and they were more forced to do so.
"Well, goodbye everyone."
Yslin said goodbye to everyone present.
Outside the general store, Su Mo, watching everyone return empty-handed, was also surprised.
He chatted with the Counterfeit Creator Devourer: "The difficulty of buying this star destroyer is too high."
"What's so strange about that."
The Counterfeit Creator Devourer felt it was very common.
"No, no, it's too difficult for them to buy star destroyers, how come I feel so easy to buy star destroyers, that old man wouldn't have given me an empty check too, would he?"
The more Su Mo thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
"Do you think it's possible?"
The Counterfeit Creator Devourer replied with contempt.
"The possibility is high, he's not my old man, let's go! let's go! Go to the port and take a look at that star destroyer."
Without saying a word, Su Mo ran towards Port 66.
That star destroyer cost him almost half of his fortune, although he couldn't drive it without a license. But if there wasn't even a ship, that would be a disaster.
