Killing enemies increases your attributes and you rise from cannon fodder!

Nine fifty-five.

The door to the auction hall opened.

The two big bosses, Qi Jianmin and Ma Decheng, were the first to enter the auction hall, surrounded by the heads of a number of large families.

The entire auction hall is spacious and bright.

Rows of multifunctional chairs are neatly arranged with wide spacing between them.

The huge venue only has twenty rows and more than three hundred seats.

Qi Jianmin and Ma Decheng walked to the first row and sat down in the two seats in the middle.

The rest of the people then rushed over and looked for their seats according to the numbers on the electronic invitation.

The heads of the big families, several officials in charge of important departments of F369 planet, and their family members were all arranged in the front rows.

Then came the heads of the medium-sized families... in order.

What surprised and incomprehensible to everyone was that Li Feng and Jiang Wanxin's seats were actually arranged at the right edge of the first row.

This is the treatment that can only be enjoyed by the heads and family members of the large families on F369 star that monopolize a certain industry and have family members serving as high-ranking officials in the political arena.

A family like the Jiang family has huge development potential and has been tacitly placed on the same level as the big families. Jiang Honghai and his three children were only arranged on the right edge of the second row.

Behind Li Feng and Jiang Wanxin.

"As a mere second lieutenant, I'm afraid the only way to get two front-row invitations is by selling yourself into slavery, right?"

Jiang Chuxue couldn't keep her composure after all, and couldn't help but mutter something in a neither loud nor soft voice from behind.

Li Feng and Jiang Wanxin turned a deaf ear.

They are all people who don't like to show off their verbal skills.

When we can easily deal with the Jiang and Li families, we can just take action.

There is no need to waste time in verbal arguments.

Jiang Chuxue, who was ignored, wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Jiang Honghai with a look.

If a fight breaks out in such a situation, both sides will be embarrassed and it will be a lose-lose situation.

The higher one's status, the greater the loss of face.

In the eighth row, Li Zhenye wanted to stand up several times, but suppressed the thought several times, feeling quite uneasy.

Just like the Jiang family, knowing that Li Feng had no talent for cultivation, he also believed that Li Feng must have asked the seniors of the reconnaissance ship for help and promised some conditions to get the two front-row invitations.

The purpose was to retaliate and demonstrate to the Jiang and Li families.

But they know the inside story, while others don't.

He really wanted to go up to Li Feng and say hello.

If it were an ordinary person, it would be impossible to reach the top even if he risked his life.

No matter how much Li Feng paid, being able to get an invitation to the front row at least meant that he could talk to officers whose status and position were not inferior to Qi Jianmin and Ma Decheng.

If the relationship can be eased and Li Feng can be persuaded to return to the Li family, it means that the Li family will also have a military background.

Even if he ignored her, at least in the eyes of the people in the middle and back rows, he and Li Feng knew each other.

However, he was afraid that Li Feng would lose face and turn against him regardless of his image when he was surrounded by big shots.

That would be a real loss of face.

There are two minutes left until the auction.

The auctioneer walked up to the auction table and began a brief, passionate speech.

An alloy cage was pushed in by an intelligent robot.

Inside, crawling was a level 20 wind rat.

At ten o'clock sharp, the auctioneer officially announced the start of the auction.

Everyone's attention immediately shifted to the auction.

Making connections is just a side benefit. The most important reason for them to participate in this auction is to successfully bid for one or two members of the Wind Rat Clan.

Part of the reason is that a turbulent era has arrived.

The conflict between the Human Federation and alien races is bound to escalate.

If you are in Area F and your family or friends have slaves above level 20, your safety can be greatly guaranteed.

The other part is the family business, which requires such powerful slaves.

With the advent of a great era, the Human Federation has restarted its expansion, and their industries will also usher in a new round of expansion opportunities.

The demand for powerful slaves is even more urgent.

The latter's desire is undoubtedly stronger.

Some are even ready to do it at any cost.

The results were just as they expected.

A level 20 Wind Rat slave was originally worth only about 100 million.

Although there is no demand for it, the price is too high and it is not cost-effective.

When necessary, it is better to directly hire security companies and interstellar mercenaries.

The Human Federation has restarted its expansion. The planets with life that are about to be conquered are all vacuum areas in all walks of life. It is the best time to seize market share and expand wildly.

The price of a level 20 Wind Rat slave would undoubtedly skyrocket.

The starting price given by the auction house is directly 100 million federal coins.

One hundred and ten million, one hundred and twenty million, one hundred and thirty million...

Unsurprisingly, the bidding price also rose sharply.

Only after reaching 200 million did the pace slow down a little.

Seeing that the bidding price reached 250 million, Li Zhenye gritted his teeth and directly entered a price of 300 million into the bidding device on the armrest of the multi-functional chair.

"Three hundred million, bidder number 112 bids three hundred million!"

Auctioneer, update the bidding price immediately.

For a moment, the auction hall fell into silence.

This price has exceeded the budget of many small and medium-sized families.

They are considering whether to raise their target price.

Li Zhenye and Li Weimao's heartbeats both quickened significantly.

The Li family's share of the transportation industry has fallen from a peak of 50% to 30% today.

And the downward trend still shows no signs of stopping.

Li Zhenye has decided to give it a try.

If we can capture one or two level 20 Wind Rat slaves, the safety and credibility of the transport team will be greatly improved.

To this end, he raised 500 million yuan to participate in this auction, determined to win.

But whether it can actually be obtained remains unknown until the auctioneer brings down the hammer.

"Three hundred million first time... three hundred million second time... three hundred million, bidder number seventeen, bid three hundred and ten million!"

The auctioneer's voice made Li Zhenye and Li Weimao's mood plummet.

Li Zhenye's expression kept changing and he was hesitant.

He didn't expect that the big family in the front row would be so eager to not even let go of the first level 20 Wind Rat slave.

If the first big family meets its end, there will definitely be a second and a third.

Once the tone is set, the big families in the front row are very likely to monopolize all the Wind Rat Clan members in this auction.

He wanted to raise the price, no matter what, at least to get a level 20 Wind Rat slave.

And I was afraid of offending the big family that made the bid.

"Three hundred and ten million for the third time, deal!"

Before Li Zhenye made up his mind, the auctioneer had already brought down the hammer.

Then the auction for the second Wind Rat Clan was announced to begin, still at level 20.

The situation was the same as Li Zhenye had guessed.

The bid had only reached 200 million when another big family directly raised the price to 320 million.

Small and medium-sized families dare not compete.

Even big families will give face and not compete.

The third place was the Wind Rat Clan, another large family, which paid 330 million.

Small and medium-sized families have completely given up hope.

They understood that these big families had reached a complete consensus through the first two auctions and decided to monopolize and divide up this group of wind rats.

It’s not that small and medium-sized families cannot afford a higher price, but they cannot afford to offend these big families.

340 million, 340 million, 350 million...

The speed of transactions is accelerating.

These big families bid in turn and took over a famous Wind Rat slave.

Small and medium-sized families dared not offend him and were completely reduced to supporting roles.

Similarly, the big families that divided up these Wind Rat slaves did not want to rashly offend the owners of these Wind Rat slaves.

The bids in each round will not be lower than the previous round, they will only increase and not decrease.

When the auction of the level 21 Wind Rat Clan began, the price was directly raised to 400 million.

At level 22, the prize is 500 million.

32 Wind Rat slaves, the number is constantly decreasing.

From beginning to end, only Li Feng and Jiang Wanxin were watching the fun in the front row.

Next, Qi Jianmin and Ma Decheng are sitting on the Diaoyutai.

They did not participate in the auction.

No need to participate in the auction.

Participating in this auction is equivalent to sending a signal that they are interested in the Wind Rat Tribe.

After the auction is over, naturally the big families that participated in the auction will send Wind Rat slaves to their doorsteps.

What they need to consider is what these big families want and whether to accept it.

……

Li Zhenye looked grim, but he was powerless to change the situation.

The only thing he could consider was whether he could find a big family afterwards and offer a higher price to buy a Wind Rat.

The Li family’s assets are actually not low.

Even though the transport convoy was attacked more than ten years ago and suffered huge losses.

The total assets also exceed 30 billion.

Only 500 million yuan could be raised, mainly because the Li family's assets were concentrated on the transport ship.

In addition, as the performance share has been declining year after year, banks are reluctant to lend.

But if there is a real need, it is not difficult to secretly sell a number of properties or transport ships and raise tens of billions or hundreds of millions.

Some are happy and some are sad.

In the front row, Jiang Honghai and his children were all smiling happily.

Relying on the face given by the major families, their Jiang family also made three bids, spending 10 billion to capture two members of the Wind Rat Clan.

The price is not low, but it is worth it.

Because the Jiang family's main business is the gambling industry, there is also a huge demand for Wind Rat slaves above level 20.

Jiang Honghai, in particular, has decided to ride the wind and venture into those life planets that will be occupied and colonized by the Human Federation in the future.

Having slaves above level 20 not only helps you to keep your property in such high-risk areas.

Coupled with the connections and potential of his elder brother, the major, he is even qualified to try to compete with those interstellar gambling companies for the licenses of death fight, unlimited betting and interstellar on-demand in this blank area.

"One billion for the first time, one billion for the second time, one billion for the third time... Congratulations to bidder number five for successfully bidding on a level 26 Wind Rat slave."

At just half past eleven, the auctioneer brought down the hammer, finalizing the ownership of the last level 26 Wind Rat slave.

In the front row, Li Feng and Jiang Wanxin, who had been watching the fun, stood up.

Walk towards the alloy cage next to the auction table.
