As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and under the illumination of the holographic projection lamp, a star was displayed in the dark universe!
It was a beautiful blue planet. In the dark universe, it was like a beautiful sapphire. In an instant, everyone’s attention was drawn to it!
Riga Vickers.Goldcoin said, “This is an uninhabited star. The diameter of the planet is 36,000 kilometers and 34% of the surface is ground. The minimum temperature at the two poles is -60°C. The highest temperature in the equatorial region is about 40°C. The temperature range is very suitable for human habitation, especially since there are many animals on this planet—of course, some of them are very dangerous.”
A planet that was extremely suitable for human habitation. And the most important thing, there were no humans on this planet yet!
You cannot buy a planet that already had humans on it—even if you try to colonize it, the local indigenous people will certainly be against it. Even if there was a huge disparity in technology, it was still very difficult to conquer other races. However, an uninhabited planet was different, you could do whatever you wanted to!
Such a good item had everyone suddenly excited—of course, the price would definitely not be low…
Sure enough, the auctioneer Riga Vickers.Goldcoin said, “Uninhabited planet, starting price, 4 million Galaxy Dollars, the auction begins!”
“4.5 million!”
“5 million!”
“5.5 million!”
As soon as the auctioneer started the auction, everyone immediately began to shout out their bids.
There might not be a lot of resources on an uninhabited planet. The fact that this planet was getting sold here today meant that there were not any extremely valuable resource on the planet. Even if there were, it would have been taken away by the space explorer who discovered this planet.
However, the people here were not buying this planet for those resources. Their real purpose was to transform this planet into whatever they like, perhaps a castle, a palace, or a holiday resort!
Once they bought the planet, you have territory that belonged only to you. You could be a real king there. As the owner, you would be able to do whatever you want!
What could be more attractive than this?
“Dali.” Tang Muxin jabbed at Hong Dali’s hand secretly. “This planet…”
“Yes. This is good stuff! Worth buying it for fun!” Hong Dali stroked his chin and immediately called out, “Ten million!”
“Ten million!” Riga Vickers.Goldcoin shouted at the top of his voice, “This aristocrat has offered ten million. Do I hear a higher bid?”
The previous highest bid was just 5.5 million and he jumped to 10 million in one bid. Who did it like that!
Everyone more or less knew about Hong Dali’s prodigal ways by now. Who could afford to bid against a prodigal like him? With that one shout, Hong Dali took out 80% of the people who were thinking of buying this planet—the idea of having a holiday planet was tempting, but not at such a high price…
Of course, there were those who were rich and there was soon a counter-bid. “11 million!”
“11 million!” Riga Vickers.Goldcoin shouted, “An astronomical sum, definitely an astronomical sum!”
Hong Dali did not hesitate at all. He raised his paddle and said, “15 million.”
The crowd roared and started commenting—
“God, the prodigal bid 15 million for a planet that could only be used as a vacation home!”
“Such a high price… is he crazy? Eight hundred thousand for a place like that would be sufficient, but he offered such a high price!”
The person who had offered 12 million earlier started hesitating. He was stunned for a moment then he raised his card. “16 million!”
Sixteen million! This…
Before people were able to react, Hong Dali’s voice was heard again. “Round it up to 20 million!”
Damn! He even rounded it up!
Everyone looked toward Hong Dali—20 million for a holiday planet, he definitely had too much money and no place to spend it!
It must be understood that in the Milky Way, only what was on the Silver-blue super-planet in the Galaxy Alliance Center was expensive. That was because billions and trillions of people were gathered here, and it was equivalent to the most exclusive place in the capitals of the Earth.
As for an uninhabited star that was only suitable for taking vacations on? It was at most equivalent to a remote mountainous area.
On the Silver-blue super-planet, 20 million could not buy so much land. An uninhabited planet like this one was hard to come by but still not extremely rare. The market price was seven or eight million tops, and smaller ones could be bought for one or two million.
Hong Dali did something so prodigal…
“20 million! 20 million!” The auctioneer Riga Vickers.Goldcoin shouted excitedly at the top of his voice. “This Aristocrat has bid 20 million, is there a higher bid?! Anything higher?!”
Twenty million! Who would still dare fight with Hong Dali? If he suddenly came around and gave up, that person would make a huge loss!
So, the entire hall was resolutely silent. No one dared utter a word…
“Sold!”

When the auctioneer Riga Vickers.Goldcoin’s hammer fell, the audience immediately started talking.
“Twenty million! He actually spent 20 million on this. Even if he has money, he does not have to spend it like this! 20 million, where does he get it from?”
“Yes, yes. That is definitely not a small amount!”
As everyone else animatedly discussed the matter, Jiang Qianxue was thinking—she promised to give Hong Dali something. Hong Dali spent 20 million buying this… does he have enough money?
“Forget it.” Jiang Qianxue finally decided to pay for Hong Dali. “It’s only 20 million, it’s not a big amount. I will get him this if he likes it.”
Since she had decided, all she had to do was make payment when the auction was over.
Speaking of it, Jiang Qianxue could afford the 20 million. It might not be a small amount to others, but to the Galaxy Aristocrats, it was not a big amount. Anyway, her pocket money was enough for it.
On the other side, when the bid for the uninhabited planet had been successfully won, Tianyi said in a whisper, “Brother Dali, why did you buy this? 20 million, it’s too expensive…”
Hong Dali did not feel that it was expensive at all. He rubbed his nose, feeling very satisfied. “If we have any animals in the future, we can rear them on the planet, hehehehe…”
“Animals?!” Tianyi exclaimed in surprise. “You spent twenty million buying an uninhabited planet to rear animals?”
“Ah, not really.” Hong Dali explained matter-of-factly, “Some people can stay on it…” Yes, Mum and Dad can retire to this uninhabited planet in the future!
His parents had been working hard their entire lives and should have time to rest and relax. When that time came, he would rear some dragons and phoenixes, perhaps some giant tortoises and squids as well, build a castle and get the electricity and the Galaxy Virtual Network running. Wouldn’t this place be so idyllic then?
Of course, to Hong Dali, this was money well spent, but others obviously did not think so—
“The prodigal Hong Dali is not your average rich person. He is really good at squandering!”
“Next time, if you have anything you don’t want, just sell it to him. He will definitely take it. Hahaha. He’s really a kind man!”
“Yes, yes. I have a couple of businesses that are not showing a profit. I should sell them quickly!”
They were amused by Hong Dali’s prodigal antics. Hong Dali, of course, did not mind at all—as a super prodigal, he did not buy the best, he bought the most expensive!
Hong Dali was quite satisfied that he had managed to buy two things at the auction. Next were the most anticipated items in this auction—the top grade attribute gems!
Under normal circumstances, an attribute +10 gem would be worth about six hundred thousand. But attribute gems of more than +11 sold for much more than that! After all, gems that added ten or less points were what ordinary people used.
However, who were the people here? They were all Aristocrats!
There were ten over true-blue Galaxy Aristocrats and a huge group of Honorary Aristocrats!
You would usually not encounter such a top grade gem in months, especially with the Tower of Trials opened. Who would not want to increase their attributes and win more levels in the Tower of Trials? That was why these top-grade gems were especially valuable now—you could embed three gems on a weapon!
“I believe everyone would have heard about the next item up for auction.” The auctioneer Riga Vickers.Goldcoin shouted in a stirring voice, “This is a type of gem that is fascinating! Attribute gems! And we have three of these attribute gems up for auction today! The first piece is a Strength +13 gem!”
Immediately, an attendant approached with a wooden plate covered with a red cloth.
The auctioneer Riga Vickers.Goldcoin pulled the red cloth away in one move and revealed the Strength gem inside. Riga Vickers shouted, “A super top-grade Strength +13 gem, starting price, one million Galaxy Dollars!”
This was really a top-grade item! The Aristocrats immediately started bidding.
“1.2 million!”
“1.5million!”
Hong Dali did not hold back. He shouted, “3 million!”
The entire hall suddenly turned silent.
The prodigal actually bid 3 million for a gem like this! Did he have too much money?
However, honestly speaking, this super top grade gem was indeed worth 3 million. After all, Strength +13 would increase strength by 13% in the Tower of Trials! What did that mean? Someone who was stuck at level twenty could get to level twenty-one with those few attribute points! If you were stuck at level twenty-one, you could get to level twenty-two!
Attributes added up to become a significant amount. As long as you had a lot of attributes, you definitely had an advantage inside!
Hong Dali pushed the price of the gem up to 3 million in just one bid. Some of the rest had the intention to quit just then, but when they looked at the super top-grade attribute gem, they could not bear to let it go, so they continued bidding.
“3.2 million!””3.4 million!”
Hong Dali had intended to continue bidding, but Tang Muxin gave him a hard kick. “You idiot, you don’t need to attempt the Tower of Trials, why are you spending so much on this?”
Xinxin, I love you!
Just by looking at the attributes, I know this is one of mine. All that shouting earlier was just to add fuel to the fire…
Hong Dali exclaimed in surprise, “Ah. If you did not mention it I would have forgotten about that. I just thought this gem was really pretty…”
The other Honorary Aristocrats: “…”
The prodigal was just out to stir things up, damn!
