"What do you think?" Chen Mu whispered. If he had to bite the bullet and spent money to identify the authenticity of this news, there would be no more trouble... the premise is that the other party is indeed willing to cooperate.

"No!" Zhang Yuan shook his head and immediately expressed his objection.

"We have two thousand Amoeba points on hand, which is different from only one thousand on hand, and we have a strategic level. You must know that it will cost a lot of money to rent a planetary fortress!"

"If the other party still doesn't choose to cooperate, we will be miserable!"

Chen Mu was speechless and extinguished his thoughts.

Yes, 1,000 amoeba points, how much technology can you buy? How much time can you save?

After thinking about it for a while, all humans, including the Toss, were in a dilemma, and had no way to compromise or give in.

The most difficult thing in the world is trusting each other... Even though the two sides have cooperated before, that kind of cooperation is a world of difference compared to the current cooperation! Mobile::

Even some contradictory voices arose within the Toss civilization. Since humans are so confident, there are still some possibilities for this news to be "true".

That is the curvature technology that the third-level civilization dreams of. Who doesn’t want to get it?

Although the Toss civilization has a deformed technology tree and has many flaws, it also wants to obtain this technology.

However, even if they are very eager, they still can't do it. They can't pay 2,000 amoeba points first.

Think about it with excretion organs and know that this is impossible.

What if humans are liars?

In this way, when people distrust each other, a solution was proposed within humans: the two civilizations paid 500 amoeba points respectively to distinguish the authenticity of this news, and the problem of trust between each other can be solved.

However, five hundred amoeba points are also a considerable asset, and there are many oppositions within human beings.

Zhang Yuan licked his dry lips. At that time, their laboratory only received 3.4 amoeba points. The entire new human civilization spent more than 200 amoeba points, and the overall life was extended by 200 years. Now it is costing 500 at once. What is the difference between spending 500 yuan at once and cutting a living flesh!

The Toss civilization will never agree.

For the Toss civilization, it would be too funny to spend 500 Amoeba points to judge the authenticity of humans’ news! What if it is fake, wouldn’t it cost 500 in vain?

For them, 5 amoeba points are the upper limit that they can bear!

Yes, 5!

No more penny!

This is still based on the good reputation they have worked with in the past, that is, the other party believes that the goodwill of the new human civilization is worth only five Amoeba points, which is the biggest concession they can make.

It was just so noisy and noisy. After half a day, nothing was discussed.

Zhang Yuan frowned and pondered for a long time. He didn't speak. He suddenly felt like he thought of something: "I seemed to have thought of a feasible method... First of all, we need to know how many of the other party's belongings are."

"All the belongings?"

This question is not particularly weird.

One of the negotiating experts replied: "This is difficult to count. We have no internal spies infiltrated it, so how can we know all the other party's belongings?"

"However, judging from the external performance and the prosperity of trade, this Toss civilization is relatively wealthy, theoretically richer than us. After all, they have magnetic field perception, which can be regarded as a rare species in the interstellar civilization, and the technology tree is also quite unique. Over the years, they have been selling their productivity... They have been here for tens of thousands of years, right?"

"So, conservatively estimated, 6,000 points, a little more, 9,000... it shouldn't be much more. If this number is exceeded, they can completely let the Huantai Civilization help them tailor their eyes, and there is no need to struggle like now."

Toss civilization really hopes to increase optical perception capabilities in its own perception, even for black and white images or infrared rays.

This is a well-known point.

It is actually not difficult to study a pair of bionic eyes, and Toss civilization has been able to do it long ago. But the eyes are just "hardware". The most difficult thing is to form real perception in the brain, that is, "software".

"Software" is many times more difficult than "hardware" itself.

If there is no such concept innately, it will be difficult to make up for it after birth. If there is no such content in your mind, it will be too difficult to make breakthroughs based on civilization itself.

Zhang Yuan deeply understood this point. After he joined the Super Dimension Perception Laboratory, the original stuck content soon made a major breakthrough. This is because after that encounter, there was a little more difficult-to-described content in conventional language in his mind.

Zhang Yuan said: "In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, take the median number. The other party has a Amoeba points of about seven or eight thousand, right?"

“That’s right.”

"...So, we can first let the other party sign a confidentiality agreement to freeze most of the other party's points, and don't worry about leaking the secret."

"Then, you can inform the other party in full."

"Why?" Mr. Chen Mu frowned, not understanding what Zhang Yuan wanted to express: "In this way, what if the other party didn't pay afterwards? What if he regretted it? Wouldn't he make a fortune in vain?"

"Mr. Chen, what is the most important thing between civilization and civilization?"

"It's a benefit."

Zhang Yuan explained: "However, a truly visionary civilization will not only consider the current interests, but also consider the longer-term interests."

"As long as we freeze the other party's amoeba points, the other party will not leak the secrets again. Unless the other party wants to lose 5,000 amoeba points in vain... Oh, by the way, we have to add clauses to prevent the Toss civilization from deliberately leaking secrets, throwing the can, selling this news to various civilizations, and earning back the 5,000 amoeba points..."

"Anyway, block the possibility of their leaking news."

Minister Chen nodded slightly, this clause must be the best.

Zhang Yuan continued: "Immediately after the other party got this news and judged its feasibility, what did they most desire?"

"As long as it is not the kind of descent civilization, they must want to obtain curvature technology!"

"So, they will face the same difficulties as us. They will find that the nearest neutron star-neutron star system is too far away from more than a thousand light years. It takes 4,000 Amoeba points to rent a battle star before it can fly over."

"Unless they are willing to abandon their motherships and only rent a few transport spacecraft, but in the vicinity of neutron stars, it is absolutely impossible to abandon their motherships in dangerous environments at any time. Planetary fortresses must be rented."

"At this moment, the Toss civilization will fall into the same predicament as us. They found that after freezing 5,000 amoeba points, they could no longer be able to pay an additional four thousand amoeba points by relying on themselves."

"What will they choose when they find out that they don't have enough funds to complete the plan?"

Zhang Yuan waved his hand vigorously and came to a conclusion: "I will make the same choice as us."

"The best way is to work with us! As long as they are sensible enough, they should choose this way!"

The conference room suddenly became silent, and then a buzzing discussion broke out.

Yes, the probability of this happening is very high!

"Mr. Zhang Yuan... You are right, but there are some things that are wrong."

A young diplomat raised his hand and signaled: "This also leads to another problem... Since the other party knows that we humans also want to go to that place, they are likely to be unwilling to bear the extra cost. Even if both parties cooperate, the 4,000 transportation costs are likely to be equally divided by both parties, and each civilization will have two thousand points."

"...If the other party wants to bear more transportation costs, the other party may be unwilling to do so. After all, we humans must also go to that place, so why should the other party give in?"

"Although we paid 2,000 points, it also went against the initial wish. It was equivalent to giving the other party an important news for free. Even if we found a partner, we still suffered a huge loss!"

"No, no, you are wrong about this!"

Zhang Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "The other party cannot choose a partner. Apart from us humans, the Toss civilization cannot choose another partner... If you want to choose another partner, it is equivalent to leaking the secret, and you will have to bear the loss of 5,000 Amoeba points." Computer terminal::/

"They absolutely cannot afford this loss!"

"But we do not have such confidentiality clauses, we can choose other partners... Such inequality brings the possibility of signing an unequal treaty."

A sly light flashed in his eyes: "If this Toss civilization wants to greed for this news and does not give us any benefits, then just give it to them."

“We can choose another partner!”

"If we leave the trading market, the Toss civilization will be locked in the trading market until the confidentiality period stipulated in the contract expires. At that time, they will either find another partner and spend 4,000 points to rent a battle star, but can they really find a partner? I doubt this, it is difficult to find a partner for such a big thing."

"Or, I spent 4,000 Amoeba points alone to rent a battle star, but in this way, it took thousands of years for no reason and paid more Amoeba points. By then, the trading market will be disbanded. Who knows what the situation is?"

"So, after rational judgment, cooperating with us immediately and immediately is the best strategy for the other party."

"Do you think this method is possible?"

Everyone was stunned. Zhang Yuan's plan was very clever. From the perspective of game theory, there was no problem.

"But..." a diplomat questioned again: "What if the Toss civilization does not have this desire for cooperation after hearing this news? Not every civilization is as willing to spend a lot of time and background to do this."

"Although the information we provide is very complete, a large part of it is still speculation..."

"The confidence in this matter is not high, absolutely not 100%, or even 50% is still a problem."

Zhang Yuan lowered his head and whispered: "If they pretend that they didn't hear the news of Curvature Technology and were unwilling to do it, then there was nothing they could do. It only means that this is a depressed civilization. It is our luck not to cooperate with them. It is better to choose another partner."

Hearing this, Mr. Chen Mu sighed quietly and looked at the information on the table.

From the years of contact, this Toss civilization has a very high degree of rationality and still has a little lofty ideal.

It is indeed hard to say what the specific thing is, but I didn’t feel completely indifferent when I heard about this news and simply gave up.

On the other hand, if the other party really reveals the secret, humans will get 5,000 Amoeba points for no reason. Anyway, if you have money in the trading market, you will have more room for operation.

Zhang Yuan’s plan should be quite good.

After demonstrating its feasibility, people solemnly predicted and calculated the property of the Toss civilization, how many points the other party needs to be frozen, and the biggest concessions in the negotiations, etc.

After discussing these, "Marring 5,000 points for 3,000 years" became the first important condition for the cooperation between the two parties. If this news is leaked due to the Toss civilization, then 5,000 points will be transferred to the account of the new human civilization.

If we are peaceful three thousand years later, these five thousand points will be returned to Tos civilization as it is, without any loss to the other party.

Faced with this condition, these large giant salamanders were a little hesitant. Three thousand years is not too long for an interstellar civilization, but not short.

After all, the Tus people's lifespan was only one or two thousand years old.

What's more, 5,000 amoeba points are already half of their entire civilization's wealth.

Chen Mu said very seriously: "This is the bottom line of our human beings! Friends of Toss civilization, you should know the value of the news about curvature technology. If you buy this news from the Huantai Civilization Trading Market, you will need to spend 10,000 points!"

"Now, you only need to mortgage 5,000 points and promise not to disclose this information, and you will get it! We do not charge any additional fees."

"What else are you not satisfied with? Do you want to get it for free? If your civilization refuses to even do this, then there is no way to continue the negotiations. We will look for another civilization and discuss cooperation matters!"
