Chapter five hundred and fifteen signing a treaty

After listening to human requirements, these Tosses thought in surprise and wondered about the possible traps contained in human requirements.

The new humans have not put forward many conditions, and it makes sense. Assuming that the two sides really have the will to cooperate, a confidentiality agreement must be signed.

but……

“…”

After much discussion, they still believed that the biggest risk was that humans might defraud these 5,000 amoeba points!

After all, this trading market will be disbanded in three thousand years. At that time, most interstellar civilizations will leave this star field and will never meet in the future. Anything may happen in the whole process.

What if the news leaked by humans themselves is the result of the Toss civilization, wouldn’t it be a waste of 5,000 points?

"…What do you think?"

Thomas, the leader of this group of large giant salamanders, said that he was the highest official position here and the administrative commander of the entire civilization.

The Toss did want to obtain curvature technology, and was willing to pay a certain price for it, but did not want to bear such a huge risk.

"...It's not that easy for the other party to cheat. This contract is guaranteed to be fair and just in the trading market. We just need to analyze the possible loopholes and then use supplementary treaties to avoid it."

The interstellar trading market guarantees the leak of the contract and does not judge the authenticity of the information in the contract. This is the basic service of the trading market, and the cost is not much. Both parties need to jointly bear the cost of 5 Amoeba points.

Anyway, whether the curvature news is true or fake, the Toss civilization can keep it confidential.

If the new humans really cheated during this period, such a large order, the Huantai civilization would intervene in conducting strict investigations. Generally speaking, it would not be so easy to cheat.

Thomas sent out a series of ultrasounds from his mouth: "...If the news that the new humans said is true, then their demands are not excessive. But I was thinking, what is the need for two civilizations to cooperate? The new human civilization and us are not in a deep relationship. If there are clues to curvature technology, can't it be possible to do it yourself?"

"Maybe they were in trouble and needed a large amount of Amoeba points, so they were willing to tell us?"

After discussion, no one was discussed.

After a long time, one of the staff replied: "Sir, we should add some regulations to the cooperation treaty: if the news leaked by humans themselves has nothing to do with us."

"And, we can also ask the new human civilization to use one or two thousand amoeba points as collateral. If the news leaked by humans themselves and deliberately frame us, then this part of the amoeba points will be used to compensate us for our reputational losses to reduce the risk of fraud."

Thomas nodded slightly and immediately rejected the plan: "They cannot agree. From a logical perspective, after all, it is the other party who told us the news, how could he guarantee it himself?"

Another staff member said: "But no matter what, I still have to mention it. If the other party really wants to cheat, I believe the other party will give up."

Another Tosser said: "Also, I think the guarantee time of three thousand years is too long. Maybe it should be changed to one thousand years or two thousand years. Three thousand years later, the interstellar trading market has been relocated, and it will become more difficult for us to consume Amoeba points and must be retained for a period of time for buffering."

"Yes, it's right. It's not a big problem for us to freeze for one or two thousand years. If we remove these 5,000 points, we still have 2,600 amoeba points, which is enough to deal with all diplomatic affairs. But these 5,000 amoeba points must be thawed before the trading market is relocated!"

“…We have to catch up with the last wave of auctions in the trading market!”

He also said: "On the other hand, the confidentiality of this news should not involve the common sense known. Let me give you an example, suppose there are several things in it: the hydrogen atom spectrum formula is 1/λ=r, the half-life of uranium 235 is 700 million years, etc. Do we also keep it confidential for this?"

"Of course not!"

"Otherwise, there is no need to attend any future academic exchange meetings, and scientists will accidentally let it go!"

A group of Toss discussed various issues very rationally, including various loopholes, what is their bottom line, how much risk can they bear, etc.

Even after discussing the complete related matters, some Toss people flew back to their base camp to prove its feasibility. It took nearly a month in the middle, which was a salvation for the new human in the embassy.

The Toss civilization is such a very rational race. When faced with such big things, rationality is higher than emotion. Everything is organized and the details are done to the extreme.

This ideology has both advantages and disadvantages.

To put it better, the chance of making mistakes is small, and the probability of becoming a depressed civilization has been reduced a lot. Most Toss people are not very strong in the concept of "enjoying life". As long as they can sleep and eat well, even if they can enjoy it, they don't have much desire.

But at the disadvantage, these giant salamanders have a bit of Buddha nature and a bit stubborn. Their world is either black or white, not complicated, and the social system is constantly standardized by the "saints" that appear one by one in history.

The sages believed that society needed to make continuous progress, so they kept making continuous progress.

In addition, after being exposed to all kinds of civilizations, including the suspected "destroying civilization", most Tosses also believed that society needed progress.

This is enough.

Of course, no matter how smart the Toss people are, they would never have thought that there would be a big pit waiting for them in the future. Because the new human civilization had never thought about fraud at all, the Toss people's direction was completely wrong.

In this way, the two sides were talking back and forth, and the regulations stipulated in various contracts were written longer and longer, with thousands of pages!

Of course, people are unwilling to freeze the two thousand amoeba points on the human side. If they freeze all their belongings, what else can they do in the future? And I kindly ask you to cooperate with you to tell you a huge news and ask me to guarantee myself. What is this? It is completely inconsistent with normal logic!

Finally, after two months of negotiations, the two sides finally reached an agreement: Toss civilization needs to freeze 5,000 points, as collateral for leaks, and the freezing period is two thousand years.

But if humans leak secrets on their own, it has nothing to do with the Toss civilization.
