Every time Gaia's finale is a masterpiece, and this one is no exception. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The tenth lot of info has finally been revealed, and it is still a token.

At first glance, it looks a little similar to the village building token.

The auctioneer smiled and introduced: "[Satellite City Token], after using it, you can immediately obtain the ownership of the satellite city of Wangcheng, where the guild is located. The reserve price is 800,000 gold coins, and there is no fixed price, please bid. ”

"Hiss~~~"

As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, there was a gasp in the hall.

Gaia's generosity is truly extraordinary.

At this moment, all the heads of guilds in the world were red-eyed, and they made no secret of their greed for this token. Naturally, the auction price soared all the way, and in less than ten minutes, it had already pushed to 1.5 million gold coins.

The next quotation, the heads of the guilds are a little cautious.

When the price soared to 1.8 million gold coins, Scarlet Romance withdrew directly. It's not that Scarlet Romance doesn't have the financial strength, but that he's weighing whether it's worth it.

[Bloody Mercenary Group] As the number one mercenary group in China, it has absolute dominance in Xianyang, and even if it is taken by force, it has a great chance of being able to take the satellite city.

Therefore, Scarlet Romance opted out.

When the price soared to two million gold coins, the dominant guilds like Scarlet Romance withdrew from the competition one by one, and the ones that were really still keeping up were those who were not sure.

This kind of mentality is naturally not difficult to understand.

If it weren't for Ouyang Shuo reminding Lin Jing in advance, let the [Dead Snow Rose Mercenary Group] start the layout and sign the alliance before the system update came out.

At this time, Xie Siyun is afraid that she will also give it a go.

After a fierce competition, the [Satellite City Token] was finally won by the head of a guild in the United States at a sky-high price of two million gold coins, becoming the final winner.

In this auction, the two veteran powerhouses in China and the United States can be said to be leading the way.

At the end of the big play, Gaia was really polite, and without saying a word, he directly teleported a group of players away. When Ouyang Shuo returned to Shanhai City, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

The global auction cost only three million gold coins, far less than Ouyang Shuo expected. One of the reasons for this is that risk-taking player items make up the majority of this round of auctions.

Six of the ten lots were for adventurers, and two of the remaining four lord items were obtained by Ouyang Shuo, which was already a very remarkable achievement.

In the fourth year of Gaia, Gaia began to pay attention to the adventure players who accounted for more than ninety percent of the players, and continued to inject fresh blood into the adventure mode.

As for lord players, they will have to be self-reliant in the fourth year of Gaia.

************

Back at the Metropolitan Protector's Mansion, Ouyang Shuo took out the [Teleportation Order] first.

"System prompt: It has been detected that the player has a special item [Teleportation Order], do you want to use it?"

"Yes!"

"System prompt: Please select the teleportation array to build the city!"

"Friendship City."

"System prompt: The city is selected, and the teleportation array is ......"

"System prompt: Friendship City is detected to be located overseas, so the teleportation array is automatically set to a cross-border teleportation array, and the relevant settings refer to the rules of the cross-border teleportation array, please be aware of it."

At this point, there is one more city in the territory with a teleportation array.

Built in the Somali country of Africa, the City of Friendship is located between the base city and the Lion City, a key node on the great shipping route, and its strategic location is very important.

It's just that recently, Friendship City has had some trouble.

Gu Xiuwen, the guardian of the Friendship City, recently made a concert, reflecting that there has been a slight change in the attitude towards the Friendship City in Somalia.

The whole situation is a bit delicate.

The contribution of the ocean-going fleet to the Somali state is gradually being forgotten with the passage of time. Between the two, on the contrary, there is a conflict of interests because of ocean trade.

In particular, there is a direct conflict of interest between the Port of the Brave in Friendship City and the Port of Berbera in Somalia in order to obtain the docking and supply of merchant ships.

Since most of the ocean-going merchant ships are shipped from China, most of the merchant ships are willing to dock at Yongji Harbor. Even Western merchant ships, because of the existence of the Mediterranean Fleet, are more at ease with the Port of the Brave.

More than 500 merchant ships dock at Brave Harbor every day, and we are striving for the goal of 1,000. Under the personal auspices of Gu Xiuwen, the second phase of the brave port project is also nearing completion.

After the completion of the second phase of the project, it can dock more than 3,000 merchant ships at most.

In contrast, the Port of Berbera is somewhat unpopular.

Wherever merchant ships dock, huge profits can be brought in. In addition to the most intuitive profit of tariffs, tens of thousands of merchants and sailors spent in the city, which can fully support the economy of a city.

In the face of this big cake, it is normal for Somali players to be angry. At the beginning, the Somali royal family gave Ouyang Shuo the Friendship City plot, but it was just with the intention of building a resort.

Where did they think that Ouyang Shuo would be so ruthless, give up all the land outside the city, and directly build a giant city. Today, the construction of the Friendship City is nearing completion.

With the support of huge sums of money, the construction of Friendship City is more majestic than any lord city in the country of Somalia. In this way, it makes the nearby port of Berbera seem to be depressed.

Gu Xiuwen reflected in the recital that Somalia is shrinking its supply to Friendship City. The prices of grain, vegetables and other materials are also rising.

The city itself does not produce these materials, and the city's industries are mainly processing and service industries, and once the Somali state cuts off the supply of agricultural and sideline products to the city, the residents of the city will go hungry.

Ouyang Shuo got the news that he had asked Honglu Temple and the Department of Commerce to send a joint envoy to the Somali State to lobby and negotiate for a peaceful settlement of the matter.

At the same time, Ouyang Shuo also informed the Black Snake Guard's Somali Intelligence Office to appropriately conduct activities in Somalia, striving to undermine its internal unity and win allies for Friendship City.

Supplying the city of friendship with agricultural and sideline products was actually a good deal for the Somali lords.

Behind the collective resistance of the Somali lords, there must be someone in the middle of it. The mission of the Black Serpent is to find the man behind the scenes, and if possible, strike at him.

Du Ruhui once suggested to Ouyang Shuo whether to formulate a military plan to attack Somalia.

Ouyang Shuo thought about it for a while, but still refused, not because he was soft-hearted, but because the time was not ripe. The Great Shipping Route had not been opened for a few months, and Ouyang Shuo did not want to ignite the flames of war during this period and affect the territory's ocean-going trade.

Shanhai City cannot leave a bad image of a warmonger in the world, at least not yet. If you really want to attack Somalia, you have to find a suitable time.

In the case of no war, opening up the teleportation array of Friendship City has become a very effective means, so that Friendship City can get the support of Shanhai City at any time, and it will not be difficult to support itself.

Ouyang Shuo was in a hurry to open the teleportation array of Friendship City, and there was another reason.

According to the Navy Battalion stationed in Friendship City, Somali pirates who have recently been active in the waters of the Gulf of Aden seem to be on the verge of a resurgence.

Farah, who became the leader of the pirates, gradually entered the field of vision of the sailor battalion.

For Ouyang Shuo, Farah is afraid that he hates him to the core.

Ouyang Shuo was very vigilant and immediately instructed Admiral Alvaro of the Mediterranean Fleet to arrange a formation of sailors to carry out daily patrols in the waters of the Gulf of Aden.

Maintaining the security of the Gulf of Aden is in the interests of Shanhai City.

…………

When it comes to the Mediterranean Fleet, the base city where the fleet is located has not been worrying lately.

Friendship City has Somalia as a logistics supply base, but Spain behind Basics City has a bitter feud with Shanhai City, and will not trade with Shanhai City.

All the supplies in the city of friendship were supplied by France farther away.

According to Álvaro, Spain had emerged from the catastrophe of that naval battle, and the new Spanish Armada had been formed and was ready to intervene in the Mediterranean again.

This short passage from Cato de la Cité to France passes through the Spanish coast.

If Spain has the slightest bad intentions, it can cut off the supplies of the base city and starve the Mediterranean fleet. As a result, the Mediterranean Fleet is in jeopardy.

Fortunately, as early as when Shanhai City was promoted to a third-level county city, Ouyang Shuo opened the teleportation array of the base point city. With the mighty Atlantis City in the way, Spain won't make any trouble for the time being.

What the future holds is unknown.

It's not that simple to maintain a sea lane. What country in history has maintained such a trade route that is not a global hegemon itself?!

However, Shanhai City is still a long way from global hegemony. Opening up sea routes so early naturally requires a greater price and more unconventional means.

The good thing is that this is the game, and anything is possible.

Álvaro formally proposed that it would be best to find a more stable rear and logistical supply base for the Mediterranean Fleet before Spain made a big move.

The European countries north of the Mediterranean, Álvaro did not dare to consider, and his suggestion was to find a target for attack in the African countries south of the Mediterranean.

The preferred target is Morocco, which is opposite Spain.

Morocco is located at the northwest tip of Africa, bordered by Algeria to the east, the Sahara Desert to the south, the vast Atlantic Ocean to the west, and Spain across the Strait of Gibraltar to the north, choking the gateway of the Mediterranean Sea into the Atlantic.

The central and northern parts of the territory are the rugged Atlas Mountains, the eastern and southern plateaus are the upper plateau and the former Saharan plateau, and only the northwest coastal area is a long, narrow and warm plain.

Historically, Morocco has been occupied by France, Spain and other countries.

Ouyang Shuo agreed with Álvaro's proposal very much. The Strait of Gibraltar is the lifeblood of Shanhai City on the sea, and there must not be the slightest risk.

A few days ago, Ouyang Shuo had ordered the General Military Affairs Administration to study this issue in conjunction with the Nanyang Naval Division Headquarters.
