The Reluctant Bidder

Chapter-5: The Last One Left

After selling 19,999 planets, only one planet was left, and it was Earth. The main reason was its excessive price. Even though it was a historical planet with a lot of potential from the viewpoint of Mr. Cocoon and Mr. Leolo. However, it was good for nothing for the bidders. The reason behind this thought was the drought of Earth. Specifically, the level of drought on the surface of Earth was so great that bidders thought that there had been no rain, no living beings for ages, and a lifeless planet was anything but worthy to be bought. The Earth’s half-destroyed ozone layer was another important reason for them to think its rate was excessive. As a result, when Earth was kept in bid as the 19995th planet, no one was interested in buying it. Thus, after finishing the auction, 19999 planets out of 20000 planets were sold. In the end, Mr. Cocoon once again took Earth in bid with the price of 2 quadrillion.

Chapter-6: A Reluctant Bidder

Although the price of Earth was lowered, no bidder was interested in buying it. Mr. Cocoon was going to close the auction. Suddenly, a small little alien named Mr. Braxon bade 2.5 quadrillion. Everyone was shocked as someone had bid on a worthless planet. Since everyone had bought at least one planet, no one had bid back, and it was gone to Mr. Braxon who was a reluctant bidder himself. The main reason he came to the auction was because he was a businessman who wanted to build a universal amusement park. Since his planet was overpopulated, neither was there a place to build a universal amusement park, nor was the government would allow it. That was why he came to this auction. There was only one planet which had 2 bidders, it was named Yelxon; Mr. Braxon was from this planet. The other bidder from Yelxon was Mr. Yelnox. Mr. Yelnox was the head of Yelxon and brother of Mr. Braxon. He had bought more than 30 planets. Mr. Yelnox bought Jupiter and Mars. After Mr. Braxon had bought Earth, he was angry with him for wasting money on such a useless planet. Mr. Braxon, however, did not care and went visit Earth. Since the planets had been sold, Mr. Cocoon had closed the auction.

Chapter-07: Working things out

After buying Earth, Mr. Braxon went to see the condition of it and have an idea about how to make it a universal amusement park. When he came into the Solar System, he found out Earth, the droughty planet, has a faint ring. However, when he got closer, he came to understand that it was a ring made of trash instead of chunks of ice and rocks. One could see how disappointed he was. But he did not lose hope; he landed on Earth and made a virtual idea of how he was going to decorate the universal amusement park on Earth. Firstly, he thought of making the area of Asia a historical museum that would consist of the history of every planet and their civilizations. Then, he thought of making the area of Europe an amusement park that will have all the rides of the universe. Lastly, he thought of making Africa a zoo, which will consist of all the existing animals and information about the animals that existed before with their virtual image. He had a plan of making Antarctica a kid zone as well. It took him more than a week to plan how he was going to turn the Earth into his dreamland, the universal amusement park. He had so much stress thinking about the plan that he did not sleep for the whole week. As a result, he went back to Yelxon to take some rest for a few days.
