This scale was developed by the French mathematician Nicholas Chuquet in the late 15th Century and it goes
10^6 1 million
10^12 1 billion
10^18 1 trillion
10^24 1 quadrillion
10^30 1 quintillion
10^36 1 sextillion
10^42 1 septillion
10^48 1 octillion
10^54 1 nonillion
10^60 1 decillion
and so on up to
10^120 1 vigintillion

These days this is known as the long scale and there is also the short scale

10^6 1 million
10^9 1 billion
10^12 1 trillion
10^15 1 quadrillion
10^18 1 quintillion
10^21 1 sextillion
10^24 1 septillion
10^27 1 octillion
10^30 1 nonillion
10^33 1 decillion
and so on up to
10^63 1 vigintillion

With a googol being 10^100

A Long Scale vigintillion > A googol > A Short Scale vigintillion

Quadrillion!

Here is a link leading to an easy-to-read chart on the numerical sequences.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trillion#SI_Prefixes
And another chart!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_numbers#English_names_for_powers_of_10

Or, if your question is asking in a literal fashion, a trillion and one.

1,000,000,000,001.

Hope this helps!

Quadrillion, Quintillion, Sextillion, Septillion, Octillion...

Simply use the suffixes we learned in basic math.
Million=mil=1
Billion=bi=2
Trillion=tri=3
Quadrillion=quad=4
Etc...
