Interstellar Energy Tycoon

After a few days.

The morning of August 16.

Qiongya Province, Wentian launch site, a new launch platform, parked a giant aircraft.

When a beam of golden light shines down vertically, it hits the 'turtle' of the plane.

The plane began to tow slowly into the air.

"Fuck!"

"It's so shocking!"

"Fuck, fuck!"

In the tourist area.

Countless uneducated voices rang out, but even highly educated and educated people, seeing this scene, I am afraid they will follow suit.

In the command and control hall.

Seeing the "Julong" aerospace plane on the screen, the huge body rose to an altitude of 10,000 meters, received higher and higher power of the beam of light, faster and faster, ignoring the influence of gravity, with an indomitable momentum, Run into space.

"No matter how many times I watch this scene, it still shocks me, just like the previous rocket launch." An expert sighed.

"I never thought before that there would be such a large amount of energy contained in light energy? I never thought of such an application method. In fact, we have entered a dead end. As long as our thinking is flexible enough, we can change lanes and overtake in any field. "The engineer next to him clasped his hands.

"This method may not have been thought of by no one, but without superconducting capacitors, high-thrust ion engines, and these technical prerequisites, this is just a brainstorming idea, and it is difficult to realize." Another expert was noncommittal .

"No, no, you have to have this kind of bold and innovative brain hole first, and then you have the mode of beam power and emission. In fact, the most core technology is only a superconducting material. As long as you invest a lot of money in research and development, Could it be more difficult than controllable nuclear fusion? President Li of Xingyuan Group must have had this idea first, and then succeeded." The old expert said.

"That's right. A superconducting material cannot be more complicated than controllable nuclear fusion. It's just that not many people think that light energy can be used in this way. What our country lacks most may be this kind of innovative talents." Someone agreed.

"Hahahaha~"

Expert Wang Mingyi laughed heartily, and said very proudly: "It is estimated that Xiao Li from Xingyuan Group would not have imagined that we could build this 120-ton empty crane with a maximum load capacity of less than two months. The 200-ton "Julong" aerospace plane and their "Xingyuan" took a year to complete. Our efficiency is more than six times that of theirs, and the plane is even bigger. This is our organizational capability , The advantages of large-scale project capabilities, if Xiao Li is wise, he'd better not produce any aerospace transport aircraft, just buy ours directly, it's easy to manage."

"Old Wang, you think too much."

The chief expert Long Yonghao shook his head and said: "Xiao Li likes to get stuck in other people's necks the most, and is most afraid of being controlled by others. It is impossible to purchase our aerospace aircraft according to your ideas."

"Why can he only hold us by the neck instead of holding each other's hands? Is it fair for him to unilaterally block us? We also have to develop some advanced equipment and technology so that Xingyuan Group can rely on us, otherwise we will I can't sleep well." Wang Mingyi said very unhappy.

"Yes, Lao Wang, you snore a little bit when you sleep, but when you think about getting your neck stuck, your snoring becomes quieter."

Long Yonghao teased him.

...

The first flight of the Dragon aerospace plane was successful.

But did not return to land on the ground.

Instead, head straight for the moon.

A new energy relay satellite of Xingyuan Group also follows this space plane and supplies energy all the way. In the future, this satellite will be deployed in an orbit near the moon to provide light beams for human mining activities on the moon. able to serve.

The Aerospace Industry Corporation launched the "Dragon" with three astronauts and three geological experts, a total of six people, and dozens of various types of prospecting equipment. Do a rough mineral exploration on the surface, mark some high-value ore veins, and report to the blue star.

So it starts on August 17th.

Every day, some good news is delivered from the "Julong" aerospace plane to the Azure Star, which has attracted the attention of the whole country and caused a sensation all over the world.

"Today, 15 billion tons of high-grade iron ore have been discovered. The burial is relatively shallow, and the mining value is very high. Moreover, the iron ore also contains about 3.5% titanium element. After mixed smelting, the strength and toughness of the ferro-titanium alloy obtained will far exceed that of ordinary steel. , valued at more than 10 trillion."

"In this moon crater, there is a high-grade rare earth ore vein. The content of rare earth elements exceeds 15%, which is more than 10% higher than the best rare earth ore on Azure Planet. The reserves are estimated to be 30 million tons. There is also a part of the higher value heavy rare earth, which is of great mining value, enough for human use for more than 50 years, and the value is not less than 500 billion.”

"At the bottom of this crater, we found a meteorite with a very high gold content. It contains at least 300 tons of gold, worth more than 100 billion. It is not buried deep and has extremely high mining value. Some of the gold is exposed in the It’s right, we’ve already started digging, and we found that this is a very good sample, and we can bring 10 tons, no, 30 tons back to Azure Star.” The three astronauts actually forgot their duties of prospecting, turned themselves into miners, buried themselves in digging for a long time, and even started the live broadcast of mining, which caused an uproar all over the world.

"No mining, we guarantee that after digging out this half-kilogram diamond, nothing will be dug. What's the matter, here is another fist-sized diamond, and there are more here, too many, too many, Friends, this diamond mine should come from a certain meteorite, and the reserves will not be less than 100 tons, and we only took away 100 samples."

"Silver mine, under this extinct volcano, there is a silver mine with reserves of 100,000 tons, worth 200 to 300 billion yuan, not bad, and has mining value."

"Well, the soil of this lunar sea contains a large amount of potassium, sulfur, phosphorus and other elements, which can be directly transported to Azure Star and used as fertilizer, but the value of mining is not very high. At the price of fertilizer on Azure Star, The lunar soil that can be used as fertilizer is not competitive in price, and the only advantage is its reserves, which are at least tens of billion tons, which is very large.”

"The radioactivity in this area obviously exceeds the standard, indicating that it contains very rich elements such as uranium and thorium, which can be used as raw materials for nuclear (fission) power plants. The reserves are about 100 million tons, but the mining value is not great. Humans don't need this kind of waste anymore. Too clean energy material."

"..."

In more than ten days.

The Dragon has scanned and explored every corner of the moon, making major discoveries every day, marking a total of 113 minerals with mining value, and the total value of iron ore, titanium ore, rare earth, gold, silver, copper and other minerals discovered , more than 150 trillion yuan.

You know, this is just a rough exploration.

It can only scan up to ten kilometers below the surface of the moon, and the radius of the moon is more than 1,700 kilometers. If we can continue to go deeper, I don’t know how many high-value minerals there will be.

So until August 30th.

The Julong, which completed the lunar surface scanning exploration mission, was fully loaded with 200 tons of various lunar ore samples, and returned to the blue star.

The whole country is boiling.

The whole world has paid close attention to and discussed heatedly, and some countries have initiated proposals not to allow mining on the moon, but they have been ignored.

Of course, the most excited and fanatical are the owners and investors of the first batch of 1,000 mining companies that have successfully joined the "Moon Mining Alliance".

In the Moon Mining Alliance exchange group.

"There are more than 150 trillion worth of minerals that can be mined. One thousand of our mining companies will get one point, and each company will get at least 150 billion. All of us can become billionaires, hahaha!"

"When will the relevant lunar mining vehicles and transport vehicles be developed? I can't wait, can you hurry up?"

"Yeah, it's been more than two months. Mining trucks and construction trucks haven't been produced yet. Isn't the efficiency too slow? Is the salary of the R\u0026D personnel too low? Give me a monthly salary of 100,000. If you don’t have money, I will pay! Just let me be the first to use the mining truck.”

"To go to the moon to mine, you don't have to use a mining vehicle. Give me a shovel and a pickaxe. I can dig out dozens of tons of ore a day. Just send me to the moon. Large-scale equipment is not available for the time being." need."

"That's right! It's just digging a mine, there is no technical difficulty, and the moon's gravity coefficient is small. I can easily dig out gold ore weighing two to three hundred catties. I am the best mining equipment."

"Yeah, we don't lack anything, especially money. Every day these days, some people, carrying large bags of cash, ran to my company to send money, saying that it was an investment for my company, and I would not accept it." It won't work."

"I also encountered this kind of situation. If those investors with tattoos and fat all over their bodies don't accept their money, I suspect they may kill me with a knife. I found that I have not even gone to the moon to mine. There are hundreds of millions of cash flow."

...

the other side.

Inside the villa on the waterfront south of the Yangtze River.

Recently, Li Xingyang, who has put his focus on work again, found that in the family group of "love each other as a family", the eldest uncle Zhang Zhengliang and the second uncle Zhang Zhengxin have been very active these days.

Posted countless videos of weightlifting, weightlifting, rope throwing, running, massage and other fitness activities, sweating profusely every day, and exercising desperately.

"Uncle and Uncle, what are you doing, why do you keep exercising all day long?" Li Xingyang couldn't help asking once.

"Xiaoyang, your second uncle and I are going to mine on the moon soon, how can we do without a good body?" said the uncle.

"Hoohoo~ The goal of your uncle and I is to develop six-pack abs as soon as possible, and the physical fitness must not be worse than that of astronauts, otherwise we won't be able to dig much ore." The second uncle who was running said.

"Xiaoyang, uncle, I misunderstood you before, and I want to apologize to you. This time you helped us get a valuable mining qualification, which shows that you still have us in your heart...Xiaoyang, it was our fault before, no I should show my face to you."

"I was wrong, Xiaoyang, too. I hope you don't take it to heart. After my second uncle goes to the moon, he will dig two high-value mines and bring them back as gifts for you."

"That's right, it's best to bring back two pieces of dog's head gold and give them to Xiaoyang."

"Elder uncle and second uncle don't need it, you can collect it yourself."

Li Xingyang sweated, and replied: "You are almost fifty years old, you should take it easy, no matter how important mining is, it can't be as important as your body."

"Yes, we understand."

"Thank you for your concern, I will do what I can."

The two uncles nodded and said yes, but they did not stop for a moment when they rolled the iron with their hands and ran with their feet. After all, they were determined to go to the moon to have a hard time, and they didn't have a strong body. How to compete with young lads?
