National Gardener: I can choose the evolution path of spiritual plants

After smelting all the spider corpses, Li Ming obtained more than 3,000 tons of D9 alloy, more than 5,000 tons of D6 alloy, more than 6,000 tons of D0 alloy, more than 300 tons of 126 element crystal core, and more than 15,000 tons of aluminum alloy.

All the element crystal cores were used to synthesize D3 alloy, and Li Ming obtained 15,000 tons of D3 alloy.

As for other types of alloys, they are also D-level metals, but the effects are different, just like iron is divided into cast iron and steel, and steel can be divided into 304 and 316.

With these alloys, Li Ming continued to produce Suzaku 07, and soon expanded to 100 Suzaku 07.

Then, he stopped the production of Suzaku 07.

There is no other reason. The energy generated by the nuclear fusion furnace every day cannot supply more Suzaku 07 for charging and fighting.

But, 100 Suzakus are enough.

Every day, Li Ming can destroy a mine spider nest and obtain a large amount of metal materials.

In addition to the metal output of spider corpses, there are also rich metal veins near many nests. Li Ming also dispatched mining machinery for mining.

In order to facilitate transportation, smelting plants were built around the veins and connected to the base using magnetic levitation tracks.

The base also entered a regular development, and basic production lines were made and put into production.

The scope of the base is also expanding step by step, and factories are rising from the ground, from an industrial zone to an industrial city.

The barren planet has undergone earth-shaking changes at a speed visible to the naked eye, from nothing to a variety of creations.

In a blink of an eye, it was five years after Li Ming came to the planet Ding-2317.

On this day, on a tall watchtower, Li Ming looked at the scene in front of him through a huge D-glass floor-to-ceiling window.

On the barren land, a steel city was lying like a giant beast, occupying nearly one percent of the planet's area.

Various transport vehicles and transport spacecraft traveled from all directions of the planet, mining metal ores such as aluminum and iron, and digging out minerals such as sand and limestone.

These raw materials were sent to the smelter for smelting and purification to produce metals and glass, etc.

Li Ming also luxuriously built a four-season cycle and ecological weather simulation system in the core area, opened up soilless cultivation farmland and pastures, and ate non-nutritional pills.

In the year 1363 of the star calendar, Li Ming completed the construction of the last D-level technology tree terminal production line, and the land reclamation was officially declared over.

At this time, the base has covered tens of thousands of square kilometers, with hundreds of thousands of production line processing plants, and can independently produce hundreds of millions of different precision parts.

These parts can be assembled in the processing plant through several processes to form any product of D-level technology.

Of course, in the Star Alliance, most D-level technology products are not valuable, and a single technology product is as useless as a building block in a building block toy.

Even some of the most cutting-edge technology products are ordinary and cheap, similar to lighters, soaps, paper towels, toothpicks, etc. before the crossing.

In addition, Li Ming does not have his own "trademark, brand", nor does he have a sales channel, and the D-level products he produces cannot be sold at all.

Even if it can be sold, there are countless pioneers like him. The seller's market is larger than the buyer's market, and the goods have no market at all.

But these production lines are indispensable. They are interdependent and together constitute the industrial cycle of this planet, which is self-sufficient.

In the process of land reclamation, these production lines are established not to produce products for sale, but to build a "virtuous industrial cycle system". The purpose of land reclamation is to produce "D-level metal materials".

Yes, the so-called "pioneers" are actually the "farmers" with the largest number and the lowest status in the interstellar era! ! !

Putting aside his thoughts, Li Ming opened the French window in front of him, and suddenly a picture of the base appeared.

In a large factory building, an unmanned robot melted the proportioned materials, added 126 elements and stirred them, and a chemical reaction soon occurred.

The metal liquid turned from red to blue at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This is Li Ming understanding the current D3 alloy production through real-time data.

Since the 126th element in the cave spider's body is not enough to support the development of the base, he still needs to use the nuclear fusion furnace to produce 126th element.

The synthesis of 126th element requires a lot of energy. Due to power restrictions, the 126th element produced every day can only produce 10,000 tons of D3 alloy.

It takes 200 tons of 126th element to synthesize 10,000 tons of D3 alloy.

To produce 200 tons of 126th element, the energy consumed is not valuable, but the nuclear fusion furnace has a service life, so it is necessary to divide the total price of the nuclear fusion furnace by the service life to calculate the "depreciation fee" generated by the daily energy production.

If the nuclear fusion furnace is worth 105 credit points, the recycled materials can be sold for 5 credit points after scrapping, and the furnace can be used for 100 days, then the daily depreciation fee is (105-5) ÷ 100 = 1 credit point.

If the energy generated by nuclear fusion in 1 day can produce 1 ton of 126th element, then the cost of 1 ton of 126th element is 1 credit point.

In fact, a super-large nuclear fusion furnace can be used for a hundred years after some repairs, and only 0.5 credit points of depreciation are needed to generate energy every day to produce element 126 needed to synthesize 100 tons of D3 alloy.

Adding other consumption, the cost of producing 100 tons of D3 alloy is about 0.6 credit points, and the selling price is 1 credit point. A profit of 0.4 needs to pay 30% tax to the Star Alliance, and the net profit is only 0.28 credit points.

Ten thousand tons of D3 can only earn 28 credit points.

In the previous life, it is equivalent to a daily salary of 28 yuan.

Don’t think that Li Ming spent 10,000 credit points to buy 10,000 tons of D3 alloy online before.

That is the purchase price, not the purchase price.

The purchase price of D3 alloy by major group companies on the market is 100 credit points for 10,000 tons, which is a hundred times the price difference! ! !

"So, the farmers in the interstellar era seem to have cultivated much more advanced land, but they are still exploited!"

Li Ming sighed, if a cultivator has no background and the influence of his parents, and only relies on the nuclear fusion furnace given by the Star Alliance at the beginning, even if he successfully completes the reclamation on the planet, he can only earn 28 credit points a day by producing D3 alloy.

Farming for 30 years can accumulate 280,000 credit points, just enough to buy another nuclear fusion furnace.

At this time, you can earn 56 credit points every day.

Farming for another 14 years, the salary rises to 84 credit points per day.

Farming for another 9 years, the salary rises to 112 credit points.

Then after another 7 years, 6 years, 5 years, 4 years, 3.5 years, 3 years, 2.8 years, 2.5 years, 2.3 years, 2.1 years, 2 years, 1.8 years, 1.7 years, 1.6 years, 1.5 years..., and 28 credit points are added respectively.

In the interstellar era, people's lifespan can generally live to the theoretical limit, which is about 260 years old.

Theoretically, when they are about 130 years old, if nothing unexpected happens, an ordinary farmer can get rid of "poverty".

Because at this time, his productivity can already afford to buy a nuclear fusion furnace every day for expansion.

However, at this time, what limits him is no longer the production equipment and energy, but whether the planet he is on has so many resources for him to produce.

Therefore, it is a theoretical goal for farmers to get rid of poverty. In fact, those farmers who have been farming for more than a hundred years have almost hollowed out the planets they are on.

Instead, they have no source of production materials.

At this time, all they can do is rent a new planet to become a worker for the group company, or go to the front line of the ninth star ring to open up wasteland and build, becoming a "migrant worker."

"Alas, it's a pity that there is no way to sell directly, and the group company makes the most money. "

Li Ming learned from his previous life's memory that the fundamental reason for the big difference between the selling price and the purchase price of goods lies in the sales channel.

Ordinary people have no sales channels. Even if they register an account and open a store on the gold rush, they have to accept the fact that they are exploited by the gold rush group.

The fundamental reason is the transportation channel.

In the interstellar era, the transportation of goods mainly relies on two methods.

One is the official wormhole transmission. As long as there is a star station, it can be transmitted arbitrarily within the scope of the Star Alliance.

Wormhole transmission is inexpensive, but generally speaking it is used by the official, and civilians need to apply for a limited number of times.

Another mode of transportation is cargo ship transportation. The universe is huge, the Star Alliance has a vast territory, and the fastest speed of cargo ships is only sub-light speed. Although there is curvature navigation technology, it is necessary to move Months, years.

Therefore, major group companies have established "large star gates" on some major traffic routes, and built transportation channels through centralized sorting and transportation.

In this way, they have a firm grasp on cargo transportation.

If the D3 alloy produced by Li Ming does not go through these group companies, then he has to build his own cargo spacecraft, which is slow and difficult to sell.

Unless the price is favorable, but in this way, excluding the transportation cost and the risk of being robbed by star pirates, the profit is only 10 times more than selling directly to the group company, but the difficulty of selling has increased by thousands of times.

What's more, since private retail sales cannot be regulated, it will lead to tax problems. Therefore, private sales of goods are defined as smuggling by the Star Alliance, and they face prison sentences. Risk of imprisonment.

Li Ming did not want to be a criminal, nor did he want to be a farmer. He was even less willing to be a migrant worker, but he had no choice.

In the interstellar era, the top leaders of the alliance were all from group chaebols and millennium-old families. They controlled the upward channels of all walks of life and controlled 99% of the resources in society.

He had no way to escape from the peasant class.

Even studying could not change his fate.

Because of the development of technology, gene editing and evolutionary drugs, those people in the pyramid have a nearly perfect gene chain when they are still in the womb. They grew up drinking evolutionary drugs since childhood. They are all top elites of mankind. Their contributions may not be as great as Einstein, but their IQ is definitely comparable.

As a mass-produced The genes of Li Ming's predecessor were just the most ordinary ones, because ordinary means stable, strong adaptability, and can survive tenaciously in various environments in the universe.

They were born to be "farmers" or "migrant workers".

Therefore, after completing twelve years of compulsory education, the predecessor took the most fair college entrance examination in the world.

However, due to "talent reasons" and "family conditions" and the lack of "famous teacher guidance", he only scored 900 points out of 1,000 and failed the exam.

But the predecessor was also desperate. Unless there was a gene mutation, 900 points was already the limit for ordinary people.

Only those group chaebols and family elites could get more than 950 points.

And the score line of major famous schools is just 950 points.

This is not a score line, this is a natural chasm that divides heaven and man.

The most desperate thing in the world is not that others are better than you, but that you work countless times harder than him, and you can't be better than him who doesn't work hard.

So the predecessor had a mental breakdown and left this seemingly prosperous, peaceful, but actually cruel future world in despair.

Li Ming was actually desperate when he first came to this world.

Because he didn't have a golden finger!

In his previous life, he was an ordinary person and a social animal, and he was powerless to change himself. How could he change himself without a golden finger after crossing?

If nothing unexpected happens, he will become a hardworking farmer according to the "planned life" of the Star Alliance, working hard to cultivate planets and produce raw materials until the end of his life.

Some people may ask, with nuclear fusion and an entire planet, isn't it worry-free, plus there will be credit point subsidies for maintaining the star station, why not let it go and live a comfortable life?

Li Ming did think about it, let it go and live a life of drunkenness and dreams, and similarly, many cultivators did so. However, the life span of an ordinary person is only 260 years, and there is only one lonely person on the cultivator planet.

He didn't want to die alone and live only 260 years.

You know, once you take the D-level gene potion, you can become a D-level life with a lifespan of a thousand years.

Thousands of years!

The recorded history of the previous life is only 5,000 years.

The C, B, A, and S-level lifespans above that are theoretically 3,000, 5,000, 10,000, and 100,000 years respectively.

It has been a thousand years since the Alliance entered the interstellar era. The people of the pyramids were still there, but the billions of screws of their time had already burned out their light and heat, completed the great mission of mankind entering the interstellar, and then turned into handfuls of ashes.

This is why countless pioneers are still willing to do it even though they know they are the exploited class. They just want to save enough money to exchange for a tube of D-level gene potion.

Generally speaking, the fate of pioneers is to become farmers and complete the reclamation of the planets allocated by the Alliance.

If you don't find a partner to give birth to the next generation to get the reward of the seventh ring star, you can only choose to "sell yourself" to the top 500 groups of the Star Alliance and become a "migrant worker".

Then they worked day and night, and finally "barely exchanged" for D-level gene potions, and then worked for hundreds of years, and when their lifespan was almost over, they "barely saved" enough credit points to exchange for C-level gene potions.

As for what happened next? First, B-level gene potions were too expensive, and second, the migrant workers' potential had been exhausted and they could not take them.

Therefore, the end point of the migrant workers was to work for a thousand years, become C-level, and have a remaining lifespan of two thousand years.

However, would the ruling class be so kind? Let you work for a thousand years in exchange for two thousand years of freedom?

No, at this time, they gave the migrant workers a new "goal".

That is to save money to buy "tamed fire seeds", which is a peculiar "birth fire seeds" of silicon-based life. After being transformed by the Star Alliance, the "quantum soul transmission technology" can be used to engrave the human soul and thinking consciousness intact in the birth fire seeds, and then obtain a silicon-based body, becoming a "robot" with terrifying combat power and the ability to "cross the starry sky in the flesh".

Silicon-based life forms will not die as long as their fire is not extinguished, and fire can be replenished by hunting other silicon-based life forms.

So, the migrant workers continued to work for the remaining two thousand years of their lives, and finally, after hard work, they accumulated enough credit points at the end of their lives and became silicon-based life forms.
