EP 1211. Stark's Inquiry
Before I knew it, the so-called meeting had lasted for more than an hour.
Because the battlefield was in Asgard, most of the subsequent finishing work only related to Asgard and did not involve the earth. Therefore, in the first half of the meeting, Shi Xiaolei and Stark basically did not participate in the discussion.
Either chime in casually, or eat and drink. Compared with Thor, who was flustered and nervous because of sudden questions from time to time, and Loki, who was thinking hard to give better answers, Shi Xiaolei and Stark were obviously much more relaxed.
It wasn't until the discussion that the meeting was actually considered an assessment came to an end that Stark raised his hand because of one thing, showing an expression of 'I have something to say'.
"What's the matter, Mr. Stark?" After noticing Stark's movements, Odin raised his hand to signal.
"I would like to ask, the territory of the dark elves..." Turning to look at Shi Xiaolei, Stark asked with some uncertainty: "What is it called? Svartalfheim?"
"Well, that's it."
"Ahem." Nodding and looking at Odin again, Stark continued: "What do you think about Svatyfheim? Now that the last dark elves have been captured, it means that Svatyfheim Mu has become a land of no one. Is it okay for me to say that? Although I don’t know whether it is a planet or a dimension, it still has some value. Everyone, you have never thought about it. Is there any development going on there? For example, mining or something like that.”
We haven't really entered the interstellar era yet. For humans who have been bound to the earth, any alien planet has development value.
Take the ‘mining’ mentioned in Stark’s words as an example.
No matter how barren the planet is, there must be resources that can be used by Earth's technology - without the precious metals or rare resources needed for high-end technology, how can there be ordinary resources that are needed for basic projects?
It is no exaggeration to say that even the most ordinary rocks still have considerable economic value to people on earth. For example, if those stones are brought back to be cut and polished into building materials, some wealthy people will definitely pay for them. After all, those materials are mined from alien planets, and the name "alien building materials" alone is enough to make many people flock to them.
The rare minerals contained in Svartalfheim will arouse the interest of scientists, and Stark is just one of the top scientists, so he is no exception.
On the other hand, as a businessman, he is obsessed with other resources in Svartalfheim.
No wonder Stark would take the initiative to ask such a question.
"Svartalfheim? Is there anything good to develop there?" Thor interrupted before Odin could speak.
"Huh?" Unexpectedly, Stark turned his head subconsciously and looked at Thor who spoke with some doubts in his eyes.
"Although I have never been there, I have read some introductions in books before. It is said that it is pitch dark over Svartalfheim. Except for the very faint starlight, there is no light at all." Here, Thor shook his head at Stark very firmly: "Believe me, it's really boring there. You won't like it there."
The meaning behind the words can be summed up in three words - not fun.
‘Is this what I’m asking? ’
After hearing Thor's answer, Stark wanted to complain, but thinking that the other person's parents were right in front of him, he could only sigh inwardly and swallowed the words that came to his mouth.
Too lazy to listen to Thor's nonsense, Stark turned his attention to Odin.
"For us Asgardians, Svartalfheim is indeed of little value." Odin also sighed in his heart, but after meeting Stark's gaze, his expression looked very calm: " But with the level of development you Midgardians have, there are quite a few minerals there that are worthy of development and utilization.”
The answer is simple and the meaning is straightforward - Asgard has developed to a higher level. The various resources contained in Svartalfheim are of value to the people on earth for development and utilization, but on the side of Asgard, which has a higher level of civilization, they are completely outdated and of no use. .
To put it simply, after the industrial revolution on earth, people began to use more coal and oil, and the demand for these resources suddenly increased greatly, while at the same time reducing the demand for more primitive resources such as firewood. The needs are the same.
"I see..." He nodded to show that he understood, and after a moment of hesitation, Stark asked again: "Since you don't have any use for it, and you don't seem to care much about it, can you give us a chance? "
"Do you want the development rights of Svartalfheim?" Looking at Stark, Odin's expression and tone did not change much, but his aura increased slightly: "This is your own I mean, still..."
"Uh, is there any difference?" Stark touched his nose and smiled coquettishly.
"If it were you yourself, of course I would not object." Odin laughed: "You captured Malekith. According to our rules, part of the ownership of Svartalfheim will be The name of the loot is transferred to your name. After all, it was originally the territory of the dark elves. In terms of nature, it is one of their belongings just like the equipment the dark elves carry. "
"However, Svartalfheim is one of the Nine Realms after all. In order to maintain the balance of the entire Nine Realms, we cannot completely let go of its restrictions and control. If you want to take your own trophies, that is, in Svartalfheim If the ownership of Svartalfheim is transferred to someone else...Sorry, we have to review the recipient. If he is not trustworthy and letting him take over Svartalfheim may cause hidden dangers, we will not. Will agree."
"If it's you, we have no objection, because you have already gained our trust. But if it were replaced by a country in Midgard, and a certain official force takes your place..." Shaking his head gently, Ao Ding's single eye revealed a very determined look: "As the King of Asgard and the Guardian of the Nine Realms, I will not agree."
"Okay, I understand." Sensing Odin's attitude, Stark gave up the unrealistic thoughts in his heart and nodded angrily: "If I didn't say it, I would just drink. It’s time to eat meat.”
"I'm sorry, I apologize for this guy. Your Majesty Odin, don't mind."
"No, I understand."
