Starship Age: I can deduce technology

Chapter 6 Mining in progress

In the dark starry sky, a whale-shaped mining machine is like a star in the sea, floating silently in the universe.

Qin Yue sat on the chair and looked at the scenery of the universe for a while, but the universe was no better than Blue Star. The trees on Blue Star could move and the clouds would float, but the planets, stars, and nebulae in the starry sky were decades or hundreds of years or even older. No change can be seen for thousands of years.

The unchanging scenery is as monotonous as a sticker.

After he got tired of it, he finally returned to Tomoko's interface and started writing and drawing.

Different from the high mental power in his previous life, his current mental power is only 2.56. Although he is much smarter than the average person, he still can't make up a system in his mind. For many things, he still needs the help of documents.

For example, plan development, future development ideas, etc.

"Sophon, how far is it from the mineral star?"

"0.001AU, the current flight speed is 810,000 kilometers per hour, and it will arrive in about twenty minutes. Do you want to play a song for you?" Tomoko asked.

"Okay, let's play one!"

Two songs later, the asteroid belt finally arrived.

This is a popular area for mining, so Qin Yue can see a ship passing by from time to time.

The efficiency of these miners is also high enough. The asteroid belt, which was originally shaped like a disc, was suddenly slimmed down by the mining.

On Qin Yue's side, he saw an asteroid shaped like a potato with bumps on it, rolling in the air and flying towards him.

This is a planet with obvious radiation. Through spectral analysis, the spacecraft's own system concluded that the main component of this asteroid is carbon.

"Carbon is pretty good, it comes in handy!" Qin Yue said, and asked Sophon to sail relatively still next to the asteroid. At the same time, he picked up the mining equipment and began to operate on the asteroid.

First use a big drill bit to make a hole, and then use something similar to a Luoyang shovel to dig in. With one nail, you can open two cubic meters of mine.

There are not only black carbon blocks in this mine, but also graphite, and sparkling diamonds. However, the carbon can be used to make steel, and the graphite can peel off graphene, but the diamonds are not of much use.

Just like this, another miner passed by and circled around him a few times before leaving.

Qin Yue knew what they meant. Carbon was not really a precious mineral among minerals, and only Meng Xin would regard them as a treasure.

Walking around twice, of course, you can take a look at the cute new things!

Unfortunately, Qin Yue is not a newbie in the conventional sense.

"Sophon, derive the flying blade material technology."

Flying blade material is a nanomaterial with extremely strong toughness and hardness, acid resistance, heat resistance, cold resistance, and corrosion resistance. It is a new material with strong universality that has been widely used 40 years later. It is mostly used in spacecraft. On the deck, shell, engine, missile casing, robot, and space elevator.

The latest and new material of this material is carbon.

"It's a pity that I'm not a scientist, and I don't have much memorized classic materials. Tomoko, I'll have to rely on you from now on!" Qin Yue looked at the drawings in his hand with emotion on his face.

Tomoko:.

Throw the blueprint to the Xinghai system, and the system will automatically import it. However, now there is only carbon, and other minerals are not enough, so you have to dig it.

Qin Yue looked out the window. The work efficiency of the Whale X6 was really not very high. It took half an hour to dig 6 cubic meters of ore. However, this is also a characteristic of minerals such as graphite. If it is an iron-nickel meteorite, there is no need to do this. It doesn't take much effort, just use your claws to grab big pieces into the cabin.

After another half hour, after a simple calculation, the carbon collected was enough to be used for a period of time. Qin Yue immediately took back the equipment, then turned around and continued to go deeper.

He doesn't have much time. As the country gradually opens up genetic medicines, those geniuses known to future generations will soon enter the star sea and be gathered into the hands of the country.

He does not want to compete with the country for talents, but it is obvious that he will grow faster with plug-ins, and these people can create greater value in his hands!

Anyway, there will be no room for them to perform in the next few decades. If they follow me in advance, they can be considered as selecting talents in advance!

As for why we have to recruit people when we have a plug-in?

He knows how much he weighs. His scientific research ability, command ability, and learning ability can only be said to be average. He can defeat everyone on the earth, and he can also take the lead in the face of the early BOSS civilizations. , but in the future, once he develops beyond the level of his previous life, the enemies he encounters again will be given away with his half-assed command level.

After sailing for more than ten minutes, Qin Yue encountered the second meteorite.

The asteroid belt is like this. It looks like densely packed stones in various pictures, but on the vast scale of the universe, these stones are actually very far apart. Two stones may not touch each other once in tens of thousands of years. .

The same is true for miners. If you are lucky, you can always discover new asteroids, but if you don't, you will have to sail for a long time without seeing a meteorite.

Qin Yue's luck seems to be very good.

"It's a silicon-based meteorite." Tomoko reminded.

"Grass!"

The composition of asteroid belt meteorites can be roughly divided into three categories.

Carbon-based meteorites, silicon-based meteorites and iron-nickel-based meteorites.

Carbon-based means that meteorites contain high carbon content. This type of meteorite is located in the outermost periphery of the planetary belt, that is, the side closest to the sun, with a total content of about 33%.

Silicon-based means that meteorites contain high amounts of silicon. These meteorites are mainly found in the middle of the asteroid belt, with a total content of

Iron-nickel base means that meteorites contain a high amount of iron and nickel metal.

I don’t know what silicon is, but it can be understood as various stones.

This kind of ore is undoubtedly the lowest value, so when building a space city, someone will dig out the stones, and most people don't need this.

After bypassing the meteorite, Qin Yue continued to move forward and soon found another meteorite. Unfortunately, there was already a ship next to this meteorite.

Qin Yue walked around silently. There are no weapons installed on the current mining machines, but later generations of mining ships, even merchant ships, and cargo ships will have weapons. Generally, if there is no need, everyone will encounter them in unsupervised star areas. They are all carefully avoided.

This can be regarded as following the previous habit.

"Ding, there's a call requesting access!" Tomoko suddenly said.

"Take it!" Qin Yue said.

"Hey, hello, are you the whale on the ship next to me? My ship is full, can I lend you some space? Don't worry, the cost will be borne by you!"

"I'm full too, you can find someone else!" Qin Yue replied casually, and then moved on.

"Full? You're a liar!" On the other ship, the driver, no, it was the captain. He looked at the direction Qin Yue was heading and let out a chuckle.

The fully loaded ship goes deeper, are you going to dig out the air?

But wait!

As usual, the rental fee is not low. Your empty ship needs to search for minerals and dig, which is a time cost. But if I give you the rental fee, you can go back now and you won’t lose much!

So, why are you so anxious to run inside?

The driver thought for a moment, then immediately pulled out the mechanical spike from the meteorite, then turned the spacecraft around and followed.

"Master, there is a ship following!" Tomoko said.

"That's just right!" Qin Yue smiled and said: "Turn back, I remember that the meteorite he just lay on was an iron meteorite. Since he doesn't want it, it belongs to me!"
