Superstars of Tomorrow

It was Colonel Edmund who was in charge of leading Fang and summoning them to the service area. He was middle-aged, looked a little serious, and was serious. He was the direct descendant of Shangta, the supreme commander of Baijixing.

Edmund is already eighty years old this year, and he is only middle-aged in the new century. However, Edmund knows in his heart that it will be difficult to go further. Even if the base expands and develops better in the future, he may not be able to make a breakthrough.

There is a saying in the interior that after the age of 80, if you have not made a breakthrough, you basically have no chance. What's more, Edmund has no background. If he hadn't followed Shanta closely, he wouldn't even have the status he has today.

Knowing that he was too old to climb up, Edmund thought that after this year, he would change jobs. Like many comrades in arms, he would go back to his hometown and spend the rest of his life in local agencies. one step opportunity.

Shanta also knew Edmund's thoughts. Knowing that this capable subordinate was leaving, Shanta also gave him this opportunity to show his face in front of the camera more, which might be good for changing jobs in the future.

Therefore, Edmund valued this opportunity very much. Even though he used to look down on those little stars, when facing Fang Zhao and Lin Kaiwen, his serious face rarely had a smile on his face, and the pressure he brought was less a lot of.

A convoy set off from the base, and in a car in the middle of the convoy, Edmund explained the mining area to Fang Zhao and Lin Kaiwen.

"There are three existing mining areas, two basic mining areas, and one energy mining area. The mines produced in the basic mining area are mainly used for construction, and the mines produced in the energy mining area are used for energy supply. The basic mining area is completed by the automatic freight system. How many people are needed. But not every construction site can use the automatic freight system, such as the energy mining area, the equipment will be disturbed, and the excavation machinery may cause huge losses. Therefore, in general, such mining areas where mechanical equipment cannot be used need manpower It has been mined, and service is generally of this type. What we are going to now is the energy mining area."

In front of the camera, Edmund didn't seem nervous, but Fang Zhao felt that it wasn't that Edmund wasn't nervous, it was just that he didn't show it. Fang Zhao can also guess some of Edmund's thoughts. Mr. Fang and the old lady have both told him about the army. Coupled with Fang Zhao's previous experience, it is not difficult to guess Edmund's thoughts.

This is also the reason why Fang Zhao is willing to cooperate with them in this show, to give Edmund more opportunities to perform, to let more people know the value of Baijixing's mineral deposits, and to attract more investors to share the pressure. Baijixing The leadership is happy, and it will give more convenience to those who serve in the army and still carry tasks.

Edmund told them that in the basic mining area, the mine cart convoy can transport thousands of tons of ore raw materials in one trip, and those are used for base construction.

A trip that can transport thousands of tons of raw materials sounds like a lot, but compared with those bases that have a lot of military expenditures, manpower and materials, it is pitifully small, and it is not enough to see. The mine trucks dispatched by those bases every day, every trip The quantity is recorded in tons.

The amount of transportation is small, and the manpower cannot keep up. The expansion of bases and outposts scattered around is becoming more and more slow.

The road the convoy traveled was the usual road, and they did not encounter any other aggressive creatures. The road went smoothly. After about 40 minutes, they arrived at the energy mining area.

The mining area is guarded by garrisons to protect the safety here.

Lin Kaiwen turned on the camera again. He wanted to control the camera to fly up and take a comprehensive picture of the mining area from the air, but he was stopped, saying that the layout of the mine area was a military secret, so he only took pictures of the surrounding situation.

Edmund led them into a mine where today's mining work had already begun. Fang Zhao could hear the sound of ding ding 嗙 嗙 coming from inside. Two mechanical conveyor belts transported the stones out, and one One is to transport waste rock, and the other is to transport energy mines.

Edmund casually picked up a rough stone from the transport belt and handed it to Fang Zhao and Lin Kaiwen. A stone with high transparency is wrapped in the dark brown stone body.

"A-grade rich ore, strictly speaking, is considered A-grade." In ore classification, A-grade is also divided into three grades, A+ grade, ordinary A grade, and A-grade. For an energy stone of the same size, an A+ grade energy stone can provide more energy than an A- grade energy stone.

However, to be able to reach Grade A, this kind of energy ore is already very good. The reason why Baijixing was able to establish a base was not only because it had life and could live in people, but also because of its own mineral deposits. Light energy alone cannot sustain the huge energy demand for base development, and the most important thing is energy mines. Baijixing is an A-level energy mine, and the preliminary survey shows that the content is quite large, enough to maintain the development of the base and subsequent expansion.

"It's a pity," Edmund sighed, "I was too careless when digging, and it broke. The grade of ore of this size will definitely drop. However, these boys have only been mining for half a year, and it is already enough to maintain this level." Not bad."

Edmund would say good things about the young people who were serving in the live broadcast. There were quite a few viewers watching the live broadcast. Too much criticism in front of these viewers would be annoying.

A whole piece of energy stone is definitely better than broken into several small pieces of energy stone, and the commercial value alone will be higher. However, if the mining people are inexperienced, or they are distracted, not focused enough, or too sloppy when mining, they may break off a large piece of energy ore and dig it into several pieces, resulting in a decrease in the grade of the ore, which is what many people call Said ore depletion.

If the service system is still a two-year system, maybe this phenomenon will be better. As soon as one year of mining experience has been accumulated, you have to retire, and then a new person comes over. It is strange that the phenomenon of ore dilution will improve.

"Ore depletion is unavoidable, even if it can be mined with a machine, it will happen." Edmund said the truth, but it also meant to excuse those young people who did not have much experience in the service. He knew that most of the people watching online must be parents, and they would never want to hear base officers speak ill of their children.

Edmund can get to where he is today, and his emotional intelligence is not too bad. Even if the audience can't like him, at least there will be fewer people who hate him.

"Mining is a technical activity, unless it is some old miners with many years of experience, otherwise, no one can avoid this situation."

While Edmund was speaking, a man wearing overalls and fully armed to the head ran out of the mine. He took off the helmet, revealing a young face.

"You are here!" The young man looked excited, turned his gaze to Fang Zhao and Lin Kaiwen next to Edmund, and then swept the camera floating in the air, his smile increased by two points, his demeanor restrained a lot, and he raised his hand to flirt I brushed the hair that was pressed by the helmet to make the hairstyle look better.

Edmund understood the other party's little thoughts very well, and without saying anything, he turned around and introduced to Fang Zhao, "Haydn, he came over last October, the captain of this mining team." After speaking, he looked at Haydn again, raised his Pointing at Fang Zhao, "This is..."

"I know I know, Fang Zhao, I have admired you for a long time! I like your music style very much!"

Haydn wanted to say a few more words at first, but when he saw Edmund's eyes, he swallowed all the remaining words, put his helmet back on with some reluctance, "Shall I take you into the mine?"

Two soldiers brought over two sets of uniforms for service personnel, and helped Fang Zhao and Lin Kaiwen put them on.

"Go in." Edmund raised his chin at Haydn, signaling him to lead the way ahead, his eyes intersected briefly with Haydn.

"Hey, good!" Haydn said happily. Looking through the transparent mask, he gave Edmund a look of "you are at ease". He has arranged everything, and there will be absolutely no embarrassing situations.

Edmund was relieved. Haydn's ability is still there. Among the mining team, Haydn's rating is the best, and he has experience in mining, otherwise he wouldn't be the captain of this team.

There are lights in the mine, so it doesn't look dim. If you continue to walk in, you can see some service personnel who are using tools to mine.

Seeing that Fang Zhao's live broadcast signal light was on, he hurriedly took a pose, rushed to say hello, tried to make his voice appear in the live broadcast, or showed his face, although the mask covered half of his face, but he couldn't tell his family and friends Can you match the number by looking at the eyes and listening to the voice?

Haydn brought Fang Zhao to a stop, where there was a box containing tools, most of which were pickaxes.

Haydn picked one from the inside and handed it to Fang Zhao, "Try first?"

Fang Zhao took the tools and found that these excavation tools were not as simple as they looked. There were also some sophisticated power devices inside, and the materials were also specially made. This is not a tool specially prepared for Fang Zhao. The servicemen in the mining area all use this kind of tool. They don't need to use a lot of force to chisel a stone from a hard stone wall.

However, if you want to dig out better-grade ore and reduce the situation of digging, you still have to accumulate experience.

"There are a lot of ore in our mining area. You don't need to pick a place, just dig here." Haydn seemingly casually pointed to a certain place on the wall of the cave.

Lin Kaiwen, who was standing next to him, found it funny. Even he couldn't be fooled by such a clumsy method, how could he be able to fool those shrewd businessmen?

Bai Jixing's leadership wants to attract more investors, and this is to let Fang Zhao act as a babysitter.

Then tell the audience: Look, this little star is mining for the first time. He chooses a place at random and digs out the ore with one pick. We have a lot of ore here. Although the ore level is not particularly high, it is better than the quantity. ah! Interested investors come quickly!

Lin Kaiwen suppressed a smile and asked Fang Zhao who was looking at the cave wall, "How does it feel?"

"Feeling? It feels like there is something behind here." Fang Zhao said.

Edmund raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his face deepened slightly. It's right to have something! Dig quickly, let the online audience know how densely distributed the ore is in the Baijixing Mine!

Lin Kaiwen gestured to Fang Zhao, indicating that the camera angle had been adjusted and the excavation was ready.

Fang Zhao weighed the power pick in his hand and swung it towards the cave wall.

Boom——

A piece of the cave wall was pried loose, Fang Zhao moved the handle, and the pried loose piece fell. The strength was still greater, and the stone to be pried off was relatively large.

Haydn looked at the knocked stone, and the smile on his face became forced. Obviously it is a very promising ore-rich land, and he also asked a few experienced old miners in the base to look at it. Why are there only a few scattered energy stones in the rocks that were knocked down?

However, what attracted the most attention was not the stone that fell on the ground, but the creatures that appeared on the stone wall as the stone fell.

A bug living in the ore vein area is as big as two palms. The bugs that can move in this kind of place look hideous, and the one in front of them looks even more ferocious. But anyone who is familiar with this mining area knows that this kind of bug looks scary and has a stronger defense, but it is actually very stupid.

Colonel Edmund said to a soldier beside him with a dull face, "Drag it out and bake it."

Haydn trembled. He always felt that he was talking about him when he heard these words. After all, he was not good at handling things. He quickly gave Edmund a look of "be safe and calm". This time the luck is too bad, and the next place will definitely be able to dig. When he arrived, he picked several spare places.

A chapter that was not finished last night.
