After receiving the communication from the left-behind AI, Hao Ren sailed to Purgatory to prepare for the acceptance of the project and contact with the representative of United Mining. The only ones with him were Vivienne and Lily: the former wanted to see the eldest son again, and the latter... Do you think the latter needs a reason to join in the fun
The Rift Nebula, as it has been going on for thousands of years, has always been creating massive fluctuations in information, and in the dense purple-red air mass, there are constantly flashing beams of light and bright cracks, and in this At the edge of the cosmic rift with a width of 7.7 light-years, a new member has now appeared in the handful of star systems. Purgatory Star is like a beautiful white snowball revolving around the edge of the cracked nebula, becoming the only scenery in this desolate area. The brilliant brilliance of new stars is reflected on the surface of this white "snowball". Large expanses of golden light diffused from the top of the clouds.
The Giant Turtle Rock Terrace arrived at the upper layer of the cloud top in the face of this brilliant golden sunlight. The calibration equipment left before leaving last time is still operating above the cloud top, constantly monitoring the status of the planet as a temporary monitoring satellite. Hao Ren asked Nolan to hover less than a few tens of meters away from the top of the cloud, and first connected the monitoring equipment. The data terminal reported the situation: "The data is normal, half a month has passed, and it seems that the operating parameters of the planet are stable."
"After all, it is the power of the first leg of the true god, so there shouldn't be any problems," Hao Ren nodded. "When will the representative of United Mining arrive?"
Nolan's holographic image appeared on the bridge: "They have arrived, but their spaceship is parked at the outer edge of the cracked nebula material belt, and they can be called at any time."
While talking about her eyes, she involuntarily glanced at the console, for no other reason: a blond girl formed by a holographic projection was sitting on the console in a daze, and turned a blind eye to any outside sight, and the blond girl’s The main body is just under her ass: the brick stuck in the slot is. Apparently, the battle between the two AIs for the console finally gave this brick the upper hand. Of course, the reason has nothing to do with the so-called "Patian girl's heart".
"Don't look, it won't move," Hao Ren could only shake his head and sigh as he looked at the data terminal in "Patian" form. "Didn't I even try the crowbar just now-you should call the representative ship of the United Mining Industry."
Nolan curled his lips helplessly, and sent a navigation signal to the Fiali merchants who were waiting at the border of the Rift Nebula and a docking permit allowing them to enter the airspace of Planet Purgatory. After a while. Those profiteers and their mining fleet appeared on the monitor.
I saw pieces of light blue space cracks that looked like doors suddenly appeared on the low-earth orbit of Purgatory Planet. After these portals were opened, a team composed of more than ten large mine ships and a pilot command ship The fleet jumped into this airspace. Those Fiali spaceships have bright red paintwork, and the frontal armor belt depicts a Fiali coat of arms with a peculiar structure that looks like a queen bee. Its command ship is a slender triple-hull ship, that is, three symmetrically distributed The spacecraft structures are assembled around a common long axis. The size of this ship is one size smaller than the Giant Turtle Rock Terrace, but its unique position in the fleet and its complex and sophisticated antenna system make it clear at a glance that this is the command center of all spaceships.
However, Hao Ren's attention was more focused on the Fiali mining ship. Because they are bigger and eye-catching: the shape of those mine ships is like several giant boxes connected together, and mechanical parts that are constantly running can be seen between the joints. After zooming in, it can be seen that those mechanical parts are actually It is an extension of the Mineral Processing Facility. And on the upper and lower additional decks of the mining ship, you can also see huge open gates, which are passages for small collection ships to enter and exit. The size of these mining ships is huge. Considering their special purpose, their long axes basically reach more than ten kilometers—this can be regarded as a real giant unit among the Hongshi civilian ships. Even the Giant Turtle Rock Platform He also became a small man in front of them.
While Hao Ren was focusing on those mining ships, Nolan also connected to the main data network to transfer information about these mining ships. Hao Ren learned that these heavy and large industrial ships had a complete factory system. The rough processing and transformation of minerals can be completed on the spot, and at the end of the series of "big box" hulls is a space gate device with huge throughput. The hyperspace system can continuously transfer the processed crushed ore directly to It is located on the Fiali Mining Star in the rear. Without this mechanism. It is impossible to complete the mining operation on an entire planet with only a limited number of mine ships.
Fiari merchants have a lot of money and wealth, in order to carry out activities in each universe. They always set up offices and bases here and there. They spent a lot of money to buy several planets in this universe as their business base camps, and the first mining star is one of them: the Fiari built a whole planet and a large area around it into a mineral processing plant, and used it as a Strongholds continuously export all kinds of ores to their markets near the universe. There are even rumors that the first mining star has "eat" 1% of the mass of this universe so far - this is of course nonsense, but the Fiali businessmen gladly used this as a kind of appalling advertisement to promote publicity.
Until these profiteers were really investigated by the Matter Dispatch Department of the Space-Time Administration for "unrestrained transfer of cosmic mass without reasonable backfilling"...
Hao Ren quickly browsed through all kinds of information. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the transformation of Purgatory Planet, he must understand the technical strength of this joint mining industry. He was very satisfied with those powerful mine ships, and he felt that these profiteers were indeed capable of digging up a meteor cluster halfway—of course, they also had the ability to polish the purgatory planet.
A signal access request came from the communicator. Hao Ren straightened his clothes and returned to the captain's seat. After connecting the communication. A middle-aged man with hair combed back, wearing a neat uniform, and a mustache appeared on the projection.
Nolan held an additional holographic projection beside him as a reminder screen for Hao Ren, and Hao Ren learned from the information that the representative of United Mining was in front of him. It is said that he once led a team to dig through the solid planet with the largest diameter in the universe, and his title is "the man whose drill broke through the sky".
Hao Ren always felt that there was nothing wrong with this title, but after thinking about it, he decided not to delve into it...
"It is a great honor for me to have the opportunity to undertake this extraordinary excavation project," Vasek Creedon said straight to the point after introducing himself, "We have understood all the engineering requirements and are ready to start work at any time."
Hao Ren nodded: "Do you know the first requirement of this project?"
"Safety first," Vancek said with the utterly trustworthy expression of any good businessman—whether the expression came from the heart or not, "every one of our mine ships has a Gravity control device, the broken crust will be directly pulled into space, without worrying about anything falling. Of course, considering that the surface crust structure of the entire planet will become fragile in the second half of the large-scale mining, we have also mobilized With a sufficient number of gravity generating ships, we will pull the entire planet's surface crust directly into space."
Fansaike sent their engineering plan to Hao Ren's spaceship while talking. The data terminal confirmed the plan and performed mathematical simulations on it, and finally came to a positive conclusion: "It can achieve the effect he said. Of course, this is definitely the most cost-effective solution."
"There is nothing wrong with the project plan, and the ancillary contracts were signed according to the original document I sent you." Hao Ren raised his head, "But you only brought this mine ship? Is it enough?"
"Of course there is a follow-up fleet," Fansaike explained, "We hope to start work as soon as possible to solve the urgent needs of customers, so every time before the start of a large-scale project, we will send a group of vanguard troops to serve customers in advance. Adhering to the business philosophy: Rather increase the cost of additional preparation, but also let customers experience the perfect service as soon as possible... ”
When Hao Ren heard this, he immediately felt that these profiteers seemed to be quite reliable, and then the data terminal reminded him: "Actually, they are afraid that you will forcibly contract the project to others with the authority of an inspector, so come here first on the construction site If you play a thousand or eight hundred stakes, you won’t be able to transfer them even if you want to.”
Hao Ren: "..."
"Ahem," Hao Ren coughed dryly, "Then let's not talk about anything else, let's get to work: polish this planet." (To be continued~^~)
