Chapter 29 Mining Barge
The blue sky has always been a warm smile, as if there is nothing in his world that can make him sad, and nothing will make him fluctuate.
Whether he is the president of Tadun Group, Tianxun Group, or the Minister of Finance of the Berwick government, Blue Sky has always been the breeze. Even if he spends tens of billions of dollars, he will not look excited. But now, when he heard that Yunyi planned to give him the Blue Moon Group, he was excited.
"No, this absolutely not!"
Blue Sky immediately refused: "Since Blue Moon Group has been acquired by Tianxun Group, that is the group's industry!"
Yunyi said carelessly: "Although Tianxun Group is my own asset, I understand that without your operation and management means, even if I have the technology of artificial wormholes, it will be difficult to develop the group to what it is today. This group has always been operating in your hands, and I haven't been able to give you anything but salary. So, don't refuse this."
The blue sky said excitedly, "I don't need any rewards. The boss handed over Tadun Group and Tianxun Group to me for management and gave me this position where I can play my strengths. I am very satisfied. As for rewards and so on, the annual salary is enough. As for Blue Moon Group, no matter how it fails, it is still a large group worth hundreds of billions, and most of its assets are extremely good. As long as it operates well, it will definitely achieve an annual profit of nearly 10 billion yuan!"
"All right." Yunyi didn't want to argue with him about this issue: "I said I'll send you to you. Whether you accept it or not, he is all yours anyway. If there is nothing else, I will continue to study my mecha.
Seeing Yunyi's irresistible look, Lan Tian smiled bitterly and said, "This is something worth hundreds of billions of dollars. You actually said you would give it away. Alas..."
shook his head and saw that Yun Yi wanted to leave. He agreed and said, "Okay, I accept it. Thank you very much. I will let my father manage Lanyue Group, and I will continue to manage Tianxun Group and Tadun Group for the boss.
Yun Yi nodded with a satisfied smile.
"Come here this time..." Blue Sky continued to talk about other issues: "The Berwick government wants to continue to expand the size of the fleet, but you have never allowed the construction of Wumu-class warships. The information from our intelligence personnel in Iseras a few days ago shows that the size of the fleet in Iseras has been expanding over the years, and the number of our fleet has not increased. Many hawkish officers have asked for the hope that the country can increase the size and number of the fleet.
"Well...this is a problem." Yunyi thought carefully that now that the scientific research planet has been built, only those experts in ship design will begin to design new warships after understanding the warship technology of the New World Federation. According to the technology of the New World Federation, the warships manufactured casually are several times stronger than Wumu-class warships. This is also the main reason why Yunyi does not allow Berwick to build warships. After the emergence of new warships in the future, Wumu-class warships are bound to be eliminated. Now manufacturing can only be a waste of human, material and financial resources.
After thinking about it, Yun Yi said, "This matter will have to wait. At most half a year, the new warship should be able to be designed and put into production. However, this matter must be completely confidential. As long as you, Liang Zecheng and Qi Daoxue know about Beric, don't broadcast it, so as not to startle the snake.
Blue Sky nodded solemnly: "Okay, I see. In terms of policy, is it still mainly about hoarding various metal materials?
"Yes, you must hoard it. The more the better." Yunyi said, "If I guess correctly, it won't be long before the materials used by the whole galaxy to make warship mecha will rise. If the price is still stable now, we must buy more."
Blue Sky said, "Money is not a problem. Unfortunately, Berwick's current sphere of influence is still in the region of the Lichma Federation, an old power. Absolutely part of the easy-to-exploit planets and asteroid belts have been exploited, and the rest are not easy to mine and *. There are few self-produced ores, most of which are purchased from other countries. Now the southeast universe area, one of the main production areas of ore, has been integrated into the Xie Lei Chong Alliance, and the Alta region, our main ore source, is also occupied by Maiah. The future rise in ore prices is absolute. But I'm afraid that if there is a war, some countries will ban the sale of ore, which is a big problem.
Yunyi frowned slightly, which is really a big problem.
After thinking about it, Yunyi thought of a super-large mining barge that had been seen in the New World Federation. This barge is very large, even more than the flagship warship, and its overall size is comparable to that of the Aquarius ship. Such a huge spacecraft, coupled with hard outer armor, new mining devices and huge storage space, can operate smoothly in some extremely difficult areas.
With this kind of spacecraft, the more stable area in the Dead Star Belt can be mined. The celestial bodies in the Broken Star Belt are all kinds of broken fragments of planets and stars. Many minerals that are usually hidden inside the planet are extremely difficult to mine can be seen everywhere. However, due to the complex and harsh environment, no mining company or country dares to mine here and there is no corresponding equipment. If there is a super-large mining barge, although it cannot be mined inside the broken star belt, the surrounding area is still possible.
Thinking of this, Yun Yi said to the blue sky, "Wait a moment."
After saying that, he opened the light brain in the room, tapped his hands quickly, and connected to the central light brain of the rock base. He has the highest authority to browse all the information at will and quickly find the design drawings of the mining barge. Because the importance and technology required for this kind of civil ship are not as high as warships, the permissions required for this design drawing are not very high.
As soon as it was opened, Yunyi suddenly "h" and looked at the design drawing with some doubts.
The screen shows that the number of visitors to the design drawing is 132, which is not unexpected. The authority of the design drawing is not high, and as long as the students who have graduated from the advanced college can read it. But to his surprise, there were several messages under the design drawing.
"Very good mining ships, heavy defense and huge storage space can fully adapt to most environments. Although I don't understand the working principle of the engine system of this spacecraft, most of the others have been understood. In my opinion, the ship type of the spacecraft seems to be a little unreasonable. Although the cigar structure is suitable for most cargo spacecraft, in areas with a more complex environment, the steering and movement will become extremely slow, 180 degrees. It takes an hour and a half to turn around!"
After reading this message, Yunyi nodded with approval. The data of the spacecraft is also shown on the design drawings. Due to its large size and slender cigar type, the horizontal steering will become extremely slow. Even in the New World Federation, it has been regarded as a typical failure by countless designers.
But in fact, after the study of Yunyi, he found that the spacecraft was designed in this way is extremely correct. After all, this is a mining barge, not a warship, and it does not require flexible and exciting speed. Generally, when mining, it often stays in one place for a few days and doesn't care about the turning time of an hour and a half. However, this man's reminder made him think of another problem. If the spacecraft is built to work in the Broken Star Zone, in that complex environment, the turnaround time will be too long, which is not safe for the spacecraft!
There is a second message below.
"What is said on the first floor is that if this kind of spacecraft is flying in a safe area, there is no problem. But once you encounter pirates, even if you drive a small warship, a small pirate group with only a dozen people can easily use the heavy size of the mining ship to fight in circles and easily win. In my opinion, if this spacecraft adopts an oval structure, in addition to the rear main engine, four secondary engines and eight steering engines will be installed in the upper, lower, left and right directions, which will increase the speed a lot, and the steering time will also be shortened to about 20 minutes.
"Hello, second floor, I'm on the first floor. After reading your message, I also thought about it carefully. If you follow your method, the speed of the spacecraft will certainly increase, but at the same time the cost and operating costs of the spacecraft will increase by at least two-thirds. In terms of civilian use, there are some gains and losses. Unless you go deep into some more dangerous areas, you can make a lot of profits.
"Hello, I'm on the second floor. According to your statement..."
"Second floor, I mean..."
“......”
"...on the second floor, I'm in the sixth laboratory of the structure of the warship area of the spaceship laboratory. Come and let's meet and talk."
This is the message below the design drawing. From the communication between the two, Yunyi keenly realized that they seem to have discussed a spacecraft that is extremely fast, but at the same time has strong mining and carrying capacity. It is just that the cost and operating costs of the spacecraft are higher, but this kind of spacecraft is It's more suitable for Berwick. Berwick has a lot of money and doesn't worry about this at all. Moreover, the target of cloud wings is not ordinary minerals, but precious minerals in the Dead Star Belt, which is the most suitable to use this kind of spacecraft.
I looked at the date of the message, which was half a month ago. I don't know how those two people are doing now.
Thinking of this, Yunyi's heart was itchy. At this moment, he said to the blue sky, "It seems that someone has modified this kind of spacecraft. I'll discuss it with them first to see how they are going. If it succeeds, I will improve the design of the spacecraft and give it to you in at most half a month. After returning, build some and apply to Chu Tang to open mines in the southern area near the Dead Broken Star Belt in the name of Ta Dun Group. With this kind of spacecraft, it is completely easy to excavate on a large scale at the edge of the Broken Star of Death.
"You mean...the broken star belt of death?"
After listening to Yunyi's words, the blue sky was shocked! He can clearly know the name of the Broken Star of Death, and the terrible scenery he saw along the way is still difficult for him to forget. But as a businessman, he is also very clear about how much valuable ore is contained in this dangerous place. Countless rare mineral deposits and a large number of metals in demand are very valuable and strategic reserves. Unfortunately, due to their complex environment, countless mining companies and countries are deterred.
And Yunyi now actually said that he would not be overjoyed to have a spaceship that can be mined in such a place.
"Are you serious? Can there really be a spaceship that mines stones in the Death Star Belt? Lan Tian said in surprise, "Go quickly and get the design back as soon as possible. With this kind of spacecraft, we can exclusively mine the huge treasure house of the Death Broken Star Belt. Whether it is ordinary ore or rare mineral deposits, it is simply how much it costs. After sending it, I don't have to look at the faces of the country bumpers of Xie Lei Chong Alliance for a few minerals in the future, hahahaha..."
From the excited voice of the blue sky, Yunyi could hear that for the sake of the country's reserve of ore, the blue sky may have suffered a lot of anger, otherwise he would not have lost his temper.
Yunyi couldn't help apologizing, and at the same time, he secretly made up his mind that even if his personal mecha was released for the time being, he would design the mining barge first, at least not let the blue sky be angry with others.
After saying goodbye to the blue sky, Yunyi immediately came to the square of the rock base, entered the orbital elevator, and moved to the spaceship laboratory located in the spaceport.
