I bring technology to my hometown to get rich

Chapter 507: Mining on the Moon is Too Slow to Make Money, Or Mining on Asteroids is Faster

In Liu Fei's office at the Feiyun Technology Group headquarters building, Liu Fei was receiving Li Xiting, Chen He and other giants from the Interstellar Mining Alliance.

"Boss Liu, you are so quiet. You made a fortune again, but you didn't even bring your brothers with you."

"We in the Interstellar Mining Alliance are all one family. If you have the chance to make a fortune, you must take us with you."

Li Xiting said with a smile.

"What kind of fortune is this? I'm in so much trouble now."

"You don't know, but many people are saying things about me right now, saying that I am a thief who stole the wealth that belongs to all mankind by mining asteroids. In short, there are all kinds of ugly things said about me."

Liu Fei shook his head repeatedly.

"Mr. Liu, tell me the truth, does this asteroid really contain 4800 million tons of copper and 960 million tons of silver?"

Chen He thought about it and asked very seriously.

"Yes, Mr. Liu, this asteroid is only that big. How can it contain such a huge amount of resources?"

Li Xiting also spoke up.

"Ok!"

"Science doesn't lie. It does contain a lot of metal money."

"You should already know something about asteroids."

Liu Fei nodded and said.

"Boss Liu, my brothers also want to mine asteroids. Let's make some money with you, Boss Liu."

"You also know about lunar mining. It makes money too slowly. We work hard to mine on the moon, but now the prices of various mineral resources have dropped to dirt cheap. We all earn our money through hard work."

"It's still quicker to make money from asteroid mining. This asteroid alone is worth 10 trillion, which is more profitable than printing money."

Li Xiting thought about it and directly stated his purpose.

This time, they came here with the giants of the Interstellar Mining Alliance, actually wanting to mine asteroids.

They are jealous!
Moon mining is also a very good business, and mining is so comfortable.

But mining is hard work after all, and with the current sharp drop in the prices of various resources, the money seems to come slowly.

The Feiyun Interstellar Mining Group can mine an asteroid worth 10 trillion rabbit gold each time, which only takes half a year, even if the subsequent dismemberment and smelting of the asteroid on Mars is taken into account.

Let's just say you made 10 trillion in one year. This amount of money is really made faster than printing money.

When everyone heard the news, their eyes turned red.

Moon mining is no longer popular.

The aircraft industry is also losing its appeal.

The virtual industry always feels like earning hard-earned money.

It’s still a fast way to make money by mining asteroids!

It is still in the experimental stage and has not yet entered the industrial development stage.

Once asteroid mining can be industrialized, the efficiency, cost, etc. of asteroid mining can be greatly improved.

And if you are lucky enough, you can really mine an asteroid containing tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of tons of gold, which would be enough for you to eat.

"Yes, Mr. Liu!"

"Mining on the moon is hard work, but the money comes in too slowly."

"We all want to follow you, Mr. Liu, to mine asteroids and make some money."

Chen He also said the same thing.

The others also spoke one after another, and looked at Liu Fei with expectant eyes.

“It’s a good thing that people want to mine asteroids.”

“I definitely support it!”

Liu Fei said with a smile, and naturally agreed immediately.

Someone is mining asteroids, which will also bring many benefits to Liu Fei.

One is that you can sell the spaceship yourself. The cost is 10 billion. Selling it to you for 100 billion is a brotherly price, selling it to you for 500 billion is a friendly price, and selling it to you for 1000 billion is the market price.

Not only can we make money, but we can also cultivate industries, engineers, scientists, etc. that build spaceships. After mastering the warp engine technology in the future, we can directly turn around and build spaceships that can travel across the universe.

This is very important. Any industry needs a market to maintain itself. An industry without a market cannot last long and certainly cannot grow and develop.

Feiyun Technology's spacecraft are selling quite well now. After all, lunar mining and Martian mining are in full swing, and everyone is willing to buy spacecraft to mine on the moon and pan for gold on Mars.

However, this market has now become saturated, especially now that the prices of various minerals have plummeted, everyone's enthusiasm has declined a lot, and the orders for spacecraft have decreased a lot.

This cannot continue in the long run, so it is necessary to mine asteroids so that they will see the benefits and spend money again to buy spacecraft.

The second is that with people like them pushing forward, asteroid mining can be industrialized and scaled up, allowing more people to benefit from it.

For the rich people, they make money, and for ordinary people, they can find a decent, high-paying job.

For the country, not only can it receive more taxes, but mining asteroids can also promote the development of the spacecraft industry, cultivate a huge spacecraft industry team, and greatly enhance its overall strength.

As the saying goes, the spacecraft that mines asteroids in normal times can be transformed into space battleships if aliens invade the solar system.

These interstellar miners who mine asteroids in space can become interstellar soldiers with the flip of a finger.

And the most important thing is that you can have more resources.

In the past, resource extraction was limited to the earth and within one's own territory. If one wanted to extract resources overseas, one would have to pay a huge price.

For a long time, we have been heavily dependent on imports for our resources, and it is very uncomfortable to feel like someone is strangling us.

Now we have resources in interstellar space, and the amount of resource extraction will grow explosively, which will allow us to control more and larger resources.

Not only can it meet its own development needs, but it can also export resources on a large scale.

The more and larger resources you control, the more it is not just a matter of having more wealth, but also a reflection of power, background, and so on.

So if everyone wants to mine asteroids, Liu Fei absolutely supports it and agrees with it wholeheartedly.

Hearing Liu Fei's words, everyone immediately laughed happily.

"Boss Liu is really generous. He never forgets his brothers when he has a chance to make money, and always helps everyone to make money."

"That's right. Our General Manager Liu has always done things this way. We all make money together. We make money together."

"Haha, I knew that Mr. Liu would be willing to help everyone get rich."

Everyone said something to each other.

"Boss Liu, is this asteroid mining technology difficult?"

"Any special requests?"

Li Xiting quickly asked in detail.

"As for the technology, there must be technology. After all, we are going to the asteroid belt 100 million or 200 million kilometers away to mine asteroids."

“Not only does it require a spacecraft that is powerful and advanced enough, but it also requires a team that is professional and skilled enough.”

"Don't worry about the spacecraft. You can come to me directly to buy it. I have three spacecrafts that can be used to mine asteroids."

Liu Fei smiled and started working as a salesman.

As Liu Fei finished speaking, the large screen next to him lit up, showing images of three spaceships and detailed information.

When everyone heard this, they immediately looked over.

"We named this first spaceship the 'Hercules A' spaceship. It is 223 meters long, 34 meters wide, and 18 meters high. It is equipped with the A-type interstellar anti-gravity engine developed by Feiyun Technology with its latest technology. It can mine asteroids with a maximum mass of 1.5 million tons!"

"We are all old friends, so I will give you a friendly price of 1200 billion!"

"hiss!"

"1200 million!"

Hearing Liu Fei's words, everyone couldn't help but take a breath.

Oh my goodness, this is too expensive. This is the 'Hercules A' spacecraft, which must be the cheapest one. How could you sell it for 1200 billion?
Dark, really dark!

Liu Fei's conscience is black.

Don't think that everyone doesn't know your shipbuilding cost, Liu Fei. The cost of this Hercules A-type spacecraft will definitely not exceed 100 billion. You just say 1200 billion, which is twelve times the profit, and it's a figure of hundreds of billions. Only you, Liu Fei, can do such a thing.

"The second spacecraft is the Hercules B spacecraft, which is 543 meters long, 54 meters wide and 32 meters high. It is equipped with a more powerful B-type anti-gravity engine and two heavy rocket engines. It can mine asteroids with a mass of less than 5 million tons."

"The friendship price of this spaceship is 4000 billion!"

"The third spacecraft is the Hercules C Starfield spacecraft, which is 764 meters long, 73 meters wide and 68 meters high. It is equipped with the most powerful C-type anti-gravity engine and four heavy rocket engines. It can mine asteroids with a mass of less than 10 billion tons."

"The friendship price of this spaceship is 7800 billion!"

As Liu Fei finished speaking, everyone's heads were buzzing.

Although everyone present is wealthy, easily worth hundreds of billions or even trillions.

But after hearing the prices of the three spacecrafts, everyone felt a headache and some even couldn't help scratching their heads.

Expensive, really expensive!
It feels like money is just waste paper.

The cheapest is 1200 billion, the most expensive is 7800 billion!
Oh my God, the unit behind this is billion.

Boss Liu, you are so rich that you really don't consider "billion" as a unit.

"Boss Liu, isn't this too expensive?"

Li Xiting touched his head and said, "It's true that he has money, but he can't afford to spend hundreds of billions or even tens of billions to buy spacecraft to mine asteroids."

Such a huge amount of funds requires a long period of planning and raising.

It can even be said that you need to get a lot of friends together to invest in order to play it.

Originally everyone thought that a few hundred billion would be the ceiling, but who knew that the cheapest one was often 1200 billion. It was too expensive, really too expensive.

"Yes, Mr. Liu, this is too expensive. It's really too expensive."

Chen He also had a headache. The investment was too huge, and there were definitely risks. If something went wrong and the spacecraft was lost, hundreds of billions would be lost in one go.

“It’s definitely expensive, but you get what you pay for.”

"Spacecraft that mine asteroids need to be specially designed and built, and the overall structure must be strong enough to withstand the huge pulling force."

"The engine must also be powerful enough, otherwise it would be difficult to shake a massive asteroid."

"Anti-gravity engines are all made of gold, especially the anti-gravity engines of super-large spacecraft. They are all made of gold. I don't know how many rare metals are used. I have been purchasing rare earths, and they are basically used in anti-gravity engines."

"And such an anti-gravity spacecraft must be equipped with a more powerful atomic matrix battery, otherwise it will not be able to move at all."

"Everything is made of gold. It can only be created by pouring real money into it."

“That’s the case with all high-tech stuff!”

"To be honest, I would like to sell it cheaper, but the cost is there, and everyone knows my investment in research and development. I have to sell it at a certain price to be able to sustain it."

"If it's too cheap, would you dare to use it?"

Liu Fei also complained bitterly, saying, "You say I'm expensive. I admit that I am expensive, but you get what you pay for. These are all high-tech products."

After hearing Liu Fei's words, everyone was speechless.

If they could really buy the spacecraft for tens or hundreds of millions of dollars, they might not feel at ease. After all, it is going to mine hundreds of millions of tons of materials from an asteroid, so it must be equipped with high technology to be guaranteed.

Of course, everyone initially expected that a price of tens of billions would be acceptable.

"Also, don't just focus on the price, but also look at the benefits."

"Just like the asteroid we mined this time, it is worth 10 trillion. This is a conservative estimate considering the sharp drop in the price of silver."

"Even if more people go to the asteroid belt to mine asteroids in the future, the benefits will be greatly reduced."

“But if we mine an asteroid and sell it for hundreds of billions, it will definitely be no problem.”

"Even if we only make one trip a year, the cost will be recovered. To be honest, the payback period for an investment of hundreds of billions is very long. Such good deals are rare."

"We are all from the same hometown, so I am willing to sell the spaceship to you. If it were foreigners, they would not be able to buy my spaceship even if they offered several times the price."

"They don't even have a chance to make money."

Liu Fei continued.

Hearing this, Li Xiting, Chen He and others couldn't help but nod their heads.

That's for sure.

Feiyun Technology has always taken care of its fellow villagers, and basically gives priority to its fellow villagers when it comes to any benefits.

A large number of spare parts, supporting equipment, etc. needed for various industries are purchased from fellow villagers as long as they can be provided by them.

Even if outsiders sell their products cheaper or with better quality, they can never expect to get orders from Feiyun Technology.

It is Feiyun Technology's strategy of taking care of fellow villagers that has driven the development of a large number of industries and enterprises.

Taking the anti-gravity aircraft manufacturing industry as an example, if Liu Fei is willing to sell anti-gravity engines and atomic matrix batteries to outsiders, even if he puts forward very harsh conditions, there will be people who will come forward to agree.

There are countless companies around the world that want to provide support and parts to Feiyun Technology.

If Liu Fei is willing to sell the spaceship to outsiders now, even if the price doubles, there will be people who will buy it without hesitation.

But even if they had money, Liu Fei would not sell it to them.

This kind of thing is only sold to our own people.

"Mr. Liu, this is really too expensive."

"If we have to take out so much money all at once, we will be seriously short of funds on hand."

“Can it be cheaper?”

Li Xiting thought for a while and said.

"It really can't be any cheaper. If it's any cheaper, I'll lose money."

"And I also employ a large number of scientists and engineers, but I still have to rely on them to research more powerful and advanced spacecraft."

"If we can develop a warp-engine spacecraft that can truly travel the universe in the future, we can colonize the interstellar universe!"

"Don't worry, everyone. Once you buy a spacecraft, it will come with all kinds of equipment and instruments for mining asteroids, quantum communications, etc. After you buy it, you can form a professional technical team and go mining asteroids."

"However, we must first go to Mars to build a corresponding mining base. For the time being, asteroids can only go to Mars and cannot fly to Earth. After all, if something goes wrong, it will be the end of us."

Liu Fei shook his head, bargaining was impossible.

This is my unique business, but I'm still bargaining with you. There's something wrong with my brain.

What's more, this is a business that can obviously make huge profits. Even if you think it's too expensive, there are still many people willing to buy it.

"Ok!"

Everyone nodded after hearing this, and then they all fell into deep thought with frowns on their faces.

Such a huge capital demand is really beyond the ability of one's own to handle, and the risk is also very high. I must find some people to cooperate in this business.

Thinking of this, everyone left quickly.

Each of them should study the matter carefully, find a professional team to evaluate the investment, returns and risks, plan their own funds, find suitable, reliable and capable partners, and so on.

Time is passing slowly.

'Dinger Bell' is getting closer and closer to Mars, and many people are paying attention to this matter.

This day is the day when the 'New Era' asteroid arrives on Mars.

Feiyun Technology also carried out a full-scale live broadcast of this and deployed a large number of equipment and instruments on Mars, which were used for live broadcast as well as to calculate the energy that could be generated by the asteroid hitting Mars and the impact on Mars, etc.

Because it was a very serious event, most TV stations around the world broadcast it live. A large number of live broadcast rooms in the virtual world were packed, and billions of people around the world were paying attention to it.

"Detach!"

On the 'Dinger Bell', as the computer once again calculated the time, angle, and position of the impact between the asteroid and Mars, and confirmed that there was no problem, Dinger Bell decisively broke away from the connection with the asteroid.

"Viewers!"

"Tinker Bell has separated from the New Era asteroid, and an exciting scene will soon begin."

"This is the first man-made asteroid impact on a planet in history!"

"We are very lucky and fortunate to be able to witness history and this great moment!"

"Feiyun Technology has deployed a large number of sensors and monitors on Mars. These instruments will be used to record the energy and impact generated when an asteroid hits Mars. This will help us study the truth and cause of the extinction of dinosaurs."

"Did the dinosaurs become extinct due to the asteroid impact that caused the ecological environment to deteriorate, or did they become extinct due to other reasons? Perhaps through the case of the asteroid impact on Mars, we can draw a scientific conclusion."

Television stations around the world are broadcasting the event live, and many have invited astrophysicists, scientists, experts and professors to the live studio to explain and analyze the relevant steps.

At the same time, in the live broadcast room of the virtual world, there are also many anchors specializing in popular science who are broadcasting live and introducing this matter in detail.

It can be said that although it is just an asteroid mined from the asteroid belt, it has attracted great attention from all over the world.

This represents that human technological development has entered a new era.

It also means that human exploitation of resources can already reach the entire solar system.

This technological advancement is also a historical advancement!
Human power has become strong enough to shake asteroids in interstellar space.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Feiyun Technology also prepared a large number of unmanned spacecraft for this matter to shoot and record from multiple angles.

Fortunately, we have mastered quantum communication technology, so even on Mars we can keep in touch with the Earth in real time and broadcast live.

If we rely on traditional communication technology, live broadcast will not be possible.

"Dear audience friends, the new era asteroid is about to hit Mars, the exciting scene is here!"

"Please don't go away, let us witness history together!"

The hosts from various TV stations shouted excitedly.

"It's about to hit, it's about to hit!"

"Tsk tsk, this is Mars. It is really very different from our Earth."

"That's right. This is the first time we have seen everything on Mars in such high definition. The sun is a strange blue."

"Mars is really too desolate, without a trace of life. The red earth is said to be formed by iron oxide."

"How much do you think will be left after this asteroid hits Mars?"

"Mars is not like Earth. Our Earth's climate will burn and lose a lot of mass, but Mars' atmosphere is thin, so the loss is relatively small."

"I don't know when I can travel to Mars. I heard that Feiyun Technology has a base on Mars. Will the Feiyun Technology base on Mars be destroyed?"

"Feiyun Technology has already considered this. On the other side of Mars from the impact point, there won't be any impact at all. Don't worry about it."

Under the watchful eyes of the public and discussed by countless people, the 'New Generation' asteroid rushed towards Mars without hesitation and crashed directly into the predetermined location.
