The three brothers Kamil Strauer were all shocked when they saw this string of numbers calculated in grams. They counted for a long time before confirming the final result.
"200 tons of gold is equivalent to 460 billion m coins, my God!"
The youngest Cab Strauer blurted out, somewhat losing his temper on the spot.
"With this funding, the family has hope of revitalizing its business."
Kamil Strauer is accustomed to his father's mantra, and uses the family business as a token in everything.
"If we keep it, if we keep it, it will be our greatest wealth."
After experiencing the separation of life and death, Cajun Stroll acted more calmly, although he was somewhat excited in his heart.
During this operation, Solomon Strauer originally asked him to serve as captain, but he declined politely on the pretext of family misfortune.
In the end, the relatively calm Ka'an had to be appointed as the captain, and Ka Jin was responsible for making suggestions and acting as a military advisor.
As long as the three brothers don't cause any trouble and cooperate with each other to discuss matters, it shouldn't be a problem to complete the first space adventure mission.
What's more, if Mei Lanyin goes together, if something unexpected happens, he will have a better helper.
This was the main source of confidence for the elder to let his son lead the team before departure.
"Brother Cajin, don't worry. Even the seven Earth Star Alliance regimes have not calculated this result. They have made guesses and have not spent huge sums of money to gamble. They have all chosen the most economical and affordable package to implement. This leaves us with at least 8 months of preparation. In half a year, we can use the separated ordinary metals to make rough alloys and build minimum standard base facilities. By reasonably arranging the excavation sequence, we can respond accordingly in accordance with the "General Principles of Earth and Stars" The terms basically cover this sedimentary zone, dispelling the idea of other forces taking a share of the pie."
Ka Mian brought out the reasons that he had already thought of to comfort his cousin.
"Don't even think about drinking the scraps. If you dare to seize the Strauer family's territory, our flying saucer defense weapons are not vegetarian."
Touching the pain in his heart, Kabo's stubbornness came up again.
The shadow of the robbery of the Fzhou gold mine seemed to still have an impact on him.
"Calm down, Cab. If anyone dares to violate the "General Rules of the Earth and Stars" and openly rob, just report it to the Mars Drilling Corps here in time, and make sure they are left with nothing to eat."
Ka Mian quickly used the law as a talisman to fulfill his duties as captain, fearing that this fiery brother would be impulsive and cause trouble.
"Brother Ka Mian, don't worry. I'm not ignorant. I'm just talking about the last resort." Kabo immediately explained.
"That's good. Be polite first and then attack. If the Mars Drilling Corps doesn't care, then we, the Stroll family, are not soft persimmons. They will never come back."
Ka Mian reminded and encouraged at the same time, covering everything.
"How about we hurry up and build another base and occupy a small part of another good place. The harvest will be more." Kabo turned to make a more long-term and ambitious suggestion.
"People's hearts are not as good as snakes. There is a bottom line in everything. Going too far is not enough. It is a great achievement to protect the three-thirds of an acre of land we have now." Ka Jin poured a basin of cold water at the right time.
"Brother Cajin, it's wrong to be greedy, but if we don't fight for opportunities, our elders will laugh at us for being timid."
In response to his cousin's conservative reminder, Ka Mian expressed his approval, but also put forward his own opinion: "Do you think this will work? When the base is built in this area, if there is still time and materials, we might as well suspend the excavation and do our best. Build a base in the second target area, try your best to occupy a little more space, and also make plans for the future.”
"However, we only brought one smelting and molding machine this time, which is not enough."
Kajin raised doubts again: "Moreover, the technical staff to build the base are insufficient and they are not fully equipped."
"My sister-in-law's flying saucer is very convenient to travel to and from. If we recruit more people and bring more equipment then it will be a success."
Ka'an was waiting to continue explaining when she suddenly received a call from Mei Lanyin, urging her to send the exploration summary report to her quickly.
"My sister-in-law asked for a summary sheet. Should I give it or not? Or give it after revision?"
Kafan turned on the hands-free calling mode, delayed the conversation for a while, and then hung up the phone to ask for their opinions.
"Although her heart is mainly towards the Mu family, don't make her lose her temper. My sister-in-law's ability is hard to see through."
Kabo reminded him in a warning manner. He had learned a lot from the island incident and was a little scared to face this young lady.
"My sister-in-law's flying saucer has already been analyzed and concluded. There is not a huge difference between the two. It is best not to do anything, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
Kajin hesitated for a moment and then added: "I wonder what the Grand Elder's instructions were for this question?"
"My father didn't give any hint. He didn't know anything about the situation here. He asked me to make my own decisions and take responsibility for everything."
Ka Mian smiled helplessly: "This is obviously the attitude that it's best if nothing happens. If anything happens, I'll take care of it."
"However, my sister-in-law's voice seems a little anxious. She may also be tempted by the rich mineral deposits here. If I guess it is good, she will definitely have new plans and arrangements, and maybe she will be interested in the second target area. A piece of fat.
That area is even smaller, and the Mars Drilling Corps doesn't have time to take it into consideration, and it's very likely that they will look down upon it. But after all, it contains minerals equivalent to 120 tons of gold. It is one of the best options for mining at present, so in the case of information asymmetry, my sister-in-law is very likely to focus on it.
Don't forget, little cousin Mu Liang still has 3 million earth coins in cash on hand. As long as the construction of two projects and the progress of charity are suspended or delayed, he will have enough ability to purchase an all-in-one machine. "
Ka Jin's words were analyzed so clearly that the two of them suddenly understood the deep meaning.
"Then should this be sent to her?" Ka Mian asked the previous question again.
"We have already put forward our opinions. In the end, you make the decision. We will obey the captain's decision."
The two expressed their opinions one after another and kicked the ball to him.
"Since this is the case, let me send the original text to my sister-in-law."
Ka Mian made the final decision, no longer hesitated, and immediately sent the report to Melaine's ID card mobile phone.
Then, upload the latitude and longitude coordinates of the first target mineral deposit to the public channel and direct the flying saucer to the designated location.
I have to say that three cobblers are as good as Zhuge Liang.
Melanin's thoughts were indeed guessed by the three nephews, and the analyzed situations were generally similar, with little difference.
After receiving the summary report, Mei Lanyin took advantage of the gap when the team was moving equipment, just came out to say hello, and studied it carefully.
The situation was as Kajin had expected. After analyzing the distribution map of the Mars Drilling Corps, the scanning results of his own flying saucer, and the summary table, Melanin finally came to the same conclusion as the three brothers and took a fancy to the piece of land. 2. Rich mineral deposits in the target area. "The three little guys are honest and didn't lie to my sister-in-law, otherwise they would be just as good-looking."
"I gained a lot this time. Fortunately, I came with you. Otherwise, I would have missed this God-given opportunity."
"Well, after I go back this time, I'll have a good discussion with my son. His game project can't make money as fast as here. You can do it here first, and then make up for it after making quick profits. There won't be any delay on both sides. It's alright. It’s a good way to kill two birds with one stone.”
Melaine happily looked at the place he drew a circle while thinking about how to better formulate new investment plans.
Although Mars is small, the day-night cycle is longer than that of Earth, exceeding 24 hours.
Because the gravity is very small, only 1/3 of that of the Earth and the Earth, it is much easier to transport equipment.
Although the 10 spacesuits originally provided by the flying saucer were stored for a long time and there were no problems with the quality inspection, their performance was still excellent and they could supply oxygen for 124 hours in an oxygen-free environment.
The 20 sets of space suits produced by the joint venture between Earth and Star purchased can only provide oxygen for 50 hours. The price is less than half and still very expensive.
16 team members, plus a maintenance robot, used two space transport vehicles to painstakingly unload the two large sets of all-in-one machines.
It was already completely dark, so I had to suspend my work and prepare to rest.
According to the weather forecast, there will be no sandstorms in these two days. There is no need to worry about equipment accidents, let alone theft.
Except for alien life, the place is completely silent, with no signs of biological activity.
Everyone felt very tired. Under Kabo's arrangement, everyone was given their own heated food and the standard 3 kilograms of water per day.
There is a lot of water in the flying saucer, but this is the cost for 20 people for half a year. On average, it is very little per day.
If you want to take a bath, you have to fill up the water slowly.
Using recycled water after urine circulation, it can hold 20 kilograms a month, which is barely enough for a bath.
Bath water can also be recirculated. There will be more water in the second month, and even a lot more after a long time.
The average surface temperature of Mars is above minus 50 degrees, which is very cold. It is not a big problem if you don't take a bath for a long time.
Water is a very valuable thing on Mars, and the team has its own management system.
The excess recycled water produced by an individual can be sold to the employer for emergency storage, while the drinking water can be sold to team members to earn income.
Of course, as long as you save water, you will be rewarded for the extra resources.
After all, everyone has undergone rigorous training and assessment and clearly knows how to survive and work in the Martian environment.
For example, before coming here, almost all men and women had their heads shaved, and their nails, body hair and other unnecessary parts that could hinder hygiene were also cleaned up, making their whole bodies fresh and fresh.
Food and other daily necessities are basically standard equipment and will generally not exceed the limit.
If someone is a big eater, they can only eat dry and tasteless compressed biscuits.
In order to set a good example, the three Kamien brothers were treated equally with everyone else, showing their determination to share weal and woe.
The Martian night is very interesting. Through the thin atmosphere, the team members enjoyed the strange beauty of the alien planet in space for the first time.
There is no bright moonlight here, but the dim shadows of the two satellites of Mars can be seen at different times.
The starry sky of the solar system has become extremely clear, and it is even more fascinating than the season when the earth and stars are most easily observed.
