With the availability of neutrino detection equipment, it is more convenient to search for mineral deposits, and you can find them accurately. In other words, the energy required to mine mineral deposits is much less than that of synthetic raw materials.
As far as the current situation is concerned, except for the extremely rare elements, everything else is obtained through mining, especially now.
The second batch of space planes departing from the earth are equipped with neutrino detection equipment. Their important task is to detect the resources and mineral deposits in the surrounding stars of the solar system. The next time there are mineral deposits in the surrounding stars, Mining equipment is ready.
When Fan Xiaoming heard what Su Zhe said, he was very curious and quickly called up the relevant data. After seeing the data, Fan Xiaoming was very surprised.
"This...this gold reserve is too much! This humble mine actually has so much gold. This is so scary. I can't believe it! I really can't believe it!"
The relevant data was not only seen by Fan Xiaoming, but also by Su Zhe and Zuo Dajun. Su Zhe knew it in advance, so there was nothing surprising. Zuo Dajun was different. After seeing these data, he was extremely surprised.
"No! There is so much gold, and the reserves are too much. Okay! It's enough for us to squander for a while, but having said that, we don't need to care about this gold now. After all, we can all fly interstellar. In other It is very easy to mine some gold in the star system. If you include artificially synthesized gold, then we can get as much as we want."
There is a lot of gold, but this is not the past. When you see tens of millions of tons of gold reserves, you can jump. For now, if there are resources and energy, then there will be as much gold as you want.
But it was surprising to see so many gold reserves.
Su Zhe smiled and said: "Yes! When we can mine the surrounding star systems, there will be no restrictions on us in terms of raw materials. It can be said that we have achieved resource freedom, at least for a long time. It’s like this inside.”
As it stands now, it is no longer difficult to exploit resources in the star systems surrounding the solar system.
This is also the reason why resources are free.
With that said, Su Zhe and the others ran to the bottom of the gold mine. The bottom of the mine was full of gold of varying sizes.
Zuo Dajun picked up a piece of gold nugget the size of a human head from the ground, and said with a smile: "This is too much gold. Let's put it over. How much is the piece of gold nugget in my hand worth? It's now. Look at gold. It’s not that heavy anymore.”
With that said, Zuo Dajun dropped the gold in his hand on the ground.
At this time, a humanoid bionic robot ran over and shouted to Su Zhe and the others, saying that the Su Zhe and the others had delayed their mining of gold.
But soon, the man recognized Su Zhe and the others, and his attitude became much better, but he still asked Su Zhe and the others to get up from the bottom of the mine quickly, saying that they were in urgent need of gold now and could not delay other things because of gold.
Su Zhe and the other three were also very sensible and immediately flew up from the bottom of the mine.
As soon as the three of them left the bottom of the mine, they saw the engineering mecha that was dozens of meters high moving.
This engineering mecha was humanoid, so it started digging at the bottom of the mine.
Sand and gravel filled with gold of different sizes were flying all over the sky.
Seeing this scene, Zuo Dajun said with emotion: "Well, the engineering mecha we originally designed was not used to dig holes, but these people are so good that they directly ask the engineering mecha to dig holes, let alone digging holes. The efficiency is still very fast. It took only a short time to dig such a big hole. Hey! Another big golden nugget was dug out."
In just a short time, the engineering mecha dug out a large pit, with a huge golden nugget in the center of the pit.
He estimated that the volume of the dug out golden knot was three cubic meters.
After a while, the golden nugget was completely dug out. Its volume was ten cubic meters. If it were on the earth, the golden nugget would weigh almost two hundred tons.
This golden knot was irregular, and the engineering mecha was also very powerful. It directly moved the golden knot from the bottom of the mine and placed it directly on a large mine car.

, Fan Xiaoming sighed: "Nearly two hundred tons of gold. In the past, it would have been a huge wealth. As for now, it is just raw materials."
Zuo Dajun said with a smile: "After a while, when the amount of gold is no longer tight, I will use gold to build me an aerospace plane. It will definitely be very popular to drive such an aerospace plane."
Su Zhe smiled and said: "Using gold to build an aerospace plane, don't you think you will die quickly enough? Or maybe you just want to die."
Fan Xiaoming nodded and said: "The idea of using gold to build an aerospace plane is what your army can think of. It seems that an aerospace plane made of gold can still work, but it will definitely fall apart if it flies."
Zuo Dajun smiled awkwardly and said, "I just thought about it, if you really want to do this, you'd be a fool."
While the three of them were talking, the engineering mecha dug out another golden nugget about the same size as before from the bottom of the mine.
Fan Xiaoming said with a smile: "There is a lot of gold. Of course, our current consumption of gold is also staggering. To completely solve our shortage of gold, that is our development of surrounding star systems. I believe that the surrounding star systems There will be no shortage of gold in those star systems, and even if there is little, we can still synthesize it at full power."
The development and construction of Mars is in progress, coupled with the supporting facilities for the population increase plan, the manufacturing of SS-defense system equipment, and preparations for the development of surrounding star systems, etc., all of which require a large amount of gold consumption.
As for the source of gold, it is either extracted from nature, or it is synthesized.
As for the star systems surrounding the solar system, even if there is not much gold, it can still be obtained in large quantities through synthesis.
He needs to know that in the solar system, there is still little willingness to synthesize elements on a large scale through synthesis. Not only does it consume a lot of energy, but it may also destroy the balance of the solar system. However, the star systems around the solar system do not have this. worried.
It is possible to synthesize elements using the energy of stars.
If you have to be careful in the solar system, then you don't have to worry too much in the star systems surrounding the solar system.
Just like in order to manufacture SS-defense system equipment, relevant departments have made plans to build a specialized manufacturing factory directly in a star system.
There is more than one such manufacturing plant.
You must know that the SS-defense system covers the entire galaxy and requires a lot of resources and energy to manufacture related equipment.
Zuo Dajun smiled and nodded and said, "Yes! That's it. Whether it's gold or other rare elements, there are energy and resources, and it doesn't matter how much they need to be synthesized. There's no need to worry about these. Of course, the synthesis is still not mined. It’s direct and fast. If you can mine it, don’t synthesize it, which is a waste of energy.”
Su Zhe smiled and said, "That's the truth!"
Then Su Zhe and the others flew away from the gold mine and watched the mining of other minerals on the surface of Mars, including iron ore, aluminum ore, rare metal ores, etc.
To put it simply, Mars is now a large mine, with mines of all sizes everywhere.
You know, the raw materials used in the industrial areas and residential areas being built now come from Mars.
However, the mining of more Mars is not blind. After all, the entire solar system needs to be protected, and the development of Mars is only in its early stages, that is, now. After this period, the resources of the entire solar system will stop being mined, including Mars.
As for the resources needed for the construction of the solar system, they will be mined from the space outside the solar system.
For example, in the Circumsolar System Industrial Zone, its resources are mined from space outside the solar system.
Su Zhe and the others were flying in the low orbit of Mars, looking at the surface of Mars.
Zuo Dajun said with a smile: "The plan can't keep up with the changes! The importance of Mars has dropped again. It can only be said that our development speed is too fast, far beyond our plan. With the current trend, Mars will also rise immediately." With a little effect, once the Industrial Zone around the Solar System is built, this area can be eliminated."
According to the original development plan, it was a step-by-step development, starting around the real Earth, then around Mars, and then the entire solar system.
There is nothing wrong with making this plan, and the thinking is very good. Who would have thought that science and technology are developing too fast, and these plans cannot keep up with the development of science and technology.
If it wasn't necessary, Mars wouldn't need to be developed.
Su Zhe looked at the surface of Mars, then at the industrial areas and residential areas in the orbit of Mars, and said, "It is true that our science and technology are developing too fast, but this is fine. We don't need to develop the solar system on a large scale. After all, we don’t have the ability to change the balance of the solar system yet.”
When it comes to research on the solar system, Yanda is currently the most focused.
Fan Xiaoming nodded and said: "We don't have the ability now, but with the development of science and technology, sooner or later we will be able to. By that day, we will be able to copy the earth and the solar system. By then, we humans will definitely be the only ones in the universe. The existence of an overlord."
Zuo Dajun said excitedly: "I don't know when we will reach that level, but what is certain is that the Milky Way is now open to us, and we must speed up the pace of development. After all, there are still people outside the Milky Way. The universe is waiting for us to develop and build."
Su Zhe smiled and said, "Army! You think so far, but that's all."
Fan Xiaoming said seriously: "It is okay to speed up the pace of development, but we cannot sacrifice stability. We must develop step by step and cannot dig holes for us humans. We must be careful again. As we explore the universe, Maybe we can discover aliens, or be discovered by aliens. Now we must not only consider stable development, but also consider threats from the outside.”
As far as human development is concerned, stability is the most important thing, and we must accelerate the pace of development under the premise of stability.
Zuo Dajun thought for a while and said: "It's strange to say that after so many years, why haven't we discovered the existence of aliens yet? It is impossible to say that there are no aliens in the universe. Since there are As long as we humans exist, there will be aliens in the universe."
In his view, there must be aliens in the universe, but we haven't discovered them yet.
With the development of science and technology, the scope of human activities is getting larger and larger, and it is only a matter of time before aliens are discovered.
Su Zhe nodded and said, "There must be aliens. What I hope is that we discover aliens, not that aliens discover us."
These two methods of discovery are completely different.
When aliens are discovered, it is basically certain that I am strong and they are weak. If aliens discover us, it will be exactly the opposite: I am weak and they are strong.
If it's the latter, then humanity may face the possibility of being wiped out by the group.
Fan Xiaoming said with some worry: "Yes! There must be such aliens in the universe. To be honest, I am really worried about the existence of aliens. If they don't do well, they will be destroyed by the group. Right now, we humans are still very Fragile, as long as you give us a period of time, when we develop in an all-round way, there is no need to worry, at least we will not be destroyed by the group. Of course, we have not discovered aliens yet, but we must always be wary of this, but Don’t be careless, these are aliens, it might be a big war.”
As far as the current situation of mankind is concerned, if aliens discover it and if aliens attack mankind, then mankind will basically be doomed.
We were discovered by aliens, which means that the science and technology mastered by aliens are better than ours.
In this case, the risk of human beings being wiped out is very high.
Su Zhe nodded and said: "Relevant departments have noticed that the issue of aliens was taken into consideration when deploying the SS-defense system. But having said that, whether we humans can develop depends on our luck. Now, if we are discovered by aliens, we humans may be wiped out. But give us a few years, only a hundred years, by then, even if aliens discover us, they will It will be difficult to destroy us. As for now, we are in danger. I hope we humans are lucky enough."
This is the current situation.
Once discovered by aliens, it would be a narrow escape.
There is no way around this. This is the path that human development must take, and it all depends on human luck.
Zuo Dajun thought for a while and said: "That's all I can think of. Again, what we humans lack now is time. As long as we are given a period of time, there will be no possibility of humanity being wiped out by the group, but it is very dangerous now. , but there is no other way, it can only be like this, but don’t worry too much, this is not a too advanced civilization, we humans can still resist, such as the SS-defense system, which is still very powerful.”..net
For now, humanity's most powerful SS-defense system not only has powerful detection capabilities, but its strike capabilities are also very powerful.
Especially when there are cold nuclear fusion devices and proton nuclear fusion devices, energy is not an issue after all.
Just think about it and you will know that under the death ray attack of the SS-defense system, especially when many death rays attack together.
To be honest, few things can withstand such a blow.
