Originally, Zhang Xiaoman planned to return directly to the original world.

The discussion he had with Lin Sisi today inspired him a lot, and he seemed to have a clue about how to improve the Spiritual Violence Technique. He was going to take this opportunity to think about it again.

But now, some of the plans that Richard introduced to him aroused a lot of interest in him, so he simply didn't go back and listened carefully to the other party's plan here.

On the side, Sun Mingsheng still had projects to do, so he left the conference room first, leaving only Zhang Xiaoman and Richard.

One of them was explaining eloquently, and the other was listening carefully and carefully. Time flew by unknowingly, and it was dark in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Richard provided Zhang Xiaoman with a long list of preparations for space development from a professional perspective.

Among them, some essential project equipment and personnel were involved, and even about the approximate funds. Richard explained a series of things very thoroughly.

Zhang Xiaoman had an idea and also considered the funding issue. The money was not too much and he could still come up with it for now.

Later, Richard also analyzed the income issues, and the conclusion he reached was undoubtedly gratifying.

Whether it is helium 3 or titanium, both are very scarce on Aquamarine, especially helium 3. This kind of thing is simply the rarest of scarcities.

Its specific function can be summarized in three words: nuclear fusion.

To sum it up in one sentence, it is a clean energy source that can be used to generate electricity for nuclear power plants.

Generally speaking, helium 3 is produced by beta decay of tritium nuclei. There are very few tritium nuclei themselves, and the cost of purification is high. Therefore, the total helium 3 in the world probably does not exceed 500 kilograms.

On the contrary, on the moon, because there is no atmosphere, helium-3 elements can depart from the sun, then take the solar wind shuttle, directly to the lunar surface, and be evenly distributed in the lunar soil.

The current human estimate of the total amount of helium 3 on the moon is almost 700,000 tons.

This number is a bit exaggerated. Even if Zhang Xiaoman does nothing in the future, as long as he keeps transporting soil back from the moon, he will be able to make a lot of money by then.

Judging from the current market, one pound of helium 3 is about 640,000 yuan, which means one gram is equivalent to about 9,200 Chinese coins.

However, if you need to sell in large quantities, you still need to think more about the source of external generation.

If the space development program can be successfully carried out, then money will no longer be an issue for the Covenant in the future.

After having money, Zhang Xiaoman's other plans can be carried out smoothly, and scientific research funding will no longer be an obstacle.

Whether it is biology or technology, I believe that as long as a lot of money is thrown in, the progress will be doubled.

Once something is harvested, he can take advantage of the situation to improve the overall strength of the Star Alliance, and he can also share some of the results to increase the foundation of mankind and use it to survive the next catastrophe.

Zhang Xiaoman never expects to take care of everything by himself, nor will he let the Star Alliance handle everything. In the final analysis, what is needed to fight against the great fusion is unity.

Before, it was because his strength and resources did not allow it.

Now, after overcoming the initial difficulties, he will gradually share some of the things he has mastered.

The exchange between the two lasted for a long time and did not end until about eight o'clock in the evening.

Raising his hand and looking at his watch, Zhang Xiaoman thought about it. He had promised to wake Lin Sisi up for dinner. He had forgotten about it just now because he was so absorbed in listening to what Richard said.

But it's almost midnight on Rebirth Island now, and the little girl must have fallen asleep this time. I'm afraid it's a bit late to go there now.

He thought about it and decided to go over and take a look later. Given that girl's temperament, she might still be waiting for him.

Outside, Xiaoya saw the two people coming out of the conference room and immediately walked over here. It seemed that she had stayed here to wait.

Although Richard couldn't wait to say that he would fly back to China soon, it was already very late now, so he couldn't rush it.

Zhang Xiaoman asked Xiaoya to arrange his food and accommodation. If there were any problems, he would wait until tomorrow. He himself went to the toilet first, planning to activate his skills to leave.

Before leaving, Zhang Xiaoman passed by the laboratory and found that Sun Mingsheng and others were still in the company and had not returned, so he went in to check the situation.

Those people all knew Zhang Xiaoman. When they saw the boss coming, they all stopped what they were doing and greeted him.

Sun Mingsheng came over.

"Boss, how can I help?"

Zhang Xiaoman waved his hand and asked curiously: "Old Sun, it's so late and you haven't left yet?"

"Hey, this is not a technical difficulty that has just been solved recently. Now everyone is striking while the iron is hot these days, working hard to master the first technology."

"Oh? How far have you reached now?"

"At present, we have successfully opened the outer shell of the watch and are distinguishing the internal structure. According to the plan, the first target point is holographic projection..."

Sun Mingsheng took this opportunity to report on his recent scientific research progress.

"Actually, to be honest, boss, there are many aspects of this technology that we are not yet able to understand. Whether it is software or hardware, there are many difficulties. Moreover, the current equipment in the laboratory still has some flaws. If possible, If so, see if you can..."

Zhang Xiaoman saw his expression and knew that he wanted more funds.

But there is nothing he can do now.

The Star Alliance is now entirely supported by the building materials company in charge of the good guy in the United States, as well as the capital injected by the resurgent Xuejing Group, and the investment from the wealthy second-generation families in the Danlan Ministry.

It is enough for normal development and maintenance of operations, but if you want to engage in scientific research, it may be a bit beyond your capabilities.

But fortunately, the space program over there is about to start, and I won't need to bother building any fully automated mining factory by then.

You only need to send satellite satellites to sweep the floor on the moon to obtain a large amount of precious lunar soil.

At that time, the building materials companies in the United States will be directly transformed into high-tech materials research and development companies, and the step of establishing a new company will be omitted.

Although he said that, it was not appropriate for Zhang Xiaoman to tell Sun Mingsheng that he had no money yet. He could only deceive the other party first, otherwise it would be too demoralizing.

"Well, I understand your needs. Currently, your exclusive laboratory is being built at the headquarters. When the time comes, I will arrange an experimental base with the world's top configuration for you. Don't worry."

As he spoke, he looked at the other party with a half-smile, and continued: "Old Sun, your team is working so hard every day. It seems that I am going to give you a salary increase."
