An Feng knew that its role was much more than that.

Room-temperature superconductivity is currently an "impossible" concept, and the latest technology of superconductivity also needs to be achieved at an ultra-low temperature of minus 70 or 80 degrees Celsius, and scientists are trying to find high-temperature superconductivity (compared to low temperatures, high temperatures are also below zero). And room-temperature superconductivity is the ultimate dream.

Superconductors play many roles, superconducting power generation, transmission and storage, as well as maglev trains, superconducting computers, or controllable nuclear fusion reactions, ferrofluids, electromagnetic pulse bombs...... The demand for superconductors is huge, and the market for it is growing in a straight line, with an estimated $200 billion last year.

But there is one premise: a low temperature environment.

Superconductivity can only be achieved by using liquid nitrogen or stronger catalysts to control the temperature at minus 70 or 80 degrees Celsius, which is too expensive to be popularized. If there is a high-temperature superconductor, or even a conceptual superconductor at room temperature, it will definitely trigger a new revolution in science and technology, affecting the whole world.

With the strong magnetism of superconductors, the magnetic field can confine the plasma of nuclear fusion, making controlled nuclear fusion possible.

There are also ultra-efficient generators and cables, superconducting means no resistance, which means zero loss in the whole transmission process. It is important to know that the long-distance power supply in the current world of the world is about 8%, and the energy is wasted.

Even quantum computers, after the premise of nuclear fusion, artificial intelligence has gradually surfaced, and the key material is a superconductor with a high enough temperature (still sub-zero), and now he is directly given a superconductor at room temperature, which is simply a stroke of God, and the problem is solved.

……

The stones obtained by chance became the biggest harvest of the journey.

The black man couldn't understand its scientific value, but An Feng knew very well that he had a lot of skills in his head that would use superconductors. The strong magnetic field confines controllable nuclear fusion, and the zero resistance makes the energy no longer lost...... It excels in high-current, low-voltage or diamagnetic applications.

In terms of influence, superconductors will even be more extensive than graphene. Room-temperature superconductivity is a distant concept, and now that he has a metallic substance of room-temperature superconductivity in his hands, An Feng only needs to return to the laboratory. Analyzing its composition, there may be a way to imitate it.

Joanna was confused, and she asked, "Wait, is it too hot for it to levitate on the scorching St. Kitts Island?" ”

"The local temperature is maintained above 32 degrees Celsius all year round, and superconductors need to be in a low temperature environment, and room-temperature superconductors also follow the law," An Feng said. I guess superconductivity only occurs at low temperatures, and the black man said it would be at night, and the temperature would probably drop a lot. ”

She still didn't get it. And he said, "Why don't you go there and mine ore as soon as possible?" ”

An Feng smiled: "Room temperature superconductors must be very rare, if they are everywhere, then St. Kitts Island has long been famous in the world, and this may be the only one in the world." Even if there are still ones, the local transportation is inconvenient, the mining is difficult, and it is easy to leak the rumors with great fanfare. ”

"But you've got to get a head start." She said.

"That's right." An Feng nodded, "I'll go back in a few days to discuss the development of the local area." Shun was approached by the black man to inquire about where it came from. ”

……

An Feng and Joanna return to California.

If a private person brings such an unidentified piece of metal on the plane, it is a bit troublesome. Fortunately, Anfeng has a private jet throughout the whole process, eliminating the cumbersome security check. After returning to San Raphael, Joanna continued to be her senior sister in the last semester of her life. It is basically a two-day fishing and three-day drying net.

An Feng left the superconductor behind and set off with his assistant.

The job of the country's prime minister is equivalent to that of the mayor of the United States, and there are many assistants, so the job is easy. I heard that he has the same hobby as Okuguro, and often plays golf.

An Feng first exchanged pleasantries with Sang Qi, and lamented that the prime minister has been busy with official business recently, and he has tanned a lot of golf for the people...... Then get to the point. An Feng wants to invest in the southern area as a private resort for ocean shipping. Exclusive to the company's brand.

Sanchi read Jim's plan, put it away, and said, "There were people in that area who wanted to invest before, but there was no agreement. ”

An Feng understood very well: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, I will definitely give a suitable price." ”

"Sir, we will definitely give you the greatest convenience this time." Sanchi said with a smile.

An Feng also smiled, is it convenient for the dollar?

But this kind of straightforwardness is the easiest, and after the discussion, he and Sanchi will go to the local area again. After specific measurements, the beach facing the Atlantic Ocean is 800 meters long, the sand quality is average, but the natural and unpolluted water is very clear, the surrounding land is flat, and the sea is on both sides of the left and right hands.

According to the operation model of a luxury resort, the locally built shops are linked to the company, and some employees can be sent to the area. In addition, there are many types of entertainment projects such as ziplining, shallow sea snorkeling, motorboat playing, and seaside surfing.

In addition to the Sapphire, future cruise ships can choose the route here, don't worry about repeating, the Eastern Caribbean is the most popular route, dozens of cruise ships are running here, and I haven't seen anyone say that they are bored, except that the distance is not dominant, but you can speed up the voyage to make up for it.

After Jim recorded the plan, An Feng did the second thing.

"Looking for someone?" Sanchi asked.

"Yes, I've met him a few times at the resort and he used to sell me something, who was going to prepare a birthday present for a child." An Feng said.

"It's easy, I'll arrange for a guide who is familiar with the local area to help you." Sanchi said.

"Thank you." An Feng said.

……

It is not difficult to find someone in the small island country, after the local guide went to the resort area to inquire, he learned who the guy who mysteriously sold "divine stones" to tourists was, and it only took half a day to find his door in the northern city, and the car stopped and honked and followed.

A black uncle came out of the house.

He looked at An Feng in surprise, although it had been ten days, he still had a very clear impression of the guy who bought the Divine Stone, and it was a pity to think about it now.

The guide turned his head and asked An Feng, "Is it him?" Mr? ”

An Feng nodded: "Yes." ”

The guide smiled and said, "Weber, this gentleman is looking for you, he is the guest of honor of Prime Minister Sanchi, our country's diplomat in China. ”

When Webb heard An Feng's name, he asked with some hesitation, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Say in the house?" An Feng asked.

Webb hurriedly opened the yard fence and invited everyone in.

The house is very simple. As in other local houses, only one ceiling fan in the hall swayed weakly and creaked. Webb invited them to sit down on wooden chairs, and then An Feng said, "Mr. Webb, I want you to know me." ”

Webb nodded.

An Feng said: "I was looking for you, do you want to know if you still have the stone of that day?" ”

Webb looked at An Feng. Didn't answer right away.

An Feng explained: "Here's the thing, my wife found it magical and liked it very much, so I wanted to prepare more for her as gifts." ”

Webb breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and shook his head with a smile: "I said that the Divine Stone is unique, and this is the only one. ”

The guide was very disdainful: "Don't blow it, I inquired just now, and everyone said that you touched a stone as a treasure all day long, and you didn't necessarily make much money." ”

Webb's face turned red. Although the face is dark, you can still see a little.

An Feng took out a Franklin from his wallet and put it on the table: "Then tell me where it was found." ”

Webb looked at the hundred dollars on the table and hesitated.

An Feng put another one: "You only need to report an address." ”

Weber stared at the money, quite moved, but still said: "You give another two hundred, I'll take you!" ”

An Feng looked at him, and Weber's position was also very resolute. An Feng nodded: "It's good, four hundred dollars." Take me to the places where I found them. ”

"Not right now." Webb said after collecting the money.

"For what?" An Feng frowned.

"It's getting dark, and the place needs to climb high mountains, so I don't have a few hours to walk." Webb explained.

"Okay." An Feng said, "Then let's do it, I'll come to you tomorrow morning." ”

Early the next morning, An Feng took a car to find Weber.

The driver followed Webb's instructions. Heading north, on the way he told him about his experience: "I also found out by chance, that day I was working in the mountains, and suddenly it rained heavily, so I ran down the mountain to hide from the rain. I found a rock floating in the rain and brought it home......"

After five or six minutes of driving, come to the place that Weber said.

He pointed to a volcano and said, "The stone should have rolled down from there, and it would take us at least two hours to climb up from here." ”

An Feng looked at it and said, "Lead the way." ”

Webb led the way, with An Feng and the local guide following behind.

It's hot, you'll be sweating after a while, and the tropics are not fond memories except for the sunny beaches. There is no road up the mountain at all, they are all stepped out step by step, and the speed of travel is very slow, and it takes more than two hours to reach the destination.

"This is it." Webb gasped as he looked at the two sweaty guys.

An Feng looked around and found that the ideal was too beautiful. The surrounding area is desolate and barren, with a dormant volcano overhead, and a large pile of yellow mud and gravel under his feet, some of which he found at random, all of which are common stones, and there is no room-temperature superconductor he wants. Later, Webb dug a few pits, but he didn't find anything.

The guide was puzzled and asked, "Sir, do you really need these stones?" ”

An Feng nodded: "I like it." ”

The guide suggested, "Maybe sir, you can hire workers to look around and look around for what meets the requirements, maybe you may not find one." ”

An Feng didn't want to make a noise, because once there were more people, sooner or later someone would know the origin of these strange stones, but if he continued to hide it, he wouldn't get any benefit, and there was no ...... here After some thought, he went to discuss employment with Weber.

In the end, an agreement was reached, a stone of the same size as last time, one for 500 US dollars, the bigger the more valuable, An Feng appointed Webb to buy it, and as long as he did well, he could get additional rewards. For these money-making businesses, Weber promised without any hesitation.

An Feng looked around again, and after not finding it, he went down the mountain and returned.

After going back, he also chatted with Sanchi a little, probing the tone, wanting to know if Lu Dao could develop local minerals, and the other party gave a positive answer after the end. But mining resources is difficult, and there are not many excavation tools in the area, at most some excavators and small agricultural trucks.

An Feng regarded this plan as an idea, and before determining whether there were such superconductors in the local area, he still focused on exploring in small batches, and when the quantity could be determined, he would contract it and put these precious resources into his pocket.
