The person in charge of summoning them to the service field was Colonel Edmund, middle-aged, looking a little serious, unsmiling, and a descendant of Shang Ta, the supreme commander of Baiji Star. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Edmund is eighty years old this year, and he is only middle-aged in the new century, but Edmund himself knows in his heart that it will be difficult to rise further. Even if the base expands and develops better in the future, he may not be able to rush up.

There is a saying internally that if you haven't been able to rush up after the age of eighty, you basically have no chance. What's more, Edmund has no background, and if he hadn't followed Shangta, he wouldn't even have the status he has today.

Knowing that he was old enough to climb up, Edmund thought that after this year, he would change jobs, and like many of his comrades-in-arms, he would return to his hometown and spend the rest of his life in local agencies, and maybe there would be a chance to go up at that time.

Edmund's thoughts, Shang Ta also knew, knowing that this capable subordinate was leaving, Shang Ta also gave him this opportunity, showing his face in front of the camera more, maybe it would be good for him to change jobs in the future.

Therefore, Edmund values this opportunity very much, even if he looked down on those little stars before, but when facing Fang Zhao and Lin Kaiwen, it is rare to have some smiles on his serious face, and the pressure brought to people is much less.

A convoy departed from the base, and in a car in the middle of the convoy, Edmund explained the mining area to Fang Zhao and Kevin Lin.

"There are three existing mining areas, two basic mining areas, and one energy mining area, the mines produced in the basic mining areas are mainly used for construction, and the mines produced in the energy mining areas are used for energy supply. The basic mining area is completed by an automated freight system, which does not require many people. However, not every construction site can use automatic freight systems, energy mining areas will not work, instruments will be interfered with, excavation machinery may cause huge losses, so generally there is no way to use machinery and equipment in mining areas, it has to be mined by manpower, and the service is generally this type. We're going to the energy mining area right now. ”

In front of the camera, Edmund didn't look nervous, but Fang Zhao felt that Edmund wasn't nervous, but he just didn't show it. Edmund's thoughts, Fang Zhao can also guess some, the old man and the old lady have told him about some things in the army, plus Fang Zhao's experience, it is not difficult to guess Edmund's thoughts.

This is also the reason why Fang Zhao is willing to cooperate with them to perform this play, to give Edmund more opportunities to perform, so that the value of Bai Ji Xing's mineral deposits will be known to more people, and attract more investors to come over to share the pressure.

Edmund told them that on the side of the base mine, a fleet of minecarts could transport thousands of tons of ore raw materials in one trip, which were used to build the base.

A trip that can transport thousands of tons of raw materials sounds like a lot, but compared with those bases with a lot of military expenditure, manpower and materials are sufficient, it is simply pitiful, not enough at all, and the minecarts dispatched by those bases every day are recorded in 10,000 tons.

The volume of transportation is small, the manpower cannot keep up, and the expansion of the base and the outposts scattered throughout the area is becoming more and more slow.

The road the convoy traveled was the usual one, and did not encounter other aggressive creatures, and the journey was smooth, and after about forty minutes, they reached the energy mine.

The mine is guarded by garrisons to protect the security here.

Kevin Lin turned on the camera again, and wanted to control the camera to fly up and give a comprehensive shot of the mining area from the air, but was prevented, saying that the layout of the mining area was a military secret, so he only filmed the surrounding situation.

Edmund led them into a mine, where today's mining work had already begun, and Fang Zhao could hear the sound of tinkling and popping from inside, and two mechanical conveyor belts were transporting the stones inside, one to transport waste rock, and the other to transport energy mines.

Edmund casually picked up a rough stone from the conveyor belt and handed it to Fang Zhao and Kevin Lin. The dark brown stone body is wrapped in a stone with high transparency.

"Grade A rich ore, strictly speaking, is considered A-grade." In ore classification, grade A is also divided into three grades, A+ grade, ordinary grade A, and A- grade. For an energy stone of the same size, A+ grade energy stone provides more energy than A- grade energy stone.

However, to be able to reach Grade A, this type of energy ore is already very good. The reason why Baiji Star was able to establish a base was not only because it had life and could live people, but also because of its own mineral deposits. Solar energy alone cannot sustain the huge energy demand for the development of the base, and the most important thing is the energy mine. Baijixing A-level energy mine, and the preliminary survey, the content is quite a lot, enough to maintain the development of the base and subsequent expansion.

"It's a pity," sighed Edmund, "I was so careless when I dug it that it broke." The grade of ore of this size will definitely be reduced, but these boys have only been mining for half a year, and it is not bad to be able to maintain such a level. ”

Edmund will say good things about some young people who are serving in the live broadcast, and there are many viewers who watch the live broadcast, and if you criticize too much in front of these viewers, you will be annoyed.

A whole piece of energy stone is definitely better than an energy stone broken into several small pieces, and the commercial value alone will be higher. However, if the miners are inexperienced, or they are distracted and not focused enough during mining, they may cut off a large piece of energy ore and dig it into several pieces, resulting in a reduction in ore grade, which is what many people call ore dilution.

If the service system is still two-year, maybe this phenomenon will be better, a year of mining experience has just been accumulated, you have to retire, and then replace it with a new person, the phenomenon of ore dilution can become better.

"Ore dilution is unavoidable, even if it can be mined by machine." Edmund was telling the truth, but it was also a bit of a justification for young men who had little experience in the service. He knew that many of the people watching online must be parents, and they would never want to hear bad things about their children from the officers of the base.

Edmund can mix to today's height, and his emotional intelligence will not be too bad, even if he can't make the audience like him, he will make fewer people hate him.

"Mining is a technical job, and unless it's some veteran miners with many years of experience, no one can avoid it."

As Edmund spoke, a man in overalls and armed to the head ran out of the mine. Take off your helmet, revealing a youthful face.

"You're here!" With excitement on the young man's face, his eyes turned to Fang Zhao and Kevin Lin next to Edmund, and then swept the camera floating in the air, his smile was two points more, his demeanor was much more restrained, and he raised his hand to brush the hair that had been pressed by the helmet to make the hairstyle look better.

Edmund knew a lot about the other party's careful thinking, and didn't say anything, and turned to Fang Zhao to introduce, "Haydn, who came here in October last year, is the captain of this mining team. After speaking, he looked at Haydn again, raised his hand and pointed at Fang Zhao, "This is ......."

"I know, I know, Fang Zhao, look up for a long time! I love your style! ”

Haydn wanted to say a few more words, but when he caught a glimpse of Edmund's eyes, he swallowed all the remaining words back, and reluctantly put on his helmet again, "I'll take you into the mine?" ”

The two soldiers brought over two sets of work clothes for service personnel and helped Fang Zhao and Lin Kaiwen put them on.

"Let's go inside." Edmund raised his chin at Haydn and motioned for him to lead the way, his eyes briefly intertwining with Haydn's.

"Hey, okay!" Haydn said happily. Looking through the transparent mask, he handed Edmund a "rest assured" look. He has arranged everything, and there will be absolutely no embarrassing situations.

Edmund's heart was at ease. Haydn's ability is still there, and among the miners in this team, Haydn has the best evaluation and has experience in mining, otherwise he would not have become the captain of this team.

The cave is lit and does not look dim, and as you continue to walk inside, you can see some service members using tools to mine.

Seeing that Fang Zhao was playing the live broadcast prompt light, he hurriedly posed, competed to say hello, and tried his best to let his voice appear in the live broadcast, or show his face, although the mask covered half of his face, but maybe his family and friends could match the number by looking at their eyes and listening to their voices?

Haydn brought Fang Zhao to a halt, where there was a box containing tools, mostly pickaxe-like tools.

Haydn picked one out of it and handed it to Fang Zhao, "Try it first?" ”

Fang Zhao took the tools, and when he started, he found that these excavation tools were not as simple as they looked, and they also contained some sophisticated power devices, and the materials were also specially made. This is not a tool specially prepared for Fang Zhao, the servants in the mining area use this type, they don't need to use a lot of force to chisel a stone from the hard stone wall.

However, if you want to dig out better-grade ore and reduce the number of digging breaks, you still have to accumulate experience.

"There are a lot of ores in our mining area, so you don't need to pick a place, just dig here." Haydn pointed to somewhere in the cave wall, seemingly casually.

Kevin Lin, who was standing next to him, thought it was funny. With such a clumsy method, even he can't deceive him, how can he deceive those shrewd businessmen?

Bai Jixing's leadership wants to attract more investors, which is to let Fang Zhao be a nursery.

Then tell the audience: Look, this little star, the first time to mine, choose a place at will, dig out the ore with a pickaxe, we have a lot of ore here, although the ore level is not particularly high, but it is better than the quantity! Interested investors should come now!

Lin Kaiwen held back a smile and asked Fang Zhao, who was looking at the cave wall, "How do you feel?" ”

"Feelings? It feels like there's something behind this. Fang Zhao said.

Edmund raised his eyebrows, a smile on his face. There's something right! Dig quickly, so that the online audience knows how dense the ore distribution of Baiji Star Mine Cave is!

Kevin Lin gestured to Fang Zhao, indicating that the angle of the camera had been adjusted and he was ready to excavate.

Fang Zhao flicked the power pickaxe in his hand and swung it towards the cave wall.

Boom –

A piece of the cave wall was pried loose, and Fang summoned the handle, and the piece that was pryed loose fell. The force is still a little bigger, and the stone that was pried off is relatively large.

Haydn looked at the knocked stone, and the smile on his face became reluctant. Obviously a very optimistic land of rich ore, he also found a few experienced old miners in the base to see, how can there be so many sporadic energy stones in the stones knocked down?

However, the most attention-grabbing thing is not the stone that falls on the ground, but the creatures that appear on the stone wall as the stone falls.

A bug that lives in the ore vein area, two palms are the size of a slap, and the bugs that can move in this kind of place look hideous, and the kind of insect in front of him is even more vicious. But those who are familiar with this mining area know that this kind of insect looks scary and has strong defense, but it is actually very stupid.

With a wooden face, Colonel Edmund said to one of the soldiers beside him, "Drag it out, roast it." ”

Haydn shuddered, he always felt like he was talking about him when he heard this, after all, he was not doing well, and hurriedly handed Edmund a "don't be impatient" look, this time the luck was too bad, the next place will definitely be dug up, he picked several places to spare.
