Chapter 323: A Gang of Evil Profiteers
"That shuttle is made of light titanium alloy from the deepest part of the seabed, and with our current scientific and technological strength, there is no way to mine it!"
Speaking of the materials of the shuttle, Howard couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, although he had already analyzed the materials used by the other party, but the analysis did not mean that he could get it.
According to research, that material is a rare metal that grows in trenches below 10,000 meters below the seabed, and Howard could not have imagined that there would be a country in the world today that could mine ore in such deep trenches.
You must know that under the water pressure below 10,000 meters, even with the most advanced mining equipment, it is impossible to complete that level of underwater operation, even if he can't.
"Alright! So what kind of material are you using now! The Duke stroked his forehead helplessly, the Atlanteans were gifted and could move freely regardless of the huge currents and water pressure at the bottom of the sea, which was unmatched by the land-based people.
What's more, he also got a lot of information from the stupid white sweet mouth of Atlanta, knowing that the metal mineral used to build the shuttle is also a strategic material in Atlantis, and it is impossible for him to get some from the ocean people even if he wants to.
"We spent a lot of time and effort diluting vibranium as a surface coating, which solved the problem of water pressure! But the price of vibranium, you know! Howard spread his hands, if it weren't for such a complicated situation, he wouldn't have wasted a year here.
The price of vibranium in the international market is 10,000 US dollars per gram, and even if the shuttle only uses diluted vibranium as a surface coating, it is at least dozens of kilograms.
"So in fact, the cost of this shuttle can be done in the millions, and the most important thing is that the vibranium price is too expensive?" After listening to Howard and his triumvirate for a long time, the Duke finally found the culprit.
"That's right, vibranium in the international market is already limited, because of our large-scale acquisition this time, it is said that there is a possibility of price increases, if you want to build a second shuttle, 300 million is estimated to be not enough!" Anton. Vanke hurriedly came out to explain.
Even though it has been co-opted by Conrad for more than ten years, the beast McCoy is still a little in Cao Ying's heart, basically in a passive research state, and rarely takes the initiative to do things.
However, in the past ten years, he has not deliberately sabotage, and he can be regarded as a decent employee of a state-owned enterprise!
Heidi. Rama, on the other hand, is a woman who has no intention of Anton. Vanke is fighting for power, so now the laboratory of the Weiting Group is still headed by this Russian woolly bear.
"If I can get a lot of vibranium, can I just turn this thing into a mass-produced one?"
Although the cost of millions of dollars is still a little expensive, it is really negligible compared to the 300 million just now!
Based on the size of Atlantis and the reaction of those seamen, Conrad felt that he could attack it as long as he prepared a few thousand troops.
After all, those seafarers have always been used to being comfortable, and as long as they take control of the entire city by surprise, the armies of those seafarers cruising outside are not at all justified.
Without the supply of the underwater giant city of Atlantis, those sea people can only become lonely ghosts adrift outside, just like the inhabitants of the other six kingdoms.
"It is impossible to mass-produce vibranium, this metal comes from meteorites in the depths of the universe, and it is not produced on the earth at all, if you have the ability to go to outer space to mine vibranium tens of thousands of light-years away, it is better to consider how to take light titanium and steel on the seabed."
Howard was not angry, and there was a lot of vibranium, how did you dream so well?
You must know that even the vibranium used in this shuttle has already swept away all the vibranium in the international market, if it weren't for his face, even if he had money, he would definitely be able to buy it.
"So, I hate dogs!"
The Duke did not answer Howard's question, but instead smiled amiably.
"What the hell are you up to again?" Howard saw the strange expression on Conrad's face and hurriedly asked.
He had been working with Conrad for a long time, and Howard knew that the other party seemed to have unpredictable predictions.
This is also the main reason why Howard's dog temper would even put down his irascible personality and cooperate with Conrad.
As the president of Stark Group, the current director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the chief elder of the Strategic Science Celestial Order, the whole world is almost transparent to Howard, and to put it bluntly, when his power fully bursts out, it may even change the pattern of the world.
So for Howard, there is no person or thing in the whole world that he should fear or worry about.
But in the face of Conrad, who wants to predict the future, Howard still subconsciously feels that the other party is worth befriending.
The more you know, the more you will discover your own shortcomings, and if there is anything in this world that Howard can't see, it will only be an ethereal future.
A person who can predict the future will always be feared and respected.
Glancing at Howard in front of him, Conrad was extremely entangled in his heart.
Do you want to tell the other party about Wakanda?
For the country hidden in the African continent, the Duke did not have the slightest favor.
First of all, he was a very thoroughly racist, and in his mind, the only fate of a completely underdeveloped race was to be a slave.
Come on!
Wakanda dared to sell vibranium for a sky-high price, this is simply taking him as a wronged boss?
Others don't know and think that vibranium is really a rare item, but Conrad clearly remembers that the place in Wakanda can be extravagant enough to use vibranium as an ordinary metal.
It seems that under the entire city of Wakanda is a huge vibranium vein, and I dare not say that there are more, but there are always tens of thousands of tons.
It's just that I don't know how far Wakanda's black technology has developed, if you are as proficient in energy shields and stealth fighters as in the movie, it is estimated that it is really a bit suspenseful if you want to monopolize it.
As for the panther who blows so much, in Conrad's opinion, he can really only be regarded as a scumbag.
is obviously the richest man in Marvel officially promoted, with assets exceeding 7,000 times that of Iron Man, but in the end, he still relies on his claws to fight hand-to-hand, this guy is really funny.
It can only be said that even if you give a chimpanzee an interstellar mothership, they will only play boxing hand-to-hand combat in the end.
No way, this is a racial talent bonus, and it can't be changed by helping him with two more intelligences.
