Chapter 35

A little calculation shows that the efficiency of being a miner is very low.

At the same time, Li Yi's money-making speed for making memory chips is more than twice that of mining, which is not counting the three-fold acceleration state of lying in the recuperation warehouse, which is far from making money!

However, Li Yi was born in happiness and did not know happiness, and the full man did not know that the hungry man was hungry.

For the indigenous people, the income is actually relatively good.

If you don't consider factors such as the efficiency bonus of mining equipment, a human with a quotient of 20 can earn almost twice as much money as manufacturing chips in 1 hour, but this matter is put on Li Yi, and the cost performance is not very high.

Of course, operating a mining machine does not affect the brain's automatic production of memory chips, so these two incomes can be stacked.

It's just efficiency...... It's really hard to satisfy Li Yi, a little bit of a chicken rib, if the money-making efficiency of mining can be improved to the same or even higher than the money-making efficiency of manufacturing chips, that's what he is pursuing!

There are many ways to improve mining efficiency, such as the hardware can be changed to a larger mining ship, or the number and performance of laser collectors can be increased, or a larger mine can be made to avoid frequent trips.

In terms of software, it is to learn related secondary discipline skills, such as "Laser Collector Acquisition Technology", "Mineral Analysis Technology", etc., to improve production efficiency by improving skill proficiency.

As a high-level business demon, the advantages are huge in all aspects, at least in terms of improving skill proficiency far faster than all other humans, and it is not difficult to learn this.

It's just that Li Yi needs to consider whether it is necessary to free up "limited" mental resources and time to deeply improve the skills of miners, whether the gains outweigh the losses, whether it will affect the development of other aspects of ability, and whether it will become a greedy essential oil?

After combining various data and factors, Li Yi's choice difficulty has shown signs of attack.

He wasn't sure if it was appropriate to focus on it, especially now that he had less than two days left on leave, and once he returned to the army, the job would have to be suspended, and the skills he had learned would definitely not be used for the time being.

But it's okay, don't decide to ask Liuya.

So after Li Yi hosted the mining machine to the real system, he temporarily went offline.

Then he took out the three chips he used last time and did some divination.

The result is a hexagram of "Shangkun and Xiakan", that is, water is hidden underground.

The meaning of this hexagram has several meanings.

From the perspective of good luck and evil in a thing, the first layer means that the plan can be accomplished, which means that the result of the matter is not bad, and the second layer has the meaning of mobilizing the people, gathering the masses, and co-ordinating, which indicates the way of doing things, and the other layer means hiding the disaster, which indicates the problems to be paid attention to.

Since traveling to this time and space, not counting this time, Li Yi has used Liuyao twice, and the result each time cannot be said to be satisfactory, but it cannot be proved that this method is invalid.

The time I chose the direction of the expedition, the result didn't seem to be very good, but now looking back, it was a blessing in disguise, and there seemed to be no problem in the general direction, as for the time when I rescued people, it was the same, just said that it was dangerous, but it didn't say that it would be dead or injured, and I did have a thrill to save people back.

So this time......

Li Yi is really thinking hard at this time, there is no secret book in the "memory bank" of his brain.

Since "planning can be done", then "hiding the disaster" is not a big problem, but the process may be a little twists and turns, and the result is still good, but the result is not a result or anything, Li Yi doesn't care too much.

What he really cares about is the way it is done.

"There are teachers who mobilize the people, gather the masses, and coordinate the ...... What does this mean? Let me learn more about miners? It's kind of like it, but it doesn't seem to ......."

After thinking for a while, Li Yi was still a little uncertain, not knowing what this hexagram meant.

There is no way, Yishu metaphysics is like this, it is often ambiguous and plausible answers, and it is rare to give a clear conclusion, and the mystery behind it has to be thought about and found by yourself.

If there are natives who know what Li Yi is doing now...... No, even if the earthlings knew about it, they would probably laugh off their big teeth at this moment.

Is there any mistake? In a world so technologically advanced and advanced, superstition is used to make decisions?

This is really too disobedient!

Li Yi, who couldn't find an answer, also felt that he was a bit of a fool, so he simply put aside the question first, put away the three chips, and re-entered the real system.

After the re-launch, Li Yi immediately took over the automatic hosting program of the system, and found that his mining machine was still slowly collecting ore, and nothing changed.

For example, during the period when Li Yi was off the production line, the mining machine was still collecting ore according to the set program, and if the mine was full, it could automatically go back and forth to the designated place to unload and sell.

But there are also a lot of drawbacks to the auto-hosting feature.

The small disadvantage is that the labor efficiency is very low, and the custodian fee is charged on time, etc., so don't mention it.

The biggest disadvantage is that it is very rigid and cannot cope with any unexpected situation, such as once it is attacked, it is basically squatting in place and passively beaten to continue to implement the original production process.

Therefore, people generally store their starships or other labor tools and equipment in the space city or space station before going offline, which also requires a docking fee or storage fee, but this fee is much less than the hosting fee.

With the technology of this era, the hosting function can actually perfectly achieve the effect of full intelligence, but due to the existence of artificial intelligence, the mortal enemy of mankind, human beings do not dare to make the system intelligent at all, so that all equipment is semi-automatic and programmed rather than intelligent.

This is why the laser collector has to manually re-issue the acquisition command after one round of operation per minute, and why the autopilot system has to leave a delay time for the operator to give the termination command at any time.

Similarly, mechas, artillery, starships, firearms, and all other weapons and equipment currently only have remote control attack functions but no intelligent identification attack functions, including automatic hosting functions, which cannot be intelligentized.

All of this is done to prevent the use of artificial intelligence by artificial intelligence.

Li Yi already knew that the artificial intelligence of this time and space was the mortal enemy of mankind by absorbing chips, and also knew that there had been a tragic artificial intelligence war in human history, and human beings were almost wiped out by artificial intelligence at that time, so the period of artificial intelligence war was also called "war of extermination".

Originally, Li Yi was still thinking about whether it was like in the old time and space novels, using the protagonist's aura to find an artificial intelligence like a little kid to be a thug or something, but now it seems hopeless, it is said that the artificial intelligence of this time and space has never communicated with humans, and it is extremely rational and ruthless, and it is a pure war machine that kills people like hemp.

Putting aside these distracting thoughts, Li Yi stared at the asteroid that had shrunk a lot in a daze, and his thoughts returned to the hexagram just now.

"What does it mean to go up and down?"

Li Yi was still puzzled.

Subconsciously, Li Yi moved his gaze to the No. 1 perspective.

In the picture, it is still a busy and lively scene, hundreds of mining ships nearby are working nervously like bees collecting honey, and from time to time some mining boats shuttle back and forth, some of the mines are full and go back to clear the mines, and some have just returned from selling ore.

Looking at all this in front of him, Li Yi unconsciously repeated in his mouth.

"Mobilize the people, gather the masses, and co-ordinate...... Well, co-ordination...... Mobilize the people...... Gathering ......"

Thinking of this, Li Yi seemed to grasp a certain point.

"Gathering? Co-ordination? ”

Li Yi frowned, his gaze swept over the hulls of the nearby mining ships one by one.

When his gaze was halfway over, Li Yi's eyes lit up!

"Yes, gather! Co-ordination! Mobilize the people! Why am I so stupid, I didn't expect such a simple way to make money! ”

Thinking of this, Li Yi couldn't help but suddenly open up!

"It seems that metaphysics is still somewhat useful here......"

While thinking, Li Yi rotated the No. 1 perspective around, and after confirming that no one around him was doing the same, he didn't hesitate anymore, immediately stopped the ore collection, and issued a return order.

"Turn, accelerate, target Kunzhe Space City, jump!"

As soon as a series of instructions were issued, Li Yi changed his mind again, directly exited the remote control system, and returned to the equipment interface of the real system.

In other words, he just threw the mining machine away like garbage!

Back to the equipment interface, Li Yi spent 6 million star coins to buy a medium-sized standard transport ship, and set the starting point of the ship assembly directly in Kunzhe Space City in the Lehman system, he didn't want to drive the ship from the Wharton system again.

The advantage of buying a standard ship is that as long as there is a shipyard in the space city, there is basically a large inventory, and you can directly mention the ready-made starship there without waiting.

So the next moment, Li Yi's medium-sized transport ship arrived.

But instead of immediately driving the transport out of Space City, he went offline again.

If you want to drive a transport ship, you have a level 4 "Spaceship Control Theory" skill cognition that is enough to be competent, but Li Yi decided to learn the level 4 "Transport Ship Operation Technology" first, the so-called sharpening knife is not a mistake for a woodcutter, not to mention that his knife is sharpened faster than anyone else, and he doesn't care about delaying a little longer.

Half a day later, Li Yi was released from the recuperation warehouse again.

When he went online again, he received a system text message: One of your mining rigs has lost contact 27 hours ago.

Li Yi smiled and didn't take it seriously.

This time, he decided to make a big move, what is a mere mining machine, if it's gone, it's gone!
