After Li Yi sorted out a large number of documents, he first picked up the wooden box, saying that it was wood, but in fact it was heavier than steel, and after so many years, it was like new, and the buckle made of brass did not even have a trace of rust.

Wood is usually the more expensive and heavier, like what golden silk nanmu, yellow rosewood, boxwood, all of which are very heavy existences, and the material used in this wood box is obviously not produced in the earth, and the hardness and corrosion resistance are also stronger.

Syllable~

There was no lock on the wooden box, Li Yi pointed his finger at Lu, opened the lock, opened the box, and saw that there was a large star map inside, with three hundred and three star fields of the human race plus four major uninhabited areas, all of which were listed.

In addition to being comprehensive, the star map has many annotations, written in the most standard royal font, the penmanship is very neat, and it is well cultivated at a glance, unlike Li Yi, and the words written are very similar to flies.

Obviously, it is not written in the same era, but written again and again in the long history, in addition to the position mark of each point, there is also a mark that Li Yi does not understand, which seems to be a kind of coded code.

"What do you mean?" Li Yi frowned slightly, rolled up the huge star map, retracted it into the box, lit a cigarette, and began to look at the files.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is already the next morning, Li Yi put on a coat and stands on his balcony to watch the sun rise.

Soon, Cola contacted Li Yi through the communication terminal, "Master, I compared the electronic star map, studied all the position signs, and found that there is not even a habitable planet, all of them are barren land, some are close to black holes, some are too close to stars, the temperature is so high that it can melt metal, and some are too far away." It is a perennial frozen state. ”

Li Yi thought for a moment and asked, "All of them are planets with very harsh climatic conditions?" ”

"That's right, there are too many such planets in the universe, and no one has always cared about them, after all, intelligent life is looking for bonanza planets, or habitable life planets, if it is normal. I can't understand that I scanned the planet and realized that the planet was of little value and would leave immediately, but Ayanami Yuki's father was interested in these barren lands. ”

Li Yi smiled: "You don't understand because you haven't seen more information, I have checked most of the notes, it turns out that Ayaba Xue's father believes that there is a civilization in history that is earlier than the Ten Emperors, maybe human, maybe not human." ”

So he didn't choose a planet based on whether it was suitable for survival. Rather, it is based on whether there is processed nuclear waste, and the huge number of detection systems on the compass is to detect nuclear waste. ”

Coke was stunned and said in surprise: "Prehistoric civilization!? ”

Li Yidao: "Yes, it is a prehistoric civilization, each family chooses to fight the darkness in a different way, and those guys from the Hydra Clan suspect that the Three Kings are still there and want to find them out." Destroying the dark civilization, Ayanami Yuki's father searches for a prehistoric civilization. Hoping to gain a higher level of technology to fight against the darkness, the exorcists want to kill the dark spirit's lair directly. ”

"Speaking of this, I suddenly thought of one thing, the huge star gate established by Cold Spring in the cosmic chasm directly allowed the fleet to cross the distance of hundreds of star fields, which was obviously a manifestation of super civilization, and the fact that the fleet was intercepted in the process of jumping. It's incredible to think about, how exactly did he do it? ”

Cola was surprised: "What does the master mean, maybe the Dark Ghost has mastered a higher level of prehistoric civilization?" So they can have the absolute upper hand in the face of the human race today? ”

Li Yi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Everything is just speculation before there is no evidence. If, according to the theory of technological evolution, human beings smoothly transition out of technology, there should not be such a big fault. ”

"Take the jump engine as an example, in fact, the stargate is also a fixed version of the jump engine, the technical characteristics are the same, the gap between the jump engine and the super stargate that can cross hundreds of star fields at one time is too big! It's like the product of two different civilizations, don't you think? ”

Cola nodded: "It's true that the gap is too big, just like the distance between a bow and a laser weapon, if according to the smooth transition theory, the bow and arrow are followed by firearms, smoothbore guns, rifles, automatic rifles, electromagnetic weapons, and the last will be the transition to laser weapons, and the current situation is like a primitive person with a bow and arrow, and suddenly encounters an alien with a laser gun." ”

"That's what it means!" Li Yi said in a deep voice: "I'm going to continue reading the rest of the information, I have a meeting with Ricardo in the morning, and in the afternoon we will leave to attend a mining exhibition." ”

……

Swish~

Two days later, Bristol Starfield, Pest.

The battleships of Uranus and Ye Fan were anchored at the airport, and Li Yi and Ye Fan came to the outskirts of Perth, the largest city on the planet, at the site of the Planetary Mining Alliance's annual trading conference.

After exchanging two core member admission passes at the reception, the two walked into the open-air market.

Ye Fan said excitedly: "In fact, this exhibition does not prevent enterprises or individuals other than core members from participating, but without core member certificates, there is no way to contact the real high-level." ”

"Those state-of-the-art techniques and the highest grade ores are done in the inner circle, and of course, there are mine auctions."

Li Yi thought for a while and asked, "Can you still buy a mining area here?" ”

Ye Fan nodded and said: "Of course, but to be precise, what you buy is the mining time, after all, the higher the grade of ore, the more difficult it is to mine, take our family's Lorraine mining area as an example, with the strength of our family business, even if we continue to mine for a thousand years, we can't finish mining." ”

"So I'm going to sell 10 five-year mining licenses this time, so that those who get them can have five years to mine in our mining area, and we can use the cash to expand the mining team."

Li Yi smiled: "Brother, you still don't want to sell these ten mining licenses." ”

"For what? Our family is short of cash now, I heard that this time the Planetary Mining Alliance has produced a super mining mothership, we need this new type of super mining ship," Ye Fan asked puzzled.

Li Yidao: "That's right, my company has produced a new type of mining laser, which has a high mining efficiency, and when you leave, I will give you some new collectors to bring back, and your mining efficiency will naturally increase." ”

Ye Fan was stunned and surprised: "Laser-type collector? What is the efficiency ratio? ”

Li Yidao: "It's about 100 times more efficient than the mining in the past." ”

"A hundredfold!" Ye Fan almost didn't jump. Grabbed Li Yi's shoulders and said, "Do you know what the concept is!?" Laser acquisition is not only an increase in efficiency, but also a significant reduction in the use of miners, and this technique is simply like the legend! No matter which mining group it is, it will buy it at any cost! How the hell did you get this technique!? ”

Li Yi frowned, it was really troublesome to explain the origin of the laser-type mining collector, this thing was the same as the soul transfer technique. From the Dark Spirits.

"By chance, I did have the idea of bringing this laser collector to the market this time, I didn't plan to sell the collector directly, after all, selling the mine is a longer-term plan, but unfortunately I need a lot of money at the moment, so I have to sell my skills." Li Yi shrugged his shoulders and said.

Ye Fan said: "Indeed, the mining business can be said to be a huge profit, as long as you can greatly reduce the cost." Others can't compete with you, and if you sell the collector, it will cause the price of the ore to plummet, and the profit will not be as high as selling the ore in the long run. ”

"I don't know how much money you're needing? Maybe I can help you think of a way, it's a pity to sell mining collectors directly. ”

Li Yi smiled: "It's about a few trillions." ”

Swish~

Ye Fan's face suddenly became ugly, trillions of star yuan? This is definitely an astronomical amount for the Ye family, after all, their family has only developed in recent years, and they don't have too much foundation.

"Why do you need so much money?" Ye Fan stuck out his tongue and said.

"I want to ask Interstellar Engineering to transform two planets. So, it's quite expensive. Li Yi said calmly.

Ye Fan sighed and said, "No wonder. The Interstellar Engineering Company is the master of eating people and not spitting out bones, but the planet they transformed is said to never be darkened, because there is no star soul, it is safer, and it is not impossible to cooperate with them from this point of view. ”

patting Li Yi on the shoulder, Ye Fan said, "I can't help you with so much money." The core chamber of commerce will not officially start until tomorrow, and I will accompany you to contact some large mining groups to see if you can sell the laser collector at a good price. ”

"It's weird to say, you have a laser-type mining collector in your hand, but I've heard from the grapevine. The Interstellar Mining Alliance will also exhibit a similar device this time, I wonder what the Dao will look like, is there the efficiency of your kind of collector? ”

Li Yi was stunned and surprised: "What you said is true?" ”

"I'm not sure, grapevine, it's eighty percent likely." Ye Fan said.

"Host master! Our laser collector was obtained from the Dark Spirits, and now Planet Mining is about to launch a similar device, could it be—" Coke said anxiously through his bone senses.

Li Yi gritted his teeth, excused himself to go to the toilet, temporarily left the open-air exchange, came to the woods, and let Coke connect to Lin Feng, who was far away on the earth.

"Send some people, mingling with Coke Mining, to Pest to find me." Li Yi said in a deep voice.

Lin Feng was stunned and hurriedly said, "What happened?" Do you want me to send a fleet over? ”

Li Yi shook his head and said: "Just in case, if the worst happens, our fleet will not be able to withstand it, this time let Wei Xiaoyao personally lead the team." ”

Lin Feng nodded and said, "Understood, I'll arrange it immediately, and notify me immediately if there is anything." ”

Turning off the communication, Li Yi silently lit a cigarette and took a heavy puff.

Now we can only take one step at a time, this kind of thing is the skill of the Dark Ghost Clan, and now that it appears in Pest, who will take it out?

At the beginning, Li Yi himself rushed to the ancient base of the Dark Ghost Clan, risking his life to guess the laser collector and the soul transfer technique, and ordinary humans could never easily obtain such an ungodly mining technology.

"I'm afraid it's troublesome again." Li Yi frowned and muttered to himself. (To be continued......)
