Zhou Guoqiang took a sip of tea before he said solemnly: "Recently, the red sand beach has been excavating the remains of mushroom civilization, and the passage connecting the salt lake to the underground river has been temporarily blocked, and all the water in it has been pumped out, and more than a dozen underground river entrances have been found, and hundreds of people are looking for mushroom civilization relics in the underground river every day. ”

Because of the situation of replicating fungi and humans on Mars, replicating fungi is also a bit similar to mushrooms, and after research by scientists around the world, the unknown creatures under Mars and the red sand beach are officially named mushroom civilization.

Yang Zhou naturally knew about the secret base's excavation of the Red Beach underground river, and he had countless pairs of eyes that could see human actions at any time.

In this regard, Yang Zhou can only say that these are all wasted efforts.

He can always let the Creation Mushroom under the Tengger Desert be transferred, and the underground river leads to the Qilian Mountains, and the water source is actually water from the melting glaciers of the Qilian Mountains.

Now the Creation Mushroom is actually no longer under the Tengger Desert, but has gone to the Qilian Mountains, the source of the water source.

There is still a difference in appearance between the genesis mushroom and the replicating fungus, the genesis mushroom is more human-like in appearance, while the replicating fungus and the mushroom are somewhat similar.

What appears in front of everyone now is actually a replica fungus, and the creation mushroom has never appeared.

Yang Zhou did not cut off the source of human replication fungi, because he did not want to cut off human research on plants, and he didn't know what the big filter crisis was in the future, Yang Zhou might still need human strength.

And as a Chinese, Yang Zhou hopes to see the rise of China.

In the past, the development has always been normal, but because there are too many black technologies that have been brought out, it has caused a lot of butterfly effects.

As a result, all walks of life have been targeted, and Yang Zhou is ready to create a common enemy for the sake of harmony between the major forces on the earth.

It's just that I don't think about it too much, and I personally participate too much in this process.

At that time, if the spacecraft that transported the replicating fungus did not belong to Yang Zhou, and he did not transport the replicating fungus to Mars, the situation would definitely be much better.

It is precisely because of personal participation that there is a lot of estrangement.

After all, human beings know too little about the mushroom civilization, and no one knows whether these Martian creatures will threaten humans.

After a short exchange, the mushroom civilization is already threatening humans to send replicating fungi to Mars.

That's why Hua Guo chose to unite the major forces, which is not an alliance, but can only be regarded as relieving the pressure faced and looking for helpers.

At the same time, some information that was previously kept secret is now made public.

Even if it is not made public, other forces can also use satellites to observe the changes in Mars, and at that time, they will let Huaguo give an explanation.

Yang Zhou could not intervene in the advancement of these things.

Nodding, Yang Zhou smiled: "Is there any gain from that?" ”

Zhou Guoqiang frowned slightly, because Yang Zhou's performance was too bland, did he really not care about the affairs of Red Beach at all, or did he already know more about the mushroom civilization?

It's not easy to ask directly, Zhou Guoqiang said truthfully: "No, all the current attempts in the Tengger Desert have ended in failure, no traces of civilization have been found, and a lot of replicating fungi have been found in the underground river, these replicating fungi are like ordinary creatures, without any intelligence, and they have not seen the walking fungi of the Martian mushroom people." ”

"I haven't been able to find out what the replicating fungus is breeding for, and now a lot of people over there are studying what the hell is going on every day."

After talking about the general situation, Zhou Guoqiang began to talk about the changes in the secret aerospace base.

The exchange of various interests behind the major forces, the compromise did not mention, but said: "In addition, now the secret space base has promised to build spaceships for other major forces, and these spaceships will go to Mars to explore, NASA will launch a spacecraft to Mars in the near future, and they don't fully believe a lot of our information, so they have to go and see for themselves." ”

These Yang Zhou didn't know, although he had countless replicating fungi and replicating spores on the red beach, he was not omniscient.

For example, when someone is in a meeting, he doesn't have a chance to eavesdrop.

"What's going on, is our stuff exporting?" Yang Zhou frowned.

"Yes, the plant engine has been exported, and the other party can rely on this engine to build a Mars spacecraft with a load of several thousand tons, of course, in order to get this spacecraft, they have paid a lot, you should have seen it in the news recently, and there are chips that can be used, and of course there are more, such as lithography machines, we can also buy them." Zhou Guoqiang said.

To put it bluntly, it is an exchange of interests, the plant technology mastered by Huaguo is too rebellious, and the other party does not believe the news given by the secret base, they may think that they can study this engine thoroughly, so they use other interests in exchange.

It can also be regarded as a reintegration of China into the Western world in terms of trade.

Yang Zhou nodded when he heard this, but he was quite satisfied, it seems that the emergence of the Martian civilization is still very useful.

The latest lithography machines can be purchased, and it may not be long before Huaguo's copycat strength can produce lithography machines by itself.

As for the plant engine, the export is completely acceptable, and when Yang Zhou was in the red beach, he began to sell spaceships to the outside world.

So that ordinary enterprises can also buy spaceships, and the performance of plant engines will definitely be exposed and studied.

Now other forces have also seen the speed of the spacecraft of the secret space base through satellite observation, which must be the most basic premise of this cooperation.

The secret base has been studying plant engines for a long time, and there is no clue at all, knowing that this technology is currently uncrackable by humans, as long as it masters how to produce it, it is not a big problem to sell some.

There are deliberately stricter cooperation clauses in the cooperation agreement, which restricts the direction of use of this engine, and it should not be stupid enough to let the other party use this engine on its own fighter jet.

Of course, even if this happens, it's nothing, just like the original copy fungus, the other party only has one, and now there is only one engine.

Huaguo can rely on energy to continuously produce plant engines.

If the other party really uses plant engines in the military, they will finally find out in despair that there are dozens of engines on one of China's aerospace carriers.

They only have a plant-engined fighter.

There is no comparison at all, and perhaps this is also the reason for dealing with slow compromise.

Yang Zhou is more concerned about when the spacecraft will be launched, and he can roughly calculate the time to arrive at Mars.

"They bought the engine, when will they be able to go to Mars to explore?" Yang Zhou asked.

Just now, Zhou Guoqiang said that if he didn't have a secret base that I completely believed, he would go to Mars to see it in person, and most of the engine was used in the spacecraft.

"The engines have been airlifted back as soon as possible, supposedly to replace one of the rocket engines they had built before." Zhou Guoqiang said.

"No, didn't you tell them that the previous materials might not be able to withstand the power of the plant engine?" Yang Zhou wondered.

You must know that when he came up with the plant engine, he stayed in the secret base for a long time, and finally solved the problem by relying on supermelt materials.

"After the other party knew the performance, they also tried to ask us how to solve this problem, which we didn't say, the supermelt material is still in a state of secrecy, and this material can also be used to make small suns, which will not be easily shared with them."

"But in the end, they didn't find a way to buy our technology, because their own materials are ahead of us, and they should be sure to use the materials they have researched to build a spacecraft to go to Mars." Zhou Guoqiang said.

In fact, the hardness of supermelt materials does not exceed that of some materials on earth, but it is super malleable and heat-resistant.

There are still a lot of black technologies in the beautiful country, such as the legendary maglev triangular spaceship, this kind of very sci-fi thing, Yang Zhou heard some bigwigs say it when he was in the secret base, and he suspected that they really had this thing.

Even some bigwigs said when they were chatting with Yang Zhou that they suspected that the other party had also obtained alien technology.

Of course, there is no evidence to support this, just speculation.

If this is the case, then Huaguo doesn't have to worry about the other party now, because all the output of the mushroom civilization is currently in the Tengger Desert, and the right to use and own it is Huaguo's, and the other party can only exchange the benefits if they want to get it.

Knowing that NASA was going to launch a spacecraft to Mars alone, Yang Zhou's heart moved.

If they dare to do anything excessive, they can attack the other party's spaceship and show the combat effectiveness of the Martian civilization.

Thinking of the combat effectiveness, Yang Zhou sighed in his heart again, he has been busy for a long time, but unfortunately he has not found radioactive elements on Mars, I really don't know where these things have gone.

In fact, radioactive elements are not easy to find on the earth, but some elements can be extracted from seawater, such as uranium, and the most abundant radioactive element in seawater is uranium.

Of the 300,000 tons of seawater, only 1 kilogram of uranium is contained, and the amount of extraction varies according to the method of extraction.

In the past, the technology of extracting uranium from seawater lagged behind foreign countries, and only last year did it succeed in breaking the monopoly of foreign countries and achieving self-sufficiency.

In fact, all natural substances on the earth contain different amounts of natural radioactive elements, and so much uranium in seawater is also slowly accumulated.

Theoretically, uranium must also be present in the soil on Mars.

It's just that Yang Zhou was unlucky and didn't find a uranium mine.

He didn't care about the mining of uranium, there was a World Tree, and the uranium scattered in other ores could also be refined separately, and the World Tree was equivalent to an ore mining factory.

It's just that radioactive elements are contained in all kinds of materials on the earth, and they can also be refined in seawater, but the situation is slightly different on Mars, the surface soil of Mars has long been ravaged by sandstorms because there is no atmospheric protection, and the surface is covered with a layer of rust, and the atmosphere also contains a lot of rust, which is why the earth will see red when it looks at Mars.

This rust, which is actually the iron accumulated by the large volcanoes of Mars, was blown to the surface of Mars, and finally the sand layer blew onto the surface of Mars and covered the entire surface.

Scientists have shown that iron can also rust in the absence of water.

When the planets are formed, they are actually dust, and heavy materials will slowly suck into the center, such as gold, a natural element that is almost as heavy as uranium, both of which are materials formed by the Big Bang, rather than minerals that are slowly formed in the later stages like oil and coal.

Most of the gold and uranium initially sank into the ground, but were brought to the surface by volcanic eruptions.

Finally, minerals such as gold ore and uranium ore were formed.

Theoretically, there must be these two mines on Mars, but it is not easy to find, and the area covered by Yang Zhou's world tree is still too small, so I haven't found it for the time being.

However, Yang Zhou now has an idea, that is, the earth's seawater contains uranium.

Yang Zhou has found underground lakes on Mars, so there should be uranium in these waters, and he is trying to absorb this water to extract uranium and other natural radioactive elements such as radium (Ra), potassium-40 (40K), rubidium (Rb) and cesium (Cs).

These 6 elements are one of the components of all substances, of course, their number is very small, which needs to be searched slowly, if you are lucky, you may find the radioactive element ore that forms the ore, and if you are unlucky, you can only absorb the groundwater to see if you can extract it.

Groundwater flows through countless lands, absorbing all these elements in the water, and Yang Zhou still has a high probability of success.

Yang Zhou heard a lot from Zhou Guoqiang, and may have apologized to Yang Zhou, and Zhou Guoqiang also secretly told Yang Zhou that many people were running and talking for Yang Zhou.

Among them are the old academicians who supported Yang Zhou in the past, as well as those scientists in the red beach.

None of them believed that Yang Zhou would betray humans and secretly help the mushroom civilization.

When sending Zhou Guoqiang away, Yang Zhou said to him: "Brother Zhou, don't worry, I understand, I have been waiting patiently at home for a while recently, and it is just a vacation, you don't have to think about it, I have no grudge against them." ”

Zhou Guoqiang couldn't see through Yang Zhou, so he could only leave with a lot of heart.

After Zhou Guoqiang left, Yang Zhou locked himself in the room again, now he has to hurry up, NASA is trying to find a way to explore Mars in person, and other big forces may also be going on.

Maybe there are some people who don't follow the rules and want to test the strength of the Martian mushroom civilization.

Even everyone reached a tacit agreement to allow certain forces to test the mushroom civilization.

Yang Zhou wanted to be ready when they were tempted, so that everyone could see that the mushroom civilization was not a showcase.

After breaking away from the core, there are still some inconvenient places, that is, now Yang Zhou doesn't know if the secret base has relaunched the spacecraft to send the replica fungus to Mars.

He definitely can't ask, and if he does, others will suspect him even more if he is a spy of the mushroom civilization.

Lying on the sofa again, Yang Zhou's thoughts possessed the World Tree and began to check Lin's progress.

The technologies for extracting uranium from water mainly include foaming separation method, bioaccumulation method and adsorption method.

Among them, the bio-enrichment method is actually similar to what is going on in the World Tree right now.

Of course, the earth is not used by plants such as trees, but by microorganisms and fungi.

On Mars, Yang Zhou's most critical thing is the creation mushroom, and the creation mushroom is actually essentially a kind of fungus, Yang Zhou can actually study the genes in the creation mushroom, which is specialized in absorbing uranium.

Combining these genes with the World Tree's uranium-absorbing genes may lead to the creation of a completely new uranium-absorbing organism.

It is still in the experimental stage, and the task that Yang Zhou gave to Lin and these elves before is to let them try to absorb the uranium element in the water of the underground lake on Mars.
