Chapter 90: Ill Help You Boost Your Efficiency In Mining

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Commander, the cost of deploying the Skynet system is pretty low. In order to quickly recover technology points, you can lower the price

I know. By the way, find an opportunity to sell the Xiaotian as well

Zhao Yu nodded. He was only one thousand technology points away from upgrading the Hall thruster. As for the Skynet system, he didnt really care too much about it. Even if he gave it away for free to Earth, it wouldnt matter.

I have arrived. We can talk about the rest later

Good!

Zhao Yu controlled the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p and slowly descended towards Earth.

Upon reaching the base in Xiadu, Zhao Yu was invited to the reception room.

It didnt take long before Colonel Chu walked out from the base.

Mr. Zhao, youre here!

Hmm!

Before Zhao Yu could say much, Colonel Chus face lit up with joy. Mr. Zhao, I have good news for you!

Good news?!

Zhao Yu was taken aback for a moment and curiously asked, What news?

The number of robots sold by our Blue Moon Factory has exceeded two hundred million units, equivalent to six hundred billion in Blue Moon currency

Six hundred billion?!

Zhao Yu was greatly surprised. The first defense line only required about 10.9 billion Blue Moon currency resources. How could they sell so many robots?

Thats right. In addition to robots, weve also received numerous orders for maglev buses and light scissors elevators

Colonel Chu spoke hesitantly and said, However, we have a problem now that is difficult to solve

What problem?! Six hundred billion Even if the Xiaotian upgraded once and went all out to collect resources, it would still take over a hundred days.

Our Earths reserves of resources are running low, and most of them have not been excavated yet

Furthermore, while we were busy making orders, we didnt consider the shortage of resources, and there are some complaints among the public about not being able to obtain robots

We also want the Skynet system you mentioned, but now it seems that the trade may be temporarily impossible

With so many orders for robots, delaying deliveries might affect future sales

Colonel Chu continued incessantly, following the train of thought of the think tank. Three sentences summarized the current situation: insufficient resources, priority supply to robots, and so on.

In his opinion, since the aliens wanted to have a friendly relations.h.i.+p with the humans, the deployment of the Skynet system would likely be delayed.

Little did he know that after pondering for a moment, Zhao Yu spoke, The resource issue is easy to solve. During our initial trade, we agreed on cash on delivery

At that time, both parties didnt know each other well. Now that our cooperation is so close, we can be more lenient

How about this? I can extend a credit limit of one hundred billion to you. You can slowly repay the resources without any rush

Ah?

Colonel Chu was taken aback. The aliens actually wanted to offer them credit.

But, one hundred billion Mr. Zhao, we are afraid we wont be able to repay it in a short time

In all our history, Earth has only acc.u.mulated around thirty billion Blue Moon dollars worth of resources through mining and excavation

One hundred billion might be

Dont worry, I believe you wont default on the payment Zhao Yu said with a smile.

Currently, the mining output of the Xiaotian was approximately three hundred million Blue Moon dollars worth of resources per day. If Earth also started full-scale mining, he would have plenty of resources each day.

While Colonel Chu was contemplating whether to accept the hundred billion credit, Zhao Yus next words surprised him.

In addition, it seems that your mining efficiency is not good. I plan to sell you a special mining machine

As he spoke, Zhao Yu waved his hand, and a first-generation Xiaotian walked in.

What is this?

Colonel Chu looked at the familiar machine in front of him and quickly realized that it was the resource collection machine that had appeared on the moon before.

Are you willing to sell this to us?!

Of course, in business, we should always help our partners Zhao Yu smiled. Improving your mining efficiency will also benefit our trade!

He continued, Furthermore, we have brought the Skynet system with us. This time, we can install it all at once

Mr. Zhao, we may not be able to afford it now

No problem. With so many robot orders, its enough for me to profit. As for the Skynet system, just consider it as a token of our goodwill. Were giving it to you!

But we dont want it!

Colonel Chu cursed in his mind, but at the moment, he couldnt find a reason to refuse.

After all, in order to reject the installing of the skynet system, they had to use shortage of resources as an excuse.

Now, Zhao Yu delivered the goods first and offered a machine that would increase mining efficiency.

Mr. Zhao

I know you are short on resources right now. How about this? Well sell the Skynet system for about one hundred Blue Moon dollars worth of resources, and the first Xiaotian as another hundred Blue Moon currency equivalent resources. You can use the credit limit to buy as many Xiaotians as you want Colonel Chu reluctantly had to agree.

They were weak, and even refusing wasnt something they dared to do openly. Then lets proceed with the transaction now, Senator Chu. Thank you very much for the robot order worth 600 billion Blue Moon currency equivalent resources

The transaction was completed.

Zhao Yu also received 1000 technology points. He didnt stay long and hurriedly left the reception room.

Just as he was about to board the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, a middle-aged man walked out and called out.

Turning around, it was a man who had appeared beside him before when Zhang Yuxia and Liu Ning were in contact. He seemed to be from the aeros.p.a.ce department.

Is there something?

Sorry to bother you, Mr. Zhao

Chief Engineer Yang looked anxious. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke, I have a friend named Zhang Tao who became infatuated with the wrong person. He betrayed Earth and went to the moon some time ago. I wonder if he is okay?

Zhang Tao

Zhao Yu looked at Chief Engineer Yang for a moment and casually said, Hes doing great. He is now an Li level employee at the base and gets to work with the person he likes every day. He couldnt be happier

As long as hes alive, thats good. Thank you, sir Chief Engineer Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

This inquiry seemed like a personal matter for him, but in fact, it was a task arranged by the base to find out about Zhang Taos whereabouts.

Zhao Yu nodded and, seeing that he had nothing else to say, he directly boarded the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.

Colonel Chu returned to the underground base with a sense of frustration and informed everyone about the situation.

The room fell into silence after hearing what he had to say.

After a while, Senator Zhou spoke, Well, let it be. Even if they deploy the Skynet system, it can only monitor the civilian network. We use a wired local area network internally

In fact, we dont need to worry so much! Chen Xiaos words caught everyones attention.

If they want to set up the Skynet system, let them. The terminals are still under our control!

Chen Xiao smiled and pointed at the special mobile phone on the table, indicating, The chip!

Colonel Chus eyes brightened. Right, to connect to the Skynet system, they need to install their provided chip in the phone. As long as our research progress is a bit slower.
