Volume 5: The Destruction of the Gods Chapter 5 Mining
At noon, the Afghans ate wild vegetable rice, while Shen Jin and his friends ate steaming rice, braised pork, and cold cucumber salad.
The Afghans, who were originally full of happiness, looked at Shen Jin and his friends' food and suddenly felt that the rice balls in their hands were not fragrant anymore...
They only cooked half of the 100 kilograms of rice, so they stared at Shen Jin and his lunch boxes and asked, "Is this reasonable?"
At the same time, he "crunched his rice into a ball and ate it all up."
Jie Ke couldn't understand why these people didn't cook, but they brought out steaming hot meals?
Their backpacks are so empty, how come they always have so much stuff to carry?
"Hey? Do you think these Chinese people are a little different?"
"What's the difference?"
"Although these people look ordinary, but once they make a move...their temperament immediately rises!"
"My goodness, brother is really good at judging people!"
The Afghans were eating while talking in low voices. No one came to provoke them. Instead, as their hunger eased, they all developed a strange feeling. How nice it would be if they had food to eat every day?
Sun Li took all of this in and whispered to Ding Bowen, "Boss, you are using both kindness and force. We won't encounter any resistance here in the short term. These Afghans will have to work hard for us!"
Ding Bowen nodded deeply to show his agreement.
After lunch, Shen Jin took the three veteran miners and flew to the lapis lazuli vein they described as having the highest current production.
This is a new mine.
According to old miners, the mining here has only been going on for less than half a year. Although the quality of the lapis lazuli is not high and there are very few gem-grade ones, the quantity is large and they sell very well. Many foreign counterfeiters like this kind of stuff because the price is not high. They buy it and use modern technology to make it look like a gem-grade one and sell it as high-quality lapis lazuli.
Shen Jin is not so particular. It doesn’t matter whether the appearance is good or not. The most important thing is large shipment volume.
Five people were left in the camp to guard against these people. After everyone landed, three old miners lay on the ground and began to retch. They were just ordinary people with poor physical fitness. They were held by extraordinary people and flew at an extremely fast speed. Naturally, they could not withstand it.
Shen Jin didn't take care of them either. A tool should have the awareness that this job is not for nothing.
The three miners retched for a long time, relying on their strong willpower to prevent themselves from vomiting, or... they had already vomited but swallowed it back.
They began to point out several mine entrances in the surrounding mountains to Shen Jin. Shen Jin took out his [OD scanner], "Beep, beep--"
As soon as it was opened, a harsh sound was heard. [Detected: lapis lazuli, iron ore, copper ore, emerald]
"My goodness! Are there mines in the surrounding mountains???"
Just a quick exploration reveals a lot of them!
“Is this a miner’s paradise?”
There are few roads around, and there is no hardened surface. Most of them are roads frequently pressed by trucks carrying goods, commonly known as: Lu Xun Road.
After more than half a year without cars passing by, vegetation has grown on the roads here. The miners said: "People in our village are the best at walking on mountain roads. If you need people to dig ore, we can help you mine. Just give us some delicious rice. God knows how much we want food and salt. Hire us, it will definitely not be a loss!"
In their opinion, mining ore is a huge project under such road conditions. If these wealthy Chinese people intend to get more lapis lazuli, they will definitely need their help.
The people from Home No. 1 smiled... strangely.
The boss is mining... and still needs people?
Shen Jin ignored them, observed the direction on the small map, planned the approximate location, took out a set of [mining machines] and distributed them to everyone.
"Come on, follow me to play the game!"
The three old miners stood there, not knowing what Shen Jin and the others were going to do. Shen Jin took off and directed everyone in the sky to place the [mining machines], ensuring that each [mining machine] could cover the largest range and that the intersections between the machines were reduced as much as possible, so as to maximize the use of the machines.
The 64 [mining machines] not only covered the surrounding lapis lazuli mines, but also covered all the surrounding minerals that could be mined. After Shen Jin connected all the [mining machines] with [insulated copper wires] and [bronze pipes], "boom boom boom--"
The machine started moving, and the power level of the [MFE power storage box] dropped rapidly!
Shen Jin connected a few more to ensure that these [mining machines] could continue to operate.
Each [mining machine] transports the collected minerals to a large number of [steel storage boxes] on the ground through [bronze pipes]. In addition to their own weapons, armor, equipment, food, and water, each extraordinary person brought a full [steel storage box]. One person carried 27 boxes!
The [Steel Storage Box] is the second largest box in the [Industrial Module], with 63 slots in it!
If fully filled, it can store 4032 blocks.
That is to say, each person can store up to 108864 blocks.
100,000 cubic meters!
Mining is so easy!
This is also the reason why Shen Jin dared to bring so few people , because it is enough!
Even...it's difficult to fill the backpacks of these 12 people. If they are fully filled, it would probably be enough for Shen Jin to use for a lifetime.
Minerals have appeared in the [steel storage boxes] on the ground, and the amount is increasing continuously. The three old miners stared in amazement at the steel industrial production site that was suddenly built, as well as the constant roar coming from the mountain. Their worldview collapsed!
"Oh, God! Are they already mining? Just a small machine that can mine automatically when it is put down?"
"I have never heard of such technology. Could it be that China has developed such terrifying technology after the end of the world?"
"I understand! Maybe this world-destroying virus was released by China. Their country was not affected at all. Instead, they secretly developed world-leading technology. Oh my God! The Chinese are going to rule the world!!!"
Ding Bowen slapped the last old man on the mouth, "Watch your words! This is our boss's technological ability, you know nothing!"
"Superpowers?"
The three old men were full of questions and they still couldn’t understand after pondering for a long time. In the end, they just prayed to the Lord to perform a miracle so that they could also have magical powers!
Shen Jin looked at the three old men praying, shook his head and said, "Pray when you encounter a problem that cannot be solved. If prayer is useful, why bother trying? Just stay at home and eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures! Fighting against zombies depends on the power of the people, not the power of gods!"
Sun Li sighed, "Boss, I used to think so too, but... what about the end of the world? Currently, no country has admitted to researching this virus. Even if it was leaked from a certain country's research institute, it would not suddenly descend on every corner of the earth without a blind spot. This is really like the power of some... god!"
Ding Bowen and Li Moxiao both nodded: "Yes, this virus came too strangely..."
Shen Jin was silent for a moment, and his mind recalled the female voice that was first given to his system.
"Perhaps... there are people who are so powerful that we cannot even imagine and who are controlling all of this!"
The emergence of extraordinary people has brought new perspectives to some previous events.
If superpowers are new powers unlocked by zombie crystal cores, then... what about gene locks? What kind of stories are hidden in this genetic power that originally exists in the human body?
Are the ancestors of mankind...very strong?
“Ding Di——”
Shen Jin's satellite phone rang, interrupting his thoughts. It was a text message. Looking at the unfamiliar number, Shen Jin was a little confused. After reading the content of the text message, he understood...
"It seems that we have to go to the main base in Afghanistan!"
Li Moxiao blinked: "What are you going to do, uncle?"
"Get a bottle of medicine..."
