I was exposed for mining on Mars

Chapter 27 ‘Little Boy’

Now every Earth Day, Luo Xiu can build 24 general-purpose robots. If it is manufactured at this speed, all positions in the Luo Xiu base will soon be fully staffed.

"The next general-purpose robot will be sent to the ice mining site to replace the two maintenance robots." Luo Xiu made arrangements for the base control system while walking out of the mine.

"Okay, Commander."

The base control system has been responsible for the dispatch of all Luo Xiu's factories and robots. Wherever there is a gap, the base control system will mobilize manpower from places where there is a shortage of people.

"With more and more manpower, we have to consider getting another generator." Luo Xiu walked out of the cave and looked in the direction of the base. From here, you can see the rotating top of the towering wind turbine. .

At this time, in the base, as the manufacturing plants and smelting plants are getting closer to normal operation, there are more and more mining machines, and general-purpose robots are constantly being rolled off the production line, so the demand for electricity in this Mars base is rising sharply. .

What's more important is that Luo Xiu is now unable to obtain more direct energy from Mars except wind energy.

On Mars, fossil energy is absolutely out of the question. At least now Luo Xiu has not discovered that there are or have been carbon-based organisms on Mars.

Without traces of the existence of carbon-based organisms, it is impossible for fossil energy sources such as oil and coal to be directly utilized to appear on Luo Xiu's list.

In addition to the most direct fossil energy, the only things Luo Xiu can use are wind turbines and generators that may be added in the future by decomposing hydrogen and oxygen from the ice.

After the hydrogen-oxygen power generation unit, the more important thing is tritium. This radioactive substance can also be extracted from the ice and becomes an important raw material for nuclear fusion power generation.

It is precisely because of this that the ice layer on Mars is definitely a treasure for Luo Xiu. Without ice, Luo Xiu himself didn't know when he would be able to obtain a sustainable energy supply.

After all, if he only relied on wind turbine generators, Luo Xiu didn't know how long it would take to lay out wind turbine generators to generate enough electricity to charge a spacecraft.

“It’s good if you don’t have to dig mines yourself.”

Luo Xiu, who got rid of the mining pickaxe for the first time, looked up at the sky of Mars. It was the golden sun hanging in the sky.

Luo Xiu came to Mars for only half a month and spent half a month digging. For Luo Xiu, it was simply an unbearable time to look back. A man who came here in a spaceship actually became a miner.

After sighing with emotion, Luo Xiu shook his head and walked towards the ice mining point.

And just when Luo Xiu was inspecting his Mars territory, on the Blue Star, because the camera of the Zhurong was not moving, the China Aerospace Center was about to welcome two experts, Luo Faqi and Xue He, so Cao Guolin did not stay. In the control center, they went to the safe room in the space center in advance to wait for Luo Faqi and the others.

After entering the safe room, since the other party had not come yet, Cao Guolin first found a chair to sit down, leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to relax.

However, Cao Guolin did not rest for too long. Only two minutes later, the door of the safe room was pushed open. The person who came was the liaison specialist, Luo Faqi and Xue He, who were brought with him.

Cao Guolin opened his eyes immediately when he heard the movement at the door, stretched out his hand to rub his temples, "Well, are you here? Professor Luo, Principal Xue, please sit down."

Although Cao Guolin did not have much contact with Luo Faqi and Xue He, they had met several times at various science and technology seminars, so they were not strangers.

"Chief Engineer Cao, although you have a heavy workload, you should pay more attention to rest." The liaison specialist sat next to Cao Guolin and whispered.

Regarding the liaison specialist's concern, Cao Guolin nodded slightly and said, "Well, it's mainly because there are too many things in the past two days."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's just talk about this mission." Cao Guolin, who immediately returned to work, put his hands on the long table in front of him.

Since this conversation was top-secret, apart from Cao Guolin, even Gou Wen in the space center did not participate.

So these four people alone are all the people attending this meeting.

After Cao Guolin brought the topic to the point, he glanced at the newly arrived person and said, "I believe Mr. Commissioner has already introduced the contents of this mission to you two, right?"

Luo Faqi and Xue He, who had just arrived, nodded and said, "Well, we already know."

"Now that I know, I won't say anything about the mission." The mission was urgent and there wasn't much time for the two of them to conduct professional training, so Cao Guolin directly skipped the mission's presentation.

"In addition to the mission process, I would like to tell you that this Mars exploration mission is different from any previous manned space mission."

"We are going to Mars, and on this planet that is tens of millions of kilometers away from the Blue Star, we have not yet conducted a return experiment. And not only us, Amerik, the island countries, and the European Alliance also do not have this capability."

"In other words, our mission is a no-return mission in an absolute sense."

"You two must be mentally prepared for this."

After Cao Guolin finished speaking, he looked at the two of them intently, ready to see their reactions.

Under Cao Guolin's gaze, the two people who had just heard Cao Guolin's statement smiled and said: "General Manager Cao, we are also people of faith, for the country, for the people, or to be more upright, We are also doing this for the entire Blue Star. Doing this kind of business is what we have always pursued."

After hearing the replies from these two people, Cao Guolin smiled with satisfaction. The candidate found by the organization was indeed unmistakable.

Just when Cao Guolin wanted to say something to Luo Faqi and Luo Faqi, the liaison specialist who had been silent suddenly raised his hand and stopped Cao Guolin from speaking.

"General Engineer Cao, Professor Luo, and Principal Xue have just received an important piece of news. I want to report it to you three first."

Cao Guolin frowned when he heard the commissioner's words. If the other party could interrupt such an important meeting, it must be very important information.

And this information is definitely related to these fire missions.

"We received top-secret information from within the Amerik Space Agency about the other party's SOAF program."

Just as Cao Guolin thought, when the liaison officer opened his mouth, it was Americ's plan for the mission to board the fire.

Speaking of this information, the liaison specialist seemed a little nervous, and he said in a deep voice: "America is preparing to carry the 'little boy' in their spaceship."

Thanks to Tang Jianing, who stood quietly during that burst of phoenix, and rewarded the leader in the dirty world
