In a crater 100 kilometers away from Tiangong City, the B City Steel Group rover was sending liquid oxygen, fresh water, food, and other supplies to their mine.
As usual, Hansen unloaded the goods on the rover, then handed the tablet to Roger, who was in charge of acceptance, to sign. At the same time, he took advantage of his position to bring some gadgets for the engineers in the mine to relieve their loneliness.
In addition to the generous salary, life in the mining area on Mars was quite boring. At the previous mining site, they could barely receive the signal from Sventovet City, but now, whether it was Sventovet City or Tiangong City, they were quite far away.
Hansen took the tablet from Roger's hand and put it into the bag on his chest. However, when he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed that behind the mine, there were two steel buildings he had never seen before compared to the last time he came.
"What is that?"
Hansen squinted and looked at the two buildings carefully. He asked out of curiosity.
"It's the Golovins, who knows what they are doing." Roger shook his head.
"Isn't this your mining area? You don't know what they are here for? Then why did you let them in? "Hansen asked with a weird expression.
The Golovins did not have a good reputation in Tiangong City, and no one wanted to be neighbors with clones. Compared to their compatriots on Earth, immigrants like Hansen who had chosen to settle here a long time ago were quite repulsed by the clones in Sventovet City.
On the one hand, these people were never willing to take the initiative to communicate with them. On the other hand, a group of identical people standing together would instinctively make people feel physical disgust or fear.
Even though the Golovins had never done anything harmful to them.
"This is the intention of Tiangong City. I also asked the CEO … If it wasn't for Loki's approval, I wouldn't have let those freaks enter my mining area." Roger cursed in a low voice, and his expression was obviously quite unhappy.
The Loki mentioned here, of course, referred to the youngest son of the Loki family.
After hearing Roger say this, Hansen didn't speak again. He just stretched his neck and looked at the clones around the steel building.
He didn't know if they noticed his gaze, but after the clones discussed something with their eyes, one of them left their small circle and walked toward Hansen and Roger.
Roger frowned slightly and crossed his arms in front of his chest when he saw the Gorulowan walking towards him.
"What is it? If you want to borrow fresh water, go to Mengxi from the logistics department. I'm only responsible for — "
"No." Gorowen shook his head and said expressionlessly, "There's a situation here. We'll explain it to you later. I hope you can stop the mining machine first."
Hearing Ge Luowen's words, Roger was stunned at first, but then he raised his eyebrows and smiled instead of getting angry.
"Stop? Are you here to cause trouble? "
"No." Gorowen shook his head and calmly said, "We will compensate you for your losses."
"Heh, losses? Do you know how much our mining machine loses every day? "Roger waved his hand impatiently." Don't bother me with unreasonable things. "
Ge Luowen didn't say anything. He just stretched out his index finger, wrote a string of zeroes on the tablet, and handed it to Roger.
"Is this number enough?"
Whether it was Roger or Hansen who was standing next to him, when they saw this number, without exception, they were all stunned.
One billion Xin New Dollars …
Not to mention compensating them for the delay in the construction period, it would be enough to buy their entire mining area together with their equipment.
"… I can't make the decision on this matter. I have to contact my boss," Roger said with a trembling voice, with sweat dripping from his forehead.
Even if he didn't want to deal with Gorowen, no one hated money.
One billion Xin New Dollars!
As one of the partners of B City Steel Group, this number made his heart dance.
"I hope you can tell him as soon as possible that we intend to buy this place." Gorowen nodded, then looked at the mining machine plowing above the mine in the center of the mining area. "So now, can you please stop this thing?"
…
"How much do you know about the Gaia civilization?"
Sitting in the holographic conference room, Jiang Chen asked the assistant to make him a cup of tea, and then sat across from Gorowen's holographic image. Just when he thought that Gorowen the First was looking for him to discuss the order of one hundred warp engines, he suddenly asked a question that surprised him to the point that he didn't know what to answer.
"… from the origin of Gaia to the decline of the entire Gaia civilization." Considering that the Soviet Union in that world must have also excavated the ruins of the Gaia civilization, Jiang Chen said after thinking for a moment, "Is there a problem?"
"Because of the competitive relationship with Pan-Asia and NATO, the information we get about the Gaia civilization is quite limited. From the limited information, we analyzed that their species category should belong to the phylum Arthropoda, and their social type is similar to ants … "At this point, Gorowen stopped talking and looked at Jiang Chen as if he was asking for confirmation.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Chen said.
"Your analysis is correct, at least 80% correct."
Gorowen nodded slightly.
"It seems that your understanding of the Gaia civilization is deeper than ours. So, you should have heard of the planetary forging technology, right? "
When Jiang Chen heard this sentence, he couldn't help but smile.
Not to mention that he had heard of it.
The small ball made of strong interaction material, which symbolized the crystallization of the highest technology of the Gaia civilization, was still lying in his storage dimension.
"The prosperity of the Gaia civilization stemmed from their enthusiasm for the depths of the earth, and their destruction was also because of this. If you have seen that memory, then you should remember how the magnetic field that once protected Mars disappeared. "
"Of course, I probably won't forget such a shocking scene for the rest of my life." Jiang Chen smiled, put down the teacup in his hand, and said softly, "Speaking of which, did you come to me today to talk about the Gaia civilization?"
"That's right." Gorowen nodded.
"Is there anything to talk about that dead civilization? No matter how glorious they were, that's a story in another timeline. "Jiang Chen shrugged.
"Although their civilization has disappeared in the long river of time, the things they left behind can bring some help to the problems we are facing now."
"Do you mean the technology of the Gaia civilization?" Jiang Chen smiled.
He had already obtained those things a long time ago.
However, to Jiang Chen's surprise, Gorowen the First shook his head.
"That's not what I want to talk about. Do you remember what I just asked you?"
"The root cause of the destruction of the Gaia civilization is the mine that goes straight to the center of the earth …"
After a pause, Gorowen the First continued.
"… We have found it."
