In less than two days, the three Raging Miners had dug out the barren mountain.
Inside the original cave, there was a tunnel that slowly led downwards. The deeper they went, the deeper they went.
This secret base was inspired by Ye Qing based on the decrypted underground permanent bases.
They dug a hole at the corner of the mountain and dug down to the bottom of the mountain. Some nuclear bunkers could even be dug a few hundred meters deep in the middle of the mountain. Then, they could slowly expand and build a base.
The factory happened to be surrounded by barren mountains. Ye Qing had a unique environmental advantage and the Raging Miners' digging speed was beyond imagination. There was no reason not to make a secret base of his own.
The tunnel was very spacious and could accommodate two trucks side by side.
Ye Qing drove the excavator-like M.P.C.V. forward slowly for more than 20 meters. The scene under the searchlight suddenly opened up.
An underground space the size of a basketball court had been opened up by the Raging Miners.
The air here was obviously stuffy and lacked circulation.
Three Raging Miners were circling around a small hill that had a metallic texture and a color that looked like brass mixed with silver.
Under the searchlight, their fiery red eyes were filled with excitement. Their dragon-like heads kept sniffing the strange stones and licking them with their long tongues from time to time.
This was a metal mineral, but Ye Qing could not identify what kind of metal it was. If it was a silver mine, he would be rich.
As the Raging Miners licked the rocks, the Monster Factory's phone soon rang. Ye Qing took out his phone and looked.
Notification:
Raging Peons found high-purity titanium ore. It contains 63% titanium. It has a high mining value.
The Raging Miners were worthy of the Monster Factory's introduction. No metal mineral could escape their detection. They could tell the metal content with just a taste.
Titanium?
Everyone in the mechanical manufacturing industry knew about titanium. It was one of the most popular metal materials in this century.
Light weight, strong structure, heat resistance, and corrosion resistance. It could be said that this metal was sought after by all countries as soon as it came out. Countless alloy formulas were developed and applied to various cutting-edge industries.
For example, if titanium alloy technology was used in an aircraft engine, not only would the engine's weight be greatly reduced, but the structure's wear and resistance to high temperatures would also be greatly improved.
An aircraft engine cost tens of millions. Reducing the weight meant saving fuel and increasing the load. Wear resistance means increased life span and reduced maintenance.
There were countless benefits, and the number of advantages was enough to drive people crazy.
However, the success and failure of titanium were the stumbling blocks that limited its large-scale development.
Its high temperature resistance made it impossible to be refined on a large scale using steel furnaces. Its outstanding toughness and strength also made it very difficult to process.
So until now, the production capacity of titanium alloy was so low that it made people's hair stand on end. Countless processing and manufacturing industries were anxiously looking forward to it.
Titanium ores were abundant in nature. Just a handful of soil from the ground would contain a few thousandths of titanium.
The seaside was also rich in titanium ores. Friends who often played at the seaside would notice that the beach was often mixed with a kind of coarse black sand. This was the titanium ores left behind after being washed by the sea for thousands of years.
However, these titanium ores didn't have much use value. Their purity wasn't high, and they were mixed with other metals.
These titanium ores with a purity of 63% were extremely valuable!
Now, the Angry Miners had found titanium ores associated with rocks in the mountainside by the sea. Moreover, the titanium ores were extremely pure.
Most importantly, Ye Qing also knew how to mass-produce titanium alloys. The Grade Three Monster Factory had a metal smelting center and a nickel-titanium memory alloy technology.
Nickel-Titanium memory alloy. Just from the name itself, one could tell that it was incredibly awesome.
Now, based on the behavior of the Angry Miners, it was clear that they had a lot of titanium ores. The tip of the titanium ores that were exposed were definitely more titanium ores.
The problem was that the metal smelting center would cost a lot of money to create. For example, a 50-ton electric furnace and a 10,000-ton press would cost around 20 million.
The monsters could create the remaining parts, but the cost of purchasing the materials would be around 10 million.
30 million was the cost of creating the metal smelting center that weighed tens of thousands of tons. The Monster Factory's ranking would definitely rise, but Ye Qing didn't have that much money right now.
If he didn't have money, he would first open up the underground base. Ye Qing gritted his teeth and recruited another Angry Miner. He had four Angry Miners build the base around the high-quality titanium ores.
The base's structure was triangular. This was the most stable in terms of mechanics, and the further down it was, the larger the area would be.
Once he earned the money, Ye Qing would build the metal smelting center in the secret underground base.
When the time came, he would open up a new passageway. The entrance to the beach would be restored to its original state, and the passageway would also be blocked. This would prevent the base from leaking.
After giving the Angry Miners new orders, Ye Qing returned to the surface.
He actually found a high-purity titanium ores in this godforsaken place. This made Ye Qing very excited. At the same time, it also made him want to earn more money.
He went online and registered his store. He called Rong Wei and said that he wanted to give him a high-tech massage chair.
After registering the store and paying the deposit, he estimated that the Taobao staff would be able to approve it tomorrow.
At this time, his father called and asked Ye Qing why he couldn't get through to him earlier.
Since he was in the secret underground base, his phone naturally had no signal. Ye Qing said that the signal probably wasn't good, so why did he ask?
On the other side of the phone, Ye Jiangning's tone was very strange and also very excited. He asked Ye Qing where did Qiao Qi come from.
He said that the workers in the workshop were all bewitched. Even when it was time to get off work, they still didn't leave. They all swarmed in front of Qiao Qi, asking him questions about machining.
Even he, who has been in the machining industry for several decades, in front of this old man, Qiao Qi, he became like a new apprentice. Other than admiration, there was only admiration.
"Didn't I open a factory by the beach? Right now I'm processing curbstones and making parts for electric scooters. Qiao Qi was recommended by one of my workers. I saw that he was very knowledgeable about machining, so I introduced him. "
Ye Qing accepted a 10 million dollar order from the Urban Construction Bureau. This was something that Ye Jiangning already knew.
"Not only is he knowledgeable, he's practically a master." Ye Jiangning praised: "Today, under his guidance, the efficiency of the workers increased by more than double. One of the workers asked him how to ensure that the drilling wouldn't go crooked, and he actually gave five solutions in one breath. "
"I think if he didn't become a production director, he'd be more than qualified to become a professor at a university."
"He doesn't have a degree. His knowledge about machining is all from his many years of experience." Hearing that the old factory's efficiency increased, Ye Qing was also very happy.
"I also have to hurry to the class. I didn't know that these workers were so knowledgeable. Some of them even bought notebooks and started recording."
"I'm hanging up, I'm hanging up. I've already prepared my notebooks."
Ye Qing was sweating profusely. Qiao Qi's real identity is a master artisan. A master artisan recruited by the Monster Factory. Not only does he have excellent knowledge, he also has his own skills.
It can be said that the world's most experienced and most skilled machining master can't surpass a master artisan in terms of expertise.
If he were to teach these normal workers, wouldn't that be the same as Hua Luogeng teaching elementary school students math?
The next day, Ye Qing sat in front of his computer and refreshed the web page from time to time, waiting for the Taobao store to be approved.
This feeling was very strange. Even though Ye Qing was already a millionaire, he was still very excited. He imagined that his store would quickly sell its first product and then receive a lot of good reviews.
At nine o 'clock in the morning, the store was approved. Ye Qing couldn't wait to fill in a bunch of information.
Then he didn't even bother to decorate the store. He quickly uploaded over ten high definition pictures of the Mechanical Engineered Chair.
Mechanical Engineered Chair:
Our company's technical team has spent two years researching and developing this revolutionary chair with national patented technology.
It has programmable CNC functions, allowing you to experience a unique experience that you've never experienced before.
Ten thousand types of massage techniques, over a thousand types of functional experiences, close to a hundred types of VR motion simulation functions.
Ye Qing's thoughts were like a fountain. He quickly typed paragraph after paragraph of text to introduce the chair.
Ye Qing felt that this advertising slogan wasn't exaggerated at all. When the users actually experience it, they would only feel that this introduction was too conservative.
Finally …
In the price column, Ye Qing clenched his teeth and filled in 49999.
The store's only product had been released. All that was left was to see if there was any other product …
Idiot … or should be called a tycoon. He was willing to be the first to try something new.
It couldn't be helped. This kind of chair couldn't be cheap. Worst case scenario, after Rong Wei tried it out and introduced it to the other owners, Ye Qing would let them buy it online and push the sales up.
Ye Qing didn't expect the first product to sell online. But it hadn't even been ten minutes since he released the Mechanical Engineered Chair. The chat tool used to contact the buyers began to beep.
"Would you like to increase the store's popularity? We have the most professional ordering technology …"
"Scram!" Ye Qing, who was excited for nothing, directly sent the word "scram" to him.
"Only an idiot would buy your chair. 50,000 for one, why don't you go rob a bank." Someone with the ID "Store Marketing Expert" sent a mocking emoji.
With confidence in the product, Ye Qing naturally wasn't worried about the future sales.
But other than this advertising guy, even after waiting until the afternoon, no one really wanted to buy the chair. On the contrary, there were a few users who used the price to tease Ye Qing.
The chair's price was too high. So when people went from high to low, it was very easy to find the Mechanical Engineered Chair.
If no one bought it, then so be it. Ye Qing prepared to pack up the chair and give it to Rong Wei to advertise for him.
Beep Beep ~
At this time, his phone suddenly rang with a notification.
"Boss, did you misprice your chair?" This was a user with the ID "Chang Yu".
"I see that your chair looks very high class, and it looks quite good. But why is it so expensive?"
"If you think it's too expensive, then don't buy it. My chair isn't something you can afford." Ye Qing had been teased multiple times this afternoon, and now he had nothing to lose.
"I'm being looked down on?"
Chang Yu sent a sweating emoji, and continued to type: "Do you know, just these few lines of text that I sent you, do you know how much it's worth?"
"How much?" Ye Qing laughed to death, and decided to tease him.
