"Mr. Rich Boss, Mr. Rich Boss, wake up, the sun is high up in the sky …"
"What's the matter? I'll sleep a little longer if there's nothing else. The sun won't be high for long, there aren't many days where I can sleep peacefully, "Fang Ning mumbled and turned around on the bed, not wanting to get up.
Sir System was puzzled, "Eh, since ancient times, the sun has always risen in the east and set in the west, why did you say it won't be high for long?"
"Oh, nothing," Fang Ning felt guilty, he rubbed his eyes and casually said, "As Axiom Daddy becomes more powerful, Grandpa Sun will not be able to escape its clutches sooner or later. The moon has already been squeezed into a big pancake, can the sun still rise and set in the east and be safe?"
"That's true, but why do you think this idiot Heavenly Axiom squeezed the moon into a big pancake? Is it to make it convenient for him to eat whenever he's hungry? That's a good idea, I remember your ancestor Dragon God said the same thing, that the Earth's Heavenly Axiom wants to tear the moon apart and eat it bite by bite, "Sir System speculated, trying to be clever.
Fang Ning was speechless, "I was just giving an analogy and you're thinking about eating, I think you're more of a glutton than Daqing."
"You're slandering me again, I eat a lot to improve my strength, unlike you people who don't know how to control your food and only know how to satisfy your mouth without caring about your body," Sir System said matter-of-factly.
"Okay, let's put this aside for now. Anyway, based on my deduction, Axiom Daddy probably didn't make this big pancake for eating. The ancestor Dragon God only said how the Heavenly Axiom eats the moon, but it didn't say that it must eat the moon, "Fang Ning shook his head.
"Then what is it for?" Sir System was interested and asked.
"Maybe it's to provide a place for people to cultivate quickly, or maybe there's a deeper meaning. We seem to have underestimated Axiom Daddy, it's not a glutton. The so-called Heavenly Mysteries are unpredictable, the Heavenly Axiom is impermanent, it's not just empty words, "Fang Ning said nonchalantly.
"Wait a minute, I feel like you're fooling me again. Tell me the truth, was it because you were sleeping in that you ignored the new hint from the stupid Heavenly Axiom, just like that stupid bear?" Sir System went straight to the point.
When Fang Ning heard this, he was instantly exasperated. "You're the one who's making unfounded accusations! I never sleep too soundly. I always listen to Axiom Daddy's hints and never miss out on important information. How can you compare me to a bear? "
"Oh, is that so?" Sir System said in disbelief, "Such an intense emotional reaction. I heard that you humans call it a guilty conscience."
"Hehe, I'm very calm now. How am I emotional? It was just an instinctive reaction after being wrongly accused, "Fang Ning spouted nonsense with a straight face.
"Then forget it, I still have things to do. There was a guy who anonymously sold the complete equipment and technology for a magma geothermal power station on a secret network. He also sent a group of engineers, and the price was 400 bottles of Dragon Clan Honey-flavored Pills. I think it's a good price-to-performance ratio, so we can get it over. You can go take a look and see if it's suitable. "Sir System finally got down to business.
Fang Ning quickly agreed. "Sure, sure. Give me the URL, I'll go take a look right away."
…
Not long after, Fang Ning went to the URL given by Sir System and saw that an anonymous poster was selling the Dragon Clan Honey-flavored Pills for free.
He skimmed through it briefly and immediately came to a realization. "There really are people who make money from national disasters everywhere. I remember that this technology is exclusive to the Greater Rat Clan and has always been kept a secret. Now that we've just suppressed Elder Ancestor Bai, someone is already taking advantage of the chaos and selling this precious technology, this is … Great!
"Now the Draconic Arcane Realm is using vitality to generate electricity. After a year of observation, it consumes too much vitality, causing the arcane realm's vitality concentration to not increase. It can be used in a small area, but it's too extravagant to use it in a large area. Vitality is used to evolve living beings, so it shouldn't be used for ordinary production and living. It's a technological energy source with low cost. "
"You're right. That's why we need to quickly get this power generation technology, so we won't have to spend money in the future." Sir System urged.
Fang Ning thought about it and shook his head. "Don't rush. Our Morality City is different from Earth, where would there be magma? The layer of land beneath it is about ten to twenty thousand meters thick, and it's probably the bottom. "
"Then what should we do? Morality City is the biggest power consumer. In the future, we'll need to build a large territory of more than a hundred thousand square kilometers, and it'll be called a super mega city. Now that it's just being built, just the fuel used to generate electricity is a huge expense. You don't know how expensive fuel is if you're not in charge, and the little treasury won't allocate funds to me either. "Sir System said gloomily.
"There's a way. We can carry out energy exchange, buy this set of technical equipment and personnel, and resell them at a higher price. With the money we get, we can build a few nuclear power plants. That way, you can transport a truck full of fuel, and it'll be enough for a few years." Fang Ning's mind went into overdrive, and an idea came to his mind.
Out of Fang Ning's expectation, Sir System immediately rejected the idea. "Your idea sucks, but you've reminded me. Why should I go through all that trouble? Can't I just use my four hundred bottles of Honey-flavored Pills to exchange for nuclear power plants? I can exchange as much as I want. I think you've been sleeping too much that your brain is not working well anymore. Looks like I'll have to set an alarm clock for you next time. "
"Uh, Sir System, you're really smart for once …" Fang Ning was suddenly speechless. "You're right. If that's the case, then the magma power plant is really useless to us. We can just go directly to the nuclear power plant."
Just as Fang Ning said, Bai Shixin thought so too.
As someone who was well-versed in human culture and technology, he understood the pros and cons of geothermal power plants very well. Greater Rats lived underground, so it was more convenient to use.
For humans, developing this kind of energy was just icing on the cake. It was impossible to provide charcoal in snowy weather.
It had too high requirements for the terrain. Places without active ley lines and a lack of shallow underground magma were not suitable for construction.
Magma would only appear after drilling tens of thousands of meters, so the cost was too high for humans. It was far better to build hydropower stations, solar power, and wind power, which were equally clean energy sources.
Therefore, the concept of geothermal power plants had been proposed for a long time, and the technology had been researched for a long time, but it had never been put into large-scale development and construction.
Therefore, he did not pay much attention to it. There were not many people who would covet this power generation technology.
…
Nie Yuan was very gloomy. There was no way to sell them. The geothermal power plant that he had painstakingly obtained was put up for sale on the Internet, but no one was interested in it for a long time.
Occasionally, a few people inquired about it, but they also asked if they could change the payment method. They actually wanted to use US dollars or Euros to exchange for it!
Change my * ss, do I look like someone who lacks money?
It was impossible to hire real powerhouses with money, and they did not lack that bit of money.
Only elixirs that could speed up one's cultivation could attract experts to join him and risk their lives to work for him.
The Dragon Clan Honey-flavored Pill was one of the best hard currencies. It had always been in short supply. In the past, it could still be bought with money, but now, it could only be exchanged with rare vitality materials.
Obviously, cultivators were gradually understanding that the currency of the secular world was no longer suitable as a general equivalent in the cultivation world.
This was because no one lacked money. It was easy to get money, but there were not many places to spend it. There were not many extravagant cultivators, and they could not cultivate to a very high level.
However, the vitality materials that everyone urgently needed were very precious. Now, it was equivalent to the pioneering period of a new game. The prices were high because there were few producers, but there were many consumers. Everyone who could cultivate was a potential consumer.
As for the producers, they had just started training, and many vitality industries were still in the basic stage of construction. For example, the sacred bee breeding in the Land of Heritage by the Truth Department would need at least a year to plan and produce sacred beeswax.
No wonder Bai Shixin did not care about this place. It seemed like he knew that no cultivators would be interested in this geothermal technology, so he could only sell it to mortals.
