On this day, William was listening to Sunday's report in the manor about the progress of the construction of the X17 planet base and the construction of the Martian spaceship parts.
Sunday reported, "Sir, the non-core parts that can be allocated are expected to be completed next month after three months of work.
The spaceship engine and other equipment have been built in the secret base in Yellowstone Park.
However, I strongly remind you to delay the launch of the spaceship by a year.
Otherwise, it will only take four months to build a spaceship that can fly to the Moon and Mars.
This is incredible for all the Blue Planet people.
The engine, the materials attached to the spaceship shell, the energy converter, these are technologies that are beyond this era.
It is also difficult to keep the assembly a secret. Once investigated, our production base may also be exposed. "
"Just tell me how much it cost me to build this third-rate spaceship."
William asked impatiently. In his heart, he also understood that the technology of this spaceship was so low that it was hard to accept.
In the eyes of the Blue Planet people, it was so advanced that they would not hesitate to use human lives to get it.
Three months ago, a group of more than forty mercenaries were slaughtered by the Predators.
Although there were basically no more private spies, England's agents alone had captured no less than ten spies from various countries who had outsourced equipment.
On the other hand, William had already caught twenty-one spies.
There were even a few who William had already discovered their identities, but he had not touched them.
For example, the beauty named Natasha, who had already applied for the position of Abigail's assistant with her own strength.
As for the person from the Celestial Empire, after William discovered the guy's identity, he thought about it for a few days before directly firing him and letting him go.
"The Blue Planet spaceship has cost you nearly 400 million pounds. The estimated cost for the entire spaceship to be completed is 600 million pounds."
Hell, this was under the condition that the core equipment was built by himself, and it would cost 600 million pounds.
If it were not for the fact that the Blue Planet's money was not so important to William, who was already preparing to enter space, he would not necessarily be reluctant to spend it.
However, the problem that Sunday reminded William was not impossible to solve.
"Ask Rolo, which produces aircraft engines in England, if their engine project team and engineers have any plans to sell.
Since there is a risk of the Predators' energy technology being exposed, then use the Arc Reactor as an energy source.
Anyway, the finished product of the arc reactor was already in use in England.
In addition, there was a portal. If they didn't have enough energy and materials, they could directly teleport from the Blue Planet to the spaceship.
Help me calculate if it's suitable to use the arc reactor as a power source. How much will the energy consumption of the spaceship increase? Can it drive the spaceship to Mars? "
"Yes, sir."
During the calculation on Sunday, William asked again, "Under the pretext of building a spaceship, have the materials for the real spaceship improved with the technology of the Predators been collected?"
"The raw materials for synthesizing special metals have been collected. In another twenty days, the construction of the first phase of the base project on planet X17 will be completed.
At that time, we can build a new production line on planet X17. The estimated time to build the spaceship is three months. "
"A spaceship needs three months?" William shook his head gloomily. "And this is a miniature spaceship that's only 35 meters long.
How am I supposed to fight a fleet battle in the future? Are you going to tell them to wait for me for three months and wait for the spaceship to be built before we fight? "
"I'm sorry, sir. Planet X17 started from scratch and built a production base that's 400 meters long, 300 meters wide, and 20 meters tall in three months.
I only built it after simplifying a lot of safety measures. "
"But now that we have this base, we can continuously produce mountain-cutting equipment and engineering robots."
"The second, larger base is two kilometers long, 500 meters wide, and 20 meters tall.
The estimated time would be reduced to two months. By then, the thirty-five-meter-long spaceship would be built.
The construction time will be reduced to ten days per spaceship, and the 100-meter-long spaceship will only take a month to produce one. "
"Also, let me remind you, even if we can blow up the number of spaceships, to be honest, other than the energy cannons and the space jump engine, the technology of the Predators
Doesn't have any technology to show. " "In this case, before we get a new energy shield technology, I don't recommend you fight any space wars.
Otherwise, the losses will be too great for us to bear. Moreover, the Blue Planet is also regarded as an interstellar race by the outer space races. "
"Once this happens, there is a high probability that there will be unpredictable consequences."
"Damn, I'm just saying. I'm not so stupid as to fight an interstellar war with other interstellar races."
"Making a fortune in silence is the way of the king."
After William finished speaking, Sunday reported, "Sir, the arc reactor uses cold nuclear fusion technology."
"With the Predator's energy converter, it's no problem to use it as an energy source, but the energy consumption is about sixty times that of energy crystals."
"We have to reserve an energy storage room inside the Martian spaceship.
If we build the energy source for the arc reactor ourselves, we'll need a lot of raw materials. Otherwise, if we buy it, we won't be able to buy the materials. "
"The cost will probably make your heart ache so much that you won't be able to eat."
The problem of the materials was really a problem. If he bought a lot, the Americans might really go all out to mess with him.
However, William closed his eyes and didn't think for long before a smile appeared on his face.
"It's okay. I know a place with a lot of materials from before the Red Polar Bear disintegrated."
Thinking of the materials that had to be transported by more than a dozen trucks in Kamikaze Squad 2,
William wasn't worried about the raw materials, but this matter had to be calculated carefully.
Just as he was thinking about how to get that batch of raw materials, Sunday suddenly said,
"Sir, maybe you can ask the Predator. It shouldn't be difficult for them to get the raw materials."
Fainting, this was really blinding. It shouldn't cost much jade talismans to ask the Predator to buy some energy that was already outdated for them.
"Sunday, help me ask them about the price of the materials. If it's suitable, just buy it."
"Understood, Sir."
He waited for more than two hours, but in less than two hours, he was able to connect to someone hundreds of light-years away.
Communication technology was actually very, very strong.
"Sir, the Predator's reply is that if converted to blue planet units, one energy crystal can be exchanged for ten units."
"One unit weighs one kilogram of materials."
"One kilogram is about 2.2 pounds." William thought about it and an excited expression appeared on his face. "Doesn't that mean that if we use energy as money,
How many dollars can 22 pounds of materials be exchanged for? "
"Less than 31 million dollars." Hearing Sunday's answer, William was stunned. "Doesn't that mean that I can trade 200 jade talismans with the Predator every time?"
"I can earn six billion dollars in one go?"
