Chapter 2 Hard work and determination
Sixty days later in Earth time.
Zhu Bin woke up from the medical cabin again. He looked at the soft light outside the transparent hatch and listened to the crisp sound of water droplets seeping into the corner of the room and smashing to the ground. He felt as if he was in another world.
"Huh! This time is really suspenseful! If I hadn't been lucky, I would have almost confessed! But who said that? If you survive a disaster, you will have good luck in the future! Kaka! This time I will be prosperous!
"
Push open the hatch cover and stand up, raise your arms and turn your waist and do a few random movements. Your muscles and joints will make a series of crisp sounds. After taking a few deep breaths, the pain caused by the injuries inside and outside will be gone.
.
“It’s been restored well!”
Although it was a second-hand junk product that had been eliminated, the medical effect after being trained by experts was still satisfactory. Zhu Bin nodded happily and stepped out. A sudden dizziness hit his head, causing him to stagger twice involuntarily and almost fall down.
Holding on to the wall to steady his body, Zhu Bin rubbed his forehead vigorously with his fists. Zhu Bin muttered unhappily: "The sequelae of this concussion are quite serious. It seems that we need to take more care of ourselves in the future."
Two robotic arms slid silently along the roof track and flexibly put a one-piece spacesuit on Zhu Bin, wrapping him tightly.
Zhu Bin looked at it with satisfaction, raised his head and said to the robotic arm: "Thank you, Wall-E!"
"You're welcome, Captain!" The robotic arm waved in a humane manner and slid away quietly.
After turning a few corners and arriving at the cockpit, the chaos caused by space storms and collisions had already been sorted out in order. Wall-E, a maintenance robot with a crawler chassis as the main body and a big square head, waved two ugly mechanical arms to greet him.
Coming up, the dull electronic voice said softly: "Congratulations on your recovery, my dear captain!"
Zhu Bin hugged it, looked around and nodded with satisfaction: "You did a great job, Walli. It's really a blessing to have you by your side in this strange time and space. I promise, I'll wait for us
After returning to the Federation, I will definitely replace you with a better machine body."
"Thank you, Captain." Walli remained as tepid and polite as ever.
Zhu Bin has always insisted that Walli call him captain, even though he is just driving a garbage ship and he is just a down-and-out garbage man. However, rag pickers also have dreams! He has dreamed since he was a child that one day he can sail a few garbage boats.
A ten-kilometer-long super space battleship, commanding thousands of battleships to swim in the sea of stars and expand territories... Although, so far, he has not even been able to raise a dime to pay for the tuition of the Military Command Academy.
"Now, let's see what kind of situation we are about to face." Zhu Bin sat in front of the console, waved his hand to open the holographic screen, and watched the data and charts flowing down like a waterfall attentively.
After two months of non-stop monitoring of radio signals, Zhu Bin roughly understood his situation. His current location is at the bottom of the earth's eastern Pacific Ocean, more than two thousand nautical miles away from the west coast of the American continent. Because it is not a waterway, so
Almost no ships passed by. The nearest signal source was called "Hawaii", which was also a straight-line distance of two thousand nautical miles away.
Because the arrival of him and the spacecraft brought a lot of trouble to the earth, along the oblique line between 60 degrees and 15 degrees north latitude, the spacecraft debris caused a large number of collisions, causing great harm to the northeastern region of the Republic of China that was attacking at this time.
The Japanese Kwantung Army caused thousands of casualties. Subsequently, the Liaodong Peninsula, the Korean Peninsula, and Sakhalin Island were all hit by meteor showers to varying degrees.
The worst losses occurred in Japan. Not only was the "Yasukuni Shrine" bombed and the emperor frightened, but the fire caused by the meteor also burned down thousands of houses, leaving tens of thousands of people homeless and causing economic losses of hundreds of millions of dollars.
Japan, which is in a severe economic crisis, is even worse.
Zhu Bin felt no pressure and was very happy about this. It seems that the Japanese have a bad reputation in the entire interstellar federation, even more despised than the annoying pirates. They regard undeclared war and sneak attacks as their supreme
The embodiment of the art of war, regards fraud and distrust as the superiority of one's own national wisdom, does not cherish life, likes brutal massacre and abuse, has created countless appalling terrorist incidents in space exploration and war, and thinks that it is the strength of force.
Performance.
Finally, after another sneak attack on the "Pearl Harbor" spaceport, His Excellency MacArthur VIII, the five-star general of the God Alliance who couldn't bear it, used the planet destruction cannon to directly blow up their capital star, completely eradicating the so-called emperor of the eternal lineage.
When questioned by the Interstellar Federation, the Admiral’s explanation was that he used an expired and wrong map.
At the subsequent banquet, the Admiral gritted his teeth and said: "All creatures named Japan should go to hell." As we all know, he was very dissatisfied with his ancestors' original protection of these despicable guys. He should have directly used nuclear bombs to destroy these despicable guys.
The races that came out of the volcanic island were directly wiped out!
Zhu Bin was deeply convinced of this, and even drank a drink specifically for His Excellency the Admiral's actions that day - even though he was a citizen of the Dragon Alliance, a low-status and unknown trash guy.
Also affected were countries in the Americas. The tsunami caused by the impact hit the Hawaiian Islands, California, Mexico and several countries in South America. Although the waves were less than ten meters high when they arrived there, Hawaii, which was hit first, also issued a warning in time.
The alarm was raised, but huge losses were still caused.
The precarious shipbuilding and fishing industries in Southern California have suffered a huge blow. Most shipyards, fishing companies and terminals are facing bankruptcy. The most unlucky one is a small fishing village next to Los Angeles, where a large number of descendants of Chinese fishermen who smuggled into the United States live. Because of the ubiquitous
Anti-Chinese and discrimination led to them being notified in the end, and dozens of them were swept away before they could escape. The Los Angeles radio station made a special report on this, which seemed serious, but was actually gloating about their misfortune.
Zhu Bin also observed a five-minute silence for this and shed a few drops of crocodile tears for these compatriots who were most likely not related by blood. Then he decided to assume the identity of one of the missing persons "Zhu Hanchen" when he came ashore. Zhu Bin,
The character Hanchen seems pretty good!
Looking at my own situation, I am not very optimistic either.
The main body of the junk spacecraft was severely damaged, and the protective cover has lost its function. Although many cracks in the main shell have been sealed, it is determined to be completely scrapped and has no repair value. The nuclear fusion reactor is working normally and can provide basic energy, but the main thrusters are destroyed.
The most terrible thing is that the ship's hull is in the deep sea of 2,330 meters, and there are about 16.6 million tons of metal-rich rocks above it. If it cannot float within 10 years, the spacecraft will disintegrate.
"Well, it seems a bit serious!" Zhu Bin pinched his chin and frowned slightly. This is not good news. In this era of backward technology, it will be too difficult to salvage a sunken ship more than 2,000 meters deep in 10 years.
Even if it is salvaged, how can it be hidden and protected? Such a big steel monster will cause a global shock in this era! Those crazy conglomerate bosses and warlord leaders will definitely rush forward and kill themselves without hesitation.
It stole it.
"It seems that no matter what, we have to find a way to build a huge maritime force to solve this big trouble!"
Zhu Bin's eyes radiated a fiery light, full of excitement and ambition! Establish a powerful and unrivaled military force, sweep across the entire world, and become an overlord that no one dares to offend.
This is a dream that I have repeated countless times in the game. Now, it seems that I can make a real-life version?
"There's something going on!" Zhu Bin sucked back the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and his angular face flushed with excitement. He unconsciously leaned forward and stared at the scattered information found from the vast database.
, drag out all the contents of "Republic of China" and analyze them carefully.
"'Republic of China'...," Zhu Bin shook his head in frustration, "It's too weak! It doesn't even have basic heavy industry, the illiteracy rate exceeds 90%, the country is divided into warlords, and the war potential is lower than zero! How to play this?
ah?"
It's useless to complain, he has no choice. He is of Chinese descent, and his appearance, language and culture cannot be changed no matter what. What's worse is that there are only two languages left in the interstellar era, English and Chinese. Now he wants to have plastic surgery and pretend to be someone else.
It's too late.
However, the Republic of China at this time was not without its merits. It had the largest population of 450 million, a land area of more than 11 million square kilometers, rich and diverse resources and manpower, and the most important thing was that the people's minds tended to be strong and longed for independence.
, Centripetal force and cohesion have the highest plasticity, and there are a large number of passionate patriotic young people who can take advantage of it. Compared with other countries that have political stability, they are more manipulative. As long as appropriate strategies are adopted and appropriate driving force is applied, immeasurable huge potential will be unleashed.
Enough to support reaching booking goals!
"It's her!" Zhu Bin punched the operating table hard and made up his mind quickly.
The next step is to formulate a feasible operation plan. Zhu Bin should be very skilled in this. When he is bored during the long interstellar voyage, the most common thing he does is play games, real-time strategy, and chess games.
My favorite, how to develop a huge military force and build a powerful country from scratch. The rich experience of talking on paper is unmatched in the world!
To do big things, you must first have money. Zhu Bin really doesn't worry about this.
As a senior garbage man, firstly discovering valuable targets and analyzing their components are the basic means. In the past two months, he has relied on the scanning system to clearly check the surrounding environment, and used a complete robotic arm to collect a large number of
Sample comes back.
The extinct volcano the spacecraft hit was formed over 100 million years ago. A large amount of precious metals were deposited in the igneous rock on top. Each ton contains 15-20 grams of gold, about 2000 grams of silver, 10% copper and 26% zinc.
The total amount that can be mined exceeds 100 million tons. In addition, there are a large number of polymetallic nodules and crusts distributed on the surrounding seafloor at a depth of 2,000 to 5,000 meters, which are rich in manganese and nickel.
Copper, cobalt, iron, silicon, aluminum, lead, mercury, germanium and calcium, sodium, magnesium, potassium, titanium and barium, as well as cerium, platinum, phosphorus, thallium, tellurium, zirconium, tungsten, bismuth and molybdenum. Can be mined
The volume exceeds tens of billions of tons!
Metal minerals are not valuable to advanced civilizations such as the Interstellar Federation. Their space mining spacecraft can easily crush an asteroid and get hundreds of millions of tons. But for the earth's civilization in the fossil energy era, this is a real amount of wealth.
!
With money, anything is possible!
What's more, the cargo hold of the spacecraft is also loaded with two million tons of space junk. If you look carefully for those things, you will definitely find a lot of good things that will be of great use in this era!
"Heaven will never destroy Cao!" Zhu Bin looked up to the sky and smiled. His movements sounded a bit like a villain's triumph.
A month later, a huge light group was launched from the seabed of more than 2,000 meters toward the sea surface due north. A few days later, the light group surfaced on the waterway from San Francisco to Pearl Harbor. After gradually dissipating,
A container that was forty feet long was revealed.
Zhu Bin, wearing seemingly shabby clothes, sat precariously at the top, shouting at the top of his lungs at the slowly approaching ship that was emitting black smoke: "Help! Help!"
Chapter completed!
