My Head of the Huaxia Expeditionary Force

Chapter 496 The Mining Area That Makes People Headache

All these things came down, and a lot of points were almost exhausted. Now Liao Mingyu has less than [-] points in his hands, as if he had just enjoyed a dream of getting rich overnight and suddenly returned to his original form.

But all of this is worth it. The benefits brought by the base area can give the troops a qualitative leap. This is something that no amount of points can buy.

However, there is good news in the past two days. The system scanned the local geological structure by manipulating the main control room, and found an iron ore resource here. Ton, only ten kilometers away from the main base.

Although there is only a small vein, it is a rare iron-rich ore. The iron content of its iron-containing quartz stone is as high as 60.00%, and it can be mined in the open pit.

This is a major discovery. You must know that iron ore deposits are generally accompanied by ore veins, such as titanium, cobalt, copper, nickel, lead-zinc, tin, molybdenum, aluminum, etc. If you are lucky, there may be rare earths. Wouldn't it solve the urgent need?

According to the system calculation, due to the extremely high iron content in this mining area, the mined iron ore can be exchanged for about 200 points per ton. If other rare minerals can be found, the income should be higher.

Although the exchange rate is not high, the mining base station built by the system can guarantee a monthly output of 1000-1500 tons. This is not counting other rare minerals, which is equivalent to earning about 20-25 points for Liao Mingyu in a month.

Excited, Liao immediately started to arrange the mining work, planning to build the mining base station and lay the transportation route first, but when he saw the points required for the base station construction, the flame that had just ignited in his heart was extinguished in an instant.

"20 points? How can a broken mining area be so expensive!? Master System, aren't you cheating me?" Liao Mingyu wanted to cry but could only roar in his heart.

"Ding... the host should not underestimate the mining base station, which contains dozens of mining vehicles, bulldozers, large cone crushers, small jaw crushers, segmental conveyors, and other equipment, and will also be equipped with a hundred Miners, and the host can increase the number of miners and mining vehicles by itself, thereby increasing the amount of mining." The system immediately explained.

"What do you mean? What the hell is self-increasing?" Liao Mingyu was puzzled.

"Ding... In layman's terms, the host can arrange normal humans to work in the mining area, increase the number of mining workers and vehicles, and then achieve the purpose of increasing production. Moreover, base workers and equipment can be exchanged for points, and the future expansion is very considerable." The system explained again.

Liao Mingyu basically understands what he said, that is to say, he can exchange for more absenteeism to work, increase production and efficiency, then the monthly production may be more than [-] tons by then.

It is even possible to bring those thousands of captive devils to work. Anyway, free labor is not in vain, and food is wasted for nothing in the concentration camps. It is really better to let them go to the mining area for labor reform.

"The system master... can I apply for a loan? I have less than [-] yuan in my hand, and I can't build it if I want to. Why don't you help me with it first, and I'll pay it back when the mining business starts. At worst, I'll pay some interest..." Liao Mingyu pleaded bitterly with a shy face.

"Ding... Do you think I'm a bank here? You want to prostitute me for nothing? Thank you for thinking it out... Stop! I know what you want to say, and to tell you the truth, there is no more reserve energy in the system , even if you kill Hirohito and Mustache right now, I won’t be able to reward you with points.”

Originally, Liao Mingyu wanted to launch a few more battles to fight the little devils in the south, and when he won, he would naturally be rewarded with points, but the system's answer completely blocked his last hope.

"Then what the hell do you think we should do? Now we don't give rewards for beating devils, and we can't build a mining station. I only have more than 1 left. Isn't this just waiting to die?"

In fact, since the completion of the main base, the system has converted all its remaining energy into points for Liao Mingyu to use. In the future, no matter whether he wins or loses in a war, no points will be awarded. Only by continuously obtaining resources and converting energy can he continue to obtain construction and production. Credits required.

So now even the system itself can't get any points, or it doesn't have the extra energy to carry out the conversion. If it doesn't get resource energy replenishment for a long time, the base will be paralyzed, and the system will even enter a dormant state risks of.

"Ding... There must be a way. A base miner earns 200 points, a hand-held crusher 15, trolley 2... Without the help of trucks, large equipment and conveyor belts, the monthly output of each worker is about 3 tons. The host can exchange some Solo mining rigs and miners, doing a small amount of mining work first."

The system's answer made Liao Mingyu fall into deep thought. Although the output is a little less, it's better than nothing. After thinking about it, there is no other better way, so he can only do this. After a while, he immediately made a decision: "Okay! Then exchange 50 miners first, and 50 sets of corresponding equipment, and another 30 ten-wheel heavy trucks, um... let’s do this first.”

This set cost more than 7000, and there are not many points left in the end. However, according to normal data, 50 miners can bring in 3 points per month. At least the money is not wasted, etc. When the points slowly come up, build the base station directly, and then you can sit and collect money.

Liao Mingyu, who was sitting in front of the console, frowned and tapped the table with his fingers. After thinking about it, he still felt that this speed was a bit slow. If this continues, it will take more than six months to get to 20?By that time, the Yankees have finished fighting Iwo Jima, and they haven't built the mining station yet. Isn't this the end of the calf?

No, it can't be like this...

Liao Mingyu couldn't sit still anymore, he stood up abruptly, and strode out.

An ordinary office above the underground main control room. There are several high-power radio stations here. As soon as you enter the door, you can hear the sound of the telegram. Seven or eight communication soldiers are wearing headphones and working.

"Jun seat?"

When Ding Xiaoer saw Liao Mingyu coming in, he hurried up to say hello. There were few people now. As the latter's adjutant, he was also in charge of the daily affairs of the communications department, so he was extremely busy.

"Immediately send a report to Long Wenwen and ask him to bring me the more than 1000 captives in the Mandalay concentration camp as quickly as possible. There are also those local aborigines who are doing nothing, saying that they can now provide them with job opportunities, including Food and lodging are included, and wages are also paid.”

Liao Mingyu didn't talk nonsense, and gave the order bluntly and seriously:

"In addition, tell me to die, whether it's coaxing or deceiving, or coercive measures, no matter what method I use, I must ask him to bring at least [-] laborers here within half a month, and there must be no mistakes!"
