Vol 2 Chapter 366: , Smelting Asteroids

"Five thousand yuan is the price of export. We sell three trillion yuan to you, and I always take care of ourselves first."

"Three trillion yuan is too expensive. I heard that Ji Rong sold one for only 2.5 trillion yuan. Can they also sell one to me at this price?"

"Whoever said, there is no such thing at all. You also know that my cost is 2 trillion yuan. Selling 3 trillion yuan is already a price of conscience. We are all descendants of Yan and Huang. If it's an outsider, five trillion yuan, a penny less, I won't sell it. "

"Brother Qin, I know that you have always taken care of yourself, but this price is too expensive, can you give it a little more discount, if 2.5 trillion, I will place an order with you now."

"It really isn't working, brother, I have to eat too. You also know the initial R & D and investment. Where is such a large space factory, the investment is over 10 trillion yuan. It was originally from you. There are a lot of custom parts here, and you should make a lot of money here. "

"I still have to upgrade in this later period, and also continue to develop more powerful spacecraft. Without 3 trillion yuan, I would not be able to sustain it."

"3 trillion yuan is too expensive, Brother Qin, we are all old friends, and the cooperation is not once or twice, so it's cheaper."

"There is really no way, 3 trillion is the least expensive."

"..."

In Qin Yi's office, Qin Yi hung up the call, but also couldn't help shaking his head. Since the price of a five trillion won ship was passed, Qin Yi has received many calls every day, both domestically and abroad. They all came to inquire about the price of the spacecraft, so Qin Yi was too busy.

老板 "Boss, the space smelter has been built and can be put into use. Would you like to take a look in space together?"

I just finished hanging up a call, and I received a new message here with my virtual watch. The news came from Zhang Jian. He was in charge of the space smelter during this time.

"Either go to space and relax."

Qin Yi thought for a while, or prepared to go to space.

In the outer space of the earth, a huge space factory stands quietly in the void. This space factory is completely different from the Dragon Nest space factory.

The overall shape of the Nine Dragons Nest Space Factory looks like a giant sea urchin. The shape of this space smelter looks like a giant satellite signal receiving pot.

A huge pot cover with an area of ​​more than 10 square kilometers looks like the most common solar power station in space, except that the solar power station is tiled directly, and this is a circular structure.

Beneath the huge pot lid is the chief commander of the space smelting plant. At this time, Qin Yi just arrived at the space smelting plant in an anti-gravity spacecraft.

"Boss, you have just arrived, our smelting is about to begin."

When Zhang Jian saw Qin Yi coming, a smile appeared on his face, then he pointed to the void outside and said.

Qin Yi followed the direction and saw that the Qinglong spacecraft dragged the recovered asteroid slowly to the space smelting factory. At this time, it was very close and close.

It didn't take long for the asteroid to be dragged by the Qinglong spacecraft into a void in the middle of the pot lid of the space smelter. The speed and direction were the same between the two, so it seemed as if it was still at that. Location above average.

The Qinglong spacecraft loosened its carbon fiber rope and slowly flew away. It was about to set sail again for the asteroid belt to mine asteroids.

"Boss, you can start."

The asteroid is already in place. Zhang Jian is very excited. The entire space smelting plant is the same for all scientists and engineers. At the same time, because this time for the first time in human history, steel was smelted in space, so News reporters from TV stations and so on came to film and report.

"Well, let's get started."

Qin Yi nodded and ordered.

With Qin Yi's order, the entire space smelter began to operate.

The space smelting plant is completely different from the traditional smelting plant. The traditional smelting plant mainly relies on coal or electric furnaces to smelt steel. However, this is obviously unrealistic in space. The space smelting plant uses sunlight.

The huge pot lid is not a real pot lid. It is similar to a space solar power station. It is actually composed of solar panels, but in addition to these solar panels, it also has another function. Used to reflect sunlight.

We all know that light is very special. It can infinitely converge. One light or two lights can't see the difference when they are aggregated. But when 10,000 lights and one million lights are gathered together, huge energy will converge. Together, it produces a temperature that is scarce enough to smelt steel.

I saw the huge pot lid here, the upper side of the solar panel began to slowly adjust the angle, each side of the solar panel here is usually used to generate electricity, when the need to smelt steel, the mode change, it will become a mirror It does not absorb light and heat directly, but reflects light and heat.

Each mirror is controlled by a computer. The computer automatically calculates the position of each mirror, and then adjusts the angle individually to reflect the sunlight onto the asteroid.

Qin Yi watched the monitoring picture intently, while the mirror was continuously adjusted slowly, and the rays of light began to converge on the asteroid.

At the beginning, I didn't feel anything, but as more and more light came together, the location of the asteroid began to brighten here.

区域 This area is getting brighter and brighter, and gradually becomes bright and dazzling in the back. At the same time, as the light that gathers is more and more, the temperature above the asteroid also starts to rise sharply.

"200 degrees ~"

"500 degrees ~"

"1000 degrees ~"

Soon, the temperature on the asteroid rose to thousands of degrees, and the surface of the asteroid began to slowly show signs of melting.

However, the light from the polymerization still continues to increase, becoming more dazzling, and the temperature is rising rapidly, and it quickly rises to a high temperature of more than 2000 degrees.

At such high temperatures, the entire asteroid is rapidly melting, and a mass of liquid appears on the surface, all of which are liquids after the metal melts.

However, because there is no gravity in space, these liquids do not flow, but exist in the form of a sphere. As the amount of molten iron increases, the water balloon slowly grows larger.

"It's fast ~"

Everyone carefully watched this miraculous scene in space. The asteroid with a mass of 150 million tons was melting at a rate that was visible to the naked eye.

The asteroid was originally irregular in shape, but as it melted more and more, it gradually turned into a fiery red ball. The outside was completely liquefied iron, and the inside was the part that had not completely melted.

Only a few hours have passed, and the entire asteroid has completely melted, completely turning into a red ball with a diameter of several hundred meters, suspended quietly in the void.

"Add other metals ~"

Zhang Jian has been watching various data until the asteroid has completely melted into a liquid sphere. The first step in smelting the asteroid has been completed, and the next step should be taken.

Soon, a robotic arm came to the red ball next to the small metal blocks. These metal blocks were all refined pure metals, such as metal manganese, metal tungsten, etc., used to smelt alloys. Of other metal blocks.

Others are used to remove chemical reaction materials from magazines in steel. These materials quickly and completely melt into liquid spheres under the irradiation of polymerization light.

Then these liquid are slowly integrated into the huge red and white dazzling liquid balls, and then there is a robotic arm with a stick-like thing to stir the fused liquid balls, so that these liquids can be more fully For fusion.

The polymerization light side is also starting to adjust, so that the light shining on the huge liquid ball becomes unevenly distributed. In some places, there is more polymerized light, and the temperature becomes higher. In some places, there is less polymerized light and the temperature. Just lower.

温度 The temperature of different parts of the liquid ball is different ~ EbookFREE.me ~ According to the characteristics of the liquid, the low temperature liquid will flow to the high temperature liquid, which will balance the overall temperature.

流动 This flow is actually the same as the warm currents and ocean currents in the oceans on the earth. The two poles of the earth are less heated and the temperature is lower. The temperature of the seawater is also lower.

So high-temperature seawater will flow to the equatorial area as a cold current, while low-latitude water will flow to the high-temperature area as a warm current.

At this time, this huge white dazzling metallic liquid ball is also the same. As the temperature difference changes, the interior also starts to flow continuously. Under this flow, the added things are more fully integrated, and the The magazine is eliminated, and the smelted steel can also achieve the desired effect more perfectly.

The whole fusion process lasted for several hours, until all the materials were fully fused together, and turned into a huge white dazzling liquid ball.

Plutonium is very fast, and 150 million tons of steel can be smelted in just a few hours. If this speed is placed on the earth, it is hard to imagine.

We need to know that the annual steel output of ArcelorMittal, the world's largest steel company, has just reached about 100 million tons.

In less than half a day now, 150 million tons of steel have been trained. This speed is incredible.
