At eight o'clock the next day, Zhou Huaide arrived at Kyoto Airport!

Last night they only extracted 10 grams of californium, leaving 990 grams missing before it could be used in controllable nuclear fusion equipment.

He knew that Jiang Fan was on the moon, so he came to No. 1 specifically today, hoping to contact Jiang Fan through No. 1's settings and inquire about the specific situation.

On his way here, Zhou Huaide had been pondering over the stone that contained the material.

Reason told him that Jiang Fan would never have such a stone again.

But he still held on to illusions and hoped for a miracle.

After he contacted No. 1, he came directly to No. 1’s office!

At this time, No. 1 was already waiting for him in the office.

As soon as Zhou Huaide entered the office, No. 1 stood up quickly and asked.

"Xiao Zhou, how are you?"

"Why!"

Zhou Huaide sighed helplessly.

"The stone Jiang Fan gave you didn't contain the californium substance?"

Number 1 asked.

"Yes, there is, but from a stone weighing fifteen kilograms, we have only extracted 10 grams of material. And our controllable nuclear fusion device requires at least 1,000 grams."

When No. 1 heard Zhou Huaide say this, he frowned slightly after getting over his excitement.

They were happy that they had finally found the material, but they were worried that only 10 grams of it could be extracted from such a large stone.

If you want to extract 1000 grams, don't you need at least a very large piece of californium stone?

"On the 1st, I came here just to connect with Jiang Fan and ask if there is no such stone on the moon?"

Number One shook his head.

"Yesterday Jiang Fan told me that this stone was the only one they discovered accidentally on the moon."

"Hey! What should I do?"

Zhou Huaide had a sad look on his face. He had never discovered the californium substance before, and he was full of expectations.

But now that he has discovered the rare matter, it makes him extremely melancholy.

This small amount of californium material is simply not enough for them to use.

"How about this? You come to the equipment room with me, and we can connect with Jiang Fan and ask about the situation?"

"good!"

Then No. 1 and Zhou Huaide came to the equipment room.

About ten minutes later, they established a video connection with Jiang Fan.

When Jiang Fan saw Zhou Huaide in the video, he suddenly became excited.

"Uncle Zhou, has the substance I extracted from the stone I gave you been refined?"

Zhou Huaide replied helplessly.

"It was proposed, but it's only 10 grams!"

"Only 10 grams are extracted?"

Jiang Fan was surprised.

You must know that the dark red stone, although only the size of a palm, weighs a full 15 kilograms because of its very high density.

However, only 10 grams of the californium substance was extracted.

"Yes, Xiaofan, we refined it over and over again many times, and finally only got 10 grams of californium substance!"

Zhou Huaide said.

Jiang Fan knew that the controllable nuclear fusion device required 1,000 grams of californium material, which was simply not enough.

Moreover, these are only the materials needed for a controllable nuclear fusion device. In the future, the Dragon Kingdom may apply controllable nuclear fusion to various fields.

More materials will be needed.

"Xiaofan, is there such a stone on the moon?"

Zhou Huaide asked.

"We have been collecting lunar ores for a year and a half, but we only found this piece."

Jiang Fan said helplessly.

Afterwards, the video call fell into silence.

Now they have just seen hope, but they have fallen into despair.

It was like God had played a big joke on them.

At first, they all thought that with this stone, the Dragon Kingdom could definitely study the first controllable nuclear fusion, but the results were completely different from what they thought.

Finally, Jiang Fan spoke.

"Let's do this. During this period, I will ask our Dragon Kingdom's scientific researchers on the moon to conduct an investigation on the moon."

"Maybe it's really possible to find a stone like this again."

"Although we only obtained 10 grams of californium material this time, we know the existence of californium after all."

No. 1 and Zhou Huaide both nodded in response.

"Well, Xiaofan is right. This kind of material has already appeared on the moon. Even if it is not a material on the moon, we can be sure that it exists in the universe!"

"As long as we keep looking, we will find it one day."

"That's right!"

The three of them immediately regained their confidence.

Jiang Fan discussed with No. 1 and Zhou Huaide for a while, then closed the video.

Jiang Fan then called over the leaders of the scientific research staff, Guo Lei and Xia Xiaoyu.

He first asked them to sign a confidentiality agreement, and then told them the importance of the stone.

When they heard Jiang Fan's story, they were all shocked!

Especially Xia Xiaoyu, she opened her mouth in shock!

"I...the stone I found is the material for the controllable nuclear fusion device?"

"Yes!"

Jiang Fan replied.

"this……"

"this……"

Xia Xiaoyu stuttered in shock.

Only then did she remember why Jiang Fan was so cautious when he picked up the stone.

It turns out that this is something more precious than gold.

Xia Xiaoyu was a little scared when she thought of throwing it away carelessly.

What if I break that stone?

"You can't tell anyone that this stone is a controllable nuclear fusion material!"

"We know!"

Guo Lei and Xia Xiaoyu both promised.

"In the next time, all of your scientific researchers on the moon will go out to look for this kind of stone."

"Xiao Yu, you know the appearance characteristics of this stone. It's up to you to tell everyone then. You will be responsible for the identification of this task!"

"..."

Jiang Fan then gave them a series of tasks.

Guo Lei and Xia Xiaoyu listened very carefully.

They are very aware of the importance of this matter to the Dragon Kingdom. If they really develop controllable nuclear fusion, the entire Dragon Kingdom's technology will undergo earth-shaking changes.

"There are so many specific things! From today on, Guo Lei, you will be responsible for leading the scientific researchers to search for stones."

"yes!"

After Guo Lei, Xia Xiaoyu and Jiang Fan came out of the command room.

Guo Lei called a meeting with all scientific researchers and explained the situation to everyone.

But he only said that this ore was very useful to the Dragon Kingdom, and did not tell them where it was used.
