Chapter 1372: Incorporated into Tianyuan, incredible mineral reserves
!
If there are other better options, Sumo is actually unwilling to rely on facial recognition to achieve his goal.
But there is no way. At this stage, no other method can achieve the same effect as facial brushing, or even half of the effect of facial brushing.
At this moment, standing on the deck, he looked down at the large crowds gathered at the pier and landing point below.
Compared with the survivors who recently joined Tianyuan, the mental outlook of the survivors here is obviously much better.
Perhaps because the Mine Island Alliance has entered a state of peaceful development ahead of schedule, the eyes of many people are shining with love for life, expectations for the future, and the unique perseverance of human beings in difficult situations.
If it were not for the intrusion of disasters and other external factors, given time, the Mineral Island Alliance would have developed into a gathering place for millions of people.
Of course, the current results seem to be about the same.
After a brief silence, the crowd of thousands gathered suddenly erupted into a tremor like a mountain roar and a tsunami, and all kinds of incomprehensible shouts were loudly heard.
Barford was almost pushed over by the surging sound behind him, and his whole head was confused.
So, is that the human God Su?
He couldn't believe his eyes, or he simply didn't believe that he could meet the legendary human Su Shen on such an ordinary and ordinary afternoon.
How do you describe this feeling?
It's like a group of people living in a slum. Unfortunately, a fire broke out yesterday and destroyed most of everyone's belongings.
Just when everyone was still worried about how to survive tomorrow, they suddenly picked up an unclaimed lottery ticket on the ground.
I took it to a lottery shop and asked, and it turned out to be five million!
"Isn't this a dream? Isn't this what I'm dreaming about?"
Barford was like a piece of seaweed, swaying back and forth completely caught in the crowd.
Dani Koeman, who was standing with him, had a similar reaction and completely lost the ability to think.
As for the defense team responsible for maintaining order?
It can only be said that they are not as good as those ordinary survivors who scream excitedly.
At the moment when Somo's figure appeared on the bow of the ship, Hu Shulin, who had remained calm in the crowd, had a look of disbelief in his eyes. He stood there blankly, just looking up at the huge ship.
ship, I don’t know what I’m thinking about.
Fate seemed to have played a big joke on them.
Just when everyone was full of longing and looking forward to the steady development of the alliance and moving towards a more prosperous tomorrow, the sudden war almost destroyed their dreams.
A war broke out between the six major islands, leaving only a single seedling on Tiantie Island.
Hu Shulin asked himself, he knew that he could not shoulder the important task of commanding the defense forces of the entire Mine Island Alliance.
There are more than 100,000 miners here, and there are large tracts of high-value exposed minerals, which are undoubtedly attractive fat in the eyes of those gathering outside.
What's more, a powerful force like the Green River Territory is still watching covetously.
Amid such internal and external troubles, the only thing they can rely on is this mysterious outsider.
In fact, Hu Shulin had already thought about it. If these outsiders could not solve the covetousness of other gathering places, then he would simply persuade Sun Guangmin to take his people and leave the Mine Island Alliance directly.
After all, life is obviously more important than the returns that are completely unequal to risks.
However, now, those mental activities of his seem to be a bit too much.
Is Su Shen here?
Has his Tianyuan territory arrived?
The thoughts in Hu Shulin's mind exploded, and all kinds of complex emotions were completely intertwined.
He looked up at where Sun Guangmin was standing, and saw that this elegant manager was not much better. He kept mumbling something as if he was possessed.
It took a long time, until the command ship began to dock, and Sun Guangmin finally accepted that he had seen something.
"So you are from"
He turned his head, looked at Spicy Iron Hammer with a complicated expression, and rubbed his face vigorously with his dusty right hand.
He made many guesses about the ownership of this fleet and the origins of these outsiders.
He had compared and guessed all the gathering places with tens of millions of levels in the Black Island Alliance and the Machine Kingdom one by one.
He secretly speculated in his heart about the Dragon Flag, the Golden Eagle, the Northern Alliance, and the Yu San Family with a level of over 100 million, but he was not sure.
However, among all his guesses, the only one he never dared to imagine was Tian Yuan.
The mysterious territory established by the human God Su has always shrouded everyone's minds like a layer of mist.
Tianyuan's name is so mysterious that it is often mentioned on the world channel, but there is very little news about it.
Just like their Black Island Alliance, it restricts ordinary people's ability to communicate with the outside world, resulting in no information being able to flow out.
The happiness came a little too suddenly, and now he still can't believe that it all really happened.
"Yes, we are from Tianyuan, and Sumo is our lord."
Spicy Iron Hammer smiled apologetically: "I guess now Lord Sun can understand our difficulties. Sometimes it's not that we deliberately hide our identities, but that it will indeed cause a lot of unnecessary trouble after being exposed."
"Understand, how could I not understand?"
Sun Guangmin smiled bitterly and shook his head. Just looking at the enthusiastic crowd on the pier now, you can know Tianyuan's influence.
It can be said that if Spicy Iron Hammer comes under the banner of Tianyuan, he can directly pack up the entire Mine Island Alliance on the spot without any unnecessary nonsense.
Neither Encobat nor Hua Qingyun, including the merciless Wu Jiahao, would say no.
Of course, this result is also obvious.
For a group of survivors of worrisome quality to join Su Shen's territory so easily is like laying a hidden mine.
Although it won't have any impact now, there will always be a day when it explodes.
Sun Guangmin silently calculated in his mind that the current result seems to be the best result, and no one who remains will need to undergo a second cleaning.
Moreover, after more than half a year of development, the Mine Island Alliance already has a relatively mature mining system.
The only difficult thing is how to transfer and sell the mined ore in a reasonable and efficient manner, and then reinvest the proceeds from the sales into the development of the alliance to form a cycle.
Now it's fine, now that it has merged under the command of the human Su Shen, all problems will be solved.
The Mineral Island Alliance no longer has to worry about its own development, and it is far better than previously expected.
And he is the only surviving manager in the alliance.
“Never had such a great start!”
Sun Guangmin, who finally came to his senses, was so excited that he couldn't help himself, but this was not the time for him to vent. The crowd at the pier below was clearly showing signs of getting out of control.
"Don't worry, everyone, I'll go and maintain order right now!"
Sun Guangmin, who rolled up his sleeves and pulled out the pistol from his waist, abandoned his usual elegance and rushed into the crowd with a shout.
Mala Tiechui stared at the retreating figure in astonishment, feeling completely unfamiliar.
But after turning around and looking at the apocalyptic madman, the two of them laughed in understanding.
Perhaps, this is why the Tianyuan Territory named its first gathering place ‘Hope’.
It took nearly an hour to evacuate the surrounding crowd.
After the survivors on the dock got over their excitement, they were very cooperative and left immediately after hearing the order.
However, it was the departure of these people that led to the fact that even in the evening, there were still survivors arriving by boat from the six islands, all of them screaming and wanting to see the dignity of the human God Su.
Of course, the members of the escort team could not violently drive these people back. They could only explain over and over again that Su Shen would meet everyone one by one in the next few days, and the Mine Island Alliance would soon be included in Tianyuan's alliance after negotiations between Sun Guangmin and Su Shen.
within the sphere of influence.
Wait, you said negotiation?
A group of survivors were very dissatisfied with this and even broke out into a large-scale riot protest.
Tens of thousands of people gathered near the shore and shouted. In their view, being able to join Tianyuan was already an unimaginable good thing, so what was the point of negotiating?
The protest was so loud that it could still be heard clearly even from a conference room nearly two kilometers away.
"So, what do we need to negotiate?"
Sun Guangmin looked up from time to time, his face flushed, and he felt numb when he heard the protests outside.
Good guys, you are protesting, and I really want to protest too!
While they were maintaining order and evacuating the crowd, Sumo stayed behind to meet at night to negotiate the inclusion of the Mining Island Alliance into Tianyuan's order, and then directly took people on guerrilla boats to inspect the situation on the large and small mining islands.
This also resulted in a group of people who could only stay in this conference room and silently endure the "artillery fire" bombardment from the outside world.
Lin Jiafeng, who was on the side responsible for sorting out production materials, was even guessing that if the alliance's merger with Tianyuan could not be resolved tonight, it would be possible for hundreds of thousands of angry miners to overthrow Tiantie Island.
At this moment, there was a sudden burst of footsteps outside the door of the conference room.
A few seconds later, Hu Shulin's deep voice was heard outside: "Lord Su, please come this way!"
It’s finally here!
The dozen or so people in the room who were sorting information suddenly became excited. They all stood up and looked up at the half-open door.
It’s not about being nervous, but more about anticipation.
After all, whether the survivors saw it in the live broadcast or learned about it through various channels, this human God Su had already been passed down by word of mouth among the survivors and became a legend.
The door opened and Hu Shulin walked in first, with a respectful look on his face.
Then a figure appeared in everyone's sight, and that familiar face took everyone's breath away.
Although he was a bit too young, his calm and unhurried temperament seemed to make the whole world focus on him.
"Sorry to keep you waiting for so long."
Sumo nodded gently, walked into the conference room slowly, and locked his eyes on Sun Guangmin.
"This should be Lord Sun, right?"
"It's me, Lord Su, hello," Sun Guangmin said nervously, but his overall performance was neither humble nor overbearing.
Su Mo cast an approving look and simply took over the arrangements and said: "Just find a place to sit, don't be nervous."
After an afternoon of inspection, Sumo had a rough understanding of the situation in the Mineral Island Alliance.
It is no exaggeration to say that the mineral reserves here have reached an incredible level. Just the basic minerals that can be mined on the ground are enough to renovate the entire Qinggang City five times.
And if you add in those that can be detected immediately underground, not to mention five times, ten times will be enough.
This is outrageous.
Among all kinds of information collected from the future ruins, Sumo has never seen any records recording where there are such mineral reserves.
Is it possible that the game, in order to save trouble, expanded the number of minerals in equal proportion when expanding the area of the new continent?
"Let's talk about the first thing first."
When everyone was seated, Sumo was not polite and continued speaking in a gentle tone.
"After tonight, the Mine Island Alliance will officially be merged into the sphere of influence of Tianyuan Territory. Is that okay?"
Sun Guangmin was stunned for a moment, then nodded sharply and immediately stood up and responded.
"There is no problem at all, Lord Su. You must not know how long we have been waiting for this day. Not only me, but everyone is willing to cooperate unconditionally with any plan of the Tianyuan Territory. In fact, if I dare to say no now, what will happen outside?
Those people would definitely rush in and tear me apart right away!”
"Haha, I do believe that."
Sumo smiled and nodded. Before returning, he wandered around the dock for a while. There were protesting crowds everywhere.
Now that a consensus has been reached, not only Sun Guangmin but also everyone else present will be able to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Then, the second thing."
"The fleet you are seeing now is the advance fleet we sent to the Southern Fire Territory. The main purpose is to explore the current situation in the Southern Fire Territory. The construction location of the Tianyuan Territory is in the central plate, which is at least nearly 10,000 kilometers away from here, so
It will definitely not be able to help the mining island develop rapidly in a short period of time, which means that you still need to work hard on your own."
The time it takes to ship goods by water is about a month. Once the shipyard has iterated the cargo ship structure twice more, the ship is faster and the ship is familiar with the route, the time can be reduced by three to five days at most.
This is a limitation of water transportation, which is destined to fail to achieve a balance between speed and efficiency.
As for more efficient air transportation, it is indeed difficult to achieve Tianyuan's current development speed. Without special opportunities, it will be difficult to popularize air transportation even in the next few years.
And this means that even though Mine Island has joined Tianyuan, it will not enjoy much development dividends.
At most, it can be regarded as having a trading partner that can absorb all the mineral mining volume.
Sun Guangmin thought for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up and he said with some uncertainty.
"Then you mean that the mining island can have some autonomy?"
"Of course, the mining island has a high degree of autonomy. Whether it is development direction or external expansion, Tianyuan will not impose too many restrictions, and will try its best to support it in terms of resources." Sumo glanced at Hu Shulin and then turned around.
He looked at Sun Guangmin and continued:
"Actually, before I came here, I planned to appoint people from the territory to manage the mining island. This would give me more peace of mind and prevent unexpected situations from happening.
But when Captain Hu took me to visit the surrounding mining islands in the afternoon, I learned a lot from him. As far as the mining islands are concerned, you are indeed a suitable manager, so I am willing to give you a chance to prove yourself.
Continue to serve as the manager of the mining island, and be responsible for the development plan of the Tianyuan Territory in the Southern Fire Territory in the future."
"I?"
Sun Guangmin stood up stupidly, pointed at himself, and opened his mouth in astonishment.
