Chapter 1722 On the Knowledge and Interest of Gem Mines
"That's right!" The short-haired woman clapped her hands and said excitedly, "I think this direction is definitely right!"
The bald man thought seriously for a moment and then nodded, "I can't rule out this possibility."
"It's hard to know what Area 019 looked like a hundred years ago, but it was definitely not as developed as it is now. If something happens to a mining company, there must be some way to cover it up."
"but……"
"It's just a violation." Xu Huo said: "If Master Suolan's purpose is this, she doesn't have to wait until she dies a hundred years later to do it."
"Whether it's investigating the cause of her father's death or the possible conspiracy, she can do it while she's still alive with her influence."
"Perhaps the backend of the mining company is too strong. It is impossible for her to succeed on her own. Even if it is made public, she cannot get evidence. She can only use this method. Even if she does not succeed in the end, it is still good to cause trouble for Tiantianle."
The woman immediately said, "And it's hard to say whether the players who came to Dingdinghua Town to kill people were sent by Tian Tianle."
Xu Huo was slightly silent. Although he did not think that the painting was in the hands of Tiantianle Company, he agreed with the general direction, so he said: "I plan to go around the mining area first, what about you?"
The bald man had already been there. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "I'm going to Tiantianle."
The girl with the short hair coincided with him.
"I wish you good luck." Xu Huo said nothing, took out his props, left Tintinhua Town, and headed straight to the city where the mining area is located.
The two places were relatively far apart, and he arrived after it was completely dark. However, the mining area belonged to Tiantianle and no one other than employees was allowed to enter.
It's not easy to get in. Not only are there robots patrolling the perimeter, but there are also flight instruments monitoring the sky. Players nearby will be warned just by approaching.
Xu Huo temporarily bought a set of camouflage suits specifically for sky sensing instruments on Jixin Terminal, opened the space channel, and entered the mountain avoiding the robot.
This area of the mountain is under the Tiantianle Mining Group. Some mines have been closed, and some are still in operation. There are fewer patrol robots in the closed areas, but surveillance equipment is still installed in many places, making it impossible to prevent.
These instruments cannot be destroyed, otherwise the surrounding robots will rush to support you as soon as possible.
Xu Huo sat on the canopy of a big tree for a while and then he could clearly see the location of the surveillance equipment around him. It was impossible for the sparse surveillance equipment to cover every corner, not to mention that even if the surveillance equipment was interleaved, a sudden blow of wind would blow in the woods.
It is normal for a gust of wind or a small animal to touch the monitoring equipment.
In this way, it took him a while to complete the round of several closed hills.
Two of the mountains collapsed, and metal structures were erected outside to help stabilize them. They are still there today. Judging from the location, they should be the place where Solan's father died as rumored on the Jixin Terminal.
However, Solan has never been to this place, let alone verified the specific location. The people involved in the rescue at the time could not tell where it was. Solan's father was not the only one dug out of the mountain. He was notified until the identity was finally confirmed.
parents and wife.
The nearby mines can still be entered, but they have the same signs of repairs and repairs as in the mines near Tindinghua Town, and it can be seen that some of the earliest support materials used were not very good.
While walking along the heavily dusted mine tunnel, Xu Huo kept letting go of his mental strength to look deeper. He didn't find any valuable clues, but he did find several sealed underground cracks. Judging from the traces of the cracks,
It's been some years.
No wonder an accident is going to happen. Such a big crack can appear in the ground, which proves that this mountain is not stable. No one can predict what changes will occur with just a slight earthquake.
Xu Huo reached out and touched the metal plate sealing the crack. The people in District 019 did not seal the cross section of the crack for the convenience of mining, but built a movable wall with metal plates next to it, just to block the crack.
That's all.
After a brief pause, he walked to several other mine tunnels and found that this crack evenly penetrated the bottom of the mine. Several main mine tunnels were in contact with it, and there were more than 100 areas covered with metal plates.
One or two places.
Xu Huo refused to comment on this "money rather than life" behavior. He took a piece of rock from different depths of the crack and installed it before exiting the mine.
The mountains and forests outside are dark. Halfway across the mountain, you can still see the light coming from the top of the mountain in front of you. If you go over there, you should see a mine that is still being mined. It could have been dug for more than a hundred years. This mountain should have been hollowed out long ago.
That’s right—unless everything buried under the ground is filled with gems.
It was difficult to enter the mine that was being mined, but Xu Huo walked around and saw the robot workshop in a relatively nearby location.
The robot workshop is a place for robots to recharge and change shifts. Now mining does not require too many people, so the only people living here are robot maintenance personnel and emergency staff. They have already rested at this time, but the open Jixin terminal has not been closed.
, which contains the content of the next work cycle that has been set, which happens to be the replacement of the mine tunnel for centralized mining, so Xu Huo also saw the location of the crack marked on the map.
This crack was adjacent to the closed mine and was parallel to the one he had just seen. Looking at the working diagram, it seemed that the ore was actually dug out of these cracks.
In addition to the high accident rate, this situation makes everyone praise these gem mines for being "informed and knowledgeable".
After checking the situation nearby, Xu Huo took a watch terminal while leaving.
This watch terminal is already open, and you can view the information without authentication.
However, what this emergency worker only dealt with was minor collapses, instability of the mine, and confusion in robot instructions. It was all tedious work and nothing of much value. As for the quality of the gems that could be mined from the gem mine and the occasional
"Business secrets" such as exotic gemstones of particularly high purity and naturally formed shapes are not within the scope of his needs.
What's interesting is that some fragmentary gems are naturally like human teeth. They can be used after picking them out and modifying them a little. Some people with strange hobbies like to use gems to create dolls, and the skeleton is also part of the customization.
Of course, this kind of natural one is very rare, and more are factory customized.
According to the information in the terminal, Xu Huo went to another mining area not far from here. Only one-third of this mining area belonged to Tiantianle, and the other two-thirds belonged to three groups. However, when he went in and took a look, he was mined.
The completed mines all have the same ground cracks underneath them.
Are all the mines in Area 019 based on this kind of ground fissure?
