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, "This possibility cannot be ruled out."
“It’s hard to know what Area 019 was 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 of the law." Xu Huo said: "If this is Master Suolan''s purpose, she doesn''t have to wait until she dies in a hundred years 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 given 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 can''t get evidence. She can only use this method. Even if she does not succeed in the end, it would be better 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 slight hesitation, he said, "I''m going to Tiantianle."
The girl with an inch head coincides 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 was located.
??The two places are relatively far apart, and he arrived after it was completely dark. However, the mining area belongs to Tiantianle and no one except employees is allowed to enter.
It’s not easy to get in. Not only are there robots patrolling the perimeter, but there are also flying 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, avoided the robot and entered the mountain.
??This area of ????the mountain is under the Tiantianle Mining Group. Some mines have been closed, and some are still operating. There are fewer patrol robots in the closed areas, but surveillance equipment is still installed in many places, making it impossible to prevent.
Don''t destroy these instruments, otherwise the surrounding robots will rush to support you immediately.
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. The sparse surveillance equipment could not cover every corner, not to mention that even if the surveillance equipment was intertwined, a sudden blow of wind blew 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 have 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, and he has not 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 the mines near Dingdinghua 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 crack marks, Some years old.
? No wonder there was an accident. The fact that such a large crack appeared in the ground proves that the 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. Instead, they 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 ran through 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.
Xu Huo did not 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 find 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.
?The mine that was being mined was difficult to enter, but Xu Huo walked around and saw the robot workshop in a 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 is adjacent to the closed mine and is parallel to the one he just saw. Looking at the working diagram, it seems that the ore is really dug out from these cracks.
In addition to the higher accident rate, this situation is such that everyone would like to praise these gem mines for being “informed and knowledgeable”.
??Checked the situation nearby again, and when Xu Huo left, he took a watch terminal.
?This watch terminal is already open and the information can be viewed without authentication.
However, what this emergency worker only dealt with was minor collapses, instability of the mine, and confusion of 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 "Trade 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 scattered gems are naturally like human teeth. They can be used after picking them up 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 the mines in Area 019 all based on such ground fissures?
There was no news at all on the Jixin terminal.
