Chapter 145 Teaching Group

"When was this message sent?"

Looking at the star map, the number of mining companies deployed in the asteroid belt was updated to a glaring '1', Amber asked unhappily.

"12 universe standard days ago, Master, due to the speed of information transmission, some relevant information has not been obtained yet."

"It's been so long, I guess you're dead. Is there any other information that can be found? If so, please summarize it and compile it into a briefing for me."

"Master, I think you should find a dedicated assistant to handle these things. As the strongest artificial intelligence at present, how can I do it every day."

"Hmm?"

"Sorry, Master! I'll do it now!"

While talking harmoniously with Lilith, the Hermes and the Gold Digger also slowly entered the port called 'Swan Port' in the common language of the elves.

In fact, the appearance of this Swan Port is like a huge red starfish.

And the airlock-like structure that Amber and others passed through is also made of some kind of biological valve.

To be honest, it was still hard for Amber to imagine how the living spaceports created by those elves, who were elegant in appearance, noble in temperament, and highly accomplished in art, could be more amazing than the other.

After docking the two ships at the long-term leased berth of the Yuge family, Amber, who had arranged basic maintenance matters, took a flight to the surface with a group of people.

During this process, Lilith had sorted out all the information about this mining company that could be collected in a short period of time.

Timler Mining Development Co., Ltd.

This is a mining company operated by the Timler family, a noble of the Star Dragon Empire.

This family can be said to be mediocre in the Star Dragon Empire. The highest title of their ancestors was a viscount, and the family fiefdom was just an earth-like planet in a remote border galaxy.

Of course, it was divided equally with another family.

Yes, even a viscount could get a fiefdom. This was the confidence that the Star Dragon Empire, the first superpower in the universe in the eyes of the nobles, brought them.

In short, the Timler family had basically no presence in the Star Dragon Empire.

And the Timler Mining Company, run by the family, was not the most important one among all the family's industries.

The base of operations deployed in this unnamed asteroid belt is even more unloved.

The company's main mining fleet is now in the rich mining area of ​​another galaxy, scheming with the mining fleets of other families.

This base of operations in the unnamed asteroid belt is basically equivalent to just inserting a fake eye here.

If you are in a frontal team, would you care that a fake eye you inserted in the wild area has disappeared?

So in the information collected by Lilith, Amber can also understand that the Timler family has no reaction to this matter.

And he estimated that these pirates probably proposed conditions such as ransom for hostages.

For these desperate people, they don't care how much your mining base of operations and mining barges are worth.

They just want cash that can be spent immediately and make them drunk and dreaming.

Unfortunately, these pirates still underestimated the bottom line of human beings.

For mining companies, they never care about the lives of workers in the mining area.

Because those who will be assigned to stay on asteroids for a long time to mine are basically people who are heavily in debt and forced to "sell themselves".

Even though these people are not the hard laborers who wield hoes to dig in the traditional sense.

Rather, they are skilled workers who can operate various types of engineering machinery and understand the asteroid mining process and business specifications.

Since there is no family planning in this world, and whether in the Federation or the Empire, except for those children with particularly high IQs, they have the hope of entering military, scientific research, finance, and social science colleges.

Other children with ordinary qualifications will be directly diverted to industrial and agricultural technical colleges.

Those with a little bit of assets at home may do some business.

Some people will choose to serve in the military on alien planets.

But most people will become a skilled worker or a farmer with strong professional knowledge step by step.

This also leads to the fact that the most lacking in the current human society is workers of this basic type of work.

If you don't do it, there are others who will do it.

So in the eyes of the boss of the mining company, these people are consumables, just a string of numbers.

Now a group of pirates appear, asking him to pay money to exchange for a string of numbers?

Starting a company is not charity, no company boss will do this.

Those who are willing to do this can basically not become company bosses.

On the way to the "Tower of Babel", Amber finished reading the documents sorted out by Lilith.

Although limited by the speed of information transmission, Amber still doesn't know the latest situation, but he has basically understood it.

Anyway, this asteroid belt was originally his goal, it's just a difference of brushing some pirates.

Of course, Amber can choose another location to avoid possible battles.

After all, although this is an asteroid belt, it only looks small on the star map.

If you zoom in, you will find that the length of this asteroid belt has reached 0.4 astronomical units.

As long as he wants, he can completely avoid these pirates.

But Amber thinks that if Timler Company really doesn't want this base of operations, isn't it a bit of a waste to leave it there?

You can also consider being a good person and help them get rid of this 'bad asset' without charging any fees.

"Just do it"

Amber immediately made a plan to take some experts with him to the asteroid belt here to see the situation after a day of repairs at the 'Tower of Babel'.

And when he led a group of people back to the manor, he saw Sergeant Baninger walking up first with an expression looking forward to the stars and the moon.

"Boss, you are finally back!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Sergeant! I heard on the road that you did a great job training those Roma!"

"That all depends on the training plan formulated by Boss. I just lead the training step by step!" Baninger smiled and continued:

"Will you personally take over the next training? After all, we are only good at fighting and killing, and we are really not very good at leading training."

"Well, I'm afraid I have to ask you, sergeant, to take charge of me for a while longer."

Amber explained the situation in which she was about to take people away again, and she saw the old sergeant's expression suddenly became a little lifeless.

"Boss, you can take me with you to dig out asteroids. Although the big guys are here to make money and enjoy themselves with you, we have not lost our job and basic skills."

"Because of this, I asked you guys with the most combat experience to stay and train."

Amber stopped and looked at the Roma man who was running long distance on the training field, and then looked at the old sergeant.

"I hope that you and the instructors will give your experience and skills to these Roma people.

As I said before, they will be our new force in a short period of time, so training them to the point where they can fight is a very important task. "

Even if Amber didn't say it, Baninger knew the importance of this task.

But compared to carrying these furballs in the training ground, the old sergeant may still prefer to wear an exoskeleton and fight with the enemy with a Gauss rifle.

"Sergeant, you don't have to be too sad."

Amber's words attracted Baninger's attention.

"Whether it's you trainers or other Marines, you will still be the core force in infantry combat in the future.

New equipment and weapons will definitely be given priority to you.

Normally you may need to provide training, but when there are more important combat missions, you, the 'instructors', will still be asked to come.

Therefore, even during the training process, you cannot relax in training yourself.

Don’t worry, I didn’t bring you out of Robert IV just to lock you in this manor and waste the rest of your life.”
