Chapter 590: Taidar Crystal

"Report to the boss, I have a major discovery!"

Just when Moore was in anxiety, he received a message from Claire.

Moore glanced at the message he received and didn't want to respond at all.

As a senior interstellar businessman and a member of the Aron family known for their cunning and stinginess, he is essentially a scumbag boss who is crazy about profit.

He has always been trying to squeeze the bottom workers, and there is no mercy and generosity at all.

In Moore's eyes, these senior miners recruited from Momba with high salaries are nothing more than temporary workers who are used and discarded.

With his noble status as a third-class honorary citizen, he had been so condescending to treat these low-level people just to trick them into working hard.

Now, after finding a suitable space stability node, the star shuttle was able to quietly jump to the depths of the asteroid belt.

These temporary employees have no surplus value.

If it weren't for avoiding being too abrupt and attracting unnecessary attention, Moore would have fired them long ago.

You have to know that their generous salary and exploration losses all have to be paid out of Moore's own pocket.

Seeing that the balance of the Imperial Bank's deposits is constantly decreasing, Moore's heart is bleeding all the time.

His Highness Han Fei has already promised that he will let him go after this matter is done.

The most urgent thing is to do the job assigned by His Highness.

Claire didn't know Moore's true thoughts, and thought he was a conscientious boss who was rare in a century.

His character was originally straightforward and a little reckless.

Otherwise, he would not have resigned from the mining company without caring about his livelihood.

As a low-level worker who grew up in the slums, it is inevitable that he has some street loyalty.

Now that the boss he follows is so righteous, he is naturally eager to show it.

Seeing that the message he sent did not receive a reply for a long time, he just thought that his boss was too busy and didn't care.

Claire simply called directly.

Moore didn't intend to answer, but Claire was stubborn and had no sense of judgment, so he repeated the call desperately.

"Claire, you are so............."

Moore just answered the call, and before he could finish his scolding, he was interrupted by the excited loud voice on the other side.

"Boss, boss, I found a rich vein of Tidal crystals!"

Claire proudly took credit, looking forward to the boss's praise.

"Tidal crystals?"

Moore's eyes suddenly lit up, but soon dimmed, and his expression changed from surprise to regret and depression.

The things are good, but the timing is not right.

Even if you can hire workers on the spot and set up a mining team, there is not enough time to mine.

As a senior businessman, it is really heartbreaking to encounter a treasure mountain but not get it!

On the other side of the call, Claire was still chattering without knowing the inside story:

"Yes, it's the Tidal crystal, or the enriched mineral vein!"

"When I was exploring deep in the asteroid belt, I accidentally found scattered minerals exposed on the surface of the asteroid. I tried to randomly send a few micro-probes, and the thickness of the mineral veins I drilled exceeded tens of kilometers, but I haven't reached the bottom yet!"

"This asteroid is surrounded by extremely dense micro-celestial bodies. According to my past experience, it must contain a lot of mineral deposits."

In a hurry to report the good news to the boss, Claire didn't have time to do a larger-scale detailed exploration, but the confidence from the senior miner was enough to make a firm judgment.

"Haha, the group of bastards of the Mooreson Consortium are still buying Tidal crystals at high prices!"

"I didn't expect such a large enriched mineral vein to be hidden under their noses, and it was not discovered."

Claire's sneer was somewhat venting resentment.

Moore originally intended to perfunctorily say a few words, but suddenly he was blessed and extracted the key words from it.

"Molson Consortium? High price acquisition?"

He just didn't react before, so he didn't think of the connection.

Tedal crystal is a solid pure crystal with complex and stable crystal phase.

Naturally formed raw crystal ore does not contain any energy and it is difficult to absorb external energy.

In the scanning feedback of exploration equipment, it often presents the same values ​​as ordinary quartz.

But the value of the two is not comparable at all.

The characteristics of Tedal crystal are destined to be an excellent energy storage crystal.

Through a specific process, various energies can be infused into the cut standard unit raw crystal.

The high-concentration energy crystal obtained has super high stability and almost no energy spillover, which can be used for ultra-long-term storage.

What's more valuable is that this energy crystal is solid and can be repeatedly charged and recycled.

Although the universe is vast and various resources are almost endless, the characteristics of Tedal crystal that are not easy to be discovered are destined to make its mining volume much lower than other minerals.

In addition, the energy reserve needs of major civilizations have also devoured a large amount of mining capacity.

The number of raw crystals put into commercial transactions has always been limited, so the price is naturally not low.

Of course, the Molson Consortium is so large and powerful that the reserve scale of Taidal crystals must be large.

The reason for the high price is undoubtedly because their past massive reserves are still unable to meet the demand.

Considering the current situation of Momba, the star that is wrapped by the Dyson megastructure and madly absorbs energy, it is not difficult to understand the purchasing behavior of the Molson Consortium.

According to the information obtained from various channels, in this galaxy group actually controlled by the Molson Consortium, all major star systems have built Dyson megastructures.

The energy captured must be stored and transported.

Relying on energy storage equipment alone for long-distance round-trip transportation is too inefficient and the cost is high.

It is undoubtedly more cost-effective and convenient to produce high-concentration energy crystals on site.

In recent years, most of the common energy storage media in the local area have been snapped up by the Mooreson Consortium.

The more the Tidal crystals that can be reused and have strong energy storage capacity are undoubtedly the better for them.

As long as the Tidal crystals that can be bought on the market, the Mooreson Consortium will take as many as they can.

"Good, very good!"

"Claire, you continue to explore the veins in depth, and I will form a mining team as soon as possible!"

"When the time comes, you will definitely get your share of the rewards!"

After casually painting a big pie for Claire, Moore hung up the communication in a hurry.

Then, he sent a message to Han Fei through the bionic half-orc beside him, reporting the news and his own ideas.

"You should recruit miners as soon as possible and start large-scale mining."

"Strive to trade with the Tedar crystals and get in touch with the deacons of the Mooreson Consortium and even higher levels."

"Be more cautious. Even if you can't get more useful information, don't show your hand and cause suspicion on the other side."

"As long as we reach a large-scale purchase agreement with them and do something with the goods, we can secretly grasp the direction of the energy collected by the other side."

"In addition, let the temporary workers you recruit come forward and find a way to contact the staff of the energy storage base..."

After listening to Moore's subsequent plans, Han Fei quickly issued new instructions.
