Chapter 523 Crystal Mining Station

Territory, coastline.

A large number of buildings with gray high walls are lined up along the coastline, enclosing the extremely wide salt flats beside the coastline into a cultivation area for special minerals. A large number of shining crystal clusters condense and grow on the enclosed salt flats.

Territory crystal mining station.

Buildings called crystal mining stations do not actually need to mine underground. The only work they need to do is to regularly cultivate crystal minerals that can be used as high-energy fuels.

This extremely special crystal mineral will automatically decompose inorganic salts and water with the help of light to form effective fuel.

The coast is the most suitable place for the construction of such buildings.

Miners work in the growing ore clusters, smash the obtained crystal ore and send it to the nearest warehouse. The ore will be vibrated and sorted for the first time here, and the ores of different weights will be separated and supplied to different places.

Inject sufficient blood and energy into the territory, a city that has broken through the 100,000 mark, and inject the required heat and energy into the large number of steam engines in the territory.

Hundreds of such mines on the beach are harvested on a regular basis, so only a small number of people are needed to work... and harvesting crystal ore does not require any knowledge or technology. Even an old farmer who has just arrived in the territory can safely cultivate and plant crystal ore.

And maintain the efficient output of crystal ore.

Nowadays, such buildings are lined up on the coastline, forming a coastal landscape unique to the territory, reflecting their own scattered prisms in the sun.

"Huh, is this your crystal ore cultivation field?"

Fang Ai looked at the crystal clusters growing on the ground. A large number of wild crystal clusters are growing steadily in the salt-rich salt beach, flashing dazzling prisms in the sun.

The mine has been suspended because of her visit, allowing these crystals to be mined to continue growing on the salt beach. The block manager who was temporarily transferred accompanied the foreign lord to inspect the resource production area.

Each fist-sized crystal ore can provide fuel for a steam engine for half an hour under safe combustion.

Fang Ai leaned over and picked up a piece of crystal ore scattered on the ground, turned it in his hand and admired the light of the prismatic crystal.

If you don't consider its added value, it's pretty good as a crystal ore.

However, I can't take it back to my territory... I can only watch the application of these technologies here.

No, it seems that I can buy some back to my territory as the most basic fuel, just need to trade materials through the Sky Island Transfer Station.

Fang Ai thought about it, picked up a piece of crystal that looked better from the ground and held it in his hand: "Can I take one away as a souvenir?"

"Of course, but this thing can't be in a high temperature environment, please be careful when storing it." The person in charge of the crystal mine production nodded. Crystals are not valuable things, and anyone who wants to take them can take them at will.

And its properties are relatively stable, and it will not explode due to misoperation... It is relatively safe.

After all, this thing is also the raw material of the most commonly used crystal mine explosives in the territory. It can't be taken out of the warehouse casually. If you are not careful, it will cause serious casualties.

Hydrogen is a terrifying gas that will explode if its content in the air is 4%-75%.
