Deep Space Fleet

Chapter 50 Journey into Space

Distant bells echoed in my ears, and the sun loomed just below the horizon.

Zhang Yuan came to his seat and buckled up his seat belt.

He took a deep breath, trying to get all the bad emotions out of his mind.

hum!

After the elevator started, it brought a slight sense of overweight, which made the eardrums in his ears roar.

The structure of the maglev elevator is a bit like a high-speed train erected. It moves very fast, and after a period of acceleration, it moves upward at a speed of about 500 kilometers per hour.

It is estimated that after 72 hours and 3 days, it will reach the position of the synchronous orbit at 36,000 kilometers, that is, the "Tenglong" space city.

It costs about 10 yuan per kilogram to transport materials into space through a space elevator. In order to reduce transportation costs, the means of transportation such as maglev elevators should be as light and convenient as possible, so the overall environment cannot be very comfortable.

There is only one small berth per person, and tourists need to pay extra for their carry-on luggage.

In a few minutes, the elevator reached the stratosphere, surpassing the height of Mount Everest. Through the windows, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery outside.

At this height, the panorama of Xisha City comes into view. Various aesthetic traffic tracks are like blood vessels in the city, and moving cars are like flowing blood.

This international port city is running day and night.

Anyway, being idle is boring, so Zhang Yuan simply chatted with Li Zhendong.

Li Zhendong frowned and said: "A few days ago, I received a notice that everyone has to look for some work items. As a comprehensive performance consideration, there are also various job hierarchy systems. It is equivalent to military ranks in the army."

"We astronauts are all going to the sky, and we still have to generate income for the foundation... This is blatant exploitation!"

While swiping calculus on his mobile phone, Zhang Yuan retorted: "You can also eat and wait to die, and do nothing. Anyway, as long as you have a basic position in the spaceship, you will be paid, and you will not die of starvation. If you really If you are starving to death, you can apply for hibernation."

"I already have 100,000 Singapore dollars, probably the richest one on the spaceship. A boxed meal only costs 4 yuan, which is enough for me to eat for a long time."

The conversion between FedCoin and SGD is about 100:1.

100,000 SGD, based on a salary of 1,000 a month, you have to work for 8.3 years.

Li Zhendong stared, seeing Zhang Yuan frantically brushing up his calculus again, he was suddenly speechless.

Zhang Yuan donated 10 million Federal Coins at the award ceremony, and confronted reporters, which caused a sensation. He must have known about it.

At that time, I wondered for a long time that this kind of pretentious occasion was actually met by Zhang Yuan, and he was asked to pretend to be perfect...

"You are such a big dog, when will you treat your guests to dinner?"

Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "Okay, I'll treat you to eat synthetic meat, eat as much as you want. In fact, money is not very useful, at least not for the time being. I can't eat the food shared by two people. Lots of electronics and no need to buy anything else...”

Li Zhendong wondered, "You only brought electronic products? I also brought some seasonings, especially chili sauce. Don't ask me for it!"

Zhang Yuan was stunned, "It's over, I forgot!"

The item output of the spaceship is quite limited, and everyone has a purchase limit.

It is impossible for Zhang Yuan to use his large amount of funds to buy up all the food, then drive up prices, engage in monopoly, resell to make money, etc.

These behaviors are not allowed. If they happen, Zhang Yuan may be invited to the relevant department for tea.

Although the society is small, it also has a sound security mechanism.

On the other hand, the donated wealth will only make the initial funds a little bit more, and there is no way to improve social status.

It is a manifestation of ability to bring income to the Deep Space Foundation through work projects.

In other words, starting from the academic aspect, you can write some excellent papers and show your own value.

The "Earth Age" wants to build a new civilization on a distant planet. The first thing it advocates is to work more and get more, and work less and get less. People with high working ability have more resources and authority, which is a matter of course.

This is especially true when resources are scarce.

Except for those experts, professors and skilled workers who already had a relatively high status, these young people are all standing on the same starting line.

The entire assessment will take a total of one year, until the spacecraft arrives at the Jupiter base, and after replenishing the last material, it will enter a formal ultra-long-distance interstellar voyage. Most of the crew will enter a hibernation state, and they will only wake up once every three to five hundred years. .

People with higher authority can choose hibernation batches first, for example, hibernate later than others.

Li Zhendong sighed: "I'm not far away from the earth yet, and I can still communicate with my relatives. Everyone wants to hibernate later, maybe a year or two later."

"But once you close your eyes, it will be three hundred years after you wake up, and there will be nothing left."

"Yes!" Zhang Yuan also sighed.

This is the most uncomfortable point.

Separate from the times, from all relatives, and truly abandon everything.

The two chatted here and were silent for a while.

Li Zhendong came back to his senses and continued: "... let's not talk about this, let's talk about the work project. I plan to make a mobile game. The game is not difficult to make, and if it is a blockbuster, it can make a lot of money It's gone!"

"Games?" Zhang Yuan was a little interested in this game before, but now, he feels that playing games is better than studying.

"Send me the planning book."

"Okay, send it to you to see."

Li Zhendong thought happily in his heart, Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan, the hero is sad for the beauty pass, you pick up girls all the time, probably you didn't do anything during the whole vacation, right?

The girl is too beautiful, the hero can only be a bear!

It's not like me, studying hard while writing plans at the same time, it's just miserable. Dude, it's hard work for a holiday!

Wait a moment!

A question popped up in Li Zhendong's mind: What would I do if I had a beautiful girl?

I would definitely choose to be a bear too!

Thinking of this, Li Zhendong is not so gloating, but full of yearning and...envy!

"It's a pity... what a pity!"

"What a pity?"

Zhang Yuan carefully read the entire game planning book, frowning slightly, "Auto chess? It's a novel idea. But it's not that easy to make money. Games not only require programming, but also depend on luck. You'd better find someone Artists, and then find a few more people to do it.”

"Do you want to do it together?" Li Zhendong still believes in Zhang Yuan's programming level.

Although the other party has turned into a bear, I still have to save a wave. Who told me that Li Zhendong is too kind.

Zhang Yuan thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, I don't have the time. I have already found the project, and I will work on the robot control program with the professors of Xisha University. I don't know if I can make money, but try my best anyway... "

"A robot program?"

"Yes, I have promised them. Some instruction sets to guide the robot's movement are very difficult, so hurry up and supplement the relevant knowledge..."
