Chapter 417: Jaw-dropping

As the few people were standing still, a construction vehicle transporting materials drove over.

"This means of transportation is a great improvement over the horse-drawn carriages of the Qin Dynasty. It looks like it is powered by an internal combustion engine," said Wang Qingbao.

Zhang Hao nodded.

"That's true, but the internal combustion engine is a product of the early stages of technological civilization."

Since the Earth's means of transportation still use internal combustion engines, Wang Qingbao feels that the Earth's technological level is still relatively low.

Several people followed the transport vehicle into the factory.

Inside the factory, hundreds of soldiers are working intensively on production.

This is the processing base for the spacecraft "Voyager 3".

The general outline of "Voyager 3" has been formed, and its overall size is comparable to Ace's mothership.

But the design style comes from aircraft carriers on Earth.

"Huh~" Zhao Siyan exclaimed when she saw the appearance of the spaceship.

"What's wrong?" Wang Qingbao asked.

"Did you notice the difference?" Zhao Siyan asked back.

Wang Qingbao watched the soldiers' operating procedures carefully.

"It's actually the technology of automatic fusion of materials. It seems that Earth's materials science has taken the lead. However, the advancement of materials science alone is not enough to carry out interstellar travel and reach the level of advanced civilization." Wang Qingbao said disappointedly.

From the bottom of his heart, he naturally hopes that the technological development on Earth will be as high as possible.

Qin Wuyan is also very concerned about the technological level of the earth.

But he noticed the details.

He said, "I just saw that the material of the transport vehicle outside is different from the material of the spacecraft being built here, and the craftsmanship is completely different?"

Because according to normal technological development, if the Earth already has the ability to build high-level spacecraft, then it will naturally feed back to civilian use.

He wouldn't have seen so many hidden welds on the transport vehicle just now.

These two process routes are obviously not on the same level.

Zhang Hao stepped forward and said, "Captain Qin is indeed very observant. In fact, according to the technological level of the Earth itself, it is not enough to build a spaceship. All of this was done with the help of Ace."

Zhao Siyan looked as if she had realized it, and then praised , "Not bad, King Ai, you are willing to share the technology of your own planet."

In the cosmic forest, advanced civilizations provide cash technology to lower civilizations free of charge.

Unless there is a purpose.

Ace smiled and responded: "To save my people, I must rely on the power of the earth."

Qin Wuyan nodded and said, "With this kind of technology, we will be more confident in dealing with Organization X."

Wang Qingbao asked: " What about the power source of the spacecraft?"

Ace replied: "Bioenergy."

Qin Wuyan was not surprised, because bioenergy is very common in the universe, and their spacecraft also use this energy for long-distance interstellar travel.

He just casually asked, "Does Earth have enough bioenergy?"

Bioenergy is one of the important energy sources in the universe, and its importance is equivalent to that of oil on Earth.

However, bioenergy is very limited because the population of other planets in the universe is generally not too large.

A normal planet has an average population of only tens of millions.

Just like Ace's planet, its population is only about 20 million.

But bioenergy is so important, how do we ensure its supply?

The more complex an organism is, the more bioenergy it can produce.

Therefore, on a planet, the bioenergy produced by the planet will be purchased for a fee.

These energies will serve as strategic reserve resources for the planet.

This is the energy source commonly used by interstellar travel spacecraft.

Civilian bioenergy is of a lower grade.

Most of them are bioenergy produced by lower organisms on this planet.

This type of energy is generally not as pure as that produced by higher organisms, and its efficiency is also slightly lower.

For example, on Earth.

The bioenergy produced by humans is a very pure bioenergy.

There are also higher animals such as blue whales and elephants, which produce bioenergy that is even purer than that of humans.

However, blue whales are marine creatures that are rare and cannot be used as the main source of bioenergy.

On the contrary, organisms such as cattle, sheep, and pigs are relatively inefficient in producing bioenergy, and the purity is not high.

Not to mention the bioenergy that can be produced by arthropods such as ants, which is almost unusable.

That’s why Qin Wuyan asked such a question.

When he left Earth, the population of the Qin Dynasty was only over 20 million.

The bioenergy that this population resource can produce is barely enough.

Survival in the cosmic society naturally involves commodity trading.

AI Planet has technologies such as blue serum, which are used as capital for commodity circulation to earn cosmic coins.

Cosmic coins can be used to purchase more bioenergy.

Only with sufficient bioenergy can we travel farther into the stars.

But Qin Wuyan thought about it and realized that the Earth didn't seem to have any technology to show off.

This means that if you want to achieve the initial accumulation of cosmic currency, you only need to rely on biological energy.

Ace laughed.

"Captain Qin, you are also an Earthling, haha, you are carrying the jade without knowing it!"

Qin Wuyan was confused by Ace's laughter. Could there be something he didn't know about?

"King Ai, if you know anything, just tell me! "

"Let your fellow villager tell you!"

Ace asked Zhang Hao to answer Qin Wuyan's doubts.

Wang Qingbao spoke .

"Zhang Hao, you don't think that Earth's mineral resources are of great value in the universe? Or that you can sell the technology for building houses?"

He then said, "I'm afraid this won't work. Earth's gold and silver are not hard currency in the universe."

When he left the earth during the Qin Dynasty, the role of gold and silver had already been demonstrated, so he thought so.

He added: "Moreover, advanced civilizations have very low demands for survival, and they may not have high requirements for beautiful, tall, magnificent and grand houses."

He remembered that at that time, Emperor Qin Shi Huang had a great demand for house construction and even broke ground on the Afang Palace.

I don’t know how it was built?

"Besides, gold and silver may be everywhere on some planets. They are just like ordinary stones and have little value."

Before Zhang Hao could say anything, he didn't expect that the other party had already said so much.

He said helplessly: "Faxing Wang, this is not what I want to say!"

"Oh? Is there something better on earth?" Wang Qingbao couldn't help but say.

Zhao Siyan also stared at Zhang Hao, wanting to hear what good stuff Zhang Hao could say.

Zhang Hao raised a finger.

"Hey, what do you mean, little brother, stop hanging your sister~"

Zhao Siyan couldn't help but act coquettishly.

Seeing this, Zhang Hao immediately blurted out that if he was a second later, Zhao Siyan might have come close to him.

"Ten billion!"
