Chapter 1011 Stable Development

Although they have not been here for a long time, they are a group of people who have been engaged in related work, so they are very familiar with the situation here.

Through the communication with these people during this period of time, several people have almost figured out the current situation here.

First of all, the first point is about the most important intelligence here, the mining ship.

After all, they want to make a lot of money in the future and it is closely related to this thing, so when they first came here, they also inquired carefully and roughly learned some related information.

First of all, there are currently three generations of mining ships, excluding the first and second generations of mining ships that have been in service for many years. In addition, the third generation of mining ships is very special.

Because the production technology requirements are too high, the output has not been high, which has also led to the high price. Of course, its function also corresponds to its price. First of all, its collection efficiency is 4 to 5 times that of the first and second generations.

This means that in the same number of days, they can produce several times more.

If you want to buy this kind of mineral spring, the first point is that you have good channels and relationships, and buy through channels and relationships.

But even if you have a channel relationship, the purchase volume is definitely not low.

So this leads to many people not having enough funds to buy even if they have channels, and it is rare to encounter a mining team that has enough funds to buy these things.

And even if you have such funds, it will not be of much use, because you still have to consider competition. After all, it is impossible for you to be the only one who likes this thing. There are also other people who may also like this thing.

Especially for some large mining teams that specialize in mining, it is already very amazing for a general mining team to have more than 40 ships of their own. You should know that there are only six ships in the mining team they joined now.

Of course, this does not mean that they do not have the strength to buy more ships, but the output of the mining area is here.

To put it simply, the output of each mining area is limited.

It is impossible to say that it is unlimited.

These mining equipment requires a lot of funds for maintenance every year.

This means that you must have a stable income for a long time. Once there is no mining, the annual expenditure of these things in your hands is a huge number, so many teams will control their construction according to the actual situation. The team they joined now is, after all, a team that eats scraps.

The so-called scraps are that some areas have less mineral content, and the big organizations don't look down on them, but these are a bit like chicken ribs, tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away, so they sell the money to some small teams. For small teams, the things in the teeth of these big organizations are enough for them to survive.

This is the real situation here. It is also for this reason that the number of mining ships in these teams is not too exaggerated. Otherwise, with their output, most of their income is used to buy mining ships, which is definitely a large number now.

Of course, they are not saying that there are only a few ships to mine, but the ownership of these few ships is basically rented.

In fact, renting can be regarded as a cost-effective model. First of all, in this operation mode, you don't need to worry about your ship needing to pay a large amount of operating expenses when there is no mineral to mine.

At that time, just stop renting, and then continue to rent when there are resources.

This model is naturally a model that many people are happy to accept.

It's just that everything is competitive, especially in a small circle like theirs, the competition is very fierce.

So there are a lot of twists and turns in it. If you don't have a channel, you may be cheated to death without knowing what's going on.

After understanding the general situation, the captain naturally gave up the idea of ​​this operation. For him, it is the safest to buy directly from his side without knowing the situation in the industry, at least there are not so many follow-up problems.

But when it comes to buying, there is also a saying here. First of all, ships of the first and second level technology can indeed be bought, but it is basically unrealistic to buy the third level technology.

They were lucky before and happened to meet a friend with a channel, so they picked up a leak.

It will definitely be impossible in the future, so they set their sights on the second level. Even though there is a lot of competition in this level, they must make arrangements in advance.

However, considering that you can't be too impulsive in anything, you must know that stability is the most important thing, so they only paid a deposit for two ships, and when they make more money in the future, they will pay more deposits and expand their fleet in this way.

However, they are also confused about the future. After all, some things cannot be carried out according to their own plans. There may always be some accidents in the middle.

So they are extremely cautious in every step.

Of course, they also have a complete plan for their future. The first is to expand their own formation. When the number of their own formation is sufficient, then the next step is the focus.

Buy a similar number of combat ships to form an escort formation, and then recruit personnel.

When all these are almost ready, their own team will come out and they can go to find mining areas.

Of course, what they found here are basically some small mining areas. Maybe there will be nothing left in this place after 10 days or half a month, and then they have to go to the next place to be wandering miners.

But for them, this is naturally a way.

At least compared to living under someone else's roof, you can only get a small part of the money they earn, which will undoubtedly increase your income and is also a solution they agree with.

It's just that it takes a lot of time to prepare here.

Of course, everyone present has already planned it in advance.

As time goes by, the days pass by, and they are also slowly proceeding according to their own plans.

"Captain, we have now gathered the funds for the second ship, and the seller has already communicated with us, and we should be able to deliver the goods in the near future."

At this time, a team member saw the message sent by the seller and quickly told the captain about the situation. After receiving the message, the captain also thought for a while and said.

"Has the mining team been arranged?"

"We have found a suitable mining team. I heard that there are 12 resource points there, and the entire mining team has a total of more than 200 mining ships."

"I estimate that it can be mined there for at least several years. According to our current production, after the things over there are done, we should have all the mineral springs ready."

After digging here for such a long time, the resources here have been almost consumed, so now they must set out as soon as possible to find a new mining team.

After such a long time here, of course they have their own channels. It is no exaggeration to say that they are now considered to be experienced in mining.

And the efficiency of the ship in their hands is very high, so they naturally become a hot commodity.

After all, for those who matchmake to open mining teams, the higher the mining volume of the people they recruit, the higher their income will be, so they naturally hope that the team will have such high mining volume.

In addition, they have been inquiring intentionally or unintentionally over the years, and basically they are very familiar with the situation here.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the mining capacity of the mining team over there should be sufficient."

"However, compared with this side, the commission over there is obviously much higher, but it is normal to think about it. After all, if the commission is not high for providing such a good resource point, it will really be a problem."

"Since everything has been arranged, we can arrange it in the near future. In addition, tell the seller to hand over the mining ship as much as possible in the near future, and then we can go with them."

The captain arranged everything in this way.

Time flies and soon it is time to go to the new area.

When the captain and his friends came here, they naturally attracted widespread attention. There is no way. They not only have the third-stage mining ship, but also two other second-stage mining ships. Just relying on this alone, it is enough to show their extraordinary strength.

"There are actually three mining ships, and they are all highly efficient."

"I estimate that it won't be long before they will form their own team."

"It's not that easy to form your own team. Either you have a channel to get these resource points, or if you don't have a channel, it will be troublesome."

"Being a wandering miner, although it sounds good, but in fact, you live a precarious life."

"Teams that can get fixed resources can recruit people like us to help mine. They just sit and collect money. As long as they have many channels, they can make a lot of money by collecting money."

"But wandering miners are different. No one is willing to... Following them, they lived a dangerous and precarious life, so they could only rely on themselves. "

"But if the wandering collectors are lucky, they might really be able to take off."

"It's easier said than done, but it's not easy to find a large undiscovered mining site or a rare ore site. This is not as simple as you think. Many times, they are unlucky and just encounter the enemy and are directly wiped out. Compared with the guaranteed organization of the mining team, the wandering miners have too many unknown risks. "

In the chat channel of the ship, everyone is also discussing that they are actually very clear that if they have the ability, they are willing to take risks.

Because the ores they collect now are some of the most basic ores. If you really want to make money, you must dig for the rare ores. Take a very simple example. If you dig and collect ordinary ores, you may earn 10 million a day, but collecting rare ores is at least 50 or 60 million, or even hundreds of millions.

There is no need to say how big the gap is.

But it is not easy to become a wandering miner. It is not enough to have a ship.

You also need to have your own armed formation.

After all, the safe areas have basically been developed. If you want to develop them, you can only go to those dangerous areas.

There is no need to say how risky it is to go to dangerous areas.

So if you are unlucky, you may die halfway.

And if you want to raise an armed formation, the resources you need to consume are not that simple.

Because a complete fleet has many different types of ships, which means that professional personnel are needed and different constructions also require high maintenance costs.

The cost of personnel wages and maintenance, these added up to an astronomical figure every day, and the wandering mining team must first find the resource area, and only when they find it can they start working. Before they find it, it is basically a loss.

For these team leaders, they are naturally very clear, but even so, they still resolutely decided to do this.

The reason is that only when you are your own boss can you really make money. Although their income is not low now, their living standards are gradually improving.

If you really want to have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime, you need to work harder. When you earn enough money to spend for a lifetime, you can relax at that time.

You must know that if you want to live a stable life in this world, it is not as simple as you imagine. After all, civilizations are always at war, which means that if you want to control your own destiny, you must first have a ship of your own, and it must be a ship with strong combat effectiveness.

At least it is at the strategic level, and it can even be higher if conditions permit, because only this level is the main force, and other levels of ships are basically cannon fodder. No one would be happy to put the family's life and property on cannon fodder.

In this way, they began to work hard for their own small goals. No matter which civilization in this era, they actually have a talent for seizing opportunities. Judging from their current situation, they only need to work hard for a few more years, and basically they don't need to worry about many things. However, even so, they are still willing to take risks to do these things.

In addition to allowing their families to have a relatively safe and comfortable environment, more importantly, they know very well that this is an opportunity.

An opportunity to truly control their own destiny.

Let's put it this way, for them, I don't know how much luck it takes to encounter the current situation, buy a mining ship, find a mining team, and there have been no major problems in the past few years of mining, allowing them to mine and develop steadily. For them, this is an opportunity.

Since it is an opportunity, it must be seized.

They want to see if they can really change the current situation of their family with this opportunity. (End of this chapter)
