The protest was ineffective. Ten minutes later, under the guidance of robots, Ren Zhong and the team went to the dormitory suite located on the second floor of the Pyramid.
The suite consisted of an eight-room, two-hall structure, with an area of more than 400 square meters.
It had a large living room and a small dining room.
Six bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom, a kitchen, a gym, and a home theater.
In some respects, Yu Junren was indeed not lying; the logistics work was very well done.
The living conditions provided by Chenhui Company, although not as good as a manor, were quite comfortable. Even Ren Zhong, who was here to "slack off," had a room to himself.
"Everyone should rest first. An hour later, each of you should enter the wrist watch space to study the operation manual for the new mine excavation work. The exam must start by three in the morning at the latest and pass to obtain a practicing license before six in the morning."
In the living room, Lin Wang gave these instructions.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Lin Wang continued, "Ren Zhong, Song Qianlian, this is your first time being involved in new mine excavation work. Don’t take this exam lightly. The total score is 1000 points, and even though passing only requires 600 points, allowing you to work in the mine, the other four of us have an average score of about 800 points. I hope you both score at least above 700. The team’s average score will affect Chenhui Company’s allocation of mining areas, which directly impacts our earnings. We are here to make a fortune by working hard; we don’t want to be sent to the edges to play supporting roles."
Song Qianlian seemed a bit nervous, "Yes, Captain."
Ren Zhong clenched his fists, posing in a passionate manner, "Don’t worry, Captain, I won’t hold everyone back!"
"Alright then, let’s disperse. Return to your rooms. Pan Fenglian, Si Mawan, come to my room first."
The operation manual was divided into three major parts.
The first part was an introduction to the Chenhui Mine, with the core content being a three-dimensional survey map.
This map did not differ much from the survey map of the Starfire Mine completed over two hundred years ago. The precision of the ore content information was the same, including the number of decimal places. The scanning survey precision of the three-dimensional distribution was the same, as were some standardized compilation procedures of industrial drawings, rich in anachronistic annotations.
In this entire set of three-dimensional survey maps, Ren Zhong obtained several pieces of information.
First, after two and a half centuries, the level of technology in geological surveying and mining on Source Star had not improved.
Second, the Chenhui Mine’s area and mineral reserves were twice that of the Starfire Mine, a super large mine defying planetary geological evolution norms. Its resource categories also differed from the Starfire Mine. While the Starfire Mine primarily focused on molybdenum-iron ore, the Chenhui Mine contained a wide variety of metals, with rare-earth colored and ferrous metals mixed together.
Third, this is a reasonable inference from the previous two points. Two and a half centuries ago, the Chenhui Mine did not exist, undoubtedly. Some kind of technology, currently unknown to him, must have catalyzed the birth of the Chenhui Mine. However, this contradicts his existing scientific view because it violates the law of conservation of mass.
Fourth, the distribution of the ore veins was also strange, forming a reverse radial pattern.
The outline of the underground mine resembled a hemisphere, like a large bowl embedded underground.
The radiating conical ore veins extended themselves from all sides.
The pointed ends of all the metallic aggregates converged to one point.
This point on the surface corresponded to the location of the Pyramid mobile resource excavation central station.
It was as if someone had placed a giant magnet on the surface, capable of attracting all metal atoms, slowly pulling the metal elements from all directions and forming the current bowl-shaped magnetic fluid reverse radial pattern.
Of course, this central station had only flown in and landed there after Purple Crystal Mining decided to excavate this place a short while ago.
The creation of the mining area wasn’t due to the Pyramid central station but something else.
After looking at the survey map, Ren Zhong quickly skimmed through the second part of the operation manual.
The Screw Rock Excavator user manual and product brochure, the Kangaroo Pouch standard usage manual, the Source Stone collection operation guide, and other content.
Since the latter two items were already within Ren Zhong’s knowledge, he focused on the Screw Rock Excavator.
Only half an hour later, he managed to thoroughly understand the Screw Rock Excavator using his innate skills of photographic memory and rapid logical analysis.
True to its origin as a product of advanced civilization, the Screw Rock Excavator boasted a drill bit claimed to never wear out.
The body of the excavator could rely on the drill bit at its top to easily rip through rocks and metal ores, like slicing through tofu, achieving an underground excavation speed of up to 50 kilometers per hour. Once charged, it could continuously excavate for 3000 kilometers.
