My sampan can be upgraded

Chapter 92 Catman Mountain Village
The Tomahawk took off again, and flew to some selected mountain villages under the guidance of the patriarch of the cat people.Tantalum Niobium Star is very large, and there are countless cat-human tribes living scattered. According to the environmental characteristics provided by Ling Qi, after mobilizing the tribe to screen them, he still can't guarantee that there is a place Ling Qi is looking for.Some particularly remote villages have not even been discovered and recorded by them.

In fact, it is really hard to find. After so many years, the villages below have not changed much. Every time Xiaorou goes to a place, she just glances at it and shakes her head slightly, indicating that it is not her village.After more than 30 consecutive days, a dilapidated small village in the mountains finally surprised her.On the other side of the mountain, there is a deposit that is still being mined.

This small mountain village doesn't even have a name. There is only one number 486 in the cat people's registered file. There are only a dozen simple huts made of bamboo and wood in the whole village, hidden in the mountain stream. It is difficult to find if you don't look for it. The human race discovered them and registered them.

The spaceship over 100 meters cast a huge shadow and pressure on the small mountain village. More than 20 cat-men and women came out of the houses and other places and looked up at the sky.The spaceship couldn't land directly, so Ling Qi let the car float in the air, and drove the speedboat to the ground.

The patriarch of the cat people took the lead to get off the speedboat, which made the nervous cat people relax. They asked around him, and heard that they were just accompanying people to see the place. They looked at the speedboat and the big spaceship in the sky curiously.

Then Ling Qi took Xiaorou's hand and came down together.There are no roads here, only natural mud paths, and Catwoman feels a distant familiarity.She jumped slightly, looked at more than 20 villagers, and found that she had no impression.There is no enlightenment education for children here. She was too confused when she left, and only remembered being caught while looking for wild fruits on the mountain.

But her impression of the environment became clearer and clearer. First, she dragged Ling Qi around the small village for a while, found some things in her memory, and then suddenly dragged him to a corner of the small village, and finally stopped in a dilapidated cave. in front of the house.

The patriarch of the cat people and more than 20 cat people who were also short in stature followed. One of the cat people meowed and talked to the patriarch. The patriarch asked Ling Qi: "He said this is his home. What are you looking for?"

Ling Qi and Xiaorou looked at each other, seeing that she obviously didn't know the cat person, so they asked, "Where is the family who lived in this house five years ago?"

According to Xiao Rou, she has parents and a bunch of brothers and sisters, so there are many family members.The cat man said again, the patriarch had no choice but to continue to be an interpreter, and told Ling Qi: "He said that the original family had two amazing brothers who were very capable and could operate machines. The family has moved to the big The city is gone. But they don’t know exactly where they went, they drove a big sampan to move.”

Ling Qi nodded, didn't say much, and returned to the car with everyone.When there were no outsiders in the bridge, he said to Kitty Catwoman: "Xiaorou, if we ask the patriarch to help us investigate, we should be able to find out their location. But we can't make a big show of it, lest someone who wants to know your relationship with them, give them bring danger."

He could see the protective mentality of the patriarch of the cat people towards the clansmen, and he believed that even if the old man knew about the special blood of the little cat girl, he would not reveal it.

Xiaorou nodded and said: "Xiaorou understands, just wants to see them and know that they are doing well, then Xiaorou will leave a large amount of credits for them, and then continue to take risks with her brother."

After the two got acquainted with each other, Ling Qi invited the patriarch of the cat people to the bridge and confessed Xiao Rou's identity.Xiaorou also communicated with him in the clan language that she remembered.

The old catman stared at the little catwoman with wide eyes in shock, and murmured, "So our race can continue to evolve and become the same as the human race?"

He obviously didn't know the existence of bloodline awakening and transformation talent, he only thought that this was the direction of evolution of the race, and his beard was shaking with excitement.

"If the patriarch can help Xiaorou find her relatives, the 1000 million credits deposit can be used as a reward, which will be reserved for you to use as funds for the development of the clan. But please keep Xiaorou's existence a secret, because she has a terrifying presence outside. She doesn't want to attract enemies because of her identity exposure, and bring disaster to the people!"

Ling Qi explained to him seriously.

The old catman sighed with emotion: "The one-horned tribe is right, you are a good person. But even if you don't give me credit, I should help her find her relatives, she is our tribe!"

"Grandpa patriarch, that's the wish of my brother and I, please accept it. Xiaorou knows that there are still many clansmen living in the deep mountains, and their lives are not guaranteed, so I will give you another credit to improve their living conditions " After finishing speaking, Xiaorou transferred three star coins to him.

She originally had four star coins, and the remaining one star coin was intended to be left to her family.Ling Qi didn't interfere with how she used it, but stroked her hair encouragingly. The money belonged to her in the first place.

The patriarch of the cat people almost stared out his eyes, repeatedly checking the information on the account, unbelievable.With such a large amount of money, he felt that even if he sold all the cat people, he would not be able to make money.

Ling Qi told him what Anu did after earning 2000 million credits, and suggested that he could refer to it and organize some knowledgeable clansmen to discuss how to use the funds well.

They then left the deep mountain and returned to the main city.The patriarch of the cat people began to organize the clan association, and sent out a mission to find Xiaorou's family in several small and medium-sized cities near the deep mountain.These tasks are not difficult to operate. The small village has been registered, and it only needs to inquire among the ethnic groups.

It takes time to find someone, Ling Qi asks Anu where his people got the blasting stone, and plans to find it himself.

This kind of gem is too powerful, inlaying one will increase the attack power of energy weapons by 10%, and more importantly, this kind of increase does not require additional energy output.With the Tomahawk's current level [-] energy tank, it can simultaneously support the salvo of four destroyer guns while taking into account the output of the shield and the main thruster.If you give up the shield, you can support two more guns, reaching a salvo of six guns, blasting away the conventional fifth-tier warships in one fell swoop.

"If you can inlay ten blasting stones, or even if you only inlay five to increase the attack power by half, you can compete with the sixth-tier battleship! Well, the one-horned people found two. I don't know if other groups participating in the mining have not found?"

Ling Qi felt that it was possible to announce an acquisition first.He gave the image of the blasting stone to the head of the one-horned patriarch, and asked him to help inform all the groups participating in the mining that they would buy that kind of gemstone at a high price.

This method really worked, and only half a day later, a bearman contacted Anu, and then connected him and Ling Qi online.

"Do you have that fiery red gemstone?" Ling Qi asked looking at the majestic guy on the communicator projection. He was not as tall as Anu, but he was stronger and full of strength.

The bear man scratched his head and said in a low voice, "I don't have it, but I saw it in the mine. I can take you there. Will you pay me?"

"Yes, if you take me there, no matter whether you find the gem or not, I will pay you a lot of money. Of course, if you do find it, the reward will be even more!" Ling Qi promised him.

Xiongren's fat face showed joy: "Great, if I have credit, I can take my brother to treat illnesses."

Ling Qi found out that his address was in another city, so he flew directly on the Tomahawk and took him to the mine he mentioned.

The mine is located far away from the city, more than 300 kilometers away, and it is still operating normally.There are people stationed in the mining company here. Although the specific work is mainly managed by the indigenous people themselves, they will also arrange people to supervise and guide them to ensure that the minerals they provide equipment for mining will not be sold to other companies by the indigenous people.

The Tomahawk landed next to the mine, where a field had been leveled out for the transport ship to land on.A young man ran out of the building wearing a mask. He knew the bear man. This guy was originally an employee here. He heard that his brother was sick and asked for leave to take care of him at home these days.Seeing Ling Qi and the others coming down from the spaceship, he immediately asked Xiong Ren what their origin and purpose were.

"We came to find a kind of fiery red stone, which is far away from the current operation area and will not interfere with mine operations." The bear man explained to the youth.The young man frowned and refused, not wanting to do such uncontrollable things.

Ling Qi sized him up, he looked like a civilian college student who had just graduated for a year or two, who was assigned to this kind of place to earn income, and was just a low-level person.He showed the identity certificate of the pilot of the Rose Fleet, and said solemnly: "This is a military mission, I hope you will cooperate!"

The young man was obviously taken aback. After carefully checking the certificate, he didn't dare to obstruct it.Such electronic certification documents are all non-editable program documents and cannot be faked.But he asked to accompany him to the mine.

Ling Qi asked him to find a nail hoe, took the opportunity to look around, and saw several refining workshops in operation.Their energy supply does not rely on burning carbon fuels, but uses high-energy material reactors. Not only do they not need to cut down a lot of trees to destroy forest vegetation, but even the exhaust emissions are very small. No wonder the damage to the ecological environment is limited.

"The awareness of sustainable development in this world is still very strong. From Minglan Star to Tantalum Niobium Star, we can see this kind of protection of the ecosystem. It is estimated that this is also an ideology formed after suffering a big loss." Ling Qi felt it in his heart.The livability transformation cost of the tantalum-niobium star is lower than that of many planets, if the substances that cause toxic gases are not widely present in the soil, or have already been cleaned and purified.

The mine is very large, the entrance is eight meters wide, and there are two tracks arranged up and down.They entered the cave from the down track in a mine cart, and slid deep into the mine according to the bearman's guidance.

"I found that it's located on the top of a passage on the third floor, and it's still embedded in the rock, with only a little exposed. If the minecart hadn't stopped for a while due to a breakdown, I wouldn't have noticed it."

Xiongren explained the experience of discovering gemstones in the first place. Ling Qi listened and observed the mine. The experience of entering the mine for the first time found that it was not as dark and depressing as imagined.Lamps are installed on the cave wall to ensure the lighting in the cave.
