640 Getting Rich Overnight
People started to think.
Why were these five great potions so deeply embedded in people’s lives that they could never be abandoned?
After careful consideration, they finally realized that the potions had penetrated into every sector of human life and become a part of it.
It was difficult to give up on them.
Who could give up the eternal youth and longevity that the Life potions provided?
Who could throw away the vigor that the energy serum bestowed?
Besides, who among those were once crippled would willingly return to their painful past?
At this moment, Wu Mo saw a scene that piqued his interest.
An oil field that was about to be developed was revealed on the screen.
The entire construction team would focus on the deep exploitation of this oil field.
“Look! I heard that China’s going to help another country develop some oil fields. Is that true?”
“Oh, my God! China is unfathomably powerful. They’re mining oil fields on Eternal Sun. The equipment has to be incredibly expensive!”
“The price isn’t a problem. The main point is how challenging it will be. After all, we’re talking about another planet. This is not our own backyard!”
“Yes, but I don’t think this will be a big deal for China.
“Look!
“Their team is ready!”
In the blink of an eye, the Chinese mining team had begun to move.
An enormous piece of mining equipment slowly sank into the ground and started to spin endlessly.
Di di di…
The sound seemed to pass through the screen and hit the viewers’ hearts.
Everyone stared at the screen without blinking.
The mining process was carried out at lightning speed, and the device was driven hundreds of meters underground.
The oil underground was partially fluid like a gel.
After it was processed, it could be turned into the oil that we commonly use.
Wu Mo looked at the screen intently. As the mining process progressed, the scale of the entire oil field was about to surface.
When the entire oil field appeared before them, everyone gasped in disbelief.
“This is impossible. My eyes are deceiving me!” a survey expert could not help but exclaim.
Even Wu Mo put down what he was doing. He had a serious look on his face.
No one could have expected what was reflected on the screen at this moment. It was an oil field of an astonishing scale.
An oil field that was tens of thousands of square meters in size and hundreds of meters deep lay there quietly. The huge reserve was terrifying.
“Hahaha! We’ve become rich overnight!”
The country that owned the oil field was the first to be ecstatic.
According to the rules of the Planetary Alliance, all the resources within the range of a country’s base on Eternal Sun belonged to said country.
The huge oil field was no different from a windfall for the country’s people.
However, their faces turned pale right after their initial joy. It was as if they were about to cry.
“This is bad! This is really bad! We’ll have to give forty percent of the shares to China. I want to find a rope and hang myself with it!”
On the contrary, China’s representative who was in charge of the project, its senior military officers, and the insiders who knew about this were all grinning from ear to ear.
The bigger the oil field, the more they would earn.
After all, China had the right to enjoy forty percent of the profits according to the agreement.
“Chief Engineer Wu, we’ve made a huge profit this time! Forty percent is an astonishing number!” a researcher said to Wu Mo with a smile.
Wu Mo never thought the agreement that he had casually signed would bring such shocking benefits.
He had assumed that it was just a small oil field. He did not expect an enormous oil field to be hidden there.
An oil field like that would definitely be the focus of attention even in China.
Before the watchful eyes of the global audience, the oil field’s development went into full swing.
China’s base had surpassed the entire world in terms of efficiency. It was almost like they used magic to get where they were.
All the oil under the field was extracted, and this formed a huge oil well.
The well did not require a water pump, and the great horsepower alone could suck out the gel-like oil.
Of course, this was only the initial process. After the oil slick on the surface of the field was extracted, the oil field would be completely destroyed.
The slightly-solidified oil was easily transported out via large-scale mining equipment.
The entire process was long and slow. It seemed uninteresting.
However, the leaders of every country were excited when they saw what was happening. Nevertheless, there were still some who were sad.
At this moment, another message came. The dome was about to start transforming.
Upon hearing this, the national leaders who had recently obtained a share of the oil field were filled with anticipation.
“Look! It’s started to change shape again!”
Some of the viewers’ attention was also drawn to the live stream.
The dome device resembled a huge mushroom. It slowly opened up, and its shape became wider.
Whenever the huge “parachute” covered a farther spot, the distance between the sensor joints would also increase accordingly.
All of this did not seem to be a big deal because its range could change.
It just meant that another ten countries would be surrounded by the dome.
Not long after, the dome device completed its transformation. Its coverage increased by at least tens of thousands of kilometers.
However, this was only the beginning! Next, the dome device covered all the sensor joints at the edge of the device. It then released powerful wires to form a huge power grid.
This electric net was incomparably powerful. It could isolate all foreign objects with a pressure that far exceeded human imagination. But there was still more to the dome’s protection.
It hid countless secrets. Even Wu Mo had not been able to figure them out.
However, he did not need to know about all of them. He just needed to utilize its defensive abilities.
Why did he have to figure out every single thing? Would that not be troublesome?
Once the dome completely opened up, the ten countries would be completely covered. The bases in each country could then be developed in peace.
However, there was a small interlude during the transformation process.
During the dome’s expansion, it covered a country that did not receive a share of the oil field.
The country’s leader was overjoyed for a moment. He thought that he might get an unexpected surprise.
His base was unintentionally surrounded. As a result, he could enjoy the dome’s protection for free. What wonderful treatment!
Unfortunately, his expression changed before he could smile properly.
In the next moment, the dome device displayed its unique shapeshifting ability.
It twisted its body like a giant snake and brushed past the edge of his country. After that, it expanded to cover another country.
His country was cruelly ridiculed in response, and viewers around the world burst into laughter.
“Ha! This is what happens when a country tries to take advantage of the dome. They really underestimated the dome!”
Amidst the laughter, the dome remained the same as before. It hung in the air and formed a transparent protective net.
Every country had felt a sense of pressure as if there was a huge lid on their heads. This eased the fear in their hearts a little.
The oil field was still being exploited. Wu Mo also instructed the construction team to pay close attention to the luxury residential area. He wanted to see if there were any new archaeological ruins.
The ruins of the civilization in the luxurious residential area had been properly protected. In addition, the team was conducting research day and night.
Once there was a major discovery, they had to inform Wu Mo immediately.
As the excavation continued, the land was completely emptied.
