The Three-Body Problem: The Most Competent Wallfacer of All Time

Chapter 329 Status of Outer Planets
Jiang Yu and his team walked around Saturn City, and the surrounding space cities and colonies, and were quite satisfied with the construction progress of these places.

More than 1 million immigrants have been properly resettled, but their living space is still a little narrow.

Jiang Yu has visited their residences. Generally, eight unmarried people live in one room, and the size of the room is similar to that of a university dormitory.

Married people will be allocated a room of about ten square meters, and a family of three or four will be crowded here.

These places made Jiang Yuhui think of the Tongzilou that he had seen in movies before.

The next step is to expand their living space. Two new districts have been built, where the family living space is much larger, basically three bedrooms and one living room.

Even those who do not form a family can be allocated a single-person apartment with a separate toilet and a separate kitchen.

With two new districts as models, everyone is very motivated to work, and they all look forward to building the new district as soon as possible to live in.

What satisfied Jiang Yu the most was that with Gu Cheng's efforts, the market in the Saturn civilization circle had initially prospered.

Many people have worked here for enough years, and the executive government granted them the citizenship of the solar system country and began to settle their wages.

In addition, Gu Cheng first attracted some retailers by means of attracting foreign capital.

At the same time, the few metals and industrial output in the Jupiter civilization circle were all replaced by him for daily necessities and sold back.

With money in the hands of residents and commodities in the city, the market will naturally prosper initially.

Jiang Yu asked Gu Cheng to sort out his set of economic means, and he planned to try to promote it on Uranus and Neptune.

The voyage after leaving Saturn suddenly became far away. The distance from Saturn to Uranus is about the same as the distance from Saturn to the sun.

When astronomers discovered Uranus, it was equivalent to doubling the size of the solar system.

Uranus is also a giant gas planet, but it is only about 15% the size of Saturn.

Because of the methane in its atmosphere, the gas giant glows a beautiful blue, like a sapphire floating in a star field.

Most of the satellites of Uranus are ice structures, so there are many space cities in the Uranus civilization circle.

The construction of a space city requires a large amount of metals, almost all of which rely on imports.

Now the metal resources of the entire solar system country are relatively tight, so in the plan, only 3000 million people will be resettled on Uranus. Even if the population is the smallest, the construction progress here is far behind the Saturn civilization circle.

The living space of the residents here is smaller than that of the Saturn civilization circle.

In order to make this place develop faster, the executive government has invested in many hydrogen-helium mines on Uranus, and plans to build this place into the first secondary energy base in the solar system.

Many residents of the solar system countries realized that the solar system countries are so vast and have such abundant resources only after watching Jiang Yu's inspection report.

It's just that in the past, no one developed these resources.

Well now, the solar system country has put all its energy into developing the outer planets of the solar system in recent years. Now, beyond the orbit of Saturn, almost all of the solar system country’s territory.

Although the solar system countries failed to carve up much of the territory of the moon, they almost took the three outer planets into their pockets.

Fleet International still has not paid much attention to the development here, and they may never have a chance in the future.

National fortune is like this. Generally, after making a major mistake, you will have to pay ten times or a hundred times the price to become stronger.

It's not that Fleet International doesn't want to participate in this carve-up, but their economy is not optimistic and they are short of manpower.

Of course, the most important thing is that the conditions of the outer planets are too difficult, requiring huge investment, but the period of return is very long, no one is willing to invest in these places.

For them, the resource-rich Jupiter civilization circle is enough for humans to plunder for thousands of years, and there is no need to spend so much effort to develop the outer planets.

However, the investment model of the ruling government of the solar system country is different from theirs. It invests from a strategic perspective. It has long planned to not pay back its capital within 20 years for the construction of the three civilization enclosures other than Jupiter. .

After Jiang Yu and his party left Uranus, the number of battleships protecting him suddenly doubled!
Because there are many space pirates active outside the orbit of Uranus.

Before the countries in the solar system vigorously developed Neptune, it was not so much the frontier base of mankind as it was a den of robbers.

Most of the people who used to live in the orbit of Neptune were criminals or exiles.

There is also a part of people who don't want to live like pigs and want to come to this illegal place to have some fun.

Inspired by the "Dark Battle," their small pirate ships are armed with infrasonic hydrogen bombs.

When a merchant ship or cargo ship is found, an infrasonic hydrogen bomb will be launched immediately. If successful, they will get a complete ship.

The people on the spaceship being attacked will naturally be a situation where no one survives.

Immediately afterwards, the space pirates will demand a ransom from the company to which the spaceship belongs, or simply sell it to another company.

If the initial attack fails, the space pirates will use the maneuverability of the small spaceship to flee quickly.

The first administrators of Uranus and Neptune were soldiers who fought space pirates many times.

But the space is too empty, and the pirates have not been completely wiped out.

After the countries in the solar system began to operate Uranus and Neptune, all civilian ships had to form a fleet, escorted by warships to travel between them.

This is very inconvenient. Fortunately, the solar system countries have been producing a large number of small spaceships and small warships. For now, there are still enough escort warships.

It is the business model of these places, just like futures, there will not be a single merchant ship, and a large number will come as soon as they come.

The chief executive of Neptune is You Ze. This position will be very important in the future. Jiang Yu is a little worried about letting others run the business.

The first thing You Ze did after he came to Neptune was to invite more soldiers to come here to protect the safety of the immigrants.

In the case of extremely tight resources, You Zedu tightened his belt and first built two military fortresses.

This completely squeezed the space pirates out of Neptune.

Immediately afterwards, You Ze also faced the problem of shortage of metal resources, because Neptune and Uranus are not only similar in color, but even their satellites are similar.

It will take more than a year for the cargo spacecraft departing from the Jupiter civilization circle and the main asteroid belt to arrive here, but Neptune has to resettle 7000 million immigrants. Obviously, the distance cannot solve the near fire.

So You Ze applied for many mining platforms and went to the Kuiper Belt to collect metal resources "nearby".

Nowadays, with more and more mining platforms, Neptune's demand for metal resources is basically self-sufficient.

You Ze sacrificed the industrial chain established in the process of building residential areas, which also played a huge role at this time. There is no need to bring industrial products here from the distant Jupiter and the main asteroid, and the immigration has basically been completed. placement!

When visiting Poseidon City, Jiang Yu also met the officers of the original "Bronze Age"!
