Xu Qiang smiled and said, "Of course this is a good idea, but there are too many meteorites and asteroids, and the bigger the spacecraft is, the less safe it is. Only in recent years have we discovered that spaceships of about 10,000 tons are the safest and most flexible here. The accident rate is also the lowest.”

"Of course there are smaller spaceships, and they are safer, but the amount of ore transported is too small. After all, for gold mines, even 1000% is considered high-quality gold ore, but you have to Transporting 50 tons of gold ore, and only tons after refining, you won't make much money here. After all, the price of gold here is not even one-tenth of that in the Ninja world, but the price is dozens of times higher. So, Most of the spacecraft here have a mass exceeding kilotons."

Jiraiya and the others learned a lot after hearing Xu Qiang's words. Even if they dig dozens of tons of gold at a time, they can't make any money.

Along the way, Xu Qiang, Jiraiya and the others chatted about their experiences here, and it didn't take long before they arrived at the first golden asteroid. This asteroid is much smaller than Jiraiya and the others thought. It is only a few hundred kilometers in diameter. It is irregular and looks very small, but its gold content is not low. It has been dug up over the years and has 5% gold content. Around ten, the strength of the five ninja villages in the ninja world is here.

So there are a lot of spaceships parked near it, and its body is full of pits. These are leftovers from gold mining. And now Jiraiya and the others can see ninjas in spacesuits walking in and out of these mines, looking very busy.

"Wow, there are so many people here. I really want to go there and try digging." Yahiko shouted when he saw this lively labor scene.

Xu Qiang smiled and said, "I'll take you to dig next time. Forget it this time. My spaceship doesn't have a spacesuit. You have to go outside now. It's impossible to live in a vacuum for long."

Jiraiya saw the ninjas coming in and out, and found that basically all the ninja villages he knew seemed to have ninjas working here, because in the ninja world, every ninja village has its own unique ninjutsu. If it is not hidden deliberately, it is It is very easy to tell that he is a ninja from that ninja village.

"All the ninja villages in the ninja world are here" Jiraiya asked in surprise.

Xu Qiang replied, "Most of them are here. This golden asteroid was the first to be discovered, and half of it has been excavated. There are also two other golden asteroids. They were discovered late after all, and there are more ninjas."

Jiraiya said to himself, "No wonder, my money from the Ninja World has become less and less valuable over the years. It turns out that you dig so much gold into the Ninja World every year."

Xu Qiang didn't know what to say about this. Although the Ninja world's forces no longer have much demand for gold, they have also begun to dig for other rare minerals in the Ninja world, such as nuclear fuel and other ores.

But other small forces are still desperately digging for gold to the ninja world. According to Xu Qiang's estimate, the gold transported by the light ninja forces to the ninja world exceeds 50 tons every year. The ninja world uses gold as its main currency. Now more than 50 tons of gold are transported to the ninja world every year. The acquisition of so much gold is equivalent to an additional tons of gold currency in the Ninja World's economic circle every year. Even if the industrial output of the Ninja World is growing rapidly, it cannot be as fast as the inflow of gold from the Ninja World.

In recent years, due to the relationship between gold, the ninja world has entered an unprecedented period of inflation. In Xu Qiang's view, it is a bit like himself at the beginning of the 21st century during the reform and opening up of the Chinese dynasty. The faster the economy develops, the less valuable money becomes.

Xu Qiang estimated that the price of goods in the ninja world may exceed that of the protagonist Uzumaki Naruto, and Ceres is the first place in the ninja world where prices are close to his own, and the price of ramen here has reached 70 taels per bowl. And if the gold continues to be mined, the prices in the ninja world will soon increase the price of ramen to 70 taels per bowl.

So Xu Qiang could only say in embarrassment, "The higher-ups in the ninja world have discovered such a thing. Now we have begun to adjust the scope of mining and include other precious metals in the scope of mining. Reduce the inflow of gold."

But Jiraiya knew that this was of little use. They were in charge. The Ninja Village Alliance was in charge. Could it be that the Ninja Village Alliance was in charge? Although the number of bounty hunters who came here had not been seen, they probably would not be less than here. .

After Xu Qiang's spacecraft stayed here for a while, he determined that there was nothing going on here, then started flying towards the next location.

"Senior, don't tell me that 9% of the interstellar pirates in the ninja world are here. We have been flying for such a long time, why haven't we seen it?" Yahiko sat here for a while, he was bored looking at the meteorites, and realized that he was not thinking about it at all. There were interstellar pirates everywhere, so he asked Xu Qiang.

And Xu Qiang smiled and said to Yahiko, "Actually, it's not this journey. I just said that the spaceships here transport gold ore. Although the value is very high, as long as there are no Magnetic Ninjas among the pirates, they will not be able to transport the gold." After refining, these ores can only be sold to black market merchants at low prices, which is very uneconomical for them.”

"There is a factory on Ceres that specializes in refining gold. The gold mined here must be refined on Ceres, and then the formed gold is transported to the ninja world by transport spacecraft. Interstellar pirates usually bring it to Mars from asteroids. 9% of robberies occur during this journey. If it is too far away, the flight time is too long for pirates, and there is no place to sell stolen goods, so it is not cost-effective."

"And if the robbery is close, they can fly directly to the black market above the asteroid belt to sell the stolen goods."

"With the strength of our seniors, we couldn't discover the black market of these interstellar pirates," Nagato asked curiously.

According to what Xu Qiang just said, the black market of interstellar pirates is in this asteroid belt. With Xu Qiang's Flying Thunder God technique, he can definitely find out how it is possible for these black markets to still exist.

Xu Qiang could only say helplessly, "In this area, there are not only our ninja world's forces, but also other countries. These black Zetsu are either outside the scope of our ninja world's influence, or they are within the ninja world's influence." It’s not easy for me to appear on the fringe, as it can easily cause disputes.”

"And there are a lot of overt and covert fights between our three major forces. There are a lot of interstellar pirates who are the black hands of the other two parties, in order to attack our ninja world, so I have no regard for the interstellar pirates in our ninja world's sphere of influence. How to strike."

Yahiko asked strangely, "Senior, what do you mean? Why don't you fight against interstellar pirates?"

But Nagato beside him said thoughtfully, "Senior, what I mean is that the interstellar pirates in our ninja world's sphere of influence are our black hands, and the interstellar pirates in the other two sides are their black hands."
