Chapter 717, Sarutobi Hiruzen’s request
Chapter 717, Sarutobi Hiruzen’s request
After the three of them chatted outside for a while, they returned to Konoha Village together.
Soon Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was working in Konoha Village, received the news that Xu Qiang had returned to the ninja world. He also knew that Xu Qiang had improved the Flying Thunder God technique, which would allow him to travel directly from the ninja world to Mars.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was really overjoyed after receiving this news. Originally, the strength of their ninja world was not as good as other countries. According to the information he knew, the other two forces already had colonial cities with tens of thousands of people on Mars, and they had begun to Send fleets to explore Jupiter's asteroid belt and build new colonies at will.
And their Konoha Village can only barely establish a colony on Mars. If they fly to Jupiter again, although they can get there, their industrial strength cannot provide materials to build a colony.
Until now, they have been working overtime, buying steel equipment everywhere, and using ninjutsu and magic to basically double their steel production every year. But the foundation is so poor that now they only have more than 2 million tons of steel production capacity.
If this were in Xu Qiang's world, no other country would be afraid except the Celestial Empire. It would be enough for the country's development, not to mention that the Ninja World's population is only 3 million, which on average is already the same as the Celestial Empire.
But for the ninja world that has entered the Sky Age, this steel production capacity is nothing. Mitsushimura Danzo spent more than 100 million tons of steel to build a space station on the moon. This is still the first phase of the project. If Shimura follows Danzo's plan to build a space station on the moon into a space city would require at least several billion tons of steel production, so one sky city alone would consume several years of the steel production capacity of the ninja world.
Not to mention, they want to mass-produce spacecraft and machinery for industrial expansion. However, their opponents are far superior to them in terms of industrial production capacity. Sarutobi Hiruzen received the news that the Dragon Kingdom's steel production capacity is 5 million tons, and due to the development of outer space, the production capacity is still expanding rapidly, and the Western Alliance has a steel production capacity of more than 10 billion tons, which is far from being tolerated. The world can be compared, if they don't have a lot of gold, and they are also willing to spend gold, each spending more than 1000 tons of gold, allowing them to purchase a large amount of materials from other continents, but even so, the current development of the ninja world in outer space On the other hand, industrial production capacity has been severely hampered.
And now we know that Xu Qiang can open a space gate directly from the ninja world to Mars. This is a transportation advantage for Konoha Village. Other forces still need to build a large number of spaceships to transport people and materials. But their Konoha Village can directly use Xu Qiang's Flying Thunder God Technique to bring ninjas to Mars, and then let the ninjas who go to Mars bring space scrolls. This saves even the transportation of supplies. With Xu Qiang's technology, Even if the industrial production capacity of the ninja world is not as good as other forces, they will not fall behind in this colonial competition.
When Xu Qiang returned to the ninja world, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately came to Xu Qiang's home and said to Xu Qiang, "Senior, now we have fallen behind in this colonial competition. Now in the Kingdom of Dragon, they have gone to find their predecessors to dig for gold." area, if they find the golden asteroid like their predecessors, it will be a huge harm to the current ninja world."
Xu Qiang knew a little about this, so he replied, "Sarutobi, are you afraid that they will find a gold asteroid and cause the price of gold to plummet?"
When he first found the golden asteroid, why did he only take out 10 tons of gold? The reason was that Xu Qiang was stingy, but Xu Qiang also knew that a large amount of gold appeared in the world, and the emergence of so much gold at once would disrupt the currency. After all, this Countries around the world use gold as their currency.
Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that Xu Qiang understood his difficulties, so he continued, "Now, our ninja world spends more than 1 tons of gold a year, buying supplies from other continents, so that we can barely catch up with them, even if That's right, our ninja world is still at a disadvantage in terms of strength. If they really find the golden asteroid, then the gold in our ninja world will be worthless, and we can no longer continue to buy materials from other continents, such as steel. The world has to purchase more than 1 million tons a year. If there is no gold, how can we buy steel from other continents? Without steel, we will continue to build spaceships, space stations and colonial cities."
Xu Qiang asked, "What do you want me to do to dig out gold asteroids in Jupiter's asteroid belt in advance?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and said, "If you can do it, that would be the best. But what I want you to do most now, senior, is to use your Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport our ninjas from the ninja world to Mars." "
Xu Qiang thought for a while, and based on his current level, he could transport 10 people at once by using the planet-level Flying Thunder God Technique. So he said, "There is no problem in bringing a few people there, but we have just established a colony on Mars. If we bring too many people, I am afraid that the colony on Mars will not be able to mature."
When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard that Xu Qiang did not refuse, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Senior, don't worry, I have asked Cheng Shui to expand the agricultural production capacity on Mars, and I will also ask the ninjas on Mars to bring space scrolls. , in this way, some materials can be transported to Mars to supply them, and this multi-pronged approach can allow them to quickly expand their manpower on Mars."
Xu Qiang did not expect that Hiruzen Sarutobi was so generous and actually asked every ninja to bring a space scroll. You must know that space scrolls are still very rare in the ninja world. You can see it clearly in the original plot. None of the three protagonists has it. Except for Tiantian, a rich woman, no one else has a space scroll. Among other ninjas, only Hatake Kakashi, an elite at the Jonin level, has a space scroll.
From here you can see the rarity of the space scroll. This is still the poor ninja in the original plot, but in the world changed by Xu Qiangmo, ninjas are not poor. The world of Jonin Industrial Power has become powerful, but there has not been much progress in the technology of this kind of space scroll. In the world where rich ninjas expand , but the space scroll improved faster.
So much so that it is now difficult for even jounin to obtain a space scroll. After all, the jounin group has expanded dozens of times, but the production of space scrolls has only expanded several times. Therefore, all ninjas who have space scrolls now have money man.
And now Sarutobi Hiruzen asks every ninja who goes to Mars to bring space scrolls. This is not 1 or space scrolls, but tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of space scrolls. This is a demand Spend all the space scrolls in the ninja world.
