Gold and Silver Alchemist

If you want to know the future, you have to look back at history.

Flies can be attracted when an expensive diamond ore is suddenly mined in an unremarkable mine.

Maybe it will lead to the end of war.

However, it doesn’t make sense if you can’t soak the intestines because you’re afraid of maggots.

“The miners will arrive in three days.”

The training of the golems will soon be over.

After making them the nationality of Nevis, I will put them right here in the mine.

And I’ll start mining right away.

“So, before that, pack your bags and go to Korea.”

“I see, Chairman!”

If a battle breaks out, President Park and Chief Kim will only get in the way.

And with 90 golems, the mine can be defended under any circumstances.

.

.

.

3 days passed.

Park and Kim have already returned to Korea.

Dozens of muscular miners stood around me.

Everyone was wearing hard hats and overalls.

“Start mining!”

“Yes, boss!”

Golems climbed onto mining rigs and trucks.

Dozens of mining equipment and trucks began to move over the kimberlite mine, which was dug into a large cone.

An area in which minerals to be mined is locally concentrated is called a deposit.

The primary process was to dig out the rocks of the ore with mining equipment and load them onto trucks to transport them to the factory.

Goo Goo-

The large rocks loaded by the truck went into the crusher.

Then, it was broken into suitable sizes and entered the separator.

In the separator, rough diamonds that had been mixed in the rocks were picked out.

The task of selecting high-quality gemstones that could be processed into jewelry had to be done manually.

The golems picked the rough diamonds and put them in the collection bin.

I checked the collection bin.

As expected, it was an insignificant mine, so there were only pea-sized gemstones.

Today is the start of mining, so it would be nice to have something big to commemorate.

‘But it’s a bit too big.’

hiss-

I took out a rough 1,200 carat diamond from my inventory.

and shouted out loud

“I saw the sim!”

.

.

.

The largest gem diamond ore ever discovered was ‘Cullinan’, mined in South Africa.

At 3,106 carats, it was the size of a human heart.

Only a handful of rough diamonds weighing over 1,000 carats have been found worldwide.

When such a large stone is found, it makes headlines in the newspapers.

＜Mining company KD mines 1,200 carat rough diamonds in Central Africa!＞

KD was the name of a mining company I owned.

After securing 100% of the shares, I changed the name of the company to my liking.

Of course, it is not related to the gold and silver room ＜Alchemy＞ in terms of management at all.

KD is owned by the Nevis Corporation, so no one knows that I am the actual owner of the company.

In any case, the world’s attention was focused on the 1,200-carat rough diamond and KD.

‘What will happen?’

Are there really any dung flies that will be greedy and attack the diamond mines?

If there is, what a big, smelly dung fly it is.

I deliberately worked hotly to find out quickly.

If it is a declaration ceremony that must be held anyway, it would be better to finish it quickly.

.

.

.

The 1,200-carat rough diamond was put up for auction, and the winning bidder was Jose Antonio, an independent businessman.

The winning bid was about 100 billion won in Hanwha.

Jose Antonio commissioned the Korean jewelry store Alchemy to process the raw diamond.

It was a condition that 50% of the net profit excluding the price of the rough stone was paid to Alchemy out of the sales proceeds of the diamond jewelry made by processing the rough stone.

For Alchemy, it was an incredibly good condition to earn tens of billions of won at once.

There is a reason Jose Antonio presented these conditions.

That’s because he was my ‘bukkae’.

I was in the middle of raising Alchemy’s sales by playing two roles by myself.

It will continue like this for the time being, but if Alchemy’s financial power rises above a certain level, it will directly participate in the auction and win the bid for rough diamonds worth hundreds of billions of won.

‘Let’s make it quickly, starting with 100 billion!’

The period set by the building owner’s grandfather is almost over.

We had to prepare 100 billion won to purchase the building, but we still lacked money.

In the meantime, I had been earning money by selling jewelry, but I was still in a situation where I had to raise another 50 billion won.

whiz-

Lee Seo-yoon was polishing a 1,200-carat rough stone while turning the grinder.

The finished jewelry must be sold for at least 200 billion won.

Only then can he earn 50 billion won, which is 50% of his net profit of 100 billion won, excluding the price of rough stones.

Since I have to pay taxes, I hope it sells for around 300 billion won.

‘by the way.’

Until now, there was no group of people attacking the diamond mine.

African governments that sold diamond mining rights also seemed to be satisfied with royalties and taxes.

What bothered me the most was the thousands of Africans crowding around the mines.

It was not uncommon for people to flock around the mine when a large ore was discovered anywhere in Africa.

This is because diamonds can sometimes be found in kimberlite mines, which are rich in diamonds, even dozens of kilometers away from the deposit.

You can see how desperate they are when they see people flocking to the wilderness in search of diamonds that may or may not exist.

‘Don’t just turn into a mob.’

.

.

.

Now that the gold and silver business has been handled to some extent, I will start my adventure again.

He immediately boarded a spacecraft and set off for the moon.

The distance from the surface of the Earth to the surface of the Moon was about 380,000 km.

It was so close that there was no chance to increase the rocket engine’s output to 100%.

After boosting the power to 10%, I hurriedly reversed the engine to slow down.

Eventually, within minutes of departing from Earth, the spacecraft landed in lunar orbit.

Jessica reported to me.

“We have arrived over the destination.”

The battle between the giants and Charles was on the far side of the moon.

The moon rotates at the same speed as it orbits, so only one side of the moon is always visible from Earth.

Therefore, the side seen from the Earth is commonly called ‘the front side of the moon’ and the opposite side is called the ‘back side of the moon’.

The far side of the moon was a mystery to people until the Soviet lunar probe ‘Luna 3’ took pictures of the far side of the moon for the first time.

So, it was used as a staple material in science fiction novels and movies.

There was also talk that the descendents of the German Nazis had built a space base on the far side of the moon.

hiss-

Added the ship to the inventory.

And I looked down at the moon from outer space.

When my parents died and I started living with my grandmother,

He would often wake up at night and cry.

Each time, my grandmother would carry me on her back and come out to the yard to soothe me.

Since I was in kindergarten, it was already very heavy.

Grandmother looked up at the dazzling moon in the night sky and said,

If you go to the moon, there is a jade rabbit standing on two feet like a human and pounding a mill.

He said that he was pounding herbs to make a ship as an errand by the immortals, and that whenever the jade rabbit pounded the mill, happiness would come out of the mortar and fall to the ground.

That’s why looking at the moon makes you feel at peace.

‘There is nothing.’

When I came to the moon myself, there were no jade rabbits living on the moon, and no space base built by the Nazis.

Whoops-

I descended towards a huge crater.

The far side of the moon was relatively smooth, while the far side of the moon had craters that were indented here and there.

chin-

Finally landed on the moon’s surface.

When I looked up at the sky, it was a dark outer space.

The reason the sky looks blue or red on Earth is because the sun’s light collides with the atmosphere and is scattered.

During the day when the sun is high, the length of light penetrating the atmosphere is short, making the sky appear blue.

On the Moon, where there is no atmosphere, the sky looks black, as it does now.

trudging-

I started walking while feeling the gravity of the moon, which is only one-sixth the size of the earth.

self-

At the same time, the footprints were erased with magic.

I don’t want to make a fuss about finding my footprints and finding traces of aliens when an expedition later comes here.

These days, the competition for lunar exploration among major powers has been very hot.

There are many reasons, but the biggest reason is because of the moon’s resources.

The most notable among them is helium-3.

As a raw material for nuclear fusion reactions, it is almost non-existent on Earth, but it is estimated that there are more than 1 million tons on the moon.

One gram of helium-3 can generate the energy of 40 tons of coal, and when converted into money, it amounts to about 700 won in Korean currency.

But I’m not going to mine helium-3 because I’m blinded by the tens of thousands of dollars.

Humanity does not yet have the technology to stably control nuclear fusion.

The competition between the great powers now taking place on the moon was a process of preparing for the future decades or hundreds of years later.

hiss-

I took out a golden chest from my inventory.

jing-

A thin beam of light emerged from the box.

It followed the light and moved to the center of the crater.

Then the beam of light pointed vertically down.

That there is something under the ground.

hiss-

I took out the ＜Magic Engineering Excavator＞.

Seoyeon Kim was in the cockpit.

As I got on board, the excavator’s Orichalcon drill began to spin.

“depart!”

“yes! president!”

Goo Goo-

An excavator dug into the lunar land.

The traces of the place where the excavator had passed were also erased with magic.

Goo Goo-

The excavator continued to descend.

“How far down have you been?”

“Passed the 3,000m point on the lunar surface!”

After digging further down for some time, the excavator suddenly began to free-fall.

It arrived in the underground space.

hiss-

Added excavator to inventory.

All around was complete darkness.

pat-

Created several large balls of light to illuminate the surroundings.

The light from the golden box was still pointing somewhere.

Follow the beam of light to reach the bottom of the underground space.

Armor and weapons were scattered around.

Inside the shattered armor was a human corpse that had hardened in a vacuum.

It must have belonged to Charles.

The giants’ armor was also scattered here and there.

But the giant’s corpse was nowhere to be seen.

Anyway, judging from the scenery here, it must have been a fierce battlefield where the battle between Charles and the giants took place.

But there is something strange.

‘Why did they fight in a place like this?’

It was not on the surface of the moon, and I did not understand why the battle was fought deep underground.

‘if···.’

The battle must have taken place in the subterranean space because something extremely important was here.

jing-

The light from the golden box pointed to something lying on the floor.

It was a large arched structure.

Seoyeon Kim saw it and opened her mouth.

“This is the arch that opens the teleportation gate! But seriously damaged!”

The arch was broken into dozens of pieces.

However, it can be completely repaired by using ＜Repair＞ magic.

But before that, there is something you must check.

“Where is the teleportation gate connecting to?”

Kim Seo-yeon opened her mouth after interpreting the ancient characters written nearby.

“It is a teleportation gate that connects to the giants’ home planet!”
