Chapter 1142 The concept of Moon Elevator

A moon elevator?When Tang Weijie heard Jiang Chen’s proposal, he first took a moment to digest this information, then joy was his immediate reaction.


“A moon elevator? I don’t have any opinions. It’ll be great for Lunar City! I have discussed this with people from several other departments a few days ago. If it is possible to connect the surface with the orbit with an elevator, the cargo handling efficiency of the city will at least double!”


Even without the efficiency gain, an elevator would save a countless amount of energy.


Future Heavy Industries already acc.u.mulated a wealth of experience in the construction of Celestial City. The construction of the elevator only 200 kilometers long could easily be completely even without the wreckage from the apocalypse.


After the tour, Jiang Chen strolled around the underground city while he discussed the construction of the moon elevator with Tang Weijie.


The elevator’s specifications would not need to be as large as the one on Earth. Even living s.p.a.ces could be omitted. Only four rotating counterweights would be needed at the end with s.p.a.ce for docking. The Moon still had a countless amount of s.p.a.ce for development, so development in s.p.a.ce wouldn’t be necessary.


What’s more, because there was no synchronous...o...b..t, the elevator couldn’t rely on the inertial force to maintain its balance. Hence, a project too large would drive up the cost. For Lunar City, with the goal to save costs, it would not be worth the trouble.



After the first day of the visit, the group took the elevator back to the surface. With Tang Weijie leading, Jiang Chen and Xia s.h.i.+yu went to the hotel.


Although living s.p.a.ces in the city were mostly concentrated underground, this was only the case for the average citizen.


After all, a trip to the Moon was difficult and rare. If it were possible, no one wants to live in a narrow “tunnel” and stare at a cold ceiling.


It was precisely because of this, as well as the high maintenance cost of the building on the surface, that the land price on the surface of the city was comparable to gold prices. Only the millionaires could afford to live inside a hotel on the surface. And those independent houses with lunar rovers, garages, and saunas were reserved for the wealthiest individuals.


As for private properties…


Sorry, there were no plans for building residential areas in Lunar City. All the properties for sale were underground at a depth of 500 meters and the price was often too high. The most peculiar thing was that… there was no supply even with at such outrageous prices.


Inside the steaming bath, Jiang Chen was enjoying a bath on the Moon while gazing at the distant blue planet, letting his mind drift off.


Bathing didn’t feel too different on the Moon. How much of his body is exposed is only dependent on the difference between body density and water density; it has nothing to do with gravity.


Just when Jiang Chen was zoned out, he heard clothes being taken off.


The clothes were placed in a basket and gentle steps were heard on the tiles. With the footsteps gradually approaching, a smile formed on Jiang Chen’s face. And soon through the mist, a smooth foot tapped on the surface of the water.


“It’s not hot, just come in,” Jiang Chen said.


Xia s.h.i.+yu’s face turned into the color of a ripped apple. She quickly sat in, covered her chest. She looked at Jiang Chen sitting across from her, biting her lips, and then whispered.


“I thought you were already asleep.”


“Almost fell asleep,” Jiang Chen smirked. “Now I can’t sleep at all. How do you plan to compensate me?”


Xia s.h.i.+yu rolled her eyes as she saw the sly written on his face.


After she hesitated for a moment, she finally overcame her shame and obeyed her heart. She slowly moved her thighs and sat closer to Jiang Chen. The moment she pressed her face against his chest, she felt as if her pounding heart was about to escape her body.


It took a while before her pumping heart gradually calmed down.


A meteorite pierced through s.p.a.ce and landed not far away from their window.


Holding Xia s.h.i.+yu’s slender shoulder and gazing at the dust floating outside due to the meteorite’s impact, Jiang Chen was emotional.


“Only if I could move the Holy s.h.i.+eld.”


“The Holy s.h.i.+eld?” Xia s.h.i.+yu moved her head and did not understand.


“Accurately speaking, it’s called the Holy s.h.i.+eld System. There were some important cities in the apocalypse such as w.a.n.ghai and Shangjing projected by this system. It is like the s.h.i.+eld outside a s.p.a.cecraft in sci-fi movies. Pan-Asia Cooperation was invested in defensive technology, but so far, the scientists that I have raised have not been able to fully understand the technology.” Jiang Chen sighed with regret.


Perhaps she was teased by a particular word but Xia s.h.i.+yu began to giggle. She buried her face against Jiang Chen’s shoulder as she began to shake.


“Raising scientists… hahaha…”


Hey, this is not that funny…


Jiang Chen had a helpless expression on his face as he watched how difficult it was for Xia s.h.i.+yu to contain her laughter


“I’m raising them. When I pay them their salary each month, I always ask if they want money or food. However, they usually don’t say anything. Instead, they just pick up the bag of rice and the box of canned meat and then go home happily.”


With Project Garden of Eden, even survivors in slums occasionally enjoyed delicate flour food, but food remained one of the most heavily sought-after commodities on the wasteland. Even with the occasional depreciation of the credit, the amount of food consumed rarely changed.


It was better to sell the extra food at the Sixth Street than to directly accept credits as a salary.



After he soaked for more than an hour, Jiang Chen’s exhaustion disappeared.


He took a long time in the change room before coming out while stretching.


It was 7:00 at night in Xin and there was a banquet waiting for him.


Entrepreneurs with a total investment of more than 1 billion New Xin dollars in Lunar City would be present, as well as top figures of the city. The purposes of this banquet were to celebrate the permanent population of Lunar City reaching more than 30,000, then to celebrate the construction of the first battles.h.i.+p of the Earth Fleet, and lastly to welcome “Lord” Jiang Chen’s visit to the city.


No doubt, the last reason was the most important one.


For those capitalists chasing behind Celestial Trade, Jiang Chen’s existence could be compared to a breathing gold mine. The capitalists would be extremely satisfied to have a chat or a drink with him to make this trip worthwhile.


If he casually pointed to a direction on the Moon, revealing the next area of expansion of the city, the move alone would create a few millionaires.


Naturally, when he walked into the banquet hall with Xia s.h.i.+yu, they immediately became the focus of the entire banquet…
