Of course, the five sand worm larvae are all very capable of burrowing, and they all wander in the underground space thousands of meters or tens of thousands of meters deep, and ordinary cultivators, let alone fighting them, can't find them even if they are found. Therefore, there is no need to worry too much about their safety. As long as the sandworm larvae grow to the fifth level, their ability to protect themselves will be very strong, and their combat effectiveness will be greatly increased.

After the sand worm larvae grow to level five, there is also a great advantage, that is, their abdomen space can carry people. This means that if Xia Xingxiao needs to go deep underground, they can directly hide in the belly space of the sandworm larvae and dive underground. In this way, the range of adventures they can explore is greatly increased.

In other words, the hidden wealth of underground space is quite amazing. Many planetary surface deposits have been explored and excavated. Only underground spaces that are tens of thousands of meters deep, or even hundreds of thousands of meters, can be more abundant in minerals. With the current science and technology of human beings, it is generally only about 5,000 meters of excavation, and then it will stop digging because of the cost.

In addition, the underground space, in addition to minerals, is also very rich in various other kinds of wealth. Each planet is the result of the vicissitudes of the starry sky world, and who knows what kind of wealth they once buried? If they accidentally bumped into the tombs of one or two ancient cultivators, they would be developed. Many high-level cultivators are professional tomb robbers, just because the benefits of tomb robbing are too great.

Of course, these. It's a long way off. Xia Xingxiao can't do it yet. For the time being, the five sandworm larvae are most useful for providing Xia Xingxiao with energy and life supplies. In addition to this, it is their old business, prospecting and mining. Fourth-level sandworm larvae, supported by the power of the powerful stars. It is already possible to drill to a depth of about 30,000 meters underground.

At this depth, due to the increase in pressure, most of the minerals. The purity is very high, and the density is also very high. The amount of material contained in the same volume of minerals. It will increase dramatically. And it just so happens that the abdominal space of the sand worm larvae is calculated in terms of volume. With the same volume, the higher the density and the higher the purity, the greater the value of the mineral. In other words, with the continuous improvement of the level of sandworm larvae and the continuous expansion of the volume of abdominal space, the value created by sandworm larvae will greatly increase.

"I don't know how many minerals these five guys have collected, I hope they don't be lazy......" Xia Xingxiao's upgrade speed to the five sandworm larvae. Quite satisfied. Attention has also begun to be paid to the results of their previous work.

As a result, I don't know if I don't see it, and I am shocked when I see it. He retrieved the relevant information from his own sea of knowledge. The discovery of these five sandworm larvae, unconsciously, has actually collected tens of thousands of tons of high-purity minerals. These high-purity minerals are all piled up in an underground space. It is estimated that it is necessary to use the professional ore carrier of my father's company to move it out at one time.

According to his most preliminary estimates. If these high-purity minerals are transported to Egret Star and put into large quantities, the mineral market of Egret Star will cause a lot of shock. If all of them are put into the market at one time, it is estimated that the entire mineral market of Egret Star will be suppressed. From the perspective of livelihood, as long as there are these five sandworm larvae, he doesn't need to worry about money in the future.

After reaching the fourth level, the five sandworm larvae each have a loading capacity of 400 cubic meters in their respective abdomen. Due to the minerals they collect, the purity is very high and the density is very high, and every cubic meter of minerals weighs more than a hundred tons. This means that they can take more than 40,000 tons of minerals at a time. And, in just three days, it can be filled.

...,

Based on the average price of 500,000 star coins per ton of minerals, that is 20 billion star coins. The sum of the five sandworm larvae is 100 billion star coins. You can earn 100 billion star coins every three days, and you can earn 1 trillion star coins in a month. Such a large number can no longer be measured by star coins, and should all be calculated using dragon coins. One trillion star coins, that's 10,000 dragon coins.

"Damn, so much little money! How can I spend it?" Xia Xingxiao suddenly found that his small amount of money seemed to be a little too much. A month is a net income of 10,000 dragon coins, and a year down, it is a net income of hundreds of thousands of dragon coins, and it seems that no matter how you spend it, you can't spend it all. Pickling girls can't use so much money at all, and they can't spend so much to buy space yachts, cruise ships, or whatever.

With so much money, it feels like it can only be spent on building space battleships, space fighters, or mechas. Especially space battleships, which are definitely the most expensive. An ordinary destroyer will cost hundreds of thousands of dragon coins. If it's a Star Destroyer, it's estimated to cost hundreds of millions of dragon coins. Of course, if you use it to buy a private planet, the difference is even greater.

Having an independent planet has always been one of Xia Xingxiao's dreams. It's just that before, this dream was too illusory, and he never dared to imagine that he could really do it, so he just thought about it casually, and gave up after thinking about it. Now, with the rapid increase of small money, this dream seems to have the possibility of realizing it again. He could seriously look forward to it.

Starry Sky World, there are many ownerless planets. They are either unsuitable for human habitation, or have no minerals, or have no scenic spots, anyway, they belong to the category of no use. This category of the planet, most of the countries, are allowed to be sold privately. As long as you want to, and you can afford it, you can have all kinds of planets as big as Jupiter, as small as about the size of a meteorite. The super-rich in the starry sky are embarrassed to greet people if they don't own a private planet or two.

The private planet, like a private villa or private resort in the ancient earth era, is an important symbol of identity and status. Living with your own family, welcoming relatives, sending off friends, and negotiating with business partners can all be done on your own private planet. This is not only a performance of face, but also a performance of specific strength. At the same time, convenience and privacy can be greatly increased.

However, the cost of buying a planet is only the first step in a long journey. After the planet is purchased, the follow-up costs are the majority. To build a planet with a harsh environment and little value into a planet that is valuable, can be lived, can be played, and can be used as a "villa", the cost is not ordinarily small. The cost of transforming the atmosphere alone is calculated in terms of tens of thousands of dragon coins.

On top of that, private planets have to be equipped with private weapons that are strong enough to keep them safe. Generally speaking, the country where the private planet is located can protect the security of the private planet to a certain extent. However, this is in the nature of a mercenary and is subject to payment. Moreover, this fee is often high, sometimes ridiculously high. Many rich people feel that it is not cost-effective, or they do not want to be slaughtered, so they simply form their own personal guards. And to form a private guard, that's a lot of money.

The biggest expense of the private guard is definitely all kinds of warships. If you want to ensure the absolute safety of your private planet, a large warship is absolutely indispensable. At the very least, you'll have to have several frigates or destroyers to keep yourself safe. Otherwise, if a space pirate appears and attacks you, your losses will be great. If one is not done well, even his own life will be lost.

...,

Of course, it would be better if it could be equipped with larger cruisers or battleships. These large warships are not only very capable of fighting, but also have strong survivability. If you find that the situation is not right, you can immediately flee to the cruiser or battleship, start the time jump, and escape as much as possible. As long as you don't lose your life, then everything will be easy.

Generally speaking, it is impossible for a space pirate to pursue a rich man who is desperately running away without a deep hatred. Because, once a cruiser or battleship makes a space jump, the distance it can move is too great. He could have gone from one country to another and sought the protection of the armies of other countries. No matter how strong the space pirates are, they can't compare with the regular armies of those big countries!

Xia Xingxiao roughly calculated, if he wanted to get a private planet the size of a moon and transform it in various ways, it would probably cost about 50 million dragon coins. If you have a personal guard, it will probably cost about 100 million dragon coins. Of course, if there are 500 million dragon coins, the budget will be even more abundant. If you have more than one billion dragon coins, you can basically equip large cruisers or battleships.

The cost of an ordinary submarine hunting is about 50,000 dragon coins. The cost of the frigate is about 500,000 dragon coins. The cost of the destroyer is about five million dragon coins. The cost of the cruiser was about 50 million dragon coins. The cost of the battleship was about 500 million dragon coins. Of course, these are the prices of the general configuration. If a higher-level configuration is required, the cost will also increase.

From the perspective of the growth of the five sandworm larvae, each time the level is raised, the efficiency of refining minerals will be greatly improved, that is, the income will continue to increase. By the time they reach level ten, their income is very considerable. By that time, this small amount of money would be enough to buy several cruisers or a battleship.

In the future, as the level continues to increase, the number of warships that can be purchased will definitely continue to increase. By the time it reaches the twentieth level, it is estimated that the daily mineral income is not known to be hundreds of millions of dragon coins. It is estimated that by that time, a larger monetary unit will have to be developed. And the number of warships that Xia Xingxiao can buy must be a very big number.
