Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System-Chapter 719 - 675: No Way!!

"A great opportunity? What kind of opportunity? Could it be endless mineral resources? If that's the case, I'm definitely willing."

After Lin Yi finished speaking, Lao Hu's eyes noticeably lit up.

The initial displeasure vanished completely, and he stared at Lin Yi with an expression that was brimming with excitement.

For a material engineer, what he craves the most is endless materials.

That's exactly why, upon hearing Lin Yi's words, he didn't hesitate to blurt out the above statement.

Seeing his excited look, Lin Yi nodded directly, his expression turning serious as he said:

"Yes, you're absolutely right. If you seize this opportunity, you could easily acquire any kind of material you desire in the future.

Don't just count on Earth's materials; even the rarest minerals would be at your disposal, endless and inexhaustible.

How about it, do you want to seize this chance?"

After saying this, Lin Yi paused briefly, then slapped his forehead as if realizing something, and said:

"Oh, right, I got so caught up talking about the advantages that I almost forgot the main point.

There's one more thing I should clarify with you in advance.

The opportunity is rare, but the working environment is notably harsh. It's something that most people can't endure."

But before Lin Yi could finish his words, Lao Hu already slapped his thigh vigorously, his face full of excitement as he loudly said to Lin Yi:

"Go! No problem, President Lin, just say the word, and tell me where it is—I must go! Even in a harsh place, I can handle it. Please arrange for me to transfer there immediately."

Honestly, Lin Yi never expected such a strong reaction from him.

Originally, it was just a little joke meant to tease him a bit. Unexpectedly, he took it seriously and was so eager to go to that place.

Where was the place I mentioned? Is that even a question? Of course, it's the lunar base.

I hadn't planned on sending this guy up there, but seeing his look, I wanted to tease him a little, hoping he wouldn't be so caught up over the scarcity of materials.

Who knew this guy would agree without even asking about the work location.

This left Lin Yi no choice but to shake his head helplessly. Then he directly said:

"Anywhere you'd go? What if I tell you the place is the moon? That you'd be going to the lunar base? Are you still willing?

That place is very desolate, and once you're up there, apart from you as a human, there might be no other human there.

With such conditions, do you still dare to go now?"

After saying this, Lin Yi looked at him with a smirk, obviously wanting to see him make a fool of himself. In Lin Yi's mind, anyone would refuse if they heard they had to go to the moon.

After all, the moon is a barren area for humans today.

And it's a wasteland.

Being there, one might not even make it back alive, which is what a normal person would think.

Precisely because of this, Lin Yi was 100% sure that when he mentioned the moon, the person would immediately realize it was a joke, and he would refuse.

However, just as Lin Yi was thinking this, the other person's words suddenly reached Lin Yi's ears, directly and with no hesitation, he said:

"Go! I must go! Don't just talk about the moon, President Lin, even if you toss me to Mars, as long as I have enough material for research, I'll go."

These words were said so straightforwardly, there wasn't any hesitation.

What confused Lin Yi was the seriousness of his expression when he said this, not at all looking like he was joking.

For a moment, Lin was puzzled—is this guy's acting so good that I can't tell if he's joking?

But it doesn't look like it at all.

After a few seconds of confusion, Lin Yi finally said, somewhat incredulously:

"Are you joking with me? Looking at your expression, if you're not pursuing acting, it's really a pity."

Who knew that after Lin Yi said this, the other person immediately interrupted him:

"No, President Lin, I'm not joking with you; I'm serious!

If you're willing, you can send me to the lunar base right away.

Rest assured, I'll certainly take good care of the base for you."

This behavior completely baffled Lin Yi.

He looked at the other person with confusion, his playful expression turned serious, stared into his eyes, and seriously asked:

"Are you sure you're serious?

You must know that if you really get to the moon, you'll be far away from our mother planet.

Which means, there might be a time when you are the only human existing on the moon's surface. That kind of desolation, that loneliness, you can't even imagine right now.

And if you really get to the moon, what about your family? Would your parents at home agree?"

As Lin Yi said, humans are essentially social animals, and when someone arrives at a deserted location, they'll naturally panic.

This isn't just a matter of courage; it's an inherent human issue.

If it's only for a day or two, it might be fine, but over time, it's bound to cause issues.

Although in Lin Yi's plan, reaching the moon was inevitable, it wasn't something urgent for now.

Lin Yi even thought that one day there would be plans for lunar migration.

But, that day wouldn't be anytime soon, at least not until after the completion of the third phase of base construction.

So far, only the first phase of construction is completed.

Although the first phase guarantees humans can survive up there, it's definitely not as free as being on Earth.

According to Lin Yi's plan, his three-phase layout aims to construct a base that at least allows humans to live normally.

Which means humans should be able to move freely across ground sufficient for living needs without any space suits.

To say something without exaggeration,
