My supermarket is connected to all worlds, and I've won so much money handing it over to the st

"In return, I can give you a discount next time you come to buy something."

"Okay, okay, I'll help you stick it on the city wall of the Giant Kingdom so everyone can see it." The child in the red short-sleeved shirt reached out, took the poster, and crumpled it into his bundle.

Several giant children stood up together, and the courtyard was shrouded in shadow.

They carefully stepped over the courtyard wall, then quickly ran away chatting and laughing. Gu Xixi watched them leave before turning back to the supermarket.

"Xixi, I've already submitted the report. Professor Zheng and his team have a new spectrometer with added bands. They just left to test it by the river."

Zhao Jing returned and reported, and only then did Gu Xixi catch up with her.

She caught up with Professor Zheng and the others halfway there, and they returned to the riverbank together. Professor Wei and the others were already collecting river water samples, and when they saw Professor Zheng return, they helped with the collection.

After two hours of measurement, Professor Zheng still shook his head, "We still can't measure anything specific or draw an image. But what we can be sure of is that this planet, this continent, hasn't been harmed despite being so close to the sun and the moon, because of this 'cover' in the atmosphere."

"Based on my observations last night, this is another galaxy, different from our Milky Way. But the good news is, I made an unexpected discovery."

Professor Zheng suddenly became proud and pointed to the band interpretation on the machine.

"There are some precious metals in this area. Based on the wavelength, it should be palladium. Specifically, Chu Feng, take this detector and walk around to collect data on the surface content and other information."

Chu Feng immediately went to do it.

Gu Xixi only had some written knowledge about palladium, such as that it was a transition metal in Group 10 of the fifth period of the periodic table and belonged to the platinum group elements.

It can adsorb gases such as hydrogen and oxygen, with a strong ability to adsorb hydrogen. It is corrosion resistant and only soluble in oxidizing acids and molten alkalis.

Palladium is an indispensable key material in high-tech fields such as aerospace, aviation, navigation, weaponry, and nuclear energy, as well as the automotive manufacturing industry. For example, palladium's most common use is in catalytic converters, which can convert up to 90% of all harmful gases in automobile exhaust into less toxic substances.

However, its reserves on Earth are extremely limited, with a concentration of only 0.0006 ppm on the Earth's crust, making it very difficult to collect.

The country is now vigorously developing aviation and space, and this resource is exactly what it needs right now. If this trip yields enough palladium, it will be a great success.

Twenty minutes later, the geography professor, based on Chu Feng's test results, presented the data: "According to my calculations, the palladium content in this area has reached an astonishing 0.67, which is a thousand times the content in our Earth's crust."

The higher the content, the lower the difficulty of collection, which means a significant reduction in collection costs, saving a lot of money for the construction of the space city.

Wouldn't it be better to use the money saved to build more aircraft carriers or something else to provide greater protection for the people?

"This is the border between the two countries. If we need to collect a lot of resources, we'll still need to purchase land from both countries to avoid unnecessary trouble. We'll discuss the specifics after we've had more contact with the Giants and the Lilliputians in the next few days and figure out how to proceed legally."

Gu Xixi began to ponder.

"I would like to trouble you professors to compile a list of the areas where palladium can be collected. This will allow us to report the findings and, in case... it will also be helpful for negotiations."

"Okay, let's go and take care of this first."

"Then I'll contact Hyundai and report the situation."

The professors and Chu Feng acted independently, while the others followed to protect them.

Modern-day office of Mr. Chen.

Once Gu Xixi's product requirements were identified, he immediately made arrangements. The giants were 3-8 meters tall, and the modern large snack versions were not big enough; the size had to be even larger.

It should be made according to people who are 6-7 meters tall.

Mr. Chen's assistant sent him the order list and dimensions for several products. After Mr. Chen confirmed them, he immediately sent them to the snack factory.

The head of the snack factory's production line received the order with a look of disbelief. "Giant bowl of jelly, 15 pounds each? Extra-large spicy strips, 90cm*120cm? And this spicy strip as thick as an arm, how am I supposed to make it flavorful... Not to mention this lollipop as big as a basketball, you want 5000 of each item first, really?"

There are also 0.5m x 0.5m "Good Friend" breads... such big loaves of bread...

Their boss must be out of his mind. Who would buy this thing? It can be big, but this is way too weirdly big.

The factory owner nodded seriously, "Don't ask, just do it. If you finish the work in the next two days, all employees who work overtime will receive triple pay for those days, plus three days of paid leave. Is that okay?"

The production line manager immediately changed his expression, "Yes, of course, we can do it right away."

Hahaha, hahahaha!!!

Meanwhile, on the other side, the space agency.

When Chief Engineer Yang, the top leader, received the news, the wrinkles on his face relaxed into a wide smile. He only said one thing: "With no worries about the future, accelerate the construction of Sky City!"

The atmosphere inside and out was filled with joy and high morale.

Online, after the space city project was showcased at the last exhibition, more and more people are checking the official Weibo account every day for any new information.

This is true not only domestically, but also internationally.

However, apart from the last announcement that they were going to do this, the official account has not revealed any other information, so all sorts of speculations have emerged, especially internationally where the controversy has intensified.

The official US government has also begun to question and warn China:

[China is suspected of researching and manufacturing a secret weapon with devastating destructive power, which violates international security law and... According to reports, the quantity of this weapon exceeds the standard range. Is China intentionally provoking global conflict...?]

According to the World Peace Organization... they are now demanding that China hand over its latest secret weapon for inspection, and after confirming its safety...

Netizens:

[I genuinely don't understand how the US has the nerve to say something like that. They're letting them inspect our secret weapons research? High EQ: Let me check if they're safe. Reality: They're giving us the technology; we want it for free.]

[Haha, everyone's figured it out, right? Besides, we don't even know what our secret weapon is. If you really want it, come find it yourselves.]

They're talking about themselves, aren't they? They're the ones harming the world, and they're the only ones concerned with themselves, yet they're interfering in other people's business. We'd better keep a close eye on the mechs, lest some people steal them.

We also believe in China, so please, America, stay away.

……

Soon, the Chinese government responded to their message: "We do not accept unreasonable demands, we do not accept the US's arbitrariness and its overstepping its bounds to judge our internal affairs..."

Every reply was an unvarnished, hard-hitting confrontation that got the reader's blood pumping.

[Exactly, they've gotten addicted to stealing things; they're doing it again.]
