Chapter 242 Electromagnetic gun, surveillance, Windsor Castle(1/4)

 Zhou Jimin, who had no idea about this, went to the dock after leaving the castle that night.

The pier is still very lively.

But compared to the hustle and bustle during the day, the night is relatively deserted.

Densely packed oil tankers are arranged neatly and orderly, with oil tankers ranging from tens of thousands of tons to hundreds of thousands of tons distributed in different areas.

Zhou Jimin is targeting super tankers of hundreds of thousands of tons, and they are tankers with deep drafts.

Because the water is deep, it means there is something inside, otherwise his trip would be in vain.

The first supertanker he patronized was the one that had just arrived at the port during the day and was supposed to be sold to him.

He paid a deposit, but he only signed for 45,000 tons of crude oil, and he still had 255,000 tons left.

"Well, it's really cool to be able to take away this crude oil without paying any money."

The supertanker had a total of six oil tanks, each containing 50,000 tons of crude oil, and he emptied them all.

Originally, he thought about stealing the tanker by the way, but the target of the tanker was too big, and there were people on the tanker.

Stealing the oil from the tank secretly would not alarm anyone, but taking away the oil tanker would definitely be shocking.

Therefore, Zhou Jimin would not do such a stupid thing.

Accompanied by the busy sounds at the dock, he had already arrived at the mouth of the next supertanker's oil tank, reached in with his big hand, and soon it was all empty.

For more than half an hour, he quickly stole the crude oil from several super tankers. There were still a few ships left, all of which were empty. He could only secretly complain about his bad luck.

At this time, there are already millions of tons of crude oil in the space, occupying a large space.

Fortunately, the space has been expanded, so there is no need to worry about not being able to fit it in.

He spent about an hour taking some of the remaining small tankers, bringing the crude oil reserves in the space to 1.55 million tons, and then stopped.

It wouldn't work if he didn't stop, because the rest were all small oil tankers. If he ran near the mouth of the oil tank, he would be easily discovered by the people on the ship.

For the sake of a long-term solution, he could only give up temporarily.

After leaving the dock and returning to the farm without any danger, he entered the space and started refining crude oil.

As we all know, there are two main types of aviation fuel used by airlines: aviation gasoline and jet fuel, which are suitable for different types of aircraft engines.

The former is used as fuel in piston aero engines, and is more commonly used in helicopters, communications aircraft, weather machines, etc.

Jet fuel is also called aviation kerosene, or aviation fuel for short.

There are so many benefits to this thing, such as good low temperature resistance, stability, evaporation, lubricity and non-corrosiveness, not prone to static electricity and low risk of fire.

For an aircraft flying at an altitude of more than 10,000 meters, the engine must adapt to bad weather with low oxygen, low temperature and air pressure at high altitudes. Therefore, the fuel requirements should also be clear and transparent, free of suspended and settled mechanical impurities and

Moisture, etc.

However, jet fuel is extracted from crude oil through direct refining and secondary processing. Generally, the output is not high, accounting for only more than ten percent of crude oil.

In other words, aviation fuel not only has high requirements, strict production processes, but also low output.

This is also one of the reasons why it is difficult for the mainland's civil aviation industry to develop because the cost is too high.

For Zhou Jimin, refining jet fuel is naturally very simple, it just requires consuming a certain amount of spatial energy.

As a wealthy man, he is not afraid of these expenses now.

Now is the aircraft testing stage, and there is an urgent need for a large amount of jet fuel, so he must refine the 1.5 million tons of crude oil into jet fuel as soon as possible.

With the help of space energy, we can only extract 300,000 tons of aviation fuel, which is not much more than ordinary machines.

It’s not that the special energy is not powerful, but the requirements for aviation fuel are too high. There are many impurities in crude oil, and it is impossible for all of them to be useful substances.

After refining, it does not mean that these semi-finished products can be used. Additives including antistatic agents, antioxidants, anti-wear agents, anti-icing agents, metal passivators, etc. need to be added to them.

At this point, it is completely completed.

After finishing this, Zhou Jimin was extremely tired. Looking at the more than one million tons of leftovers, he could only pile them in the corner of the space and wait until he had time to deal with them.

He spent the next two days in lectures. When Roger Penrose and others asked him what he was considering, he said he was seriously considering it and told them not to worry.

He really mastered the dragging technique.

The recent foggy city police are working very hard.

Not only do I have to keep an eye on the museum and deal with the idiots who come to the police station with fake gadgets to collect rewards, but I also have to follow up on the theft of crude oil at the dock. It’s really an eventful time.

The police officers who have not experienced autumn in the foggy city for many years, in this September, they really felt it.

Douglas was also on the verge of crying, and was almost scolded by Zhou Jimin, a thief who called "catch a thief."

The first thing was naturally that the crude oil was stolen, which prevented delivery on time, leaving Zhou Jimin with no choice but to park the empty ship at the dock.

The second thing is about the supertanker. It was originally a good thing, but the asking price was too high.

With such an ugly appearance, Zhou Jimin naturally wouldn't spoil him and started scolding him directly.

Even, he scolded him so hatefully that he vented his anger.

At the same time, the original guilt for stealing the crude oil disappeared.

The capitalist is not worthy of pity. His act of stealing oil can be regarded as a different kind of 'robbing the rich and giving to the poor'.

After scolding him, Zhou Jimin originally thought that the matter was over. Unexpectedly, the other party contacted him again the next day and was willing to lower the price.

"How much can it be reduced?"

If the price is right, then he will definitely be willing to discuss it.

Super tankers are difficult to manufacture, and the mainland should be in great need. He can purchase such tankers, then take back the space and control the technology.

At that time, the relevant cost technology will be re-verified and calculated before being released. In this way, more costs can be saved by manufacturing in the mainland.

After all, there is still a shortage of super tankers in the mainland.

In later generations, there were 119 oil tankers in the mainland. The huge scale of oil tankers formed a huge maritime lifeline, transporting a steady stream of crude oil to the mainland.

Due to the bottleneck, even though several oil pipelines have been built, the mainland has still not given up on using supertankers to transport crude oil from South America, Tuao and other regions.

Therefore, from this aspect, the mainland's demand for supertankers will continue.

"Seventy percent?"

After hearing Douglas's response, Zhou Jimin lost the desire to continue the conversation and hung up the phone directly.

The former was stunned when he heard Dudu's voice.

Damn it, if you don’t want to buy it, don’t buy it. We can talk about it. How can anyone do business like this?

However, people in Fogdu have all kinds of personalities. Isn’t it normal to meet a weird ‘Peter’?

Thinking of boss Martin's death order, Douglas had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue calling Zhou Jimin.

The latter had already returned to Cambridge University to attend the last lecture.

He is not the lecturer today, he is just here to listen to the lecture and communicate with others.

During the time he came to Wudu for exchanges, he received a lot of inspiration, so he cherished such exchange opportunities.

It is not advisable to work behind closed doors. Necessary communication is the key to progress.

However, before the lecture started, someone passed a notebook with a pen on it and wrote a sentence, I am Megan, Professor Zhou, can we have dinner together at noon?

Something as exciting as passing notes to the teacher in class should be fun, right?

Zhou Jimin didn’t know Megan’s little thoughts, but he just put the notebook aside and had no intention of replying to her.

Because the lecture has begun.

Meghan, who was in the third row behind, didn't receive a reply, so she had to look at the podium.

Halfway through the lecture, Zhou Jimin lowered his head and began to write and draw.

Duan Xuefu next to him glanced at it and was instantly surprised when he saw the title, and then felt very relieved.

He is indeed a super mathematical genius. He can write a paper after listening to a lecture.

In fact, what Zhou Jimin wrote was not a paper, but a calculation formula to verify a process.

Many mathematical problems can be divided into small problems, and the verification and calculation can be demonstrated one by one, and finally the entire verification process can be completed.

Even if the Millennium Problem in later generations is the same, many people look confused when it comes to it, but as long as you are a mathematician, you will know that some of the problems have been split into several subdivided problems.

As long as these big problems are solved, the entire series of demonstration work may be completed.

Of course, things are not that simple. The later steps are more difficult.

Megan, who was in the back row, didn't notice Zhou Jimin's movements. She was listening carefully to the lecture, because what the professor on the podium said gave her a feeling of ecstasy.

The problem that troubled her was almost solved.

So she can't be distracted by other things.

As time went by, Zhou Jimin became more and more excited as he wrote. He felt that he had reached a certain point and could complete the difficult problem of the existence of gauge fields and the assumption of mass intervals.

Although this theoretical structure was proposed ten years ago, no one has yet been able to unravel it.

In later generations, it directly became a millennium problem.
