Chapter 108: Mining Rig - Upgraded

"Alright. I think you got your lesson. Now tell me, what have you done with the stuff I left in the warehouse?" Zhang Qin Feng asked. He felt much better right now after teaching Marvin a lesson.

"I - I disassemble them to inspect the way it was built. The Main Chip was too built shabbily, so I used the Reprinter Unit to create a better version of Electronic Chip that can handle more stress."

"Right now, the performance of this Electronic Chip is much better compared to before. It can also accept the input of some of our own current technology, with lower power consumption," said Marvin.

"Lower power consumption? To what extent?" Zhang Qin Feng asked. Be it in the modern world or this post-apocalypse, electricity was the first and topmost crucial resource. Without electricity, almost nothing can be done.

"Have you seen the battery Valerian created through your instruction?" Marvin took something out from the storage box on top of his table. This was his first time looking at the battery he requested Valerian to make.

It was identical to an AA-Alkaline Battery from the modern world he came from, but that was the only similarity. In functionality, it was slightly different.

Since battery exhaustion is almost an inescapable fact, Valerian designed it to be rechargeable by exchanging the battery content.

With the Reprinter Unit working on the battery's housing and a professional Elemental Processor working on the elements, it allowed Valerian to quickly decides on a universal design.

A cylindrical design made it easier to roll and house the metal coil created from an alloy of Manganese-Carbide. Although the holding capacity of each battery was about half of the battery capacity of his mobile phone, it can be recharged limitlessly as long the equipment is present.

"If we're using the battery Valerian created, it can last for half a day before it exhausted. But if we put two batteries in operating it, it can last for an average of 24 hours before shutting down." Marvin said.

"Having two batteries is better than one? What's the logic behind this?" Zhang Qin Feng asked. Since he's not a professional, it was acceptable that he's clueless about how the power distribution works.

"That is because one battery is stretching the power too much. If it was operated with two batteries, the hardware could run smoother without an issue," Marvin answered in a term easy for people like Zhang Qin Feng to understand.

"Alright. So what have you done with the machine? Bring it out here so I can take a look." Zhang Qin Feng pulled a chair from nearby and took a seat as he anticipates what Marvin has done to the rig he used to mine the digital currency.

A box, about eight inches long, was placed on top of the table. The usage of the machine is still for data mining and processing, but it was built more compactly than before.

Because the Electronic Chip has been upgraded and rebuilt using a different material, the heat dissipation was twice as efficient as before. Furthermore, since all the parts were printed, this entirely new mining rig for data processing can be said to be tailor-made.

"You're not joking with me, right? This thing is like… a few hundred grams at most?" Zhang Qin Feng asked. It was revolutionary because this mining rig before him is like ten times smaller than before.

"Boss, you must be joking. It's just a hundred and sixty grams in weight, including the two batteries. Efficiency is twofold. The only bad part was because the entire casing was printed. Once broken, our only option is to recycle it and reproduce it out from the collected material again."

"What do you think?" Marvin said.

Although he had no idea why his boss needs so many data processing rigs, It is evident that this upgrade had more positive than negative parts.

"You know, Marvin… I start to think that I have to reward you for what you're capable of. From where did you come up with these ideas?" after he calmed down, Zhang Qin Feng started to notice that the benefit from having Marvin tinkered with his thing had more good than bad.

"The idea just came into my mind suddenly. Of course, part of the reason was from the limited data the Substance and Matter Printer can run at a time. I thought that if we can create a separate server with independent support control, this could help us to open another construction line."

"This way, we won't need the central console for each Substance and Matter Printer," Marvin said. His aim was big. If such a thought was applied to the modern world, there's no doubt that Marvin will become an upcoming pioneer in tech creation.

"Alright. You can keep doing what you like, but next time, be a little reserved." Zhang Qin Feng nagged as his heart still pained from the losses of all those Digital Keys stored inside each of the mining rig's memory.

Although they're worthless right now, in digital currency, a single change in the digit is equivalent to multiplying it by a million.

Taking what he had right now as an example, Zhang Qin Feng's digital wallet had about 30,000 WIFE-Coins. With the rate of 0.02 Dongcheng Cents per coin, it worth 6,000 Dongcheng dollars.

But what there's a change in the market?

In digital currency, having the rate multiplied by double or triple from its cent value was much easier than a flip of the palm. As long Zhang Qin Feng could keep the WIFE-Coins in his hand until it reaches half of the BEAST-Coin worth, he will get rich in a flash.

(In chapter 44, the BEAST-Coin has priced at 11 dollars a coin. So 30,000 Coins worth like 330,000 Dongcheng Dollars. Of course, this was just my own simplified version of digital currency trading, so don't take it seriously)

'With this new mining rig Marvin designed, hopefully, it will be much better than before. Let's just allow him to continue with what he was doing for now.' Zhang Qin Feng thought.

"By the way, boss. Do you know that inside the relics, there are some short-listed codes? I'm not sure if they're essential, so I had them saved inside this Silicon Nano-Drive. If you need, just slot the device you have in your hand, and it will transfer automatically."

"I think there are close to 25,000 codes in there? I wonder what they're used for. Each of them was unique." he added.
