Yu Gong Plan site.
Now this massive project is nearing its end.
More than 1.6 billion tons of materials from the Primordial World have either been transported to Great Xia or are on their way.
The iron mountain, originally nearly a thousand meters high, now only has a "base" left at the bottom, about a hundred meters tall.
The highest commander of the Jiuzhou Legion, Commander Wu Dingtian, was chatting with his deputy, Colonel Ding.
"The aerospace department has used the extracted Spirit Iron to develop an ultra-high strength alloy. Engineers have simulated it using software; using this alloy to make landing gear for large airplanes could potentially reduce the weight by over 80%."
"80%? That's not a small amount! I recall an over-80-ton large airliner having 1.8 tons for its landing gear, which means a reduction of over 1.4 tons, allowing the airliner to carry 1.4 tons more of payload."
