On the neat workbench, precision-cutting lasers flew up and down, cutting one facade after another out of the huge olivine in the center.
Radiant cut is a perfect combination of princess cut and cushion cut in gemstone cutting methods. The four inclined corners are the biggest feature of this cutting method.
The original stone was carefully carved, losing its original appearance, and it shines brightly under the light.
In the gem world, peridot is known as the August birthstone. Its bright and pleasing olive green color is loved by people. It is also known as the stone of happiness, symbolizing happiness and harmony between couples.
There is definitely no problem in giving it as a gift to your girlfriend, that is, your future wife.
Xia Yu doesn't pay much attention to the meaning, just like he doesn't believe that diamonds represent love, but his feelings can be expressed through gems.
Here, this is for you. I picked it from the moon specially for you. You are not allowed to refuse it.
Taking off his goggles, Xia Yu took the dazzling peridot from the processing table and packed it together with another processed piece and put it into the space.
The analysis and processing of lunar soil samples is still ongoing. Humans absorb about 60 microsieverts of radiation per hour on the moon, which is about 200 times the radiation dose received on the surface of the earth. What is rare is that the lunar soil only contains some low-dose background radiation.
It doesn't matter if you hold it without gloves, which is why Xia Yu dared to give the olivine from the moon to his girlfriend. However, with the help of the advanced geological laboratory on the Prometheus, he was able to analyze something.
For example, the helium-3 resources on the far side of the moon are easier to mine, so we must drill more mines there in the future.
The resources on the moon belong to all mankind, but currently, apart from Luxembourg in Europe, no country has introduced a legal system to protect private investment in the resources mined in space.
Regarding this issue, Xia Yuyou communicated with the authorities and received a positive response. At least when Space Mining officially starts lunar mining operations in the future, there is no need to worry about this issue.
At the same time, due to the successful landing of Mining 1 on the moon, many countries have also begun discussions in this regard, because what was once impossible now seems to be getting closer and closer, and lunar mining production may really begin one day.
After returning to the island in the Amber Room, Xia Yu returned to the sunshine again. He still preferred places with sunshine.
"Buzz~~"
Amid the sound of waves hitting the beach, he seemed to hear a hint of noise. He looked into the distance and saw a small black dot in the distance getting bigger and bigger, and gradually turned into an airplane.
In the two-seater Harrier, it's Lao Xia and Elena, they are back.
After a while, the plane flew in front of them and landed vertically on the rooftop apron of the Industrial Museum under the control of Elena in the back seat.
The advantages of rappelling were immediately apparent. No runway or arresting ropes were needed, just a flat surface would do.
As for why it was Elena, considering Lao Xia’s level of skill after just getting off the simulator, this trip to sea was just to get familiar with the plane.
Without cheating, learning to fly is a very time-consuming and energy-consuming task. It took Xia Yu more than half a year to get a private license for a helicopter in China. Learning to fly a fighter jet... seems to be not that easy yet.
I have a lot of money and I am willful. There is a retired flight instructor at home, so I don’t expect to get a pilot’s license. I’ll just be an illegal pilot on the high seas!
Xia Yu came to the third floor of the museum and saw Old Xia climbing down the gangway, taking off his helmet and sweating profusely.
Whether learning to drive or fly a plane when you are older, it is definitely not as easy as for young people. Old Xia still has a long way to go if he wants to be as cool as old Larry.
There is definitely some danger, but if something goes wrong you can just eject. How much is an airplane worth? I have five Harriers at home!
Old Xia still has the amulet rewarded by the system on him, so he doesn't need to worry too much about it.
Besides, he is almost fifty years old. If he doesn't pursue his dream at this age, even if his health is still good in the future, he will not be able to get over it mentally.
Old Xia took this brave step this time, which can be regarded as overcoming his midlife crisis!
"Dad, how do you feel?"
Xia Yu went forward and wanted to help Old Xia, but he waved his hand to refuse.
"It's okay, but it's much harder to fly than a helicopter."
The last time Lao Xia came to Kana Island, he received helicopter training. Not to mention that he could get a private license in China, but at least he could fly a helicopter in good visibility weather, fly around the island and then land on the helipad.
It was with this foundation that he dared to challenge the Harrier flight.
"Instructor Elena, how is my dad doing?"
Xia Yu turned to Elena and asked, just like a parent and teacher asking about their child's grades.
"Sir, he's very talented in flying, but we still need some time. It took me six years from entering the aviation school to joining the fleet and becoming a qualified AV-8B pilot."
Six years is the standard for being able to engage in air combat. If it comes to just flying, about one year is enough. I guess Lao Xia won't be too bored during this year.
"I'll leave the teaching to you. I look forward to flying in the blue sky with my dad."
Xia Yu asked solemnly.
Dad can fly with confidence, knowing that his eldest son will always be with him. He is looking forward to that day, just like old Larry and his son, flying together for another thirty years, never admitting defeat, and never accepting old age!
"Well, I mainly want to take your mom flying. Your planes are too fast."
Old Xia interjected, and Xia Yu's filial piety was shattered to pieces.
Just now, just pretend he didn't say anything.
After lunch, Elena continued her teaching on the ground, while Ms. Lin and the Invincible Class returned to the port in the afternoon.
Xia Yu immediately reported the matter, and facts have proved that the relationship between mother and son is far more solid than that between father and son.
