Chapter 124 - 39: The Start of the Firm’s Industry
Lin Miao planned to first try investing in a few small projects; there were some submissions from players that seemed quite reliable.
Semtine C4, according to Jianxue Wuming’s synthesis formula: 40.9% PETN, 41.2% RDX, with the remainder being adhesives, plasticizers, antioxidants, and dyes.
As for making detonators with mercury fulminate, that’s even simpler. Put silver into nitric acid at about 68%, and after the reaction is complete, add ethanol not less than 92%, pouring it steadily, handle with care, wait for the crystals to emerge, wash them carefully, dry them, and that’s it. (Shh—kids, do not play with dangerous items...)
Find someone to order a batch of chemical instruments, and you can import raw materials in small quantities batch by batch. Synthesizing these items isn’t really difficult, as long as you have high school chemistry knowledge. The problem is you’ll get a visit from Uncle Hatters while sourcing materials.
Never underestimate the ears and eyes of the Uncles. Often, they’re not unaware; they just find the XP system of the Q group members quite strange.
Moreover, Night City lacks everything except the black market. Not to mention buying raw materials, it’s not impossible to get finished products either. It’s said that Dogtown even sells missiles; as long as you have the money, they have whatever you need.
As for the local Uncle Hatters, the efficiency of the NCPD here can only be described as pathetic, and they don’t manage outside the city.
MT-1 Exoskeleton
Ordered 100 prosthetic motors from Gloria, prioritizing the main motors in the industrial prosthetic arms and thighs. Industrial prosthetics generally have higher output than residential ones. Get some hydraulic oil, pistons, and hydraulic hoses from Adcardo. The main skeleton is stainless steel; they have small machine tools there, so making this isn’t a big problem. Stainless steel tubes I’ll handle myself.
The basic prosthetic power comes from electricity, converting chemical energy of body fluids into electricity through some kind of biological solution. Only a very few high-end prosthetics, like gorilla arms, use small hydraulic drives, with separate battery packs. Hydraulic drives are too bulky to be suitable for prosthetics, but they’re fine for exoskeletons. If they’re big, they’re big. Make it and see.
