Alex spent his days mining and collecting all the resources he could take with him. Even he was surprised by how large a space he had for all the resources.
Only after harvesting more than enough to fund an entire system for years did he come to a halt; even then, there were still many more to be harvested.
He managed to collect some of the minerals that are only found in certain regions, such as the tundra and volcanic areas.
He also collected a few rare ones from the oceans after putting kraken-level threats in their place. He was more powerful than any creature on the planet.

Alex felt his breath hitch from the shocking amount. "That's a lot of money."
