Chapter 221 Silver Mine
After saying this, Lin Yan focused on the copper mine and took out the various copper utensils he brought back.
The dazzling bronzeware attracts everyone.
Different from the thickness of ironware, bronzeware itself is golden and has won everyone's love.
After looking around with satisfaction, Lin Yan said: "There is a copper mine in Mingwan Village. This is the copperware they smelted. It looks very nice."
Everyone nodded unanimously, no one disliked the dazzling golden light.
"This is copper ore, green and blue. It is very beautiful and has many uses. It contains a variety of metal elements. As long as it is transported back, we can extract a variety of metals. Therefore, open the road to Mingwan Village
It’s imperative.”
Mrs. Shui was the first to say: "You walked for eight months to get to Mingwan Village. It's so far away and it's impossible for us to build the road."
Leng Fang: "Yes, it's too far. It's difficult to build such a road. You have to climb countless mountains and cross rivers, which is impossible. This is not going to the mines. It's only more than three hundred miles."
Before anyone else could speak, Lin Yan hurriedly said: "What are you thinking? It's really impossible to build a road from the ground. I'm talking about walking by water."
The person who wanted to speak shut his mouth and waited for Lin Yan to continue.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw no one, so Lin Yan went to look for Ye Cong.
"You didn't know I was back until now, did you?"
Alan: "That's feasible. It's just that there won't be enough boats. We need boats to go to Wilderness City, Qingyan City, and Gray Mountain. We made another boat this year, so I'm still a little nervous."
Seeing everyone's silence, Lin Yan kept up his efforts: "Ape Da and Yue Er are really not something that one or two families can afford to raise. In addition to being edible, they are also very capable of hunting. Most of the ferocious beasts outside are afraid of them. I can take them hunting,
Try to make Yuan Da and Yuan Er self-sufficient."
Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Leng Fang said: "The population of Mingwan Village is several times that of ours. There is strength in numbers. Are they willing to sell the ore to us and live in peace with us?"
Alan looked around and asked, "What do you all think? We want to use Sun City's tax revenue to raise Ape Da and Ape Er. Everyone will take a stand?"
"It's good. Each city has its own army so that it can protect its people."
"What is it that makes you so addicted?"
"If I hadn't seen you in person, I wouldn't have known you were back. You've been busy in the laboratory recently and haven't gone home. Lin Yan, you must not have imagined what we found."
Their tall, mighty and fierce appearance attracted everyone's attention along the way.
In the rush, he looked up and saw that it was Lin Yan. Ye Cong put down the things in his hands and said with a smile: "Lin Yan, you are finally back. Did you have a smooth journey?"
Although Sun City now belongs to the alliance and is not fighting alone, Yuanye City and Qingyan City are far away and are not on the right track yet. If Mingwan Village bullies others and covets Sun City, they will not be able to help.
.
Lin Yan was relieved when he arrived at the arbitration tribunal. It was not easy. They came back late yesterday and Yuan Da and Yuan Er didn't cause a sensation. They still couldn't escape today.
Alan said: "The military headquarters recruited five hundred people this year, and sent fifty people each to Yuanye City and Qingyan City to form new teams for training in the two cities. They can also be regarded as detachments of the military headquarters."
Lin Yan shook his head and said, "Don't worry too much about this. There are no boats in Mingwan Village, so if you want to come and attack us, you can't. They live in poverty, which is exactly when they need us."
"We don't understand the situation yet. We'll make a decision after seeing Yuan Da and Yuan Er. Lin Yan, please bring them."
"We walked all the way, memorizing the approximate directions and making notes. We speculated that the Minghe River in Mingwan Village is likely to be connected to the Yanghe River. Therefore, we are planning to explore by water next year. If the speculation is correct, from
The time from Sun City to Mingwan Village will be greatly shortened, and it will not be difficult to transport copper ore back."
Alan said curiously: "We haven't seen Yuan Da and Yuan Er yet, do they really understand human nature?"
"They are so smart. They have learned simple words along the way with us, and there is no big problem in communication. Alan, they don't want to leave, and no one can do anything about it. They have to rely on everyone to raise them together."
After finally finishing the food supply for Yuan Da and Yuan Er, Lin Yan came to the laboratory.
"They are still worried about food. We can exchange the food for copper mines. Although there are many people in Mingwan Village, there is still a gap in strength compared to us. I heard that the military has expanded its recruitment. How many people are there now?
people?"
After learning about some of the changes this year at the arbitration tribunal, Lin Yan reported in detail the situation of going out, focusing on Yuan Da and Yuan Er.
"What are you busy with? I didn't see you when I came back?"
"Haha, there is a new discovery over there at Huishan. Not long after you left, Huishan sent some silver-white stones. The first thing we thought of was a silver mine. After testing, it was indeed confirmed that it was a silver mine.
Silver mine. We went to Gray Mountain to see it. It is indeed a silver mine, and the reserves cannot be ascertained. There is natural silver, as well as silver-gold mines and other silver compounds. Since the discovery of the silver mine, we have been busy separating and purifying it.
I want more material things.”
"If we don't have enough boats, we'll just build them and we won't set off until next year. From now on, let the carpentry factory work overtime, and it should be no problem to build another boat."
The first reaction of many people when they saw it was that when ferocious beasts entered the city, they would kill them. Lin Yan was busy smiling and explaining.
Lin Yan was really shocked, feeling like he was hearing hallucinations, "Are you telling the truth?"
Lin Yan spent a lot of words to dispel their fears, and asked Lan Xing to be found to talk about Yuan Da and Yuan Er's performance on the road.
They are indeed very edible, and Hua Hong is right to worry. If they were raised at home, they would be eaten to pieces in less than half a month.
When Alan and others saw Yuan Da and Yuan Er for the first time, their fear and defensiveness were very obvious.
In order to provide food for Yuan Da and Yuan Er, Lin Yan had to go home, and somehow managed to get Yuan Da and Yuan Er, who were basking in the sun, to the arbitration court.
There is indeed no problem with building the ship, everyone agrees.
Ye Cong nodded affirmatively, "It's all true. How dare I lie to you about such a big thing. Come and see, these are all rough stones brought back from the silver mine."
Lin Yan was really curious. He hadn't seen anyone in the laboratory since he came back.
Seeing a lot of ores of various colors, Lin Yan finally had a real feeling, "That's not right. I was just in the arbitration court about such a big matter, why didn't anyone mention it?"
"Not many people know about it, so Alan told us to keep it a secret and let us study it first, and then decide how to mine the silver mine after you come back."
He carefully touched all the ores and saw the results given by the Science and Technology Museum. Lin Yan became increasingly uneasy. This silver mine is really a treasure. It contains not only natural silver, but also several silver compounds.
An important raw material for refining silver.
Among them, the silver-gold ore can not only produce silver, but also gold, which is so rare. There is also silver sulfide ore, with which many chemical experiments can be performed.
