Chapter 160

The valley where liucuishan iron mine is located is full of hard and solid land, and even weeds are difficult to grow.

Not far after entering, there are several rows of wooden buildings. There are no fences around.

Most of the prisoners here are ancient prisoners. They will be released early after mining here for a few years. Usually, no one escapes and their care is not strict.

Ren 8000 has been here for two days. Every day, he uses a piece of cloth as a mask to surround his face and walk around.

The dust in the valley is too big. It is all floating from the mine. When you sleep, you will find that there is ash around.

This iron ore is of average quality, but it is easy to mine. It is the highest output iron ore in Dayao at present. Although it is not much compared with the earth's iron ore.

Ren 8000 has been thinking about how to make it easier for transportation in and out these two days.

As long as materials and outward transportation of ore keep up, the output of this iron ore can increase several times or even more.

On three sides of the valley are cliffs, and on one side is the narrow path from which ore is transported out or materials are sent in.

On the other side is a deep mountain stream. There is a stream below, but it will flow into the ground some distance further.

As for the other two sides, they all lead to 60000 mountains, and it is not easy to get in and out of the road. It is not realistic to open a way from this side.

Ren 801 began to consider lifting by cable, but if Dayao had steel for cable, he would have invested in building weapons.

Moreover, the materials needed for the cable can only be produced in a few years. And the support required by the cable is also difficult for the world to build.

As for the rope, you don't have to think about it. It wears out too fast. It's unrealistic to lift the ore.

In addition, Ren 8000 also considers overheating balloons. However, considering the difficulty of manufacturing hot-air balloons and the fuel required, I'm afraid three or two hot-air balloons will not be much faster than the current method of carrying people.

Not to mention the air flow in the valley, hot-air balloons are not used as a means of transportation.

In fact, I'm afraid it's only more likely to open a tunnel.

"Have you ever thought of opening a hole in this mountain directly to the opposite side?" Ren 8000 asked Tao Jiyuan, pointing to the mountain ahead.

"Shh, Lord Ren, just think about it. Don't say it outside." Tao Jiyuan is a little nervous.

"What?" Ren 8000 was surprised.

"It is said that there is an unknown existence in the mountainside. In the past, the state of Hao also wanted to dig through the mountain, but it would collapse only a few tens of feet each time. It dug three times. The third time angered the existence in the mountainside. Not only the miners died, but also the two thousand troops outside died, and no one survived. Since then, the state of Hao has never lived again I never thought about digging up the mountain. "

Ren Bayi looked at Tao Jiyuan suspiciously. Is it so terrible?

"How many years has it been? True or false" Ren 8000 is a little incredible.

"A hundred years, but no one dares to move the mountain." Tao Jiyuan smiled bitterly.

Ren 8000 thought about the unicorn he had seen. The world is too different from the earth and there are too many unknowns. Tao Jiyuan's words are not true.

"Can the mountain road be widened?" Let go of the question just now, and Ren 8000 asked again. Since we can't dig a tunnel, even if we expand the mountain road to three meters, we can pass through horned cattle and so on.

Although this is also a huge project, iron ore is the foundation of a country's construction. Even if it costs more, it is not unacceptable.

What's more, I can get explosives and so on to directly blow up the rocks on the mountain wall.

Tao Jiyuan looked a little strange: "the mountain road can only be so wide. How much you dig in the mountain, the mountain road will collapse. It has always been so wide."

Ren 8000 looked up at the mountain in front of him. In this way, he had no choice.

You can't touch it. Are you touching porcelain here?

What is there in this mountain?

If you have a chance, you really want to dig it up.

But the idea is just a thought. Ren 8000 is not a risk taker.

"In that case, we are useless here. Let's leave tomorrow." Any 8000 sighs.

"I'm just accompanying Ren to have a look this time." Tao Jiyuan laughed. If Ren 8000 hadn't come to see it, he wouldn't have come here.

"It's okay to mine here?" Ren 8000 asked again.

"I don't care what's inside when I'm mining here." Tao Jiyuan said directly. "But I still don't like it here."

Ren 8000 nodded. He was very angry at what he said.

Anyway, there has been a plan for Damo mountain, where the transportation is convenient in all aspects. As long as the iron mountain can be melted with a solar furnace, I must be able to obtain enough iron ore in a short time. My goal this time is to achieve.

The six emerald mountains should be explored again in the future.

They stood there and looked for a while. Ren 8000 planned to go back and start after a night's rest.

On the way back, I saw that the garrison here pulled two quniu to the direction of 60000 mountain and walked all the way up the mountain.

In the past two days, Ren 8000 saw them kill cattle several times. None of them was taken so far away, so he was surprised: "what is this to do?"

Tao Jiyuan thought for a moment, then called a guard to ask.

"The wings are going down the mountain. This is for it. After eating these two cows, they won't come down to eat anything else." The guard said to them.

"What are the wings?" Ren 8000 asked curiously. In his impression, the ancient people always swing a knife and cut everything they see. When did they pay tribute.

Tao Jiyuan showed a sudden look: "it's a pair of wings“

Then he turned to Ren 8000 and said, "a fierce beast in the 60000 mountains, looks like a mountain mouse, has wings, can run and fly. And the speed is as fast as lightning. Even experienced old hunters in the mountains can hardly kill it. On the contrary, they will find a chance to sneak attack. "

"Your Excellency is right. Pipi will go down the mountain twice every spring and autumn. If he can't find food, he will attack other cattle here and bite all the cattle to death. If he beats him, he will find a chance to revenge. Therefore, he will put two cattle directly on the mountain every time, and he won't come down after eating." Said the guard.

Ren Bayi thought it was a bat at first, but he didn't find it until he heard it. It seems to be a unique creature in the world.

This vengeful character is a bit like a weasel.

"Find a place to hide. Can you see it?" Ren 8000 is curious. He is still interested in this strange animal in the world.

"It's better not to see adults. It's said that people who see wings will encounter disasters. It's extremely effective."

"Forget it." Ren 8000 immediately followed suit.
