Chapter 64 Gold Mining
"What method?" Gongliang asked, raising his eyebrows.
"You'll know tomorrow morning." The big man was mysterious, said nothing, and went to make noodles.
"Hey, this gold." Gongliang shouted while holding the gold in his hand.
"Give it to you." The big man waved his hand, not minding this bit of gold at all. Maybe it was just as he said, this thing is not as useful as a few kilograms of animal meat.
Gong Liang looked at the gold as thick as his thumb, squeezed it, and immediately made several fingerprints on it. He put it in the palm of his hand and kneaded it vigorously like kneading glutinous rice balls. After a while, a piece of gold with sharp edges was kneaded by him.
Into a ball of little golden balls.
He was of no use, so he left it to Mi Gu to play with.
Holding Mi Gu in his hand, he stared at it curiously and looked at it carefully. He felt that it was not interesting, so he put it away.
Regardless of whether it's useful or not, what Dad gives is good stuff.
The chairs in the inn were long benches. Migu was too small to reach the table, so Gongliang took out the children's chair, while Yuan Gungun sat on the stool. Now that the chicken had grown up, he could just reach the table when standing on the chair.
As for the two-headed bird, no one seems to care about it.
After a while, the noodles came.
When he saw the noodles, Gongliang felt disgusted without eating them.
Other people's noodles are thin, but the ghost noodles here are thicker than your index finger. Can they still be called noodles? Let's just call them noodle sticks.
The big man came up to the table and saw Yuan Guanguan sitting on the chair. He couldn't help but said to Gong Liang: "It's strange that you are a little beast. You can actually sit on your own. But these noodles need to be picked with the chopsticks of the Eastern people. Can it be done?"
Yuan Gunwan didn't bother with that, he just held the bowl and poured the noodles into his mouth.
The big man pretended that he didn't say anything and turned to look at Mi Gu. Mi Gu had already used chopsticks, but the noodles were a bit thick, but she still picked up the noodles with her chopsticks and started eating. Gong Liang didn't even have to say anything, while the chick next to her buried her head.
In the bowl, I bit into the noodles and sucked them up without eating them at all.
The big man felt that all his words had been wasted, so he turned and left.
Gong Liang tasted the noodles and found that they didn't taste very good, so they just ate them as a novelty and had no nutrition at all.
Unlike three-color rice, eating it can grow muscles and bones and strengthen the body; unlike animal meat, eating it can also replenish the essence of qi and blood.
Even so, Gongliang still thought about buying some flour and wheat seeds from the big man, and then planting them in the fruit space. It was not about whether these things had any nutrition, but mainly to change his appetite. Eat animal meat every day, and rice would.
Sometimes you get tired of eating too.
After eating, the big man took Gongliang to rest.
There was a quiet courtyard behind the inn. The big man took them to a room, turned around and left without caring about anything. When he left, he did not forget to tell Gong Liang: "Remember to get up early tomorrow, I will take you to dig for gold."
"Thank you."
Gongliang also didn't know why this big man would take him to dig for gold if he had never met him before. Even if the people of the wilderness were simple, they couldn't be so simple.
But no matter what, he still wanted to thank him for his hospitality.
Perhaps, all this is for the sake of old man Huai Ren; perhaps, all these questions will be answered tomorrow.
The next day, when it was still early, the big man knocked on Gong Liang's door.
Gongliang had no choice but to get up and clean up. He took Mi Gu, Yuan Guan Guan, and the chicken and walked with the big man. When he came outside the inn, he saw a huge wild beast standing in the open space in front of the door, carrying several baskets and two mining tools.
Long pickaxe.
The big man didn't say anything, he just led Gongliang and the others outside the city, and the wild beast automatically followed them.
This made Mi Gu very curious, and he kept looking back.
The Jinshan Mountain in Dahan's mouth is really very close to Guifang Kingdom. After leaving the city gate, we climbed over two mountains and there was flat ground all the way.
Jinshan is really Jinshan. The entire mountain is an open-pit gold mine. The vegetation and soil on the mountain have long been removed, leaving only a bare mine. Now the sun rises and shines on it, emitting countless golden lights.
At this time, there was no one mining on the mountain, but there was a wooden house randomly built beside the mine. Two Guifang people were sitting in front of the wooden house, guarding the mine.
When a Guifang man saw the big man coming, he asked, "Huaiyi, if you don't open a good shop at home, why are you here?"
Huaiyi replied: "My father wants some ore to refine gold, so I will bring some people over to help dig some back."
"Then go quickly. It's better for you to stay at the inn. You don't have to stay here every day like us and not see anyone for several days. People in our tribe don't like to use gold anymore."
"Who likes to use gold? Not to mention the burden, and the people in other tribes don't want it. In the end, it can only be used in our tribe, and sometimes people don't accept it. Who is willing to come to mine and refine gold? If you have the time, you can
It's better to kill a wild beast and come back to eat it." Another Guifang countryman said.
"You can't say that. At least the people in the East like to use gold. If you can bring gold to the East, you can buy a lot of things."
"That's Dongtu, and we are in the wilderness. If you have the time to bring gold, you might as well bring some things from our tribe in the wilderness. I heard that the people in Dongtu are very stupid. A piece of grass can be sold for a lot of spiritual stones, which can be exchanged for many things.
I don’t know if it’s true.”
"I've heard about this too, and it's said to be true."
Huaiyi ignored them and took Gongliang to the mine.
Gong Liang looked around as he walked and found that the purity of the ore in this Jinshan Mountain was very high, and natural gold could be seen on the ore from time to time.
When they reached the top, Huaiyi pointed around and said, "Look, not only is there gold under our feet, but also the mountains next to us. You can dig as much as you want, no one will care about you."
Huaiyi gave Gongliang a long pickaxe and a big basket and asked him to dig as he pleased. He also took a long pickaxe and dug aside.
Since he could dig as he pleased, Gongliang was naturally not polite. He let Mi Gu, Yuan Gun Gun and the chicken roam freely nearby while he dug with a long pick. He was very strong and quickly dug a basket and poured it directly into
Inside the treasure bag. This is the treasure bag given by Ling Rui from Cao Snake Department. It has a large space inside. He packed it out specially yesterday to prepare gold mines.
When Huaiyi saw the treasure bag, he immediately put down his mining pickaxe and ran over.
"Treasure bag for holding things!"
"Have you seen it?" Gongliang glanced at him and continued to pour over the gold mine.
"Of course I have seen it." He runs an inn in the city, and people often come to stay there. If he has never seen this before, he would be very ignorant.
When Gongliang dumped the gold mine, Huaiyi suddenly asked: "What are you going to do with these gold mines?"
"What should I do?" Gong Liang asked curiously.
"To turn this gold mine into gold, it needs to be refined and refined. You don't think you can use it directly, do you?"
Gongliang patted his head and forgot about it when he was happy, and asked quickly: "What should we do?"
Huaiyi chuckled and said, "My father specializes in refining gold for people. You can ask him to refining it for you, but you have to collect something."
"Isn't your father the same Huairen I was at the gate of the city yesterday?"
"If he wasn't my father, how could I let you eat and sleep in the store for nothing? I'm not a fool."
He entertained Gongliang yesterday mainly because of his father. As for mining, it was because his father wanted ore to refine gold. Seeing that he wanted to mine, he pulled him over to help him dig. Then he saw Gongliang had something in his hand.
After holding the treasure bag, I suddenly changed my mind and planned to exchange something with him.
"I heard from my father that you have Tianxiang fruit, but only girls like to eat Tianxiang fruit. I don't want it. But you can hunt some wild cows to exchange for it. A bag of gold ore can be smelted into gold and exchanged for a big wild cow.
,How about it?"
There are many wild cows in the jungle of the wilderness. They are very popular in the wilderness because of their good taste. However, wild cows are strong and live in groups, so they are generally difficult to kill.
If a Dahuang cow is exchanged for a bag of gold, according to Dongtu's calculation, Gongliang will definitely make money, but it's hard to say in Dahuang.
But as far as Huaiyi is concerned, he is definitely making a lot of money.
Because this gold is of no use to them at all, and now it has reached the point where everyone despises it. However, refining gold only takes a little time and firewood, and it can be exchanged for a big wild cow, which is very cost-effective.
Gongliang thought for a while and agreed to Huaiyi's exchange.
When Huaiyi heard this, he was so happy that he stopped digging himself and instead came over to help Gongliang dig.
