Chapter 263: Ore Veins
Thor left from Ujung Pandang, and the soldiers at the city gate naturally did not dare to stop him, and watched His Majesty the King with a large group of people go out of the city in a mighty way, and he did not know what to do. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Brunhill soon led Thor to an iron ore mine a few hundred meters away from Ujung Pandan, which had been leased by the Cerveros to merchants from Worms.
After the occupation of Ujung Pandang, Thor temporarily put in charge of all the resources lent out by the Servero, and negotiated with the Conrad family to reclaim the rights to these veins.
He didn't care about this resource, but simply didn't want to have other people's troops stationed on his own territory, and these Worms merchants more or less had the shadow of platinum and amber behind them.
Susie and Leonie both desperately need Thor's power to help them, so this little thing is naturally agreed.
In fact, after many years of mining, both the iron ore here and a gold mine not far away are almost exhausted, and the remaining value is long gone.
After Thor took care of the mine, the owner of the iron mine mesa packed up his bags and took his men back to the Wotan continent, knowing that everything that happened next had nothing to do with him, it was the business of Thor and the Conrad family.
On the basis of Eddie's successful negotiations, Thor simply took over these ore veins, although there are no formal procedures, but in fact, these mine resources that originally belonged to the Cerverus people have now been taken back by Thor into the pockets of the Thors.
Although it seems that it is not very cost-effective to recover the few veins that have been ranned out, things have changed since Brunhill discovered the energy crystal.
If he really said that there was an energy crystal mine under the lighted iron ore, Thor would have made a lot of money at once, and one energy crystal mine would be enough to top all the common metal veins on this island.
As Thor pondered his own gains, Brunhill slid silently down the edge of the open-pit mine mixed with black ore and dirt, heading down to the deep pit.
It had not been a work for a long time, and before Thor conquered the Cerverlos, the iron ore had been largely exhausted, and it was not known that the birds or the sea breeze had sent the seeds of the plants, and the dark soil had grown tender green seedlings.
But Brunhill had no intention of seeing the vibrancy at the moment, and he slid down the pit to the deepest part, followed by Thor and the rest of the scientists, some of whom were botanists or biologists with more agility, slid down behind them.
Others, who are either old or not good at sports, are cautiously crouching on the ground, using their hands and feet together a little bit, slowly crawling to the bottom of the iron pit.
As if caught in his own preoccupation mode, Brunhill went to the bottom of the pit, grabbed the soil from the ground and looked at it as if he could distinguish flowers from it, and occasionally put the dirt to his nose and sniffed it.
Occasionally, he used the energy crystal in his hand to cling to the ground, as if he was using it to perform some kind of induction, the same as Franklin's previous mind-driven experiments in the Truth Society's laboratory.
I don't know if it was a psychologist who inspired him, or if that's how he found this energy spar in the first place.
Thor was not in a hurry, he didn't urge Brunhill, he just waited quietly on the sidelines, and the rest of the scholars didn't say anything, looking at Brunhill who was engrossed in looking around for observations, everyone understood that now was not a good time to disturb him.
Like stray dogs looking for dinner with their sense of smell, a group of men followed Brunhill to the bottom of the pit, climbed up with great difficulty, and then slid to another pit, and so on shuttled back and forth between the pits of the open-pit iron mine.
Thor was thinking that it was good that this was an open-pit vein, and if it was in the mine, they would have to work hundreds of times more.
"Your Majesty—" Finally, after going back and forth in a large pit dozens of times, Brunhill seemed to finally determine the difference between this place and the rest, and he straightened up, almost eye level with Thor.
His palms, limbs, chest, back, cheeks, and even his hair were stained with gray-black dirt, powder, and crumbs, and he looked firmly into Thor's eyes, and for the first time since he had been here, he spoke:
"Your Majesty, I think the Energy Crystal Mine should be down here-"
So he naturally knew that Brunhill was not lying, this was already the limit of what he could do, but it was not difficult to see from his expression how much information he had in his final judgment.
Saul's hunch was less than thirty percent, and the geologist was obviously giving himself confidence, otherwise he would have been in a panic.
"Is this here?" Thor pointed to his feet, making sure again.
Brunhill didn't think about it, and replied without giving himself a chance to think at all: "Yes, Your Majesty - I'm sure it's here." ”
Although he said it with great certainty, it always sounded like he was about to die, and he was generous and righteous.
"Good. Saul didn't say much, no matter how sure Brunhill was, he was going to believe him, because in Saul's opinion, in the face of such a big benefit, there was every reason to try, and always get nothing in the end, and how much could he lose.
Now that he is the king of Soth, he is no longer a small tribe to be feared by the wind and rain, this is a country with a population of more than 100,000 people, and he can fully afford the failure of mining a mineral vein.
"Gliston—" Thor beckoned to the two guards who had followed him, and then called to Gliston, a young and strong chemist, and said to him:
"Now go back to Ujung Pandang, and go to the Director of the Public Works Bureau, Mr. Paladin—you know?"
So far, the Truth Society has not cooperated too often with various other institutions within the Sothianism, and Thor fears that they will not be familiar with each other.
"Of course, Mr. Paladin, of course I know. "Fortunately, Paladin is also famous as one of the cores of Saul's men, and Gliston still knows him.
"Well, then you go and tell him about the situation here, and let him bring people and tools, and I will mine here on the spot, and start immediately, without a minute's delay. ”
Seeing that Add and Isgerin are about to come to the Wasteland, it means that the Sothians will go on an expedition to Wotan, and the manpower and material resources of the whole country will inevitably be focused on war, and Thor still wants to deal with the matter of the energy crystal mine as soon as possible.
For this reason, he was not willing to delay for a second, even if he started mining overnight now, as long as he could find a crystal ore, maybe there was only one, but it was worth mining for Thor to mine.
"Yes—" Gliston saluted, he understood how anxious His Majesty was, and of course stopped talking nonsense, and turned and ran with two warriors.
But he was evidently still a little small, and Thor saw from a distance that the two warriors carried him up without hesitation, so that he could run much faster.
"Let's not be idle, just look around here and see if we can find any other energy crystals. Thor searched around and commanded the crowd, and everyone began to search for the energy hedron again.
