At this time, there were more and more people around the hut, and Granny Yiori and Iron Hoof all arrived. Michael hid behind a trick fairy, and the red three teeth looked at the gold-eating ants and grinned. The corners of Bai Yue's mouth rose slightly, revealing sharp teeth, and his hands pressed on the handle of the scimitar.

Everyone was on the lookout, because no one had ever seen such a scene.

"Fierce dog, go get some silver. Gao Li said to Yaya on the side, and Yaya disappeared with a 'Wang' sound. Then he quickly came out and handed Gao Li a silver ingot.

"Is this enough?" Gao Li asked, holding up the silver ingot.

She said, "That's enough, just throw the money to the worker ants." Xiu'er said.

Gao Li threw it out, and the heavy silver ingot smashed a piece of worker ants into the ground, only to have the worker ants struggle to crawl out again.

So sturdy!

A swarm of worker ants quickly split the silver ingots into small particles and then took them away, and the colony quickly faded, leaving a piece behind. Afterwards, Xiu'er said: "The queen ant said that all the dead worker ants have become food for their companions. She doesn't have dead worker ants, so she trades a portion of the worker ants for your silver ingots. ”

After speaking, the gold-eating ants around Xiu'er and Chu Miaoyi's necks also faded, and in the blink of an eye, the entire courtyard fell silent.

Gao Li looked at the two girls who seemed to be frightened, walked up quickly, and was about to say something to comfort, but he saw the two girls holding their hands in twos and twos, and shouted excitedly: "Make a lot of money!"

There are more than 300 worker ants left here, and the queen ant has severed contact with them, and these gold-eating ants are completely obedient to the orders of Xiu'er or Chu Miaoyi!

It seems that there should be no need to worry about their mood.

The crowd that had just gathered dispersed with laughter, and the PAW team leaned over, and then quickly joined in the extracurricular activities of playing with ants.

Now that you have a group of living people, there are more ways to play.

First of all, he had to verify whether the teeth of these gold-eating ants in front of him were alloys.

Without a microscope, there was no special means, and Gao Li could only be determined by letting gold-eating ants bite. The marking of the steel sheet was raised all the way to the hard white iron, and although these gold-eating ants could no longer bite, their teeth were not damaged in any way! With Xiu'er's assistance, Gao Li was able to observe these gold-eating ants from a very close distance. He found that although the teeth and bodies of these gold-eating ants were silver, the silver of the teeth seemed to be slightly different.

Gao Li thought of something almost immediately.

Wolfram.

This is a metal that is very widely distributed in rocks, but in very low quantities.

Could it be that there is a layer of tungsten or even tungsten steel plating on the inside of the teeth of gold-eating ants?

It can't be so scary, right?

To test his guess, Gao Li decided to sacrifice a group of gold-eating ants and send them into miniature cauldrons and into the furnace. If memory serves, the melting point of both tungsten and tungsten steel is around 3,000 degrees, which is far more than the temperature that charcoal and coke can reach. After smelting, the gold-eating ants were missing from the tiny crucibles, and the body parts had melted. And that pair of teeth, there is a thin shell left.

A shell that has become jet-black due to oxidation.

Sure enough, tungsten, a metal that should have been silver, would only oxidize at a temperature of 1,000 degrees!

Whether it's tungsten or tungsten steel, this thing is top-notch!

But where did these gold-eating ants get tungsten? The content of this thing in nature is so low that it is impossible to accumulate so much tungsten with the amount of gold-eating ants! Could it be that they have found a tungsten ore? Wait, tungsten ore seems to be an associated mine, what kind of mineral is it associated with?

Gao Li held back, racked his brains, memorized the periodic table, and finally thought, quartz mine! This thing is an associated mine of quartz! There is a quartz mine in Fanxian County, three hundred miles away!

Well, it's been a circle, so it's here!

In general, quartz ore is mainly used to make enamel for porcelain, while quartz ore is often associated with tin and tungsten ore. The history of tin is almost similar to that of copper, and it is very long, but for tungsten ore ...... Gao Li was not impressed.

Gao Li suddenly became excited, wolframite is probably not used, right? The technology of extracting metal tungsten from wolframite is even more unknown. The next stage in technical metalworking begins!

Alloy!

No kind of carbon steel, even if played to the extreme, can not be better than alloy. This is the conclusion of the modern metallurgical industry, and the key is how to combine the alloy.

If you can grasp the use of tungsten in advance......

Gao Li felt like he was already smiling from ear to ear

Alloy, this thing is a top priority. Gao Li originally planned to slowly promote the metalworking process, but now the emergence of gold-eating ants has allowed Gao Li to achieve leapfrog development, why not?

Gao Li decided to go to Fan County in person.

But now that Ling Long is not at home, Gao Li himself doesn't dare to run around casually.

Coincidentally, at this time, Zhao Xiaoliu came.

Since they started doing business, Dong Mingcheng and Zhao Xiaoliu have come to Lizhuang less and less. Because business is getting busier and busier, the two brothers don't even have time to go to their favorite Qinlou Chu Pavilion.

After all, compared to physical pleasure, silver is more exciting.

This time, it was rare for Zhao Xiaoliu to take time to catch up with Gao Li. A few plates of wine and food, a few jars of wine. Looking back on the past, remembering the ridiculous things back then, I also blushed a little.

"Brother Li, Dong Mingcheng and I have returned all the female slaves in our family to freedom, and now we are focused on making money. Back then, when we brothers played together, no one looked down on us, but now, everyone has to say that we are good brothers! It's all thanks to you, Brother Li!"

Zhao Xiaoliu was also quite emotional.

"Brother, where are you talking? I did so many ridiculous things back then, and you brothers didn't treat me as an outsider, if it weren't for your brothers who often helped me, I might not have been where I am today. Gao Li recalled the past Gao Li's hope, and he also felt a lot of emotion.

"Don't say anything, it's all in the wine!"

"!"

"!"

Tons and tons of ......

"By the way, Brother Li, I plan to go to Fan County in two days to have a look, it is close to my hometown, if our branch can be opened, I can also take care of it, you see, can I ......"

Gao Li smiled and said, "Brother, as long as you feel that you can be busy, just let it go." ”

"Brother Li!"

"Brother!"

"Brother!"

"Brother!"

Tons and tons of ......

"Wait, brother, are you going to Fan County?" Gao Li asked, pulling his mouth out of the jar.

"yes. ”

"Aha! That's a coincidence, let's go together!"

Hearing that Gao Li was going to Fan County, Nonoka firmly disagreed.

"Owner, don't you know what you have cultivated yourself? Do you know that there are many people who are beating your mind now? people who covet your skills, Ye Jiazhong, Shuntian Sectists, and even Prince Yannan's lackeys...... How dangerous. Nonoka immediately disagreed, "If I had time, I could have gone with you, but now there are so many things in Lizhuang, I can't leave at all, can you leave again after a while?" Nonoka said, pushing his glasses frame.

To tell the truth, Gao Li is a hands-off shopkeeper, Li Zhuang usually has a lot of dangers, but he almost doesn't know, listening to Nonoka say this, he also feels a little inappropriate.

"I'll go with him. An unexpected person walked out, and it turned out to be Chu Miaoyin!

"You're back?" Gao Li was a little surprised.

"I didn't leave. Chu Miaoyin said.

"What?" Gao Li was stunned.

Gao Sen said

I'm finally back in this chapter!
