Chapter 0206 Discovering the Gold Mine (Thanks to the book friend Xingzhining's reward, plus more)

Lao Zhao, what excites you like this? ”

"I'm really hungry for the treasure." Zhao Gang propped up the table with both hands, and said with a very excited and excited expression: "Lao Li, we are really going to become the rich man of Shanxi, why did we find a gold mine not far from Jiangcheng!" ”

Gold mine?

When Li Yunlong heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he got up from his position with a loud sound, and looked at Zhao Gang very excitedly: "Old Zhao, is what you said true?" ”

"Yes! Just discovered! Zhao Gang was also very happy and said: "This gold mine has just been discovered!" ”

"Great, really great!" Li Yunlong, don't mention that excitement. "Gold mine, my good man, Lao Tzu is really going to be the rich man of Shanxi, hahaha!"

The most expensive thing in war is money, and no matter what equipment is purchased or manufactured in the future, it requires a huge amount of military expenditure and money.

Money can make ghosts grind, this is a very real thing, and it is also a long-standing phenomenon.

At that time, because of the war, the entire 643 countries were flooded with many kinds of currencies. U.S. dollars, border tickets, Yuan Datou (ocean), silver, etc.

The border area ticket can generally only be used in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei border area, the Japanese currency is in the Japanese occupation area, the legal currency, the US dollar can be exchanged for the Japanese currency according to the proportion at that time, and the Manchukuo yuan was also used at that time, but it was not used in the national control area, and the common currency of the national control area at that time was also legal tender.

At that time, the money was completely worthless, because of the economic collapse, it was frantically printing fiat currency, the same 100 yuan could buy a cow in 1937, but then 100 yuan could not even buy a box of matches.

Fiat currency was initially pegged to the British pound, and 1 fiat currency could be exchanged for 1.25 shillings (at that time, 1 pound = 20 shillings, and 1 shilling was equal to 12 pence). Fiat currency can be exchanged for sterling notes at the bank without restrictions. Afterward. The fiat currency was changed to the US dollar, and a fixed exchange rate of 100 yuan of fiat currency was exchanged for 30 US dollars.

"We really sent it this time!" Li Yunlong said: "If we have gold, then we are not afraid that we will have no money to spend, and we are not afraid of the depreciation of paper money." ”

It is undeniable that gold has always been very precious, and it has been hard currency in all periods.

During the Sino-Japanese War, the official price of an ounce of gold was $35! One ton of gold is equal to 35,273 ounces, which is about 1 ton of gold is equal to $1,234,500.

If it is converted to the current currency, a gold bar, the so-called big yellow croaker, is worth 71,053.1 yuan, and a "small yellow croaker" is worth 7,105.3 yuan.

It can be said that with the treasury, the independent regiment will no longer be short of money to spend, and it will become the most tyrant unit of the Eighth Route Army.

"Let's go, let's see!"

Immediately afterwards, Li Yunlong hurriedly walked with Zhao Gang to the location of the gold mine!

This gold mine is about two kilometers away from the urban area of Jiangcheng, the distance is not far, and it still belongs to the defense area of the independent regiment, if Li Yunlong rides the red rabbit horse, it will take about ten minutes to arrive.

"Driving~driving~driving~"

Li Yunlong rode a red rabbit horse and flew quickly towards the gold mine, while Zhao Gang rode an ordinary horse's fart, and was suddenly left behind by Li Yunlong, which made Zhao Gang keep shouting in the back: "Lao Li, wait for me, wait for me!" ”

But Li Yunlong was anxious to see this gold mine, and he had long been gone.

This gold was originally discovered by the Japanese army, and after investigation, the Japanese army found that there were minerals here but did not know that it was gold, so they ordered people to mine it.

At that time, when the mining was just halfway through, and before it was determined what this mineral was, Li Yunlong led the independent regiment to attack the city, and finally drove the Japanese army away.

After the Japanese army was annihilated, the independent regiment took over the mine and continued to mine, but I didn't expect this to be a gold mine, and it looked like the number was not small.

When Li Yunlong arrived at the gold mine, it had been defended by a battalion of the Independent Regiment, after all, this was a gold mine, and the amount was unknown, and he didn't know how much gold could be extracted!

Although there is only one battalion of troops, because of the proximity to Jiangcheng, once there is any disturbance in the gold mine, the main force in the city can be quickly dispatched.

It was the third battalion that defended the gold mine, and when the commander of the third battalion saw Li Yunlong coming, he hurriedly trotted over, saluted a military salute, and then said: "Regiment commander, our independent regiment is going to make a fortune!" ”

"Good guys!"

Li Yunlong walked into the mine quickly, at this time the mine had already begun, and the dirt and rocks on the surface had been removed, and a part of the gold ore had been excavated.

There are many types of gold deposits, mainly conglomerate type, greenstone belt type, quartz vein type, Carlin type, porphyry type, etc., and it looks like a rich gold mine.

According to the gold ore excavated, it can be seen that it is natural gold, but it is not pure gold, it must be gold-containing minerals.

Natural gold can be divided into bright gold according to its particle size, microscopic gold, submicroscopic gold, with the increase of Ag content, the color and streaks gradually become lighter, and the density gradually decreases.

Li Yunlong looked at the color of these mined gold, the color and streaks were obviously lighter, and it was obvious that the content of this gold ore was very high.

"It's sent, this time our independent regiment is really sent! It's a gold mine! ”

Of course, Li Yunlong, who came from the future world, knew the role and ability of this gold mine, it was simply more nouveau riche than the nouveau riche, and now this gold mine still belongs to the independent group!
