The Taoist chief that Chen Zhi said in his mouth was named Ge Lu. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

This Ge Lu also has some origins, he is in Youzhou with Chen Zhi, he is considered an old team, and he has an extraordinary background, he is the relative of the little fairy Weng Ge Hong, according to the generation, the two can be regarded as equals.

However, this Ge Lu is a few years younger than Ge Hong, and since he was ten years old, he has been following Ge Hong's side, when Ge Hong was refining pills, he was doing chores on the side, and if Ge Hong wrote a Taoist notebook, he would also have to wait beside him.

This is actually Ge Hong's long-term follower, and in a sense, he can be called a disciple.

In fact, among Ge Hong's many relatives, there are not many who can be valued and appreciated by Ge Hong, this Ge Lu is one of them, Chen Zhi returned to Pengcheng before going to work, and sat down with many famous people from the north and south, and there was Ge Hong, a little fairy.

However, in the end, when Chen Zhi went north to Youzhou, the little immortal Weng Ge Hong did not really accompany him, and finally sent his relatives and disciples over.

According to Ge Hong's statement, Ge Lu has gained a lot of his skills and true inheritance, and after learning the means of alchemy, he also has the ability to identify Danfang.

But since he followed Chen Zhi, he didn't show too many skills, at least compared to a few other people, he is still very low-key, and his people are also peaceful, not impatient, not bored, living in seclusion every day, most of the time in his own house, I don't know what to do, sometimes I go out, as if I am wandering aimlessly, in this generation of county towns and outside the city.

At this time, hearing Chen Zhi's praise, the Taoist chief shook his head unhurriedly and smiled: "It's too conservative to praise, the poor Dao doesn't have any big skills, but it's okay to identify one or two Dan stones, and ask yourself." ”

At first glance, a few people on the side thought that this Taoist priest was modest, but when they tasted it carefully, they found the deep meaning inside, where there was a little bit of modesty, and it was clearly praising Chen Zhi for being right.

These people also have a background, and it is under Chen Zhi's special instructions that the outstanding ones selected from the families sent to them have all dealt with mineral deposits in the past, and they are not mining in the general sense, but have also carried out similar behaviors to exploration.

"With the guidance of the Tao and the help of you, you will be able to catch it." After Chen Zhi praised Ge Lu, he took advantage of the situation to praise these prospectors.

"We will go all out, but this mining is not simple, Taishou you want to look around this generation of county, it is really not easy, I have waited these days, and I have also walked around here, and I have not seen any trace." The man at the head said this, his name was Chen Jing, his surname was Li, and because he had completely defected to the Chen family, he simply changed his surname.

He persuaded him to talk to Chen Zhi about the method of prospecting to prevent Chen Zhi from commanding in disorder.

In fact, not only this Chen Jing, but even the Taoist priest Ge Lu was actually weighing in his heart, whether to tell Chen Zhi the truth and prevent them from wasting their efforts here.

Of course, Chen Zhi knows that the iron ore in this generation of counties will not be discovered until later generations, and it is indeed difficult to see traces at the moment, but this land in later generations is in Wei County, where there are coal mines and a small amount of iron ore.

This county is close to Bingzhou, that is, the land of Shanxi in later generations, that Shanxi is a rich place of coal, rich in reserves, because there are also coal mines here, and although the reserves of iron ore are not much, but it is also relatively speaking, but it takes effort to mine, and Chen Zhi has also countermeasures for this.

The top priority is to find a suitable reason to let the group of people in front of them take action, so that with the "search for the talisman", there is also a saying for finding mineral deposits.

Or, as long as a certain authority is established to make people believe his words, then even if there is no strict reason, these people can be searched for with all their hearts.

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Zhi had an idea.

"I also know a thing or two about the difficulty of prospecting," he smiled slightly, "There are some key points involved, and if you need it, you can put it forward." ”

Chen Jing's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but say, "I don't know how much do you know, Lord?" ”

On the side, Taoist priest Ge Lu also heard about it, and looked sideways slightly, showing anticipation.

Bao Jingyan, who rushed to hear the news, also arrived, and when he heard this, he asked with interest: "Taishou's words are never false, even if you say a little knowledge, then maybe they are all proficient, I don't know if Taishou knows the method of concentrated mineral prospecting?" ”

The art of mineral prospecting in China has existed in the pre-Qin period, and the miners with the inheritance have the identification and prospecting technology of minerals.

Chen Zhi said with a smile: "That is, I just know one or two sentences, "Zhou Li" said: 'The land of gold, jade, tin, and stone is in the palm of the people. That's where my knowledge of this mineral deposit comes from. ”

The "卝" here is the "mine", the same sound, symbolizing the mining, the head of the shaft, the two horizontal for the surface, the two vertical for the support of the shaft, the back plate to be higher than the ground, is the beauty of the hieroglyphs, relying on a glyph, the previous mining technology is expressed.

Later generations have confirmed that the mines of the Shang and Zhou dynasties are just as described in this character.

Bao Jingyan said with a smile: "The miner is the way of gold and stone, and the "Interpretation of Words" says: gold, five-color gold; Stone, mountain stone also, too keep a word, just say the key. ”

Chen Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and also smiled and flattered: "What the lord said is very true, in the future, if there are any allusions to this mineral search, I have to ask the lord." ”

Wei Nadao priest Ge Lu shook his head slightly, seemingly slightly disappointed.

Chen Zhixiao glanced at Chen Jing, knowing that this person had selfish intentions, he was going to knock it, this prospecting was in his plan, he didn't move before, firstly, there was not enough security, and secondly, he was unwilling to startle the snake and make a wedding dress for others, and now these two problems have been alleviated to a certain extent, so he began to arrange.

The matter of mineral deposits is related to the future development of Chen Zhi, and it is not trivial to use the sign of the sticker, which is not trivial, and at the beginning, it must not be allowed to ferment.

So he said: "This mining relies on craftsmanship and inheritance, not literature, but there is indeed a legend in this literature, and the article "Inner Reserve" in "Han Feizi" is an example. ”

When Bao Jingyan and Ge Lu heard this, they came to the spirit, and the former said: "I want to hear it in detail." ”

Chen Zhi smiled and said: "It's easy to say, but one sentence: In the land of Jingnan, gold is born in Lishui, and many people steal gold." In fact, it is talking about gold panning, which is to rely on the method of sedimentation and sorting to find minerals, and the "Shape Retention Chapter" of "On Balance" says: The flow of turbulence, sand and gravel turn to big stones and do not move. Who? The boulder is heavy and the sand is light. The sand and stones accumulate on the boulders, and the boulders are gone, which is exactly the reason. ”

When these words fell, Chen Jing's eyelids jumped, Ge Lu smiled and nodded, and Bao Jingyan simply stroked his palms and smiled, and said: "This is the heavy sand prospecting, to wash the loose, in the residue, slope, alluvium, take its things, it is indeed the method of prospecting, although it is more common, but the average person does not know that this method is prospecting, they all think it is treasure hunting, too shou said this, if it is proficient in mineral prospecting." ”

"This is to lift me," Chen Zhi shook his head, "The so-called art industry has a specialty, I also know a thing or two, but the trick of the method of prospecting can indeed be found from the words of some predecessors, such as the book "Pipe", there is an article "Number of Places", which says, 'There is ochre on the mountain, and there is iron under it; and he that has lead on it, silver underneath it; He who has dansha on it has gold under it; Whoever has a magnet on it, and copper and gold under it', all these things are found from the outside and the inside, and the subtleties are known. ”

He said many methods, and everyone in front of him was surprised and surprised, and Chen Jing's face changed several times, and finally he couldn't help but say: "These many methods have also been taught by my ancestors, but I don't know that the ancestors have already recorded them, and the Tao is a unique method, and the few methods spoken by the lord are beyond the legend of my family." ”

"Your words are suspected of flattery," Chen Zhi still shook his head, and said with a straight face: "My kind is actually an axe from the class, far inferior to you, because your search for the law is an ancestral tradition, and it has been confirmed by many experiences, and I am just talking on paper, and the laws I said are actually different." ”

"Yes, yes," Taoist Ge Lu nodded with a smile, "Tai Shouguo is to know, this ochre is looking for iron, in fact, it is to weathering and looking for Dan stone, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" also said: 'There is beautiful ochre, then its yang is more gold, its yin is more iron, and ochre is used to find iron, which has been known in ancient times, and my teacher once said that the iron ore in the red mountain is like a stone, and the color is slightly red. ”

Chen Zhi also smiled: "It is this truth, in addition to the difference between the ochre, the lead, dansha, magnet I just mentioned, there is lead and red copper under the mausoleum, and the silver mountain on the mountain and the Dan under the mountain, in fact, they are all symbiotic methods, this is another method of mineral prospecting, iron-copper symbiosis, lead-copper symbiosis, silver-mercury symbiosis, etc., all have traces to follow." ”

"If you are an expert in this way," Ge Lu nodded in praise, but then changed his words, "But in this case, Taishou should know that it is not easy to find such a location in this Dai County, at least in Dai County, otherwise this mineral deposit should have been mined a long time ago." ”

When Chen Jing and the others heard this, they all nodded slightly and agreed, but Bao Jingyan's expression changed slightly, showing interest, looking at Chen Zhi, and making a waiting.

Chen Zhi was calm and said with a smile: "This is true, but you should also know that some of the methods of prospecting mentioned above are actually looking for those mineral deposits that are more obviously hidden. ”

Each time he said a method, the surprise on the faces of others increased.

"These methods, involving manpower and energy, are greater, consume more time and material resources, and are often combined with mining projects, which is a more complex prospecting method, without enough endurance and energy, without enough power guidance, it is difficult to produce results, and what Chen wants to do now is this! However, there is a little difference from what you think, Chen has a unique method of prospecting, and using this method can get twice the result with half the effort. ”
