Chapter 242: Red Copper
Things have already happened, and it's too late to say anything now, so hurry up and clean up the scene so as not to startle the snakes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Tell me, Xiyi, what are you going to do?" Su Yang still wanted to fight for it to see if he could ask something.
As a result, naturally no one answered, even primitive people were not so stupid as to be so stupid, they were going to die, would they still report to the people who killed them?
But seeing Su Yang said again: "It doesn't matter if you don't say it, I will kill all of you Xiyi people, don't you like sky burial, I just won't give you the opportunity to be buried......"
"You, you will die, and the salt clan will also die." The Xiyi were furious, and then they really hung up.
"It's all buried, dust to dust."
Now I have to continue to wait for the news from the spring side, I didn't expect the unreliable spear throwing team to be so strong now, of course, they took advantage of the time and place just now. On the other hand, if the Xiyi people enter the bear area, they can easily wipe out their team of several people.
In the case of similar weapons on both sides, the battle competition is a competition of training and numbers. Especially in the face of surprise attacks, you can really only rely on the number of people to decide the victory.
Just now, the Xiyi people also revealed the information, mentioning the Yan clan, and the tone was the same as when they were said. It is highly likely that the Xiyi people are robbing the Youyan clan, but it is about a month earlier than last year.
Could it be that the Xiyi people wanted to grab the Youyan clan first, and then organize people to grab the Youxiong clan, so they adjusted the travel time in previous years?
If so, then Youyan's is considered to have been pitted, because of the previous transaction, Youxiong exchanged three times for a hundred catties of salt, but only completed twice, even so, this year's reserves of Youyan's are not as rich as in previous years, especially during this time.
Then the Xiyi people suddenly came to the door in advance, and Ya could not come up with the same supplies as in previous years, which would definitely break out into conflict. In addition, the appetite of the Xiyi people may have grown and they want more salt; On the contrary, Ya united with other tribes to form an alliance, with a total population of more than 800, according to nearly 30%, it can make up 200 fighting forces, and if necessary, the whole people can fight!
If the Xiyi people still go with the same men as last year, I am afraid that they will lose the battle, at least they will not be able to defeat the Youyan clan.
In this case, the Xiyi people will inevitably send people back to bring rescue troops, so the few people killed just now are in line with the inference.
If he really killed the messenger inadvertently, then the Xiyi people on the side of the Youyan clan will suffer at this time, as long as Ya can be tough and fight to the death with the Xiyi people, most of them will be able to win in the end.
Sure enough, it is possible for a butterfly to stir its wings to cause a storm, of course, this is just his speculation, and it is very likely to be contrary to the facts, and he will be slapped in the face.
"Sue, what kind of gem do you think this is?"
Pabhu's voice came, and he was stunned as soon as he turned around, only to see Pabhu holding a dozen thumb-sized faceted red crystals in his hand, like cut rubies, blood diamonds? Isn't this scientific, is there such a natural faceted diamond-shaped gemstone?
"Where did you find it, huh, why is it so heavy?" Su Yang took the gem and was stunned again, feeling that this ruby was about the same weight as iron.
As he looked at it, Prabhu replied, "It was found from the Xiyi people, and it must have been snatched from the Twilight Tribe." ”
"Not necessarily, Twilight's gems are different." I've traded it before, and Twilight's jade is not the same weight and texture as the one in my hand.
He looked at the red gem, and then at the mahogany mountains in front of him, and at the red earth under his feet, could it be that this stone was a specialty of the Xiyi people?
The color of the gemstone is red, shiny and shiny, it is very beautiful, but it is a little heavier, how about trying the hardness.
He felt that the ruby was so heavy that it must be very dense, and if it was hard, it could be polished into a useful tool, or even as a part of a weapon, otherwise it would be useless just for ornamentation.
"Bang!" As soon as the axe went down, everyone was dumbfounded, and it was like smashing a walnut, and the gem shattered.
"Sue, I didn't try too hard." Prabhu thought he had made a mistake, but he smashed it with a stone axe, and it shattered into several pieces, and some of them were deformed.
Su Yang waved his hand, it was just a stone, and if it was broken, it would be broken. It's just that this situation is not right, the density is so great, but the hardness is so bleak, what is the use of using it? Even if you use it as a gem, I'm afraid it won't change anything, it's too small, it's too fragile, and the texture is still a little soft.
An hour later, they returned, and each of them had more or less stones in their hands, and said as if to take credit: "Sue, do you see these are gems?" ”
"Ugh!" Su Yang rubbed his eyes, convinced that he was not mistaken, and hurriedly asked everyone to put the stones together, he picked up one of them, about the size of a palm, the bottom was green, and on the top was a cake of red particles, which was the kind of ruby just now.
"We picked up these stones in the mountains over there, and the Xiyi people live in the mountains over there, and they are guarded, and we don't get too close." Haru reports on the situation of the investigation.
Su Yang was trying to think about the true body of these stones, what was it?
I put down the piece in my hand, and picked up the other stones to look at, they were all the same, the green stones were much lighter than the red ones, they were also fragile, and they smelled a little faint and familiar, but I couldn't say it.
"Boom!" He smashed open a block of red clay on it, not realizing that the inside of the stone was actually reddish-yellow metal.
"Holy, is this copper?"
Su Yang was dumbfounded, he had imagined the way copper appeared before, and thought that it might be when primitive people needed to use fire when cooking, or burning pottery, etc., he accidentally discovered it. I never expected it to be smashed out of his hands.
The piece in front of me is no longer a stone but a metal, could it be that this is natural copper? Gold has dog's head gold, and of course there is natural copper in copper mines, but in very small quantities.
He immediately asked Prabhu to hit the red copper with a Pangu axe, and sure enough, his guess was confirmed, and the red copper was only deformed, not broken. Although it is not possible to determine how much copper it contains, it is certainly already a metal.
Of course, he couldn't have smelted copper, but there are many opportunities to see copper in modern times, and this color should not be another metal, and the weight feels similar.
If we extrapolate from natural copper, it can be explained that the green stone is malachite, which can be used as a natural decoration, and of course can also be used to smelt copper. And the particles he thought were red gems were cuprite, which had a copper content of nearly 90 percent, which belonged to cuprous.
The reason why he can name these stones and have an impression of copper ore is because he has been frying metals for a while, so he has seen some information cursoryly. It's also a shame that I have a strong memory now.,I only recall it after it's triggered.,When you see the real thing, it's on the number.。
However, whether it is natural copper, cuprite, or malachite, its quantity should be relatively small, which is a companion of copper ore and an important symbol of finding copper ore. But now it seems to be everywhere, so how rich is the copper ore under this mountain?
At this moment, Su Yang's eyes were full of red light, copper is also very valuable, and the most important thing is that the appearance of copper marks the coming of a new era. (To be continued.) )
