Chapter 40: Robbery
The veins washed out by Jamie have been initially detected and have a very large surface area.
Of course, I don't know how big the Meron is, this is just an estimate, especially how deep the ground is, no one can say for sure without an instrument to measure it.
Meron ordered people to dig some pits at random, and in some places there were still seven or eight meters old, and in some places they were gone after two meters.
In addition to these, ore is not everywhere, there is a certain direction, and human blood vessels, there is no metal ore where the blood vessels should exist, but limestone can be seen everywhere, which makes Meron's mind active again.
As for what metal, Meron asked Alina to take the ore samples to Fort Dubai, where there was a way to test it, calculate the time, and return in these two days.
Meron has many high-tech methods to judge metal, but there is no corresponding material, so it can only stare dryly.
For example, in terms of weapons, Meron thought about getting some aircraft cannons or something at first, and finally thought about it......
Not to mention aircraft cannons and machine guns, you can't even make the most garbage muskets, there is no nitric acid and sulfur, you can be a big-headed ghost, and you have no choice but to go to Fort Dubai to exchange metal for big swords and swords.
"Lord Viscount, Miss Yalina is back."
Meron, who was staying in the animal skin tent, was a little bored, and suddenly there was a sound of excitement outside.
Before Meron could get up, a group of mermaids rushed in, it was Alina and O'Neid and the others.
"Lord Viscount, we're back!"
O'Neid gave a standard warrior salute and said excitedly.
"Well, hard work!"
Meron nodded slightly, feeling a little emotion in his heart.
It is said that O'Neid is old-fashioned and doesn't like words, so it turns out that it's really like that, but now in addition to being very serious during training, he usually has a smile on his face and talks a lot, and he basically has the signs of becoming a chatterbox.
At this moment, O'Neid's mouth was about to crack, indicating that the answer to identify the metal made them excited, and indirectly proved Meron's conjecture.
"It is O'Neid's honor to serve Lord Viscount!"
Saluting again, O'Neid stood aside and said no more, apparently deciding that the metal message was best for Alysna.
"You've worked hard, come, sit down and rest for a while, and drink a cup of hot water first."
Yalina and the others came back a day earlier than expected, and they should have been working day and night to bring the information back early, and they must have been very tired along the way.
Taking the hot water handed over by Meron, Yalina tried to keep a straight face and said, "Don't you want to know what kind of metal it is?" ”
Shrugging his shoulders, Meron deliberately made an indifferent appearance: "No matter what metal it is, it is already determined when it is formed, and it is not something that I will change if I want to or not." ”
"Cut!" Yalina glanced at Meron with disdain and said disdainfully.
Although it looks like that, but the ghost believes!
But those people in the escort team looked at Meron with admiration, sure enough, it was Lord Viscount, if it was someone else......
"If you don't want to know, forget it."
Alina tilted her head to the side, trying her best to say lightly.
It's just that anyone can see that she is very excited and wants to share the news with everyone, and she is uncomfortable without saying it.
Compared with the appetite, Meron thought that he was not weak, and sure enough, within half a minute, Yalina couldn't hold back: "For your poor sake, Miss Shangben won't bother with you, this time there are two things that need to be told to you in addition to metal." ”
"The Earl has asked people to check that it is indeed silver, which means that we are a silver mine here."
After saying that, Yalina's little face flushed with excitement, she couldn't imagine that she could sit on a silver mine, she hadn't even seen silver a few months ago.
There is no centralized system of currency issuance in this world, and whoever finds gold and silver is anyone's, as long as you have the goods, it is genuine.
As for how big the silver mine is, not only Yalina, but also Meron has not considered this issue.
Sure enough, it was silver, Meron sighed a little about his luck, and of course even more at Jamie's small solution!
Happy to happy, Meron was not excited about Yalina to that extent, when he found out, Meron felt that nine times out of ten it was silver, but there was no professional appraisal, so he didn't dare to jump to conclusions.
"In addition to that, I have two more things to tell you." At the mention of this, Yalina's expression became a lot more serious.
Perhaps influenced by Yalina, Meron also became serious: "What's the matter? ”
"The first thing is about silver mines. The Earl didn't ask us about the size of the silver mines, but as I was leaving, the Earl mentioned that there was only one silver mine in Duke Bubai's domain, and that there were 10,000 of Duke Bubai's most elite soldiers stationed next to it. ”
Hearing this, Meron frowned, he didn't believe that Bent just said casually, he must have reminded himself of something.
The wealth is moving, although Meron is a viscount, but he has a few pounds and a few taels in his heart, and the armed forces around him are too few, only thirty or forty members of the escort team, which is not as good as most barons.
If the news of the silver mine spreads, it will inevitably attract the covetousness of people with a heart, and it is obvious that Bent reminds of this.
"Another thing that Korda asked me to tell you privately is that he has a deal to do, and if you are interested, you need to bring some men to join him in five days at Grantown, and he was going to let his men inform you."
"Oh? What's the matter? Meron raised his eyebrows, he was interested, this was the first time that Keda had asked him to cooperate.
Meron, the town of Gran, also knows and has been there once, and is the closest town to Fort Tron.
Perhaps under the influence of Fort Tron, the town of Gran is also relatively prosperous, but for some reason, there is no lord in the town of Gran, which is very rare, which is also one of the reasons why Meron has a deep impact.
Yalina paused, and her eyes flashed with a gleam: "Koda didn't say what he did specifically, but he said that some time ago, his private team went to Tronburg to sell salt, and was robbed at night, and only one of the more than ten people in the group escaped and was seriously injured." ”
Hearing this, a hint of an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of Meron's mouth, and he could figure out what happened to Koda's men, but those people were not as lucky as themselves.
At the mention of Tronburg, Meron thought of Tong Laga again, as if his luck had not decreased since he saw that unlucky ghost, but had become stronger and stronger.
As for the business that Koda said, jumping the fleas on the top of the bald man's head is very clear.
As the heir of the earl, he couldn't swallow this breath, this was to go back to the past to rob.
That's right, it's robbery, and he's going to treat others the way they do!
As for why you want to call yourself, I don't know, how it is, I can only know when I see Koda.
As a smart woman, Yalina naturally knew what Keda meant, and seeing that Meron didn't speak, she couldn't help asking, "Then should we go?" ”
Meron nodded: "Of course I go, in addition to eliminating harm for the people, this is also a sure deal." ”
In this regard, Yalina did not make sense, and she also advocated that Meron take someone there.
Although there is a certain risk, the income is also proportional, and the refined salt of the white flower flower alone is worth a lot of money.
Besides, those people are indeed hateful, I don't know how many people have died in their clutches, and their cruelty to women, so that Yalina's kind heart cannot raise any sympathy.
Last time, if it wasn't for the lack of manpower, even if he couldn't attack Fort Tron, he would have wiped out all the other squads that Tong Laga said.
