In order to facilitate Xu Le and the joint survey of the player's actions, Lin Ran also selected two good horses from the stable, and first used them as a means of transportation for the two of them to reduce the time required for labeling. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

With horses, Xu Le drew maps many times faster than before, but in ten days, the two of them ran all over Yuzhang County, carefully marking the location of the surveyed iron ore on the map.

Lin Ran rewarded them, and asked the two of them to hurry to the inn to rest, and then took the map in his hand and began to ponder it carefully.

The map clearly marks the mining sites of Yuzhang County, and the approximate reserves of the mineral deposits and the distribution of some forces around the mineral deposits are also marked below.

Lin Ran counted it, there are three large mines with reserves of more than 10,000 tons in Yuzhang County, respectively, in the north of Yuzhang County, there is a Sheng Tieshan iron ore mine, with reserves of more than 10,000 tons. To the west, there is an August red iron mine, and it is said that in August, it is common to see the entire mountain turn into a bright red flame at dusk. To the south is the Daqingshan Iron Mine. These iron ore reserves are huge, and there are a large amount of iron ore on the surface alone, and you don't even need to dig below the surface to collect iron ore directly on the surface.

Of course, such a large iron ore mining area is definitely not something that one or two small villages can control, and these mining areas gather a large number of small villages, and there are often fights between each other over the ownership of iron ore.

In addition, there are ten medium-sized mines with reserves of more than 5,000 tons in Yuzhang County, which are distributed in all directions of Yuzhang County, and are generally entrenched by about six or seven villages, using iron ore resources to develop the village economy.

There are also twenty or thirty small mines of more than 1,000 tons, and some powerful villages can be monopolized by one person, but such mines are generally buried deep underground, and the difficulty and cost of excavation are much more than that of medium-sized large mines, and the situation is not very good. The iron ore in Jiuge Village falls into this category.

According to the price of Jiuge Village, there is still some market in the nearby villages, but in those villages with large and medium-sized mines, the price is too high, and there is no market at all.

Other micro-deposits with reserves of less than 1,000 tons are not included.

In general, although many mining sites have been occupied by some player villages that have been predetermined by the prophets, there are still many mining sites that have not yet been discovered by players, such as medium-sized mines, there are at least three mines that have not been discovered and developed by players, and small mines have ten undiscovered mines, Lin Ran If he wants to control the iron ore in Yuzhang County, he must first control these mines that have not been discovered and developed, and these places have not yet been interfered by player forces, which is the easiest and easiest.

After Lin Ran controlled these mines, he slowly infiltrated other mines and large mining areas.

Lin Ran looked at the various intricately intertwined player forces and NPC forces on the map, but his heart was very clear and clear. At this time, whoever controls the important iron ore resources controls the entire Yuzhang County!

In the specific implementation of this plan, Lin Ran did not take the method of sending troops to occupy these mining sites, and then sending people to mine, first of all, there are so many mining sites, no matter how strong Xiaobai Village is, it is impossible to take care of them one by one, and secondly, there are not so many people in the small village who can develop so many mining areas.

Lin Ran's approach was to support two villages around the small mining area, give them financial support, let them develop, and occupy the mining area together with Xiaobai Village. As for why the two villages were chosen, the main reason is to allow them to check and balance each other in the future, and there will be no situation where one family is dominant, and it is difficult to control.

Lin Ran came to the first small mining site, there are several villages here, and the development is not very good. Lin Ran directly selected two places closest to the mine site and threw an agreement to the village chiefs of the two villages.

The two village chiefs picked it up at the same time and looked at it, overjoyed.

"Little White Village Alliance Agreement.

One. Xiaobai Village has formed an alliance with XX Village, giving the alliance village a certain amount of financial support, military protection, and helping the allies develop. If Xiaobai Village needs it, the Alliance Village will also send troops to help.

Two. Business Partnerships. Commodity allies in the White Village can negotiate a better price deal. Xiaobai Village also buys raw materials and commodities from Mengcun at a relatively favorable price.

Three. The price increase of commodity raw materials in Mengcun needs to be discussed with Xiaobai Village, and Xiaobai Village has the right to decide on changes in the price of commodities and raw materials. ”

At first glance, the two village chiefs seem to have this agreement completely beneficial to their own village, and Xiaobai Village has contributed money and people to help it develop, which is exactly what he wants.

It's just that what is Xiaobai Village trying to do? The two village chiefs were a little puzzled, they didn't see Lin Xiaobai like the kind of stupid old man who only knew how to suffer. Now promising so much help, in fact, Xiaobai only has one requirement, to get the right to decide the price of raw materials and commodities in his own village.

In this way, the economic lifeline of his village will not be held by Xiaobai Village. Although there are not many commercial transactions in their village now, it will be important if it is developed in the future.

In order to dispel their concerns, Lin Ran explained: "The third agreement is mainly to regulate the selling price of some of our commodities in the market, and the price is the same, so that there will be no mutual suppression of competition." And we can negotiate the price or something, and I won't give you any outrageous prices. ”

The two village chiefs agreed with Lin Ran's explanation, dispelled their concerns, and happily agreed to the agreement, officially becoming an alliance village in terms of economy and military.

The agreement signed this time is also different from the agreement entered into orally by ordinary players, and it is an alliance agreement that is recognized by the system.

If either party does not abide by or tears up the agreement, it will cause a certain reduction in prestige, honor and potential character value, etc., which has a certain binding force.

Using the same method, Lin Ran went to other small mining areas and selected nearby villages to form alliances. There are also some villages in the middle who are unwilling, and Lin Ran is not forced, so many villages around are waiting in line to cooperate with Xiaobai Village and get this excellent development opportunity.

The small mines were done one by one, and Lin Ran went to the medium-sized mines again. Medium-sized mines, unlike small-sized mines, require at least five villages to eat.

For several days, Lin Ran was busy with the various mining sites marked on the map, and he needed to keep this matter absolutely confidential, so he went into battle in person. Fortunately, after the efforts of the past few days, all the mining sites in Yuzhang County that have not been discovered by the player have been unknowingly surrounded and occupied by the alliance villages of Xiaobai Village.
