Chapter Seventy-One: Digged!
After years of erosion, it has also been overgrown with weeds, apparently for some time.
"Here?"
Zhu Zi looked at the few holes in front of him and picked them directly.
I didn't stop until I found the deepest place.
"Guys, bring everything."
After a brief look at the surrounding terrain, Zhu Zi also found the most suitable location, looked back at the farmers behind him and said.
A few of them are the key to whether or not we can find iron ore veins.
"Bring it!"
Several peasants, from behind, picked up a pickaxe and shovel, and each of them was equipped with a set, which was their digging tool.
"Then let's do it."
Zhu Zi nodded and picked up, leaving a few peasants below.
He doesn't have to worry about the rest of the things, he only needs to see if the farmers dig down, and they will be able to know if there are iron ore veins underneath.
"Your Highness, are you going to dig down?"
Wang Zhi also saw Zhu Zi's intentions and asked suspiciously.
Digging down, it's not that no one has tried before, but in the end they all ended in failure, and they also left pits all over the ground, Zhu Zi is now digging again, which makes him very incomprehensible, there is nothing, and what continue to dig.
"That's right, whether you can find the iron ore vein and solve the current urgent need depends on this step."
"Wait, they're very efficient, and it won't be long before they can dig underneath."
Zhu Zi nodded slightly, full of confidence.
He is still very confident in the special attributes of farmers, and he is not a joke when it comes to mining maniacs.
There is a specialization in calligraphy, and these peasants are professionals.
Wang Zhi and Zhu Zi sat on it and waited.
Soon, there was movement below, and there was only the sound of digging the earth, but suddenly a loud bang came.
"What's the situation?"
Zhu Zi heard the sound, lowered his head, and looked down.
"Your Highness, I've dug up the stones."
The peasants below shouted at the top.
"Stones."
Zhu Zileng paused, a little lost.
He thought he had dug up an iron ore vein, but it turned out to be just a stone, and he was happy in vain.
Below, there was another sound of digging stones, it was just a small episode, and they had to continue digging.
At the very least, you have to dig to a certain depth, and you can only stop after you are sure that there is no iron ore, and you have to keep digging down until you are sure.
I don't know how long it has been, but I saw that the pit was digging deeper and deeper.
"Got it! Got it! ”
A farmer suddenly shouted excitedly.
"I dug it too!"
There was another noise.
Zhu Zi, who was standing on it, didn't say a word, and went directly to the pit, dozens of meters in the air, with the help of the buffer of the rock wall, and landed safely on the ground.
"Haven't you found an iron ore vein? Where is it! ”
Zhu Zi said excitedly.
It's thirty-four meters from the ground, at least, a very deep position.
Several people dug down at the same time, and it took a long time to dig here.
"Here."
Several peasants said in unison.
They were discovered in succession, in several directions.
Zhu Zi hurriedly came to the place pointed by several peasants, and the color of the surrounding stones was completely different, and the yellow color was extremely eye-catching.
It's not just one place, it's like this in several places, and if it's not one, then it's very likely that there is an iron ore vein hidden here.
If it were just a single iron ore, there might only be one or two, but they were all dug so deep that if it was just a single iron ore, it was unlikely.
"Keep digging!"
Zhu Zi immediately issued an order to let several farmers continue to dig.
Whether it is an iron vein or not, digging deeper, you can determine, with what you see now, is the hope of the iron vein, or is it great.
"Your Highness, how's it going?"
Wang Zhi's shout came from above.
Zhu Zi dared to jump directly, but he didn't dare, such a deep hole, if he jumped down, he would be useless, and he didn't know why Zhu Zi dared to jump directly, the most important thing was that he jumped down, and he was still unscathed, which was the most terrifying.
When did King Joan become so powerful.
"You wait up there."
Zhu Zi glanced above and shouted.
Now he didn't have time to deal with Wang Zhi, he just wanted to make sure if it was an iron vein in front of him.
"Give me a pickaxe."
Zhu Zi took an iron pickaxe from a farmer's hand.
Without saying a word, I dug directly next to the iron ore I just saw, whether it is an iron ore vein or not, it depends on what I dig next.
Now Zhu Zi's strength is extraordinary, as soon as the draft goes down, a lot of gravel flies out in an instant, and he didn't dig a few times, and he saw the yellow iron ore again.
Seeing this, Zhu Zi smiled and continued to dig to the side.
"Your Highness! Underneath the stones, it's all iron ore! ”
Several peasants shouted.
Zhu Zi also dug a place, and there are no exceptions below, all iron ore.
"It seems that yes, we are lucky, down here, there is an iron ore vein!"
"With the iron ore vein, we will not be short of iron in the future, come here, dig a way up."
Zhu Zi showed ecstasy, luck is really not ordinarily good, what they lack now is iron, how long has it been, and they have found the iron ore vein by mistake.
This time, I came here with the mentality of giving it a try, and came to find out if I could find the iron ore vein, but I didn't expect them to find it.
The people who came here to look for iron ore before probably didn't expect that the iron ore vein was hidden under the stone, and what they saw was only the iron ore on the surface, only a little, and the real ore vein was hidden under the stone.
The stone was so hard that no one was willing to dig so deep that they took advantage of it and found the iron ore vein.
"Yes!"
Several peasants hurriedly came to Zhu Zi's face, and began to dig a road upwards in the direction Zhu Zi said.
They dig vertically, and the efficiency is indeed a lot faster, but they also face a problem, they can't go up when they come down.
If you want to go up, you have to dig a path from the side and climb up from below.
This difficulty, there is no doubt, is very great, because if you are not careful, you may collapse, once you collapse, it will fall short, and there may be because of the impact of the landslide, the soil on it will loosen, fall down, and fill in their back road.
All that can be used now is a pickaxe and a shovel at hand, except for a pile of dirt and some gravel at the back.
"Be careful, if you find something wrong, retreat immediately."
"The road is dug bigger, and even if you step on it, there is a place to stay."
After Zhu Zi gave a few more instructions, he turned his head and continued to study the iron ore vein.
He wanted to know how big this iron vein really was, but based on what they saw now, it was probably not small.
