That's what Song Qingyou was waiting for!

"We do need your help, but this is not the right place to talk, so let's move somewhere." Song Qingyou gave Wang Hang a look as he spoke.

Wang Hang immediately understood and introduced himself: "This official is the new commander of Kushui County, and the suppression of bandits is related to the livelihood of the people in the county, so it is better to go to the county government to discuss it in detail." ”

When they arrived at the county office, everyone sat down.

Xiao Qishu spoke, "At present, we only know that the three masters often haunt the vicinity of the First Line Valley, but we don't know where they settled after the looting, and how many people there were. I don't know if the two masters know anything about this? ”

Ran Ji thought for a while and replied: "At the beginning, the third child took away the younger ones in the village, but there were only about a hundred people, and then I don't know where to gather a group of splashes, and I will come back every once in a while to make trouble, about three or four hundred people." It's just that I don't know exactly where I will go. ”

Cheng Yuxi, who roughly understood the ins and outs of the whole matter, thought of a way, "The second master also said that they will make trouble every once in a while, why don't we take advantage of the opportunity for them to retreat after the incident in the stockade?" ”

Cui Ximao slapped the table, "Good way!" ”

After the matter was discussed, Wang Hang was about to invite Ran Ji to the room prepared at the back to rest, but he mentioned another matter, "If you want to suppress the bandits, do you have enough troops?" As far as I know, there are only a few dozen officials in Kushui County, and the third gang is all ruthless. ”

"Hey, hey!" Cui Ximiao smiled and said: "Don't worry, the second master, Kushui County is different from the past, and now the county soldiers have been recruited more than 1,000 people, so the camp is expanded." Besides, which of the soldiers brought out by my Cui Ximao is not brave enough to be opened! ”

"Is that so?" Ran Ji seemed surprised, "No wonder I saw some people in the camp who were different from ordinary people, but they were not wearing uniform uniforms, so they were clumsy. ”

This...... Cui Ximiao was a little embarrassed, and suddenly remembered the purpose of their trip, so he asked, "Have you gained anything from going out this time?" ”

"Of course there is!" In the last second, he was proud, and in the next second, Song Qingyou had a bitter face, "The ore vein has been found, but how to mine it." ”

"There are people in the village who used to buy and sell minerals, and then they were seized by dog officials and came to the village."

The search for the mountain bandits' lair has finally made progress, and the next thing is the first step in the matter of armor and weapons, this time it is really a blessing in disguise!

Ran Ji calculated, it has been a while since the last time they made trouble in the village, and it is estimated that the next time will be these few days, and after discussing everything, they are ready to leave and go back.

"That's right!" Before leaving, Ran Ji suddenly didn't know where to take out a pigeon and handed it to Song Qingyou, saying: "It's inconvenient to always run back and forth, this is a carrier pigeon trained in the village, and it can be used for communication in the future." ”

The most inconvenient thing in this era is the exchange of information, and Song Qingyou accepted it with a happy face.

The old doctor, the mine owner, and the pigeon trainer, I didn't expect that there would be so many capable people in Qingfeng Village.

Returning to his residence, Song Qingyou tried to recall the location where the ore vein was found, and easily took out the mineral resource detector to fiddle with, and accidentally discovered a hidden function.

There was actually a button hidden on the side of the detector, Song Qingyou pressed it in curiosity, and a boxy light curtain rose on the next side, and there was a small hoe sign on it, and then there was a very detailed road map.

If you really fall asleep, someone will send a pillow! Song Qingyou immediately found a pen and paper to draw down the route map.

After Ran Ji went back, it didn't take long for the person he mentioned who had been engaged in mineral trading to come, and he didn't think that he was still an acquaintance - that second brother Liu, and in addition to that, there were seven or eight young people behind him.

After chatting carefully, I learned that after Ran Ji went back, he told the relatives who were still in the village what the three masters had done, and these young people were the representatives they elected, hoping to persuade them to turn back when they suppressed the bandits, so as not to lose their lives.

Second Brother Liu is also an honest man, and he didn't rest when he arrived in Kushui County, so he directly asked where the ore veins were.

Song Qingyou took the map and led people to the location of the ore vein, and Second Brother Liu walked around in the deep ditch, and finally chose a place that was most severely impacted by the current, took out a small hoe from the small cloth bag behind him and began to dig up.

After digging a few times, he heard a crisp sound, and Second Brother Liu began to dig around again, and gradually, a big dark stone appeared in front of everyone.

Second Brother Liu changed another pair of tools, took out a pair of hammers and chisels, chiseled a small piece from the big stone, and took it in his hand to study it carefully.

Suddenly, he excitedly pulled Song Qingyou and sighed: "Good thing! Good stuff! ”

Song Qingyou was confused, "Can you explain in detail?" ”

"Look!" Second Brother Liu put a small piece of chiseled down in front of Song Qingyou, "The surface of this mine is golden-colored, the interior is brown-red, it is not transparent to the sun, and the powder is also dark red when twisted in the hand, and even the best hematite!" ”

Song Qingyou heard some of the things in front of her, but she understood the last sentence, hematite, it is also a more valuable mineral resource in Blue Star.

Then Second Brother Liu called someone to mark the surroundings, Song Qingyou guessed that it should be the estimated area of the vein, and at a glance, the area was not small!

After that, he officially entered the mining process, watching Liu Erge methodically command everyone to clean up the floating soil on the surface first, and then expose the ore deposit and dig out the ore little by little......

Song Qingyou had to sigh, sure enough, there is a specialization in the art industry.

Ding——

The sound of points arriving in your account sounded.

Song Qingyou found a corner where no one was there to enter the space, and opened the points as soon as possible, and this time there were as many as five hundred! This point rule is really a mystery.

But it's still far from the ultimate goal.

The ore finally had landed, and Song Qingyou took out the notes handed to her by the old blacksmith from the corner, which not only recorded how to forge, but also how to smelt, which was very comprehensive.

Iron smelting requires a large number of people, but fortunately, there are also many displaced people during this time, and they can find a job to avoid trouble, and there are some of them who can read and break words, so Song Qingyou will transcribe and distribute the smelting part.

Soon, furnaces for iron smelting were erected near the mine, and blasting equipment was also manufactured.

As for the forging part, Song Qingyou originally wanted to copy and distribute it, but Xiao Qishu reminded: "The matter of armor is very important, and it needs to be carefully considered. ”

At this time, Song Qingyou realized that she was in a feudal dynasty, and forging armor and weapons without permission was of the same nature as smuggling arms on the Blue Star!
