The Rise of Primitive Tribes Farming

Chapter 407 Gold Mining

Gold, among primitive tribes, has not been widely used.

One of the reasons is that gold is relatively rare. In this world, this is the first time Chenbei has seen a whole piece of gold.

The second reason is that gold is too soft, even if it is found occasionally, it will be regarded as a useless stone.

The most fundamental reason is that the tribe is still too poor, and it is a problem to have enough food and clothing. How can they have time to study which stones are the most beautiful, and even make them into utensils?

However, compared to other tribes, the Mang tribe is different.

Because of the existence of Chenbei, the development of the Mang tribe has far surpassed other tribes. Therefore, gold is useful in the Mang tribe, and it is very useful!

The current currency system of the Mang tribe is too simple. There are only bronze coins, which is still inconvenient in many cases.

For example, a large transaction requires a large number of bronze coins.

For ordinary snacks and the like, one bronze coin is too much, and more goods need to be collected to trade.

Although for most tribal people, trading with bronze coins is much better than bartering at the beginning.

However, Chen Bei is dissatisfied because he has seen a perfect currency system.

Therefore, the emergence of gold can be said to have come just at the right time, allowing Chenbei to mint gold coins with a higher value than bronze coins.

At the same time, Chenbei intends to re-use tin coins, but will add a small amount of copper to the tin to make it stronger and wear-resistant.

Tin coins, bronze coins, gold coins, if you can find silver coins in the future, add a silver coin, the currency system of the Mang tribe will be relatively complete, at least in this era, it is definitely enough, and can adapt to various transaction needs .

Therefore, there is no doubt that Shanluo, a guy with unlucky luck, has made great achievements again.

Chen Bei shouted to the soldiers at the gate of the courtyard: "Qing Xia, go find Ya."

Green Shrimp is the name of the guard at the gate of Chenbei, an intermediate totem warrior, one of the two guards of Chenbei, the other is called Blue Shrimp.

They weren't called this name originally, but they changed their name after they joined the Mang tribe.

"Yes!"

The green shrimp quickly ran to the flamingo breeding area, found Ya, and brought him here.

Ya had just become the captain of the trading team, and was gearing up to lead the trading team out to make deals, but he was called over by Chen Bei before he set off, so he was quite disturbed.

"Boss, do you have anything to tell me?"

"Tooth, your trading team has postponed your departure, and go digging gold mines with me first."

"Okay...Ok..."

The teeth are a little confused, what is a gold mine?But as a loyal admirer of Chenbei, he doesn't need to know what a gold mine is, he just needs to go with Chenbei.

Not long after, Chen Bei took Shanluo and a dozen people from the Chuanshan tribe to the place where they found gold on the flamingo of the flamingo team.

It is worth mentioning that, for the convenience of digging, Chenbei also brought two giant pangolins.

These two pangolins were wrapped in net bags and tied to the back of the flamingo. When they flew into the sky, they were so frightened that they lay on the back of the flamingo and shivered, not daring to move.

From the Mang tribe to the place where the gold was discovered, it took Shanluo and the others three days to cross the mountains on foot, but it only took three hours to get there by flamingo.

Soon, they came to the stream.

Chen Bei held up the piece of gold and said: "Everyone can see clearly, any stone with this color and luster, regardless of its size, will be picked up."

"Yes!"

The soldiers of the flamingo team began to search in the creek and the nearby land, looking very carefully.

Chen Bei asked the two giant pangolins and a few members of the Chuanshan tribe to dig holes beside the creek to see if there were any gold mines underground.

"Ahhhhhh..."

Although the legs of the two giant pangolins were a bit weak when they came down from the sky, they were still very fast when they dug up the soil.

Not long after, two large holes and two large piles of soil appeared on the ground.

"Boss, I found a piece!"

A warrior raised his hand excitedly in the creek. In his hand, he held a natural gold a little bigger than his thumb.

"Okay! There is a reward for returning to the tribe, keep looking!"

Chen Bei went over and brought over the small piece of gold. The soldier rubbed his hands excitedly, this time he turned over more carefully.

It didn't take long for someone to find it again, but they were not very big, and they didn't look good. The surface was bumpy, like some kind of lumpy object.

The underground excavation is still going on. The giant pangolin does not dig all the way underground, but after digging to a certain depth, it digs horizontally and vertically, almost hollowing out the underground.

Finally, after digging for a long time, Chen Bei suddenly discovered that there was a stone mixed in the excavated soil, and a lot of gold was attached to it.

Chen Bei picked up the stone and saw that it was a crystal quartz stone, and gold was attached to its surface, a thin layer, which looked inconspicuous and even a little ugly.

Chen Bei shouted to the inside of the earth cave: "Don't dig yet, come out."

Soon, the two giant pangolins retreated, and the warriors of the Chuanshan tribe also came out, looking blankly at Chen Bei.

"Chief Chen, what's wrong?"

Chen Bei held up the quartz stone with gold on it, and said, "This stone is also gold, and it's what we need."

The Chuanshan Tribe warrior scratched his head and said, "I thought the gold was all in one piece, so I didn't care."

Chen Bei said: "As long as it is this color, pay attention to it. After all, the whole piece is a minority."

"Work hard, and everyone will be rewarded with bronze coins when we go back."

The warriors of the Chuanshan tribe, after living in the Mang tribe for a period of time, have already understood the benefits of bronze coins.

Therefore, after hearing that there would be a bronze coin reward when they went back, they dug harder one by one.

Some gold ores were dug out one after another, and the gold content in them was not low, which made Chen Bei happy.

Not only that, but in the creek and in the soil, many smaller gold nuggets were also picked up. This place can definitely be regarded as a rich mine.

It was the first time for Chen Bei to experience such a thing as digging a gold mine, so every time a piece of gold mine appeared, he would be very excited.

And this excitement reached its peak when the giant pangolin dug out a huge gold ore.

"Boss Chen, I got it, I got it, it's so big!"

In the cave, the warriors of the Chuanshan Tribe shouted. Obviously, they had made a great discovery.

"Quick, go in and help move out!"

Chenbei immediately let dozens of Chuanshan tribe warriors next to him also enter the cave to help the people below move the gold ore.

On the ground, a huge gold ore taller than a person lay quietly in the soil. The ore was covered with a golden layer, which was solidified gold in a fluid state.

Because the gold ore was too big to be moved out of the cave, the people of the Chuanshan tribe had to dig upwards, directly digging a big hole in the ground, and it took a lot of effort to finally expose the huge gold ore. off the ground.

The sun shines on the gold ore, and the gold ore that has been buried for an unknown number of years shines brightly.

"So big?"

Even Chen Bei was shocked. How much would such a large gold ore be worth in the previous life?

He jumped down into the big pit himself, hugged the giant gold ore with both hands, then lifted it above his head, and threw it into the open space next to it.

"Boom!"

The huge gold ore smashed a big hole in the ground, attracting everyone's onlookers.
