Chapter 134 Exploring the Wasteland
"This not only solves the construction problem over there, but also ensures safety, saving you from being unsafe in the past. After all, it is approaching the center of the wasteland. I don't know if there are any dangerous monsters."

Dick said, "That's really good, what do you think, Mason?"

Mason said: "The question about food..."

Feng Yu said: "There is no problem with the food, take it with us, and then we will ship it regularly through the fleet, and we will trade according to the price of the ore, so that no one will suffer.

However, the transportation of ore is more difficult. After all, the thing is too heavy. It would be great if a smelter could be established in situ for preliminary smelting. "

Dick thought for a while and said, "This matter has to be handed over to Mason, the mine master. There are many flint layers on the Great Wasteland, so it should not be difficult to find. If there is a flint mine near the magnetite, it can be smelted nearby."

Mason said, "I'll try."

Feng Yu said: "Then we have to wait for the soldiers to be trained before going prospecting, otherwise the Great Wasteland is still too dangerous.

By the way, Master Mason, do you think there are other minerals in this great wasteland? "

Mason thought for a while and said: "There should be a lot, after all, flint ore and magnetite have been discovered on the surface here.

However, most of the mineral veins on the Great Wasteland are buried under the thick soil layer, and the two types of mineral veins that are exposed on the surface like the ones found now are very few.

According to the ancient historical records of our dwarves, this great wasteland was not originally like this, and such a landform was formed little by little later.

Originally, before the start of the plane war thousands of years ago, this place was still a mountain range and forest, just like the Obscure Moon Forest.

But later, for unknown reasons, the automatic westward monsoon began to slowly deposit fine sand here.

Originally, because of the forest, the rainfall here was not bad, but later because of the plane war, the plants here were almost lost, so it became the current wasteland.

Also because of the sand and soil brought by the monsoon, most of the original mountains of the Great Wasteland were covered up, forming a soil layer that is now thinner and sandier as it goes east.

Most of the mountain ranges that originally contained mineral veins were buried underground, and only a few mountain peaks were exposed to the surface, so without excavation, very few mineral veins could be found. "

Feng Yu said in surprise: "There are still such vicissitudes!"

Mason said: "That's right, because we dwarves like to mine, and there are records of the mountain landscape very early, so I know some history of the Great Wasteland."

Feng Yu said: "I heard that the goblins trade with the desert empire eastward, and the deserts there are probably the source of the mud layer on the Great Wasteland.

High snow-capped mountains block the monsoons, which allow the soil to settle in the wasteland. "

"It should be like this. No one is too clear about the specifics. After all, it has been too long."

Feng Yu looked at them and said: "It would be great if we could find large-scale iron ore in the wasteland, I know a steam machine that runs on the ground like a steam ship.

If we have that kind of machine, we can connect the magnetite area and the Obscure Moon Forest on land, which will be faster than a steamship, but it is too much steel. The ones we are transporting from the Dwarf Kingdom now, Simply not enough. "

Dick said in surprise, "Is there a steam engine that can run on the ground?"

Feng Yu said with a smile: "Now we can make it, but it's just turning the driving propeller into a driving wheel, but that thing is useless, only the steam train running on a special track is useful."

Mason said: "When the magnetite mining is on the right track, I can try to find it."

Feng Yu said enthusiastically: "Master, as long as you find a large-scale iron ore in the Great Wasteland, I will take as much as you want, and buy it from you for real money. I guarantee that your clan will be richer than the Dragon Clan in the future."

Master Mason no longer knew what expression to respond to Feng Yu.

You say this Darren is talking in his sleep, he has a sincere face, but if you want to say that what he said is true, who would dare to believe it!

Dick smiled and patted the dazed Mason and said: "Don't doubt it, my brother Darren will do what I say, old man, hurry up and find iron ore in the wilderness, and you will make a fortune if you find your giant rock clan."

Feng Yu said: "Don't be idle, Dick. Take a guard to search around our camp. If you find it, you will count on it. I don't want it at all. I will buy it from you with money."

"Uh, let me try it!"

"Don't try it, you take the lead and organize a few more prospecting teams, set off together, and use the camp as the base point to investigate and explore one by one, we can't let iron ore get stuck in the neck of development.

Tomorrow I will visit Mr. Anthony and ask him to survey the wilderness again with flying skills to see where there is greater danger. We will directly send troops to eliminate them one by one. From now on, the wilderness will be our back garden, and we can do whatever we want. "

Dick said in a daze, "As for what?"

Feng Yu said: "That's right. As long as there is enough iron, I can build a bridge over the Lengshui River. When the time comes, the neat trains I mentioned will be connected between our dwarf kingdoms. Then the traffic between us will But it is convenient.

At that time, the food and salt here can be transported to the dwarf kingdom at a lower price.

At that time, all the dwarves will benefit, and can come to work in our camp during the day by train, and return to live in the Snowtop Mountains at night.

We can even dig large caves above the snow line of the Xueding Mountains as our strategic resource reserve base. "

"real or fake?"

Feng Yu said with a smile: "Before the steam engine started, none of you would believe it."

Dick patted his chest and said, "Since the Darren brothers have said so, then leave the prospecting to me. As long as we find traces of the mines, Mason is also in the wasteland, just ask him to investigate."

"Okay, that's it, Master Mason, don't be idle, I'll bring you more weapons, and you can also send more prospecting teams.

How about this, I will provide you with 500 more people's rations, and I will support your prospecting. At that time, the minerals will still be yours. Let's cooperate and make a fortune together. "

Like listening to the scriptures, Mason didn't know how to intervene.

Because of the record of defeating the one-eyed troll tribe with new weapons, Anthony is also very supportive of Feng Yuqing's plan to capture dangerous creatures on the wasteland.

The old man has recovered his skills now, and there is a one-eyed troll attacking the migration team. This kind of work of reconnaissance in the wilderness is his duty.

Besides, Feng Yu has already said that he doesn't even need to do anything, and he is handed over to the Cattail City Guards, who have the right to train soldiers, and only need the old man's investigation and settlement team to sit in charge.
