Chapter 300 Elemental Carbon

This was a pleasant surprise.

Yang Dongsheng randomly selected a piece of land, and immediately sighed - this mountain is really poor.

Unformed coal mines have very low iron content, and the stones are generally covered with a thick layer of soil, making it difficult to even mine stones.

The soil on the surface is also poor and poor. The soil lacks various minerals and humus for crop growth.

"Mr. Yang, we can't pass the front!" Liu Xinyu stopped the car.

Yang Dongsheng jumped out of the car. The road was still there, but it was potholed and bumpy. Yang Dongsheng's car had to support the bottom of the car and let the four wheels fly in the air.

The chassis of the truck is high enough, but there are a lot of things on the truck, including wine in glass bottles. Even if the truck does not overturn, the road is bumpy, and there is not much that can be pulled to the place.

"Xiaoli, is this the right way? Doesn't it mean that grandma's house is not deep in the mountains?"

"It should be here soon?" Zhou Li scratched her head.

"Didn't you come here during the Spring Festival?" Zhou Ying also got out of the car.

"During the Spring Festival, this side was bare, and it was clear at a glance, but now..." Zhou Li pointed to the surrounding cornfields.

"Let's go ahead and ask!"

Bypassing the cornfield, a small village loomed ahead.

Not far away, a man was working in a freshly harvested field on a hillside.

"Wait here!" Yang Dongsheng climbed up the hillside, "Master, ask me..."

"Second uncle!" Zhou Li screamed and ran over.

"Xiao Li, why are you here? Is something wrong with your mother?" The man threw down his hoe and asked worriedly.

"No, no! Is my mother ready to come?"

"So something happened to your father?"

"No, and no!"

"Then who did the accident..."

"They are all ready to come, why don't you want to order something good?"

……

In front of several dilapidated adobe houses, an old lady was sitting at the door, soaking the soles of her shoes in the sun, while an old man next to her was knocking on a stone with a dry cigarette in her mouth.

The second uncle came from a distance, and the old lady put down the soles of her shoes, "It's not yet noon, why are you back..."

"Mom, who do you see coming?"

"Grandma!" Zhou Li has already rushed forward.

"Oh, Xiaoli! You child, how old is a girl and you are still not in shape! How did you come here? Is your mother here?" The old lady asked Zhou Li's head while stroking her.

"Mother, don't patronize Xiaoli, Xiaoying is here too, this is Xiaoying's man!"

Yang Dongsheng took a step forward, "Grandma, I should have come to see you a long time ago, but I'm busy with work, so I left today!"

Say hello to grandpa again.

Entering the house, the inside of the adobe house was even dilapidated than the outside. There was a big gap in the wall opposite the door, which was blocked with plastic sheeting. I don’t know how long it has been doing this.

Zhou Hei didn't help his father-in-law at all.

The old lady took out three bowls, put several spoonfuls of sugar in each bowl, poured boiled water, Yang Dongsheng took a sip, it was sweet.

"Xiaoying, you just got pregnant, why are you still running around?"

"It's okay, we came here by car."

After a few meetings, the uncle, the third uncle, and the three sisters-in-law also came one after another. There were seven or eight young people standing outside the door looking into the room. The older ones were in their twenties, and the younger ones were only thirteen or fourteen years old.

"Dong Sheng, didn't you guys come here by car? Where's your car?" Uncle asked.

"At the head of the village, the road is too bad to drive!"

"How can I do that? Let's go!" The uncle greeted, and took the lead to go out with a shovel and a hoe.

Just as Yang Dongsheng was about to stand up, his grandmother held him back, "Let them go!"

More than half an hour later, Yang Dongsheng's car and truck drove to the adobe house with difficulty.

The uncle complained as soon as he entered the door, "Dongsheng, why did you buy so many things?"

Lifting the rainproof cloth, there are cigarettes, wine, canned food, ham, dried chicken, dried duck, brown sugar, toffee, cooking oil, as well as fabrics, shoe soles, needles, threads, buttons, which are full of half trucks.

"I didn't dare to buy more because I was afraid that the truck would not be able to go into the mountains!"

"Unload things!" Zhou Li jumped into the car and directed her cousin and cousin to move things.

"Oh, what a pity, what a pity!"

A box of wine was shaken and smashed, the box was soaked, exuding a strong aroma of wine.

Many people in the village heard the news and came to watch the fun. Yang Dongsheng saw many familiar faces among these people, all of whom his uncle had brought to Shunhe many times.

Yang Dongsheng somewhat understood the reason why his abilities covered this place.

"Which car is better, this car or Santana?" Someone asked, pointing to Yang Dongsheng's car, who thought he had seen the world before.

"This car can be exchanged for more than a dozen Santanas!" Liu Xinyu curled his lips in disdain.

Although Shannan County and Yunhe County belong to the two provinces of Jiangsu and Shandong, they live next to each other and are connected by mountains and rivers. They marry each other's children, and their dialects and customs are the same.

The concubines quickly cleaned up a table of food and wine, and invited the village party secretary and several respected elders in the village to accompany the guests. Yang Dongsheng soon drank without knowing who was involved.

When I woke up, the sky outside the window had just dawned, and the Pan family had vacated the best room for Yang Dongsheng and Zhou Ying, but there were no cracks.

Zhou Ying beside him was still fast asleep.

Zhou Ying's sleep has not been very good since she became pregnant, it's difficult for her to sleep so soundly.

Yang Dongsheng got up cautiously, while the grandfather outside the house had already gotten up to polish the stone.

Looking at Yang Dongsheng, he hurriedly put down the chisel in his hand, "Woke you up?"

"No, I know the bed better!" Yang Dongsheng looked at the rock, remembering that he was beating on it yesterday, and couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, are you going to repair the house?"

"Help the village next door make a millstone!"

The millstone already had a rough outline, and it was very simple. In terms of craftsmanship, it was far worse than the old man who carved stone lions for Yang Dongsheng.

Yang Dongsheng looked around, "I'm going to go around the mountain!"

"Be careful of slippery roads!"

Yang Dongsheng wanted to see how much scope his abilities covered. Such a large place couldn't have no resources at all.

Being backward is not without its advantages. Dozens of small blast furnaces in Shunhe are running day and night, and every breath smells like cinders, but the air here is fresh, and one breath is almost as fast as Shunhe.

Yang Dongsheng walked and investigated all the way.

He didn't pay attention at the beginning, but Yang Dongsheng soon discovered an unusual place - the soil here contains simple carbon.

It is not surprising that there is carbon in the soil, but whether it is tree roots, grass roots, or humus, the ingredients are all carbon compounds.

As far as Yang Dongsheng knows, apart from graphite, the only carbon in nature is...

Yang Dongsheng found the closest and largest carbon element to the ground, and dug on the spot with a wooden stick.

This carbon element is located in the field ridge, and besides carbon, it also has a trace amount of nitrogen.

After digging more than ten centimeters, a transparent object about the size of a little finger belly appeared in the pit with a yellow luster.
