My Empire War Game

Chapter 149: mineral

Although Hathaway has mastered the magic expertise of casting spells, but some spells bring effects that cannot be achieved by casting spells.

For example, the oil used in the greasy technique, the rose essential oil carefully formulated by Hathaway has a much better effect than the material-free effect. Not only is it extremely creamy, it has an attractive floral fragrance, and it is also very moisturizing.

Several boxes of this rose oil are consumed every day, and Kriss also praises this rose oil.

During this period of time, Hathaway and Chrissy’s strengths have both grown rapidly, and both have learned a lot of spells. Of course, Chrissy is inferior to Shanghai Seville on this point, after all, they are orthodox wizards. But she also has her own strengths, such as the flexibility of the devil's body, and her otherworldly art of binding, which makes Su Lun often addicted to it.

......

After smoothing out the troll tribe, Zhenbei Fort returned to peace again. Now he was thinking about how to conquer the group of drow elves. At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the door.

"Your lord, caravan manager Gene, please see me." A servant said respectfully.

"Bring him here." Su Lun said after signing a document.

"Please wait a moment." The servant bowed respectfully and saluted, and after a few steps back, he turned and left. Soon Gene brought in a man in his thirties. The man was wearing Zhenbeipu's custom-made clothes. His body was not strong, his face looked a little old, and many calluses could be seen on his left hand. Only sleeves are empty.

"Your honorable lord, your servant Gene greets you." Caravan manager Gene respectfully saluted.

"Okay, Genn, don't be so polite." Su Lun pointed to the seat next to him and motioned for the two to sit down. After the two were seated, Su Lun asked, "Jean, do you have anything to report this time?"

"Your Lord, this is Marshall, this time he has something important to report to you." Genn pointed to the man next to him and said. "He is a slave I bought from Carter City this time."

Suren glanced at Marshall, then motioned to him to speak.

"My... Honorable lord, I am a prospector, and I found that there are mineral veins near your territory." Marshall was a little nervous at first, but soon became excited and his eyes became bright.

"Minerals?" Su Lun, who was looking through the documents, paused, "What minerals?"

"Coal mine! I found a coal mine in your territory, and the quality is not bad." Marshall said excitedly.

"You found a coal mine? Where is it?" Su Lun immediately asked, a coal mine is very important to the territory. Although charcoal can be used for ironmaking, he will naturally not let go of better coal, and compared to Charcoal and coal are cheaper and more versatile.

"I estimated the approximate range, and the specific location needs further exploration..." Marshall said blushing.

Listening to his narration, Su Lun also learned about the discovery of the coal mine. He had to admit that Marshall was a caring person. As a prospector, he was young, promising and experienced. His monthly salary was also very good, but later in the mine. An accident caused him to become disabled. After this accident, he was directly dismissed from the mine. He was not even paid for the month's wages. After losing his job and becoming disabled, he felt that his future was gloomy.

He used alcohol to dissipate his sorrows every day, and even got into the habit of gambling. The end result was that his wife divorced him. He became impoverished and owed a debt to the casino. In the end, he was unable to pay the money and was sold as a slave .

After coming to Zhenbei Fort, under the pressure of survival, he had to go to work if he wanted to eat and eat, and when he heard that he had the opportunity to regain his freedom and get rewards such as land and house, he immediately cheered him up. .

In order to get rid of slavery status as soon as possible and own his own house and fields, Marshall began to use his best skills to earn points. In a small chat, he heard about the ogre forging weapons, which made him notice a detail, the ogre used coal to forge weapons.

Since there is coal, there must be a coal mine nearby, and then Marshall succeeded in determining the approximate location of the coal mine based on these few clues.

After receiving the news of the coal mine, Su Lun also looked surprised and directly promised: "Marshall, if it is determined that the coal mine there is real, then I can be the master to forgive you as a slave, and reward you with housing and 20 acres of fertile land, and I will hire you to be the mineral consultant in the town of North Fort."

"Thank you for your kindness, honorable lord, I am willing to work for you and help you find underground minerals." Marshall said excitedly.

Then Su Lun arranged for some people to follow Marshall to explore the coal mine. Two days later, the news came that they found the mineral. The good news is that ~www.ltnovel.com~ this coal mine is actually an open-pit mine. Come to minimize the difficulty of mining.

Marshall sent back samples from the mine, and Su Lun found that the quality of these coal mines can only be said to be average, and they are not suitable for forging weapons. If you want to use them, you need to process them to make coal into coke.

The method of making coke from coal is very similar to the method of making charcoal. It is also cut off from air and dry distillation. This is not difficult for Zhenbeibao, which already has rich craftsmanship for making coal. It is made directly according to the charcoal making process.

Then, coke is used to make steel. The temperature that coke can provide far exceeds that of coal and charcoal. Originally, it took several days for iron-making blast furnaces to melt the ore. Now that coke is used, the world is almost the same in one day.

In order to mine coal, Suren deliberately led his troops to the surrounding wilderness to capture kobolds. As one of the best miners in the wilderness, second only to the gray dwarves, these kobolds are the main force in mining, fortunately the kobolds are wilderness tribes. The number was still good, and Su Lun easily captured more than two hundred kobold slaves.

First throw these slaves to the instructors who are proficient in training for training, and then take the barbarian warriors to **** the prisoners after a simple training.

Su Lun caught a total of three batches, about five to six hundred people, and all of them were sent to the coal mine for mining.

Originally, Sulun was still a little worried about the heating of slaves and refugees. Charcoal was expensive and the output was limited. Some of the charcoal distributed to each family was not made. However, now that coal is available, the demand for charcoal will be greatly reduced.

In addition to large pieces of coal, there are many cinders in coal mining. These are just used to make briquettes. The furnaces specially used to burn briquettes are not difficult to make. Su Lun intends to make all of them directly. As for gas poisoning, Just install a vent pipe.
