Zhen Shisan turned back with a wry smile and said, "My lord, I already know, but thank you for telling me frankly, my lord."
"Do things with your heart, this time will not be very long, at most three to five years, as long as you are willing, you can return to the Central Plains."
"Thank you sir."
After Zhen Shisan left, Bian Ji who was next to him asked, "My lord, why did you tell Zhen Shisan about this? My lord is not afraid that Zhen Shisan will have a different heart?"
Lin Bei smiled and said: "Zhen Shisan is a smart person. Instead of letting him find out about this, it is better to tell him directly. This will save a lot of hands and feet. I will tell you frankly that he will consider our relationship with Zhen Shi and will do everything right. Be careful, lest you offend me."
"Adults can see people's hearts, but students can't."
The production rate of refined salt is not high, and [-] catties of refined salt can eventually produce about [-] catties of refined salt. The color of this refined salt is light white. Lin Bei tasted it a little, and felt that it was not much different from the salt of later generations. After Zhen Shisan watched the whole process , immediately wrote a letter to Zhen Ping, and then handed it over to An Zhongzhi generously. Send the letter away.
In the letter, Zhen Shisan only mentioned the output of refined salt in the salt field, but naturally did not mention the method. Three thousand catties of refined salt in half a month is not low, and it is already quite high. In addition, Lin Bei is also planning to expand the salt field again. Strive to achieve the output of [-] catties of refined salt in half a month and [-] catties of refined salt in a month.
If [-] catties of refined salt were sold, it would be enough to make a family a wealthy family, because refined salt is much more expensive than grain. Lin Bei thought that Zhen Ping would definitely come here after hearing the news.
Afterwards, Lin Bei sent people to build boats. These days, it is not easy to build big boats, but small boats are quite easy. The fire of the blacksmith in the city has never been extinguished for a day. Iron objects were melted and turned into iron sheets to facilitate shipbuilding.
Seeing that everything was moving in a good direction, An Zhongzhi came to report that there was not enough iron and craftsmen needed to go out to find iron ore.
ps: ps: The second update, it seems that I have a cold again...
Chapter 195 Lin Zhonghe
"Iron mine..." Thinking of this, Lin Bei became a little worried.
There used to be two small iron mines in Rinan and Jiuzhen counties, but they have already been mined. Now there is no iron ore, so they need to be transported from the Central Plains, but that was when the government was there. Now Linbei Occupying these two places, the imperial court will naturally not transport them again.
Lin Bei knew that there were many iron mines in the sea, and each of these iron ore veins was enough to last Wanghai City for hundreds of years, but could Lin Bei mine it?The answer is naturally no. Before there is a sufficient level of technology, the rich minerals in the sea can only be seen but cannot be touched.
Not in the sea, then there is only another direction, which is behind the Changshan Mountains.
Behind this is the three countries of Burma, Thailand and Vietnam in the future. There must be iron ore, and no one will develop it yet. What Wanghai City has to do seems to be very simple. Find someone to explore the veins, and then mine the ore. Simple, it's really simple to say, but it's really not easy to do.
Behind the Changshan mountain range is a dense forest with countless beasts, snakes and insects. It is obviously not easy to enter the inside to explore the mineral veins. If Lin Bei has the talent in this area, it is okay. He didn't know anything about it, and he couldn't see where there was iron ore.
So here comes the problem, only craftsmen who are proficient in this field can go into the mountain to find the ore veins, but there are infinite dangers in the forest, if they are not careful, those people will be buried in the dense forest, and they will never come back.
"Why don't I go with those craftsmen, how about protecting those craftsmen?" Lin Bei said that it is the safest way to go with him, and the craftsmen will not be in danger of their lives.
Hearing this proposal, both Bian Ji and An Zhongzhi shook their heads. Even though they knew that Lin Bei was powerful in the forest, they didn't want Lin Bei to leave.Why, because a country cannot be without a master for a day, Lin Bei is a symbol of the spirit of Wanghai City, how can he leave Wanghai City casually, besides, there are many things in the city that require Lin Bei to make up his mind.Once Lin Bei leaves, these things may be shelved. Finding mineral veins is not something that can be done in a day or two. Sometimes it even takes several years of work. Let Lin Bei leave for several years?How can this be.
"This doesn't work and that doesn't work, so what do you say?" Lin Bei was a little annoyed.
"My lord, this matter has to be discussed in the long term. The search for the mine vein has been going on for a long time, and my lord must not leave. How about sending some soldiers to escort?"
"Changshan is densely forested, and there are as many beasts, snakes and insects as a cow's hair. It is difficult for the soldiers to protect themselves, let alone protect those craftsmen."
"How about sending a few long-nosed beasts to follow the soldiers. The long-nosed beasts are huge, and they are also beasts of the jungle. After being tamed, they can now be used by me."
Lin Bei thought for a while.Reluctantly, he could accept this proposal. A tamed elephant can understand simple language.They themselves are not afraid of tigers and leopards. Walking in dense forests is also considered a good strategy. Of course, it is definitely much worse than Lin Bei himself.
"Okay, that's it. Zhongzhi, you immediately send elite sergeants, ready to go, and prepare everything they need, and then let them set off on another day."
An Zhongzhi nodded to express his understanding.
Then Bian Ji said again: "My lord. Although the use of the long-nosed beast here is a bit overkill, it is still a good idea. Didn't your lord mention that you are going to open up the passage between the body and the poison? Horses and cows are not allowed in the dense forest. Okay, only the long-nosed beasts are capable of this task, should we organize some soldiers to capture the long-nosed beasts? They should be domesticated so as not to waste the time.”
Lin Bei nodded, Bian Ji's idea is good. Elephants are definitely not as good as camels in arid places, but in the forest elephants beat camels by dozens of streets. Nowadays, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam are all dense forests, and the proboscis is indeed It is very useful, and it is safe to catch some and tame them.
"Then I have to go into the mountains this time." Lin Bei said.
To find an elephant, Lin Bei is obviously the most suitable, and Lin Bei himself moves fast, Bian Ji and An Zhongzhi can only nod in the end, but Bian Ji still told Lin Bei: "My lord, my city is getting more and more prosperous now, my lord! Don't stay in the forest for a long time, just go back in one day."
"One day? Nonsense, where can I find one day."
"That's three days at most. Recently, the craftsmen outside the city seem to have made some progress on the principle of steam. My lord has to hurry back."
Lin Bei could only nod his head. He was paying attention to this matter every day, so he also knew the progress of the craftsmen. The enthusiasm of these craftsmen has never faded, and they have produced more than a dozen small carriages, which can run on steam. , but the carriage for carrying people has not yet been made. After all, the craftsmen also want to make it perfect, and they don't want the final carriage to be too big.
After repeatedly promising that he would come back within three days at the most, Bian Ji stepped aside, Lin Bei didn't stay any longer, and went straight out of the city lord's mansion, leaving Bian Ji and An Zhong staring at Lin Bei's cheerful back speechlessly for a long time: "My lord, you have such a temper. ...It's really a bit off..."
If Lin Bei heard this comment, he would definitely laugh out loud. Is he still out of character?It's just that Lin Bei was bored with being bored in the city for several days. Now that he can finally go out for a walk, it's no wonder he's unhappy. It's happiness, not escape.
Lin Bei went straight to Changshan, passing the logging land, Lin Bei first startled the snakes and insects around him again, and finally went up the mountain.
"Ah, this kind of air smells really comfortable..." Lin Bei sighed deeply. Although the city is full of fruit trees, it is always different from the original forest. In addition, Lin Bei needs to deal with things every day. Lin Bei was so busy that he didn't have time to enjoy the scenery.
The Changshan mountain range of 3000 meters is similar to a small ditch to Lin Bei, and he quickly climbed to the top. Lin Bei found a big tree and climbed up to watch that side.
The terrain here in the Changshan Mountains is quite high. When Lin Bei looked over there, he saw lush trees like a field, slowly descending and extending forward, and there was no end in sight. Occasionally, there were places where the trees were sparse. , Linbei can see the reflection of the water, presumably formed lakes or rivers, dotted in between, green and full of vitality.
Lin Bei was in a happy mood, slid down the big tree, and walked towards a place with a reflective light in the distance. After all, the closer to the water source, the more animals there would be. Lin Bei already knew this.
Monkeys sing and birds startle, snakes and insects run away, tigers and leopards lie low, Lin Bei is like the king of the forest.There were no ferocious beasts that dared to take the lead, and they had already avoided it far away. Along the way, Linbei was unimpeded, and soon came to the reflective place, which was a river.
The river is very wide.It was about three feet wide, with wavy hair and scales. A group of deer were drinking water on the opposite bank. Lin Bei's arrival made the deer agitated, but they didn't run away, but they were more careful.
Just as Lin Bei was about to say that he was in a good mood, suddenly, Lin Bei heard a loud cry, which sounded a bit like a cow.But it was much louder than the voice of a cow. Lin Bei turned his head to follow the sound, and saw a big guy rushing out of the reeds by the river and bumping towards Lin Bei.
Lin Bei narrowed his eyes, and when he saw this big guy, he already recognized what kind of beast it was, it was a rhinoceros.
In modern times, Lin Bei has never seen a rhino with his own eyes.But it does not prevent him from knowing it. Presumably there is no modern person who does not know rhinoceros.This rhino should be more than five meters long and two and a half meters high. At this moment, it lowered its head and rushed towards Lin Bei. The horn on the top seemed to be shining. This momentum was like a tank's charge, and Lin Bei was a little horrified.
"Are all rhinos so violent now?" Lin Beixin thought to himself.Quickly swung his body and avoided it. While avoiding it, Lin Bei found that there was actually a rhinoceros in the reeds, but this rhinoceros did not have a single horn.Instead, her belly was bulging, and she should be pregnant, Lin Bei suddenly realized.
Obviously, it was a male rhino that attacked Lin Bei, and it was not violent by nature. The reason why it attacked was because it sensed Lin Bei's threat. In order to protect his wife and unborn child, the rhino's father had to take the initiative to challenge.
For this situation, Lin Bei's tolerance is quite high, so he immediately forgave Rhino's father's attack, and then began to retreat, showing that he did not have any malicious intentions.
Seeing Lin Bei retreating, the male rhino didn't attack again, but still yelled, with a high-pitched cry, panting with his thick nose, in this way to show his strength and intimidate Lin Bei. .
Lin Bei retreated again, several hundred meters away, before the rhino regained its composure and returned to the reeds. However, Lin Bei could see that it was still vigilant about its surroundings and did not relax at all. If the enemy threatens safety, this tank will rush out again.
"There are rhinos here?" Lin Bei had time to be surprised. He knew the rhinos but didn't know the origin of the rhinos. It seems to be in Africa, but since the rhinos do exist, it means that there are real rhinos here, and they are not adulterated at all.
The confrontation between the rhinoceros and Lin Bei just now did not affect the deer group drinking water at all. These deer seemed very calm, but Lin Bei noticed that their legs were tense. It is estimated that as long as there is something wrong, these deer will run away.
"I'm afraid a few of these deer are going to die." Lin Bei said suddenly, because he saw a few pieces of dead wood moving in the river, very slightly but quickly, Lin Bei could see through the water the long Long body, this is a group of crocodiles, there are at least five crocodiles.
Seeing a new species, Lin Bei was not surprised, because there were indeed crocodiles near the Mekong River, known as Thai crocodiles, which were hunted and killed in the modern 90/[-]s, and were later considered extinct, but in this era Obviously, crocodiles are much more ferocious than humans, and humans may only become their food. The key is to see how they feel.
These five crocodiles are all quite long. There is a leader in the group of crocodiles, and the leader is the biggest and most ferocious. The largest and longest crocodile is eight meters long, and the others are all around six meters long. On the ground, there are quite a group of terrifying and ferocious beasts. There is almost no sound in the water, and the deer can't feel it at all.
Just when Lin Bei thought that the deer herd was going to be murdered, several birds flew out from the reeds of the rhino just now, chirping and chirping. When the deer herd heard this sound, they turned their heads and ran away, and disappeared in an instant .
The male rhino also came out from the reeds and began to roar into the water, as if to charge at any time. Lin Bei saw the five crocodiles sinking into the water, and the shadow receded, but he left here.
