Unlike the unlucky Neon Country players, Ye Han's luck is as good as ever.
Although this heavy rain trapped Ye Han and Su Xiaoqi in this cave, unable to go home and having to spend the night outside, what followed was a huge harvest.
mineral!
Ye Han continued to follow the cave and discovered minerals.
Many people like to use the phrase "having a mine at home" to describe a person who is rich.
But in this world, it is true that some people have mines at home.
Now Ye Han also has a mine.
Volcanic eruptions often bring a large amount of resources, the lowest of which is volcanic ash, but even volcanic ash has certain utilization value.
For example, it can be used for planting or as filling building materials.
After someone found the volcanic ash, they packed it in bags and sold it. The price of the same unit is even more expensive than flour!
Then there are the formation of various stone mines, such as basalt, granite, etc., which are good building materials and have a wide range of uses.
There are also sulfur ores, copper ores, iron ores, calcite, and even precious diamonds, etc.
Of course, everyone now knows that the preciousness of diamonds is just a scam. This equiaxed crystal composed of carbon elements is regarded as a symbol of love, and its value has skyrocketed.
This matter is very helpless. Even if you already know that the amount of diamonds in the world is actually very huge, and they can also be man-made, they are not worth the expensive price, but you still have to buy them when you get married.
Closer to home, the mineral Ye Han discovered now is iron ore!
This discovery made Ye Han want to dance for joy!
In the past, when he made a discovery, Ye Han would usually show his signature smile, and the audience would know that he had found something.
But this time, Ye Han couldn't help laughing, and it was quite exaggerated. The laughter echoed in the cave and even Su Xiaoqi was shocked.
Many viewers who were watching the live broadcast attentively and who had put themselves into the cave were also shocked.
What happened to Ye Han?
Only a few viewers who have seen iron mines understand why Ye Han is so happy.
You have found a mine, can you be unhappy?
This volcano is indeed a treasure!
"It's iron ore, Xiaoqi!"
"We found iron ore!"
Ye Han grabbed Su Xiaoqi's hand and said excitedly.
Only then did Su Xiaoqi react.
iron ore?!
Ye Han had said this when chatting with her before. If he could find iron ore, he would be able to smelt iron.
And if you have iron, you can use it to make a variety of tools and weapons, and your daily life will be much more convenient!
To give the simplest example, if iron is added to the arrowhead of a bow and arrow, the attack power will be greatly increased!
In the previous battle between Ye Han and Su Xiaoqi, Su Xiaoqi had used bows and arrows to deal with hyenas.
One arrow clearly hit the hyena's eye, but did not cause fatal damage. This was due to the material limitations of the arrow.
If it had been an iron-tipped arrow, the hyena would have knelt down on the spot.
Iron has so many uses. In modern people's lives, almost anything you take out will have parts made of iron.
The house we live in is also made of reinforced concrete, so it is stronger!
Although Su Xiaoqi didn't know iron ore, she immediately became excited and excited when she heard what Ye Han said.
"Really, boss, we discovered iron ore?"
"Is this it?"
Su Xiaoqi bent down and picked up a piece of iron ore in front of her and said.
Ye Han nodded, and then began to give Su Xiaoqi some popular science.
In fact, iron ore is just a general term.
Specifically, there are various categories!
For example, magnetite, hematite, limonite, siderite, etc.
"Magnetite has certain magnetism, a relatively fine structure, and poor reducibility."
"What we discovered is limonite, which has the best reducibility, so it is most suitable for smelting iron."
Ye Han is happy with his appearance.
Su Xiaoqi didn't understand much. It was obvious that she didn't take the chemistry class well.
Anyway, she knew that the iron ore they discovered was limonite, which was easier to smelt.
The audience began to discuss heatedly.
"Ye Han actually knows about iron ore. He is a jack-of-all-trades."
"Is it finally my turn? Hahaha, I am a worker in an iron smelting plant. I understand this!"
"Among the iron mines Ye Han mentioned, why is there no black iron ore?"
"What a mysterious iron mine. That was made up by the novelist. How could such an iron mine exist in reality?"
"Is Ye Han's next step going to be to start making iron?"
"This is not an easy task. Ye Han has almost no tools at hand. Even if this is the easiest limonite to smelt, it is still very difficult for Ye Han."
...........
The popularity of the live broadcast room skyrocketed.
Another big hot event broke out!
Ye Han discovered limonite!
The news quickly became a hot search topic, and audiences around the world knew about it.
Later, this day became known as the Thirty-two Days of Miracles.
In this thirty-second day, a lot of things happened.
There are two major events that can be regarded as milestones.
First, players from the two countries meet!
Second, contestants discovered minerals for the first time!
And in both cases, the benefits were taken away by the Kingdom of China, which makes people feel sad.
"Boss, how should we smelt iron ore?"
Su Xiaoqi looked at the piece of iron ore in her hand and asked.
This piece of iron ore is unattractive in appearance, irregular in shape and earthy yellow in color.
Those who didn't know better thought Su Xiaoqi was playing with Ollie.
"It's still early days. Ironmaking is not a simple matter."
"Whether it is refined here or mined and transported back to be refined, we have to consider carefully."
"The biggest problem is that it is too far away from where we live."
Ye Han has calmed down his excitement.
It is true that the discovery of iron ore is a great thing, but it also brings a lot of troubles.
Mining, smelting, and crafting are all troublesome and require a lot of time and energy.
Ye Han still has cashews to pick, palm trees to exploit, and a lot of areas to explore. Now there is one more thing to do, and that is iron smelting.
It’s not enough to divide him into three parts!
"Then don't worry, let's take our time!"
"Go step by step. Eat your meal one bite at a time. Don't get exhausted."
Su Xiaoqi said very considerately.
After arriving on the island, Ye Han hardly had much time to spare. She saw it in her eyes, but felt very distressed in her heart.
Although Ye Han is lucky and often has rich harvests, he also does a lot of work!
"I know you feel sorry for me."
Ye Han smiled and scratched Su Xiaoqi's nose.
"The amount of limonite is actually not large. There should be a lot more underground, but it will be difficult for us to excavate them all."
"Ignore it for now. Let's go back. The further we go, the worse the air will be and the higher the temperature will be. Let's go out first to see if the rain has stopped."
"It's already past four in the afternoon, it's time to think about what to eat."
Ye Han said, pulling Su Xiaoqi back.
The rain outside has become lighter, but it is still raining, and it is expected to continue until at least tomorrow.
In desperation, Ye Han decided to go to the cashew tree in the rain and bring back some food.
