Ming Dynasty: Teaching The Prince Dragon-Slaying Skills At The Beginning

Chapter 879: Rich Mineral Resources, Qi King Zhu Shu’S Construction Of The Mainland [Please Subscrib

When Jin King Zhu Fan first landed in North America, Qi King Zhu Bo also landed in Australia, Oceania, two months earlier, at the end of December in the first year of Shengping.

Because King Zhu Shu of Qi did not spend nearly two months like King Zhu Fan of Jin, specifically looking for a relatively most suitable place to found the country.

Instead, after seeing the Australian mainland, they landed directly on the shore, and then began to build a coastal port military base city in the coastal area of ​​the Australian mainland.

Prepare to build a place for yourself and others to stay as quickly as possible.

After all, I have been floating on the sea, and I feel uneasy after all.

This is not troublesome at all, and Qi King Zhu Bo himself can be said to have abundant meridians.

After all, as early as the fourth year of the Ming Dynasty when he was the governor of the state, he was ordered to recreate the Haizhou City New District.

Later, when he conquered Japan in the east, he also built several military strongholds.

As the saying goes, once for life, twice for familiarity, now it can be called the third time.

So after observing the general terrain around him, Qi King Zhu Zun and a group of students from Wanminyu College soon discussed a general construction plan for a coastal port military base city.

Then, they first used local materials and cut down all the trees in the coastal port to build wooden houses for everyone to live in.

Then they sent marines to escort a group of Wanminyu Academy students who knew the mountains and rivers, to explore and find iron ore, coal mines, limestone mines, gypsum mines, etc.

This process, King Zhu Shu of Qi, felt that it would take a lot of time.

Like when I was in the Central Plains, if I wanted to find and identify a mineral vein, it would take at least ten days or half a month, and at most it would take a year and a half.

After all, the iron ore in the Central Plains has always been a rare resource. It was only after the annexation of Korea a few years ago that they realized that in some places, iron ore was really everywhere.

But even so, not long after he went out to search for mineral deposits, students from Wanminyu Academy came back with excitement and reported that they had discovered a large iron ore.

King Zhu Su of Qi raised his head and looked at the sky. It had only been about half a day since he sent these people out to search for mineral veins, right?!!

Even if the iron ore here is as ubiquitous as the iron ore in Korea, it can't be so ubiquitous, right?!!

At any rate, it took two or three days to determine the location of the iron mine in Goryeo.

He found the location of the mineral vein in less than a day. Isn't this really deceiving him?!!

"Did you really discover a large iron ore?!!"

Qi King Zhu Shu looked at the students from Wan067 Public Opinion College who were reporting in front of him with a suspicious look on his face, and he didn't quite believe it.

"real!"

“And it’s a very large iron ore of excellent quality!”

"Absolutely not inferior to the iron ore found in Ming Dynasty and Korea!"

The student from Wanminyu College in charge of the mine survey said with excitement.

Speaking of which, they originally thought that it would take a lot of time to find mineral veins such as iron ore.

As a result, I never expected that after just wandering around for such a short time, I found an iron mine.

And according to those very experienced old men Xiangyu, the iron ore is not only of good quality, but also of large scale, and the iron ore storage capacity will definitely not be less than 100 million kilograms.

Sure enough, His Highness King Zhu Su of Qi did not lie. He said he would take them to a good place to live, and he really took them to this good place!

Looking at the unconvinced Qi King Zhu Zun, the student from Wanminyu Academy said directly:

"Your Highness, please follow me!"

Seeing this, Qi King Zhu Su did not hesitate and followed directly with hundreds of marines and soldiers. He also wanted to see how good the iron ore was that the students of Wanminyu Academy said.

Soon, Qi King Zhu Su followed the previous Wanminyu College student to the place where the iron ore was discovered.

The other students from the Wan Min Yu Academy who had come here before, as well as some fortune tellers who were proficient in Feng Shui and stargazing, were pulling on the ground.

After seeing the arrival of King Zhu Zhu of Qi, these fortune tellers who were proficient in Feng Shui and stargazing immediately held a handful of ores, walked to Zhu Zun and said excitedly:

"Your Highness, it's done, it's done, we've done it!"

King Zhu Shu of Qi didn't know much about iron ore, so he couldn't help but ask:

“Um, the iron ore here is very good?!”

One of them, a strong fortune teller in his thirties or forties, nodded wildly and said:

"good, very good, excellent!"

"The ores here are not so much stones as they are pieces of iron!"

They hammered and dug here for a long time, and the iron content of every piece of ore they found was basically about 50% to 70%.

what does that mean?!!

This means that in a ten kilogram piece of iron ore, at least five to seven kilograms are iron!!!

With such a terrifying iron content, rather than saying that they are stones containing iron, it is better to say that they are iron containing stones!!!

And this is the result of their casual digging, and they did not seriously search for the best part of this iron ore.

what does that mean?!!

This means that the lowest quality iron ore here is the kind of fine iron ore that can be directly thrown into the furnace for smelting after proper crushing and screening!!!

After the iron ore is mined in the Ming Dynasty (excluding the newly added North Korean province in the past few years), it still needs to be carefully selected.

The inferior iron ore that is then thrown into the furnace and smelted twice or multiple times is completely different!

Most of the iron ores in Daming are poor ores, and the iron content of most iron ores is around 30% to 50%.

Of course, there are also iron ores with an iron content of less than 30%, but generally iron ores with an iron content of less than 30% have little mining value.

Therefore, after the iron ore in Daming was mined, it took a lot of time and energy to select iron ore with a relatively high iron content.

Because only iron ore with a relatively high iron content is selected first, more molten iron will be smelted later, and the smelting speed will be faster.

Otherwise, if iron ore with a relatively low iron content is directly used for smelting, it will have to be smelted multiple times before a batch of qualified molten iron can be cold-smelted.

For example, if it is a poor iron ore with an iron content of about 30%.

Then you have to go through the first round of smelting, sinter or pellets, to see if its iron content reaches more than 60%.

If it does not reach more than 60%, then it will have to go through a second round of roasting or sintering high-temperature treatment, and then see if its iron content reaches more than 60%.

Only high-quality iron ore with an iron content of more than 60% can be officially put into the blast furnace for smelting.

After such smelting, one hundred kilograms of iron ore with an iron content of 30% can finally be produced as Zhushizhuang iron ore with an iron content of 60%, which is considered good.

Therefore, compared with Daming's inferior iron ore, which has an iron content of about 30% to 50% and needs to be roasted or sintered at high temperatures two or more times before being officially smelted.

The quality of the iron ore here is incredible.

Leaving aside other aspects, the fact that it can be directly thrown into the blast furnace for smelting without prior screening is enough to save a lot of manpower, material resources and other resources.

Just as the strong fortune teller finished speaking, another old fortune teller who looked to be about fifty or sixty years old also said impatiently:

"In addition, according to our observations, this iron ore vein covers at least hundreds of miles in radius, and the storage capacity is at least hundreds of millions of pieces!"

"The most important thing is that this iron ore vein is still an open-pit mine!"

"Oh my God, I have never seen such good iron ore in my life!"

Let’s take the Ming Dynasty as an example. Most of the iron mines in the Ming Dynasty are underground veins.

If you want to mine, you must spend a lot of manpower and material resources to dig mines.

And underground mines are extremely dangerous, and you may encounter unexpected events such as landslides if you are not careful.

Coupled with the low quality of the iron ore just mentioned, it is really not easy to smelt a good furnace of molten iron in the Ming Dynasty.

But after the Ming Dynasty annexed Korea, they discovered that the low quality of iron ore was unique to the Ming Dynasty.

The quality of iron ore in other places is much better than the quality of iron ore in Daming.

And when they came to Australia in Oceania, they discovered the iron ore in other places.

Not only is the quality much better than Daming's iron ore, but the mining difficulty is also much lower than Daming's iron ore.

For a time, all the fortune tellers couldn't help but doubt whether it was correct to say that Zhongyuan was the center of the world (bhbg).

After all, after the Ming Dynasty, they found that, let alone other aspects, in terms of iron ore, the Central Plains was really not as good as other places.

After listening to the words of a group of wise men and women, King Zhu Bo of Qi quickly realized the value of the iron mine under his feet!

Outstanding quality and extremely easy to mine!

To put it bluntly, now build a steel smelting department directly next to the iron mine, and then arrange for people to directly pick up the iron ore on the ground and throw it into the blast furnace, and then smelting molten iron can be produced immediately.

After that, iron farm tools can be cast to reclaim wasteland; hundreds of forged steel weapons can be cast to defend against local natives and wild beasts; steel bars and other construction materials can be cast to build cities and so on.

It can be said that if a country wants to prosper, iron ore is essential.

The better the quality and the lower the difficulty of mining the iron ore, the greater its impact on a country!

If the iron mine under their feet is utilized well, his feudal kingdom can avoid at least twenty years of detours and be built quickly.

Thinking of this, Wang Zhubo couldn't help laughing and said:

"Hahaha, destiny is indeed with me!"

After all, if the destiny was not in his hands, how could the people under his command quickly find such a high-quality iron mine with extremely high quality, extremely low mining difficulty, and huge storage capacity!

However, it is hard to say whether the destiny lies with Qi King Zhu Shu, but it is true that Qi King Zhu Shu is lucky.

Australia is very rich in mineral resources. The mineral deposits within its territory mainly include coal, iron, lead, zinc, copper, nickel, bauxite, gold, etc.

Among them, coal, iron and bauxite are Australia's three most important mineral resources, and its export volume has always ranked among the top in the world.

In Yan Changqing's previous life, he was the world's largest coal exporter, the second largest iron ore exporter, and the third largest bauxite exporter.

In addition, it is the third largest gold exporter in the West after America and South Africa.

About four-fifths of the mineral products produced in Australia every year are exported to other countries, and the export value accounts for more than a quarter of the country's total export value. It can be said to be a country that is truly "sitting on a mine cart".

As for the three major minerals of coal, iron and bauxite, coal is mainly distributed in the eastern coastal areas, iron is mainly distributed in the western region, and bauxite is mainly distributed in the north and southeast.

And Qi King Zhu Bo and others came from the south of Ming Dynasty

Going down to Australia, we happened to land on the west side of Australia, so we quickly found the iron ore vein as soon as we landed.

After being happy, Qi King Zhu Shu immediately ordered:

"Immediately build a steel smelting department on the site, and I will arrange for manpower to come here for smelting later.'

"Then you go on to look for other mineral deposits, with coal mines first!"

In addition to iron ore, coal mine is also a very important resource.

After all, coal mines can not only be used to smelt steel, but can also be used to make briquettes for burning fires and heating, etc.

If you want to develop rapidly, coal mines are also an indispensable resource.

After hearing the order from King Zhu Cao of Qi, all the people, college students and Kanbao fortune-tellers all nodded in response:

"Yes, Your Highness!"

After that, rich coal resources were quickly found in the eastern coastal areas of Australia.

But one is in the east and the other is in the west. If you take the land route, the field division will not change.

After all, Qi King Zhu Bo and his party do not occupy the central part of the Australian continent now, because Qi King Zhu Bo's initial idea was to gradually develop from the coastal areas to the central part of the Australian continent.

Fortunately, they have a large number of naval ships, so it is not too big to load all the coal mines on naval ships in the eastern part of the Australian mainland and then transport them to the Steel Smelting Department in the western part of the Australian mainland.

trouble.

In addition to mineral resources such as coal and iron, limestone deposits and gypsum deposits required for making concrete cement have also been discovered one after another.

With abundant mineral resources, the construction of Qi King Zhu Su's coastal port military base city is also advancing rapidly.

Of course, during this process, we also discovered some Honda kings from Australia.

However, compared with the millions to 20 million indigenous Indians in North America, the indigenous population in Australia is small after all, only about one million people.

For example, King Zhu Shu of Qi and his entourage had a large number of people.

Moreover, these millions of indigenous people were scattered into about 500 tribes, which made them even more vulnerable to Qi King Zhu Bo.

And Qi King Zhu Shu didn't have any bad intentions towards the millions of natives, or to be more precise, he had no time to deal with the millions of natives.

For him, as long as these millions of natives do not come to stir up trouble, affect and delay his construction, then he is too lazy to trouble those millions of natives.

After all, the main area of ​​​​Australia is about 7.7 million square kilometers. If you throw a million indigenous people into such a large place, they won't even be able to wash away a splash.

It is almost impossible for them, who have just arrived in Australia, to find the millions of indigenous people who have lived here for generations and kill them all when they are unfamiliar with the place.

things.

Of course, if these natives take the initiative to come to them for trouble, he will not show any mercy. After all, they are also very short of construction labor nowadays.

As for the friendly natives who are willing to communicate with them, Qi King Zhu Bo is also willing to spend some gadgets that are not very valuable to them to hire these native helpers.

They work.

Of course, it was not valuable to Qi King Zhu Bo and others, but to these natives it was like a treasure.

Again, in the current era, there are only two and a half continents that can truly be called developed countries, societies, and civilizations: Asia and Europe, and one Africa each.

No.

The rest of North America, South America, Oceania, Australia, and Antarctica are all still in the social stage of the Yuanshi tribe.

Therefore, when faced with the advanced and desi racial civilization of King Zhu Bo of Qi, these indigenous people from Australia were also absorbed and assimilated by King Zhu Bo of Qi at a very fast speed.

Under such circumstances, Aolu was also built at a relatively fast speed by Qi King Zhu Shu.

The prototype of a feudal country also gradually appeared.
