Chapter 1073 Iron Ore
Li Zhiyao said in surprise, "What is that?"

Xia Houyu immediately thought of what his master had told him.

Immediately go over and pick up the stone.It hit the big rock again.

Then came a series of sparks.

Li Zhiyao also hit it with a stone, sparks were also sparked.Huzi looked at it and thought it was quite amusing, so he wanted to hit it with the stone.

As soon as the stone reached his hand, he suddenly said, "Why is this stone so heavy?"

This question instantly lit up their thoughts.Several people remembered Qiu Laifu's explanation at the same time.The so-called treasure here may be, probably this stone.

Huzi immediately said, "Let's pick up more rocks from this mountain and go back."

Qiu Laifu looked at the pile of stones in front of him.He looked up at the few people standing in front of him.

"Is this the result that some of you brought back to me?"

……

Before everyone could answer, Xiaohong rushed forward, picked up a stone and put it in a large earthen bowl, then activated the fire power and started to burn the stone.

Because Xiaohong turned on too much firepower, the stone burned red all of a sudden, and kept spraying sparks.Not long after, the big stone was only about the size of a glutinous rice ball, and it no longer spewed sparks.

Xiaohong finished work and put out the fire, and gradually the stones that were bigger than the glutinous rice balls cooled down.

Xiaohong came to Qiu Laifu with a stone to flatter her.

"Master, look at what this is?"

Qiu Laifu weighed it in his hand, "It should be iron."

Xia Houyu took the stone from Qiu Laifu's hand, weighed it as well, then sniffed it with his nose, and said with certainty, "This is iron. The iron content in the stone here is really high."

Several people passed on the small piece of iron.After confirming that this is Tie Hou, they all looked at Qiu Laifu.

The mountains there have iron mines.This is exciting news, but also a headache.

Find out who poisoned the village.It is even more necessary to find a way to resettle the people in that village.Because once iron ore is to be mined there, that part of the village will definitely be requisitioned or sealed up.

Headache!What a headache!Qiu Laifu couldn't decide this matter on his own, he had to report to Li Xuanran.Let him, the king of a country, worry about this iron mine.

Qiu Laifu looked at Xia Houyu and said, "You should lead someone to continue to track down that salesman. I hope we won't fail this time."

On the one hand, Qiu Laifu hoped that Li Xuanran could send someone to take over the government office as soon as possible, and on the other hand, he also hoped that this matter would be handled in the most appropriate way.

Qiu Laifu immediately wrote a letter to Li Xuanran.Still let Lan Rui send it over.When Li Zhiyao heard that he was going to send a letter to the palace, he also brought one.

Li Xuanran was furious after receiving the letter.For the throne under his seat, he really doesn't like it very much.

If he hadn't been worried that he would die in an ugly way, he would not have tried his best to win this position.

But now that I have sat in this position, there are others wanting it in every possible way.

Why?Why are these people unwilling to live a good life and insist on tossing and tossing.

Of the direct descendants of the royal family, only he is the most qualified.And who is that person hiding in the dark and jumping up and down?
Is it because I am too kind?Did giving them such a generous life make them think more than they should have?

Li Xuanran was very angry.He really wanted to yell, "Whoever wants this chair, whoever wants to take it. I don't care about it."

This kind of thinking is particularly serious every time he receives a letter from Qiu Laifu.

Thinking of Qiu Laifu roaming freely among the mountains and rivers, but he was trapped in this gorgeous cage.Every day, for the sake of people all over the country, he desperately reviewed the memorials.This is really not a personal life.

Even though Li Xuanran had many grievances, at most he could just drink some wine, and then bury himself in the bed and cry. Who can he tell about his psychological shadows, and who is willing to listen?
Qiu Laifu's life was something he envied, envied and hated, and it was shown in the reply letter he gave in the end.Now that iron ore has been discovered, it is natural to mine it.

All matters were left to Qiu Laifu, and it was up to Qiu Laifu to figure out the deployment of manpower.What's more, it was up to Qiu Laifu to decide whether the mined iron ore should be made into weapons or agricultural tools.In addition, he also asked Qiu Laifu to send two people to protect his son, or to choose two people close to his son.

Qiu Laifu was very resentful when he heard this, what kind of ghost emperor is this?What is the decree of God's son?Where is there such a pot thrower?

This was clearly his business, but now it was left to her.

Thinking of his happy life, being squeezed by that one in the palace again, Qiu Laifu was very angry.

But to be angry, things still have to be done.

Qiu Laifu showed the imperial decree sent to him by the emperor to the people present. After reading it, everyone looked sideways at Li Zhiyao.

This edict was made by Li Zhiyao's father.If you don't want to work too hard, you can only work hard for Li Zhiyao, the future person on duty.

Li Zhiyao hurriedly said flatteringly, "Master, as long as you are willing to teach me, I am willing to do it. I am not afraid of being tired."

Li Zhiyao was really afraid that if he was slow in expressing his opinion, he would be ridiculed by the eyes of all the senior brothers in a while.

Li Zhiyao's statement satisfied everyone present.

Next, Qiu Laifu left the matter of investigating the shopkeeper to Lingxiao Pavilion.

Go and investigate the master behind the underground palace by yourself.Little Red Huzi and Cao Zhiyang cooperated with Li Zhiyao in mining iron ore.

This matter seemed to be the most complicated and difficult, but Qiu Laifu gave Li Zhiyao a suggestion, dividing the whole matter into several parts, the matter was much simpler.

Since mining iron ore is an aboveboard mining, you can hire the surrounding villagers.On the one hand, it can give the villagers more income, and on the other hand, in order for the villagers to obtain this income for a long time, they can also protect the iron mine by the way.

As for whether to use weapons or make agricultural tools, Qiu Laifu has already made a reasonable plan for him.

Half of each batch of smelted iron is made with weapons, and the other half is made with farm tools.

Qiu Lefu explained the necessity of this plan to Li Zhiyao carefully.

If every country wants to be strong and prosperous, it must have a powerful force that can withstand external forces.And that power is the army.

To make this army powerful, it is to let them have excellent weapons.

Qiu Laifu also provided a recipe for making iron on this point.Make their weapons sharper than ordinary weapons.

The same goes for making farm tools.Qiu Laifu also drew some pictures of farm tools, such as iron rake, pickaxe and sickle.And the hoes, plowshares, and big iron palladiums that existed before.etc.

Qiu Laifu also told him a very powerful truth about making more farm tools.

If a country needs to support so many people, if you want to feed everyone, you must develop agriculture.With suitable and easy-to-use farm tools, not only can you save labor.It can also increase the harvest.
