5. Stonebreaker 3
There is a mine in Xiahe Village. The older generation said that a silver dragon was sleeping in the ravine behind Xiahe Village. I heard that someone had picked up silver lumps. Later, the National Geological Team came to explore and found the ore veins, but it was not silver but coal. It was too small and gave up without the value of excavation.
But some speculators learned about this. They secretly ran to the valley to blow up holes and open black mines, and then recruited local villagers to work as miners, with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan.
At that time, ordinary people earned more than 10,000 yuan a year, and 3,000 yuan a month was very tempting for them, so many people went to work.
Xiao Chen's father Xiao Li is one of them.
Xiao Chen still remembers that his father started working for the first time and went to the city to buy him a big toy car, which made him very happy.
But the good times did not last long. The mine cave had safety hazards due to design problems, and no one paid attention to it. In the end, it eventually led to a tragic mine accident, killing more than 40 people. Unfortunately, Xiao Chen's father was also among them.
There was no compensation, and the black mine owner ran away on the day of the accident and the money was taken away. When the police came to the door, they were empty.
This tragedy became an eternal pain for the entire Xiahe Village, and Xiao Chen became a child without his father's care from now on.
Xiao Chen came back from the past and the bus was almost driving to Xiahe Village.
"Hey, have you heard that? Old Liu from Car No. 2 met an awesome guy yesterday and converted his old and broken car into a super sports car, and his speed was so fast! Now the company has changed him to a new car, he still doesn't want to."
"I heard Cuihua also say that the young man had a ponytail, he looked quite handsome, so amazing!"
"Masters are among the people! If I meet them, I will ask him to help me change this broken car, as slow as a snail."
Hearing the conversation between the driver and the flight attendant, Xiao Chen hid backwards, and this hairstyle seemed to have to be changed.
When the car arrived at Xiahe Village, Xiao Chen did not go home, but went straight to the valley behind the village. He went to play in the coal mine where his father worked when he was a child. He still remembered the general location. He opened the map and carefully identified it, and soon found it.
The coal mine has been abandoned for many years, and the factory has collapsed. Machinery equipment covered with brown rust was thrown scattered on the open space in front of the factory, swallowed up by half a man-tall weeds. The words "Xiahe Coal Mine" can still be vaguely identified on the tilted iron sign, which is very desolate.
Standing in front of the dark mine cave, Xiao Chen took a deep breath, which evoked the sad past of his childhood.
Shaking his head, Xiao Chen found a fluorite lamp from his small bag and wore it on his forehead. This headlight is an engineering product, with great lighting effect and can be used for a year without changing fluorite. It is very popular among dog-headed miners.
When you open the map and use the "mining" skill, golden dots of all sizes suddenly appeared on the map, which represents ore. Some dots overlap closely and form a line. This is the ore vein.
Xiao Chen was not here to dig coal, his target was silver.
Although the legend has fictional elements, nothing can be groundless. Xiao Chen believes that the legendary "Silver Dragon" exists!
Exploring mineral veins has not been an easy task since ancient times. Even if modern people have advanced equipment, sometimes they still cannot find the true location of mineral veins.
But Xiao Chen is different. He has a full-level mining skill. He can find even the rarest Aojin mine in Ruolan Continent. It is simply too easy to find a small silver mine.
Soon he saw an ore vein that runs over 100 meters from east to west on the map. As he thought, the information of the ore vein appeared in front of him. It was silver! The legend is indeed true!
Xiao Chen walked along the railway tracks into the depths of the mine. A fence made of wood blocked him, and a line of words was written in red paint: "There is danger ahead, no passage!"
Xiao Chen looked behind the fence and blocked the mine channel tightly. This was the place where the collapse occurred many years ago, swallowing more than 40 lives.
It is definitely impossible to move these huge rocks weighing more than ten tons with manpower, and they must rely on machines!
Xiao Chen withdrew from the mine, counted the mechanical equipment discarded everywhere, calculated silently in his mind, and nodded: "The materials are enough, but I don't know how the performance of the gravel 3 made of scrap iron from Sky Blue Star is. Let's try it out first."
Take out the universal engineering toolbox from the small bag, which contains various tools. Xiao Chen first disassembled the scrap copper and iron, then extracted available parts from it and transformed it, and then assembled the gravel 3 according to the design drawing.
The design drawing of Stonegraver No. 3 was exchanged by Xiao Chen for an old goblin engineer with a pot of "Fire Passion". This transaction is very cost-effective because such a precious design drawing can't be bought with money.
The iron guy is 3.15 meters tall and weighs 10.5 tons. He does not require human control and can automatically mine. Its bottom is designed with tracks, making it effortless to walk on the bumpy gravel road surface.
The four mechanical arms are equipped with drill bits, hammers, grab hooks and buckets, which can easily break the rocks and collect the gravel into the filter machine on the abdomen. Useless stones will be filtered out, and all that are left are purified ore.
A stone graveler can dig 3,000 upright soil and stones a day, and small coal mines like Xiahe Coal Mine can be digged in two or three months.
It only took Xiao Chen an hour to assemble such an iron guy. He climbed onto the stone graveler, opened the lid on its back, and put a fist-sized "demon soul stone" in it. The stone graveler was equivalent to having intelligence, and Xiao Chen could give orders to it.
Not only that, the Demon Soul Stone can also provide sufficient energy to the stone gravelers, and it will be no problem to operate for several months.
"Go dig silver!"
"As for order!" The stone graveler raised four mechanical arms and entered the mine. After a while, a huge rumbling noise came, and it began to work.
After collecting enough ore, the gravelists will automatically come out of the mine cave and unload it on the spot, so there is no need for Xiao Chen to stay here.
When I returned home, before I entered the yard, Xiao Chen heard Nini talking: "Dahuang, you are not good! You danced so well yesterday, why didn't you? Let me dance one! Otherwise, I won't give you a meal!"
Xiao Chen poked his head out from the wall and saw Nini pulling Dahuang's two front paws back and forth on the ground. Dahuang could only rely on her hind legs to support her body, drooping her head, and looking desperate.
Xiao Chen held back his laughter, walked to the gate and coughed, saying, "Does Nini want to watch Dahuang dance? Dad can let it dance."
When Nini heard this, her beautiful big eyes lit up, but she quickly shook her head again and said with her mouth: "If you don't have your help, I can let Dahuang dance!"
This little girl has a pretty stubborn temper.
To be honest, Xiao Chen still likes Nini very much. The little girl looks very similar to him when she was a child, and she has a stubborn temper. I remember that when she was a child, she was scolded by her mother and she was angry and didn’t eat. No one would persuade her to do anything!
By the way, I still don’t know if Nini is her own flesh and blood. This question is very important and we must confirm it as soon as possible.
I found two clay flower pots in the yard and filled them with soil. Xiao Chen buried the seeds of the two medicinal materials and prepared to put them in the house to raise them well.
These two medicinal materials are very common in Ruolan Continent and are the ones that can be picked at will, so Xiao Chen only brought one for each of them. They are the key to whether his mother can return to normal, and Xiao Chen dared not be careless at all.
When he walked into the room, Xiao Chen frowned at the dust and spider webs. It was impossible to live in such a way, so he had to clean the house quickly.
After searching around, Xiao Chen placed a broom, a ragged rag and a plastic bucket in front of him. He took out a small golden cloth bag from his small bag, grabbed a handful of shiny arcane dust and sprinkled it on three things.
