Chapter 2491 Gold Mine Found Across the Strait
The appearance of the boats added some color to the dull sea. The boats were small and paddled.
"These people are soldiers and logistics transport personnel of the Umayyad Dynasty. They rowed to the north and drove out the Visigothic Kingdom last year. They continued to occupy and eliminate disobedient people.
Now this place is called... Andalusia, ruled by the Umayyad Dynasty, and the White Arabs sent them things and technology."
Li Yi introduced the personnel and the situation, and told everyone that the White Arabs were very good at fighting.
Don't look at how badly they were beaten by the Turks and Sulu in Longyou Road. They have a large territory and a large number of people.
"Will they withdraw troops to fight us?"
Princess Yongmu helped ask the question that many people wanted to ask.
"Too far, they can't stop attacking here just because the people over there were beaten...
They just occupied the place, and it takes some time to manage the locals before they can have the strength to expand outward.
If they want to occupy the place, the best way is to go by land. There is a mountain range in the northeast of this location, and they can go over it.
Some people over there will resist, and they will withdraw their manpower. The people here have to cross the strait to the south, then go to the canal, and then cross the river.
The distance is far, and the logistics pressure is great. They can only send people from the other side of the canal."
Li Yi first talked about the distance and supply issues.
Then he laughed: "Besides, they can't beat us. When I build the cannon and airship, I will use the excuse that the White Arabs have beaten us to help the people who are oppressed by them."
"Yeah!" Princess Yongmu nodded. Yes, our weapons are powerful.
The people on the boat in the Strait of Gibraltar were very surprised when they saw the yacht. This boat...why is it so big?
Some people picked up weapons and probably considered taking the boat for their own use.
Li Yi hung a flag, the flag of the Egyptian governor. He didn't want to open fire. How could he trade after the battle?
Our own people went to the local area to build and dig gold?
The loudspeaker on the yacht began to shout, telling these people that we are from the Tang Dynasty and have a good relationship with your governor.
Those who wanted to rob saw the flag and heard the voice, put down their weapons and smiled, and they turned out to be friends.
Some of them shouted: "Use your boat to help us transport it?"
"No, we are in a hurry to go there to bring things back to send to your governor, and we are in a hurry, and the boat can't carry too many things and people."
Li Yi refused, told two lies, and the yacht sped away.
The people on the boat looked at it enviously. The boat was not only big, but also fast.
After passing the Strait of Gibraltar, the yacht sailed southwest, along the coast, not to the Canary Islands, where there is nothing good at the moment.
"Going further ahead, the local area is still occupied by the White-clothed Arabs. They have some resources, the most of which is phosphate, but we don't need to buy from there.
After passing, you can see the plains by the sea. If you go east, there are hills, and then a large area of desert."
Li Yi continued to talk, and he popularized science all the way.
The people in the village watched the pictures and listened to the explanations. They felt very satisfied. They saw the outside world and learned knowledge.
The drone took off and took more images. Everyone could watch them in split screen, including various plants and animals.
"Find a chance to go there." Li Dan looked at it with yearning. The world is so big...
"Yes!" Li Longji also wanted to go, but he had to wait until the children grew up, or there were internal problems.
Just take the Tang cruiser, it is safe and the environment is comfortable.
"Alas!" Bi Gou sighed. He had not yet delegated power and could not go out.
...
Two days later, the yacht passed by Senegal, Gambia, Guinea and other countries when Li Yi was there.
There was no stop along the way. There were few people on the beach here, and there was nothing to exchange.
Finally, we passed Sierra Leone and arrived at a place called Liberia to replenish fresh water and see if there were any wild vegetables to eat.
There was no one here, and they had not migrated yet.
"Our people need to come here. There are diamonds and gold mines in the area. There are no outsiders. Our people can mine them and plant crops here.
The local crops grow fast, similar to our Qiongzhou, Zhenzhou and other places.
Growing rubber is good, but we need to go to the other side to get rubber seeds.
The army comes every two years, ordinary people don't come, we don't colonize.
Merchants are not allowed to come here. After a few years, when our technology is higher, we will consider changing the policy."
Li Yi didn't know how many gold mines there were here, because he hadn't explored them all at that time.
There are many Chinese people who come here to pan for gold. Some make a fortune, and some leave their lives behind.
"Brother Yi, how much military pay is appropriate for soldiers who go to mine gold and diamonds?"
Li Longji said to the little robot, directly video.
"Just a little better treatment is enough. The army must listen to orders. It is impossible to say that they are mining gold and then distribute it to them according to the proportion."
Li Yi understood what Li Longji meant. Others would be in a bad mood when they saw so much gold, but it was not theirs.
People who mined gold in the Tang Dynasty, didn't they hand in the gold they mined?
How could the gold troops say how much they mined and share it with the country?
Other troops were given two strings of cash per person per month, and the gold troops were given five strings of cash per person. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net After collecting more gold, they were given extra rewards.
"Very good!" Li Longji asked, and Yi Di said it was okay.
"Li Lang, Li Lang, look, is this piece of gold I'm holding? It's too big and heavy."
Princess Yongmu ran over from the river where she fetched water, shouting as she ran. She and Xiaolan were holding something together.
In front of them, put it on the ground, and the two of them panted.
Li Yi looked at the things on the ground: "..."
He squatted down and picked it up, then put it down again: "Keep it, don't sell it, don't melt it, thirty or forty kilograms of dog-head gold."
"Xiao Yi, send someone, send someone immediately." Bi Gou stood up and stared at the big screen.
Is there really gold? And it can be picked up casually by the river? Are there piles of gold buried in the local soil?
More people ran to the river, and even Qingdai and others couldn't help it.
"How can it be so easy to find? I don't know how this piece appeared, why is it in the river?"
Li Yi didn't go. He looked at the images given by the drone and checked the information by the way. Compared with his time, many places are different.
Unless it depends on longitude and latitude, the location of the coast also changes.
First circle out the good mines where gold has been found in the data, so that it is easy to dig, and ignore those with too low grade for the time being.
"Owner, I found a small one, look, it's about the size of a fist."
As soon as Li Yi finished speaking, someone shouted by the river and raised something by the way.
"Boss, I have several as big as beans." Someone ran into the river, bending down again and again as if picking up something.
"Fuck!" Li Yi cursed and ran to the river. It was too fake, right?
He suspected that this was originally a large gold mine, and then the river was diverted and washed away, or there was an earthquake or something.
The probability of rock gold is high, how can alluvial gold be so big?
