Chapter 1615 Iron Ore
All-light policy!
This is the policy that Tang Junming implemented on the Nanman Mountains. Any valuable things will be taken away and put away without any exceptions, even those barbarians.
Only in this way can Tang Junming accumulate wealth and resources at the fastest speed, turn them into general experience, and improve his own strength.
Moreover, under this policy, various resources in the mountains of the Southern Barbarians became extremely scarce, which led to basically no barbarians who had been looted by Nantian County.
This will save the Nantian County legions from being attacked in these places. This carpet-like attack can effectively eliminate all rebellious forces and lay a good foundation for the Nantian County rule.
Although the resources of these captured barbarian lands have become extremely scarce, the abandoned places can be completely fertilized through some modern knowledge mastered by Tang Junming.
Not to mention that the practitioners in this world also have the power to move mountains and seas. It is not impossible to cultivate these barren mountains, but it only takes a little more time and energy.
This time is a bit too long for the barbarians. After all, the barbarians have never liked farming and have not mastered advanced farming methods. Even if they put these barren mountains in front of them, they would not be able to do anything.
However, Nantian County and Tang Junming were able to do it. Even if they cost more, once the cultivation was successful, these places would be the foundation for all eternity.
The most important thing is that in the process of reclaiming barren mountains, you can fully discover some unexpected good things.
"I'm sure there's iron ore under this barren mountain?"
Tang Junming, who was attacking the next barbarian country on the front line, suddenly received good news from the rear, and the logistics troops responsible for plundering resources unexpectedly discovered a large iron ore.
The abundant resources of this iron ore are enough to rank among the top three in Yunlai Country.
Tang Junming immediately put down the battle and came to this barren mountain.
Several surveyors fell to the ground: "It is true and there is no false words."
Tang Junming nodded, went to see the mine opening in person, and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, I remember your great achievements in this matter. I will mine the iron ore inside as soon as possible. I will refine a magic weapon."
"Abide by Your Highness's orders." Many of the responsible persons knelt down happily.
With this large iron ore, Tang Junming no longer has to spend money to buy high-priced weapons when he needs weapons in the future. He can use this to open his own weapons workshop.
In the past, there was no iron ore in Nantian County, so all the minerals needed by Nantian County were basically imported from the outside world, and the required price was far more than that of casting by oneself.
However, iron ore is a rigorous circulation object in Yunlaiguo. If it is really transported from the outside world, the time and cost required is far less than that of the local ones.
Tang Junming had to cover his nose to buy high-priced weapons from the outside world. An iron knife cost less than one tael of silver could be sold in Nantian County. It is conceivable how much wealth the outside weapon merchants have earned from it, but as a necessity, Nantian County had to buy it.
So after learning about this situation, Tang Junming immediately thought of the Southern Barbarian Mountains.
According to his understanding, the minerals in this world are basically in the mountainous areas. The mountains of the Nanman are as huge as that, how can there be no minerals?
Therefore, before conquering the mountains of the Nanman, Tang Junming had specially trained a large number of mine seekers, specifically used to find various minerals in the mountains of the Nanman.
Hard work pays off. Just after dozens of days of southern expedition, these mine seekers discovered such a huge iron ore. It is conceivable that as time goes by, Nantian County can find many minerals in the Nanman Mountains.
Even if you can't find other minerals, just such a huge iron ore can save Tang Junming a huge amount of resources and wealth.
Moreover, Tang Junming, who has mastered a large number of modern smelting technologies, can use this iron ore to build a top smelting base in Yunlai Country, producing endless streams of 100-fen steel knives. Not only do they no longer have to import weapons from outside, they can also export a large number of weapons and earn a lot of wealth.
Tang Junming believes that weapons smelted with modern technology are far superior to those weapons workshops in Yunlaiguo in terms of quality and speed. Tang Junming wants to defeat them just a piece of cake.
One by one, one can imagine Tang Junming’s income.
Moreover, in addition to iron ore, there must be other minerals in the mountains of the Southern Barbarians. After all, how could there be only one iron ore with such vast and continuous mountains?
If it were other forces, they might be worried that the mountain road was difficult to move, and there were many barbarians, and even if the ore veins were found, they would not be able to be mined or transported.
However, Nantian County is close to the Nanman Mountains, and Tang Junming adopted a carpet-like expansion. Wherever he passed, all the barbarians were killed or subdued. He even chose a suitable place to cast an official road, known as the Nantian Gate Path.
Wherever the Nantian Gate passes, the huge army of Nantian County can pass through and break through all the barbarian kingdoms along the way.
If you encounter a mine, you can also open a fork from the Nantian Gate and spread to the mine, which does not take much energy and time.
What's more, this is a fantasy world. Cultivators can easily move thousands of kilograms of huge rocks, even tens of thousands of kilograms of huge rocks, hundreds of thousands of kilograms of huge rocks, so it is much easier to open up a mountain road in the mountains.
It is just that it is difficult to dig the Nantian Gate. Once the Nantian Gate is successfully opened, it will be much easier next.
Moreover, the Nantian Gate can easily cover the vast mountains. If any barbarians appear around, the army of Nantian County can arrive at an extremely fast speed, defeat all these barbarians or capture them.
With the help of the Nantian Gate, the barbarian kingdoms were successively captured and a large number of resources were plundered. Tang Junming occupied a large area of the southern barbarian mountains at an extremely fast speed.
Tang Junming used the rich brainwashing experience of the Immortal Dynasty of the prosperous Tang Dynasty to turn these captured barbarians into their own people at an astonishing speed, with an amazing efficiency.
You should know that the Immortal Dynasty of the prosperous Tang Dynasty was a terrifying empire that could be conquered by other cosmic lives, not to mention some barbarians. Tang Junming only needed to use a little trick to make these barbarians surrender obediently.
The barbarians, which were extremely difficult for other forces to subdue, became a huge help from Nantian County when they arrived at Tang Junming, helping Tang Junming to conquer the mountains of Nanban more quickly.
Under this virtuous cycle, Nantian County's conquest of the Nanman Mountains became faster and faster. In just a few months, thirty-six barbarian countries were conquered by Tang Junming, and the mountains occupied were as big as one-third of Yunlai Country.
