Chapter 24

The next day, just after dawn, ye Lingyue finished her daily practice and went to yejiashifang according to ye HuangYun's arrangement.

Yejia started with iron ore. Shifang is to cut the ore excavated from Qixing mountain, and then classify and screen it. After preliminary refining, it is sent to the county for sale.

Shifang can also carry out small-scale ore trading to supply the daily expenses of iron shops and residents in Qiufeng town. Therefore, it is Yejia stone workshop, but it is also a small market.

Each year, the Ye family has 70% or 80% of its income, which depends on Shifang. Therefore, Shifang is second only to Yejia mine in importance.

"Lingyue, this is your first time to Shifang. I'll show you around." In charge of leading ye Lingyue is Ye Sheng, a big cousin who met her on the clan test.

Ye Sheng is 16 years old and looks pretty, just because he is the eldest grandson of the Ye family, and he can't help being arrogant.

when he mentions ye Lingyue, he doesn't have much impression on her, only knowing that she was born a fool.

This time, ye Lingyue made a great success in the clan test. Her father, ye HuangYun, was also full of praise for ye Lingyue, saying that she was a little genius.

Ye Sheng looked at it today and felt that ye Lingyue was just like this. He just fluently defeated Ye Ning, and he was called a little genius. His father was too exaggerating.

In Ye Sheng's opinion, the third aunt was a genius when she was young, which does not mean that her daughter is also a genius. The only genius that Ye Sheng can admit to is ye Liuyun.

At the end of the month, you can't help but ask the leaves of Lingfang.

"Lingyue, you are the Ye family. Do you know what the main business of the Ye family is?" Ye Shengbian walks, asking ye Lingyue.

"Mines and iron ore. I heard that it was because he discovered a big mine in the mountains that he got his home. " Ye Lingyue knows a little about Ye's family history.

"Wrong, how can ordinary iron ore support the whole Ye family. What the Ye family is really good at is refining iron and refining dark iron Ye Sheng skimmed her lips, and despised ye Lingyue's ignorance.

Such a simple thing, even the three-year-old children of Ye family know that ye Lingyue doesn't know.

"Please give me some advice." Ye Lingyue didn't care. Instead, she asked for advice with an open mind.

"Iron and dark iron are different. For example, the two piles in front of us are iron stones, and the silver ones are dark iron stones. The two look only slight color difference, but the price is 20 times different. Ordinary iron workers can cut and refine, but black iron can only be cut by those who are more than three times strong, and those who are more than five times strong can be refined. " Said Ye Sheng picked up a piece of iron ore and dark iron stone, and ye Lingyue explained.

From ye Shengkou, ye Lingyue also knew a lot about iron and dark iron.

In summer, iron can only be used to forge civil appliances, but dark iron can be used to forge weapons and equip the army.

The output of dark iron stone is small, so it is very difficult to refine it. Even ye family can only refine it preliminarily.

Among the iron ore produced by Yejia mine every year, the proportion of dark iron and iron ore is 100 times different. However, it is also because ye family has a small part of dark iron that it can stand in Qiufeng town for many years.

After walking around the stone workshop, both the workers in the stone workshop and the businessmen and townspeople who came to trade with each other, when they met Ye Sheng, they couldn't help calling out "master Ye Sheng" respectfully. It can be seen that Ye Sheng's status in the stone workshop is still very high.

Those people saw Ye Sheng beside him, followed by a beautiful woman, but they couldn't help looking at it. Ye Sheng didn't introduce him. It was obvious that he intended to cool the fallen leaves and Ling the moon.

"I still have some things on hand. The part in front of me is iron ore and dark iron ore. you should learn to distinguish them. There is a processing plant ahead. If you are interested, you can go in and have a look." After Ye Sheng explained for a while, he let ye Lingyue think about it in private and left for the time being.

Ye Lingyue stood for a moment beside the body of basalt and iron ore.

Ye shengrang ye Lingyue distinguishes Xuan iron ore from iron ore because when they were first mined, they were very similar. It is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish them except for experienced masters. In previous years, many mine workers used inferior iron ore as high-quality iron ore to fake Xuan iron ore for huge profits.

The first thing for the Ye family who go to Shifang to study is to distinguish xuaniron ore from iron ore.

For others, it is difficult to distinguish the two minerals with the naked eye, but in ye Lingyue's eyes, it is clear at a glance, because she has a magical qiandingding breath.

The tip of the finger moved, and the tripod in the dry cauldron got into a piece of dark iron stone.

As Ye Sheng said, the gray and white is iron, and silver is dark iron. Most of the dark iron ore mined by Ye family is actually a mixture of iron and dark iron.

Ye Lingyue observed, found that in front of this pile of dark iron ore, there are a lot of impurities, each piece inside the dark iron composition how much poor.

In one piece, there are only about one or two percent of dark iron.

Obviously, this kind of Xuan iron ore can't be sold directly to the county and city. Therefore, it needs the martial arts of Ye family to refine it preliminarily before it can be sold.The grade of Xuan iron ore is obviously much lower than that of Xuanyin jade. The Dingxi in the dry cauldron saw the impurities in the dark iron ore, but after a lazy circle, it shrank back.

Thump, thump - there was a jingle in front of me.

Ye Lingyue walked forward and saw that the processing workshop was busy. About 20 or 30 warriors were cutting and forging Xuan iron ore respectively.

Drink - a big drink, beside ye Lingyue, a martial artist who is refining triple body will gather Yuan Li on an iron axe, and cut it with one axe. The dark iron ore is cut into several parts.

Then, the cut iron ore was handed over to a Wuzhong warrior.

I saw the other hand holding a hammer, Keng Keng, Keng down.

With a clang sound, the hammer hit the dark iron ore.

I saw the hammer body, carrying Ling the Yuan Li, a hammer fell on the iron ore, the force of the fierce, the concentration of strength, attracted a burst of applause.

With the hammer falling, ye Lingyue can see a large number of stone debris falling, part of the ore impurities are also hammered out.

Different from ordinary Tiepu ironmaking, the workers in yejiashifang who deal with Xuan iron ore are not simple. If you look closely, you will find that they used Yuanli in cutting and forging.

After cutting and forging, it takes about an hour for a piece of dark iron. The size of the ore is reduced by half. However, the content of dark iron in it can be increased to 34%, so that the dark iron ore can be transported to the county for sale.

In a crowd of cheers, ye Lingyue quit the processing plant.

"It's laborious. I don't know if Qianding can be used to purify Xuan iron." Ye Lingyue out of the processing plant, still holding two pieces of Shun to Xuan iron ore and iron ore.
