Chapter 12 An unexpected surprise



A few hundred meters away, Chen Wangping spent thirty copper coins to buy a bag of broken cables with the insulation almost worn out at another stall.

Take it home and pull it to get copper wire.

Holding the cable, Chen Wangping secretly looked back at Lao Zhang's expression and felt inexplicably funny.

In the face of interests, Lao Zhang became stupid.

Forget it, forget about it. More than thirty magnets are enough to last for a while.

Once we have a mineral detector, we might be able to dig up natural magnets.

Always buying magnets from outside stalls is not a long-term solution.

As for whether to give the blue iron ore to Lao Zhang, we will see the situation when the time comes.

After returning home, Chen Wangping patiently peeled off all the copper wires.

It took him more than an hour to strip out more than ten pieces of copper wire.

After stripping the copper wire, Chen Wangping ate some bread and drank a can of water.

After a short rest, he started winding the magnetic coils and circuit boards again.

The climate in the wasteland changes drastically in the summer. The temperature drops sharply as soon as it gets dark, and the wind is also very cold.

After working for half an hour, Chen Wangping placed the stones, iron plates, circuit boards, and magnetic coils on the manufacturing table.

After selecting the mineral detector, the robotic arm of the manufacturing station began to work again.

[The mineral detector is being built, it is expected to take one hour]

Looking at the prompts on the manufacturing table, Chen Wangping stretched and kicked his legs.

In the past two days, he could clearly feel that his physical fitness was much better than before he got the lightning seed.

Combined with the phenomenon of lightning energy dissipating when waking up from a nap.

Chen Wangping wondered if this lightning seed had been silently improving his physical fitness?

It’s a pity that cameras haven’t been invented yet, so I can’t see what I look like when I’m asleep.

Keep saving.

After resting for an hour, Chen Wangping went into the basement again.

At this time, a circular icon was floating above the manufacturing table.

Chen Wangping ran over excitedly and took it off.

The mineral detector looks a bit like a large pocket watch. It is grayish white in color. The entire front is a display screen with many longitude and latitude lines on it. There is also a round switch button on the top, which looks very textured.

【Mineral Detector】

[Detectable mineral types: coal mine, iron ore, copper mine]

Power: 10W

[Detection range: 100m×100m×100m]

【Note: It is very fragile】

The properties of the mineral detector are simple and powerful.

This little thing can actually detect minerals within a radius of 100 meters!

Chen Wangping couldn't let go of the mineral detector and pressed the power button.

After waiting for a few seconds, the mineral detector did not respond.

After turning it over and taking a look, Chen Wangping discovered that there were two terminal blocks on the back of the mineral detector.

So it has to be charged before it can be used.

Okay.

Chen Wangping accepted his fate.

He took a length of wire, wrapped one end around two fingers, and the other end around a terminal.

Fortunately, this thing has low power, only 10W.

After connecting the power supply, Chen Wangping pressed the power button again.

A few seconds later, a light green light emerged from the mineral detector.

Then, the light constructed a spherical three-dimensional image within a radius of one hundred meters, with several icons inside.

Chen Wangping took a look and saw that the little person icon in the middle of the image must be himself.

According to the scale, the two black coal icons five meters underground and thirty meters north of the little man icon should refer to their own coal mines.

The accuracy is very high.

But at this time, Chen Wangping was pleasantly surprised to find that in addition to his own coal mine, the spherical detection map also included the mineral icon of Wang Jin's family.

What a pleasant surprise!

Chen Wangping covered the mineral detector with a piece of cloth and carefully walked to the corner of the wall he shared with Wang Jin's family. He reached into the cloth and carefully examined the spherical detection map. "One, two, three coal mines? Wait, there's actually a small copper mine 60 meters underground behind the second coal mine?"

Judging from the size of the icon of the miniature copper mine, it covers an area of ​​at least one hundred square meters.

Moreover, seeing that the copper mine is so deep, Wang Jin probably has never mined it.

This is really good news.

Chen Wangping secretly made up his mind, "After I kill Wang Jin, I'll find a way to take over his family's contracted land as well."

Copper mines are good things, and even people in the inner city have always been trying to get more of them.

Chen Wangping had been mining outside the city for so long, but he had never been to a copper mine.

According to the old masters, the copper mines on the slopes of Black Stone Mine have basically been mined out, and the few remaining copper mines have already been mined by long-term miners.

There is no need for temporary miners like them.

Looking at the mineral detector in his hand, Chen Wangping was a little tempted. "Although those masters said that the copper mines have been mined out, there may still be some copper ore left that has not been discovered. If you want to make a gun, you must have copper ore."

After thinking about it, he decided to go out of the city tomorrow to see the situation and then decide what to dig.

I looked at the time and it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.

Looking at the manufacturing table next to him, Chen Wangping decided to make another wind turbine.

Thanks to Lao Zhang for the magnet.

Finally, I don’t have to be a human power bank anymore.

After working for another hour and a half, Chen Wangping finally made another wind turbine.

After a busy day, there are only two iron plates in the storage compartment, which is not enough for anything.

After leaving the basement, Chen Wangping put the new wind turbine together with the previous one.

The night wind blew, and the two wind turbines began to spin together.
