Next, Ma Lin taught them how to make soap and weave mosquito nets.
The primitive people of this tribe were truly skillful, and they learned everything in just four or five days.
Things had never gone so smoothly before.
Then Ma Lin started to search for resources all around.
Especially in hopes of finding metal.
He found natural sulfur, also located in a cave.
Nothing else.
Ma Lin saw mountains, rocky hills, and riverbeds filled with hope. He had no idea what kind of place metal ore would be distributed in, so he'd search in mountains, rocky hills, and stony riverbeds. Often, he would dig up soil layers and smash rocks to see what lay inside.
Since he lacked knowledge in prospecting, he thought he should try the most cumbersome methods of searching for minerals.
Some stones had metallic particles, small metallic chunks; you could distinguish copper and iron with the naked eye.
He believed these ores were his target. As long as one wasn't blind, they wouldn't miss them.
