Chapter 520 Meeting

Zhang Jin was too lazy to talk to her, so he went outside and ordered with his eldest daughter-in-law, "Kill chickens and ducks at night, and entertain guests!"

Fang Shi in the room paused, looking at the things on the ground, without making a sound.

At this time, Wen Yuanhong was almost at the village head's house.

Zhangjiagou is not big, there are only a few households, you can find it by just looking for it in the direction pointed by Zhang Jin.

"Is anyone here?" Wen Yuanhong knocked on the wooden door, looked at the bottomless mountain behind him, and frowned. If he could wait, he didn't want to venture into the mountain at this time! However, can he wait?

The sound of the door opened his mind. Looking back, he saw a child standing in front of him. He blinked with clear eyes and asked innocently, "Who are you looking for?"

A flash of surprise flashed in Wen Yuanhong's eyes, he took out a candy from his arms and handed it over, and said warmly, "Child, I'm looking for the village chief, and I want to meet the guests who live in your house."

The child couldn't move his eyes after taking the candy, turned and ran into the house, the door was left open.

Wen Yuanhong was stunned, followed behind him, and strode in. Before he could enter the main room, a door was opened in a room in the west wing, "Come in."

Wen Yuanhong was startled, he hurriedly turned around, hurried in, closed the door, and asked in a low voice, "How is it? What's the situation here now?"

Lao Jitou Lao Shen was sitting on the ground, his hands crossed his chest, shaking his head, and his voice was low, "The situation is unknown, the mountain conditions in Zhangjiagou are more complicated than I imagined, and now the mountains are covered by heavy snow, no matter how good my martial arts are, I will not Dare to go in easily, plus the snow is too thick and the soil is hard, it can be said that we can't do anything!"

Wen Yuanhong: ". Then wait like this?"

Old Jitou's voice was steady, and he couldn't hear any waves, "There is no other way but to wait. The good news is that I have inquired about it, and it is generally possible to enter the mountains in February, when the ice and snow melt, and the grass and trees are just growing. Ya, with a wide field of vision, it is easy to do something, plus the emperor gave a rough range, we are still very good at starting."

Wen Yuanhong touched his chin and pondered deeply, saying, "The 'Hardware' Cloud' in the next volume of "Heavenly Creation", the silver seedlings in the earth, or yellow gravel, or the shape of chaotic threads in the soil gap and stone seam, this means that the mine will not be removed. It’s a long way off. Anything that turns into silver is called reefs, and those that are broken are called sand, and those whose surface is divided into branches are called scorpions. The outer ring of stones is called ore… 'Would it be faster to find it from this angle?"

Old Jitou snapped his fingers and stood up lazily from his chair, "It's a young man, and he has a good memory! But these are just talk on paper, and the actual situation is often more complicated. If you want to copy the theory, you won't be able to do it for ten years. We will definitely be able to dig silver mines, and it is very likely that this mountain forest with mountains and mountains will be destroyed like those stone mountains!"

Wen Yuanhong was shocked when he was told, "What should I do then?"

Old Jitou took out a map of Zhangjiagou mountain forest from his arms, "I got this with a lot of effort, combined with the general scope given by the emperor, I will reduce the places where the silver mines are buried to these five. Mountain.

The local residents said that they found a bandit den in the deep mountains, and there was nothing in it. I wanted to go and have a look, maybe I could find some clues. "

Wen Yuanhong frowned and struggled for a long time, then he sighed helplessly, "We can only do this first."

You can’t always go your own way knowing that there is danger, and then you’ll get yourself into it if you don’t do things well. Silver mine is a big deal. If the news leaks, someone must want to get a piece of the pie. There are always people who are not afraid of death who will miss people's hearts, and it is estimated that there will be constant trouble at that time.

Since there is nothing they can do at this time, they can only prepare their troops and horses in advance, and wait until the ice and snow melt before taking action.

After the two discussed the business, Wen Yuanhong asked hesitantly, "What are you going to do in the future?"

Lao Ji raised his eyebrows.

Wen Yuanhong explained: "I'm asking what are your plans before entering the mountain? Do you want to stay in Zhangjiagou all the time?"

"Who said that I have to stay in Zhangjiagou all the time?" Old Jitou showed a faint smile of unknown meaning.

Wen Yuanhong was stunned, "Then what are you planning?"

Lao Jitou didn't follow him around, and said directly: "Look at the map, the five mountains I circled are not far from the stone mountains in your house. Since we are going to mine, we will naturally proceed in a low-key manner, starting from Zhangjiagou. Going in isn't the best option, so I'd like to take a detour from Stone Mountain.

In this way, you have to do your best. Your family has a workshop in Stone Mountain, so it is not a problem to arrange some accommodation for us. Besides, those Stone Mountains were originally caused by mining. Everyone knows that we went in to dig. Mine, others will only see it as a joke, and will not really pay attention to it.

When the specific excavation points for the five mountains are determined, and the place where the miners live is completed, our people will be evacuated, so that we can hide from the people who are interested. "

After hearing the whole plan of Old Jitou, Wen Yuanhong immediately gave him a thumbs up, "Sure enough, he is the commander of the secret camp, and he is very thoughtful, but why do I think Master Ji seems to have known each other?"

Old Jitou's calmness was lost at this moment, his smiling brows froze, but fortunately he was wearing a mask, and Wen Yuanhong couldn't see it, after three breaths, he laughed dryly: "People are similar, maybe it's Lord Wen's illusion. "

Wen Yuanhong had a suspicious look on his face, but he couldn't think of his anxiety with the commander of the dark camp, so he nodded his head, recognized his words and turned to talk about You Dagang.

Old Jitou's expression became solemn, and his aura became fierce in vain, "You mean that someone in the court is supporting You Dagang, so he dares to be so reckless and waste his life and exploit the people?"

Wen Yuanhong looked dignified and nodded, "I'm sure there is someone behind him, but I don't know who it is. I don't have the power to investigate now, and even about Zhu Niang, I can only wait for news from Cui Niang, which is very passive. Besides, I'm afraid that I will startle the snake, after all, I am in the Ming Dynasty, and my every move is under the supervision of others.

But you are different. You are the commander of the secret camp and are good at investigating these things. In addition, no one knows that you are in Qing'an County. Even if you do something, it is difficult for You Dagang to find out. Even if he suspects, he will only suspect me. , as long as I didn't make any movement, he would never have imagined that someone was staring at him in the dark. "

The old Jitou pondered for a moment, and responded readily, "Don't worry about this matter, just stare at the silver mine, I will send someone to check on the other side, and if I find something, I will send a letter to the emperor. , to be decided by the emperor."

"Okay." Wen Yuanhong said without hesitation.

Snowflakes were inexplicably floating in the sky from the village chief's house. This is the case in the mountains. If it is colder outside, the mountains will start to form frost. If frost starts to form outside, it should snow in the mountains. Zhangjiagou is even more mountainous than Fushan Village. The temperature is also lower.
