Chapter 425: Complicity
Miao Dan, the country of abundance, is an expert in the literature and history of provincial cities.
He was invited to study the origins of the mine. I thought it would be easy. But these days, he took a group of students and searched through historical documents, but he couldn't find any record of this.
It's not normal.
Such a large mine can't be created out of thin air.
Someone has to mine, dig, refine......
Such a project is definitely not something that can be completed by dozens or hundreds of people, but at least more than 1,000 people to form a complete industrial chain.
Thousands of people live and need a huge amount of support.
The surrounding mountain villages, towns, and even county towns should all leave traces of supplies.
The problem is that there is no record of this in the local annals.
Didn't even mention it......
It's weird, it's very abnormal.
When I asked the surrounding villagers again, even the oldest elders didn't know anything about it, and they shook their heads one after another.
No one knows that there is a mine in the col.
As for nursery rhymes......
It is a proverb passed down from generation to generation by word of mouth by the people in the village.
It is simply impossible, to infer the age from nursery rhymes.
The trail is all broken.
Miao Dan tugged at the few remaining hairs of the fruits, and his heart became entangled.
At the beginning, he said in front of his superiors that it was just a trivial matter, and he solved it in minutes. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be such a slap in the face, and there was no result at all...... Shame on you.
"Hey!"
Miao Dan sighed, and next to him, a group of students also bowed their heads, lest they attract accountability.
"Is it because of the war?"
Miao Dan pondered: "It has led to the loss of historical materials in this area. ”
"The possibilities are high. ”
"Yes, definitely. ”
Several students nodded their heads. But I also know that this is self-exculpation. But there is no way, I really can't find a clue, and this has become the last reason.
Besides, this may be true. After all, since ancient times, the land of abundance has been a battleground for soldiers.
From the Five Dynasties, to the Two Song Dynasties, the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
In all dynasties, such a anointed place as the Land of Abundance has always been the first choice for rebellious armies and rebellions. As soon as Shu Road is burned, there is a natural danger to follow, and it is an independent small kingdom. Such a temptation must have attracted the covetousness of many people.
Therefore, the chaotic battles in the land of Bashu are not necessarily less than those in other places.
It has even suffered several catastrophes.
In the turmoil, it is normal for some classic historical materials to be burned and lost.
This is also the only explanation......
There is an excuse, but it's still a slap in the face.
Miao Dan's brows are locked, if he reports like this, will others think he is incompetent?
"Tuk Tuk!"
Caught off guard, there was a knock on the door outside.
“…… Who?"
One of the students stood up, intending to send the man away. But when he opened the door, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly moved out of the way and let people outside walk in.
A crowd poured in, at least twenty or thirty of them, all burly, very athletic young men.
Entering it, even the spacious office becomes crowded.
"Miao expert!"
When a group of students were stunned and a little panicked.
The person at the head said with a smile: "How about it, the matter of the gold mine, have you come up with the results?"
"Who are you?"
Miao Dan frowned, and was also a little displeased.
He didn't remember that he knew these people, let alone had an appointment with them. That is, these people are uninvited. He's sulking now, but he doesn't have the heart to receive these wicked guests.
Besides, with his current social status, as long as he doesn't cause trouble, he really isn't afraid of anyone.
The confidence is sufficient, and the waist bar is naturally hard.
"Haha, expert Miao, don't be angry. The man smiled and said, "We are good people, knowing your troubles from Expert Miao, we specially came to help." ”
"Help?
Miao Dan sneered: "What do you have that can help me?"
The man smiled and said, "As the saying goes, there is a specialization in the art industry. In terms of erudition, we are naturally inferior to Miao experts. But we know more or less about the origin of the gold mine than you do. ”
"What?"
Miao Dan was startled, then had a flash of inspiration, and said in a deep voice: "You are those ...... Someone who steals the mining hole?"
In an instant, he subconsciously picked up his mobile phone and wanted to call the police.
"Expert Miao, don't worry. ”
Caught off guard, the man stretched out his hand to stop it, and smiled directly: "We have no malicious intent...... Besides, you've been to the mine too, it's empty, and there's nothing there. ”
"Even if we broke the hole, we didn't get anything out of it. ”
The man spread his hands and said, "It's been a hard work." ”
“…… An attempt to commit a crime is also a crime. ”
Miao Dan said righteously: "I will never be in the same stream as criminals. ”
"Really?"
The man smiled, and suddenly beckoned, and naturally someone handed over a folder.
He opened the document and handed it directly to Miao Dan.
"Take a look. ”
He said seriously: "After reading it, you refuse again...... We didn't say a word, we left immediately. ”
“…… Hmph!"
Miao Dan looked around, a group of burly men, and it was definitely not a wise move to clash with them.
The hero doesn't eat the loss in front of him, he bows his head.
Ten lines at a glance, the expression that I didn't care about suddenly changed color.
"It's ......"
Miao Dan was a little excited, he reached out to pick up the folder and turn the pages.
But at this time, the person who came retracted his hand, closed the documents, and said with a smile: "Expert Miao, how is it...... Interested now, can you talk to us?"
"You ......"
Miao Dan hesitated and fell into a tangle.
"You think about it slowly. ”
The man smiled and casually stuffed a business card into the pocket of Miao Dan's jacket.
This time, Miao Dan did not stop him, but remained silent.
"Think it through, contact me. ”
The man turned and strode away. Behind him, a group of strong men, walking in the same direction, followed briskly.
After they left, a group of students exhaled and were filled with righteous indignation.
"Damn, damn it. ”
"When this is a place, come and go. ”
"Call the police, you must call the police!"
"These bastards, they're definitely bastards, report them ......"
In addition to cursing, several students also carefully observed Miao Dan's face. It's just that at this time, Miao Dan's face was expressionless, his eyes didn't have the slightest focus, and no one knew what he was thinking.
But what is certain is that the information in that folder must be very important.
So much so that Miao Dan couldn't keep his soul.
What is it exactly?
A group of students, very curious.
It's a pity that no one has the guts to ask and inquire.
A few minutes later, Miao Dan seemed to have made a decision, his eyes froze, and he immediately said, "You continue to check the information, I'll go out...... Don't wait for me. ”
"Huh?"
A group of students were stunned, looked at each other, and watched Miao Dan leave.
