Qin Hanzhen and Zhao Mo analyzed with great interest, and the table typed more than a dozen pages, of which six or seven pages were densely packed. Qin Jian didn't come back for a long time, and they were happy to discuss it by themselves. Qin Hanzhen felt that there was nothing wrong with her cousin's absence, she had always been unrestrained when she talked to Zhao Mo, no one was listening, and she had less worries, and her words could be a little bolder.

Of course, not in terms of romance. They were really serious about serious political topics.

As for the discussion process, Zhao Mo would occasionally interject a few words that made people blush, or get closer to Qin Hanzhen, to feel the breath of the girl's breath and slightly hot body temperature, and to appreciate Qin Hanzhen's beautiful appearance when his cheeks were crimson, that was another matter.

Qin Hanzhen didn't know how many times he poked him, and tried to keep the content of the conversation on the topic. However, it was a little difficult for them to continue their discussion.

The two county kings of Ninghua and Guangchang, they don't know much, and some of the news they know is not rumors in the clan, or what Qin Hanzhen heard when he was in Jin in the past. As for how the two brothers fared in the fiefdom and whether they had enough financial strength to support King Ninghua's ambitions, they didn't know anything about it, and they couldn't make a judgment with a higher accuracy rate.

Qin Hanzhen wrote a note on the side of their table, saying that he wanted to inquire about the economic development level and military strength of Ninghua and Guangchang, and even the news of grain production and mineral resources. When the three of them left the Jin land, they also had to find out how much property they had taken away from the original Jin Palace. King Ninghua wants to pass his son to the East Palace, of course, it is impossible to rely on only a few allies to be lobbyists, and the financial and material resources required are by no means small. The economic base determines the superstructure, and if he does not have enough financial resources, he is doomed to just a pipe dream.

The same is true of the situation in the Shu Palace. Shu is too far away from the capital, and the relevant information that Qin Hanzhen and Zhao Mo can get is very trivial. Moreover, the Shu Wangfu can now be said to have lost control of Shu, except for a little girl under the age of three and the maidservant waiting beside her, the whole family is confined and has no freedom of movement, and can not do anything at all. If they really participated in the actions of King Ninghua and his group, it would not be strange, and the reason was even more obvious. But they must always have the ability to help King Ninghua, right? It can't just rely on a child and the nurse and maid by her side. If you just want to install an undercover agent in Cining Palace, it doesn't have to be someone from the Shu Palace. Do they have any unknown hole cards left?

Qin Hanzhen took the tables of these palaces, looked left and right, and couldn't help but sigh.

Need to collect more information...... Although Zhao Mo would complain to the prince and remind him to pay attention to other people's ill-intentioned intentions, she was not a person who pushed out the mystery and did nothing. If she can, she will still collect more information and make her own inferences. The results of the inference, she would ask her grandfather or Zhao Mo to convey them to the emperor and the crown prince for their reference. Whether it can help them or not, it is also her heart.

On the side of Ninghua and Guangchang, it may be that Zhao Mo's caravan is more likely to go to the local area to inquire about useful news. But in Shu, her great-grandmother, Mrs. Ye's maiden home, is in Shuzhong, and her grandfather Qin Bai only visited her relatives last year. If you write to inquire or send someone to visit, you should be able to find more reliable information. As for how much money King Ninghua and King Guangchang and their mother, the concubine of the former Jin Dynasty, took out from the Jin Dynasty, she felt that she could let Datong's uncle and Zhang's mother family think of a way. No matter how much property the former Jin king's concubines, mother and son took away openly and secretly, they will definitely have to find someone to carry their luggage when they leave the Jin land. With the successive accidents in the Jin Palace, there must be many people who still remember the situation when they left.

Qin Hanzhen wrote down these points one by one, and saw Zhao Mo coming over again out of the corner of his eye, and stretched out his left hand angrily, and gently pushed his face back: "Cousin Zhao, don't get so close, this is outside!"

Zhao Mo paused, and asked her with a smile: "Then what if I am not outside, can I get close to you?"

Qin Hanzhen looked at him speechlessly. After being teased a few times, she already has some immunity, and she is an adult anyway. She glared at Zhao Mo angrily and said, "Don't say some nonsense and frivolous things here! If people hear it, not only will it affect your reputation and mine, but my grandfather will be very disappointed in you! You have been studying with him for a few years, but now you don't study well." What do you think he's going to think of you in the future?!"

Zhao Mo's face changed, he retracted his hand, sat upright, and said solemnly: "Don't get me wrong, cousin, I'm just curious about what you wrote on the paper, and I didn't pay attention for a while, it was my negligence." I'll give you compensation, right? But what do you mean by what you just wrote? If you want to inquire about the property of the two county kings of Ninghua and Guangchang, I understand your intentions; I can also understand the number of troops and grain production in their fiefdoms; but why should you inquire about the minerals? Ninghua has always been famous for porcelain and tribute rice, and there are also papermakers, but there are no gold or silver mines. Guangchang should not have either. ”

Qin Han really thought, how could there be not? Ninghua porcelain is famous, but Guangchang produces more than one non-metallic material for making ceramics, and the output of spodumene, diatomaceous earth and kaolin is not low. Of course, these resources did not have much significance for Zhao Yan, the king of Ninghua, unless he planned to use ceramic products to slowly make a business and make money.

She said to Zhao Mo: "Mineral resources are also very important, if it is gold and silver mines, it may bring a lot of wealth to King Ninghua." If it's a copper mine, then you have to beware that he will mint copper coins privately. If it's iron ore, it's even worse, you can directly use it to forge weapons!"

Zhao Mo raised his eyebrows and was silent for a while before saying, "Shudi...... There are also salt wells, and the salt produced can be sold for a lot of money. Could it be that this is the reason why King Ninghua and the Shu Wangfu may collude? But the Shu Wang's family is now confined, and the Yanjing Iron Mine under the name of the Wangfu has been handed over to the court officials for management. What's the use of King Ninghua asking them to cooperate?"

Of course, there are iron ores in Shudi. It's a pity that the ancients of this era didn't know. Qin Hanzhen only knew that Panzhihua was famous, but if she wanted to say what the name of this Panzhihua City was in this era, she couldn't say.

Qin Hanzhen smiled: "How do you know that the Shu Wangfu family has really explained everything? Maybe they have hidden a few mines, secretly excavated, and left them as a back road, and it is unknown." Even if they are limited in their movement and do not have access to these properties, they can trade with others and exchange ownership of those mines for something more beneficial to them. ”

Zhao Mo disagreed: "This kind of thing is a mine, you can't take it away, you can't move it." If there really is such a place in Shudi, as long as the government refuses to nod, who can dig minerals privately?"

However, when he said this, he paused again: "The southwest border army under the Zhenxi Hou Mansion ...... When the imperial court ordered people to escort the family of the prince of Shu to Beijing, because it was worried that the king of Shu had been operating in Shu for a long time, the tail would not be lost, and there would be die-hard people who would make trouble, so they specially changed the southwest border army and the garrison in Shuzhong. But not long after the southwest border army settled in Shuzhong, Zhenxi Hou's father and son were recalled to Beijing. Could it be that this is the reason why King Ninghua will find the Marquis of Zhenxi? Even though the father and son of the Su family have left the southwest, their prestige in the southwest army is unmatched. If the Marquis of Zhenxi nodded and was willing to cooperate with the King of Ninghua and the King of Shu, many problems could be solved. ”

Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but snort: "These losers are really persistent, they didn't succeed in calculating people before, and now they simply form an alliance of losers to disgust people!"

As if he hadn't heard it, Zhao Mo looked at the few new keywords on her paper, smiled slightly, and said to her, "Let's get here first today." Brother Jian has been gone for a long time and hasn't returned, could it be that he went to the temple fair again?"

As they were talking, Zhao Mo and Qin Hanzhen heard a commotion in the courtyard outside, but it was the Lu family brothers who came back, and brought the mother-in-law who had been sent out to buy the souvenirs that the girls and masters liked before.

Lu Chuliang happily walked in the direction of the main house: "Cousin Qin, come and see what we have bought?!"

Qin Hanzhen looked back and saw that there were only two people in the room, she and Zhao Mo were the only two in the room, she hurriedly got up and put away all the writing papers, stuffed them into her sleeve pockets, and then quickly walked to the side of the Dongjijian kang and sat down. At this time, the door of the outer room opened, and Lu Chuliang ran in. Seeing that only Zhao Mo was there, he was still a little surprised: "Where is Cousin Qin, why is he not here?"

Zhao Mo smiled at him generously: "Brother Jian just went to see his sister, you might as well go to the wing room and ask." ”

Lu Chuliang smirked, and saw that Qin Hanzhen was leaning on the pillow in the middle to close his eyes and recuperate, and hurriedly lowered his voice: "Third cousin, is this asleep? Why didn't the prince of the county say it earlier? I knew that I just spoke quietly, don't disturb her rest." Then he crept out the door.

As soon as he went out, he met Qin Jian who turned back from outside.

When Qin Jian saw Lu Chuliang, he was a little nervous at first, but when he saw Zhao Mo's smiling appearance, he calmed down, glared at him secretly, and then turned to Lu Chuliang and said, "What good things you bought, you don't have to look at them here." Tell someone to tidy it up and take it home first. When you're free, you can watch it for as long as you want. ”

Lu Chuliang smiled and agreed loudly, but immediately covered his mouth again, and carefully glanced in the direction of Dongjima before going lightly.

However, the sound of his voice had already alarmed the two girls who were originally taking a nap in the wing room, and Lu Yueniang also came out of the wing room, helped the younger brothers count the items, and instructed the mother-in-law to load the things into the car. was busy, Qin Jinhua pulled Qin Jinrong, who yawned non-stop, and went back to the main house.

Qin Jinrong was confused, muttering something "to sleep". Qin Jinhua couldn't help but say to Qin Hanzhen: "Look at her lazy appearance! Before eating, she was still clamoring that she wanted to go shopping again, where do you remember it now?"

Qin Hanzhen smiled, thinking that Zhao Mo still needed to go to the East Palace to complain, so he said: "It's not too early, the fifth sister is trapped like this, why don't you go back?"

Qin Jinhua didn't object, so he went to tell Qin Jian. Qin Jian nodded, and she hurriedly went to inform the others.

Qin Hanzhen glanced at Zhao Mo before he said to Qin Jian: "Brother Lobby, I discussed a lot of things with Cousin Zhao just now, but you didn't hear it." If you're still interested, pick a time to come back to me when you get home. ”

Qin Jian was extremely surprised: "You guys just discussed a lot of things?!"

Zhao Mo lowered his head and smiled. Qin Hanzhen looked at Qin Jian inexplicably: "Of course, it's been so long!" she pinched the position of her sleeve pocket, "Look, it's such a big stack of papers! It's enough for us to talk for a long time." When you've seen the news above, remember to do your part too. That's a big deal!"

Qin Jian's expression was indescribable.
