The next day, it was just dawn. Walking through the flat land in front of the stone cave, there is a small river in the middle, I didn't see it yesterday, because the small river is among the trees and weeds, I looked for a while, and found a stone arch bridge before crossing the river. In the cracks in the stones above the stone arch bridge, the weeds are knee-high, and the trees at the head of the bridge are already towering trees.

Qin Zhengyuan and Wuyang were in a group, with a big knife on their backs, and when they encountered thorns blocking the way, they went down with a knife. After eating lunch on the way, the two switched over, and Wuyang was responsible for opening the way. Although there is still no road, there are many fewer thorns.

"Master, I saw water birds flying, and there might be a lake on the other side of the mountain."

"It's okay, we're going to get there anyway."

"That's not what I meant. If there is a lake, you will definitely have to take a detour, and you don't know when you will be able to return to the cave. ”

"It's okay, it's just that I don't sleep at night, I used to do it a lot."

"Master, you don't play mahjong, do you?"

"If you don't fight, you are also looking for ore veins in the mountains and selecting wool in the wool yard."

"That's hard enough."

"Actually, it's nothing, it's easy to pass. What has passed has become a good memory. ”

"The master can also read poetry."

At four o'clock in the afternoon, when they arrived at the original meeting place, Zhu Qibin and Cai Limin had not yet arrived. The two drank some wine, ate something, and rested for a while, Qin Zhengyuan took out a map and theodolite and measured it, "Master, this is the border line, we were walking on the land of another country just now." ”

"It's okay, we didn't find the vein just now, we just don't leave in the future. Even if you have to leave, it's fine, border people. Who calculates the national border so accurately? ”

"It's fine. I didn't even see the boundary marker just now. This deep mountain and old forest. Even drug dealers are afraid to come. ”

Seeing Zhu Qibin and them coming from a distance, he raised his hands and set off.

I walked on the zigzag road for two hours, and if it was in the east, it was dark, and the sun was still hanging in the sky, and it might take another hour to set.

At the top of the hill, you can see a large lake in front of you, and you can't see the other side at all. Descending to the lake, Wuyang decided to cut wood to make a wooden raft. Flying up the big knife, cut down more than a dozen trees with a diameter of more than 30 centimeters, Wuyang went to cut the rattan, tied the wooden rafts, and made a turret to install it, pushed it into the water and set off.

When I saw the water, I didn't take a shower last night, and I felt itchy on my body. "Zhengyuan, you come to shake the oar. I'll take a shower and you'll come back later. ”

Qin Zhengyuan said: "Master." In such an inaccessible place, the land is full of dangers, let alone in the water, so don't go into the water, just wipe it with a wet towel. ”

"Don't be afraid, our martial arts practitioners are deaf and clear-sighted, and if there is a change, just hurry up and go to the row."

After swimming in the water for a while, he heard a strange noise, and Qin Zhengyuan also shouted on the platoon: "Master, come up quickly, there are monsters." ”

Wuyang hurriedly climbed up, but his foot was still bitten. Put on your clothes and hurry up to heal your wounds.

"Master, what is it?"

"Judging from the bite force and the lack of deep wounds, it should be a catfish, but this catfish can bite the sole of a foot in one bite, so it should be very large. Look, it's still coveting me, and I'm trying to catch it. ”

"How can I catch a fish without a hook and line?"

"Isn't there a hook on that rope, we use beef jerky as bait, it's fun, and we don't have to catch it."

First tie the rope one end on the wooden raft so that the fish does not get too big and be pulled into the water, and then select a few large pieces of beef jerky to hang on the hook and throw them into the water.

Feeling the force of the rope being pulled, immediately pull it, and the hook may be hooked. With Wuyang's reaction ability, before he could react, the rope was pulled away a lot, and it was all straightened after a while. If it is not properly tied, either the person falls into the water, or the rope is pulled away.

The wooden raft was pulled by the fish and ran in the direction of the lake, and in the afternoon sun they were going to go in a straight line, due north, and now they were going in the northeast direction. Wuyang tried to pull the rope, and the fish walked in the direction they needed. As long as there is a deviation, the afternoon sun pulls again. Now Qin Zhengyuan doesn't have to shake the oar, as long as he grasps the wooden row and doesn't fall into the water.

The fish pulled the wooden raft, but the speed was still very fast, and after ten minutes, they could see the opposite shore. After a while, the speed of the fish slowed down, and when it reached the shore, the fish could not swim and gradually surfaced. The two saw a very wide head, a long body, and a long tail.

"Master, this fish is 10 meters long, thousands of catties, right?"

"Probably about the same. You go and swing the oar, we go over it, and the hook is taken out. ”

"I'll shoot it and add vegetables at night."

"Forget it. It took us so far, saved the body, also saved time, helped, let it go. We killed it, and we could cut off up to 20 catties of meat, and the rest was wasted. ”

"You won't waste it, and if you throw it in the lake, you won't give it all to the fish. However, our old family said that such a big guy has become a fine, and it is better not to kill it. Kill him who will be punished. ”

"It was made up by the older generation to maintain the ecological balance. By the way, get the camera out, and we'll use it for publicity in the future. ”

After shooting for a few minutes, it was almost time to reach the shore, and Wuyang shook the rope, there were no barbs on the hook, and it was easy to get off the hook. The fish was still swimming on the surface for two minutes, and it looked like a water monster.

"Master, we forgot about the business, and we didn't look at the bottom of the lake without running the real qi."

"It's okay, just watch it over here. If there is still one here, it will be a big vein. It's a pity that there is no such thing, what is the situation at the bottom of the lake, we don't know, in case of penetration, it will be a big accident. Let's go, I'll get out of the way. ”

The two men chased after the vein, and when they were hungry, they stopped to eat and drink, and at dawn they finally saw the stone cave at the foot of the opposite mountain, and the vein also came to an abrupt end behind a low stone house. There is a small pit in this place, and it is supposed that when the old man was mining stones to build a house, he found beautiful stones and mined them. It's a pity that there was no way to sell jadeite at that time, they were a group of chaotic ministers and thieves, and they didn't dare to see the light, so they could only die in the mountains.

Qin Zhengyuan wanted to cut down the trees on the edge of the pit. The afternoon sun stopped. "Don't cut it. We can't even carry it inside the house, so what are we doing? Let's go to the cave to rest. ”

After eating and drinking the last bit of wine, Qin Zhengyuan came to his senses again. "Master, you rest here, and I'll send a trip to the car."

"Aren't you tired?"

"It's okay, I'm so energetic right now. As long as you run the true qi, you can eliminate fatigue immediately. Isn't it just 10 hours? ”

"Zhengyuan, do you need money?"

"No, now I have more money and a lot of wool. I think that even if you give me shares in the development here, master, I will have a rare trip, and I don't want to see good things, it's not my character. And also. If you sell the money to buy shares, don't use the original money. ”

"It's fine. It's okay to wait here, so why don't I go on a run with you? If you run a few trips, 200 kilograms per trip, you should be able to sell it for a lot of money. Zhengyuan, you can still carry it with Limin next week, it's best to carry gold, silver, and saddles. I want those swords, and I will fill them up in the museum. ”

"Then you take the sword first, and don't ask for the jade. The next time I come, I'll take the saddle and send it to you, and put it in the museum, it's very good. ”

"Okay, then it's hard for you."

"Master, you can't say anything outside of sight."

The two of them sent the jade and the sword to the stone wall several times, and then gathered together and set off on their backs. Because of the work of cutting down thorns when I came, I can go back much faster now, and I will be back to the car in four hours.

During the break, Wuyang called Xiaoya to arrange an RV to come over. If you carry it again, 800 kilograms is enough to crush the shock of any car.

Back at the cave, it was already afternoon. Zhu Qibin: They are still resting. "Big brother, did you really send the jade?"

"Yes, if you don't come, if you don't come, if you don't come, we have to send it first."

"We shouldn't be slow, we basically haven't sat down except for eating along the way."

"How did you cross the lake?"

"We came by shooting bullets through the trees and then making wooden platoons, and it only took us more than eight hours."

"That's right. Qibin, have you found any attractions? ”

"When I went to the outlet of the lake, I saw that the canal was particularly suitable for rafting, just now in the mountains, I saw a lot of wild gastrodia, but unfortunately there was no way to dig it. By the way, further southeast, is it the Daxue Mountain Scenic Area in our city? ”

"Maybe, I didn't care."

Zhu Qibin said: "Then I have a way." ”

"There's a way to go back, hurry up and pack your things and rush back to dinner."

"Okay, I'll clear my mind and report back to you. Big brother, those gold and silver coins in the secret room may have research value, you can bring them back. ”

Wuyang thinks it's right, although these jadeites are very valuable, but there are still such large veins, you can get as many as you can in the future, gold coins and silver coins are rare things, and there is no way to miss them.

He took the woven bag to the secret room and picked up the gold and silver coins. These things were scattered on the ground, what seemed to be a lot, but in fact there were not many, and neither woven bag was full.

Look at those gold ingots, the big ones are 50 taels, the small ones are 5 taels, the number is not very much, think about it, Wu Sangui's subordinates, when they fled for their lives in a panic, it was very good to be able to carry so much, this is still they have been here for decades, and they have not spent it at all. Pick it up and take a look, all of them were made by the Ming Dynasty officials, and I searched through them, but I didn't find a single one from the Qing Dynasty. I don't know if the Qing Dynasty didn't reward them at all, or if it was some other reason.

I loaded those gold ingots again, lifted them up and tried them, that is, a little more than 200 kilograms, the distance was a bit far, and it was not easy to walk, but Baman could still carry it to the car.

A small piece of wood was laid on the ground, and it was removed lightly, and inside was wrapped in brown paper, which were 3 thin thread-bound books, and the covers, which were boxing, swordsmanship, and sticks. Wuyang thought to himself, it is also a martial arts cheat, and the sword book is placed casually, why are these hidden so mysteriously.

Thread-bound books are bound after folding a piece of paper in half, and these books are also like this, the difference is that what I saw before Wuyang was printed, and these 3 books are handwritten, and the exploded view is also hand-drawn. The pictures are not flattering, and the words are written in general, which is very beautiful. When I turned the book, I felt that something was wrong, the paper seemed to be too thick, and there seemed to be paper in it. I didn't have time to take a closer look, so I wrapped it as it was and tucked the T-shirt inside my pants. Then stuff the paper bag into your clothes. The paper package is not thick. Not too visible.

They all carried their belongings onto the stone wall. When he was about to leave, Qin Zhengyuan said: "Master, this big knife should also belong to cultural relics, so I'll give it to you." ”

Zhu Qibin said with a smile: "Don't let you pretend to be so much jadeite, you just don't listen, you can't move your back now, right?" ”

Wuyang said: "Give it to me, you're welcome." Zhengyuan, don't listen to Uncle Shi. You don't take more, tomorrow he will come by helicopter. All moved away. ”

Zhu Qibin said with a smile: "Big brother, it's really a good way to transport it away by helicopter." Tomorrow you can transfer the helicopter. ”

"Forget it, let Zhengyuan and Limin move. The company's helicopters are also in the Aerotropolis and the Northwest too. Let's go. Zhengyuan, you gave me the fishing gear, and my combat kit was left in the car, and there were few things. ”

"Okay, then there's Master Lao. Master, when are you going to mine? ”

Wuyang knew that what he really cared about was how to distribute it. "Yes, these veins were discovered by the four of us. It was divided into four portions. Your uncle and I have a lot of work, so you can take more time to manage it. ”

Zhu Qibin said: "Your master may be transferred, so don't expect him to take care of things." ”

Cai Limin said: "Master, uncle, this must be no problem, the two of us come over often." Master, you have to arrange the specific work. ”

"Good. To mine the veins, you must first build roads. Going straight up and down from here will definitely affect the attraction of the waterfall, and you can't go to the west to Myanmar, so you can only go to the east. When you have time, go to the east and choose the route. It doesn't matter if the route is farther away, try to avoid the attractions as much as possible, and never destroy the attractions, which should also be done when mining. In addition, the road should be widened, at least 6 meters, so that large trucks can meet the car. Qibin, Limin, Zhengyuan, although you are not short of money, but your strength is still worse than mine, and all these expenses must be borne by me. You have spent your time and energy, and that is what you should have spent, and you are not paid. ”

Zhu Qibin said: "It is appropriate not to be paid, but the cost still has to be paid." Big brother, otherwise the two of us will divide it evenly. When we build the highway, we should pay attention to the development and construction of the scenic spot, and after the mining of the ore veins is completed, the highway will be completely handed over to the scenic spot, and the scenic spot should pay some expenses. ”

Wuyang said: "Qi Bin, in this way, there are too many involved, and it is very troublesome, so it is completely unnecessary." It has not yet been decided on the form in which the scenic spot will be developed, but the government will certainly not pay for it. If we were to develop it, we wouldn't have to mention it. ”

Zhu Qibin said: "Big brother, what I said first of all, if you connect this place with the Daxue Mountain Scenic Area, if you connect it with the development of here, things will be easy to do." ”

"Tell me about it now."

"Good. I see that the Daxue Mountain Scenic Area is only about 40 kilometers away from here, and we build a direct road and an irrigation canal between the two scenic spots. Roads and irrigation canals should be built at high ground, and the two ends should be slightly lower than the lake level. The terrain is high, and it is more difficult to build, but it is not difficult to solve, and it is enough to build more culverts, bridges, and air aqueducts, so that all the slopes between the two lakes can be used to grow medicinal herbs. As long as the canal can irrigate the slope of the next two kilometers, there are 120,000 acres that can be planted with medicinal herbs, and if some culverts are drilled, some branch canals and ditches are built, the planting area will be expanded by two or three times. If we adopt the method of government investment and construction, we can rent or sell the land to those who grow medicinal herbs, and if we adopt the method of benefiting from whoever invests, the government only needs to strengthen management, and at least we can solve the employment problem of tens of thousands of laborers. ”

Wuyang said: "The solution is very good, but these slopes are densely forested, and we can't destroy the forest." ”

"Don't destroy the forest. Some local medicinal herbs, such as Panax notoginseng, Eucommia ulmoides, and Gastrodia, must be grown in the woods. Some medicinal herbs cannot be planted continuously, and they can be rotated. Although these medicinal herbs need water, in the forest, in normal years, they do not need to be watered, and only in the year of great drought. ”

Wuyang said with a smile: "Qibin, you are better than me in economic construction." That's the case, you can come up with the plan and plan, and then hire experts to conduct investigation and demonstration, and then discuss it at the Standing Committee, it is best to solicit opinions extensively, and I, you, and Zhong Lan should not speak first and set the tone. It also includes the treatment of the development of scenic spots. ”

Zhu Qibin said: "Big brother, you are developing the city, and I am developing the mountain." If I have done all this well, it will bring more than one billion yuan of income to the villagers every year, which cannot be compared with urban development. However, according to your arrangement, if you want to start construction, it will be at least next year, and you will see the benefits the year after tomorrow. ”

"It's okay to be a year or two late. I'm gone, and the political achievements are yours. ”

"Thank you, big brother. I have to ask you for help if I can take over. ”

Wuyang said: "Don't worry, your father is the secretary." ”

"Big brother, my father, like you, is also an alternate member, and may become a vice governor."

"How is that possible? Don't have any definite news yet? ”

"I don't know, I didn't ask, it's not my turn to care."

"Yes, only the father cares about the son, and no son cares about the father. You're a father now, remember that song, and go home often. ”

"My wife often brings the children home, I'm too busy to win, I can't help it."

Qin Zhengyuan smiled and said: "Uncle Shi, people don't often say that time is like cleavage, and there is always a squeeze. ”

Zhu Qibin said with a smile: "Zhengyuan, you kid has a bit of teacher dignity, okay?" Uncle Shi's jokes also dare to be made. I can't help, but it's okay to help. ”

"Uncle, what are you helping with?"

"One day, I will ask your aunt to tell your wife that you have an unusual relationship with that person and someone, and let your backyard catch fire."

Wuyang said, "Stop, we're here." ”

Cai Limin said: "Master, my skills are still much worse. I didn't see anything, you can see clearly. ”

Zhu Qibin said: "There are still 5 or 600 meters, and I can barely see clearly." Big brother, this is your RV, right? I'm going to buy it too. ”

"Buy, a piece of jade in this woven bag, you can change to an RV."

"Big brother, you have to give Zhong Lan a few pieces when you go back, right?"

"You don't care." (To be continued......)
