"Master Hou, will you lock me up?" The fat on Guo Fatzi's face trembled, and he said pleadingly.

This fat man climbed up from the bottom of society, and he knew how to live better. Now that the prison has become the safest place, not to mention, the black cauldron of leaks can be thrown on Jiang Wei.

"This kid doesn't seem to be so hateful." Gai Nie said to Li Chen.

Guo Yu is just a small miscellaneous fish in the big pool of Daqin officialdom. While eating some dried shrimp, he also had to be careful not to be eaten by the big fish.

Time passed moment by moment, and Jiang Wei was waiting outside in a hurry. Of the three people who went in together, he was the only one who came out intact. This TM seems to be a little difficult to explain, it's really yellow mud falling into the crotch of the pants, it's not but is......

"Master Hou, what about Steward Wang and Guo Langzhong?"

Seeing Li Chen walking out with Zhao Que and Gai Nie, Jiang Wei's heart was a little furious.

"Hmph."

"Not to mention the rest of the cases, the evidence of the stake driving has been conclusive, and Guo Langzhong thinks that Ben Hou is detaining people for no reason." Li Chen sneered and said coldly.

"Steward Wang naturally deserves death for his crimes, but he shouldn't detain Lord Guo, right?" A glimmer of light flashed in Jiang Wei's eyes, and he pretended to be calm. This trick to abandon the car to protect the handsome is already Jiang Wei's last resort, and the Wang Steward will die if the businessman dies, but Guo Fatzi must be saved. This kid is cowardly, but I'm afraid he won't last long.

It's just that Jiang Wei never expected that this friend he wanted to rescue had already sold him for a good price.

"What do you say is in this mountain, the Wang family would rather go to drive piles than divert the project." Li Chen pondered.

"There must be something in the mountain that can't be seen, search, this mountain is not big, it will definitely be able to be searched." Zhao Que said. Searching the mountains is the stupidest way, but it is also the most effective way.

"The jade pendant that His Majesty rewarded the Hou Ye was lost, everyone went to the mountain to look for it, and the Hou Ye who found it was rewarded with 100 gold." Zhao Que commanded his subordinates.

The loss of the jade pendant is naturally just to cover people's eyes and ears, and to find a reason for searching the mountain. Li Chen and others guessed that Jiang Wei didn't know the hidden situation in the mountain, and the Wang family and others who knew the hidden situation had all been controlled by Zhao Que.

On the Black Ice Terrace, the Hanging Mirror Banner Envoy began a carpet search of the East Mountain. This Dongshan is not big, but it is not small. If you hide something on weekdays, no one will find it inadvertently. But if you really want to investigate, you can't hide it.

"Master Hou, there are holes." At this time, someone shouted on the mountainside.

I saw that halfway up the mountainside, there was a circular robbery hole the size of a wellhead hidden behind a boulder. The cave is well hidden, and the entrance is covered with turf of blue, so it is not easy to find without careful exploration.

The entrance to this cave is swarthy, and you can't see the bottom at a glance, and what comes into your eyes is a void. Men don't seem to be resistant to any swarthy holes, they have a natural curiosity about this kind of thing, and exploring black holes seems to be engraved in men's bones.

"There's a big tomb down there." Looking at this thing like a thief hole, Li Chen muttered to himself in his heart.

"Master Hou, I'll go down and have a look first." Ganie said as he tied a rope around his body.

For unknown black holes, the first one to go down is often to see blood. Among all the people, Gai Nie's kung fu is the best. In case of any emergency in the cave, it is also convenient to deal with.

"Put, put, put."

The rope was lowered little by little, and no one dared to go down to the bottom of the unknown black hole at one time. The hole was very deep, and the rope did not move for a long time. Come to think of it, it should be that Gai Nie has reached the bottom.

The rope didn't move, it should have been Gai Nie who had untied the rope and explored the hole. The hearts of the people beside the entrance of the cave were like those scratched by cats. Everyone stared at the entrance of the cave, waiting for Gai Nie to come out, and everyone rushed in to satisfy their curiosity.

Gai Nie went to the very bottom, only to realize that this was not a thief hole at all. This appears to be a mine hole, and the vertical corridor is connected to the horizontal corridor. Take out the fire fold on your waist, and take advantage of the firelight to vaguely see the surrounding walls and Shanghai with miner's lamps. Gai Nie lit the miner's lamp, and the surrounding scene came into view.

It's a mine, and it's a bronze mine. Bronze can be said to be a vital strategic material for Daqin, whether it is to cast coins or weapons, bronze seems to be inevitable.

The people who were anxiously waiting above suddenly saw the rope tremble a few times, which was the code that Gai Nie had finished exploring and asked everyone to pull him up.

"Master Hou, there's a mine down there, a copper mine." As soon as Gai Nie came up, he said in Li Chen's ear.

"Keep the entrance of the cave in check, and no one can go in."

"Zhao Que, go find a professional team." Li Chen ordered.

Since it has been determined that it is a copper mine, it is necessary for professionals to identify the copper content of the mine in order to facilitate the analysis of Wang's intentions.

The efficiency of the Hanging Mirror Division was absolutely reliable, and within a few hours, the files of the entire mine had been recorded. It's a bonanza, and the entire mine contains more than 70 percent copper, which means that two-thirds of the mountain is made up of copper. Unfortunately, this copper mine has obviously been mined for a long time, and now there is not one copper mine left. The entire Dongshan, like a hornet's nest, has been dug into a hollow. This is also the reason why Wang is resolutely reluctant to divert the tunnel, the rest of the mountain is empty, and the diversion will expose everything.

"Master Hou, Dongshan Village's death is not accidental. If my guess is correct, all the villagers of Dongshan should be involved in the mining of ore. The poisoning was not discovered because of the stake, but for the purpose of extinguishing the mouth. Zhao Que said.

"Is there any evidence?" Li Chen asked. Speculation can be a clue to the case, but to make the case an ironclad case, what is needed is not reasoning, but evidence.

"Although the scene in the village has been processed, this one was found in a hidden place." Zhao Que handed Li Chen a piece of copper ore the size of a little thumb, which was obviously hidden by the villagers.

Not to mention this secretly mined mine, even the official copper mine cannot stop the migrant workers from stealing the ore. Although the government has used a lot of means to prevent people from investing in mines, cats have cats and mice.

The most common way to store ore is to stuff crushed ore into holes in the body, and in order to prevent this way of mining, all mines rarely use female migrant workers. And when this method does not work, someone swallows the crushed ore in their stomachs, goes home and eats a large amount of croton, and pulls the crushed ore out. There are also ruthless people who cut holes in their bodies and hide the broken minerals in their wounds.

In short, these people don't want to die for money.
