Xia Shuai was very satisfied with Zhang Junping's answer.

Having a subordinate with a deep background is a very annoying thing for the boss, but if this subordinate with a deep background is very sensible, then it is a different matter.

"Sun Dutou, you go and make arrangements, send some food and wine to the soldiers of the forbidden army outside the city, and comfort the soldiers of the forbidden army!" Zhang Junping called Sun Xu and instructed him.

The food and wine to comfort the soldiers of the forbidden army and the horses naturally do not need to be out of the office.

Zhang Junping was reluctant to seek the near and far, and specially called Sun Xu from outside the city, so that he could communicate with the ten major families.

I believe that Sun Xu can figure this out.

The horse soldiers of the forbidden army did not enter the city, although only a battalion of four hundred horses came.

However, the entry of so many soldiers into the city is also a great pressure on the county.

The soldiers in ancient times were not like the People's Liberation Army of later generations, the odds were strict, they did not take a stitch from the masses, and many soldiers took off their armor and were bandits.

Like Yanzhou Mansion, the robbery of the forbidden army pretending to be bandits is not an isolated case.

To protect their families and defend the country, they are indeed fighting with their lives, but they are not merciful at all when they rob and plunder people's property.

Zhang Junping held a banquet in Wanghai Pavilion to entertain Xia Shuai's envoys, Han Tong's judgment, and Li Zhuan's envoys.

The head of the top ten families was also called by Zhang Junping to accompany him.

"Envoy Li, envoy Xia Shuai, and Han Tongjuan, this is our Dunhou elder in Muping County!

They are all scholars, people who read poetry and books, and there are many children in the family who are officials outside! Zhang Junping introduced the heads of the ten major families to the three Shangguan.

"This time, the gold and silver mines can be successfully seized, thanks to their help!"

"Ashamed, ashamed, how dare we praise Lao Zhi County?

At the beginning of his tenure, the magistrate did several great things for my Muping County, although we were old and dizzy, but I knew in my heart that the magistrate was a good official who asked for the people's life!

We are naturally willing to help the county! Obey the call of the magistrate! The head of the Li family also touted Zhang Junping.

Envoy Li Zhuan and Han Tongju both looked at Zhang Junping with some curiosity and looked at them fiercely.

They all know that Zhang Junping has only been in office for less than ten days.

In just ten days, the ten major families were actually cleaned up and obeyed, which is not ordinary.

Looking at Zhang Junping's modest smiling face, the two of them thought with great certainty that this son would be extraordinary in the future, and there would be only a prime minister.

I also secretly decided in my heart to turn around and say a few more good words for Zhang Junping on the recital.

After eating, Zhang Junping did not send them back to the post station, but directly arranged to live in Wanghai Pavilion.

Wanghai Pavilion is not only a restaurant for eating, but also a place to stay in the backyard.

The small courtyards are countless times better than the conditions of the post station.

The post station in Muping County is old and in disrepair, and it is not much better than an ordinary inn.

The next day, after breakfast, Xia Shuai and others urged them to go to the Wuclaw Mountain Gold Mine to check the situation, so as to report to the imperial court in the morning.

At this time, the infantry of the forbidden army, which was originally lagging behind, also rushed to Muping County.

A group of more than 1,000 soldiers came to the foot of Wuclaw Mountain.

The river is also called the river of Jinshui, because of the occasional person who can pick up gold by the river in the upper reaches of this river.

Ordinary people, hearing this news, can only sigh, people who pick up gold, good luck, good fortune.

People with a heart like the Ten Great Families think differently.

If a person picks up gold, it may be lost by someone else.

One after another, people have picked up gold, so there is a saying.

After the inspection of the ancestors of the ten families, a number of gold mines were finally discovered in the depths of the Five Talon Mountains.

Under the leadership of the ten families, Zhang Junping and Xia Shuai came to the Wuzha Mountain Gold Mine.

Under a towering cliff, there are dozens of dilapidated wooden houses scattered around.

On the mountain wall, there is a dark cave.

The gurgling stream flows out of the cave and joins with other streams to flow out of Mount Five Claw.

This is one of the sources of the Mishui River.

The river is formed by the collection of water from the many springs of Mount Goclaw.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Five Tallaw Mountain Gold Mine!

The gold mine is in the cave! The children of the Li family, who were disguised as officials, pointed to the cave and said, "These wooden houses are left by those bandits!"

Thanks to the county magistrate, the big man found out the thief's cattiness, otherwise this mountain would have to be hollowed out by them! ”

Zhang Junping looked at a child of the Li family who pretended to be a servant, this is a talent.

Looking at his indignant appearance, people who don't know the truth think that he is really angry with the bandits for stealing gold mines.

"Envoy Li, Envoy Xia Shuai, do you want to go in and take a look?

We've only seen gold before, but we haven't seen how gold is mined and how it turns from gold into gold! Zhang Junping smiled and invited the three Shangguan into the cave.

"I'm also a little curious for you to say that, so let's go in and have a look?" Li Zhuanenvoy said with a smile.

Here his status is the highest, he speaks, naturally no one objects.

"Li Dutou, is there danger inside?" For the sake of safety, Zhang Junping asked again.

"Back to the county lord, there is a natural karst cave inside, there is no danger!"

The group carried torches and walked into the cave.

Under the light of the fire, you can see from time to time that something on the walls of the cave and in the stream glows golden.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the golden light in the river is the golden sand!

Collect these golden sands, smelt them, and they become gold! ”

"Li Dutou knows a lot?" Han Tongju suddenly spoke.

"This ...... Back to the eldest master, before the trust of the eldest lord of Mengzhi County, he was handed over to the small one to be responsible for this matter, so he specially made some understanding! ”

Zhang Junping shook his head secretly, this son of the Li family is clever and reacts quickly, but unfortunately, there are a lot of words.

"You guy, you will be a fool, the three Shangguan, although you have never seen gold mining, but there is nothing in the book?

The gold mining and smelting recorded in the book are not as detailed as you know?

Hugh is going to get an axe here! Zhang Junping scolded with a smile.

Got the matter to light.

"Huh?!" After walking a short distance, Xia Shuai bent down to pick up a palm-sized stone from the stream that shimmered with golden light.

"This is the gold mine?"

"Congratulations to Xia Shuai, this should be natural gold, also known as horseshoe gold!

It is said that horseshoe gold can only be picked up by those who are deeply blessed! Zhang Junping leaned over to take a look and congratulated with a smile.

"Oh?! In this way, this official is still a person with deep blessings? ”

"That's nature!

Xia Shuai has been fighting for more than ten years, participated in hundreds of large and small battles, killed countless enemies, and made great achievements, but he was never injured!

Isn't this a blessing, how can you explain it? A commander of the forbidden army complimented Xia Shuai on the side.

"Ah...... Hahaha! You're right, this official is really a person with profound blessings! Xia Shuai laughed heartily.
