Human life is like a mustard!

Once upon a time, for Shi Yiwen, this was just words, and he could experience it literally, but now, after witnessing Zhao Mingchuan's death and his father's "suicide in fear of sin", Shi Yiwen has a full understanding.

"Young master, let's go back!"

Looking at the decapitated corpse on the ground, Liu Yu said in horror.

"Why are you leaving?"

Sneering, Shi Yiwen didn't even glance at the corpse on the ground, and said to Li Feng.

"Brother Li, Brother Cheng, Brother Fang, thanks to the three of you, this love is inherited."

The fact that the three coal blacks did not run away was really beyond his expectations.

Even if it is a promise of heavy profits, but human favors always have to be inherited.

"Childe is polite, just now, to be honest just now, I was also scared,"

Li Feng only found that his palms were sweating, he was also scared just now, if it wasn't for the fact that he didn't escape, I'm afraid he would have fled a long time ago.

"Liu Yu, give Brother Li twenty taels of silver for each of them, and invite the brothers to drink."

"This, this and that."

"Why can't I do it, this is to Mentougou, and I have to rely on a few brothers."

Words of gratitude have to be said, of course, you can't just say it, the simplest thank you is silver.

"Besides, the mountain is high and the road is dangerous, and when the time comes, you have to rely on a few brothers."

"Oh, this, how is this a good ......"

Li Feng looked at the two beside him, he knew the truth of taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people, and after taking the silver, he immediately said with a straight face.

"Don't worry, when you get to Mentougou, the younger ones will go to Zhangluo and a few brothers, and they will definitely protect Gongzi."

Dealing with people who understand is always very simple, and this bit of silver is a thank you, and it is also a buyer.

"In this way, there will be Brother Lao Li."

When he continued to walk towards the Mentougou Coal Mine, Shi Yiwen's expression was extremely solemn, the reason why he did not go out of the mountain was because it was very close to the coal mine, and when he got there, there were more than thousands of people in those small coal mines...... If you promise heavy profits, you can always keep safe, but what if someone sets up an ambush on the way back?

"It's still too negligent."

Talking to himself in his heart, Shi Yiwen naturally thought of why those young men and evil boys in film and television dramas would take a few dog legs with them, no matter how useful the dog legs are, they can last for a while when they encounter things, and some people can send a letter home.

It seems that I will have to bring my family with me next time I come out.

However, it's not enough to just take the family with you, those family members also have to have good weapons, and they have to dare to fight hard.

Thinking like this in his heart, Shi Yiwen even moved his mind to those coal blacks, whether they were driving mules or digging coal in the mine, they were all fighting for money with their lives, since this is the case, then you might as well use them, it seems that Qi Jiguang's first batch of people are also miners.

Thinking so in their hearts, the group arrived at Mentougou, and when they went to the mine, they saw a few abandoned mines along the way, and Shi Yiwen asked directly.

"Brother Li, why is there no one on these kilns?"

"Hui Gongzi, these are waste kilns, you see, this square garden is a few miles, almost all of them are such waste pits, they are all digging coal and digging coal, and they can't dig it when they encounter water, so they can only choose another place to dig again, to be honest, it is not easy for coal blacks, and it is not easy for the owner of the kiln to exchange their lives for money, but if God doesn't open his eyes, maybe the mine that the owner has just opened will be permeable, and when the time comes, the chickens and eggs will be beaten, and they will all lose money......"

Because he felt that the identity of the person next to him was not ordinary, Li Feng's words were full of compliments, and even the owner of the mine was complimented together, and his words only made the two people around him pout. Fang Hu muttered softly, "I have half a bowl of porridge at home, and I don't go to Mentougou." ”。

"Oh, so what does the owner of this coal kiln do?"

Shi Yiwen asked curiously.

"There are all kinds of things, in the early years, there were domestic slaves of the dignitaries and nobles in the capital, they thought that they would open a kiln to make money, but they never thought that this kiln was not as easy as they thought, this kiln was dug and dug back, two or three years of hard work, and then saw the water, and the kiln was abandoned, and then reopened in another place, earning and earning, all year round it is dozens of taels of silver, not to mention the dignitaries, even if they are a house slave, they can't look down on this bit of silver."

The dignitaries looked down on it, and Shi Yiwen's eyebrows raised.

"Oh, it's not, son, digging coal doesn't make money, it's the new kiln opened by the Xu family, and there are four or five thousand catties of coal a day, and there are a lot of coal, but it's not worth much, just like we pull 100 catties, the kiln price is only 50 Wen, and 100 catties of broken coal are only 30 Wen. "There is no way to come to the coal black, even if it is the kiln owner, there is no way to ......"

Wow, you don't make money by opening a coal kiln!

This statement is really fresh, if it weren't for the fact that he saw so many abandoned kilns along the way, Shi Yiwen really doubted this statement.

But then, in the kiln, listening to the complaints of the kiln owner, he no longer doubted it.

"Childe, you see, just such a coal kiln, at most 5,000 catties of coal a day, you can earn ten taels of silver a day, but let's calculate, just the wages of more than 20 people have to be deducted more than three taels, so calculated, can you earn six taels of silver a day? But Son, the things in this mine are all ours, and we have to use wood to top the beams, and the left and right buckles are deducted, and there are at most four or five taels left a day, and we look at making money, right? ”

Xu Mao looked up at the sky, and when he saw the dark clouds in the sky, his brows furrowed again.

"But the kiln also depends on the sky to eat, and it has to stop when it rains, in case the kiln is permeable, and people are buried in it, not only the silver earned in a few years has to be smashed in, but even people have to follow the lawsuit, a year is counted, and it has to be stopped for thirty or fifty days, and then, this kiln may not be able to produce 5,000 catties of coal every day, sometimes it is more than 3,000 catties, and it would be good to have a 4,000 catties, oh yes, you have to pay taxes, taxes are paid for coal, and you have to be a good piece of coal, and you have to transport it to the city to pay, like my mine, I have to pay 170 pounds a day, which is 200 yuan......"

After saying this, Xu Mao picked up the cigarette pouch and smoked, although the tobacco has not been introduced to the Ming Dynasty for decades, it has spread to the north, but ordinary people probably can't afford to smoke it.

"The two acres of land I bought, not more than 100 taels of expensive, it cost less than 200 taels before and after opening a new kiln, God bless, if you can open it for two years, you can almost earn more than 1,000 taels of silver, but this kiln is long and short, there is no coal on the veins, it is impervious to water, it all depends on luck, look at the son to tell the truth, but where there is a way, who will come to this place."

Looking at Xu Mao, Shi Yiwen smiled.

"Then what if I pay 1,500 taels to buy your kiln?"
