Chapter 304: News of the Gold Mine
Under the harmony of yin and yang, Wang Teng's anger was swept away. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Whether it was the subordinates in the mansion or the generals in the army, they were obviously aware of Wang Teng's changes.
"The guerrilla master is twenty-one years old, and it is time to marry and have children"
"Who says it's not, it's a pity that adults have too high a vision and have been unwilling to do happy events."
……
Although the Wuyunzhu of the Chahar nationality is quite popular with Wang Teng, however, the customs of the Han people are here, and Wang Teng cannot accept the Wuyunzhu as his wife.
Two years ago, when Wang Teng was only inspecting the nine products, matchmakers from all over the country came one after another, and they all wanted to ask for some color.
It's a pity that Wang Teng has no love for women with small feet, and the so-called ladies can't be on the stage.
Compared with the shyness of the Ming people, the dark cloud beads who dare to love and hate are more loved by Wang Teng.
However, outsiders don't know that Wang Teng has unique preferences, and they still have the idea of marriage.
Now, Wang Teng has been promoted to the fourth rank guerrilla, and he has intersected with Wang Pu, the general soldier of Datong, and Wei Yuan, the governor of Ulzhou, and it is rumored that the governor of Xuanda strongly recommended Wang Teng to be promoted to the general of Shanxi Pingyu!
The general is a third-grade official, if it can really be done, Wang Teng will become a miracle in the Ming officialdom!
With such a golden beetle son-in-law, many generals and clans want to marry him.
When Guangling City was in ruins, the wealthy families from all over the country asked for acquaintances and wanted to contact Wang Teng.
It's just that it's not easy to express the idea of marriage without falling into the hands of others.
Wang Teng naturally didn't expect that he had become a sweet and sweet spot in the eyes of various clans, and after a tryst with Wuyunzhu, he had a smooth mind and no longer looked like he had nowhere to start.
To rebuild Guangling City, it is impossible to do it without silver.
Although Wang Teng has a little savings, if he is allowed to rebuild the city by himself, it will be a little difficult.
Until the right owner appears, you have to think about making more money.
Glass? It's worth considering, but first you need to find the right clay and create enough high temperatures, because if you don't control the heat, the glass will be brittle and difficult to use.
Come to think of it, or soap is easy to make.
At this time, the detergents that can be counted are: rice washing water, plant ash, and soapcorn. Rice washing water is mostly used for bathing, plant ash is used to wash clothes, and soaphorn can be used for both washing clothes and bathing.
It is recorded in Shennong's Materia Medica, the so-called soap horn, is the honey locust, is the fruit of the leguminous plant honey locust tree, looks like beans, and there are more than 40 soap kernels in each soap horn.
Soaphorn is a daily necessities, and it has been sold as a commodity in many shops in the Han Dynasty.
Naturally, what Wang Teng wants to make is not an ordinary soap horn, but a scented soap for the nobles.
In the "Qianjin Fang" written by Sun Simiao in the early Tang Dynasty, the formula of bath beans has been exquisitely extravagant, such as one of them is made of white bean crumbs as the main ingredient, adding five spices of green wood, sweet rosin, white sandalwood, musk, and clove to make it fragrant, and it is also equipped with a variety of Chinese herbs such as white silkworm and atractylodes that are believed to make the skin fair and delicate, in addition to egg white and pig pancreas that nourish and moisturize the skin.
As long as there was no war, the ancient people naturally enjoyed life, and there are countless soap recipes recorded in later generations, as long as they are carefully pondered, they can naturally be created.
As long as Wang Teng combines the summary of later generations, he will definitely be able to make high-end soap, and the only thing that needs to be careful is secrecy.
Once this formula leaks, copycats will emerge one after another.
In this regard, Wang Teng has a set of effective means of confidentiality, that is, the division of labor!
Separating the soap manufacturing process so that the same craftsman does not have the same craftsman in charge of all the processes minimizes the possibility of leaks.
Oh, and flavorings!
Simple sea rotten vegetables can be used as a seasoning as long as they are dried, which is the only way to make money.
There are many rotten vegetables on the seaside, and the only thing Wang Teng has to do is to transport them to Shanxi!
It's a magic weapon.
The troubled times are coming, ordinary villagers do not have too high requirements for the quality of life, as long as they can meet the food and clothing, and live well, it is a good thing, but for the rich and noble, their desires are endless.
Enough money and food so that the rich can pursue a better quality of life.
Potential customers for soaps and flavorings are them!
By making soaps and flavorings, you can broaden your financial resources.
Wang Teng racked his brains and finally wrote several formulas on paper.
When the mood is right, there is an emergency outside.
"My lord, Datong Flying Pigeon Biography"
"Well, what's the matter?"
"Abatai and Hauge have gone north after staying in Datong for two days"
"So, they're leaving Daming soon?"
"That's how it should be"
This is rare good news, since Lu Xiangsheng and Wang Pu left, Wang Teng has been worried, he is always afraid that the Jiannu dog will jump off the wall in a hurry, and fight to the death with the Ming army.
Now, Jiannu has finally left, which means that Lu Xiangsheng and Wang Pu no longer have to risk killing the enemy.
It seems that properly showing off muscles and showing off force is also a great pressure for an enemy who is eyeing up.
Sometimes good news always comes one after another, and on this day, Wang Teng was relaxing outside the military village.
Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves.
Wang Teng looked back, he was a sentry soldier.
What happened?
"Report, sir! Our men and horses captured nine men at the foot of the hill ahead, and six of them were armed with sharp weapons, which seemed to be not good. ”
Nine people? What do they want to do? Wang Teng was puzzled: "Did you ask what happened?" ”
"Three people said that they were villagers from the neighborhood and came up to the mountains to collect medicine, while the other people were the courtyard members of a nearby Dongjiazhuang"
"Herbs? Is the family here to arrest them? Did you find anything on the herb picker? ”
The sentinel spread out his palm, revealing a stone that shimmered with golden light.
Rao is Wang Teng wanted to break his head, but he didn't expect the so-called herbs to be gold!
Where did this gold come from?
"Go and bring those three villagers"
The sentry did not dare to slack off, and promised to leave.
Not long after, three sturdy villagers came to Wang Teng with baskets on their backs.
Wang Teng did see a lot of medicinal herbs from the basket, but he didn't find what he was looking for, weighed the gold ore in his hand, Wang Teng asked, "You found this thing on the mountain, right?" I am Ulzhou guerrilla Wang Teng, you must know that the husband is not guilty, and he is guilty. ”
The eyes of the two young villagers lit up, it seemed that they had also heard of Wang Teng's name, and when they opened their mouths, they wanted to say something, but the older villagers sighed and said, "Where the adults say, we are all honest herbalist, just a few baskets of herbs, not worth a few big bucks." ”
Wang Teng shook his head and said, "A few baskets of medicinal herbs shouldn't be worth Dongjiabao's big fight, right?" ”
The middle-aged villager's face changed, and at this time, the other two teenagers shouted: "Dad, Lord Wang is not one of those faint officials who careless of people's lives, if not, our masters would have starved to death, you should tell the truth, otherwise the lord of Dongbao will definitely not let us go." ”
The middle-aged villager sighed, and finally said: "My lord, Xiaomin is guilty, Shicai deceived you, that's right, our father and son did find gold and stone in the mountains, but the news somehow reached the ears of Dong Liang, the owner of Dongjiabao Fort, that Dong Liang was greedy and vicious, and these lackeys sent were just to imprison us so that they could find mines for him." ”
Gold mine?
Wang Teng's heart moved, the father and son who collected the medicine could still be used for their own use, but Dong Liang's attitude was really difficult to ponder.
Wang Teng didn't want to take the gold mine by himself, and there was a hungry wolf waiting for him next to him.
Would you rather kill by mistake than let go?
It's just that if you kill those nine family members like this, you will have to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and then get rid of the Dong Liang family.
In this way, many innocent lives will be killed.
Rao is Wang Teng came through, and he is used to seeing the decisive heroic deeds in the book, but when it was really his turn, he really hesitated, it was all a living life, one family after another, and his heart was not ruthless to this extent.
After hesitating, Wang Teng had no choice but to hand over the question to the medicine picker: "Those Dong Liang's family members, did they act for the tiger in the past?" ”
"Yes, when they begged for rent, they had black hands and ruthless hearts, and they would take whatever they saw was valuable, and the red children of our village were forcibly taken into the house by them."
In this way, Dong Liang does have the basic characteristics of a landlord and a bully, a group of arrogant and domineering family members, and even a bad record of forcing Liang to be a concubine and ignoring the laws of the Ming Dynasty.
Wang Teng took a deep breath and said, "Kill those nine people, the crime is to attack the official army and plot misdeeds, and they will be killed on the spot!" ”
For Wang Teng's order, the soldiers carried it out without any hesitation, "Oh! ”
When the trio of medicine collection was still in doubt, there was a sudden scream in the distance, but it was the Qingzhou army who executed Dong Liang's family.
The young man's body trembled slightly, he didn't expect that Wang Teng could easily determine the life and death of nine people with just one sentence.
The original resentment, fear, and anger against Dong Liang's family disappeared in an instant, and all that was left was fear of Wang Teng.
A word determines life and death, is this a high-ranking official?
Compared with the fear of the two sons, the middle-aged man seemed much calmer, he clenched his fists, and said: "I don't know what the adults command, there is no one else in the small family, only these two unsuccessful sons, I don't know if they can be used?" ”
When the man said this, he meant nothing more than two points, first, to show his attitude and be willing to serve Wang Teng, and second, the father and son had nothing to worry about, so they didn't have to worry too much.
Wang Teng laughed, this is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, a medicine picker actually has such insight into people's hearts, "Okay, and follow me to the village." ”
"Whoa!"
After such a small episode, Wang Teng was in a better mood.
There is a good horse under the crotch, there are beautiful women in the family, and now they want to grab a gold mine.
Wang Teng was self-absorbed and felt that ancient times were becoming more and more suitable for him as an otaku.
Don't worry about air pollution, don't think about the source of food, don't even worry about family planning, you can have a few wives if you want to have a few wives if you want to, isn't this what otaku dream of......
An hour later, an angry roar suddenly came from Dong Liang's mansion in Dongjiabao, and a person could be faintly heard roaring angrily, "Thief, I am inseparable from you!" ”
Having said that, who in Ulzhou doesn't know Wang Teng's name right now?
Clearing out the rogues and driving away the Jiannu is a genuine feat.
Dongjiabao was able to survive, but fortunately Wang Teng opened the village to take him in.
At this time, he turned his face with Wang Teng, and Dong Liang was faintly afraid.
Knock out a tooth or swallow blood!
A day later, Guangling County, who was lucky not to die, visited Wang Teng, "The wife and nephew of the lower official thanked the lord for taking him in, and specially sent some thank-you gifts, and asked the lord to smile."
After that, the county clapped his hands, and then, two men appeared carrying a box weighing hundreds of pounds.
When the gift appeared, the county closed his eyes and was silent, everything was silent! This is a good thing, a thousand taels of silver!
According to reason, Wang Teng should be touched.
However, surprisingly, Wang Teng was unmoved, "Hmph, your wife and nephew shouldn't be Dong Liang, right?" ”
The county was shocked: "My lord has also heard of Dong Liang's name? I don't dare to deceive adults, this time it was Dong Liang who asked me to come to visit my lords. ”
"Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief, do you know how illegal Dong Liang's actions are?"
This was said very seriously, and the county was dumbfounded, "My lord, Dong Liang is not a big traitor, please take it lightly!" ”
Wang Teng snorted and said, "The Son of Heaven broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, don't you know this truth?" ”
The county was speechless.
Wang Teng said again: "Dong Liang's reputation is extremely poor, and he is not benevolent to be rich, I am planning to look for him!" ”
Go to Dong Liang?
Of course, it's not to deepen the relationship, nine times out of ten, it's because of the traitor!
If it is replaced by another person, the county will guarantee that the other party will not violate the national law, but for Dong Liang, the county will really not dare to talk nonsense.
"Lieutenant Hu, let me ask you, how long have you been in this Guangling?"
"It's been 10 years"
"How long have you been a county officer?"
"More than four years"
"Let me ask you, have you filled your pockets?"
The county was frightened: "My lord! ”
Wang Teng suddenly laughed, "Okay, I don't blame you for the previous things, and I don't embarrass you, you go and call Dong Liang, I have something to say to him!" ”
The county Cheng struggled, and after a long time, Wang Teng wanted him to kill his relatives in righteousness, "My lord! ”
"Why, you don't want to?"
"I don't know what the adults plan to do with Dong Liang?"
"Ulzhou is at the time of employing people, as long as Dong Liang changes his ways, this official can give him a chance!"
Since the death of the Guangling County Order, Wang Teng has been arrested by the military and government, if he wants to target someone, the other party has to shed his skin if he doesn't die!
"Adults have to talk about it"
Wang Teng narrowed his eyes, as if smiling, "County Cheng, don't be mistaken, right now you are begging me, not me, if you don't ask for him, I will arrest him!" ”
The county man shuddered, he hurriedly shook his head, and defended: "My lord, it's a villain's stinky mouth, and he doesn't choose what to say, you wait a minute, I'll go here, and my lord will wait for a while!" ”
Wang Teng snorted and said no more.
Before entering the door, the nursing home at the door of Dong Liang sneered: "It's my uncle here, I'm invited, my lord is looking for you."
The county Cheng Tie blushed and said, "Where is Dong Liang?" ”
"In the backyard"
Handing over the reins of the horse to the scary, the county man strode forward and said, "Lead the way in front of the head."
He didn't know what was going on, he just answered loudly.
The group went straight to the backyard, and in the courtyard, Dong Liang was dancing with a sword.
"Poof", a sword stabbed out, the straw man on the wooden frame shook, and then, the grass clippings in the sky flew up.
"Who is it? Oh, oh, it's my uncle! ”
Dong Liang was originally snorting angrily, and was about to take down someone to open the knife, who would have thought that it was the county Cheng who came, his nominal elder, how could this be good?
"Hmph, it's me"
Dong Liang put away his sword and stood up, and said in his mouth: "Uncle has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, I don't know what is going on today?" ”
Dong Liang drove all his subordinates away and sent people to stand guard outside the house, in order to prevent the partition wall from having ears.
"Uncle!"
"Son, you bastard, would you like to follow me to see Wang Teng's guerrilla?"
Dong Liang's face changed greatly, "Wang Teng still refuses to give up?" ”
"It's not a good thing you did before!"
"What does he want?"
"I don't know, but Wang Teng promised that as long as you sincerely repent, he will give you a chance"
Dong Liang struggled, to go or not to go? (To be continued.) )
