170 in-depth cooperation
"Hou Lord, the coal has really been dug out!"
In Dongjiawan, 20 miles north of Banzhou City, a miner covered in black stumbled out of the mine, ran to Yang Chaodong, who was watching from the side, holding a large black coal block, knelt on the ground, and lifted the coal high for Yang Chaodong to watch.
"I actually found coal!" Yang Chaodong looked at the staff around him with incredible eyes, and his face couldn't hide his surprise and joy.
"Congratulations to the Queen, Blessings to the Queen!" The staff bowed together and congratulated Yang Chaodong.
You must know that this coal mine was dedicated to Yang Chaodong by Su Hao, and the output of the coal mine is Yang Chaodong's income. Banju is surrounded by forests and is not short of fuel, but the neighboring cities of Chongqing and Guiyang have always been short of fuel due to their dense population. If Banshu were able to mine coal and sell it in these places, the profits would be very considerable.
Gui is the heir of Banzhou Tusi, and Yang Chaodong is also very short on money. Banzhou has a population of only a few hundred thousand, and the amount of money and food that can be produced in a year is not much, not to mention that in order to maintain the rule of the Yang family in the local area, the Tusi Mansion cannot excessively demand from the local people, so the total income is very limited. Of these limited incomes, Yang Yinglong also had to spend a considerable part of it on raising soldiers and giving gifts to the powerful ministers in the court, and in the end there was less money left.
Yang Chaodong's ordinary life is a hundred times better than that of ordinary Banzhou people, but compared with the rich people in rich places, it can only be described by the word shabby. It's not that he hasn't thought of a way to make money, but in such an inconvenient mountain, what tricks can he have?
Now, a Su Hao fell from the sky, and he gave him a big coal mine while talking and laughing. According to what Su Hao said, the annual output of this coal mine will never be less than 000 taels of silver, which is no less than sending charcoal in the snow for Yang Chaodong, who is in financial difficulties.
What shocked Yang Chaodong the most was that all kinds of signs showed that Su Hao had indeed never been to Banzhou before, he took the compass in Banzhou City for a long time, and then pointed in a direction, and really found this big coal mine in Dongjiawan. This kind of skill has never been heard of by Yang Chaodong and his staff.
"Tell Su Tianshi to come over." Yang Chaodong said to Kong Gui, the leader of the pro-soldiers, and when he saw Kong Gui's body moving, Yang Chaodong hurriedly added: "I invited him over, don't be rude." ”
"Uh...... Yes, sir! Kong Gui reluctantly agreed, and walked towards Su Hao and Chen Guanyu, who were isolated by the soldiers dozens of steps away.
"Master Su, the queen of my family is invited." Kong Gui came to Su Hao, bowed slightly and said.
Su Hao nodded reservedly, raised his legs and walked towards Yang Chaodong, followed by Chen Guanyu. Kong Gui raised his head and asked Yang Chaodong for instructions with his eyes, and saw that Yang Chaodong did not object, so Chen Guanyu and Su Hao went over together.
"Student Su Hao, see General Yang."
Su Hao walked up to Yang Chaodong and made a big salute respectfully. Yang Chaodong hurriedly stepped forward, clasped his hands with each other, and said with a smile: "Su Tianshi is too polite, Yang can't afford to be a great gift from Su Tianshi." ”
Su Hao said: "General Yang Shen is young and promising, unifying the elite soldiers of the party, and ensuring the peace of the four realms, Su Hao has admired him for a long time, and today he was able to see General Yang Shen's tiger face, which is really a blessing for three lives." ”
Yang Chaodong also complimented: "Su Tianshi has an overreputation. Su Tianshi is thorough, unpredictable prophet, Ben Jiang found such a big coal mine, Ben Jiang is really grateful. ”
"This is all as it should be, Su's subordinates inadvertently collided with General Yang, and Su Mou should have come to make amends. Offering a small coal mine is just a little reparation. I also asked General Yang to smile and accept it, and he was able to forgive me for the unintentional mistakes of my subordinates. Su Hao said.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Yang Chaodong said, he turned to Wang Qifeng and said, "Mr. Wang, you take my order, go to the General's Mansion immediately, bring all Su Tianshi's subordinates, and hand them over to Su Tianshi." ”
"Thank you, General Yang." Su Hao said, "By the way, General Yang, if you can, the survey tools brought by my subordinates, as well as the paper they used to record immortal talismans, also hope to return them to the students, I don't know if this request is abrupt." ”
"Mr. Wang, you will bring the items carried by Su Tianshi's people in a moment." Yang Chaodong commanded. With Wang Qi on his horse and leaving, Yang Chaodong turned back to Su Hao and said, "Master Su, those survey tools can be returned to you, but those things written on the paper ...... You say it's an immortal talisman? ”
Su Hao nodded and said, "Exactly, that's the secret of this sect." ”
He emphasized that the secret of not passing on was to block Yang Chaodong's mouth in advance, so that Yang Chaodong had to ask about the meaning of these "immortal talismans". In fact, each gate has its own set of special symbols, and outsiders also know that this is not to be asked. Those who believe in the theory of ghosts and gods will think that these symbols really record the heavens and cannot be revealed. For those who don't believe in ghosts and gods, these symbols are a cover for Taoist priests to pretend to be gods and ghosts, so there is no need to investigate their substance.
Yang Chaodong originally belonged to the latter category of people, and he was disdainful of this kind of Taoist spell. But after seeing Su Hao's wonderful skills in prospecting, his attitude changed, and then he recalled those tadpole-like symbols, and the more he pondered it, the more he felt that there must be a deep meaning in it. He looked at Su Hao and said, "It's not impossible to return those papers to Su Tianshi. But can Su Tianshi tell the general what these immortal talismans are used for? ”
"Uh, these talismans are for recording the earth's qi. If you want to find a mine, you rely on figuring out the ground. Su Hao said.
Yang Chaodong said with a smile: "I see, Su Tianshi was able to find this coal mine, and he also relied on the guidance of these immortal runes?" However, these immortal talismans are obviously still in the hands of the general, so what does Su Tianshi rely on to determine the mine? ”
Su Hao pretended to be embarrassed and said, "I'm ashamed, in fact, before the student arrived in Banzhou, the student's subordinates had already sent some immortal rune paper to Chongqing, so the student knew that there was a coal mine outside the city of Banzhou. ”
The situation that Su Hao said, Yang Chaodong has also heard about it these days. Although he only captured He Bencheng, a soldier of the survey battalion with a small banner, news from other places showed that there were other people who had done similar surveys in Banzhou, but they were not discovered by the Tusi soldiers. Su Hao was able to speak bluntly about this matter, but Yang Chaodong was a little more down-to-earth.
"Since these immortal runes are used for prospecting, and now that Su Tianshi has dedicated the coal mines he found to the general, then I'm afraid these immortal runes are useless, right? Otherwise, I will have these things burned so that they don't fall into the hands of others and leak the secrets of Su Tianshi's own sect. Yang Chaodong asked tentatively.
"This ......," Su Hao pretended to be embarrassed and said, "The student received the will of Gonggong Hu and came to Banzhou to prospect, if he didn't bring anything back, wouldn't he be unable to explain?" I also asked General Yang to raise his noble hand and return these things to the students. ”
Yang Chaodong smiled and waved his hand to everyone. Kong Gui and the others were already very familiar with Yang Chaodong's gestures, and when they saw the situation, they hurriedly stepped back, and by the way, they also pulled Chen Guanyu aside, leaving only Su Hao and Yang Chaodong standing together. Yang Chaodong walked up to Su Hao and said in a low voice: "Master Su, we don't talk darkly, you give Yang a thorough explanation, what other secrets are hidden in these immortal talismans?" ”
"Well, in fact, there are no secrets...... Su Hao stood up, but the expression on his face was clearly saying: Of course there are secrets in this, but I won't tell you.
Yang Chaodong said: "Master Su, I will appreciate your talent very much, and I also hope that there will be some deeper cooperation between us." However, if Su Tianshi has something to hide from the general, it will be difficult for everyone to talk. ”
Su Hao said: "Or, General Yang, I don't want these immortal talismans, you just need to hand over my people to me." I'm going to take them out of Banzhou, what does Yang Shen think? ”
The more Su Hao did this, the more Yang Chaodong believed that Su Hao must have something unsaid. Based on Yang Chaodong's analysis, Su Hao was able to hand over a coal mine happily, and it was likely that he had other resources in his hands, but he didn't say it. Previously, Su Hao asked Yang Chaodong for He Bencheng's survey information, which was obviously not related to this coal mine that had been discovered, which meant that Su Hao knew something more valuable than this coal mine.
Now that he thought of this, how could Yang Chaodong let Su Hao leave in vain?
"Is Su Tianshi really unwilling to cooperate with this general?" Yang Chaodong asked with a smile, adding a bit of threat to his tone.
"It's not that the students don't want to cooperate with General Yang, it's really Gonggong Hu's side ......" Su Hao showed a depressed expression.
"Grandpa Hu, you just received the will, as for whether you can find the mine, it can only be providential. However, if Su Tianshi discovers other mines in Banzhouzhi, without the approval of the Tusi Mansion, I am afraid that this mine will not be able to be mined, right? Yang Chaodong said.
"I definitely can't mine it myself, but there is a ...... Gonggong Hu" Su Hao seriously debated the feasibility with Yang Chaodong, and between the words, it was clearly revealed that he did have better mineral resources.
Yang Chaodong said: "Su Tianshi, you are looking for a mine for Gonggong Hu, and if you find it, it is just a compliment, and you have to count on Gonggong Hu to carry you, I don't know that it is the Year of the Monkey and the month of the horse." If you are willing to cooperate with Ben, Ben will guarantee that you will be rewarded immediately. Which of the two results is better or worse, I think with Su Tianshi's intelligence, I should be able to tell the difference, right? ”
"General Yang, what do you mean when you say that Su will be able to get a reward immediately?" Su Hao asked.
Yang Chaodong said: "If you can hand over the mine you find to Ben General, Ben will promise that the income from mining will be opened by us in three sevens, you will get three, and I will get seven, how about you?" ”
"Is that true?" Su Hao's eyes lit up, and he stared at Yang Chaodong and asked. (To be continued.) Please search, the novel is better and faster!)
