174 House arrest

From Banzhou Castle to Wuchuan, the straight-line distance is only 200 miles, but during this time, the road pass is deep, the water is fast and the moss is slippery, and the march is very inconvenient. The Tusi soldiers led by Yang Chaodong overcame all the obstacles and walked for three days before they came to the place pointed out by Su Hao.

This place is located in a valley, and when you look up, you can see the mountains next to it, and it really has a bit of a dragon shape. As for the streams in the valley, they are zigzag, and they are not a few clear springs. That is to say, Su Hao had a deep impression of this place in his previous life, otherwise it would not be so easy to find this mining area without a map or navigation equipment.

"Master Su Yao, is there a vein of Nadan placer ore here?"

Yang Chaodong walked up to Su Hao and asked him respectfully.

Su Hao didn't suffer much along the way, in order to take care of him, Yang Chaodong specially arranged a few strong men to carry Su Hao with a pair of poles. However, Rao is like this, when Su Hao came down from the pole, he still felt dizzy, if nothing else, because the road was too steep.

"That's right, right here, I can already see the purple qi of Dansha." Su Hao stood on the ground, squinting his eyes while moving his numb legs and feet.

"Purple gas? Where? Yang Chaodong followed Su Hao's gaze and looked into the distance, his eyes were full of green trees, how could there be any purple gas.

Su Hao made an expression that could not be revealed, took out a compass from his arms, gestured it in his hand, and then pointed to the front and said: "It's in this piece, Yang Shen will let the craftsmen start looking for the outcrop of the ore vein." ”

Mercury sulfide deposits are distributed in a wide range of underground areas, with different depths, and with the technical conditions of the time, it is only possible to find the place where the veins are exposed to the surface first, and then dig down. Su Hao was only able to find the place where the ore deposit was located based on the memory of later generations, but where the ore vein was outcropping, he couldn't determine it at once, and he needed to judge it by observing the direction of the rock formation. However, he also had a trick, that is, to find some experienced miners to assist him, which he had already agreed with Yang Chaodong before leaving Banzhou City.

"Come in!" Yang Chaodong turned around and shouted.

"The subordinates are here!" Kong Gui said.

"Pass my order, let all the craftsmen disperse, look for Dan sand mine, find the first one, reward five taels of silver!" Yang Chaodong said.

"Order!" Kong Gui agreed and ran back to the team. After a while, a group of ragged craftsmen walked towards the valley under the supervision of the Tusi soldiers, one by one, bowing their heads and observing the stones under their feet. These craftsmen have all mined Dansha ore in Sizhou, Tongren and other places, and can recognize the appearance of Dansha ore.

Let the craftsmen out, and Su Hao will have nothing to do. He turned his head to Yang Chaodong and hugged his fists and said, "General Yang, that's all the students can do." I believe that the craftsmen will be able to find the outcrop of the Dansha mine in a while, and then Yang Shen will be arranged to enter the Kaitong mining, I guarantee that the scale of this deposit will not be inferior to the Wanshan mine. ”

"Su Yaoshi is highly talented, and Yang admires it." Yang Chaodong said with a smile, "By the way, after finding this mine, I don't know what Su Yaoshi's next plan will be?" ”

"Intended?" Su Hao said, "Naturally, I went back to ChΓ³ngqΓ¬ng, what Hu Gonggong told the students to do has been delayed for half a year, and the students have to go back quickly and bring them to Mahu Mansion to find gold mines." ”

Yang Chaodong said: "Master Su Yao is so talented, is he willing to be an eagle dog for that castration?" ”

Su Hao's face changed greatly, and he said, "General Yang will be cautious, this Hu Gonggong...... How to call it by such terms. ”

Yang Chaodong laughed and said, "Master Su is afraid of this Hu Gonggong, but Yang is not afraid. It's not a secret, in Yang's eyes, even the current emperor is just Erer, let alone a eunuch? ”

"This ......" Su Hao's face was embarrassed, and he arched his hand and said: "General Yang, forgive the students for being timid and not daring to speak falsely." The students dared to say goodbye to General Yang, so they returned to ChΓ³ngqΓ¬ng. ”

Yang Chaodong said: "What is Su Yaoshi anxious about, hasn't this Dan sand mine been found yet?" Besides, even if you can find a few pieces of Dansha ore, there is still a lot of gap from the big mine that Su Yaoshi said, how can Su Yaoshi have to wait until the Dansha mine really becomes a climate before leaving, right? ”

"This mining is not an overnight thing, if you want to wait for this Dan placer mine to be fully completed, I am afraid that it will only take a year or two, right? Students just can't wait. Su Hao said.

Yang Chaodong said: "Master Su Yao, as the saying goes, send the Buddha to the west, since you have already pointed out the location of the Dansha mine, just wait for the mine to go before leaving, Yang also hopes to ask Su Xiaoshi sooner or later to teach some methods of public opinion." ”

"What does General Yang mean, is he going to detain Su?" Su Hao's face sank and asked.

Yang Chaodong waved his hand and said: "How dare Yang make a mistake, it's just that he wants to keep Su Xiaoshi in Banzhou for a few more years." ”

"What if Su doesn't want to?" Su Hao asked.

Yang Chaodong sneered and asked rhetorically: "Master Su, you have been in Banzhou for many days, how does Yang treat you?" ”

Su Hao nodded and said, "Corporal Yang Counselor Lixian, treat Su well." ”

Yang Chaodong said: "That's it, since Yang treats you well, you stay in Banzhou and enjoy the wealth with my Yang family, what's the matter?" Do you have to work for that castration? ”

Su Hao shook his head and said: "General Yang is wrong, although the student inherited his father's honorific title, he was also born in school. When students acquire this body of literature and martial arts, they want to sell it to the emperor's family so that they can glorify their ancestors in the future. Yang Shen will be able to promise Su the wealth and wealth, and Su will understand it. However, I also asked General Yang to let Su leave, and Su will be thanked in the future. ”

Yang Chaodong said: "Master Su, in this Wangqi prospecting, Yang admires you. But if you look at this general trend, Su Yaoshi is only afraid that he will be a little inferior to Yang. In Yang's opinion, this Ming Dynasty has not been around for a long time, and Su Yaoshi went to work for the emperor's family at this time, but he was afraid that he was a little ignorant of current affairs. Yang admires Su Yaoshi's talent, so he can't bear to watch Su Yaoshi go astray. ”

"This ......" Su Hao was speechless.

As a traverser, he admits that Yang Chaodong's words are right, the Ming Dynasty has experienced more than 200 years of development, and by this time it has gradually declined, which can be seen by many people. Of course, depending on the position, the idea at this time is also different. For example, important ministers of the court like Ye Mengxiong and Wang Yiyu want to turn the tide and use their own efforts to revive the Ming Dynasty. And local warlords like Yang Yinglong's father and son are not so loyal, they want to either protect themselves wisely, or take the opportunity to develop, even if they can't usurp the throne, at least let their power expand at this time.

"Come in!" Yang Chaodong shouted again.

"In!" Wang Qifeng appeared like a ghost, and Su Hao didn't know where he was hiding before.

Yang Chaodong pointed at Su Hao and said, "Mr. Wang, Master Su Xiaoshi is looking for ore for us in Banzhou, and he has worked hard, so we can't treat him badly." 40 miles away from here, there is a Seven Star Mountain, there is a Qingfeng Taoist Temple on the mountain, isolated from the world, it is a good place to cultivate immortals, I want to give this view to Su Yaoshi. You will take a team into the horse and escort Su Yaoshi to the Qingfeng Taoist Temple, there must be no mistake, understand? ”

"My subordinates understand!" Wang Qi responded.

"General Yang, do you want to put Su under house arrest?" Su Hao asked with widened eyes. This result was also expected by Su Hao, but at this time, he still needed to show some surprised expressions.

Yang Chaodong smiled, reached out and patted Su Hao's shoulder, and said, "Master Su Yao, I would have cherished you as a talent." Although the current move is a little disrespectful, Su Yaoshi will understand the general's good intentions sooner or later. ”

"It's okay......" Su Hao pretended to be helpless, he stood on his chest with one palm, recited a word of the Tao in his mouth, and then said to Yang Chaodong: "General Yang, mining here, please pay homage to the mountain god and the mine god in the morning and evening, it is indispensable for a day." Otherwise, if you neglect the gods, you are afraid that there will be a disaster, remember, remember. ”

Yang Chaodong nodded and said, "Master Xie Su pointed out, Yang remembered." ”

Su Hao said again: "General Yang Shen gave me the Qingfeng Taoist Temple, and the students laughed at it." However, we are waiting for the cultivation of immortals to enter, and we are good at gathering the qi of the land, so we can't stay in one place for a long time, maybe when, the student will escape from the wind, and then I will ask Yang Shen to forgive the student for the crime of saying goodbye. ”

"Master Su Yao's skills are profound, if you want to escape from the wind, please take care of yourself, how dare Yang stop it." Yang Chaodong replied half-truthfully. Yang Chaodong had only heard of this kind of thing in the story, and he really didn't know if Su Hao had such skills. If Su Hao really had this ability, he couldn't stop it, and he didn't dare to stop it, so naturally he could only let Su Hao leave.

Wang Qifeng is a person who doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, and when he heard Su Hao pretending to be a ghost to scare Yang Chaodong, he smiled slightly and said, "Su Xiaoshi Jing has such a spell, let's teach Wang another day." These days, Wang will always be by Su Yaoshi's side, Su Yaoshi is in the wind, please tell Wang in advance, and let Wang open his eyes. ”

He said this very artistically, and the implication was that he would keep an eye on Su Hao, and Su Hao wanted to find some excuse to escape from the wind, which was absolutely impossible.

Su Hao also laughed, he arched his hand to Wang Qifeng and said, "Mr. Wang is polite, Su Mou's little trick, where can he get into Mr. Wang's eyes." In this way, when Su wants to leave, he will definitely inform Mr. Wang. ”

"That's very good." Wang Qi said, "Master Su, it's a long way to go to Qixing Mountain from here, let's set off, right?" ”

"Listen to me." Su Hao said.

Wang Qifeng made a gesture to the left and right, and the strong men from before stepped forward with a pole, bowed to Su Hao, and said, "Master Su, please go up and lift the pole." ”

"There is labor, there is labor." Su Hao saluted a few strong men with a big grin, and then climbed up the pole. He Bencheng and Xiong Min Yang Erjin were also brought over and followed by the pole where Su Hao was sitting. Wang Qi gave an order, and more than 100 Tusi soldiers came over with bright spears, called escorts, but they were actually escorts, surrounded by Su Hao and his party, and headed towards Qixing Mountain, 40 miles away.
