Chapter 193: Envoy from the Northland

On the seventh day of the ninth month, the Li family completely fell into a completely irrational chaos, this situation began when Guantao took the initiative to join the ranks of the housemother with more than a dozen carriage gifts, and gave orders with Li Wan.

Li Han's new house was as agreed at the beginning, on the left and right sides of his original living room, a side courtyard was cleaned up, and a wide range of renovation and expansion was carried out, with the princess on the left and Fang Yuxiu on the right.

However, more than a dozen carriages and things brought by Guantao, but at least nine and a half of them were given to Liu Lian, if they were all placed in the room on the left, it would still be high and low, favoring one over the other, therefore, the Li family watched Guantao shouting and shouting for people to move things to the princess's room, not saying anything, and complaining about her in their hearts.

Li Han couldn't care about these anymore, and after receiving a report from a subordinate, he slipped out of the house early in the morning, hurried out of the city with a few doglegs, and went to Bashang, summoning a man covered in dust.

When the man saw Pegasus coming, he flew down and stood in front of Li Han, his eyes were full of surprise and attachment when the puppy saw his master, and he shouted with red eyes: "Sir, I miss you to death!" ”

Li Han looked at the strong food, and completely became the stone of a big man in the north, and his heart swelled with kindness, raised his hand and smashed a punch in his chest and said, "It seems that you have a good life, you eat like a bear." ”

Li Sancanglong lived and died with the stone, and the three of them also hugged and laughed for a while, and then they began to get to the point.

Shi smiled embarrassedly and said: "Yes, the business of our processing factory is very good, I asked Feng Erniang and Sister Gu to be in charge of the woolen factory and the leather armor factory respectively, they are doing their best to do a good job, and the wool spinning products are stocked according to your instructions." The leather armor was bought by Li Guangtaishou and the border generals.

With the surplus money, I will recruit homeless people around according to your instructions, and before the autumn planting, more than 300 households have been settled, and more than 2,000 acres of farmland have been cultivated. ”

Li Han was not surprised, the land around Yinshan was fertile. It can be cultivated and pastured, and it was occupied by the Huns earlier, and those Hu Shengsheng, who could only graze, abandoned this place, except for the natural pasture, there is no other use value at all.

Li Han asked with relief: "Shi, you have worked hard, has the mine started?" ”

Shi Shi said with a worried face: "The construction has started, but I don't know if this thing is done right, if it is wrong." Sir, punish me. ”

"What's wrong?"

"Li Guangtai came to visit us from time to time, but all the military equipment, armor shields, stirrups and the like were forcibly bought, although they also gave us a lot of help. But this person is very annoying, and he just wants to intervene in everything.

That day he saw that I was arranging for the miners to be recruited to get ready to start, and he had to go with him to see the copper ore we had dug up. The eyes glow green like a wolf that sees meat, and you have to participate in it if you live or die.

I certainly won't say yes without your permission. In the end, he even forbade us to dig as a threat if he didn't agree, and finally offered to recruit him to help us with the miners and homeless people in the future, just to get a percent......

Li Han rubbed his nose and said with annoyance: "This old fox is not stupid, of course he understands the value of a copper mine, one percent...... Hey, one achievement is enough to buy two Chang'an Cities! ”

All the dogs were shocked together, and Canglong said with a calm face: "Stone, you are too reckless, if you can't make a decision, even if you don't dig it for the time being, it is more suitable than being blackmailed by Li Guang now!" ”

The stones were about to cry in fright, how did he know that those ore lumps could be worth so much money, and looked at Li Han pitifully.

Li Han was relieved after rubbing his nose, patted the stone and said: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, this is rich, of course, everyone will make a fortune together for a long time, if we eat alone, Li Guang will definitely obstruct it in many ways, then it's not cost-effective, it's just a percent, just give it to him, by the way, did he do his best to help?" ”

Shi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Try your best, Li Guang Taishou grabbed my neck and signed an agreement with me and left, only twenty days later, a team arrived at us, I thought it was the Huns who called, who knew that it was Li Guang Taishou who sent us people."

God, for the first time, he sent more than 3,000 people, saying that he brought them from Zhangye County, which had been plundered by the Qiang people, so the Taishou of Zhangye County also knelt down for him, thanked him for helping these poor people find a way to live, and begged him to accept these border people from time to time in the future.

When these people came to us, they saw that they could eat enough every day, and they were paid on time, and they were willing to leave, and they all settled their homes here, and they also sent letters to summon relatives and friends, and now, the population of our county has exceeded 10,000! ”

Although Li Han knew that his hairpin county was located on the border between the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty, and it happened that the Wunugetu Mountain in Inner Mongolia, which was rich in copper ore in later generations, was located in it, and the two counties were even more amazing, it was the black soil of the northeast in later generations, and there was a cornucopia known as "Duobao Mountain" in it, and the Huns thought that he was given here, and he was stuffed into the two cakes of the Xiongnu and Xianbei people as meat filling, but they didn't know that he was the happiest person to laugh.

Of course, understanding these heavenly opportunities is not that Li Han has any perspective and can see through what mineral deposits are hidden underneath, but that he understands some basic knowledge of the distribution of mineral deposits in China, so it seems very mysterious.

What surprised Li Han was that the people on the border lived so miserably, there were Xiongnu in the north, Qiang people in the west, and Xianbei in the northeast, no matter what race these paralyzed Hu people were, they all did not produce, and the only solution to the lack of food was to rob the people of the Han Dynasty of rations, and the poor people were forced to be displaced by so many people, and their own county alone contained more than 10,000 people.

"Hmph, and let the Hu people be rampant for a while, when they ripen in autumn next year, the master will definitely let them taste great."

Looking at Li Han's cold face, a few dog-legged people seemed to see the hunting wind rising in the desert, and the remnant sun was like blood, reflecting the corpses of the Hu people all over the ground, and his lord was in this posture right away.

"Stone, you did a good job, what else did you do when you came back this time besides reporting my results?"

The stone said: "It's nothing, I just miss you, and ...... Now that our business in Hairpin County is getting bigger and bigger, I have some difficulty managing it alone, and I want to beg you to send two more people to help me, otherwise I'm afraid that the red-eyed people will go to intervene. ”

Li Han said approvingly: "Yes, I didn't expect the development to be so fast, it's really too difficult for you to be in charge of so many projects alone, okay, I will send you a strong boss, even Li Guang doesn't dare to come to the door to bully you, but as soon as he goes, you won't be able to be a leader, wronged?" ”

Shi Shi said in surprise: "Okay, good, as long as it is to make money for our family, whoever is the leader can do it, I am afraid of being blackmailed and losing our family's property in vain, and it is okay not to be the head." ”

Li Han said with relief: "Stone, it's just the right time for you to come back, I'm going to marry my daughter-in-law tomorrow, you just happen to be lively together, and when you leave, I'll let your helper go with you." ”

Stone was even more overjoyed when he heard that the lord was going to marry, and when Stone did not pay attention to their conversation, two people had been listening in the room, especially the old man who was as brave as a lion, and his face showed a strange expression after hearing this.

Wei Tie suddenly rode over, and before he could enter the door, he shouted, "The lord is not good!" Something big is coming! ”

Li Han changed color and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Wei Tie rolled off the horse and shouted at the bottom of the steps: "Just now, the Marquis of Jianling sent someone to secretly report the news, saying that the Hou Mansion is ready, and when you marry the princess tomorrow, Mrs. Hou will lead the women and children of the Mansion to carry the empty coffin of the Hou father and son to seek justice for Zhou Xiang, and the old lady ordered me to quickly find you to go back to deal with this matter." ”

Li Han smiled bitterly and turned around and said, "This is really difficult to be a good person, old man, what do you say?" ”

The stone was stunned, I don't know what happened to my lord, this matter is so important, who can bear it when he was carrying a coffin to the door when he was worshipping the church? How could he speak to the house?

The old lion-like person changed color, stood up and startled the stone again, this old man is so tall and strong, just now the lord praised him for being strong, compared with this one, it is still the difference between the eagle and the old hen.

"The old man will go back for a walk."

"Stop, stop!" Li Han hurriedly grabbed Zhou Yafu and said, "If you go back like this, won't our painstaking arrangements be in vain?" ”

"What then?"

"If you want to go back, you have to think of a safe way, your figure is too obvious and you can't go back, so let's dress up Brother Zhou and go back to the city with me, and before the city gate closes in the evening, I will send someone to bring my aunt here quietly, you ask her, if you are not afraid of the bitter cold in the north, you can take it away together when the time comes."

Zhou Yafu sighed and said, "Boy, are you really relieved to take care of your hairpin to the old man?" And let me take my family members away, aren't you afraid that the old man will take it for himself? ”

Li Han smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, even though Uncle Zhou's whole family is gone, the little nephew is very relieved of you." ”

The stone's eyes widened, and he knew what a powerful helper the lord had sent to him, Marquis! Zhou Xiang! O General!

Zhou Yang was dressed as Li Han's guard, and the group hurriedly returned to the city again, Li Han went home and pretended to bring five-color gifts, and then openly went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to resolve the crisis. (To be continued......)
