Chapter Twenty-Three: The Story of the Pillar
Although this little thunder told people not to say it.
But when these people were digging for silver, they already had a lot of ideas in their minds.
The river is full of silver, silver of white flowers.
Only I dig up silver here, but I still have to rob so many people, but I can only take so much.
Can it be done?
Of course not.
But if you are an individual, you don't think it will be possible.
It's a pity that I'm from Zhoucheng, if I want to go back to Zhoucheng to call someone, I don't know how much time it will take, and there is no boat, so I can't get to Zhoucheng at all.
That's what some people think.
But some people are different.
They have relatives and friends in Maicheng.
If you ask relatives and friends to come and dig secretly, wouldn't it be a big profit?
As soon as people had the idea, they were eager to try it and just waited for it to get dark.
Sun Hu probably understood Zhang Xiaolei's thoughts, but he didn't understand how he made money.
The silver of the white flowers was thrown out.
Don't you feel distressed?
Zhang Xiaolei was not in a hurry, and in the evening, he also asked people to make a fire to cook.
A group of people sat around and sat in groups after groups.
Zhang Xiaolei hugged the bowl and said with emotion to Sun Hu beside him: "Thanks to the early discovery of the pillar, I have this blessed land." If it weren't for that accident, the pillar probably wouldn't have known that there was a silver mine here. ”
Pillar?
Sun Hu listened very curiously, but didn't ask anything during the meal.
After eating, Zhang Xiaolei found a place to rest, and Sun Hu finally walked up to him and sat down, and asked curiously, "Who is the pillar?" ”
"Huh? What pillars? ”
"It's the pillar you said when you ate earlier...... Sun Hu said, "You said that if it weren't for the pillar, you wouldn't have this blessed land." ”
Zhang Xiaolei said casually: "How do I know who the pillar is, I'm talking nonsense." ”
"What are you talking about?"
Zhang Xiaolei said unhurriedly: "It's okay, the world will tell me who the pillar is." ”
Sun Hu still didn't understand, he whispered: "I'm worried that someone will say this, although I don't know what you want to do, I just think that if you say it...... Wouldn't it be good? ”
"No, it won't."
Zhang Xiaolei turned over, chose a comfortable position to lie down, and chuckled: "I still wish they would say it." ”
Sun Hu looked at Zhang Xiaolei suspiciously.
He just felt inexplicable.
It was late at night.
Nangong Wushuang was lying on the ground, savoring the taste of chicken in his mouth, and smashing his mouth from time to time.
This feeling of oil in the mouth is really comfortable.
He gradually fell asleep, but the people around him could not sleep at all.
Taking advantage of the night, someone sneaked up.
He cautiously stepped out of the crowd and headed outside.
Someone saw him and asked him, "Where are you going?" ”
"It's convenient to go."
"Oh, go ahead."
He was not alone, although he did not know that there were others.
This man sneaked out of Dadong Mountain, and although it was difficult to walk at night, he still stumbled and ran in the direction of Maicheng.
He was not alone, although he did not know that there were others.
At last he came to the city of Mai, and he sat at the gate of the city, waiting for the gate to be opened.
Now, he finally knew that there was someone else.
The people from Dadong Mountain were all huddled under the city gates.
When people saw each other, they just smiled wryly.
I don't feel ashamed, I don't feel embarrassed.
Instead, I was thinking - I am not the only one in the world who is so smart.
Finally, when the city gate opened, they hurried into the city and went to their relatives' house.
One knocked on the door of his relative, and as soon as the door opened, he said anxiously: "Uncle, I have something important to tell you." ”
The uncle asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Dadongshan has discovered a silver mine, you go to dig it secretly at night, but don't tell others."
"Silver mines?"
"Silver Mine!"
"Is it really a silver mine?"
"What a silver mine!"
The uncle nodded again and again, and said excitedly: "I will bring the family over tonight, and I will never make a noise." ”
"Okay, don't tell anyone, I'll go back to Dadongshan first, so as not to make the boss suspicious."
"Okay."
After the man left, the uncle walked back and forth in the house, and felt that the house was too small, so he went out and walked back and forth.
Then, he made up his mind and hurried to a house.
After knocking on the door, a man came out and asked, "Second brother, why did you come to me so early?" ”
"Big brother, a silver mine has been found over there in Dadong Mountain,......" the uncle said excitedly, "Let's dig it tonight!" ”
"Is that true?"
"Of course!"
"Okay, I'll bring your sister-in-law and nephew over tonight!"
"The eldest brother must not tell others, just let a few of our brothers take possession, and I will inform the third brother."
"Remember not to inform the fourth sister, the water spilled by the married daughter!"
"Of course you know!"
After the uncle left, the eldest brother walked back and forth in the house.
Because the house was small, he simply went to the street outside to walk back and forth.
In the end, he made up his mind and hurried to a house.
When the man opened the door, he asked curiously, "Brother-in-law, what are you looking for me?" ”
"There is a silver mine on the side of Dadong Mountain, brother-in-law, you treat me well on weekdays, and when my family can't afford to eat, you will distribute the excess food to my family. I can't repay this kindness, and I am here to repay it today. ”
"Is that true?"
"Of course, don't tell anyone!"
"Of course, never tell anyone!"
……
Wait until noon.
Wu Luonian felt that the weather had become cold recently, and he should eat more meat.
So he called the butler and told him to buy some pork, but not too much, because it would be a waste of money.
Wu Luonian thought that whether it was the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, if it was eaten in the stomach, it would become.
So you don't have to eat too much, it's pointless, as long as you have some oil and water in your stomach to keep out the cold.
After the housekeeper went out, Master Zhao hurriedly came in, and he said anxiously: "My lord, there is something important!" ”
"Oh? What's the big deal? ”
"Go in and talk!"
Wu Luonian saw that Master Zhao seemed to have a secret, so he entered the study and asked curiously: "What is the matter?" ”
Master Zhao whispered: "Someone came to report that a silver mine had been discovered in Dadong Mountain. ”
"Silver mines?"
"It's a ......long story at this time," Master Zhao said seriously, "It is rumored that five years ago, there was a woodcutter named Zhuzi near Dadong Mountain. He rested under the waterfall one day, but because there was moss in the water all the year round, he accidentally slipped and fell, and hurriedly hooked the cliff next to him with the sickle in his hand, but although he still fell, he inadvertently found that there was silver in this cliff. ”
Wu Luonian was surprised: "Ore vein? ”
Master Zhao nodded and said, "Yes, after the pillar took the money, life was quite nourishing." He was a smart man, and in order not to arouse suspicion, he only took a few at a time. And just last year, he met a bandit and almost died, but was saved by a wealthy businessman. Zhu Zi reported the favor and told the rich merchant about it, and the rich merchant ...... It's the one who came to buy Dadongshan! ”
