Shen Anan looked very distressed, frowning. The vegetables I was picking in my hand were suffered. "It's impossible for me to be a cook in the Li Mansion all the time, I still have that big family thing, how can I stay here all the time. I was thinking about how to help the young master solve the matter of the stone mine, and let him let me go back. ”

Du Chong saw that Shen An'an had already made an idea in his heart that he would not stay in the Li Mansion for a long time, so he couldn't help but feel a little relieved. In his heart, he actually didn't want Shen An'an to stay in the Li Mansion all the time, as for why he had such thoughts, even he couldn't understand. Then Du Chong said: "That's okay, maybe when the young master solves the matter of the stone mine, he won't care about what you did before." When the time comes, I'll help you say a few good words before anything, and maybe this matter will be over. ”

Shen Anan nodded again and again after hearing this, and agreed with Du Chong's statement, and echoed: "Yes, I think so too." But Master, tell me honestly about the current situation of the quarry. I want it as it is, without a trace of reservations. Shen An'an said these words, of course, not jokingly. It's about assessing risks and predicting priorities.

If the situation in the quarry is not so serious, then she will have to come up with a long-term and safe plan. But if the situation is urgent, it is a different story.

Du Chong heard Shen Anan say that she has a solution, what is the specific solution, but she has not yet revealed her words. But the problem now is that no matter whether Shen Anan wants to care about it or not, she is involved in the affairs of the Li family.

Now that she has been arrested by Li Sheng, she can't walk if she wants to, the only thing she can do is to share the hardships with him, and then negotiate the conditions. Of course, Du Chong also thought of this. So he said, "Okay, I'll tell you, but you can't show your mouth in front of the young master." Otherwise, if he knows, I will be miserable. ”

Shen Anan nodded again and again, repeatedly promising that he would never say it. In fact, there is no need for Du Chong's advice, Shen Anan can't wait to leave Li Sheng for 108,000 miles. It would be better to never see him again.

After thinking for a while, Du Chong told Shen An'an about the current situation of the stone mine. "The situation is very bleak. Originally, the young master was thinking of a way. But unexpectedly, two days ago, the old master came over and gave an ultimatum to the young master, saying that if the delivery could not be made on time before the fifteenth, the young master would be asked to mortgage the house. ”

"It's so serious?" Shen Anan knew that the stone mine was in difficulty, but he didn't expect that this problem was not only related to whether the stone mine would start or not, but also related to the entire Li family.

Shen Anan didn't dare to imagine, thinking that a person as proud as Li Sheng would do if he lost this mansion? And where should a person as good as Madame go once he loses the protection of his family?

From Du Chong's words, Shen Anan judged that Li Sheng was not as glamorous as he saw on the surface in the Li family. A father who doesn't care about his son's life or death, is this still a qualified father? Intuition told Shen Anan that he must help them tide over the difficulties this time.

"Well, this list was given by Lord Ming. If he can't hand over the order, if the court blames it, it is estimated that the old man will not be able to protect the young master if he wants to, and then it will not be as simple as just losing money. ”

When Shen Anan heard this, his face couldn't help but become serious. couldn't help but say unfairly: "It is said that this tiger poison does not eat children, and this Master Li is really." ”

"Shh Unexpectedly, before Shen An'an finished speaking, Du Chong hurriedly gestured to her. "Don't say."

Shen An'an could only stop the topic, focus on the stone mine, and continue to ask, "Then what methods have you thought of?" What did the young master say? ”

"We only have more than ten days to go, and we will deliver on the fifteenth of this month. And two days ago, the young master and I also went out to think of a way, and we originally wanted to borrow some stones from other silver mines. When we really solve the problem, we will return the principal with interest. Unexpectedly, those people, as soon as they heard that we were going to have so much. Knowing that something had happened to our mine, they refused to lend it to us. ”

"This world is really realistic, it seems that I can only use the way I want to."

After Du Chong saw that Shen Anan knew what had happened, he still did not change his original intention, and he couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope in his heart. "What are you talking about?"

"With*."

"*, what's that?"

"A magical thing that is so powerful that it can raze a hill to the ground."

After Du Chong heard this, he was really frightened. He looked at Shen An'an with a look of surprise and said, "Are you sure there is such a thing in this world, why don't I feel like I'm dreaming?" ”

How do you know if you don't try? In fact, this world is much bigger than we imagined. If you can find all the materials I need in a short time, I can try it, and maybe we'll make it. ”

Listening to Shen An'an's unreliable words, Du Chong felt deeply worried in his heart. It turns out that she is not 10% certain, that is, there are still unknowns. And Du Chong seriously doubts, is there any existence in this world that Shen An'an said is called *?

However, Du Chong doubted in his heart, after all, he was still loyal to the Li family and served the Li family, so in his bones, he still hoped that Shen Anan could succeed. "Well, whether it works out or not, we'll have to try it before we know it, right?"

"Well, then you can help me find all the materials below." Immediately, Shen Anan wrote the main ingredients of * on paper with a pen. Sulfur stone, saltpeter, borax, charcoal and other main raw materials.

As long as Du Chong found all these materials for her, she was ready to start experimenting. But the venue and process of the experiment are another annoyance.

Shen Anan felt that this matter still had to be approved by Li Sheng, otherwise, maybe she would be arrested directly by Li Sheng as a saboteur before the experiment was successful.

Du Chong took the paper written by Shen An'an and took it over and looked at it a few times. I found that there were several kinds of writing that I knew, but there were two kinds of names that I hadn't even heard of. Then he said: "I know one or two of these materials you mentioned, and I want to find a friend to inquire." Du Chong saw that what Shen Anan wanted was saltpeter and charcoal. I immediately felt very curious, and thought that she was going to cook some fresh dishes and needed this.

"You look for it first, and tell me if you have any difficulties. Plus, you're going to have to help me find an open place where no one is around. Shen Anan thought that if he could find these materials as soon as possible, he would have to do experiments first.

The relationship with Li Sheng didn't know that it would ease that day, so she could only hide it for the time being.
