Chapter 522, Miner's Life
"It's an iron ore vein in Fangcheng in Qindi."
"Iron ore?" This is something more cautious than a gold mine, especially now that the troubled times are taking place.
Dudu originally wanted to ask who was in charge here, but he didn't expect to see a more familiar person.
"This is the strategist beside Third Master Qin?"
It was actually Qin Tianyi, Dudu felt a little surprised but not completely surprised, what's going on?
"It's okay, let's see how it goes." Now that he has arrived, Qin Xuanmo is not in a hurry.
"Is it really Third Master Qin? I've always thought that Qin Sanye is the kind of person who looks smart or a little clever, but is stupid inside, so he is disguised."
Dudu was a little emotional, before the change of children, Qin Xuanyi was indeed the most valued and praised person in the Qin Hou Mansion besides Qin Xuanmo.
But now that I think about it, it may be because Qin Xuanyi has Qin Hou to escort him, and because of the smoothness, some character problems have not been exposed.
But after the changeover incident, Qin Hou changed his mind and did not open a small stove for Qin Xuanyi, and he was affected by this incident, and his treatment plummeted, so he was inevitably irritable.
Once a person is not calm, it is easy to make mistakes, and everyone found that Qin Xuanyi is actually not as good as Qin Siye, who looks average, but is actually practical and steady, and Qin Erye, who is careful.
But when the ore vein happened, Dudu was a little subversive of cognition, it turned out that Qin Xuanyi deliberately made people think so, amazing.
"Anyway, I have been favored by my father for so many years, and I have been taught by many great Confucians, if I am really an idiot, my father should be ashamed."
Qin Xuanmo smiled, although he knew who the person behind the scenes was, Qin Xuanmo still wanted to know more, so he and Dudu entered the mine with peace of mind and started a mining life.
To tell the truth, life in the mine is far worse than in the traffickers, there is not enough to eat, and I have to work every day.
But Dudu is still very happy, he has not been able to lose weight, although it is very cute, but when he sees Xiao Qi like a little poplar, he is still a little envious.
Now that he has lost weight, he is naturally happy, but in fact, Dudu has already begun to lose weight when he was in the Fan family.
At that time, he was worried about Qin Xuanmo, and he was afraid that something would happen, and later the two of them tried to find a way to return to Qindi, but they didn't pay much attention to these at that time.
And now that he works hard every day and lacks food and clothing, this kind of emaciation is conspicuous, and it can be said that Dudu has lost a lot of weight visibly with the naked eye.
Of course, because the foundation is there, compared to other absenteeism, Dudu is still fat, but Qin Xuanmo is very distressed.
"We're going to speed up, your mother was white and fat when she handed you over to me, and if you go back and become black and thin, I can't even explain it."
"It's okay Uncle Qin, I'm better to be thinner, my mother has always been worried that I'm too fat, but it's okay to be thin, so don't be black."
Dudu bared his little white teeth and said, Qin Xuanmo touched his head, although he was tired these days, his internal injuries were mostly good.
Qin Xuanmo estimated that he would be almost in ten days and a half months, although the medicine was all gone, but this kind of injury, he could recover slowly.
The iron mine is divided into two caves, and the people hired by Qin Di are in the other cave, and they are bought in this small cave.
But the mine is not big, the mineral deposits are still very abundant, and a large amount of iron ore can be obtained over the years.
Qin Xuanmo calculated how much iron ore they could mine every day, and how long the iron ore could last.
According to the surrounding surveys, calculating how long this vein has been mined and how long it can be used, Qin Xuanmo had some doubts in his heart.
"Uncle Qin, this deposit is estimated to be empty in another year or two, right? If two caves were discovered at that time, wouldn't they be exposed?"
Qin Xuanmo's calculations are naturally also calculating, although he is not as much as Qin Xuanmo thinks, but there is still a rough estimate.
"Just blow it up."
"It's so big
How much explosives do you need for the mountain? How can they have so much explosives?"
He was stunned, dynamite, he was so favored that he had never been allowed to touch it until now.
"I've been planning since the day of mining, and seven or eight years should be enough."
"So there's a problem with the Weapons Division?"
Even if you want to save up so much gunpowder in seven or eight years, it is relatively difficult, every force will control such a thing as gunpowder, and the weapons department will always wear a lot of attrition, and it is impossible not to find the problem.
"A few years ago, my father was working on a new weapon, so we thought it was normal for the weapons department to wear out gunpowder, and we didn't care.
Later, Mo Lao and the others went there, and the loss has returned to normal over the years, so it seems that they don't need to blow up the mountain, just blow up this vein.
And there were no casualties, the main veins were not affected, and the investigators would not be too careful."
Qin Xuanmo quickly figured it out, it would be a little unsafe to do this, but in fact, it was very possible to hide from the world.
"I see, but from this point of view, there should be a master behind Qin Xuanyi, after all, he can't interfere in the weapons department."
Dudu suddenly realized, Qin Xuanmo nodded, appreciating Dudu's agility, Dudu smiled, indicating that it was all normal play.
The days of mining were boring and tiring, but Qin Xuanmo and Dudu did not have the same distress on their faces as others, which made the other absentees feel that they might not be able to stand the blow and go crazy.
On the other side, Wan Qingkong walked around Yandi several times and didn't find any traces of Qin Xuanmo and Dudu, or no one found their traces, not only Yan, but also Jin and Qin.
Wan Qingkong gritted his teeth, and left Yandi directly with the people to meet Jia Yi and the others.
Even if the people Qin Hou arranged for him were all good hands, he had lost more than half of them after such a long time, and Wan Qingkong felt that it was a bit worth the loss to stay any longer.
Although the others still wanted to find Qin Xuanmo, the leader of this trip was Wan Qingtian, and they could only obey orders.
Wan Qingkong's only son, Dudu, disappeared with Shizi, and they were sure that Wan Qingkong wanted to find Shizi, and their hearts were the same as their own and others, so they obediently evacuated Yandi.
"Mrs. Wan, you don't have any news over there?" A Yi and others have lost a lot of weight these days.
"No, there are only three possibilities for things now, one is that Dudu is gone, and this possibility is the lowest."
Although it is low, it does not mean that there is none, so after Wan Qingkong finished speaking, don't talk about her, it is Jia Yi and they were silent for a moment.
"No, Shizi and Dudu are both longevity statues, and nothing will happen."
Jia Jiu's eyes were a little red, and she had already lit up her fortune-telling skills, Wan Qingkong also nodded, mother and son were connected, she didn't lose the feeling of being an only child.
"I think so too, so there's either that they've been caught or they've returned to Qindi."
"If the prince returns to Qindi, how can he not contact us?"
A shook his head, isn't Shizi a child, is he hiding from them?
"But neither Jin nor Yan found any trace of them finding the prince, and we also investigated, and the other party didn't look like a fraud."
Jia Er frowned, he was in charge of staring at these people, there was really nothing he could do.
"Either these two places are too good to deceive us, or Qin Xuanmo and Dudu have indeed been arrested, but it is a third-party force that has captured them."
Compared with Jin and Yan, Wan Qingkong believed that Qin Xuanmo was captured by a third-party force, but this uncertainty also increased, and it was a little difficult to do.
"A third party? But the other princes have not received any news that they have joined in." Jia Jiu frowned.
"Lady Wan refers to the civil forces?" A Yi asked quickly.
"Well, it's certain that Qin Xuanmo and Dudu were injured, when they left from that fishing village, Qin Xuanmo was just able to walk, so if two people encounter bandits or human traffickers or something, it's too normal for them to be caught."
The most feared thing is that the thieves they encountered found that they didn't have any oil and water and destroyed their corpses directly, even if they didn't have that, Dudu and Qin
Xuan Mo and the others escaped by luck, and I am afraid that their situation will be worse.
"I'll immediately send someone to investigate what forces are near Xiaoling River."
Jia Yi was very fast, and Jia Er and the others were also busy helping to mislead the sight of Jin Di and Yan Di.
Wan Qingkong wrote to Qin Hou about the recent discoveries and today's speculations, and then heard a timid voice.
"Auntie."
"Xiao Qi, come and show my aunt, why have you lost so much weight, you were already thin, and now you are about to lose your appearance."
After Wan Qingkong and Jia Yi and the others converged, they didn't see Xiao Qi for the first time when they were outside, and they rushed back immediately when they heard that Wan Qingkong was coming.
But when he got to the door, Xiao Qi was a little afraid to go in, and it wasn't until everyone was gone that he took a deep breath and entered the door.
Originally, Xiao Qi was afraid to see Wan Qingkong's disappointed and blamed eyes, but he didn't expect the other party to ask Dudu as soon as he saw her, but to care about him, and Xiao Qi's tears couldn't be stopped anymore.
"Auntie, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I didn't take good care of Dudu, I'm useless, I haven't been able to find him."
"What does this have to do with you? Xiao Qi blames himself?"
Wan Qingkong hurriedly hugged Xiao Qi in his arms to comfort him and wiped his tears.
Wan Qingkong knew that since she raised Xiao Qi, this child had looked like a guardian, and now that something happened to Dudu, he naturally blamed himself.
Dudu and Qin Tianlin disappeared in the barracks, or were taken away by someone Qin Xuanmo trusted, it can only be said that he has a problem, what does it have to do with Xiao Qi? z.br>
Thinking about it this way, Qin Xuanmo is really useless, how many times has he been stabbed? If she doesn't have a long memory, she will also affect her son, sure enough, Qin Xuanmo will kill her and Dudu.
"If I could have been more vigilant or slept with Dudu, this wouldn't have happened."
"Nonsense, that's just going to catch you again, we can't do the buy one get one free."
Wan Qingkong shook his head, pulled Xiao Qi to the chair, and looked at Xiao Qi with a very solemn gaze.
