Chapter Eighty-Six: Deceit
A month later, Hua Houwei's subordinates had completed preliminary surveying and mapping. Mountains, rivers and lakes are all mapped at elevation, and even larger minerals are also marked. The magnet mountain promised by Ganao was also collected by Huahou Wei! The two also agreed that Ganao was responsible for mining, Huahou Wei paid the wages, and the ore was transported to Shenmu for settlement. Ordos has a lot of coal, a lot of nitrate, and a lot of alkali, how could Hua Houwei let it go easily? A set of glass tea sets in exchange for the mining rights of miscanthus salt, alkali, peat, and coal, Huahou Wei had already calculated, and planned to build Ordos into a grassland pearl, turn herdsmen into mining workers, and continuously deliver resources for Daming.
When it came time to break up, Balsborough was a little reluctant. He has reaped a lot of benefits from Hua Houwei, and after a few months, if the iron ore is sent over, a large number of materials will enter Ordos, and there will be no need to worry about the white hair disaster. After a few years of recuperation like this, who of the brothers can be as strong as him? Dayan Khan is not unthinkable to do it!
Hua Houwei waved his hand towards Ganao: "Ganao! Goodbye! Remember to hold my token, and someone will answer you! ”
"The hosts! Ganau will never forget! ”
When the convoy was far away, Ganao's figure could no longer be seen, and Mu Bin sneered: "Your Highness, barbarians are used to treachery, so they have to guard against it!" ”
Hua Houwei nodded: "That's right!" Master Mu, get ready. Before entering Shuofang, you must fight a big battle! These steppe people, don't cry when they don't see the coffin! ”
Mu Bin looked at Hua Houwei in surprise: "Your Highness, you know why you are still back..."
"Hehe, it's the same as the real thing with Ganao, and you put in a set of tea sets and a wolf statue? Hehe, Master Mu, it takes strength to be reasonable! Prairie people are reasonable, but you must have the strength to be reasonable, otherwise why should others reason with you? If you don't hurt them, where will the business come from? ”
Mu Bin shook his head for a while: "I don't understand!" The minister didn't understand what kind of chess His Highness was playing. ”
"Haha! Actually, it's nothing. I just want to solve the border problem of thousands of years, so that the grassland and the Han people can fight side by side! ”
Mu Bin continued to shake his head: "Your Highness, with all due respect, it's too difficult, I'm afraid I can't do it!" ”
"Hehe, even if I say it now, you won't believe it, Master Mu. Wait and see, within twenty years, the grassland will cry and shout and pounce at the feet of Da Ming, begging Da Ming to take them to play! Hua Houwei's eyes flashed, and he seemed to see the near future through time and space.
Mu Bin couldn't help shaking his head: "Your Highness, the minister doesn't dare to agree." The minister is close to the age of confusion, and he can still afford to wait for twenty years, and the minister must be staring at it with wide eyes! ”
Wang Zhi smiled: "Lao Mou, teach you to be a good man, don't bet with His Highness, otherwise you will be in pain and doubt yourself?" Oh, IQ! It's the brain! ”
Mu Bin glared, and just wanted to refute, Hua Houwei shook his head with a smile: "It's not interesting to win you, what is this?" In my vision, this is just the first step in a long journey! The world is vast, and there are still many rich lands waiting for the Ming Dynasty to occupy overseas, Lord Mu, live well, strive for a long life, and see how the Ming Dynasty dominates the world! ”
"Good! Nachen just wait and see! Your Highness, in another sixty miles is the city of Tongwan. ”
"Oh? What kind of vigorous city is it? ”
"His Highness is Helian Bobo."
"Who wants to remember what is not worth mentioning? Speed up, I have a hunch that Tongwancheng is the base for us to clean up the grassland barbarians! ”
Arsuborot was the fourth son of Dayan Khan and the fourth brother of Ganao. After listening to the news of Tanma's feedback, he sneered: "Ganao? What a shame on the Golden Family! Hmph, Jinong, Jinong should also be replaced. Dakluba, carry my Da Xu, let's go to Tongwancheng, and when we catch Zhu Houwei's prince, let's go to meet my third brother, Mongolian Dajinong! ”
Iron hooves are flying, and smoke and dust are everywhere. At the same moment, Balsborot, oh, now called Ganau, looked south, and the corners of his mouth hooked an arc: "Dear master, help me one more time." Or kill that nasty Alsuborot, or be killed by Alsuborot, I won't suffer! Hahaha! ”
At dusk, Hua Hou Wei, the head of Tongwan City, was holding a telescope, looking at the smoke and dust in the distance, and the corners of his mouth turned up: "Grandma's fierce!" You won't be honest if you know! ”
Wang Zhi also held a pair of binoculars and smiled: "Come on!" It's time for a refresh! Alas, Your Highness, our bullets are very expensive, this time, it is thousands of taels! It's really distressing! ”
Huahou Wei pinched his teeth and flowers, there was no way, Hongzhi did not agree to expand production, for fear of technology leakage. It's all fucking semi-automated production, and it's no wonder that the cost doesn't soar! Forget it, endure it for a few more years, and wait for Zhu Houzhao to take the throne. It's good that Hongji is really good to himself, and he's embarrassed to rebel. "Lao Wang, I won't be able to run out when I go back this time. At least it must have been when my dad was alive. But I must be crowned a king, where do you say my fief is? ”
Wang Zhi groaned: "Your Highness, I estimate that Guangxi is the most likely." The main reason is that His Royal Highness is young, and he has not used it for many years. Your grandmother is from our Dayao Mountain, the emperor misses the old, and your grandmother has not had a good life for a few days, so I hope you can help your relatives. ”
Hua Houwei sighed and frowned: "Guangxi? Depend on! A place for the poor to drop scum. Forget it, I should pay off my dad's debts. Lao Wang, how old are you? Is there anyone else in my hometown? ”
"Heh, I was only a few years old when I came out, and I asked someone to go back later. The family is gone, how can the court be soft on the rebellion? Even if the family is alive, they don't know where to run. Wang Zhi was silent for a moment when he said this, and continued: "It's that your grandmother's family is quite prosperous, and your father's family is not bad, and he takes good care of his uncle's family. There are no big officials, and they are also dominant. ”
"Oh, life in troubled times is like grass, Lao Wang, I won't comfort you. Now, although it is said to be a peaceful period, there are also people who can't survive. Lao Wang, find a daughter-in-law, recognize a son, and I'll do the rest. ”
Wang Zhi turned his head to look at Hua Houwei, was silent for a long time, and shook his head slightly: "Forget it, there are so many of my godsons who are quite filial, so I won't delay others." ”
Hua Houwei shook his head: "It's different!" Forget it, you don't have to worry about it. I've done it for you. This time the matter in Puzhou is not over yet, didn't Mu Bin say that Yang Yiqing went to Puzhou a while ago? I wrote him a letter. Lao Wang, you should accumulate virtue and do good, and save people from fire and water, which is not bad. ”
The wrinkles on Wang Zhi's face trembled, and he didn't speak again, just looked into the distance again.
"Okay, that's when you agree! Yo, it's coming fast, huh? Shan Qing, Shan Qing, are you ready? ”
"Master, you're all set! Just wait for the meat to come to the pot! ”
