Chapter 658: The Tip of the Iceberg
"I want to know, what kind of existence is the Qin family's 30,000 taels of gold."
Qin Fan asked.
"In fact, the Qin family's wealth is just the tip of the iceberg."
"In the entire Tang Kingdom, the wealth of the Qin family is only the tip of the iceberg, and only the royal family of the Great Tang Kingdom has a huge amount of capital that can support the operation of the Qin family."
"In addition to the Tang Kingdom, there is also a wider continent, in which there are all kinds of large-scale mines rich in resources, and countless ancient families."
Hearing this, Qin Fan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Outside the Tang Kingdom, there is such a vast land, what a magical place.
However, he didn't ask where the Qin family was, he believed that one day, he would be able to explore that continent.
"Qin County Order, if you ask this, do you also plan to go there to hunt for treasures?"
Seeing that Qin Fan didn't ask himself, Liu Fengyue couldn't help but ask curiously.
"That's right."
Qin Fan nodded and said calmly, "That's why I came to ask you."
"Qin County Order, forgive me for taking the liberty of asking you, will you be able to get 30,000 taels of gold?"
Liu Fengyue asked.
"What do you mean by that?"
Qin Fan asked puzzled.
Liu Fengyue smiled and said, "Didn't the Qin County Order find out?"
"This auction of mining rights is obviously a deliberate design by the Qin family to frame you, trying to draw you into the camp of our Qin family."
"So I suspect that the Qin family wants to sell you the mining rights and then let you mine the ore for them."
Hearing this, Qin Fan frowned slightly, he really didn't expect that the Qin family's scheming was so deep.
"This is indeed the case, but the Qin County Order, our Qin family only hopes that the county order will help our Qin family and sell the mining rights of these mines."
"After all, your reputation in the Great Tang Kingdom is too great, and if someone finds out that you have a connection with the Qin family, it will definitely cause some unnecessary disputes."
Liu Fengyue said.
Qin Fan didn't expect that Qin Mengqi would know about this.
"I think Miss Liu should know that I am not an official of the Great Tang Kingdom, so I can't help your Qin family."
"But if Miss Liu is willing to make a move and sell me the mining rights of these ore veins, I can guarantee that the Qin family will not treat your Qin family badly in the future."
Qin Fan said.
Hearing this, Liu Fengyue was silent.
"That's it."
"Then I'll thank you for my father."
For a long time, Liu Fengyue said.
"I won't say more polite words."
Qin Fan said.
"Then I'll take my leave first, and when the mining rights are sold, I will immediately send the gold to the county office."
Liu Fengyue arched her hand, then got up to leave.
After Liu Fengyue left, Qin Fan sat on a chair and began to think about where he was going to buy these mines.
"Why don't you go and find Chu Yunfeng to test it?"
In the end, an idea rose in Qin Fan's heart.
He decided to ask Chu Yunfeng about this matter first.
Of course, he also needed some time to think about how he was going to mine these veins and how he was going to make a lot of money.
Then he left the tavern and walked towards the Chu family.
The Chu family's mansion is located in the south of the city.
Qin Fan walked from the west of the city to the east of the city.
In front of a majestic mansion.
The house occupies most of the street and is extremely spacious and luxurious.
In the hall, Chu Yunfeng was sipping tea.
Seeing Qin Fan coming, Chu Yunfeng put down the teacup in his hand and asked lightly, "Qin Fan, what is the matter with you coming to me?"
"I heard that the Chu family is mining a mineral, I don't know if it's true or fake?"
Qin Fan asked straight to the point.
"That's pretty well-informed."
Chu Yunfeng said lightly.
"Young Master Chu, I want to ask, where did that mineral come from?"
Qin Fan continued to ask.
"You can ask my grandfather about this."
Chu Yunfeng smiled and said.
Hearing this, Qin Fan raised his eyebrows, and suddenly had a trace of speculation in his heart, and his face couldn't help but become a little unnatural.
"The Chu family is doing this, I'm afraid they want to monopolize the mineral mining rights on the side of the Tang Kingdom, right?"
"In this way, the people of the Tang Kingdom can get a large amount of income, reduce their burden, and even improve their living conditions."
Qin Fan guessed.
"It seems that you have a pretty thorough understanding of the Tang Kingdom."
"Not bad."
"But unfortunately, I have already told my grandfather the news, but he did not admit it, you want to know the origin of the minerals? I advise you to die of this heart."
Chu Yunfeng shook his head and said.
Hearing this, Qin Fan was silent.
He didn't expect it to be this kind of result.
He originally wanted to use the Chu family to help him complete the task, but now it seems that there is no such possibility.
However, Qin Fan did not give up because of this.
Since he can't rely on the Chu family, he can use his network to find out the secrets of minerals.
"But Young Master Chu, I still have something I want to ask you."
Qin Fan said.
"Say."
Chu Yunfeng said.
"Where did this mine come from?"
Qin Fan said.
He still had a glimmer of fantasy in his heart.
If the Chu family does not have such ability, they will sell the mining rights of the mine, and maybe they will still have the opportunity to obtain a part of the ore.
"You don't know where this mine came from?"
Chu Yunfeng was stunned.
"I learned about it from a friend."
Qin Fan said lightly.
"Hehe, I thought that the origin of this mine had spread all over the Tang Kingdom."
"Don't hide it from Brother Qin, this mine is a mineral discovered by our Chu family two years ago."
"This mineral is still very valuable."
Chu Yunfeng said.
"Minerals?"
Hearing this, Qin Fan frowned.
"Yes, you know about the mines?"
Suddenly, Chu Yunfeng's eyes lit up and he said.
"That's right."
Qin Fan nodded.
"That's good, we can work together."
"When the time comes, I will hand over this mineral to you to mine, and at the same time, I will help you with all the information, including the situation of the mineral deposits."
"I just don't know, is Brother Qin willing to pay, or is he willing to share the mining rights with me?"
"Of course I'm willing to pay, as long as you can give me the tools of the vein."
Qin Fan said.
Chu Yunfeng smiled, "Brother Qin, since you are so happy, then let's talk about the conditions."
"Oh? What conditions?"
Qin Fan asked.
"Qin Fan, I want you to help me do a few things, and after the matter is completed, I will give you the mining rights of the ore vein."
Chu Yunfeng said.
"No."
"I want the ore vein, and the mining rights cannot be handed over to you."
Qin Fan refused without hesitation.
The reason why he agreed to cooperate with the Chu family was because the Chu family was able to mine ore and obtain a large amount of gold.
But what he didn't expect was that the Chu family actually started the idea of a mineral vein.
"If you don't agree, you have to agree, or else..."
