Chapter 114: Meet Xun Shuang
It's all money, Wang Gang's eyes suddenly lit up.
"How much bronze ore can be harvested in a day now?"
"Fifteen units can be collected in a day, and one unit can be sold for 180,000 copper coins, and there are more than two million in a day. It's just that as the pit gets deeper and deeper, I'm afraid it's hard to mine so much."
For the mining of bronze ore, Chu Yu has always been very careful, at present, Yanmen Pass and Ningwu Pass have less and less income every day, and can only barely maintain daily consumption, only Tongguan is relatively rich in resources, and the solid bamboo has gradually been cut down, but fortunately, the bamboo can be mined again in two years.
Wang Gang also understands that if he can't open new levels or find new resources, I'm afraid it won't take half a year, and he will have to eat his old book.
When Wang Gang returned to Ruyang Houfu, it was getting late, and Xi Zhicai and Fan Chong were discussing something in the front yard, and when they saw Wang Gang coming back, they hurriedly stood up and saluted.
"Zhicai doesn't have to be polite, just returned to Luoyang, there are many things, please forgive me for the neglect"
"Ruyang is welcome"
Wang Gang roughly told him about today's Chaoyang, and Fan Chong fell into deep thought after listening to it.
"I'm afraid General He won't give up easily, and the general still needs to be careful"
"How long does it take for He Miao to arrive in Luoyang?"
Wang Gang asked, he didn't have a good impression of He Miao, I heard that this person was greedy for money and lustful, let's see if I can get him something to do, so that he has no time to take care of himself.
"It should take another month and a half, the general's will take the initiative"
"Yes, this He Miao will definitely trouble me again when he enters Beijing, it is better to take the initiative to attack" Wang Gang's eyes showed a fierce light.
"I'm afraid it's not appropriate, the general of the chariot is returning triumphantly, in case of any accident, the court will definitely investigate thoroughly, I am afraid it will be unfavorable to the Marquis of Ruyang" Xi Zhicai hurriedly spoke to dissuade.
"Be careful"
"Ruyang waits for three thoughts, if you don't die by fighting a snake, but are bitten by a snake, won't you find yourself bored?"
Xi Zhicai still wants to persuade again.
"Zhicai will leave this matter alone and leave it to Fan Chong to deal with"
Fan Chong nodded, Xi Zhicai wanted to say something, but Fan Chong gave him a look.
Looking at Wang Gang's back walking towards the backyard, Fan Chong spoke.
"Brother Zhicai didn't find that the general was abnormal?"
"It's a little different from before"
"He will not listen to the persuasion of others today, but will consult again tomorrow."
Xi Zhicai nodded thoughtfully.
Wang Gang arrived in the backyard and saw Cai Yan enjoying the shade in the gazebo in the backyard, and Qing'er next to him was still holding some fruits and vegetables.
"The husband is back"
Wang Gang passed, held Cai Yan, and glanced at Cai Yan's lower abdomen again, Cai Yan was much plumper than before, but if he didn't look carefully, he still couldn't see that he was pregnant.
"Yan'er, I want you to discuss something for my husband"
"Is it Miss Seki's business?"
"Hmm"
"Yan'er is a concubine, she can't be the master, the husband still has to discuss it with the county lord" After Cai Yan finished speaking, his eyes were a little dim.
"The county lord has already said that I am going to take Yue'er over in three days, and you can arrange it."
Although Wang Gang felt a little sorry for Cai Yan, there was no way now, Cai Yan was still the mistress of this family, and she could only be responsible for the matter of taking concubines.
"The concubine knows"
Wang Gang saw that Cai Yan's face was a little unsightly, so he stepped forward and hugged Cai Yan's waist and let Cai Yan lean on his body, and the two of them were like this, quietly watching the sunset and nightfall. Wang Gang helped Cai Yan and walked towards the room.
"Husband doesn't have to accompany his concubine tonight, he can go to Sister Ning'er's place"
"Sister Ning'er," Wang Gang asked with some confusion.
"It's Miss Zhang Ning, the concubine has arranged for her to live in the East Courtyard"
"What am I doing with her, she's just temporarily living in Ruyang Houfu, not me......"
Wang Gang was a little powerless to explain.
"Doesn't the husband like Miss Zhang Ning?"
"It's not a matter of liking it or not, Zhang Ning has superb medical skills, and he also has the grace of life for me, so he originally stayed in the house in case anyone gets seriously ill, so that she can be treated"
"That's the concubine who misunderstood her husband, and that Miss Zhang came to live there"
Ruyang Houfu originally had five courtyards, and some guards lived in the front yard to receive guests. Fan Chong and Xi Zhicai lived there, there were two small courtyards in the back, Cai Yan lived in the west courtyard, and the east courtyard was originally reserved for Zhang Yue'er. Further inside is the backyard, which is the courtyard of the county lord of Huanting, and it is also the main courtyard. The backyard is the largest and there is also a small garden.
But now that Zhang Ning lives in the East Courtyard, Cai Yan is a little difficult to do for a while.
"Let Zhang Ning go to live in the backyard, she likes to be quiet anyway"
Wang Gang also had a big head for a while, he originally thought that Ruyang Houfu was big enough, but he didn't expect that only four women couldn't live there, no wonder the county lord of Huanting was reluctant to marry, so he had to ask the Queen Mother for Ziwei Palace.
"The county lord."
"Don't talk about that, let's rest early"
Wang Gang rubbed his forehead, he got up a little too early today, and wanted to rest early, so he hugged Cai Yan and fell asleep.
Until the third pole of the sun, Wang Gang opened his eyes, because there is no need for an early dynasty today, and Wang Gang is also happy to be idle.
Wang Gang is going to visit Mr. today, and there are many people who have just returned to Luoyang to meet, so they can only come one by one, and the first one is of course Xun Shuang, and it just so happens that he still has some things to ask Xun Shuang.
Wang Gang is still here for the first time, Xun Shuang's home is in Dongcheng District, not far from Cai Yong's home, there are some families living here, and the streets are full of luxurious carriages, which are not much better than Gongmen Street.
In a small alley, Wang just stepped out of the carriage, and the plaque at the door read Bamboo Garden.
There were no guards at the door, Wang Gang pushed the wooden door and walked in, the eyes were green, the bamboo in the courtyard grew very luxuriantly, and there was a path paved with stone slabs in the middle, which stretched inward in a zigzag. Wang Gang's footsteps startled some birds, chirped one or two, and flew into the air.
Passing through the bamboo forest, there is a gazebo inside, some climbing vines are planted around the pavilion, covering the entire pavilion below, Xun Shuang is reading in the gazebo, and there are a few students next to him, who are also immersed in reading.
Xun Shuang raised his head and saw Wang Gang coming in, standing up and showing a kind smile.
"Ziyi is here"
"Wang Gang has seen Mr."
Several students also raised their heads and looked at Wang Gang, with a slight trace of disdain in their eyes, but they still stood up and saluted Wang Gang.
"A few of you go back first" Xun Shuang said to a few students, and a few of them said goodbye and left, looking at Wang Gang's eyes with some contempt before leaving. Wang Gang touched his nose in embarrassment.
"Ziyi is here, let's have something"
"It's the student's poor studies that have ruined the reputation of the gentleman, and the gentleman is asked to punish him"
"I already know about Yingchuan, Ziyi doesn't have to worry about it, he is only famous, he hasn't let go of his heart as a teacher, although he is your husband, he didn't teach you any knowledge, and it's also the teacher's fault."
