Chapter 236: The panicked Li Yan, the calm Meng Shu

Liu Chan took the black thing suspiciously, and the place he touched in his hand immediately turned black.

Isn't this just coal?

I thought it was some kind of strange thing, but it turned out to be just coal. Coal was not a rarity during the Three Kingdoms period, when it was called charcoal and was widely used for heating, ironmaking, and other activities.

Wait a minute...... Could it be said?

"Uncle Zhuge didn't you discover the carboniferous mine?" Liu Chan's eyes lit up.

A piece of coal is not a big deal, but if you find a coal mine, it is different......

Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "After Liang led the army to cross Lu, when the rest of Yuewang County was collected in the south, a team of soldiers under Li Yan found that there were black stones exposed in the mountains west of Lushui and north of the flood. ”

Liu Chan was overjoyed, and then thought of something again, and asked excitedly: "There are many big trees over there, and the white flocculent flies after the fruit cracks?" ”

This time Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, and Fang said: "That's right, the prince has never been here, how can he know?" ”

Liu Chan had already thought about how to deal with this: "When the Zhao family was a merchant in Nanzhong, I ordered him to remember the geography and scenery, and they had heard the people here mention this place, but they didn't know where it was. ”

Zhuge Liang suddenly said: "It turns out that this place has been discovered a long time ago, but for some reason it has not been exploited." ”

"Maybe the one who found it is the one who is Yiren, and he can't recognize this coal." Liu Chan said with a smile, "The cotton wool in this fruit can keep out the cold, if Uncle Zhuge arrives there a month or two in the morning, you can see its tree flowers blooming like fire, and its flowers can also be eaten to satisfy hunger or medicine." ”

This flower and this tree all have great origins, the tree is a kapok tree, and the flower is kapok, also called ...... Panzhihua!

"The prince is well-read, knows a lot, and there are some things that are not as good as Liang." Zhuge Liang smiled with relief.

Liu Chan waved his hand and said: "My father ordered Uncle Zhuge and Master Yi to teach me since I was a child, so that I have today's knowledge. By the way, we can recruit people to excavate and explore there, and there may still be other minerals and stones available. ”

The coal reserves of the Panzhihua vein are hundreds of millions of tons, and even if the prospecting and mining technology at this time cannot be fully utilized, what can be mined is definitely enough for production and life.

It's a pity that with the rise of Pu Yuan's forging talent, Liu Chan also remembered the particularity of Panzhihua Iron Mine.

Tens of billions of tons of iron ore here are all "vanadium titanomagnetite", and its separation is difficult, and many experts in later generations have tackled the separation of iron, and it has not yet achieved efficient comprehensive utilization.

As for today's level of technology, don't even think about it.

However, coal, copper, and granite are still valuable resources that can be exploited today.

Liu Chan couldn't wait to send the Yong family to the small coal kiln to dig coal......

After that, Liu Chan introduced the resources of Yizhou County to Zhuge Liang.

In the hands of the Yong family alone, they have gold and silver mines, as well as salt ponds (salt wells).

Bashu gold and silver minerals are not rich, Zhuge Liang said after entering Shu that "Han Jiajin, Zhu Ti silver, mining is not enough for self-consumption".

Although there are gold and silver mines in Hanjia County and Juti County, if they are mined by manpower, they will not even be able to recover the cost......

Nowadays, the gold and silver mines in Yizhou County are much richer than the gold and silver sand at the bottom of the river.

Needless to say, the value of salt is not very high, but it is something that everyone can't live without.

Since the Western Han Dynasty, the salt and iron official camp has begun, and the Lao Liu Group is naturally no exception.

"There are still fields and fishings in this place, and if the utilization efficiency can be improved, the people in Nanzhong can have enough food."

Dianchi Lake and Fuxian Lake in Yizhou County can also provide a large number of aquatic products, if it were not for the Yongjia family who only cared about self-fertilizer and did not do personnel, how could the people at the bottom of this place be so poor that they could not be clothed.

"Yuewang County has an abundant water system and plains, which can teach the local people to cultivate rice and grow rice, even if it is not enough to supply other places, it is enough to feed themselves." Zhuge Liang also introduced the results of his investigation in Yuewang County, "The land that cannot be cultivated can also teach the people to grow mulberry and silkworms, and the skills of silk weaving." ”

After this battle, Liu Chan and others also had a fuller understanding of the distribution of resources in Nanzhong.

If it can be used well, this is not only not a wild and barren land, but can even be said to be a natural treasure trove.

If you want the smooth development of agriculture, commerce and handicrafts here, a stable and harmonious environment is the first prerequisite.

It's still rioting and rebelling at every turn like before, and it's still developing a hammer.

"Regarding the governance of Nanzhong, I have a few ideas that I would like to discuss with Uncle Zhuge ." Liu Chan said.

"Prince, please speak."

"First of all, the Yong family and the Huo family can't stay, the Huo family has been solved, as for the Yong family, I want to ......"

The two talked about the future development and personnel arrangements, and they could not stop talking until the guards came to inform the whole army and the generals that they were in place, and only when the two of them arrived and began to celebrate the feast, the two of them suspended the discussion.

……

"This time, General Li burned the main force of Gaoding, killed the thief leader, and made the first contribution to the Western Route Army, and General Gu Jing had a cup." Liu Chan walked up to Li Yan with a wine cup.

Li Yan hurriedly got up and said: "This is all Zhuge Military Master's clever calculation, Yan just did his part, how dare he take credit." ”

Liu Chan said with a smile: "Huh~ Meritorious is meritorious, General Li doesn't have to be too humble, Gu will write a battle report later, and ask his father for a reward for the general." ”

[Li Yan: Current favorability 0]

Li Yan's Opinion +5 (5)

"Thank you, Prince." Li Yan bowed and arched his hand.

Liu Chan held the wine cup in front of him, and carefully looked at this person who ruined the great opportunity of Prime Minister Zhuge in history for the Northern Expedition.

It has become a mystery why he used such clumsy means to harm others and himself in history, but Liu Chan only hopes that he will not choose the wrong choice again this time.

Li Yan was stared at by the young prince in front of him, and he only felt that his eyes were like a sharp sword, piercing into the darkest place in his heart.

As an ambitious, ambitious, and capable person, he naturally paid much attention to Liu Chan, whether it was the stubborn nonsense in the past, or the undefeated courage later, he had heard of it.

But it's one thing to hear about it, it's another thing to see it with your own eyes.

When the dialogue is just now, it makes people feel like a spring breeze, warm like the spring sun.

At this moment, he stared at him as if he was standing barefoot in the biting cold wind in winter......

Li Yan's sweat came down from his head, and he couldn't hold it back, so he said, "Tai, the prince, ......?" But what's wrong with the minister? ”

Only then did Liu Chan retract that scrutinizing gaze, and said meaningfully: "No, General Li is too worried. As long as the general continues to keep to himself, report to the country, and show mercy to Li Shu, he must not work for his own selfishness, and do not be jealous of the virtuous and jealous for his own desires...... It's my Han talent. ”

Li Yan's face suddenly turned pale, and his heart beat like a drum.

At first, he was indeed dissatisfied with Zhuge Liang of the Jingzhou faction, and wanted to find something wrong......

In Qianwei's office, he did use public wealth and civil power to build a mansion for himself.

But one thing he didn't declare, and one prince never went to Qianwei, the two of them had never seen it before, why could they see through it at once?

Li Yan suddenly felt that the prince was mysterious and unpredictable, and also remembered the rumors that had become more and more divine in Nanzhong recently, and immediately knelt on the ground in panic, and said suddenly: "Yan Ding should change his past wrongs, save his own body, think about his own mistakes, and dare not do this again!" ”

Liu Chan immediately stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile: "Lone is just a word of encouragement, and General Li has not committed such a mistake, why do you say this?" Come on, I'll give you a drink. ”

Fang Cai's piercing sharp gaze was like a fake, and the fourteen-year-old boy in front of him had a friendly smile on his face, and he couldn't see the slightest sense of blame.

It's just that he didn't dare to treat this prince as a teenager at this time.

The king is old, and this is his future master.

After a glass of wine that he didn't know what it tasted like, Li Yan began to seriously think about how to be an official in the future so that he could be reused under this subordinate......

……

Outside the cheerful drinking and feasting to celebrate the achievement, Yonghong and the Meng brothers in the county government prison were relatively speechless.

Yonghong looked at the wild vegetables and insects in front of him and wanted to cry without tears, he ate this all the way when he fled, and he still ate this when he was imprisoned......

Looking at Meng Huo's side, he was actually very calm, as if he was eating lamb leg beef.

"Brother Meng, you ......"

Bang!

"Oops!"

Before he could speak, Meng Huobo's big fist smashed into his eyes, directly smashing out a black circle.

"Meng Huo! Don't you dare...... Oops, oops, don't fight, ah! ”

Meng Shu still seemed to be puzzled, and went up to greet him with an old fist.

It wasn't until the sound of Yonghong's wailing was quieted that the guards outside knocked on the cell door: "What's the noise!" Stay honest, or be careful of the flesh and skin! ”

Yonghong's tears were about to fall when he heard this, I just stayed honestly, and I didn't suffer less?!

"Yes, he did it first!" One front tooth was missing, and Yonghong, who was a little leaky in his speech, pointed at Meng Huodao, who was still glaring angrily.

It's a pity that the guard ignored him, and only left one sentence: "No matter how honest you are, the two of you will be whipped together!" ”

He went out without looking back.

"Waste." Meng Shu said disdainfully and sat back.

Yonghong didn't dare to do anything more after the guard's warning, and immediately sneered: "You are not a waste, why are you here?" You're so steady! ”

"Hmph, I'm still useful to Liu Chan, I can't die, why don't I be practical?" Meng Shu sneered, "It's a pity that you are dead." ”

Yonghong: "......"

This Meng Huo seems to be much clearer than the one in the romance......
