The sunset outside the window is like blood, and the trees after the scorching sun are still singing cicadas, and a series of loud voices seem to be complaining about the heat of the day.

The two sat opposite each other in the window, Qiao Wei leisurely enjoyed the hot tea, but Xie Chunfu didn't dare to pick up the tea in front of him.

Mrs. Wu is already old, she has been serving in close quarters recently, and she knows in her heart that Mrs. Wu seems to be full of energy, but in fact, her heart has been hollowed out.

Seeing that my food intake is slowly decreasing, I am much more in bed than when I get out of bed.

Once Old Madam Wu sleeps inside, her situation in the Sun family will only be more embarrassing. At that time, if Qiao Wei dislikes her, how can she protect Miao'er?

Xie Chunfu finally gritted his teeth and bowed his head in front of Qiao Wei, "Please Madame teach me!" ”

Qiao Wei gently put down the tea in her hand, she was not surprised by Xie Chunfu's choice.

"My sister doesn't have to be so polite. There is an old lady behind you to protect you, and I am afraid that this Juxu Pavilion will not be in your eyes. ”

Xie Chunfu understood, Qiao Wei was asking her to worship her name!

Only when she cuts off her own way can Qiao Wei use her with confidence.

Qiao Wei took Sun Wei as a coercion and asked her to make the knife in Qiao Wei's hand, I have to say that borrowing a knife to kill people is really ruthless.

Xie Chunfu once again got acquainted with the woman in front of her, she looked like a fairy, but her heart was ruthless enough, she used to think that Qiao Wei was weak, and she really looked away.

But now, there is no way out.

"I see."

After Xie Chunfu thanked Qiao Wei again, "That's the ...... Can you let me bring it back first......

Qiao Wei smiled and refused her request, "It's good for Xiao'er to be here, don't you see that Deng'er is playing well with him!" You still devote yourself to serving the old lady, which is the fulfillment of the filial piety of the prince. ”

Sun Miao was smiling happily as he grabbed a cloth bag, revealing the pink gums that had not yet grown full teeth. Under the care of a nursing mother, she was still babbling something with Sun Deng.

Xie Chunfu looked sad for a while.

She slowly got up, "I see. ”

Youye said that Rongsheng and his son asked to see Qiao Wei.

Qiao Wei felt strange, "They don't ask to see the prince, what are they doing when they come to see me?" ”

Youye also said that he didn't know, "Does Madame want to see you?" ”

Qiao Wei glanced at Sun Deng, although there was still a big bag swollen on his head, it didn't affect him to play happily.

Qiao Wei turned his head, "See." ”

The process of Bai Hong's strategy cannot be delayed, Rong Sheng, a person who is afraid of society, a person who can't speak clearly, but is in a hurry to see him at this time, there must be something important.

Sure enough, Rongsheng brought Qiao Wei an important news, and Rongsheng's son Rongli directly unfolded a picture and put it in front of Qiao Wei.

Qiao Wei carefully distinguished, "This is ...... Map. ”

I just can't see where.

"This is a place in Huiji County, this mountain is called Baishi Mountain by the locals, its mountains are continuous, the peaks are towering, there are many plains under the mountain, the water power is grand, and it can be a place for steelmaking." Rong Li pointed to the map and introduced, "There are sparsely populated here, but there are descendants of Ou who live in seclusion, most of whom are craftsmen of various workers, and they can do craftsman things for the prince and his wife." ”

Baishi Mountain, the middle goose of the future generations! Qiao Wei smiled, she knows this place well!

The land is vast and sparsely populated, the water resources are relatively rich, and the mineral resources are not much, but the mining difficulty is relatively light, and it should barely be able to supply the needs of steelmaking.

It's just that the first thing to solve is the traffic ......

The second is......

Qiao Wei asked, "I remember, this should be the land of Shanyue." ”

Since the Yellow Turban Turmoil, Yan Baihu, Zulang and other local sect commanders have risen in strength, and they are unwilling to accept the king's rent and occupy the mountain as the king.

They can grow grain in the mountains, and even produce copper and iron in the mountains, so they often cast their own armor, live in large scattered and small settlements, learn martial arts and rely on mountain hazards, and are also dissatisfied with the control of the Sun family.

When Sun Jian and Sun Ce were there, they often clashed with each other.

"Yes, it is precisely because the mountain people forge their own armor that there are many places to cast in it, as long as they can occupy this place, they can smelt the first furnace of steel without more than a month." Rongli's proposal is indeed heartwarming.

But if the land of Shanyue is so easy to conquer, it will not become a problem for the Sun family.

"You seem to be familiar with the things that go about the land of Shanyue." Qiao Wei asked.

Rong Li's eyes flickered slightly, but after a while, he finally confided the truth.

"This place is actually the home of the villain's family. After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the men under the Pan thief captured me and several brothers, and together with my mother, they cast weapons for them. When Rong Li talked about this, his expression was sad, and even his voice trembled. My eldest brother refused, so they killed him instantly. The corpse was thrown directly into the iron-making furnace, burning to the point that nothing remained.

There were also two brothers who were afraid, so in order to protect me and my mother, they agreed to forge weapons for them. ”

"And then? Did you escape? ”

Mo Sangongzi once said that they came from Handan.

Rong Li nodded, "I'm young, and they don't guard against me, so I'll bring them food in the ironworks." So one day, while they were fighting against the encirclers, my brother hid me in a cave.

When they found out that our family wanted to escape, they cut off my brother's leg and killed my mother. I was the only one who hid well, and they didn't find it, so they could flee all the way north to Handan and find my father. ”

This past was too painful for their father and son, Rong Li was almost about to cry, and Rong Sheng on the side hung his head and was silent, with sadness between his eyebrows and eyes.

Rong Li endured the grief in his heart and looked up at Qiao Wei, "Madam, I proposed to set up the Baihong Division Gold Field in Baishi Mountain, although it is selfish, but this place is indeed the most suitable place. In addition to the suitable place, there are actually many descendants of Ou Shi in the land of Baishi, who have been engaged in the crafts of craftsmen for generations, and I have observed in the Handan Sijin Field, in fact, many craftsmen are said to be very powerful, but the actual skills are not as good as the craftsmen in my mountain land.

Many of them were captured by the thieves and forced to create armor for them, which looked unremarkable but was much tougher than ordinary weapons. These skills are not passed on, if the lady can save them and let them build armor for the Sun family's army, it will definitely increase the strength of the Sun family's army. ”

Qiao Wei naturally knew the importance of this matter, but this matter was a big matter, and it was not something she could decide on alone.

"You said that the land of White Rock Mountain is inhabited by many descendants of the Ou clan. Are you? She remembered that Mo Sangongzi also said that his ancestors were also descendants of the Ou clan and belonged to Mo Xie's branch, "Or, is Mo Sangongzi?" ”

Qiao Wei: Mrs. Wu can wash her neck, I'm ready to do it.
