Chapter 276: Turned into an empty shell

However, on his own, his strength is too weak, and he can't do it for the time being, so he can only find another way.

Chu Heng wants to participate in the succession, so he can just cooperate with him.

Both of them are too weak now, if the two cooperate and borrow from each other, in this way, the two of them may have the possibility of success.

When Ah Chou heard his words, his heart immediately moved.

"What chips do you have that can help you?"

Gu Yunzhi's voice was slow, "An iron mine that can refine the weapons of 20,000 soldiers, is this chip big enough?" ”

Ah Chou and Sang Sang's eyes widened instantly.

Iron ore has always been strictly controlled by the imperial court, and it is a felony to open iron ore privately.

Because iron tools are the main material for refining weapons, if you casually open iron ore privately, wouldn't it be a mess?

Moreover, the iron ore in his mouth can also refine the weapons of 20,000 soldiers, which is already a very large iron ore.

If there really is such an iron mine, then they even have all the weapons!

Ugly couldn't believe it, "Do you really have such a big iron mine?" ”

Gu Yunzhi nodded, "It's not bad." That iron ore mine is in our territory in South Vietnam, which is mountainous, and it is located in a hidden location deep in the mountains, and we can completely mine and smelt it quietly. ”

Ah Chou was both excited and a little skeptical, "Since the iron mine is so hidden, how do you know about it?" ”

Gu Yunzhi showed a somewhat sad smile on his face, and said in a difficult tone: "It was my uncle who found out, and he left this news and a group of people to me." ”

As for the uncle and mother, they have already been given by Gu Yunxu......

Gu Yunzhi calmed down his emotions, and looked at Ah Ugly's eyes full of determination.

"Like you, I have a family feud and I am too small to do it on our own.

If we join forces, integrate resources with each other, and break through them one by one, then this matter will naturally be much easier. ”

When Ugly heard his chips, the balance in his heart was completely tilted.

I can't refuse his offer at all, and there is no need to refuse.

Because it's a win-win.

Ah Chou did not discuss with Chu Heng, and had already directly accepted this matter on his behalf.

"Well, we've got a good deal! If the iron ore you mentioned really exists, then when your cousin ascends the throne, he will definitely send troops to South Vietnam and snatch back everything that belongs to you. ”

Gu Yunzhi looked at her and said slowly, "I believe in you." ”

Tang Cheng hurriedly hurried up, and insisted on rushing to the original itinerary of seven or eight days in five days, and he handed over his letters and tokens according to the address provided by Ah Chou, and soon saw Chu Heng.

Chu Heng talked with him alone for more than an hour, and when Tang Cheng came out again, the whole person was resolute and desperate.

After resting for one night, Chu Heng set off with Tang Cheng and came to Jiangding Mansion.

It took seven days, they rushed back from Bizhou, Chu Heng only sent someone to send a message to Ah Chou, and then went with Tang Cheng to deal with Tang Qing's affairs.

Chu Heng is a prince anyway, and this idea will not be handled badly.

When Chu Heng was dealing with Tang Qing's affairs, Tang Cheng also began to arrange other matters non-stop.

If their Tang family wants to survive, they have to give up some industries, and in order to convince the people above that what they give up must be a lucrative industry, so that the Tang family will make the illusion of rapid defeat.

Of course, he was deeply saddened in his heart, but in order to protect the foundation and future of the Tang family, he could only endure the pain of making this decision.

Three days later, good news finally came from Chu Heng's side, Tang Qing's qualification problem was successfully solved, and he was able to participate in the imperial examination smoothly.

This news was like a booster for Tang Cheng, which made his originally depressed mood suddenly lifted.

As long as this matter is resolved, then the Tang family will not suffer much loss.

After this incident, Tang Qing's heart has also changed, he originally believed that his family background was good and his knowledge was good, but in fact, he was more or less arrogant in his heart.

But now, he realized that their family background was nothing at all, and in the eyes of those nobles, they were like ants who could be pinched to death by raising their hands.

If he wants to change this situation, he can only strive to become a human being.

And the imperial examination is the only way for him.

With such determination, he was extremely calm before the exam, and when he actually went to the exam room, his state was also very stable, and he was not affected by the previous incident in the slightest.

After the exam, some candidates were full of sadness, and some candidates were happy, Tang Qing still looked so calm, Tang Cheng wanted to ask but didn't dare to speak.

Everyone thought that Tang Qing was probably because of the previous events that affected his performance, and he definitely didn't do well in the exam this time, but he didn't expect that when it came time to release the list, the first place was Tang Qing!

This news was transmitted back to the Tang family, and the whole Tang family was immediately excited.

But the Tang family did not put on a feast, or made a righteous act such as soup kitchen, because the Tang family was in a huge haze at this time.

Several merchant ships of the Tang family encountered water bandits, were hijacked, and suffered heavy losses.

Because of this change, the Tang family delayed the original delivery time with other merchants, and the Tang family's reputation was greatly traumatized by this default, and many orders were canceled one after another.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the Tang family's cloth business and tea business also suffered huge losses due to heavy rain.

Originally, the Tang family's business was greatly affected, but now this is simply worse, and the Tang family's capital chain has also been affected, so they announced that they would reduce the industry and close the store to return the funds, and the Tang family's store has also decreased sharply.

In the blink of an eye, there were not many famous stores left in the Tang family, and they were counted, but the Wanjia restaurant was still doing well.

But no matter how good the business of Wanjia Restaurant is, it is only a restaurant, for ordinary people, to have such a restaurant, they can naturally make a lot of money, rich in food and clothing.

But for the Tang family, Wanjia Restaurant has changed from one of their many restaurants to one of the few shops that must rely on it for a living, and the gap is so big that I am afraid that it is not something that ordinary people can bear.

This change in the Tang family happened so quickly that it made the jaws drop of the hearts of the businessmen.

The Tang family seems to have been injured one after another in a short period of time, subjected to various suppressions, and directly turned into an empty shell.

In this case, the good news that the Tang Qing Academy won the top spot, the Tang family was naturally not in the mood to make a big deal.

When outsiders saw this, they didn't have the slightest suspicion, but felt that everything was reasonable.

When the Tang family went out, they also showed a particularly depressed attitude, even if Tang Qingke was successful, he couldn't really dispel the haze.
