Longzhou Mansion, at this time, the streets and alleys are full of people, and all kinds of voices are mixed in it, which is a prosperous scene.

Although Longzhou Mansion is only the southernmost prefecture of Guanghe County, which is under the jurisdiction of the Tang Kingdom, it is also remote and has the weakest aura. However, one side of the land supports one side of the people, and although the resource conditions here are poor, there is also a radius of nearly 10,000 miles. Thousands of miles of land, countless small towns and villages are scattered all over it. The population is also nearly 10 million.

Therefore, the huge population base also supports the prosperity of Longzhou Prefecture. Heaven is natural, everything has its two sides, although the aura of Longzhou Mansion is weak, but it contains rich mineral deposits. These mineral deposits are mainly in the hands of the four major families of Longzhou Mansion and the City Lord's Mansion, and the most significant of them is that nearly 40% of the metal deposits in Longzhou Mansion are owned by the Li family of the four major families.

To say that among the four major families and the City Lord's Mansion, the Li family is not the most powerful, but why is it able to occupy so many mineral resources without being rejected by other forces.

Yes, the reason why the Li family was able to quickly grow into one of the four major families in Longzhou Mansion in a few hundred years was to rely on refining tools, through which the Li family accumulated huge wealth and acquired a large number of mines.

In such a remote place as Longzhou Mansion, there are very few refiners, which can be said to be rare. Moreover, the highest-level refiner is just a third-grade refiner, but it just so happens that this person is a member of the Li family.

A good weapon can increase the strength of a martial artist a lot, and the more advanced the refiner, the higher the level of the weapon produced. And as a martial artist, everyone wants to have a good weapon, and naturally the status of the refiner will rise, which is why the Li family has so many mineral deposits, but it can still be one of the four major families, because other forces always ask them to help refine weapons, so everyone will not offend him. Over time, everyone can only watch the Li family grow bigger.

It is precisely because of this reliance that the people of the Li family have also begun to slowly show their ambitions, monopolizing the refining industry of the entire Longzhou Mansion through various means. Longzhou Mansion is also a city with a population of nearly three or four million, and the number of warriors among them is nearly hundreds of thousands.

To the east of the capital city of Longzhou, a huge mansion stands in it, with high walls and tiles, countless courtyards are endless, connected to each other, there are several thick chimneys in the depths of S, and thick black smoke is rising from the top, it is obvious that it is the place where the Li family refines, but only the faint sound of striking iron can be heard. It can be seen that the scale of the Li family's area is no less than that of the Lu family's mansion. The wide gate is ten meters high and twenty meters wide, and directly above it hangs a huge plaque made of precious sandalwood, on which there are only two large golden characters "Li Fu".

This giant mansion is the Li family, one of the four major families in Longzhou Mansion.

"Smack。。。。。 ”

A crisp sound came from a courtyard in the southeast of the mansion.

"Bastard。。。。。。 A bunch of waste... I can't even do such a thing, and I lost my sword."

A young man dressed in a golden brocade robe, seven feet tall, with blue and brown sideburns, and handsome facial features, was roaring angrily at this time.

The guards at the door knelt tremblingly at the door, not daring to take a breath, their eyes full of fear.

"The young master is angry... If the sword is lost, let's just ask the elder for a hand, don't be angry... At this time, an old man to the left of the young man hurriedly spoke out and comforted.

"Hmph! Something like this happened, how can you let me calm my anger, this is what I have begged the third elder for a long time, and I paid a lot of price before he agreed to help me refine it, and now it's gone, do you think I can not be in a hurry" The young man turned to stare at the old man and shouted.

"It's... Be... If something like this happens, the young master should be angry. But right now, the main thing for the young master is not to be angry because of this incident, but to think about how to solve the consequences of this incident. The old man didn't pay attention to the young man's anger, but said in a heavy tone.

Hearing the old man's words, the young man's heart tightened, and he came back to his senses in an instant, only to realize that he was too impulsive, and suddenly he was in a mess, and hurriedly apologized to the old man: "I'm sorry, Uncle Wu, I was too impulsive just now." ”

"However, I can't help but be angry about this matter, it's all Li Wu and their waste, not only did they not do it well, but now they are all dead. And there are no dead bodies, so these pieces of rags are left behind. The young man pointed to a pile of tattered clothes on the ground and said unwillingly.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a situation, you must know that that place may be the key to whether our Li family can rise again, now that they are dead, all the clues are closed, this is the most critical. The old man frowned and sighed.

"Hmph, if I wasn't afraid of attracting the attention of other forces, I wouldn't have sent a few of them to waste, and I also boasted in front of my grandfather that Haikou was going to give him a big gift for his sixtieth birthday, but now it's okay, there is nothing, and when the time comes, I will definitely not be able to get off the stage in front of my grandfather in the whole family," the young man was angry when he thought of this.

"However, the young master doesn't have to worry too much now, since a few of them are dead, then we will continue to send people to find them. And it's been a few days now, and I haven't seen any rumors, I guess the other forces shouldn't know about this matter yet, so this result is not the worst for us, and we can continue to send people to investigate before the other forces react. The old man thought for a moment, and then analyzed carefully.

Hearing the old man's analysis, the young man's eyes lit up, yes, we still have time.

This place must be found, and there is also a gift for the patriarch's birthday, so don't worry too much, the old man said with a look of confidence.

"Oh, Uncle Wu, do you already have a way in mind?" The young man knew Uncle Wu well, he was not the kind of person who had no purpose, and he knew that he should already have a good way, so he hurriedly asked.

The old man smiled and nodded.

"If that's the case, I know that Uncle Wu must have a way. Great, then tell me quickly, what are you going to do?", the young man excitedly pulled Uncle Wu to sit on the chair next to him, poured a cup of tea and handed it over, and asked anxiously.

The old man took a sip of tea slowly, and did not rush to tell the young man, but looked around lightly, and then nodded at the young man.

The young man is also a smart person, and he quickly understood what Uncle Wu meant, turned around and waved his hand and said to everyone outside the door, all of you go outside and guard, no one can be let in without my permission.

"Yes, young master" The kneeling guards quickly left the courtyard as if they had been amnestied, and then lined up outside the courtyard as if they were facing a great enemy.
