Chapter 147 147, New clues found
At dawn, after breakfast, Mu Yunjiang immediately examined his mother and made sure that there was nothing wrong with her body except for memory loss.
Then she showed her father again - within a month, Muhe's body had recovered very well.
She is quite satisfied with her parents' physical condition - her eldest sister and fourth sister took good care of them during her absence this month.
She walked around with them for a while.
The eldest sister, third brother, and fourth sister are all here, and the whole family gathers together to enjoy the warmth of family life.
Mu Yuntao couldn't wait any longer, so he winked at her quietly, meaning he wanted to have a chat with her alone and let her go out.
Mu Yunjiang came out with an excuse.
Mu Yuntao pulled her under the deserted flower tree, looked around, and whispered: "Last night I was only listening to you talk about the adventure in Jade City, and I forgot to tell you that we were inspecting the Northern Arms Department.
A new clue has emerged, and the situation has become a bit complicated. Do you want to listen to what's going on here and give me some advice?"
Logically speaking, this is a national matter and should not be discussed with a young woman. After all, women do not participate in politics.
However, he felt that Xiao Qi was not an ordinary woman, and His Highness the Third Highness had not come back yet, so he felt that he should listen to her opinion - it was not just a coincidence that she was able to perform meritorious deeds during the Jade City Rebellion. Xiao Qi's mind was extremely powerful.
"What new clue?"
Mu Yunjiang's heart moved when he heard this.
"This matter cannot be explained in a few words. Otherwise, you, go to the east courtyard immediately. I will go find Yan Wuhen. Wait a minute, we will meet at the third cousin's side to discuss this matter in detail...
"
Mu Yunjiang nodded immediately: "Okay."
When she came back this time, she just wanted to investigate the Northern Arms Department.
"Then I'll ask Guan Guan to help you hitch the carriage. You go first, and I'll be there soon."
"Can."
Mu Yuntao ran out quickly.
Mu Yunjiang looked at it and suddenly realized that after not seeing him for a month, the third brother seemed to be much more stable than before. Letting him follow Yan Wuhen seemed to be the right choice.
She was deeply pleased with this.
Su Yue stayed nearby and waited for Mr. Sanlang to leave before coming over to greet him.
"Suyue, follow me to the east courtyard and ask Chongba to help us drive the car."
"yes."
Suyue went to summon Chongba.
The three of them caught up with the carriage and went to General Mu's Mansion.
After Mu Yunjiang knocked on the door, the concierge immediately shouted in surprise: "Hey, Miss Qi, you are here. I will go and report to Aunt Mingqi... Aunt Qi will be so happy when she sees you."
"No need. I'll find the eldest and third cousins. Just go in by yourself, don't follow."
The same guard is so powerful that he can't see it.
Before, he was disliked in every possible way, but now he is flattered in every possible way.
Mu Yunjiang didn't care much and walked in on his own.
Chongba and Suyue followed behind him.
Mu Yunjiang went directly to his eldest cousin's yard, only to find that his third cousin was also there. The two of them were sitting together in the study, studying the family's account books. They were discussing and discussing. The eldest cousin was reporting the numbers, while the third cousin was adjusting the abacus.
, quite similar to that.
She looked at it and smiled, and called in as she walked: "First cousin, third cousin, we have been apart for more than a month, how are you? Are you two calculating the income and expenditure of the family?"
"Ah, Xiaoqi...you're back?"
"Hey, Xiaoqi...you are finally back."
When the two brothers saw it was Xiao Qi, they both smiled and said hello.
Cousin Mu Yuncheng said: "Isn't this a bad idea you gave our father? But it has relieved us a lot of loneliness. In the past month or so, we have sorted out all the family's ledgers. You still have
Not to mention, third brother is indeed very good at settling accounts..."
He did not hesitate to praise this younger brother.
Third cousin Mu Yunjie looked embarrassed, rubbed his head and shouted: "Where is it? I'm blind, so I can't help you much. I just have a good memory. If the elder brother reads it out, I will sort it out."
If you use an abacus, I can still make up the balance."
The two brothers are respectful and harmonious.
Mu Yunjiang was very happy: how could his uncle become so obedient now that he actually let them manage the accounts together?
"Okay, now, please two brothers, please put aside the account books and abacus for a while, and let me show you how you are doing this month."
Mu Yunjiang first showed his cousin the injury on his leg, and then told him: "You must do some rehabilitation exercises every day. The medicine I prescribed is still very effective. With exercise and medication, my cousin will still be able to do it in the future.
He walks as fast as he flies."
Mu Yuncheng was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Then I will wait for a miracle to happen."
Then she smiled and said to Mu Yunjie: "Third cousin, when I was in Beiling, I found a prescription that can cure your eye disease. I have already made a bottle of ointment based on the prescription. Here, just
If you apply this bottle every day, your third cousin will be able to see in less than half a year..."
"Ah, this is really great news, thank you Xiaoqi, I really appreciate it..."
The third cousin was overjoyed and hurriedly fumbled to take it.
Mu Yunjiang immediately called for his servants to apply medicine to his third cousin, and then covered his eyes with a white cloth.
After finishing the serious business, her two brothers began to ask her about what happened in Yucheng. They said that although their father had sent a letter and told her about Xiaoqi's great achievements there, now they still wanted to hear her story with their own ears.
One word.
Mu Yunjiang could only talk briefly, and also had lunch in the east courtyard.
After the meal, Mu Yunjiang pushed his third cousin back to his yard and into his study - there were already two more people in his study.
One is Yan Wuhen.
One is Mu Yuntao.
Ling Suyue and Chongba stood guard outside the door. After Mu Yunjiang helped Mu Yuntao sit down, he also sat down before saying to them:
"Tell me, what new clues have you found regarding the inferior weapons case..."
She wanted to know so desperately.
"Xiao Qi, we checked and found that there is a big problem with the productivity of those iron stones." Mu Yunjie fumbled and asked Mu Yuntao to hand an account book to her while explaining in detail:
"In general, iron ore can be divided into poor ore and rich ore according to quality. The iron extraction rate of poor ore plants is 20% to 40%, and the iron extraction rate of rich ore is 40% to 60%. Our Beishan Ordnance Camp, with
It’s high-quality rich ore. I asked them to take some ore and conduct several experiments, and the iron tapping rate was as high as 60%... But in the ledger, it was always less than 50%, and in several batches, it was even only 40%.
%......
"Although these data are within the reasonable range of the iron tapping rate, they are too different from the data we actually tested. Therefore, I think someone has fabricated this data and misappropriated at least 10% to 15% of the data.
Iron stone..."
As soon as these words came out, Mu Yunjiang's expression suddenly condensed: "So, those iron stones were misappropriated, right!"
"yes."
"When did they start using this iron yield rate?"
"At least more than ten years!"
Such a year made Mu Yunjiang's heart tighten several times.
As the saying goes, a little can make a lot. How much iron and stone must be accumulated in more than ten years?
If these iron stones are used to make weapons, how many weapons will be made. And these weapons will ultimately harm the country's guards who guard the tranquility of Great Liang.
This is how the internal conflict came about - the hidden dangers were laid ten years ago. The sharp edge that harmed the country had been sharpened in the dark.
"Who reports the iron yield rate?"
She thought about this very critical issue.
"Ten years ago, there were three metrological officers. The first one died of illness, retired the next day, and the third one committed suicide in prison. Just yesterday, the retired one accidentally fell into the lake and drowned. Then
The National People's Congress went out to eat flowers and wine at night, got drunk on the boat and fell into the middle of the lake... When he was retrieved, he was already out of breath..."
When Yan Wuhen answered this question, his face was extremely solemn: "They have one thing in common, that is, each one was recommended by the next one. And they all have a direct or indirect relationship with the same person..."
"who."
she asked lowly.
Yan Wuhen spit out a name.
She trembled as she listened, and suddenly thought of a possibility. Could it be that the civil strife in her previous life was inevitable in the end?
To be continued...
