Chapter six hundred and twentieth civet cats for the prince for diamonds)
Ignoring the lively scene at the Royal Pier, Luo Zhang led Wu Shaobin and Shibaqi towards the nearest mine in Chang'an City.
Since taking back these mines, Luo Zhang has not visited them once. Although the news he received from Zhao Tianhu is that everything is normal, Luo Zhang is always worried if he doesn't take a look. After all, this is the lifeblood of the Changsun family. He
I don’t believe Changsun Wuji would be so honest as to hand over these mines.
It's not that he doesn't believe Zhao Tianhu, but Zhao Tianhu is too busy after all. He can't come to check from one mine to another. It just so happens that he has nothing to do today, so he came to see if there are any hidden dangers.
These are financial resources that can be passed on to the next generation. Just like those fiefdoms, even if the family declines, with these mines, his descendants will not die of hunger.
The first mine was not far from the dock, only more than thirty miles away. It only took Luo Zhang half an hour to get there.
When he came to the mine, Luo Zhang couldn't help but frown. Compared with the modern mines of later generations, the ancient mines were simply too backward. They all relied on people to use axes to cut and then carry the ore out with baskets.
In front of Luo Zhang were skinny miners walking out of the ground like ants carrying baskets of ore, walking towards a warehouse on the side, where they unloaded the ore and then returned.
And Luo Zhang frowned not because of the backwardness of ancient mining, but because along the way of the miners there were fierce men with whips, constantly urging the miners to work. If they were slow, they would get a whip from them.
, the miners who were beaten fell to the ground and wailed.
"These people shouldn't be ours, right?" Luo Zhang turned to look at Wu Shaobin and said. After all, Wu Shaobin, the receptionist here, also sent people to cooperate with Zhao Tianhu. Zhao Tianhu's gang alone cannot control the mine.
Wu Shaobin also frowned. He didn't know these people either. He didn't expect to see such a scene in the mine. He was also a little unhappy. After all, there were people sent here to take over, but he didn't see him in front of him.
This made Wu Shaobin very confused.
"Wait for me here first, and I'll go see what's going on!" After saying this, Wu Shaobin drove his horse towards the mine.
At the mine, someone had noticed the movements of Luo Zhang and his group. When they saw someone coming, the people in the mine rushed to greet them and said with a fierce look on their faces: "Who is this person? This is the mine of the Changsun family, hurry up.
Leave immediately, otherwise I will be rude to you!"
"Who are you? Why are you here? This is obviously the mine of the Luo family. When did it become the mine of the Changsun family?" Wu Shaobin said with an ugly face.
"Luo family? Which Luo family, I don't know. This place has always been the Changsun family's mine. If you don't leave, be careful that my whip is not a vegetarian!" the visitor said fiercely.
"Well? Your whip? You can give it a try!" Wu Shaobin sneered.
"Hey, there's a bit of a quarrel here. It seems like you're itchy. I wonder if I won't take care of you today!" As he said this, the man raised his whip and whipped Wu Shaobin.
Wu Shaobin looked at the whip of the person coming, without moving his body. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the whip. With a slight exertion of his hand, the person on the other end of the whip was pulled off his horse by Wu Shaobin.
This was just the beginning. After the future man pulled the horse off, Wu Shaobin moved his arms and lifted the future man up. He turned over and dismounted, and kicked the future man away. He lay on the ground wailing.
Seeing that something happened here, those who maintained order rushed over here one after another, each of them was vicious. In their opinion, someone dared to run wild here. It was really embarrassing for an ambitious leopard. They didn't know that this was Changsun.
Home mine?
"Help your captain clean up those miscellaneous fish, I don't have time to waste here with them!" Luo Zhang frowned.
"Yes, Master!" The Eighteen Cavalrymen bowed to accept the order, mounted their horses and rushed out.
After just a cup of tea, the man from the mine who had previously wanted to teach Wu Shaobin a lesson viciously lay down in a staggered state.
At this time, a big man with big arms and round waist walked out of a house not far away. When he saw the scene in front of him, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot. In all his years in this mine, this was the first time that someone dared to come here to provoke him. He really didn’t know the heights of the world.
.
If other people from Changsun's family knew about this, they would definitely think that he was doing something bad. How could this be possible?
"Who are you? Why did you come to my mine to cause trouble? If you don't give me an explanation, the Changsun family will not let you go!" The big man shouted at Luo Zhang and others.
"Humph! The Changsun family's mine? This is already my mine. Who told you it was the Changsun family's mine?" Luo Zhang got off his horse and strode towards the man.
Hearing Luo Zhang's words, the big man's face changed slightly. He had already received the news that the mines here had been placed under Luo Zhang's name. The people sent by Wu Shaobin before had indeed handed over to him, and he had indeed left.
, but one day later, he came back with his people and took this place over, but all this happened without anyone noticing, and the people in Luo Mansion didn't know about it at all.
In addition, Zhao Tianhu was too busy and thought that this place had been taken back. He sent people to collect the ore every day and sent it to the pig iron shops that were jointly opened in Chang'an City. He did not take care of the others. Who would have thought that this place would have been replaced a long time ago.
If Luo Zhang hadn't come here today, I don't know when this matter would have been discovered.
The key is, if Changsun Wuji wants to cause trouble and sends some low-quality ore to those newly opened pig iron shops, then the pig iron shops opened by the Xiao family, Dugu family, and Yuwen family will encounter the Changsun family's ironmaking shop.
things that happened to me.
"What a trick to draw something new from the bottom of the cauldron, and what a trick to trick Chen Cang in secret. Changsun Wuji deserves to be Changsun Wuji, and he actually plays this trick with labor and management. Do you really think labor and management are easy to bully?" Luo Zhang gave the big man a fierce look and said, "Don't use him."
After saying hello, the eighteen horsemen swarmed up and tied up the big man.
"What are you doing? I am a member of the Changsun family. If you dare to touch me, aren't you afraid of retaliation?" The big man struggled and said.
"Revenge? Will Changsun Wuji take revenge on me for your little Luo Luo? You think too highly of yourself." Luo Zhang said disdainfully.
"Who are you? I have never offended you, why do you do this?" the big man said without giving up.
"Me? I am the owner of this mine, Luo Zhang! Who do you think I am?" Luo Zhang snorted coldly.
"Ah..." The big man was startled by Luo Zhang's words. He didn't expect that the real owner would come to the mine. This was really beyond his expectation.
The real master is here, and his fate is foreseeable. Luo Zhang did not kill him, but asked the Eighteen Cavalry to abolish his martial arts, throw him directly into the mine, and let him mine. As for the accomplices, they also
And threw him into the mine. This is what this kind of person should end up with.
"Let me check this place carefully. Not only here, but also in other mines. I'm afraid the situation there is the same as here. There can't be any mistakes. But everyone who has been replaced by Changsun Wuji will be taken care of by me. It's really
That's too much!" Luo Zhang turned to Wu Shaobin and ordered.
"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter right now, and I will never make a mistake!" Wu Shaobin's face was also dull. After all, he was also one of the receivers. Such a thing happened, and the person he sent was not found here.
, one can imagine the fate of those people, they may have been buried in the slag long ago.
Luo Zhang looked around again and told Wu Shaobin some things that should be paid attention to. The key point is that the new people sent to the mine must not squeeze the miners anymore, the treatment of these people must be improved, and the mine pits must be reinforced, etc. A series of things
.
Wu Shaobin remembered everything Luo Zhang said.
Luo Zhang never thought of blaming Zhao Tianhu. In fact, he had too many things to take care of and had no time to care about.
This makes Luo Zhang suffer from the fact that no one is available. There was Du Jin who could help him share some of the burden, but who knew that Du Jin was actually a rebellious boy. He actually took refuge with others while he was imprisoned. How could such a person be used? Of course
He kicked me away.
Nowadays, there is really no one who can make him believe that he has outstanding abilities. This matter can only be taken one step at a time.
Luo Zhang's inspection was not over. After handing over the matters here to Wu Shaobin, Luo Zhang took the Eighteen Cavalry towards the special mine entrusted to him by the Changsun family. The mine was newly opened.
It is said that the ore is not known to the elders of the company commander Sun family. Luo Zhang is very interested in this. He doesn't know what kind of mine it is. If it is one of the types he knows, then he will make a lot of money!
