【1568】Silver Mine (7)

Zhang Wei made an innocent expression: "Oh, the official is not here either. Otherwise, if the official calls them in, will you scold them again, Mr. Ma?"

"That's all, that's all." Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand and said, "Okay, I won't say any more, just let them dig a hole properly. Tian Lai"

Zhang Wei nodded: "Okay!"

...

The next day, Ma Xiaoquan did not go to the mine to inspect again. Zhang Wei thought that Ma Xiaoquan was afraid of the miners, so he did not send anyone to call him.

On the third day, Zhang Wei came to Ma Xiaoquan with a smile and told him that the mine had been dug to the depth they agreed on.

Ma Xiaoquan understood what Zhang Wei meant. He looked at Zhang Wei's proud expression and reluctantly handed the "underground detector" to Zhang Wei.

After Zhang Wei got the "Underground Detector", he couldn't hide his excitement. He snorted several times and asked Ma Xiaoquan: "Master Ma, how do you use this... this treasure?"

Ma Xiaoquan rolled his eyes at Zhang Wei, pretending to be irritated and said: "You can study it yourself."

Zhang Wei thought Ma Xiaoquan was depressed, so he quickly left with the "underground detector" in his hands. Before leaving, he did not forget to say a respectful farewell to Ma Xiaoquan, which made Ma Xiaoquan very unhappy.

...

At night, Zhang Wei held the "Underground Detector" and kept marveling at it. From the time he got it to now, he had been struggling for a long time, but he still didn't know how to open this thing. Although this thing will be handed over to Mr. Wei in the end,

Who has no selfish motives? Besides, after Ma Xiaoquan plays with this thing, he can detect the location of the silver veins.

If you don’t play with such a magical thing, how can it be worthy of yourself?

The more Zhang Wei thought about it, the more he felt that it would be a shame to hand it over to Lord Wei like this, so he simply wrote a letter and sent someone to the capital overnight to report to Lord Wei that the item was in hand, but there were still some small things that might delay it.

It will take a while to send the items and so on.

After finishing all this work, Zhang Wei felt at ease and picked up the "underground detector" and started playing with it.

...

At noon on the fourth day, the mine pit requested by Ma Xiaoquan was finally dug. With the completion of the excavation of the mine pit, the silver vein that Ma Xiaoquan mentioned before was also exposed.

The miners below the mine cheered and cheered, and the foreman and six foremen above the mine also praised Ma Xiaoquan's magic.

Ma Xiaoquan stood in the middle of the crowd, enjoying everyone's admiration for him. He kept bowing his hands to everyone and being polite.

Zhang Wei stood on tiptoes and looked into the pit with his red eyes. He swallowed hard with a look of surprise on his face.

After studying the "underground detector" all night last night, there was no result. I thought that thing was a fake that Ma Xiaoquan took out. Now that the silver vein is under his feet, Zhang Wei suddenly felt that he was too stupid.

Thoroughly study the secrets of the "underground detector".

Shaking his head helplessly, Zhang Wei stepped forward with a smile and congratulated Ma Xiaoquan. Ma Xiaoquan also congratulated him politely. The two of them had their own thoughts and understood each other tacitly.

...

Since the silver veins were discovered, Ma Xiaoquan stopped staying in the mining area. In the evening of that day, he said goodbye to Zhang Wei.

Although Zhang Wei felt that Ma Xiaoquan's departure at night was a bit abrupt, he still prepared a sumptuous meal for Ma Xiaoquan to see him off.

After Ma Xiaoquan left, Zhang Wei immediately took the "underground detector" to study it again.

...

Returning to Beijing from the mining area, Ma Xiaoquan didn't plan to spend too much time riding horses all day long. If Ma Xiaoquan was the only one, it would be okay, but with Chun Qiao, it would not be that easy.

Therefore, after riding overnight for two days, Ma Xiaoquan decided to rent a carriage and take him and Chunqiao back to Beijing.

Although it is slower than riding a horse in terms of time, it is much more comfortable than before, at least not so tiring.

On this day, Ma Xiaoquan and Chunqiao were chatting in the carriage. The two talked about the "underground detector" before. Ma Xiaoquan asked Chunqiao: "What is the trap you gave me?"

Chunqiao smiled slightly and said: "Captain, I know what you are thinking. Zhang Wei, you don't want him to live, right?"

Ma Xiaoquan was stunned at first, then nodded.

"So the trap I gave you is actually a deadly hidden weapon."

"A deadly hidden weapon?" Ma Xiaoquan was shocked, "How to use it?"

Chunqiao smiled slightly and didn't say anything, but from her expression, Ma Xiaoquan could tell that Zhang Wei would definitely die soon.

Ma Xiaoquan said with a smile: "I brought you out originally because of your observation ability, but now it seems that you also helped me solve a major problem in my heart. Not bad, very good, haha..."

Chunqiao also smiled slightly, her eyes suddenly a little lonely. Ma Xiaoquan saw the change in her expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chunqiao sighed and said: "Actually, when I came here, I didn't abandon my family..."

"Huh? What is that?"

Chunqiao bit her lip, pondered for a moment, and said: "Actually, my people exiled me..."

"How do you say this?"

"Because I killed my husband."

Ma Xiaoquan was not too surprised and just asked: "Why?"

"He asked me to serve his brother. When I refused, he beat me...I couldn't bear it anymore, so I poisoned him to death. When my tribe found out, they banished me..." Speaking of this

It's a bitter past, and Chun Qiao can't hide her pain.

Ma Xiaoquan sighed and said: "It's okay, this is all in the past. Well, it's just Chunqiao. Do you still want to get married?"

Chunqiao shook her head: "No, it's not necessary. I think this is good. Captain, I am by your side and doing things for you, and I am satisfied."

"Okay!" Ma Xiaoquan nodded.

Chunqiao wiped the tears on her face and suddenly laughed: "I am living a very fulfilling life now, but... Captain, sister Qinghan is not here, don't you really want to miss her?"

Ma Xiaoquan sighed: "Why don't I want to? It's just that I don't know where Qinghan went. After she left, the Vulcan Sect in Beijing suddenly seemed to have disappeared."

"Is it because Sister Qinghan has been reluctant to show up because of your son's incident?"

"It's also possible. After all, Feng'er did it because of my negligence. Hey, let's not talk about it anymore. It's all over."

Chunqiao nodded and said: "But it's okay. Miss Fangfang is pregnant with the captain's child. Captain, you can be a father again."

Ma Xiaoquan chuckled, shook his head and said: "Fangfang is a good girl, but his brother Fang Yun..." At this point, Ma Xiaoquan did not say any more.
