Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

——People have been sent to investigate. There is indeed white phosphorus in the place Wang Can mentioned, a large amount of white phosphorus! 』

Zhu Ling's words were said lightly.

But in fact... the process in between is extremely complicated.

Half a day ago, Cao Pi received guidance from Wang Can and roughly knew the hiding place of the batch of white phosphorus shipped to Jiaozhou.

Back in the cave, Cao Pi immediately told Zhu Ling this important information.

Zhu Ling did not dare to neglect, even though he was facing searches everywhere, he still sent his son Zhu Shu and a group of personal guards to investigate the corresponding location.

We must find out...the authenticity of the hiding place of this white phosphorus!

only…

Wang Can's guidance is one thing, but actually finding out where the white phosphorus is is another.

Outside the entire Anlu City, there are either continuous mountains or endless flat land. The so-called hiding place is a hill... How big is the hill? Where exactly...who knows!

It happened to be a light snowfall here... Zhu Shu and his bodyguards faced the snow, breathing white air, while avoiding the enemy pursuit, while looking for traces of white phosphorus in the hills.

The cold wind blew on my face like a knife, and I found nothing from day to night...

However, they knew that white phosphorus was hidden in these hills, but they did not dare to light torches or make bonfires to keep warm. They could only rest for a while in the cold wind.

It’s difficult——

Each of Zhu Ling's personal guards felt like a dog in trouble. They had already fled to the cave on the border between Jiangxia and Nanyang, and they only needed to take one step... to escape.

But...but...just because Cao Pi, who has become stubborn for some reason, insists on making meritorious deeds and standing in the lap of your second uncle!

So risky, so hard, with your head in your belt.

These personal guards secretly scolded Cao Pi countless times!

It’s just a shame…

On the other hand, Zhu Shu also followed the crowd and made a fucked up expression...

In fact, all this was a plan, and he also knew where the white phosphorus was hidden.

In fact, this batch of white phosphorus was meant to be transported to Luoyang.

As for what happens next?

Zhu Shu doesn't know... Zhu Ling doesn't know either, but there is no doubt that... the final consequences of this action... must be an extremely exciting event that will reverberate throughout the Kyushu.

Based on this, even if Zhu Shu knew the specific location, he couldn't make it too clear or too easy to find, which would be too false.

We'll continue looking as soon as it gets light.

Following Zhu Shu's words, all the guards nodded...

Alas... Zhu Shu showed a hint of dejection and stared at everyone, I know you all have complaints, and I also know that it is very dangerous here, but... whether I can return to Luoyang and whether I can take this meritorious service, it all depends on me. It depends on the mission of our trip... Survival or destruction, only one or two days! Everyone... cheer up and hold on... At least, we still have hope!

Zhu Shu's words seemed to make the atmosphere even more depressing.

It's freezing cold and there are no people around. Who knows, will we encounter enemies? But I feel so wronged, and I can only swallow it in my heart at this time.

well…

These personal guards could only wrap themselves up in simple quilts and sleep with reluctance and indignation. They had to replenish their strength. Their journey would have to continue until dawn.

actually…

There were soldiers around who had noticed them. They were soldiers of the Lu Family Army.

Those traitors are actually hiding here. Do you want to tell the young master?

How about...we catch them first. This will be a great achievement!

It was two young infantrymen who spoke...

The young master they mentioned refers to Lu Xun's son Lu Yan.

After Zhu Ling's rebellion, it was Lu Yan who was responsible for arresting the rebel group Zhu Ling.

However, just as the two young soldiers spoke, an older soldier, who seemed to be the leader of this unit, quickly extended his fist and hammered the two soldiers on the head.

Catch, catch, catch. I know how to catch. Young Master has repeatedly given orders... He said not to act rashly. Don't you understand what it means not to act rashly?

But...but they don't have many people. We have enough soldiers...

Before the young soldier could finish speaking again, That's enough for you, uncle! The veteran punched him on the forehead again, Did you have any misunderstanding of the captain's order, 'Don't act rashly'? Be honest. Stay here, eat when you are hungry, sleep after eating, and blocking your mouth is better than anything else!

Uh... now, the two young soldiers only looked confused and at a loss.

This...what the hell!

Apparently the enemy was discovered? But can't catch it? What does this... mean?

In this way, I stayed up until midnight...

In the hills, a soldier of Zhu Ling wanted to relieve himself, and another soldier was thirsty. The two of them walked together to the lake under the hills. This lake... was the product of the Yangtze River that rushed into the mountain stream when it flooded in the past. Because of the terrain, produce.

Of course, the soldiers didn't care so much. Those in the upper reaches took water to quench their thirst, and those in the lower reaches peeed when they needed it... The two of them were in peace with each other...

The one who was shushing was still whistling freely, but the one who was getting water suddenly exclaimed. Eh? Isn't this wrong?

What's wrong?

The shushing soldier shook his waist, and a few more drops dripped down...

He asked calmly with his pants in his pocket.

The soldier who exclaimed held his chin, thinking about it, and said: This is wrong... I am collecting water upstream, and you are peeing downstream. Logically speaking... there shouldn't be stains in my water, there shouldn't be. The color has changed, why...why does it look so white...

this…

As soon as the soldier finished speaking, another soldier seemed to have thought of something. He quickly rolled up his sleeves, stretched out his arms, and grabbed a handful of mud from the bottom of the lake!

Suddenly, a white, water-resistant hard lump the size of a grain of rice appeared in his eyes.

This is…

The soldier was shocked. He no longer cared about the biting lake water, nor did he care that his peeing had contaminated the purity of the lake, because... he could confirm that this thing was phosphorus!

——It’s white phosphorus!

The lump-like, hard object made of powder smelled too much like flint.

For a moment, the soldier was scouring the lake like crazy. After a while, he found another piece... It was bigger and had an irregular shape. His pupils opened... and then, he didn't care about the shush here just now. Shh passed and his head was completely submerged in it.

When he came out again, he groaned excitedly but restrainedly.

I found it, I found it...there is white phosphorus in it, there is white phosphorus...

You must know that white phosphorus has a very low ignition point and will spontaneously ignite when exposed to the air. If a large amount of white phosphorus spontaneously ignites, it will be tantamount to a poison gas bomb for a city...

Therefore, it must be isolated from air and stored in substances with relatively high boiling points.

White phosphorus is denser than water and will sink underwater, so it is most appropriate to store it in water... and store it in lakes!

Of course, Guan Lin will also use glass bottles for preservation, but that consumes too much glass bottles, so only in wartime will white phosphorus be filled into glass bottles for airdrops...

It is precisely based on this that some lakes around Anlu City are arranged to store white phosphorus, and there is not much protection around them. This is because without protection, it is not easy to leak!

This is understandable…

Because there are many lakes in Jiangxia, if there are no clues, trying to find white phosphorus in the hundreds of lakes crisscrossing the country is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Master, Master, I found it...I found it...I found it...

When the personal guard reported the news to Zhu Shu as if taking credit for it, he finally let out a long sigh.

——I finally found it...I'm so anxious! 』

And when Zhu Shu sent out his fast horse...he had to inform his father Zhu Ling and Cao Pi immediately.

The Lu Jiajun veteran who was waiting outside also let out a long sigh and said with emotion: Finally found it...

In fact, what he wanted to express most was:

——You are so worried about me! If I don't find it, how will I explain it to Patriarch Lu Xun and Master Yun Qi... Hey, I'm not afraid of powerful opponents, I'm afraid of opponents with brains like pigs! 』

He was so emotional and murmuring in such a low voice...

The soldiers on the side were extremely curious and asked him: Brother? The enemy has already sent his horse back. I am afraid that he has found something. If he doesn't take action, he will... just...

It's just you, you big-headed devil! The veteran punched the recruit on the forehead again, and then he immediately ordered, Close the team, close the team...

But when I suddenly thought about it, I felt that this was too fake. Mr. Yunqi emphasized repeatedly...

Be real! reality!

It’s still so real!

etc…

He quickly retracted what he had just said, then chirp his mouth, continue to guard, wait until... the enemy really sends people to move, we will fight out...

This veteran's idea is that superficiality... is still necessary.

But what they heard in the ears of a group of soldiers was a sudden realization: Captain... you still have the foresight. Take the long term and catch big fish. It's high... it's really high!

that's all…

Zhu Ling told Cao Pi all about Zhu Shu's situation, and Zhang Fang also listened. Perhaps because of weakness or because he thought of something, he did not respond.

Cao Pi couldn't hide his excitement... Is this serious?

My son went to check it out personally, and it's absolutely true, but... Zhu Ling paused before continuing, However, this is Jingzhou's territory after all, and it's just our words...

Zhu Ling expressed his worries.

Cao Pi was categorical, If it is white phosphorus, the Taishan Army in Nanyang will not stand still. They will send people to contact them and cooperate internally and externally... This batch of white phosphorus must be transported to Luoyang City!

As he spoke, Cao Pi's eyes flickered... He seemed to have seen that he and the crown prince were so close again!

…

…

Among the official offices of Anlu City.

Guan Lin and Lu Xun were playing chess.

Although some news would come from time to time and reach the ears of Guan Lin and Lu Xun through the mouths of soldiers, the two of them always remained calm and calm.

Their pieces leaped across the board like soldiers and horses on a battlefield, each move carefully considered.

Just when Guan Lin was about to throw a sunspot, a personal guard came to report, According to the master's instructions, General Zhu Ling has discovered the lake where the white phosphorus is hidden, and sent out fast horses, seemingly to contact the Taishan Army in Nanyang!

oh…

Guan Lin's throwing hand paused for a moment and raised his eyes slightly, as if he had stopped for a moment.

At this time, another soldier came to report: Sir, the Jiangdong clan headed by Gu Yong, the head of the Gu family, has contacted those Taoists and is discussing specific bargaining chips!

When this news came, Guan Lin's expression was as usual, but Lu Xun's expression changed slightly. He quickly asked in surprise: Gu Yong? How could Yunqi send Gu Yong to contact those Taoists Zuo Ci and Ge Xuan? The Jiangdong clan... Li Zi Take the lead, Yun Qi, be careful!

Faced with Lu Xun's doubts, Guan Lin took back the chess pieces and explained with a smile: Everyone in the world is interested in profit, and the rich are especially after profit, and profit comes first, so that's fine... Then I will give them profit... let them Don’t bear to give up, don’t throw away the benefits!”

Give? Lu Xun just chanted such a word, and he suddenly thought of something, and quickly asked: Yun Qi means those mineral veins?

Haha... Guan Lin did not answer, but smiled happily and handed a letter on the table beside him to Lu Xun.

He calmly said: This is a letter from my second brother Mi Zifang. Boyan might as well read this letter first and then know...why I can trust these Jiangdong rich people.

this…

With doubts, Lu Xun unfolded the letter.

It turns out that... taking these disobedient Jiangdong wealthy families for his own use was originally part of Guan Lin's Northern Expedition plan.

He first sent Guan Yinping and Lu Yanzheng to mobilize civilian workers to dig out the veins of two copper mines and a salt mine in Jiangdong... and then deliberately spread the news that these veins were dug out.

Naturally, these big Jiangdong families who were originally dividing farmers into acres, competing for farmers, and dividing farmland did not cooperate with Mi Fang at all times, they keenly sensed the huge benefits!

This is a copper mine and a salt mine!

What is stored here is copper and salt, not to mention that copper is the currency of this era. Digging out the copper veins is equivalent to the business of gleaning wheat to run a mill without any capital or profit.

The amount of salt that can be extracted from the salt mine alone is terrifying!

You must know that the level of salt production in this era was not high. The so-called seawater extraction and brine boiling salt methods were still in the exploratory stage, and most of the salt produced was coarse salt.

The real large-scale production of salt depends on the refining of this salt mine...

By crushing, processing, dissolving, filtering, evaporating, and drying the salt mine, edible salt that is more fine than coarse salt is finally produced.

You know, people can be meat-free, but not salt-free...

For soldiers fighting in war, this statement must be emphasized ten times more!

Fine edible salt is used as military supplies and is rarely seen on the market.

It is no exaggeration to say that regardless of the two copper veins, the wealth brought by the excavation of this salt vein alone... far exceeds the sum of the four surnames of Wu. This is extremely terrifying.

It is precisely based on this...

The heads of the major clans headed by Gu Yong rushed to Mi Fang's side immediately.

——Everyone is spread out over an acre... Cooperate!

——Farmers not only don’t rob, but they also try to give away!

——As for the farmland, what should be given...these wealthy families all gave it to Mi Fang extremely generously. What should not be given, as long as Mi Fang speaks, they will be given!

The main thing is to be a responsive person!

And the chiefs of these big clans have only one purpose. They have to take them to play with these two copper veins and one salt mine!

If you have money...let's make it together!

As for Mi Fang's reply to them, it had already been discussed with Guan Lin.

These two copper ore veins and one salt ore vein were mined by the Lu Jiajun and the Mi Jiajun together. They worked hard and it was impossible to share a share with them when they saw the profits and income.

Hear this…

The chiefs of the Jiangdong clan suddenly frowned, and they all stamped their feet in dejection.

Yes, this feeling of seeing others making money is even more uncomfortable than not making money yourself...

But Gu Yong, Zhang Wen, and Lu Dai were not willing to compromise. They winked, and the younger members of the clan immediately knelt down and hugged Mi Fang's thigh tightly. Their attitude was very clear... If they don't take them to play with them, they will If you don’t leave, I will hold you tightly forever.

Oh... Gu Yong said with emotion: General Mi is the second brother of Young Master Yun Qi, and Yun Qi is a person respected by the rich families like us. After all, we are one family. One family does not speak the same language as the other two families... These mineral veins and salt veins...General Mi must be merciful and share some with us! This way we, the rich clans, can work together to serve Young Master Yunqi and General Mi...

This...this...

Mi Fang deliberately squeaked her mouth, looking extremely embarrassed.

He was in trouble for a long time, then he spread his hands and said: No matter what you say about these three mineral veins, it has nothing to do with you, but...according to what my third brother said, there are still no less than 20 people left against the Wei Dynasty in the north. There are many mineral veins, and the nearest one is a gold mine in Huainan...

If we say... When it was mentioned that there were twenty mineral veins in the Northern Territory against the Wei Dynasty, the eyes of the chiefs of these Jiangdong clans were already shining.

Well, when it comes to a gold mine in Huainan, the eyes of the clan leaders of these Jiangdong clans are not just as simple as their eyes shining brightly. Their pupils are round and huge, as if... there is a golden mountain appearing in front of them.

Then, they clenched their fists, and what appeared on their faces was a line of big characters - We and Ni Wei are inseparable!

yes…

You Niwei owns twenty mineral veins, and you even have a gold mine. This...this...

It is no exaggeration to say that in this world, if big families like them can work together to dig out a gold mine, then... then they will do nothing. At that time, no family could compete with them in terms of financial resources, and even ...In the future, they will still have enough capital to compete with the big families in the Central Plains... This is a big event that affects the whole body!

Shine light, shine brightly, shine brightly——

However...Mi Fang's words continued, Actually...although there are many mineral veins in the Northern Territory against the Wei Dynasty, they are far inferior to those overseas. If we develop the navigation industry based on Jiangdong...the continents where we sail across the ocean, where The gold... is extremely rich! Oh, by the way... my second brother mentioned that there is a 'San Francisco' at the end of the sea. As the name suggests... the gold there is piled up like a mountain, and the color changes when exposed to the wind and sun... They are old, just waiting for the destined person to go there and take them away!

Uh...ocean sailing...

San Francisco? Mountains of gold?

At this time, all the leaders of the Jiangdong clan in front of Mi Fang were crazy. They seemed to have fallen into a new round of madness before they woke up from the last round of madness.

crazy…

This San Francisco is crazy!

That mountain of gold is crazy.

Hey... Mi Fang glanced at their faces with her peripheral vision and saw that they were intoxicated. Mi Fang then sighed: It's a pity that Jiangdong has been decided for the first time. My energy is focused on Jiangdong. My second brother He has so many things to do all day long... There are too many things that need to be taken care of by him, whether it's the northern attack on Wei or the ocean voyage... We are too weak to do it! To tell you the truth, I don't know... These mineral veins and gold mountains are fine, once we know Yes, they are clearly there, but I can see them but can’t touch them. This feeling... it’s so frustrating for me, oh, it’s so frustrating for me!”

this…

this…

Following Mi Fang's words, all the clan leaders of the Jiangdong clan looked at each other in confusion.

In fact, what Mi Fang said... was very mysterious.

It's gold mines, Jinshan, the Northern Expedition, and the great voyage... If someone else told Gu Yong and Zhang Wen, these wealthy people would definitely think that this person was crazy, and there was absolutely no way they would believe it. But now... this special Meow has been dug out in Jiangdong!

And it was Guan Lin, Guan Lin, Guan Lin who proposed... the location of the mineral vein!

This... credibility is so full——

After they exchanged those greedy looks with each other.

Brother Zifang...if you tell us this, you are our reborn parents!

It was obvious that Gu Yong was older, but when facing Mi Fang this time, the words brother Zifang simply brought the relationship to an extreme, to the extreme...

He behaves like a subordinate! In fact, in the face of such a huge benefit, let alone calling Brother Zifang, even calling Uncle Zifang...then...the heads of these big clans would not hesitate for a moment.

Compared to the prosperity of the family, compared to the countless wealth, dignity... is nothing but a hammer.

Mr. Gu...you, I...I...I can't afford it!

Brother Zifang! Gu Yong grabbed Mi Fang's hand, From now on, we are each the advocates of the clans in Jiangdong, but you are the clan leader of our big clans, no... you are our leader! You just What should we do? For the gold mines in Huainan, for the mineral veins in the north, for San Francisco overseas... From today on, if you point east, we will never attack the west. If you point the finger, we will never attack the north. From now on Later...we will board the big ship that you and Mr. Yunqi have. We will both be prosperous and suffer losses!

this…

Looking at Gu Yong and these wealthy people's scorching eyes.

Mi Fang was in a daze...

This seems a little too smooth, right? It went more smoothly than expected!

But having said that, Mi Fang can understand them very well. If they change positions, he would do the same thing if they change positions... He would even be able to put down his face and dignity.

Sure enough... greedy people all have something in common.

Ahem...

Mi Fang coughed slightly and said, There is no rush in this matter of ocean voyage. We need to take it step by step and take our time... Fortunately, my third brother has provided some drawings. According to the drawings, the ship was built in a year and a half. You can try going to the ocean...as for...those mineral veins in the north!

Speaking of the northern border, that is, the mineral veins of Ni Wei, Mi Fang couldn't help but put her chin in her hands. He smacked his mouth and said in embarrassment: If Cao Cao doesn't get out of the Central Plains? Where are we going to dig these mineral veins...

But my third brother has a way to get Cao Cao out of the Central Plains... He just needs some faces that are new to Ni Wei, and he has to plot against them! Deceive them.

Unfamiliar face?

Calculating?

Fraud?

It stands to reason that when these wealthy families in Jiangdong are often in trouble, they will definitely retreat. There is absolutely no reason to take the initiative to ask for help or sacrifice themselves.

But it's different now. This is about a huge wealth. It's about Guan Lin and Mi Fang... whether to take them to play or not.

Immediately…

I go…

I go…

Stop doing it, I have the rawest face...let me go!

None of you can do it. If it's a conspiracy, then I have to be appointed. During this period, I have always been against General Mi. How come Ni Wei didn't hear about it. Only if I come forward... is the most credible!

The person who said the last words was none other than Gu Yong!
