Chapter 1112

A thousand pounds are not much, but don’t forget that this is just a small batch of smuggling from thick iron.

It's just a drop in the bucket!

The prince's face looked extremely ugly: "The iron ore in Hulang Mountain has been concealed for so many years. The bandit village mines iron ore day and night, smuggles it into the Construction Department of the Ministry of Industry, and smels it into rough iron, and then uses the wood and stone materials of the Ministry of Industry to secretly transport it.

go out.

This behavior must have been more than once or twice!

The Ministry of Industry has to ship the wood and stone raw materials every half a month. Even if they only have one thousand kilograms each time, the crude iron that has been secretly transported out is definitely not a small amount after so many years!"

One thousand kilograms per month, two thousand kilograms per month, and twenty-four thousand kilograms a year.

What if it is three years, five years, or even ten years?

How many iron ore is there in Beiqin?

Over the years, those who have been secretly poached and transported out are enough to replace the army with a batch of new weapons!

The prince felt so painful when he thought about it, and his face turned blue with anger.

From ancient times to the present, the number of iron ore has been an important criterion for determining the strength of the seven countries. No matter how strong a military combat effectiveness is, if there are no weapons in his hands, no armor on his body, or even bows and arrows, his combat capabilities will be weakened by at least 80%.

He has no combat power and can only be slaughtered by others!

The prince made a quick decision and said, "This matter is of great importance. I must return to the palace to report to my father immediately!"

He turned to look at Zhan Beihan and Xiao Lingyue: "Third brother, Miss Shen, do you want to enter the palace together?"

"Don't go!" Zhan Beihan refused directly.

"I'll forget it." Xiao Lingyue shook her head, "Your Majesty only ordered me to assist Your Highness to find the iron ore smuggled by the Ministry of Works. Now my mission has been completed. As for the thorough investigation of the Ministry of Works, it involves officials in the court,

I'm not comfortable participating."

A woman's regent is a very sensitive thing.

Xiao Lingyue did not intend to take power in the Northern Qin Dynasty, so there was no need to get involved in such court disputes.

The prince knew what she was avoiding, so he no longer asked: "Then I will take a step first, and return to Beijing to report to my father that the thick iron will be sent to the Longlin Guard's camp for the time being, and they will be responsible for the supervision to avoid

Shock the snake.”

Zhan Bei said coldly: "Yes, please be careful on the way back to Beijing and let the Dragon Scale Guard escort you into the palace."

The prince was stunned.

Zhan Bei's cold Bingbing said, "Just be in case!"

Although the prince intercepted the wood and stone materials of the Ministry of Works by borrowing the Dragon Scale Guard, the possibility of leakage of the wind is very small.

But iron ore smuggling is unusual.

Once the master behind the scenes notices the turmoil, the other party will take risks and do crazy things that will ignore the consequences in order to protect themselves?

Even a dignified prince is at risk of being killed.

The prince's heart was trembling, his expression became solemn, and he nodded: "Okay, I will bring a team of Dragon Scale Guards to escort him. Third brother, you and Miss Shen should be careful on the way back to Beijing!"

"If these people dare to find me, I will admire them."

Zhan Beihan sneered contemptuously: "A group of rats who only dare to hide behind the scenes and make tricks!"

"The rats are disgusting, and it is also a problem to be targeted. In short, be careful yourself." The prince shook his head and looked at Xiao Lingyue who was silent beside him, "The same is true for Miss Shen."

Xiao Lingyue nodded: "I understand."

Zhan Beihan said angrily: "Don't talk too much, hurry up!"

One thousand kilograms of thick iron were handed over to the Dragon Scale Guard and secretly kept it back to the military camp.

The prince also hurriedly left with a team of Dragon Scale Guards.

There were still some Dragon Scale Guards stationed in the valley, guarding the remaining wood and stone materials, waiting for the prince to bring the next order from the palace.
