The four people came over, picked up the jade pendant, and looked at it carefully.

"This seems to be an identity document."

"The quality of the jade pendant is really good."

"Young master is a descendant of the Xia royal family?"

"Ah? Really?"

Yang Gan smiled slightly and said, "I am the youngest son of King Xia Wen."

"Wow~~~~!"

All four people were in an uproar. This identity was really shocking. The most important thing was, why did a young master come to a bitter and cold place to become a general?

Shui Hu frowned and said uncertainly, "Wait a minute, King Xia Wen's youngest son seems to be named Ji Zhao, and he is an evildoer."

"Yeah, I've also heard that bad people have sores on their heads and pus on their feet."

"At such a young age, he actually molested the Prime Minister's daughter. Tsk, tsk, tsk, you really have the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard."

.......

Yang Gan rubbed his temples with a headache. How many people had this guy offended? Even people in Shangguo knew about his reputation.

Holding the jade pendant, Xiao Yu looked at Yang Qian in disbelief and said tentatively, "Master, you won't tell us that you are Ji Zhao."

"Oh~~~Yes, yes, that Ji Zhao with sores on his head and pus on his feet is me."

Yang Gan's face was very ugly. It wasn't that he was afraid of being scolded. After all, he had never experienced any kind of scolding battle on the Internet. The main reason was that he didn't get any benefits, but he was scolded all over his body. This was a bit too much.

Even the streets of Yuntong City have their own legends circulating. Although I have withdrawn from the world, my legend still exists in the world.

Seeing Yang Qian's admission, the four of them opened their eyes wide, and moved back without leaving any trace, with the expressions of an aunt who saw a man coming.

This person is a name, and the tree is a shadow. As soon as Ji Zhao's name comes out, everyone is thinking about it.

"Sir, are you really Ji Zhao?"

"I heard that Ji Zhao is a very bad person."

"Yes, yes, I heard about it too."

Looking at their eyes, Yang Gan said dissatisfiedly, "Don't look at me as if you're seeing shit, okay? I don't remember what happened before."

Xiao Yu asked curiously, "Sir, what does this mean?"

Yang Gan told the truth about being demoted, suffering from hysteria, and taking root here, adding some rhetorical techniques of course.

"Hahahaha, the young master's head was hit just right."

"I really should thank the Huns who hit the young man on the head."

"I think the Huns should be allowed to beat the young master a few more times, maybe he will be smarter."

"You bunch of beasts~~~~!"

Yang Gan directly ignored their words and said, "I tell you my identity because it can reassure you. There is no such thing as great achievements here. Is it possible that the king will harm his own son?"

Shui Hu finally breathed a long sigh of relief and said happily, "Sir, since you have this status, I'm relieved."

The words were said beautifully, but the four of them couldn't help but scan Yang Qian up and down. This kind of gaze made Yang Qian extremely uncomfortable.

"I promise, if you dare to look at me like this again, I will dig out all your eyes."

"Wow, look, he is anxious. He is indeed Ji Zhao, cruel and unkind..."

"It's really cruel to gouge people's eyes out at every turn."

Yang Gan sighed, he really didn't know what he had done.

"What? If you know that I am Ji Zhao now, you have decided not to work for me and want to find another way out?"

The four of them looked at each other and laughed awkwardly.

"Sir, don't be joking. We are all your subordinates and retainers. How could this happen?"

"Okay, now that you know my identity, what worries do Shui Hu and Shi Huacai have?" After Yang Gan finished speaking, he quickly took the jade pendant back. This thing cannot be lost, in case it is dropped. If so, it would be much more difficult than getting an ID card.

Shui Hu immediately stood up, took out a sheepskin from his arms, and spread it out on the table.

Looking at the picture on the sheepskin with neither warp nor weft, Yang Gan was confused and said, "What is this? The painting is quite ugly!"

"Hahahahaha~~~~~!"

Shi Huacai smiled and said, "I told you to let me paint, but he just didn't believe it."

Shuihu looked embarrassed and ignored everyone's ridicule, pointing to the area clearly marked by him on the map.

"Sir, since we helped Brother Ouye build the water conservancy plant, we have been working hard on exploration. So far, we have discovered one iron mine, two tin mines, two copper mines, and three gold mines."

"Although mining has not started yet, you can see from the ore alone that the quality of the mine is very good."

Following Shui Hu's introduction, Yang Qian's eyebrows curved upward involuntarily.

"Is this true?"

"really."

"Why, there are actually three gold mines?" Yang Qian felt that gold was so rare, so there wouldn't be many gold mines.

Shuihu wondered, "Sir, there are actually a lot of gold mines, but mining and refining gold is not easy. It is very slow and takes a long time. But we were lucky this time and found gold nuggets and gold sands."

Suddenly Yang Gan remembered something, that is, during the Qin Dynasty and Han Dynasty, the gold reserves were very high. Every time the emperor rewarded others with thousands of gold, tens of thousands of gold, of course some people would say, those are copper.

But Yang Qian did not agree. Judging from the historical data he consulted, there was a concept of rewarding copper, but most of them were gold rewards, because in the Qin and Han Dynasties, silver was called platinum, gold was still called gold, and copper was called red gold.

But it is undeniable that there is a difference between the two words gold and copper. The ancients were not as stupid as modern people think. In addition, gold itself is a non-renewable resource, and gold can only be produced by the explosion of a super planet.

Since ancient times, to be honest, whoever starts mining gold must have the most advantage, because the first one to mine gold always mines the easiest open-pit gold mine.

"Sir, are we going to start mining now?"

Yang Gan looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Yu'er, what suggestions do you have?"

After Xiao Yu pondered for a while, he smiled and said, "The heavy snow has begun. The soil is hard, not to mention the ore. Many places where the rivers are not fast will also freeze, but this kind of weather is suitable for the solidification of cement."

Yang Gan raised his eyebrows and guessed, "You mean to build the mine first?"

"That's right, count the number of people first, and then start building buildings on the mine. Don't use wood this time, just use cement. Young Master, there are more than 600,000 Huns in the pass. I think it is most appropriate to select some of the Huns. .”

Xiao Yu talked step by step, most of it going into Yang Qian's heart. He couldn't help but nod in approval, "Yes, Yu'er's plan is very good. In this way, Yu'er, Shi Huacai, you two can handle this matter for me. Of course It’s snowing heavily now, so safety comes first.”

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

"promise!!!"

"Sir, I think it's okay to write to the king to start recruiting troops?"

Yang Qian looked at Xiao Yu in surprise and asked, "Why are we recruiting troops?"

Xiao Yu rolled his eyes at him, "Eight new mines have been opened. Even if a thousand soldiers are stationed in each mine, it will still require 8,000 people. Even 1,000 people are not enough. We need 2,000 to 3,000 people to guard them. How many people are eight? Baiyun Half of Guan’s current garrison will be mobilized.”

"Most of the current garrison at Baiyunguan are guarding the Huns slaves, and they also have to be wary of the Yeli clan, so they are very limited in terms of manpower."

Yang Qian suddenly remembered that there was such a thing. Sure enough, there was a plan to help him get the details, but it was different.

"Okay, I will write to the king right away, not only to recruit troops, Yu'er, don't you think raising young men from the Yeli clan is a hidden danger?"

Yang Gan's eyes turned cold, and Xiao Yu immediately understood.

"Do you want the young men of the Yeli clan to join the army?"

"No, it is to join the garrison guarding the mine. Firstly, it will speed up assimilation, and secondly, it can disperse their military strength. In a few years, there may be no Yeli clan in the world, but we, Xia Kingdom, will have an extra Yeli clan. It’s just Li’s surname.”

"Young master is brilliant." After all, Xiao Yu is a person of this era and cannot start from the overall situation. Yang Qian stands on the shoulders of giants.

He understands one thing, that is, population, population and land are the most important materials in the world.

In the previous life, there were many countries with very developed economies, such as Ruidian, Ruishi, and Xingapo. However, due to their land and population, these countries were destined not to become powerful countries. They seemed to have unlimited scenery, but they could only mediate back and forth between big countries. ,on one's last legs.

There is enough land now, not only the grassland, but also the land of Xia Kingdom is not small, but the population is a bit difficult.

The infant mortality rate in this era is too high, and sometimes abandoned dead babies can be seen in the wild.

Therefore, the more than 600,000 soldiers of the three tribes, plus the hundreds of thousands and millions of people on the grassland, will all be the people of Daxia in the future, and the backward civilization will surely be replaced and swallowed up by the advanced civilization. .

"Everyone has dispersed and gone to work. Winter has just entered and it's not very cold yet. In another half month, it will be really cold."

"I don't want a single word of what I said here to spread."

"No~~~!"

When Yang Gan came outside, the snow had stopped, and everywhere he looked was a vast expanse of white, as if the entire mountain was covered in silver.

Krisna and I are still very curious about the snow outside. Our hometown is tropical. Although there is winter, it rarely snows. Of course, there are areas where it snows heavily, but after winter, we rarely go to such places.

Fujiko Jin tightened his mink cloak. His body was warm, but the tip of his nose was a little red from the cold.

"How was the discussion?" Fujiko Jin asked.

"It's not bad. I'm not stupid. Many things are easy to understand. Alas~~~I still have to find a way to increase the food production."

Yang Gan scratched his head, looking a little annoyed.

"Take your time, I've eaten your potatoes and corn, and they taste really good. Today is only the first season. After planting next spring, our place will surpass the fertile fields of Guanzhong."

Fujiko Jin is a merchant. There is no such thing as a major these days, and there is no so-called involution. As long as the merchant can make money, it is within the sales of merchants, including grain, of course, and he knows grain very well.
