Chapter 10 Traveling again, a prank
After two months of running around in the village, Cheng Pan finally wiped out the village's arrangements. Most of the land has been plowed, and the houses in the village have been built. The village guard team can basically line up in neat rows and walk in step. The movement of using bamboo thorns has also begun to standardize. Now the 80 men in the village guard team are practicing, and they shout loudly during training and shout at the village on a larger scale. Cheng Pan sighs that being a lord in reality is completely different from playing strategic real-time games and cannot stop for a moment. However, Cheng Pan is extremely productive in the village.
Not satisfied. After asking the two old blacksmiths, they left most of the food in the sea of consciousness in the village and left the village again. (The commentary adds. The sea of consciousness is used to focus on the object being photographed first. This takes about 5 to 10 seconds. In other words, the high-speed moving object shot at the protagonist on the opposite side cannot be ingested, such as a bow and arrow, so the protagonist is not invulnerable to swords and guns. In addition, objects that are directly in contact with people will be affected by the will of people, so the protagonist cannot seize the blade with bare hands remotely. A weapon that is on his back can be stolen)
If we look at it from the map, the southeast bank of Xiao Huangzhou is the famous Ma'anshan. The reason why Cheng Pan chose Xiao Huangzhou was because of this mine... But now it seems that this is a mistake. Although the Yuan Dynasty did not rule Anhui, there were many heroes and heroes in Shanghuai at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. However, the Ma'anshan chosen by Cheng Pan was very close to Nanjing. Since the Southern Song Dynasty, any dynasty has attached great importance to Jiangnan's taxes. Nanjing is the top priority of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. In history, Zhu Yuanzhang struggled in Jiangnan for several years before he took Nanjing. Now the Yuan Empire is basically stable, and Cheng Pan is now frightened as if he was beside a giant beast. Now Cheng Pan has no chance to reopen the main base.
On Ma'anshan, Cheng Pan was wearing a Taoist robe, which was very cheerful in the late autumn and early winter sun. Cheng Pan ran all over the Ma'anshan area in the past ten days, asked more than a dozen villages, and finally found a vein of iron tetraoxide.
At this time, the middle-aged man beside Cheng Pan pointed to the black stones on the hillside and said, "Taoist Master, you want us to break these black stones every day, but you don't want us to transport them down the mountain. We don't understand the money we collected."
Cheng Pan smiled slightly and looked at the dozens of mountain people led by the middle-aged man in front of him and fooled, "My master wants to refine a magic weapon, and he needs obsidian here. As for the transportation path, he just learned the magic of the world in his sleeves. Please see." Cheng Pan waved his sleeves and used Cheng Pan as a radius of ten meters to disappear one after another. The mountain people knelt down and shouted at the master when they saw this magical scene. Cheng Pan quickly bowed and said, "Everyone, please get up quickly, I am not a master, just some magic, don't kill me." After some persuasion, Cheng Pan began to negotiate with the villagers. After Cheng Pan showed the "fairy art", the rhythm of business came with Cheng Pan's intention. Cheng Pan agreed with the villagers that the broken "obsidian" must not exceed the size of his fist.
Ten stones (about 600 kilograms) are one tael of silver. Cheng Pan will take it once a month. In a month, Cheng Pan will give each villager a hammer. For every 100 stones, more than two taels of silver are given. Cheng Pan does not restrict more people from mining. In other words, people in this small village can recruit people from other places. Cheng Pan shook another temptation. Three months later, if there are more than 300 adult men, the standard is between 18 and 40 years old. Cheng Pan will send people to count the amount of work each person and give twenty stones of "obsidian" to the mine every day, regardless of men, women, and young. Under such a big carrot, the village chief Luo Dalu, the middle-aged man who asked at the beginning, patted his chest and said, "Duanzhu."
After bringing the iron ore he consumed, Cheng Pan left Ma'anshan and took a boat to the south of the Yangtze River to Wuwei County. Wuwei County has a long history of mining coal.
After entering the county town, Cheng Pan tied a line with a coal boss from the Yuan Dynasty. In fact, it was nothing. After entering the county town, Cheng Pan met someone and asked if there was a coal purchase place here. Soon, he came to him alone.
Cheng Pan came to a large courtyard and looked at the mansion like Suzhou gardens. He sighed that no matter which era the coal boss was a rich man. After walking two steps, he came to a room with a wealthy dress waiting inside. Cheng Pan walked into the room and suddenly felt some situation with a super feeling. He turned his mind quickly and walked in without changing his expression. The person in the room stood up and bowed and said, "I'm the next person Huang, I dare to ask the Taoist priest, but I want to buy coal." Cheng Pan also bowed.
He bowed and said, "That's right, I'm so sorry to buy some coal back." "Absolutely, ask the Taoist Master, where is Guiguan Xian Township." Cheng Pan thought for a while and decided to make a prank and said, "The master has lived on Mount Everest in the Himalayas for a long time." The businessman named Huang was stunned and seemed to want to speak again. Cheng Pan pretended to be impatient and said, "Shopkeeper Huang, can you let me see the coal?" "Let's go?" Cheng Pan said, and the two walked out of the door.
Behind the screen of the room, a beautiful loli came out, followed by two people in their fifties in their blushed faces. The loli said softly, "Mountain Everest? This is not Chinese." She lowered her head and thought for a while and asked, "The two elders of Xuanming are only twenty years old, and they are as skilled as you said." "The princess is not wrong. This person breathes strongly, his steps are light, and his clothes are not covered with dust. His skills are definitely more than one hundred years." "You have heard of Mount Everest." Zhao Loli asked again. The two elders of Xuanming said, "I don't know what the word "Merma" means, but I heard the monks in Tubo say."
At this time, Cheng Pan and Manager Huang came to the coal yard, where several piles of coal were here. Cheng Pan pointed to a large pile and said, "These are about seven or eight thousand stones, about eight hundred taels. You are a master, just---" Before he finished speaking, Cheng Pan threw out a pile of gold. "This is one hundred taels of gold, you count." Manager Huang looked surprised. He didn't know how the little Taoist priest in front of him put the one hundred taels of gold on his body. He squatted down and picked up a gold bar and bit it.
It must be real gold. Then he asked, "The price of the Taoist priest is right, do you want me to prepare a convoy for you?" Cheng Pan said, "No need." The coal mine disappeared with a wave of his hand. Boss Huang settled it blankly for a while before he found that Cheng Pan had walked to the door of the coal yard and shouted, "Stay Chief, Stay Stroll." Cheng Pan did not look back but said loudly, "Don't send it to Mr. Huang, I'll do it for the little master behind your screen. If she plots against others, she will be plotted against by a woman named Zhou."
