Step on a branch

Chapter 344

The word "mine" fell to the ground like a thunder, and sparks exploded.

No matter how calm he is, this matter is enough to make people look at each other in dismay.

I thought that Deng Guoshi's death was an extremely unfavorable situation, not only destroying their previous prefabricated plan, but also drawing salary from the bottom of the pot.

How can the fire burn when the salary is gone?
How hot is that kettle?

There is no suitable supply in hand, how to replace salary in a short while?

But no one thought that although there was no salary, the eldest princess prepared explosives.

Not to mention burning a cauldron, the whole kitchen can be blown up to ashes.

It is true that they don't know the specific situation yet, but as long as the "mine" is involved, the situation behind it cannot be trivial.

Lin Fan collected himself and said, "If I remember correctly, the Yan family made their fortune from mining, right?"

It was the first time Qin Luan heard of this news.

Marquis Yongning knew the truth, and replied: "Yes."

Qiyang produces ore.

Since the early years of the former dynasty, Qi Yang has been developing this industry since he discovered the minerals.

Of course, it was established by the imperial court, and the mined ore was also handed over to the imperial court by the government.

When the country is prosperous and the people are safe, the officials below and the bosses of the mines do not dare to enrich their own pockets with great fanfare. At most, they do a little business in money.

The ancestors of the Yan family were the masters of a mine at that time, so they saved the principal bit by bit.

At the end of the former dynasty, when the little emperors were assisted to ascend the throne one by one, and there was chaos everywhere, how could Qi Yang be controlled?
The Yan family held the right to speak in the mine, and after several years, almost the entire mine was under control.

As a result, the Qiyang government had to look at the face of the Yan family instead.

When it really entered the troubled times, the warlords from all over the country were in a mess, and the imperial court that existed in name and death had long been lost in their eyes, and they each strengthened their own.

Qi Yangyan's family holds the mine in their hands, an existence that no one dares to offend in troubled times, and an existence that everyone wants to take a big bite of.

Embrace the guilt.

It was precisely because of this that the head of the Yan family at that time, who was also the father of the empress dowager, chose the late emperor.

That's a deal.

The Yan family needed support and also fought for power; Zhao Hui needed weapons, food and grass, and a lot of money to fight the world.

The two parties naturally hit it off, and getting married is the bond.

Although the Yan family in Qiyang can't charge forward, they can make Zhao Hui's soldiers have good weapons and enough food, and what the Yan family can get is the position of phoenix, the status of foreign relatives after the establishment of the new dynasty.

The hatchback is suitable.

In this transaction, Yongning Hou, as the late emperor's vanguard general, participated in the whole process back then.

When Lin Fan mentioned it, of course the old Hou Ye could speak clearly and clearly.

After hearing this, Lin Fan hesitated and said, "After the establishment of the dynasty, all mine production should be returned to the state treasury."

"According to the rules, of course it is like this," Marquis Yongning touched his beard and said, "But in fact, there may be some deviations, so he was caught."

As for the "specificity", they have to ask Lord Wending.

The flying gate was closed and sank into the night.

By the time Qin Luan and the others reached the town, it was already late at night.

After all, he is still an "anti-thief". Even the generals and soldiers in the battalion have some opinions on the imperial decree. After taking Xizhou City, they even sneered at Beijing Zhongliang's framing of Zhongliang. However, it is better to keep a low profile.

There are many people in the daytime, and you will be noticed when you go out.

It's not so eye-catching at night.

Qin Luan led the way and led Qin Wei and Lin Fan to that alley.

Walking outside the house, Lin Fan stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Inside, Qian'er came to answer the door.

Opening the wooden door, seeing Lin Fan facing him, Qian'er's eyes widened suddenly: "You..."

Lin Fan stepped aside half a step, revealing Qin Luan's father and daughter behind him.

Qian'er raised her hand and tightly covered her mouth, her eyes turned red in an instant.

Seeing this, Qin Luan leaned forward: "You won't let me in?"

She had a smile on her face, her eyes were bent into crescent moons, and her voice was soft but kind.

Qian'er hurriedly nodded vigorously: "Grandpa, son, eldest girl, come in quickly."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and went inside to report the letter.

After the report was over, he didn't go in, and turned his head again, looking at it for a moment.

According to the news before, the eldest girl was alive and kicking, and Qian'er's heart had long been relieved.

Besides, the eldest girl has been in Mount Tai for many years, and Qian'er stayed in Dongyuan alone. Compared with following the girl for half a year, Qian'er is even more used to waiting.

But it wasn't until she saw the eldest girl whom she hadn't seen for a long time that Qian'er knew that she really missed her.

The big girl who does daily classes, the big girl who stands on the wooden pier and practices agility, the big girl who plays with Fu Ling, the big girl who reads the storybook...

It was so much fun being around girls.

In several rooms, a lot of people came out at once.

Qin Feng came out in three steps and two steps, looked at his sister and then at his father, and after making sure that they were all right, he grinned.

Mrs. Dingguo couldn't sit still, and when she saw Lin Fan, she held his hand tightly, saying a thousand words, but she couldn't say anything.

The window was half open, and Mrs. Yongning Hou's voice came from inside.

"Let's talk in the room, otherwise, the pleasantries will last until dawn."

Qin Wei heard the old mother's voice, so he went inside.

After seeing her, he hurriedly knelt down to salute, but was stopped by Mrs. Hou.

"I know you are filial," she said, "There are so many people here, it's crowded, and there's no room for it, so it's inevitable."

Qin Wei said, "Thank you for your hard work on this journey."

It is difficult for them to fight at the border, but it is not easy to involve Beijing and China.

Madam Hou withstood the pressure, commanded properly, and did not misread or miss any sign of trouble, so that everyone could retreat unscathed.

This is the mother's great achievement.

Furthermore, A Luan was trapped in the mansion of Duke Anguo that day, if her mother hadn't rescued her personally, maybe...

Even if it is said that a family's blood is thicker than water, helping each other is not something to be thankful for, but Qin Wei is still extremely grateful.

Similarly, he is also grateful to Qin Zhi and his wife.

When he was playing in Xiliang and couldn't take care of his family, he relied on Qin Zhi and Ji's two capable lieutenants to reunite his family here.

"It's not easy for them to go out to camp at night." Madam Hou invited Lin Zhi to come forward, "Let's talk about the important things first."

Lin Fan asked: "I heard that the eldest princess has not arrived?"

Lin Zhi nodded, and said, "The eldest princess has gone to Qiyang."

Qin Luan blinked.

Marquis Yongning said that when Princess Dudu didn't arrive, she had already guessed.

That person is by no means "left behind". She must have important things to do, and she can only do them.

Nine out of ten, it will be related to the Yan family's mine.

But Qin Luan did not expect that the eldest princess would go deep into the tiger's den.

Is she going to snatch the tiger?

Under the eyes of the Yan family, as a "rebel", swaggering to snatch it?
What a bold man.
