Destiny Only Han

Hearing Liu Ying's words, Liu Qi hesitated.

His mother always told him to hide his clumsiness. For this reason, he even deliberately wrote a few wrong questions in the exam, so as not to get a perfect score...

But this goes against the nature of children.

A child of his age always likes to be a conspicuous bag in the crowd, especially likes to express himself in front of his parents, and is eager to get their praise.

Therefore, he raised his face: "I think this is a hasty sabotage, not a long-planned attack!"

Liu Ying was expressionless.

But Liu Le, who put down the telegram in his hand, turned his head: "I have used explosives, isn't it a long-planned plan? How can ordinary people obtain such things as explosives? It is clearly written in the telegram, and the remaining explosives were found on the spot. Record mountain characters!"

"Obviously, this is a long-planned attack with internal and external collusion!"

"Strictly investigate, must strictly investigate!"

Well, she bought a bond with a river bridge...

Liu De opened his eyes wide: "Auntie, Auntie, where is Tonglu Mountain?"

Liu Le talked about him from left to right: "Don't always bark like that, are you a little pigeon? Coo coo coo coo..."

Zhang Dan and Zhang Wuji giggled.

Liu De pursed his lips a little bit aggrieved, and decided not to be with Liu Le again!

Liu Ying explained from the side: "Tonglu Mountain is a large copper mine in Nanjun. It has been mined as early as the Zhou Dynasty. In recent years, the scale of mining is less than one-tenth of the former Qin Dynasty. The copper mines are mainly from Beiting Duhufu and Tiannan Prefecture."

Liu De asked again: "The scale is small, is it because the digging is over?"

Liu Ying nodded.

Historically, Tonglu Mountain still had development value even in the Song Dynasty, but that was mainly due to the lack of copper, which led to no trace of copper mine being let go, and the more important reason was low productivity.

The improved steam engine not only pumps water, but relies on the steam engine to generate electricity, use electric drills to dig and transport ore with conveyor belts.

It is no exaggeration to say that since the steam engine was deployed in Tonglu Mountain, the amount of ore harvested by the mechanical team in one day is equal to the workload of the manual team in a year!
Of course, the biggest hero is actually the explosives.

After all, the most effective way to collect ore before this is to heat the ore with fire, and then pour cold water on it, so that the large stones will crack, and then the big stones will be smashed into small stones with knives and axes, and finally they will be slowly carried out by hand. mine.

With explosives, it's much easier.

Therefore, Liu Qi looked at Liu Le and said, "Auntie, do you know why I said it was a sabotage instead of an attack?"

Liu Le shook his head: "How can I know what your little head is thinking? Auntie is not the kind of guy who likes to read people's hearts like your father..."

Liu Ying: "..."

Liu Qi just pretended not to hear anything.

He continued: "Because the attackers didn't know how to use explosives at all, I think they should be a group of countrymen who have experience in setting off firecrackers on weekdays, but they don't have the ability to use explosives for directional blasting."

Liu Ying put down the wonton bowl: "Yo? Do you know about directional blasting?"

Liu Qi scratched his head, but only cast his eyes on Liu Le.

Liu Le was a little puzzled: "What do you see me doing? So what does the blasting have to do with me?"

Zhang Buyi was also bewildered.

After all, it was also the first time he heard the word.

Liu Ying suddenly realized: "I see, it turned out that I followed my aunt and robbed my own father! But it doesn't matter, there is a good saying, it is called a horse with thin hair, long hooves and fat feet, and a son who steals from his father is not a thief!"

It doesn't matter what a fart, he will blame Dou Yifang when he goes back!

Seriously ask the guilty!

Liu Le looked left and right, acting like Wang Baoqiang: "What is it, what is it all about?"

Liu Qi was a little embarrassed: "Once my aunt helped my father tidy up the warehouse, and I saw that the door of the warehouse was unlocked, so I went in and looked around, and then found a few books such as "Military and Local Talents" from the box. I brought back the book "Friends"..."

"Benefit a lot!"

Liu Le pinched Zhang Busu violently: "Damn it, I should have guessed that those old books are treasures!"

Zhang Buyi was bewildered.

He didn't participate in this matter from the beginning to the end, and he didn't know anything about it, okay?
So, he bared his teeth, trying to wake up Liu Le's remaining conscience, so as to comfort him...

Liu Le pouted, pretending he didn't see it.

What are old couples pretending to be?
She is useless!
But the real caring little padded jacket started to act.

Zhang Dan stood up, walked around and sat down between Zhang Buyi and Liu Le, rubbed Zhang Buyi's arm lightly, his pink and jade-carved face was full of heartache, and muttered: "Tang pain flies away, pain pain flies away!" gone……"

Zhang Buyi burst into tears.

Liu Le was stunned.

The sky has no eyes... Liu Ying thought about her little padded jacket that leaked air, and suddenly felt a bit of liver pain.

At the same time, he felt a little regretful in his heart. He knew that Liu Bang should be brought out, so that he could clearly recognize the difference between the caring little padded jacket and the black-hearted little padded jacket!

Liu Qi looked at Zhang Wuji enviously.

These are sisters from someone else's family, let's look at my sisters...

Just, very envious!

Zhang Wuji really wanted to jump up and say that this is not my sister, my sister is not like this on weekdays!
But Zhang Dan's threatening gaze inadvertently made him sit down obediently, sipping wontons...

After a while, Liu Ying brought the topic back and asked, "Then why do you think there was this destruction?"

Liu Le shook his head.

The same is true of Liu De.

Zhang Buyi wanted to speak, but finally held back.

After all, today is Liu Ying's godson, so what's the point of him answering every question?

Liu Qi thought for a while and pointed to the telegram: "Then it said that after being discovered, the attacker sailed downstream in a boat. The speed was extremely fast, and he was familiar with hydrology. It must be a local!"

Liu Ying nodded: "So?"

Liu Qi raised his face, very confident: "I think they should be the boatmen of a certain ferry! Well, they must be the boatmen!"

Liu Ying touched his head: "Not bad, not bad, it can be seen that your mother is well educated on weekdays."

So, tonight, Dou Yifang will be wearing a teacher uniform, wearing glasses, and holding a pointer...

Liu Le questioned from the side: "Huh? Just a few words, you know it? Why didn't I see it?"

Liu Ying immediately stood on the commanding heights: "If you are told to read more books and newspapers on weekdays, you will know how to eat and play, and now you are not as good as a child!"

Liu Le shrank his head subconsciously, but immediately glared at Doudou and put his hands on his hips: "You are yelling at me? I'm your sister, how dare you teach me a lesson? Brother, you're begging for a beating again, aren't you?"

Cool... Liu Ying pretended not to hear Liu Le's voice.

Liu Qi explained from the side: "Auntie, this is a good judgment. Auntie, if the Jiangshui Bridge is built, not many merchants will choose to cross the river by boat. After all, although the waterway is convenient, there is a risk of overturning, and There is also the possibility of being temporarily increased by the boatman or even robbed!"

"Well, that's how it's sung in the opera. It's said that it's the foot of the car and boat shop, and it should be killed if it's not guilty!"

Liu Le nodded in agreement, then looked at Liu Ying: "If this is the case, what are you going to do?"

Liu Ying cast a sideways glance at her, but said nothing.

After all, this matter is government affairs, and the matter itself can be used as a source of discussion, allowing everyone to discuss it, but the courtiers can only ask Liu Ying what to do, not Liu Le, the princess of the empire.

Liu Le knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and flattened his mouth: "Well, don't ask if you don't ask, who are you showing your ugly face?"

Liu Ying suddenly squeezed out a flattering smile.

After all, cannibalism is soft...

Liu Le suddenly became arrogant, turned his head with a snort, and squinted at Liu Ying: "Do you still want to eat? If there is anything you want to eat, I'll go buy it! Well, the stinky brother is not allowed to talk!"

Liu Qi raised his hand obediently: "Father, no, it's because I want to eat the scallion-flavored twist over there. Soak the fried twist in a bowl, not to mention how delicious it is!"

Liu Le nodded: "Okay, Auntie will buy it for you! Who else wants it?"

And it was everyone except Zhang Buyi who responded to her.

Well, Zhang Buyi is a fundamentalist. When eating wontons, he really only eats wontons, never adding noodles or other ingredients, especially for the "paomo" version similar to what Liu Qi said, and he hates it. .

Liu Le looked at Liu Ying's raised hand, kept a proud expression on his face, and walked quickly in small steps to the stall next door for fried dough twist.

Liu Ying looked at the open telegram and remained silent.

This matter is very small, but a group of unemployed boatmen are dissatisfied, so they take revenge on the society.

Therefore, it is only necessary to send the county captains of the counties and counties along the way to lead the team, and lead the wanderers and pavilion chiefs who arrest the thieves to arrest the boatmen and bring them to justice.

But if this matter is said to be big, it will be big!
Behind this vicious incident is actually a sharp social contradiction.

As it is said in a certain book, workers smashed machines in order to regain lost jobs.

After the completion of the Jiangshui Bridge, it is not only the boatmen who are unemployed?

What about textile factories?
Men farming and women weaving are the ideal division of labor for a family in an agricultural society.

A loom running all night destroyed at least 1 housewives' vision of using weaving to supplement their household expenses.

And this textile machine only needs three or five female workers.

It is true that "unemployed" housewives can engage in small farming at home, raising chickens and ducks for a small amount of money, or they can go to the city to do odd jobs such as washing clothes and pasting matchboxes.

But before that?

Therefore, Liu Ying has an intuition that behind all this is that the rapid industrialization process of Dahan has destroyed their original way of life, disrupted their rhythm of life, and finally made them take risks.

Thousands of miles away, he couldn't make a judgment from a short line of telegrams, and judge what happened to the group of boatmen, so he made such a decisive choice.

But he wanted to use this incident to understand what happened to the land under his feet.

So, Liu Ying looked at Liu Qi, who was chewing on the scallion twist, her eyes lit up, and a bold idea emerged in her heart. (end of this chapter)
