From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 516 Gold Mine
Grandfather discovered two gold mines when he was still alive, just in case he left a way for future generations and did not report to the emperor.Just send someone to guard it, thinking about when it needs to be used before digging.

After his father took over the title, he divided the hidden guards of the Mei family into nine, dug half of the golden mountain for military pay, and dug half of the golden mountain for Lu Jiuniang to do business with and established Ninghai Villa.Because of his plans for a rainy day, the remaining golden mountain has never been used, and Ninghai Villa has also earned a golden mountain for the Mei family in the past few decades.

The more he earns, the more he spends. As the leader of an army, he spends too much money, so there is nothing left.

He has fought wars all year round, and he knows the reason why soldiers and horses go before they move food and grass. He also knows that rebellion is not a one-sentence matter, and one must be prepared first.Therefore, the first thing to bear the brunt is to buy grain and grass.

The Mei family army has 30 troops, and the daily consumption is astonishing.Moreover, the food during the war is different from that during the truce. Once there is a fight, it is impossible to keep the soldiers hungry.Therefore, food and grass are the most important thing, which is why he summoned Lu Jiuniang first tonight.

If Lu Jiuniang couldn't believe it before, then she undoubtedly believed it and was sure when she heard about the gold mine.The joy in her heart couldn't be increased, she took the plum blossom token excitedly and said: "Please rest assured, general, this subordinate will not disgrace his life, and will definitely complete the task!"

A gold mine, she has never seen it before, and in recent years, she is almost worried about the military pay and food of the Mei family army and all the expenses of the Yiyingtang, and there is a gold mine.It's great, she likes gold the most, and now she doesn't have to worry about it every day.

Employers don't doubt people and don't need Mei Zhannan to call her, so they trust her very much, so, without saying anything polite, they just told her: "The people guarding the mountain know how to mine, you just need to supervise and assist. And just quietly transport the gold down the mountain. In addition, the emperor’s spies are all over the world, so you have to be careful whether you are buying grain or doing other things. There are still several months before spring, you can take this opportunity to open more grain shops, You can buy in large quantities when the new grains are in storage."

Granaries were built inside and outside the nineteenth city of Liangzhou. In the past ten years, he also secretly built granaries in other places.Therefore, if you are not afraid of too much food, you are afraid of not buying enough, and you are most afraid of being targeted by others.

Lu Jiuniang, who has been in business for many years, is very shrewd, and she is also very prudent as a girl who is not seventeen or eighteen years old.Knowing that this is a serious matter, she changed her previous attitude and said: "General, please rest assured, your subordinates will be careful and will never be targeted by others, let alone show their tracks."

With a plan in mind, Lu Jiuniang has a plan in mind.

Mei Zhannan saw that she had vowed to have a charter, and said: "From today onwards, you will contact me on a single line, and you must not tell anyone about the purchase of grain and grass, not even Fourth Master."

The matter of rebellion is too big, and the lives of the whole family are at stake. He still doesn't know how to tell his fourth brother.Moreover, he is a more reasonable person than himself, and he is not as courageous as himself. If he knew about it, he would definitely not agree.Therefore, you still need to find an appropriate time to talk to him slowly.

Since Sifang Mei Changwu did not become an official, he took over the dark guard camp ten years ago and has been helping the Mei family train the dark guards to handle intelligence. Many things cannot escape his eyes.Lu Jiuniang knew what a one-way connection was, and she also knew Mei Changwu's temper. She nodded and said, "This subordinate obeys orders, but the fourth master is in charge of information, so I'm afraid it won't be long before I hide it."

Although the secret guards of the Mei family are all over the world, they are all recorded in the book, and who is doing what and where is recorded in the secret guard camp.If he frequently appears in places where he shouldn't be, it will definitely attract the attention of other hidden guards.

Mei Zhannan had already thought about this problem, and said lightly: "A year ago, the fourth master will stay in Beijing, and I will send him to other places in the next year, so don't worry. Ye Lengluzhong should have kept you, but now there are people in the mansion. The emperor's eyeliner, be careful when you go out by yourself. I heard that Brother Ying's daughter-in-law is pregnant again, so be careful on the way to Liangzhou. I have already greeted Dr. An, you let Brother Ying and the others directly use the name of a distant relative The status is to live in the Anfu. The Anfu has practiced medicine for generations, and it will definitely ensure that she can give birth to a child smoothly."

Brother Ying is the youngest son under Lu Jiuniang's knees. He gave birth to a daughter before who almost died.Recently, his daughter-in-law was just two months pregnant, and Lu Jiuniang was very worried. She was looking for famous doctors everywhere during this time.

Three generations of An family ancestors were imperial physicians, and their medical skills were very good. Lu Jiuniang was overjoyed when she heard that, and saluted again: "Thank you for your concern, General, and I will salute the general on behalf of Brother Ying."

Waving her hand to signal her to get up, Mei Zhan Nanhun said indifferently: "They are all my own children, as they should be. This matter should be done sooner rather than later. In order to conceal people's eyes and ears, we should go in batches. It just so happens that you need guards on the way, so you take the opportunity to leave the house and go to the gold mine Bar."

The emperor repeatedly warned him verbally, and even threatened his own daughter, thinking that his patience was running out.Therefore, he was quick, he wanted to rebel before the emperor turned his face, and he was only allowed to win but not lose.

"Yes, this subordinate will leave!" After taking out the wound medicine she brought and putting it aside, Lu Jiuniang saluted again and left quickly.The body shape is the same as when the ghost Tathagata came, and she disappeared when the candlelight flickered.

Wei Dayong has been guarding the door, feeling that her breath has changed and she has already left, so he pushed the door and walked in.Seeing that Mei Zhannan was pale and seemed very tired, he closed the door and walked forward and said worriedly: "General, what's wrong with you, is the wound hurting again?"

Helping him to lie down and lifted the quilt to look at the wound, he couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief when he saw that there was no bleeding: "It's okay, it's a good thing it didn't burst. General, you can't always sit anymore, you have to lie down to recuperate."

Unexpectedly, he was so useless right now. Mei Zhannan felt a little uncomfortable. He touched the painful wound and said weakly, "Dayong, are you afraid?"

Wei Dayong didn't answer immediately, but helped him cover the quilt and squatted down beside the bed for a while, then hesitantly said: "I dare not lie in front of the general, rebellion is a serious crime to destroy the nine races, I'm afraid. But the general said that many things in this world can’t be avoided. Since the emperor wants to kill us, why should we be afraid? It’s better to go to hell with the whole family than to be killed on trumped-up charges. Strong, besides, 18 years later, he will be a hero again, and then I will follow the general to fight north and south to kill the Tartars."

After following Mei Zhannan for many years, he is very clear about his personality.If he hadn't been forced, there was nothing he could do, and he would never have rebelled.Speaking of which, the emperor's old man is so wicked that he ruined the life of the great general, not to mention the life of the major general, and now he wants to kill the donkey, which is really ungrateful!
