The control group of the ancient heroine

At the top of Qin Fang Beast Mountain, the tiger had woken up and ate a wild boar leg. Because the wild boar leg was mixed with Mongolian sweat medicine, it fell asleep again. What is surprising is that after the tiger woke up in the cage, it did not react excessively. It roared a few times first, then saw the chained man next to it, and became quiet again. Then it gnawed the wild boar leg. Fell asleep again.

When the tiger roared, it woke up the chained man. The chained man roared at the tiger. The chained man was stunned by the roar. Li Da and others did not know. They had never seen anyone who could hold them. The sound of a tiger's cry is so similar that if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't know it was a chained man's cry.

The soldiers sat on the ground to eat breakfast. Today's breakfast was sweet potato and brown rice porridge, which was enough to keep them full. But when Qin Fang came, he brought each of them a meat bun. The meat buns in Yunxiang County cost two cents each. The buns are not small, but the meat is small. But no matter how small it is, it is still meat.

Lieutenant Yang was sitting in third place, drinking sweet potato soup and biting into a meat bun, and said, "General, this tiger is rarely cooperative. It didn't hit the cage after waking up. It was originally considered dangerous."

Qin Fang said: "I have heard people say that when tigers reach their old age, they are not very good at hunting. They can only catch small animals to fill their stomachs, or wait to die. There is another ending, which is to wait for other wild beasts to kill them. It ate it. Judging from the condition of this tiger, it is estimated that it will not live much longer and may have given up its struggle. However, the way it gets along with the chained man is really amazing. They seem to communicate with each other through barks. "

It is a miracle in itself that the chained man can communicate with the tiger through vocalizations. Moreover, there are many secrets in the chained man.

In the middle, the tiger woke up again, and then another boar leg. The tiger was so happy to eat that it simply stopped doing anything, not even roaring, and just started eating in the cage. Occasionally, its eyes can be focused on the chained man, as if to observe his condition.

The chain man's chain has not been opened yet, he is used to wearing the chain, so it has no taste to everyone. The sweet potato porridge, the chain man eats it with relish. As for when Li Da asked him to take medicine, he was very cooperative. Of course, after he drank the medicine, Li Da꽬 would give him a piece of candy, so he always looked at Li Da꽬 with a dependent look, like a child relying on his mother.

"General...General..." Kunshi's panting voice came from behind.

In fact, he could have called the guards to call Qin Fang, but he wanted to see the Beast Mountain Taoist Temple, so he came here by himself, so he came from the military camp. In the past two years, Qin Fang has been After being released as a private guard, 껩 had no lack of training, otherwise he would really not be able to climb such a high mountain. "General, my wife has ordered her subordinates to find you..." Kunshi explained the matter again.

Qin Fang was a little surprised. At this time, his wife came to him. Even if he didn't know, there must be something important, so he said: "Lao Yang, if there is anything going on with the Taoist temple or the mine, come to see him anytime. Come back first." A trip to the house.”

Captain Yang: "Yes, General."

An hour later, Qin Fang returned to the general's mansion. Fortunately, going down the mountain is faster than going up the mountain. Although it is steep, it is not a problem for him.

Yang Haiyan was sitting in the courtyard waiting for him. While waiting for someone, she was idle and bored, and she was still making underwear in her hands. However, Kunshi's return lasted for more than two hours, or more than four hours, so he could have dinner.

As soon as Qin Fang entered the hospital, he asked: "Yanyan, what's the matter that makes Kunshi come here in a hurry?"

Yang Haiyan put down the things in her hands, went over and took Qin Fang's hand: "Come with me." She pulled him mysteriously into the house.

When Qin Fang saw her mysterious appearance, he was quite looking forward to it, but when she pulled her into the room with sulfur and saltpeter, he couldn't look forward to it anymore. "Yanyan, why did you stop me from coming here?"

Yang Haiyan pointed at the basin and said, "Look." Although more than two hours have passed, if the ice freezes slowly, the ice will melt even more slowly.

Qin Fang did not pay attention to Yang Haiyan's words. He just saw the basin and saw that there was ice in the basin. He was puzzled: "What's wrong with this basin? Is there ice so early? What are you going to do?" What’s the use of sending it?”

Yang Haiyan didn't think Qin Fang was wrong. How could a normal person think that saltpeter could be used to make ice? So she patiently explained: "This ice was not bought, and it is not used for other purposes. Saltpeter was put on the top of the basin, and it froze when it reached the middle. Mr. sir, don't you understand? Put the saltpeter in As long as there is more saltpeter in the water, the water will freeze in half a day."

Qin Fang filtered Yang Haiyan's words in his mind, and then opened his eyes suddenly: "Are you...are you saying that saltpeter can make ice when it meets water?" In this way, those poor people cannot afford ice. Isn’t it just cheap?

I have to say that Qin Fang's ideas are different from others. Some people know that saltpeter can make ice. They first think that 놅 is probably about making money. When Qin Fang knows this, he first thinks that 놅 is his surname.

Just like discovering sulfur and saltpeter, his first thought was that he could hit the enemy with big firecrackers, not that he was going to get rich. He has a responsibility to the people of the country, and this responsibility is enough for him to give up his personal interests.

Yang Haiyan looked at him, seeing the shock and joy in his eyes, but without greed. Such a man is so endearing.

He is not a stupid person, of course he knows how beneficial this matter is. If Qin Fang was stupid, he would not have written down the property of the bandits in the letter to Du Ke after suppressing the bandits, and would not have obscured the military pay. If Qin Fang was stupid, he would not hug Du Ke's thigh and find a backer for himself. So, he is smart and he knows how to fight for his own interests.

But when he strives for his own interests, he strives to be fair and aboveboard and will not harm the interests of others.

Yang Haiyan smiled: "Yes, saltpeter can make ice, sir. During the summer, if we use saltpeter to make ice and sell it, we can probably make a lot of money." Yang Haiyan wanted to hear Qin Fang's thoughts. , she naturally wouldn't do this. Saltpeter can be used to make ice for your own use, but not for selling.

Qin Fang was silent for a while after hearing this. He suddenly stretched out his hand and touched Yang Haiyan's head: "Yanyan, the matter of making ice with saltpeter must be reported to the court."

Yang Haiyan looked at him and was not in a hurry to ask.

Qin Fang smiled: "Yanyan is a smart girl. There are some things that we can fight for our own interests, but there are some interests that we cannot fight for with the court. A saltpeter mine has been discovered in Beast Mountain, and the court will send someone over soon. Can we fight for it? Asking the court how many baskets of saltpeter they want is the bottom line allowed by the court. However, they use the court saltpeter to make ice and sell it. This is equivalent to making money from the court's stuff. Although it is not illegal, the court knows it. Not a good thing.

Instead of doing this, it is better to tell the court about saltpeter ice making. In this way, the court may reward something more. We are making money for the court and are worried about it, but the court rewards us with money. Just feel at ease. Are you right? "

Qin Fang's bottom line is not to be greedy for gain, but to be aboveboard. He can use Mongolian sweat medicine to deal with bandits and tigers, but when the two armies are fighting, he cannot use Mongolian sweat medicine to deal with the enemy. This is a shameless act.

Yang Haiyan looked at Qin Fang with bright eyes: "Ms. sir, you are right, I will listen to you."

Qin Fang listened to her praise, and then looked at her eyes as bright as stars, feeling happy in his heart. There are some things that you will be tired of if you persist on your own but there is no one who cares about you. However, if the person you want to spend your life with has the same philosophy as you, that person will be lucky in his life.

Two days later, the capital.

Tao Shan came to the capital for the second time. Compared with the first time when he was cautious and confused, this time he was much more experienced. Although he was still cautious, he went directly to the Minister of War's Mansion as soon as he arrived in the capital. The guards guarding the Du Mansion are still the same team as in March. Although they have only met Tao Shan twice, once when Tao Shan entered the Du Mansion and once when Tao Shan went to the Du Mansion, the guards were impressed by Tao Shan's identity this time.

The guard said: "It turns out it's you, Brother Tao. Please wait a moment, Brother Tao. According to the rules, we must go in first to report."

Tao Shan cupped his hands and said, "I understand, I'm sorry to trouble this big brother."

The guard went in for a while, and soon the housekeeper came. It stands to reason that a person of Tao Shan's status does not need to be greeted personally by the housekeeper. However, the last time my lord came back from Huanshui County, he was full of praise for General Qin. Tao Shan is General Qin's confidant, and he must have been influenced by Qin when he came. After the general ordered, the steward came to greet him personally.

Butler: "Brother Tao, I didn't expect that we are so destined to meet each other again after just over two months."

Tao Shan immediately said: "Tao Shan is lucky to be able to meet you, Butler Du, so soon. Tao Shan was ordered by the general to see the general on important matters. He has something to do."

Upon seeing this, the housekeeper said: "Brother Tao, don't worry, I will send someone to invite you."

If it were not an important matter, General Qin would not send his confidants.

Ministry of War

"A sneeze..." Duko sneezed.

"My lord, have you caught a cold? The air has been blowing hot and cold lately. Your lord is busy with official duties, so please pay attention to your health." The subordinate flattered him and poured another cup of hot tea for Du Ke.

Du Ke said: "It's really strange. I've been in good health recently, and I just asked for a pulse in front of me." But why did he feel uneasy?

At this moment, someone came to report: "Mr. Du, the guards at your residence are here and say they have something important to see you."

Du Ke thought about it carefully, why are these words so familiar? "Let him in."

"yes."

The guard came quickly: "See you, sir." The guard did not say anything immediately, but glanced at Du Ke's subordinate before flattering him.

The subordinate immediately said: "My lord, I suddenly remembered that I have something important to do, so I will leave first."
