There are many people and great power, which definitely makes sense in ancient times when productivity is underdeveloped.

In the next few days, news of mine veins being discovered in various mine caves.

In order to prevent outsiders from entering, Maoliannu directly built a simple fence on the periphery, and at the same time sent his tribe members and Cheng Mingting to jointly guard it.

In the smelting workshop, Wang Tieshan was laughing at the endless stream of ores.

Since the discovery of the ore veins, Wang Tieshan has been appointed as "Si Jin" to be responsible for ore mining.

Starting from the Northern Zhou Dynasty, six officials were appointed according to the Zhou rituals, among which the craftsman was the official of the Five Destiny Winter Officer.

"Tongdian" records: "The five fates:...Winter official: Ministry of Works, Craftsmen, Simu, Situ, Sijin, Sishui, etc."

Although Yang Fan appointed the position of "Si Jin" only an official under the ninth rank, it also helped Wang Tieshan get rid of his craftsmanship.

Of course this made him ecstatic and it was a waste of time to do his job.

Seeing Cheng Mingting bringing people to patrol the mountains, he quickly reported: "General, the ore production in today reached 5,000 stones, twice as high as yesterday."

"The output is so high?" Cheng Ming was a little surprised.

No wonder he is like this, 5,000 stones may not feel anything in future generations with modern tools.

But in ancient times, hundreds of thousands of kilograms of ore were definitely huge numbers.

Wang Tieshan picked up a piece of silver ore that was estimated to weigh five kilograms in front of him, and couldn't help but crack his mouth and said, "General, you see, this is the ore we dug. The veins of those silver ores are simply amazing, and there is no other thing involved. This is higher than the silver ore. In addition, thousands of Fusang people have been recruited to work in the past two days. Those Fusang people are short, but mining is definitely a good person, and it is no different from picking up stones."

Indeed, Maoliannu recruited thousands of Fusang miners in one breath, and managed so many people under his command, Wang Tieshan was of course very proud.

The most important thing is that the veins are very shallow and there is no need to dig deep, so the mining speed is even more ideal than imagined.

"Yes, keep working hard. If those miners have any abnormal movements, please report them early." Cheng Mingting nodded and affirmed Wang Tieshan.

Then he turned to look at Maori'nu and said, "I heard that many Fusang people have secretly ran down the mountain these days, so you have to take precautions."

Although Cheng Mingting was very pleased to see the piles of silver, he was a little worried.

Maoliannu patted his chest: "General, don't worry, general, I didn't build a fence a few days ago, so that these Fusang people have an opportunity to take advantage of it. Yesterday, the tribe members caught a fleeing Fusang miner and beheaded directly. I guess these people dare not joke about their lives."

"I was worried about not the miners here, but about the news about Yinshan would cause unnecessary trouble after it spread."

Cheng Ming is very clear about the principle of moving wealth.

Put yourself in mind. If you are the ruler here, if you find such a large silver mine, any risk is worth taking.

There are nearly 5,000 Fuso miners in the entire Shijian Yin Mine, and there are only about 2,000 guards and Maoliannu tribesmen.

If you only manage these mining projects, there is naturally nothing to worry about.

Not to mention 5,000 miners, even if he adds ten times, his guards can handle it easily.

Cheng Ming was quite worried that after the news was revealed, it would cause Emperor Fusang Shuming to peep.

No matter what, this is their home court.

What's more, this wealth is too great, and the other party is likely to take risks.

You should know that the tax in the entire Fusang Kingdom is only more than 200,000 yuan per year.

And here can at least smelter millions of silver in a month. The emperor is far away from the mountains of Jiangnan. Yang Fan can't come so quickly if he wants to support him.

Seeing that there was more and more silver here, and Yang Fan was already pulling the prepared silver to go back to Jiangnan, Cheng Mingting was really worried about something going on.

In fact, Cheng Mingting’s worries make sense.

Because Shijian Silver Mine recruited a large number of workers and some Fusang people escaped, the news that a large number of silver mines appeared here instantly spread throughout the country of Fusang.

The capital of Fusang State, Pingchengjing, is one of the birthplaces of ancient Fusang culture.

Historically, the Hirachi-kyo-kyo was built in the Nara Prefecture, where 90% of the powerful people of Fusang were lived.

As the leader of Fusang Kingdom, Emperor Shu Ming naturally lived here.

It is undeniable that Emperor Shuming is an ambitious and ambitious king.

Shortly after ascending the throne, he sent the Tang envoy to the Tang Dynasty, of course, to steal the army, which was ambitious.

Now that I know that an outsider like Yang Fan actually found an amazing silver mine in his own country, I naturally had a bad idea.

So, the emperor rushed to invite all the ministers to discuss how to recover the Ishimi Mine.

But after studying for a long time, if normal means are used, there is no reason to recover the mine.

After all, Yang Fan purchased it through "regular" procedures.

Now Emperor Shu Ming is really sagging his feet and stamping his chest.

At first, I thought it was a place where birds would not shit, but I didn't expect that Tangren discovered such a large silver mine there.

According to the detailed information from the Fusang people, Shi Jian Yin Mining produced tens of thousands of taels of silver per day. How could he not be moved?

After considering with all the ministers, Emperor Shu Ming decided to take risks.

"Minister Teng Yuan Zuo, I decided to send troops to take down Shi Jian Yin Mine. What do you think?"

The left minister was the de facto highest responsible person of the Fusang court.

Since I want to send troops to take down Shi Jian Yin Mine, I naturally have to seek opinions from Teng Yuan.

Teng Yuan thought for a while and said, "His Majesty the Emperor, if we attacked each other for no reason, would we order the Tang Dynasty to send troops? It is said that Yang Fan, who bought the stone and silver mine, was the great governor of the Tang Dynasty court."

Hearing this, Emperor Shu Ming hesitated.

Indeed, the Tang Dynasty is now invincible, so who dares to fight against the Tang Dynasty?

If the Tang Dynasty really sent troops, their Fusang Kingdom would have to destroy it.

But Emperor Shu Ming was unwilling to accept it!

If you can only watch such a huge amount of wealth there, wouldn’t it be like putting a piece of meat in front of a hungry wolf without being allowed to eat it?

Of course, not only Emperor Shu Ming was unwilling to accept it, but Shiro Ibene was even more unwilling to accept it.

As the right minister of Fusang State, since he went to the Tang Dynasty and witnessed the prosperity of Chang'an, he has never been used to poverty.

Now that he has such a good opportunity to win the Shijian Silver Mine, he will never let it go.

In his opinion, if we have this silver mine, we can become a superior person by taking money to live in the Tang Dynasty.

Seeing that Emperor Shu Ming was a little relieved, he quickly persuaded: "His Majesty the Emperor, this silver mine is really as big as the rumor says. What is the risk of offending the Tang people?"

"Besides, the Tang Dynasty and Fusang Kingdom are high and the road is far away, and there is a vast ocean between them. How could the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty not have been able to go to war with us for a silver mine."

"What's more, the people who found that these silver mines had not left our Fusang territory. The most important thing is that Yang Fan was carrying millions of taels of silver to ship. As long as we move more concealedly, haha, there are many pirates here..."

Yes, the more Emperor Shu Ming thought about it, the more he felt that the plan was very feasible.

As long as you keep all Yang Fan and others, who knows that they did it?

Emperor Shu Ming couldn't help but feel excited, waved his hand and said, "Since that's the case, let's send 30,000 troops, 20,000 soldiers besieged Shi Jianyin Mine, killed all the insiders, and 10,000 navy intercepted Yang Fan and sent them all to the sea to feed the fish..."

"I am willing to lead 10,000 navy troops to grab our UnionPay. Please forgive me for your kindness!" Shiro Ibene said angrily.

In his opinion, more than 10,000 navy masters could definitely easily destroy Yang Fan.

At that time, the more than one million taels of silver will be secretly cut off, and no one will dare to say anything as long as Yang Fan and the others sank the silver to the bottom of the sea.

...

When Emperor Fuso conspired to deal with Yang Fan, a pier in Shimane Prefecture, Ishimi Silver Mine is located.

The water waves were rippling on the water, floating around and round toward the outside. Four huge warships on the pier were docked next to the pier, and other ships were circling one after another.

After looking closely, it turned out that Xue Rengui was commanding the guard to load boxes of silver and copper onto the ship.

Whether it is silver or copper, they are precious metals of this era. You must know that copper is the raw material for casting copper coins!

Seeing the four warships drastically deeper, Quan Wanji and his party couldn't help but sigh.

Once he went out of the sea, he actually got back millions of silver and copper coins. No wonder Yang Fan was so concerned about Jiangnan. It was faster than robbing money!

When the assembly was completed, Quan Wanji came to Yang Fan and asked, "Grandmaster, everything has been loaded. Is it going to go now?"

Yang Fan withdrew his gaze, hesitated for a while and said, "Why don't Quan Changshi go back to the city to rest for a while, and then pick you up when we eliminate those clowns?"

Quan Wanji was slightly stunned and asked, "What the Grand Governor means is we in danger?"

hehe!

Yang Fan smiled, and he was extremely confident in this: "Of course there is no danger, but some people are jealous of our things, so they don't have to think about it and know that they won't let us leave easily!"

"Oh? Since there is no danger, why should my subordinates avoid it? As long as the governor doesn't feel the burden, my subordinates also want to see the power of this new warship? Although Quan has been a weak scholar for a lifetime, and cannot hold his shoulders or pick him up, he most yearns for one day to charge and kill the enemy. Now it is impossible for this old arm and leg to kill the enemy, but it is still possible to cheer for the governor..."

Along the way, I saw the speed of the warship, and Quan Wanji wanted to see the power of this new warship.

Seeing Quan Wanji's excited look surprised Yang Fan, she didn't expect that this old man was still a passionate guy.

Yang Fan was unwilling to take risks from these literati such as Wanji.

After all, there is no eyebrow in the sword, who dares to say that he will win on the battlefield?

If this old man has a good man, he will have a good helper.

Although this old man has a stubborn and tough temper, his personality is the favorite among superiors, especially in the officialdom.
