Haojing, Shen Family Camp.
Many Shen Family members were digging the foundation of a building.
"Eh? Is this gold?"
"Dig it out and see!"
"What the hell are you digging? Such a big piece!"
Everyone worked together to dig away the soil covering the gold nugget, revealing the full picture of the gold nugget.
It was about four feet long, three feet wide, and about one or two feet thick.
It was estimated to be at least one or two hundred kilograms.
However, the shape was not regular, and it was not the kind of pure gold after refining, but gold ore!
Everyone realized that this might be a gold mine!
"Don't just stand there! Keep digging! See if you can find other gold ores!"
Now, there was a hundred responses.
In half a day, the gold ores dug out by the Shen Family members, large and small, were piled together to form a small mountain of about two feet.
Some people even said helplessly: "Why do we have to dig out so much gold ore? Isn't it for the court?"
"Are you stupid? The court will definitely give us some of it if we dig it out on our Shen family's territory."
"Yes, then should we continue digging?"
Many people began to shake their heads.
The area around here has been dug into pits and pits, and it is completely in a mess, but there are probably more gold mines, and it will take a while to dig them all out.
Besides, mining is the job of the Ministry of Works of the court.
After Shen Yugong learned about it, he immediately reported it to the cabinet.
Hai Duan has taken leave to recuperate, and Zhao Liang is in charge of the cabinet.
Hearing this, he was also very surprised and puzzled.
"In this day and age, there are actually gold mines around Haojing?"
"Oh... I remember that in the early days of Emperor Wanshou's reign, the scale of Haojing City continued to expand. That place was originally a remote and poor place, and no one cared about it. Moreover, this time it was dug out by the children of the Shen family when they were digging the foundation, which was considered an unexpected gain."
"Let the court mine it as soon as possible."
Gold and silver are currencies recognized by the court in any year.
In the past, some people tried to use some magic tools and stones as currency, but it was really difficult to measure the value. In the end, they still used common currencies such as gold, silver, and copper coins as the standard of measurement.
After all, these things are very real.
They can only be circulated and will not be consumed.
With one more gold mine, the court's gold reserves can be increased, which is beneficial to the court's finances.
After the Ministry of Industry officially took over, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory conducted an exploration and found that the area north of the Shen family camp was almost all gold mines underground!
This scale is terrifying!
Minister of Works Zhu Hui immediately reported to the cabinet.
"Zhao Cifu, since it is such a large gold mine, I suggest that the children of the Shen family stop building the Shen family and devote all their efforts to exploring the gold mine."
"After all the gold ore is excavated and the gold is refined, they can be rewarded."
"Best of both worlds!"
Zhao Liang also thought it was possible.
After all, the Shen family is still in the planning stage and needs a large amount of money to invest, and they are not self-sufficient for the time being.
Doing so can also save the court a sum of money, so why not do it?
So, all the disciples of the Shen family became miners.
When Shen Zhaoyang saw this scene, he was stunned and looked at his biological father Shen Yugong infatuatedly.
"Dad, let me ask you, why does His Majesty want to build the Shen family?"
Shen Yugong said: "To suppress the martial arts world, so that the major sects will not grow stronger, and then there will be a situation where everything is treated as straw dogs."
"Yes, then what should we do?"
"Let the children of the Shen family become stronger than those disciples of the sects."
"Yes, but why let them mine? Instead of practicing? Instead of practicing martial arts? All the people in the Ministry of Industry are dead, right!"
Shen Zhaoyang's tail tone is close to a roar.
Shen Yugong frowned slightly.
"Zhaoyang, these two things are not contradictory. The Shen family needs a lot of money during the construction period, and digging gold mines is also conducive to the construction."
"Moreover, the price offered by the Ministry of Industry can make many poor children of the Shen family rich."
"In the future, with the family's supply, they can buy more cultivation resources for cultivation. Don't you understand this principle?"
Shen Zhaoyang wanted to refute.
But at this time, the children of the Shen family not far away also began to mock.
"Young Patriarch, what the Patriarch said is right. We are not you, and we can't break through the realm like a river."
"In addition to practicing diligently, we also need cultivation resources."
"Don't stand here and talk without any pain. We should be more realistic in life."
Shen Yugong also said at this time: "In life, we should not only be pragmatic, but also be humble."
Shen Zhaoyang couldn't help cursing and said: "Fuck being humble, I only know that everyone has his own job! Those who should practice martial arts don't practice martial arts, and those who should mine don'tGoing to mine, it's really ridiculous!"
"If you have the ability, just submit a memorial to the cabinet and see the result of the cabinet's discussion!" Shen Yugong said unhappily.
"I won't talk to you about those useless things!"
Shen Zhaoyang walked away directly, hoping to get out of sight and out of mind.
He also submitted a memorial to the cabinet.
Now the whole of Gaojing knows that letting the children of the Shen family dig gold mines is the result of the cabinet's discussion.
After leaving the Shen family camp, Shen Zhaoyang still felt bored.
I bought half a catty of wine in the city, and wanted to find a quiet place to continue studying the Qiyuan Heart Method.
Just then, in a roast duck shop next to it, I saw Hai Duan and a girl.
"Shopkeeper, I don't have enough money on me, can you sell me half a duck? ”
Hai Duan was short of money, and his daughter was drooling beside him.
The shopkeeper said with embarrassment: "Sir, if you only buy half a duck, the other half will be hard to sell. How about buying two duck legs to try first?"
"That's fine, that's fine!"
Hai Duan smiled and was about to pay, but Shen Zhaoyang stepped forward and slapped ten coins: "Give this gentleman a whole duck!"
"Okay!"
Seeing this, Hai Duan laughed: "You came just in time, come back with me later, and I'll return the money to you."
"That's just how much money, Prime Minister, don't be polite to me." Shen Zhaoyang said respectfully.
The roast duck shopkeeper exclaimed when he heard this: "You...you are Prime Minister Hai Duan?"
"Yes."
Hai Duan smiled and nodded.
"Oh, if I had known it was you, I would have given it to you for free!"
"It's not appropriate, it's not easy for you to run a small business. "
Although he is well-known, he does not often show up in public.
Now he is walking on the street, wearing a patched gown, his face is a little pale, and his figure is even thinner. He really can't be seen as the prime minister of the dynasty!
It's even more unexpected that he can't even afford to buy a whole roast duck.
It's not that Hai Duan doesn't have the money, but he didn't bring enough money to go out.
"Zhaoyang, you look a little depressed. Drinking alone may be a little boring. Why don't you go to my house for a simple meal?"
"Okay, I'll buy some rice wine so that the prime minister can drink it, and it will also help him recover from his illness!"
"Then let's go."
"Okay!"
