Datang Live Room

"You don't want to monopolize this gold mine, do you?" Chu Suiliang looked at Yan Kai and said.

"Hey, am I such a greedy person?" Yan Kai shook his head and said, "You also saw my prospecting skills today, right?"

Chu Suiliang nodded, and then asked doubtfully: "Are you a gold miner?"

In ancient times, everyone was familiar with the Outer Eight Gates.

And prospecting is called the ninth gate: the gold mining gate.

Gold mining is divided into four veins: dividing water to deposit gold, observing mountains to find veins, diving into abyss to seize gold, and panning for gold in the clouds.

This is actually the exploration of gold deposits of different properties.

There are placer gold and rock gold.

This Wenshan Mountain is a rock gold mine.

However, according to Chu Suiliang's understanding, the rock ore is determined by the parents, the placer gold is determined by the day after tomorrow, the starting point is determined by the starting point and the mountain, and the direction of the ore is determined by the star.

Yan Kai walked on the mountain for a few days and settled on the golden point.

He also knew the direction of the mine belt, which really made him confused.

"Hey, don't worry about how I know this."

Yan Kai knows nothing about gold mining. When he goes into the mountains, with his knowledge as an outdoor anchor, he can tell which way is south without a compass at most.

As for prospecting, I don’t have the ability.

"There is a saying that it doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat!" Yan Kai hugged Chu Suiliang and said, "How about you help me go back and discuss it with His Majesty."

"Discuss...discuss..." To be honest, there are not many people who can discuss with His Majesty.

"Yes, you see I discovered this place, right? I can also mark out the mineral veins here. How the court will dig out the gold mines is up to you."

"But give me a piece and I'll dig it myself, how about that?"

After understanding the reserves of this mineral vein, Yan Kai knew that neither he nor Datang could actually dig out the entire mine.

He cannot develop without money, or a channel for making money.

He now has a lot of money in the live broadcast room. If he wants to withdraw cash, he can be described as rich as the enemy.

But it has to be taken out directly, and it is difficult to explain.

With this gold mine it's different.

No matter how much money he takes out in the future, Li Shimin will only think that he dug it in a gold mine.

And never thought that he lost the cheat code: showmethemoney!

"Give...you a piece, and you can dig it yourself?" Chu Suiliang sweated profusely!

Who dares to make such a request? Isn't it the king's land in the world? If you look at the civil and military forces of the entire dynasty, including a ruffian like Cheng Zhijie, would he dare to make such a request to His Majesty?

Only Yan Kai dared to discuss this.

Seeing Chu Suiliang's appearance, Yan Kai gritted his teeth and added some chips.

"How about I help the court find some mineral veins in the future?"

"Gold mine?" Chu Suiliang asked.

He didn't doubt whether Yan Kai would be able to find it. He felt that Yan Kai either knew the skill of gold mining, or someone told him about it.

"Um...how about iron ore and coal mines?"

Chu Suiliang pursed his lips: "Can these iron mines and coal mines be compared with gold mines?"

Yan Kai looked at him contemptuously: "Don't you understand? With iron ore and coal mines, can we build weapons and equipment? With weapons and equipment, whose gold mine is not ours?"

"How...can it still be like this?" After all, Chu Suiliang received Confucian education.

Yan Kai's theory, which was similar to that of a bandit, was something he had never thought about from this perspective.

And what Yan Kai thinks about is: If my neighbor collects grain, I will collect guns, and my neighbor is my granary!

If there is no silver mine, go to Fuso next door to get some.

If there are no iron ore or coal mines, just go to Tu'ao.

If you don’t have kimchi, just...forget it, I’d better make it myself, since I buy it from myself.

As long as Datang is strong enough, what else do you want?

"Hey, think about it!" Yan Kai pointed to the north: "Think about what the Turks did to us?"

"They are going to be short of food in the winter, so they come to us to snatch people and food."

"Not only the Turks, but also Gaochang, Xueyantuo, Goryeo, Silla, Baekje, Fusang, who do you think has not had this idea for us?"

"They can do it, but we can't?"

Chu Suiliang thought for a while, and it seemed to make sense, but he still said hesitantly: "This..."

"I know, I know!" Yan Kai continued: "You think we can't act like bandits like the Turks, don't you?"

Chu Suiliang nodded. This was a common problem among ancient Chinese literati.

To put it mildly, one could say that they have high moral standards.

But to put it bluntly, it is a bit self-inflicted and too pedantic.

Yan Kai actually has his own moral standards, but his moral standards are only for his own people.

There is really not much need for fuso and sticks.

"I don't mean that we should rob them. What we want is to convince others with virtue!"

Yan Kai bit the word "de" very hard.

Chu Suiliang didn't know this, but Yan Kai knew that Li Shimin must know it.

What is virtue? Just out of this place, a two-meter-old Shandong man with three thousand subordinates, convincing people everywhere, just relying on virtue?

If he had only virtue, I might not even be able to leave Shandong.

If the Tang Dynasty had millions of soldiers and everyone was well-equipped, then in the face of the surrounding countries, whatever virtue the Tang Dynasty said was virtue.

Yan Kai knows better than anyone else in this era that weak countries have no diplomacy.

Chu Suiliang was a little dizzy after all this deception.

In other words, Yan Kai wanted his own independent mining rights in this gold mine, and could even trade iron ore and coal mines with His Majesty.

He wasn't sure whether this would work out.

Because no one has done that.

But based on His Majesty's attitude towards this boy Yan Kai, it seems that there is some possibility.

Chu Suiliang thought for a while and said, "Then I will return to Chang'an immediately and report this matter to Your Majesty."

"But here..." Chu Suiliang looked at the big pit over there.

"Don't worry, I won't dig secretly until you come back with the news." Yan Kai patted his chest and promised: "I will ask people to build the mine first, half of you and half of me. If His Majesty doesn't allow it, I will give you my half." For you guys!"

Chu Suiliang glanced at Yan Kai suspiciously, is this guy so generous?

Or is he sure that His Majesty will agree?

"Okay, then I'll leave now."

Chu Suiliang did not dare to delay such an important matter, so he asked Yan Kai to send him a few guards, and then hurried to Chang'an.

"Okay, then you go to Chang'an first. I have something else to say, and you can help me bring it to His Majesty."

Yan Kai asked Chun Yuzhen and Cheng Hualiang to send people to guard this place.

They also asked people to go to Kuoding County to invite Master Lao Deng. He is a master in the field of civil engineering, and this mine construction site cannot do without him.

Of course, he couldn't return to Kuoding County for the time being, so he took his family on a sightseeing tour in Wendeng County.

As for the classmate Zhong Zhen who discovered the gold mine, Yan Kai directly gave him the lump of gold he dug out of the gold mine that day.
