The cardinal couldn't help but speak: "Strange, most of the wild beasts gather near food and water sources, what's so good about this stone mountain, if you want water or not, if you want food without food, hey, look, the wild goat is not hungry and faint, and wants to gnaw stones?" ”

"So this is a treasure of feng shui" Tang Cheng said a little proudly: "The little one also accidentally discovered that there are often prey here, and almost every time he comes, there is a harvest, and ordinary people don't tell him, hey, general, what are you looking at...."

I wanted to ask Zheng Peng when he would make a move, but when he turned his head to look, he saw Zheng Peng taking out a precious telescope and looking at it.

The cardinal raised his eyes, and his pretty face suddenly became a little red, and he whispered, "Indecent." ”

Cardinal, who has good eyesight, raised his eyes and saw that there was a goat on the opposite stone mountain with his front two feet lying behind the other goat, and he was pumping and pumping, obviously mating, which was nothing, but Zheng Peng looked at these with a telescope, and felt that Zheng Peng was a little shameless.

Both sheep mating are watched through binoculars, so they won't be bored to this extent.

When Zheng Peng heard the cardinal's words, his old face twitched, and he quickly said casually: "Yes, it is indeed a treasure land of feng shui." ”

"Yes, Feng Shui treasure," the cardinal sarcastically said, "you can satisfy some people's bad habits here." ”

If it weren't for the fact that there was no one around, Zheng Peng really wanted to drive away this cardinal, which could choke people to death at every turn, and he endured it before, and it was endless, right?

"Bad habits?" Zheng Peng deliberately said loudly: "Cardinal girl, I want to get rich, this is also a bad habit?" ”

"If you look at that kind of thing, you can also make a fortune, uncle, are you going to sell tickets for your subordinates to visit?"

Zheng Peng said a little speechlessly: "What a person thinks in his heart, his thoughts will affect what he sees, in the eyes of the cardinal girl, it is an obscene thing, but in the eyes of the general, it is a golden mountain." ”

"Jinshan? Isn't it a stone mountain on the other side? Cardinal couldn't help but retort.

This uncle, martial arts are scarce, but his brain is flexible, and he doesn't have to spit out dirty words when he hurts people, what does that mean, sarcastic about his dirty heart?

Zheng Peng didn't bother to pay attention, waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go to the other side and have a look." ”

Tang Cheng said nervously: "General, just use a bow and arrow here, the range is enough, if you get close, you will scare them away, these beasts are very clever." ”

"Don't be verbose, just follow." Zheng Peng didn't bother to explain, and took the lead in moving forward.

Zheng Peng soon came to the stone mountain, to the surprise of the cardinal, he turned a blind eye to those prey Zheng Peng, let them escape, but squatted down, looked at the stones carefully, and stroked them with his hands from time to time, and the cardinal caught a flash of light in Zheng Peng's eyes.

What's wrong with my uncle, is it possible, this mountain really has a golden vein?

Just when the cardinal was thinking about it, only to hear the sound of "swish", Zheng Peng suddenly pulled out a horizontal knife, and without saying a word, he slashed at the stone in front of him.

"General, are you alright?" Tang Cheng was startled, pulled out a horizontal knife with his backhand, and looked around vigilantly, for fear that someone would be unfavorable to Zheng Peng.

As soon as he launched his whole body, he only heard a "swish" sound, and the escort team all drew their weapons and subconsciously surrounded Zheng Peng in the middle, even the cardinal was also the first to block Zheng Peng's side, acting as Zheng Peng's meat shield with his flesh and blood.

Zheng Peng was shocked by the scene in front of him, paused for a moment, and quickly said with a smile: "Relax, put away your weapons, it's okay, I just want to chop stones and have fun." ”

The cardinal just wanted to say a few words to Zheng Peng, but he didn't expect that after Zheng Peng put away the horizontal knife, he picked up a small stone and put it to his mouth, and licked it with his tongue.

It's broken, isn't my aunt's brain broken?

Seeing Zheng Peng licking his tongue, Tang Cheng looked surprised, opened his mouth to say something but couldn't say anything, and finally said with a hesitant face: "General, you, are you okay?" ”

It can't be that this is close to the cursed land, and General Zheng has been cursed.

Zheng Peng suddenly laughed and patted Tang Cheng's shoulder hard: "Tang Cheng, you have made a great contribution, you have made a fortune, you have made a fortune." ”

Tang Cheng's old face twitched, and he said a little resignedly: "The general's words are serious, isn't it just a few prey, it can't be regarded as military merit at all, and you can't make a fortune besides." ”

Zheng Peng laughed, pointed to the freshly split gravel on the ground and said, "Tang Cheng, you lick these stones and see what's special." ”

"Obey" Tang Cheng had some doubts in his heart, but he still followed Zheng Peng's meaning, took a small stone and put it in his mouth and licked it gently.

"Huh, this is, salty?" Tang Cheng said with a look of surprise.

"It's salty."

"Strange, why salty?"

"It feels like salt for stir-frying."

The guards were curious and tried one after another, but the cardinal couldn't help but taste it, and found that it was really salty, and asked in surprise, "Uncle, what's going on?" How do stones smell like salt? ”

In later generations, it is estimated that primary school students know that it is too common for them to be unclear in the Tang Dynasty, where the level of science and technology is not high, the news is closed, and the knowledge is very low, Zheng Peng is in a good mood and opens his mouth to give them illiteracy: "We have to eat salt every day, and many people know that salt is obtained from boiling in the sea or lake, which is what we call sea salt and lake salt, in fact, in addition to sea salt and lake salt, there are also well salt dug out of brine wells, soil salt dug out of the soil, and of course, mineral salt like Stone Mountain." ”

"Uncle, there are also mines for salt?"

"The world is full of wonders, what is so strange about salt mineralization, if I guess correctly, this stone mountain is a mineral salt, or a high-quality mineral salt, which may reach the quality of Jiangxue." Zheng Peng said confidently.

Different varieties of salt, the quality is also different, from the color can be roughly divided into snow, peach, green, purple, white, etc., among which the snow has the best quality and the highest price.

Tang Cheng said with a look of convincing: "In addition to gold, silver and grain, salt is a good thing, especially in the Western Regions, you must know that the price of salt here is more than double that of the Central Plains, the reason is that the Western Regions do not produce salt, or produce some black salt of very poor quality and difficult to swallow, even if it is expensive, those black-hearted traders still mix things into it, general, if you can mine the snow salt here, it will be difficult to make a fortune, Jinshan, this is definitely a golden mountain, the general is really a clever calculation, as soon as you come, you will know that there is a salt mine here." ”

A noble man is a noble man, Tang Cheng has come here to hunt many times, every time he leaves after hunting, he never thought about why there is prey here, let alone licking the stones everywhere, even if he breaks into Baoshan, he returns empty-handed.

Zheng Peng stepped on a stone and asked, "Where, when I saw those goats licking the stones, I was curious, just give it a try, Tang Cheng, is this a big Tang Dynasty or a little Bolu?" ”

I have read a report before, many goats run to the cliff to lick the stone, it looks thrilling, and later scientists found that the stone of the cliff contains salt, and the sheep licking the stone is to replenish the salt needed by the body, this scene in front of him is very familiar, Zheng Peng quickly guessed that the feng shui treasure land that Tang Cheng said was actually a mineral salt.

You guessed it.

"Coincidentally, this place is located in the territory of Datang, and it is difficult for Xiao Bolu to get a piece of the pie, but even if it is in the territory of Xiao Bolu, it is not its turn to speak, and the general can afford to mine it." Tang Cheng said with a relaxed face.

Xiao Bolu said that it is a country, but in fact, its military strength is very poor, and the four major military towns in the Western Regions can easily crush it by drawing any military town.

Zheng Peng calculated: "The camp is within a radius of fifty miles, all of which belong to the forbidden area, I have the final say in the forbidden area, it is only about thirty miles away from the camp, come on, the boiled duck can't fly, hahaha." ”
