Chapter 192 Buying Horse Bones (1st Update)

To be forgotten is the real original sin. Therefore, Chen Ying is afraid of being forgotten.

With him out of his own pocket, the Western Regions has developed rapidly in just two or three years. Yang Rong was the first merchant to arrive in the Western Regions, and Yang Rong now bought a million acres of cotton fields and became a famous landlord in the Western Regions.

Yang Rong also bought a colorful stone mountain under the burning mountain, this barren mountain is located in a desolate and water-deficient Gobi Desert, at the foot of this stone mountain named Caiyun Mountain by Yang Rong, Yang Rong is ready to build Caiyun Fort.

Chen Ying actually didn't want Yang Rong to build a castle in this Caiyun Mountain, because there was a shortage of water here, it was so hot in summer, and it was so cold that it could freeze and crack the stones in winter, this was a forbidden area for life, as his own person, Chen Ying didn't want Yang Rong to suffer. However, Yang Rong liked this place very much. Yang Rong wanted to buy nearly 100,000 acres of barren mountains near Caiyun Mountain in one go, and Chen Ying opened his mouth in order to dispel Yang Rong's plan to buy Caiyun Mountain, asking for 100,000 yuan.

You must know that at this time, the good land in Guanzhong is only seven or eight yuan, and the inferior land that can be planted with coarse grains is only two or three yuan, and as for the wasteland, it is about the same as the price of cabbage, about one or two yuan. Chen Ying sold 100,000 acres of barren mountains and Gobi Desert at almost the price of inferior land in Guanzhong.

From any point of view, it's like a big deal. But Chen Ying didn't expect that Yang Rong didn't hesitate at all, and agreed in one breath.

Chen Ying hesitated at this time, there must be demons when things go wrong.

Although Yang Rong didn't spend 100,000 yuan, she couldn't grow crops when she bought such a piece, and even the most drought-tolerant camel thorns in the desert couldn't survive, Chen Ying really couldn't think of what Yang Rong wanted to do in such a place.

After Chen Ying sent Yang Rong away, he called Zhou Qing and said, "You immediately take a group of people to the Huojiao Mountain Mountain to see what is in this so-called Caiyun Mountain!" ”

Chen Ying faintly felt that something was wrong, Yang Rong was not a fool, with what she did, she could be called extremely shrewd, she couldn't spend money in vain to buy such a useless barren mountain.

Although Chen Ying knows that the interests in the world cannot be eaten by one person, even the emperor cannot eat all the benefits, at this time, he must understand that it is sharing. Chen Ying is a person who knows how to share benefits, he first distributed the benefits of steel to Li Yuan, and then to the king of Taiyuan, and for Luo Shixin's marriage, there was a large wave of interests.

Although it seems to be a very stupid act, eating alone will be hated by others, and if a person has no friends, then he is not far from death.

It's ridiculous to say, but it's actually true. The emperor of the Song Dynasty knew how to share the world with the scholars, and there was the Song Dynasty, the world was basically as stable as a mountain, and the scholars were willing to share the benefits with the people, so the Song Dynasty basically did not break out large-scale peasant uprisings.

Even if the country is ruined and the Mongols invade. 300,000 soldiers and civilians, in the battle of Yashan, jumped into the battle, and died for the country, which can also be said to be unprecedented in history on such a scale.

The fruit tree in the Western Regions, under Chen Ying's hard watering, gradually ripened. Chen Ying is not afraid of being picked fruits, no matter how many fruits are picked, the fruit trees are still Chen Ying's, and he shares the benefits with the Tang Xungui and the clan gate lords and the people of Pingbai, so that Chen Ying will be safer and more solid.

Now that Yang Rong is willing to develop and operate the Western Regions, this is something that Chen Yingying can't ask for.

From Chen Ying's own management of the Western Regions, to now there are people who are willing to run the Western Regions, this is the essential difference, and it is also a big step forward in Chen Ying's plan.

Chen Ying sat in front of the bookcase, and Li Daozhen at this time secretly changed into a Tsing Yi Luo skirt, which was the dress of an ordinary maid in Liang Guogong's mansion.

Li Daozhen pretended to be a maid and walked to Chen Ying's study with steaming tea.

At this time, Chen Ying was in a daze. Ashina Simo was about to remind Chen Ying, Li Daozhen waved his hand to signal Ashina Simo to withdraw, and stood respectfully on the side and waited.

A candle burned to the end, and the candle flame began to flicker, Chen Ying got up to change the candle, and found that Li Daozhen, who had been standing aside.

Li Daozhen respectfully looked at Chen Yingyi.

Chen Ying hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it, and invited Li Daozhen to sit down by the way: "Don't be so polite, I can't stand it." ”

The corners of Li Daozhen's mouth twitched, and she sat aside in embarrassment.

Chen Ying held his hands, looked at Li Daozhen and said, "What are you making a fuss about?" ”

Because of Li Daozhen's lesson to Li Siye, she was taught a lesson by Chen Ying. In terms of skill, she is not weaker than Chen Ying, but in the battle on the bed, she really lost her armor and collapsed. In her repeated begging for mercy, Chen Ying used a uniform to tempt her to force her to sign the alliance under the city.

Li Daozhen muttered: "Presumably Chen Lang also knows that I have a knot in my heart and can't let go."

Chen Ying waved his hand and said: "That's just a joke and can't be true, if you are offended, please Haihan."

Li Daozhen smiled bitterly, shook his head lightly and said, "I am an ominous body......"

Chen Ying was so excited that he stood up, reached out to wrap his hand around Li Daozhen's shoulder, and reached out to cover her mouth: "Don't say it again!" ”

At this moment, there was a coughing sound outside the study.

Chen Ying and Li Daozhen jumped up like frightened rabbits, Chen Ying looked at the voice, and saw Li Xiuning smiling outside the door: "It seems that I really didn't come at the right time......

……

The desolate area that Yang Rong wants to buy. Located on the south side of the Karamaili Mountains, it is a magical place, with an area of about six or seven square kilometers, in the shape of an oval; The topography here is unique, scattered, the wind and rain erosion into the large and small mountain shapes, the longitudinal and horizontal streets that resemble many ancient castles from a distance, the soil layer of the hill section presents various colors such as blue, blue, red, yellow, white, purple, black, etc., gorgeous and colorful, bright and dazzling.

After the investigation of geological experts, far away 80 million years ago, here was a vast and endless lake, the lake precipitated minerals of various colors, and then due to the rise of the earth's crust, formed a variety of rocks, red iron sandstone, gray marl, black argillaceous rock, exposed rock, after tens of millions of years of water erosion and wind erosion, hard remained, soft washed away. Nature's magic has created this colorful and strange landscape for human beings.

Zhou Qing led a team of elite exploration team members, looked at a large and small piece of gravel, and said with a puzzled face: "There is not even a ghost shadow here, what can be worth noting?" ”

A very experienced exploration craftsman smiled bitterly: "Zhou Tongjun, don't you know that in this place in the Western Regions, no matter how desolate it is, maybe there will be gold mines below!" ”

Zhou Qing kicked up a reddish-brown stone and smiled disapprerovingly: "Is there a gold mine here?" With that, I'll eat it! ”

The stone kicked up a large cloud of dust and smoke, and the smoke flew into the mouth of a member of the exploration team.

"Ah...... Phew...... "The hapless explorer spat out the dust that had been thrown into his mouth, but his face had changed, his eyes were round, and his mouth was wide enough to fit a duck's egg.

Zhou Qing knew that he had made a mistake, so he picked up a water bladder and handed it to the exploration team member: "I'm sorry, rinse your mouth!" ”

However, the member of the exploration team did not take the water bladder at all, but lowered his head and grabbed a handful of dust, and slowly blew it up with his mouth, waiting for the fine sand in his hand to blow clean, revealing some reddish-brown crystals in his palm.

The old member of the exploration team showed a look of sudden realization and said, "I understand, I understand!" ”

Zhou Qing said suspiciously: "What do you understand?" ”

The old exploration team members smiled and pointed to a large depression at the foot of Caiyun Mountain and said with a smile: "If nothing else, a long time ago, there was water here, it was probably a saltwater lake, and now the lake water has been dried up, leaving a small salt mine!" ”

Zhou Qing said in disbelief: "How is this possible? ”

The old exploration team members pointed to a few young exploration team members and said, "It's here, hurry up and dig!" ”

Several members of the exploration team picked up folding sapper shovels and quickly dug up the sand and gravel from the surface. The five or six members of the exploration team spent a full meal digging a sand pit.

A member of the exploration team said: "Zhou Tongjun, in the end!" ”

The members of the old exploration team used a chisel to get a white rock block at the bottom, and they didn't care whether it was dirty or not, they stretched out their tongues and licked it, and said while licking: "That's right, it's a salt mine, you guys will go to other places to see how big this salt mine is!" ”

……

Chen Ying was punished by Li Xiuning, and finally proved that there were only tired cattle and no ploughed fields. In the past few days, Chen Ying has been boiled into dark circles, and Chen Ying is painful and happy at this time.

looked at the exploration report brought by Zhou Qing in front of him.

Chen Ying finally remembered this place, which was a famous scenic spot in later generations. The famous movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was also filmed here, where there is not only a small salt mine, but also a large oil field, but with the current technology, I am afraid there is no way to mine it.

Chen Ying also knew that not far from that place, there was an agate mountain, it must be that Yang Rong did not find it, a few years later, due to the earthquake, one of the red mountain bags was cracked into a huge gap, and finally this agate mountain appeared.

Li Xiuning curiously picked up the exploration team's survey report, only to see that it was written that the salt mine was expected to be no less than 10 million stones.

Li Xiuning said: "Yang Rong is quite cunning! ”

Chen Ying nodded and said, "That's a piece of heaven-blessed land!" ”

Li Xiuning thought for a while and said, "Let's keep this land!" ”

"No......" Chen Ying shook his head resolutely and said, "It's better to sell it to her!" ”

Saying that, Chen Ying looked at Zhou Qing and said, "Inform Mrs. Yang and let her come over to sign the contract!" ”

Li Xiuning was very angry at the beginning, but after thinking about it, he finally understood Chen Ying's intentions. She tried to ask, "Are you buying horse bones?" ”

Chen Ying nodded and said, "Not bad!" ”
