As soon as he entered the door, a little white dog barked at him with hostility and not very firmness, and tried to block him, but was a little frightened, and turned back to ask for help while barking. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

A girl got up early, heard the sound and ran out to ask the governor to come in.

Mrs. Cui has gotten up, Tian Tian has not woken up, Gao Jun has seen the courtesy, and asked Mrs. Cui about her diet and daily life.

Cui Shi said, "Don't ask me, but you, how many days has the robe not been washed?" How many days has it been since you shaved your beard? I really want Yuru and Yan'er to come back and watch the joke. ”

Gao Jun was happy, and when he talked about the affairs in the four villages of the ranch, Cui said, "The governor is here to invite me, so I naturally have to go." But those silkworm things, warm soup, hotels, and paintings, etc., I am not as good as Lirong and Wanqing, Su Yin and Deng Yulong, and I can only barely support them for a while. ”

Gao Jun said, that's exactly what I mean, I have Mrs. Lao.

As a result, people found that Mrs. Cui, the middle and elder generation of Gaofu, and Miss Tian Tian, the younger generation, appeared in the ranch village together.

They held hands and went to the silkworm room in the old village, straightened out the two classes of village women who were a little loose because of the second sister-in-law's trouble, and asked them to go to work on time, and sort out and send out the silk threads that should be sent to the weaving field in time.

Mrs. Cui is kind and generous, and can talk to every village woman. She can quickly call out the name of each village woman, can quickly understand the procedures of the silkworm house, and can get started in person, no less than people who have been working for a long time.

They went to warm the soup, straightened out the accounts, developed the wages of the men, approved the expenses for the month, and taught Tian Tian arithmetic and the mantra of using the abacus.

They went to Gaoyu's hotels and inns, went to the silk weaving field in the evening, and when they came back, they lay down under the lamp to teach Tian Tian to draw pictures, and then sent them over together the next day.

They went to the school in the four villages again and found that the lame father's grandson had dropped out of school.

Mrs. Cui went to the silk weaving field to find Cao Da and told Cao Da that the old village was already vacant. If he could do something serious, ban gambling in the ranch village, take care of the old and young in the village, and maintain the order of the old village, she proposed to the governor of the capital that he should be the head of the old village.

Cao Da was overjoyed, of course he knew that Mrs. Cui's words at Gao Jun were effective, and at the moment, according to Mrs. Cui's wishes, he first found someone to seal the window of the school, pulled charcoal, built a heating stove, and sent the lame father's grandson to the school again.

He also erected a stake and hung a bronze bell outside the door of the school.

Every morning, as soon as the bell rings in the old village school, the children of the four villages go to their respective schools one after another. As soon as the bell rings in the evening, people go to the door of the school to wait for their children.

Cao Da served as the old village village without suspense.

Since then, he has not even gone to the casino for a single step. When Zheng Zhishan wooed him again, Cao Da glared at him and said, "Gambling is prohibited in this village, if you mess around again, be careful that I pull you to see the official!" ”

Zheng Zhishan couldn't afford to provoke Cao Da, so he no longer went to the old village to set up a gamble, but ran to the East Village, and occasionally saw Cao Da in the weaving silk field, so he deliberately said, "Today's luck is really good, silver and big money are like a strong wind blowing!" ”

Cao Da gritted his teeth and did not squeak, nor did he drill the alley like a thread. One is that I don't want to go, and the other is that I want to go at all, but I don't have much money in my pocket.

It happened that Mrs. Cui and Tian Tian were in the weaving field, and after seeing this scene, Mrs. Cui quietly said to Cao Dadao, "If you can manage the two miscellaneous things in the weaving field, you will have the courage of your eldest brother." ”

The eldest brother Xie Guangchong threw shoes at Zheng Zhishan, and became the manager of the gold mine, and of course Cao Da would do it.

He threw it more accurately than his eldest brother, and once in the silk weaving field, the two of them provoked Cao Da because of something, and Cao Da threw a shoe into Zheng Zhishan's face.

Zheng Zhishan knew at this time that Cao Da had no real relationship with the governor of Xizhou, and they were so angry that they rolled up their sleeves and wanted to get started.

But Cao shouted, four or five people ran over from the old village, and the second sister-in-law also brought four or five village women to help in the silkworm room, and the two immediately avoided wilting.

Cao Dadian pointed to Zheng Zhishan's nose and said, "In the silk weaving field, you don't have to point fingers at a single thread!" You don't know where you came from, be careful that I make your big stock less than a penny. The ranch village doesn't allow you to play tricks on money again, your way is very suspicious, be careful that I take your big shares! Don't be unconvinced, I'm Muramasa, and even if you have that big stock, you're not from Ranch Village. ”

And Qiuzi City Su Fa and Prime Minister Nali have been eyeing the Chihe Gold Mine for some days.

At first, they suspected that Chen Xiaowang was the eyes and ears sent by Gao Jun, but then Xie Guang arrived again, and they suspected Xie Guang again.

Then, on the first day of Xie Guang's tenure, he killed Chen Xiaowang and reused Hou Hai, and Su Fa suspected that this was a serial plan by Gao Jun.

"No! In my opinion, the Xizhou Lingshi family has not been exposed, who will manipulate the marriage of the spy daughter under his nose, is it still too little news? ”

"Look at the ninth lady who came to Shaya City to open warm soup, although the scene is quite big, but Xizhou has not even come forward with an official figure, only a seventh lady, but that is her sister! The news delivered by the historian said that the six wives of the Grand Governor had been running out for a long time! ”

Su Hua said, it is possible that this Ninth Lady is just an abandoned son of Gao Jun, maybe he is the one who expressed his determination to the Six Ladies. But he really has the open-mindedness to invest half of the investment in the Ninth Lady!

Nali said we can't underestimate the enemy! The more favorable the situation is for us, the more we must not take it lightly, and we have already suffered a lot of losses in this regard.

And Zheng Zhishan, who they sent to Ranch Village, was almost meaningless, and was watched by a person named Cao Da, and he was hit by the soles of his shoes when he coughed.

"King, give them the order to get back, don't be embarrassed there!" In case Gao Jun sees through their identities, it will be our handle. ”

……

The Chihe gold mine opened the furnace to melt gold as scheduled, which was the first furnace after Xie Guang took office, and he sent a letter to the governor of Xizhou in advance, with gorgeous rhetoric, and used the method of comparison to make the governor's head hurt and his teeth were sore.

Gao Jun didn't believe it and didn't plan to go.

Gao Jun knew Xie Guang since he knew him, and he knew that he was a very good-looking person, but he didn't want to make progress, so he always pretended to be a scholar. Although there is only one good gown, and there is a bare shirt inside, I always hold it.

This time, let Xie Guang go to the Chihe Gold Mine, and didn't let him bring his family, Gao Jun's original intention was to make chaos in the gold mine, and let those chickens and dogs thieves make ideas on Xie Guang's body, so that the beauty could plan something, and the matter of losing gold would come to light.

Gao Jun has been reluctant not to go to the Chihe gold mine, and Chen Xiaowang has been going to the key place on the gold mine - the gold warehouse for so long, and he has no eyebrows at all. He is not good at this, and he is also scared of the grass and snakes when he goes, so he doesn't go, and sits in Xizhou to wait for the news of the chaos in the Chihe gold mine.

Who knew that the development of things was much more than Gao Jun expected.

There was no chaos in the gold mine, Chen Xiaowang was kicked by Xie Guang and went to the gold furnace to work as a coolie, and when he went out of the gate the evening before the furnace was opened, Chen Xiaowang let the gatekeeper shake out a golden broad bean in his clothes.

Xie Guangtie was selfless, and he pressed Chen Xiaowang on the high stool at the door in public and beat him with twenty leather whips, and when he got up, Chen Xiaowang couldn't even kick his pants.

Hou Hai, the new scattered gold warehouse Shi appointed by Xie Guang personally, pulled his cousin over from Baicheng, Xie Guang didn't even raise his eyelids, and Hou Hai's family didn't go anymore.

Xie Guang went to soak in the pool and talked about this matter. These situations were all passed back by the "buddies" he sent on the warm soup pool.

Lilan let Chen Guojun go on the pond in Hou Wei Village, and Gao Jun also knew.

Sun Ganglin caught Chen Guojun for the second time that night, and let him escape on the way to Xizhou, before passing through the Lüguang Pavilion. Gao Jun didn't blame them when he found out.

In November, the gold mine opened two furnaces, two furnaces each time, and a total of 60 catties of gold were obtained. But seventy-five pounds of loose gold were put into the furnace. Fifteen pounds of gold were missing.

When the furnace was opened, Master Gao had not arrived, but Xie Guang was present in person, and he stared at the furnace servant with good eyes pouring three specifications of golden sand into the crucible, and then adding fire.

He didn't leave until the gold water in the pot was boiling, and he didn't find anything abnormal.

When the gold nuggets were cast, an elderly furnace servant explained to Lord Xie, who was standing far away for fear of being burned: The tiniest golden sands were always mixed with some low-color golden sands, and saltpeter added to purify the gold liquid, which would melt away the miscellaneous gold fused with copper, and after melting, it would be peeled off with the ballast.

Xie Guang pretended to wake up like a dream and kept nodding his head. But the heart says that real gold is not afraid of fire, and gold is not a river clam, the more it is cooked, the more it shrinks, how are you bluffing me! Besides, fifteen catties of sand and fifteen catties of gold, how can you not see it.

In the evening, Xie Guang went to Hou Wei Village, first took two golden broad beans, soaked in the pool on the warm soup of Lilan, and then carried the dim sum and pig's head meat bought out of his own pocket, and took advantage of the dead of night and no one on the street to enter Chen Xiaowang's house.

Chen Xiaowang lay on the bed and ignored Xie Guang. Xie Guang put down his things and said, "You are the person sent by my brother-in-law, I don't believe that you will come out with golden beans." ”

Chen Xiaowang said, "If you don't believe me, you still beat me, and it is clear that you have a personal vendetta." If I hadn't injured you on the buttocks, I would have rushed back to Xizhou to complain to Lord Gao. ”

Xie Guang carried his face and said, "Can't you see that I am using a bitter trick?" Say, I guess someone planted the golden beans to dirty you, and you must have seen their bottom on the stove. ”

Chen Xiaowang was skeptical, and said without thinking, "How can I believe you, your second wife's family is all spies in Qiuci City, and my words today will be transmitted to Qiuci City tomorrow!" ”

This Xie Guang didn't know. He said, the eldest husband has something to do and something not to do, besides, she is just a concubine, how can it be as important as my sister Xie Jinlian. If she is a spy, the official will definitely pull her to her brother-in-law, and you only say what is the name on the stove.

Chen Xiaowang said, I didn't see anything, but there were two people on the stove, one old and one young, who clearly didn't want me to get close to the cement they were pounding...... And the younger one, I suspect that he planted me.

Xie Guang rolled his eyes and said to Chen Xiaowang, you will go back to the furnace tomorrow, it is estimated that it is time to mend the bottom of the furnace, you will scold me when you go, you can scold me as much as you want, let them believe that you and I will not share the sky, and they can't wait to kill me to relieve their hatred.

Chen Xiaowang said, "Master Xie, how can I scold you?" If you scold shallowly, I'm afraid that people won't believe it...... Is it okay for me to scold your concubine? It's a spy anyway. ”

Xie Guang said, "I'm your concubine!" Scold it. ”

The next day, Chen Xiaowang limped to the stove, and the two stoves that had just been used were repairing the bottom of the pot, which was a delicate job, and sure enough, the old and the young were still repairing.

Chen Xiaowang was instructed by them to dig at the bottom of the cliff, but Chen Xiaowang didn't go, "The official surnamed Xie avenges his personal revenge and occupies my Xizhou real estate, just say it!" He also wants me to work on the stove for the rest of my life, and I don't do anything! I'm his concubine! ”

As he spoke, he picked up an iron strip and smashed it twice on the bottom of the crucible that was fastened to the ground for repair. The freshly repaired bottom of the pot allowed him to knock off a large piece of mastic.

He didn't seem to be relieved, and stepped forward to step on it, but there was nothing expected in the mud.

But Xie Guang once told him that in addition to the miners who went out of the gold mines, there were also these waste cements. Gold will not be hidden, so how can there be less.

The old servant who repaired the furnace smiled, walked over and squatted down beside Chen Xiaowang, and looked at him with a smile.

After a while, he whispered, "Since Master Xie let you work on the stove for the rest of your life, then we won't be able to get rid of you...... There is a long-term deal that you do or not. As long as you are willing to do it, you will earn no less than Lord Xie! ”

Chen Xiaowang said, I'll do it! If I can't be promoted, I have to earn back the money from my ancestral house in Xizhou.

The old furnace servant said that it would be impossible to carry it out from the gate of the gold mine, and it could only be taken by water. But you've seen the waterways, and the fish can't swim through.

Chen Xiaowang said, let's do it.

The old miner said, it stands to reason that I shouldn't trust you so quickly, but you are in the way, losing your position, being humiliated, and being made up, which makes me look pitiful.

Chen Xiaowang said, "The surname Xie is a bad official, and he openly uses golden beans to curry favor with Mrs. Jiu, I asked him to find out one and beat me like this, I will be his concubine!" ”

The old miners said that the only thing that could fly out of the gold mine in broad daylight was these waste mastices. When we repaired the furnace, we wrapped the golden broad beans in the cement, waited in the stove and burned them, and threw them directly into the Chihe River when the furnace was repaired.

Chen Xiaowang said, that doesn't sink to the bottom!

The young man said, "You are a layman, lime is added to the clay, and when it is not burned, it bubbles inside." After adding it to the furnace and burning, the water will not sink and will rush downstream. The cement on the bottom of the crucible must not be entrained and will burn. ”

"But where do the golden beans come from, there are numbers, how many are out of the warehouse, and they have to be weighed before they are put into the furnace."

"The night before the furnace was opened, the loose gold warehouse had to prepare three specifications of golden sand, send it to the stove, lock it and keep it for safekeeping, for fear of being in a hurry and making mistakes in the hurry. But our opportunity is also here, just replace those golden broad beans with iron sand according to the weight, and leave only a layer on the surface of the barrel to hide people's eyes......"

The young man said, "When it was time to add ingredients to the crucible, the first two sizes of fine golden sand had already melted, and those old men who were sparing their lives would not come close to see it." ”

Chen Xiaowang said, "How many percent?" I'm his concubine! ”

The old furnace servant said that every month someone in Qiuzi City will deliver our bonus to your home, you can rest assured.

Chen Xiaowang also wanted to ask in detail how to dispose of the cooked cement that entered the river. But when they saw Master Xie, the steward of the Chihe Gold Mine, his facial features distorted and he rushed here with people.

Chen Xiaowang insulted the concubine and was taken away by Lord Xie. The old and young furnace servants then heard Chen Xiaowang's screams from the office.
