Section 0624 A Secret Coast
Hearing Wu Niang's complaint, Liu Mu hurriedly coaxed:
"It's okay, we seem to see a big island, I don't know what place it is, go down to hunt and stay for two days, and then go back, okay."
Liu Mu didn't say a word of truth in his mouth.
The hunting was carried by several female cavalrymen, accompanied by Xiao Ling'er and her maids.
Only Sanniang felt that Liu Mu might have something confidential to do, so she didn't let Xiao Ling'er accompany her, and found an excuse for her to take her two younger sisters, the six female cavalry and their maids together, just go around the edge of the forest near the sea, find a good place to have fun for a day, and go on a boat at night.
Liu Mu held the compass in his hand and roughly looked at the direction: "Go in that direction, if the location is not wrong, it should be about fifteen miles." ”
Iwami Ginzan can be said to be one of the essential materials for every historical writer.
The real location is about 6 kilometers from the sea, about 70 miles from the Izumo Coast, the westernmost part of Matsue Bay, and then 6 kilometers down at a 40-degree angle to the southeast.
It was there that the first open-pit silver mine was discovered.
Then go further southeast, surrounded by various terrains and different types of silver ore.
Iwami Silver Mountain has silver-gold mining area, horn silver mining area, selenium-silver mining area, etc., as well as associated copper-silver ore, lead-zinc ore, galena, pyrite and so on.
The people of the willow belt first went into the cave, and a few people collected stones on the ground.
That night, the last three men to return placed a stone in front of the willow wood, and saw that the stone looked like bright granite from a distance, but with bright yellow patches.
"This stone is a strange color." Xiao Ling'er still doesn't know what Liu Mu is here for.
She also didn't know the ore.
Yanagi asked, "How is the condition?" ”
"Lang Jun, silver and gold mines. As far as I'm concerned, I'm afraid it's ......" The leader of the three-person team stopped, because even he couldn't believe this speculation.
Liu Mu smiled: "Say, how much do you feel?" ”
"We estimate that there can be at least eight million taels of silver here. This is a silver-gold mine, and there will be almost 10,000 taels of gold. ”
Liu Mu laughed: "Do you feel that the conclusion of the survey is too untrue? ”
"Yes!"
"Tomorrow to continue. I'm only going to give all of you three days to find out as much as you can. I'm not afraid to tell you that what I told the sage about the silver here is to exchange all the bricks and stones in the whole of Chang'an for silver. All you have to do is make a mark, a secret mark, and see with your own eyes that there is a silver mine here. ”
"Yes, Zun Lang Jun commanded."
More than a dozen prospecting teams did not gather, and they were very careful not to discuss Yanagi's words.
Each rests in their respective tents, and tomorrow they divide the area to continue their survey.
A full quarter of an hour later, Liu Mu and Baoqin lay on the table marking the map, Xie Xing'er and Xiao Ling'er came back to their senses, even if they had heard Dugu Lanruo mention the silver mine before, but when they really got here, they still couldn't believe that all this was true.
Why did Yanagi come over. Because the Tang Emperor Li Shimin wanted to fight, and fighting a war required military spending.
In addition, Su Iling wants to burn Queen Tuigu, even if there will be chaos in Wadao, and he wants to expand his investment in Wadao, this huge amount of funds cannot be raised by the private sector, and draining the wealth of the people of Datang will affect the development of Datang.
Only Iwami Ginzan.
The silver of this silver mountain, the willow wood is ready to start digging out secretly.
As for the reason, Yanagi has already thought it out.
Borrow the Matsue Bay garrison fleet, the fishing fleet, and then cover the silver mines. The silver ore was then hidden on a fishing boat and pulled back to Laizhou, where it was slowly refined.
At this time, what Yanagi wants is evidence.
Let the Tang Dynasty believe in his own evidence, the evidence is the ore, which is what these survey teams have seen with their own eyes.
"Husband, husband, this is the silver mountain?" Xiao Ling'er finally came back to her senses.
"Well, that's it, all dug up is estimated to be five, ten, or even dozens of times the silver of the whole Datang, and it can't be dug up here for hundreds of years, and all kinds of ore veins are all over the surrounding mountains for nearly a hundred miles."
After going to sea for more than ten days, Liu Mu finally told the truth.
Xiao Ling'er's eyes changed: "Husband, then you should kill all the nobles on Wadao." ”
"Stupid, after killing all the nobles of Wajima, the Wa people will be in chaos, and we won't be able to take advantage of it. Okay, this silver mine has a share from your Xiao family and a share from the Xie family. Of course, this matter can only be kept secret, and it cannot be known to the Japanese people in the past ten years, so the people of Datang cannot know either. ”
Xiao Ling'er understands that the distribution of this silver mine must be the treasury, the royal family, and the general secretary. Then there are the famous families who can come up with huge sums of money, and finally the miners who have crossed the ocean to drink some soup and earn more coins to go home.
The next day, just when the survey team of Yanagiki found another piece of sterling silver ore, the Asuka area of Yamato Province.
The fire erupted in the early hours of the morning.
The Shadow Knife stepped on the corpse and walked into the most luxurious palace here, and the old and frail Queen Tuigu sat on the bed and stared at the Shadow Knife as she walked in step by step.
"Who are you?" Queen Tuigu asked twice in a row.
The first time she used the Japanese language, she could see that the person who came in was at least seven inches taller than the Japanese people, and she was still a woman. So for the second time, I was asking questions in Chinese.
"Notabe, I'm the one who was ordered to send you on your way."
"Who are you?"
Queen Suiko has lost her former steady, because the name Nutabe has been called for nearly fifty years, and it can be said that everyone who knows this name has died.
This was her original name, the name of her girlhood.
"How did you sit on the throne. Back then, Su Ma Zi killed Hase Bu Ruo Bird and pushed you to become king. Now, the daughter of a lowly little nobleman of the Soga clan will kill you, and then the prince of Tamura will be king. Shadow Knife said unhurriedly.
She wasn't worried that someone could eavesdrop on her.
She brought a hundred top masters around here, and even Gongsun Thirteen Niang was invited out of the mountain.
Gongsun Sanniang is the master of Princess Pingyang Zhao, not in the green forest, but even Mu Yun doesn't dare to say that he can beat this woman, the only one who dares to fight with him is Zhang Chuchen alone.
"Su I Ling !!" Queen Tigu screamed.
"That's right, but she doesn't have the ability to kill you at all, the power of my family Langjun is not qualified to borrow from Su Iling, a cheap maid, let you die, from your sentence of the sunrise of the Son of Heaven, you will definitely die." My family Langjun heard that you are not lightly ill, so I don't plan to give you a chance to die. ”
"Who is he?"
Shadow Knife didn't answer, he reached out and hit a curtain that had been burned by fire on the bed, the silk could easily catch up when it caught fire, not to mention that it was surrounded by fire.
