Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 286 Emerald
Myitkyina is just a small city with a population of [-] and [-] soldiers. Feng Daiwen led people to surround the city and surrendered before attacking.

"The people here are too spineless, and they surrendered before the fight started!" Yuchi Baoqing said dissatisfied.

Feng Daihuo nodded approvingly.

"Isn't it good not to fight? We are on an expedition, and supplies are not easy. One less fight will save some brothers from dying. It is always good.

As for why it was so easy to surrender, it was also because they seldom fought, and they were used to small towns submitting to big cities. Moreover, they belonged to the city-state system, and everything depended on the city lord. If the city lord is strong, naturally the soldiers are not weak. "Feng Daiwen stared at them angrily, and explained to them, after all, both of them are relatives.

"But even though it's a small town, there are quite a lot of gold and jewels! The Emerald Mountain shouldn't be far away, right?" Yuchi Baoqing said with a pout, holding a fist-sized emerald ball of transparent green and pure color in his hand, Toss it up and down.

"It's not far away! You stay here to defend the city, and tomorrow we will set off to look for it!" Feng Daiwen glanced at Feng Daihuo again. The natural human head jadeite in his hand looked like a real skull. It had a nose and eyes, but it was just the color. Emerald green, without that kind of spooky feeling.

He didn't understand that he had seized so many jadeites. He didn't want to play with them, so he chose one in such a shape. Feng Daiwen was also speechless about his younger brother's hobby.

"Don't! Brother-in-law, brother-in-law! Let them stay and defend the city, take me to see it, and gain knowledge!" Yuchi Baoqing hurriedly pleaded with a smile on his face.

When Feng Daiwen set off the next day, he still took Yuchi Baoqing with him, leaving Feng Daihuo, Li Deju, and Chen Hu to defend the city, and he brought 3000 people to hunt for treasure.

Just when Feng Daiwen set out to hunt for treasure, Chang Sun Chong brought Chai Lingwen, Chai Lingwu brothers, and a dozen second-generation officials who dreamed of making contributions and getting rich to Wa State City.

Chang Sun Chong originally thought that there would be twists and turns in taking over the Wa state, and he had already thought of countless countermeasures. He knew that Qin Huaiyu immediately handed over all the affairs of the city as soon as he arrived in Wa state.

This made him feel stunned and uncomfortable at the same time. Before he could use all his ideas, he had already got them, as if he had punched an empty punch, and he was panicked.

Well, if this is the case, it saves a lot of things. Just when he was planning to show his strengths and make some achievements, surpassing Feng Daiwen, Que found that his ideals are full and the reality is very skinny.

There is no commercial system in the city of Wa State, and it is all barter, which means that commercial taxation is difficult; because of the war, there are many fewer young and old people in and outside the city. Chang Sun Chong thought that these people were all killed in battle or fled.

He naturally didn't know that Feng Daiwen mobilized 2 captives, and Qin Huaiyu organized more than [-] people to dig mines. This is almost the majority of young and strong people in and out of the city.

"Governor, what should we do now?" Chai Lingwen asked Chang Sun Chong at a loss. Since it is already September and urban people are busy with autumn harvest every day, they don't know what to do, because they don't know how to grow The land has to be left to the people to use, and the population has decreased, and there is no extra labor for them to show their existence.

Chang Sun Chong looked at a loss, he didn't know where to start, the rich people in the city, the officials all had their homes ransacked, and the rest were all ordinary people, and they were all busy with the autumn harvest. And without the rich people, the economy is even more depressed, there is not even a street vendor, and the daily necessities store is still open, but there are not many customers to patronize.

Walking in the empty street, the people who had gone out to investigate looked at each other in dismay. They didn't know what they could see, and they couldn't find someone to ask. And now they found that no one could understand the local dialect. This made a group of high-spirited young people People are devastated.

"Others go find a way to investigate the situation and see what's going on, order Wen, order Wu and me to visit Qin Huaiyu!" Chang Sun Chong said through clenched teeth.

…………

"Is this section of the river?" Yuchi Baoqing immediately asked with great interest seeing Feng Daiwen staring at the river below.

Feng Daiwen took a telescope to look around, and then said: "It should be, Baoqing, you take people down, break open the stones by the river to have a look, Chen Xiong takes the prospector to the two mountains over there, and I take people Go upstream, you all go upstream to meet up later."

"Okay! Come on! Find gems with a certain family!" Yuchi Baoqing greeted excitedly, and rushed down after speaking, just like a devil entering a village, the people around him shouted, and led people to follow .

Feng Daiwen shook his head with a smile, seeing everyone rushing towards the destination in great excitement, he also led them to the upper reaches of the Wuyou River.

It took three days to reach the source of the Wuyu River, surrounded by rolling mountains, where the flow of the river is very small, and the water is not deep, and the riverbed is full of rocks.

"Hey! Hey! Brother-in-law, look!" Yuchi Baoqing said with hundreds of people, each holding one or two stones and piling up treasures together.

Feng Daiwen took a look, they were all very smart, he just cracked the stones a little to check, all the stones had a touch of green.

"Not bad, let someone polish it later, each brother's piece will be a family heirloom!" Feng Daiwen nodded and said.

"Oh! Oh! Thank you, General!" The soldiers who heard it around cheered happily, and those who didn't hear behind him hurriedly asked. After learning the news, they were all very excited.

"Brother-in-law, there are too many things here. All the stones on both sides of the river may be emeralds, but I don't know what the local people think. It is obviously a river, and the water is very deep, so it is called a river." Yuchi Baoqing Said in a very dissatisfied tone.

"It's not easy. This is the source. In the future, people will open up another river channel, and the downstream will naturally have no water. You can dig it however you want." Feng Daiwen said with a smile.

Thinking that the best jadeite in the world is left at your feet, and you are free to take what you want, no one is not excited. Feng Daiwen has seen too much recently, so his mentality is much calmer.

"Hehe, yes, brother-in-law, you have a good brain." When Yuchi Baoqing heard this, his attention was invincible, and his whole body felt sour from excitement.

"But it's too far away, how can we transport so much back?" Then he said to himself worriedly.

"I have no choice but to build roads slowly and move slowly, but this is also a good thing. If there are too many, it is worthless. Now this place belongs to Datang. We must vigorously publicize it so that everyone in the world Everyone loves this thing, so the price is high.

As for the poor ones, let the craftsmen spend a little more time to make them finer, so that they can get a good name and sell them to foreigners. "Feng Daiwen touched the stubble that he hadn't had time to take care of, and thought about it.
