Qin Tianmin chatted with the group of yamen runners for a while. One of them, who was in his forties and had a fat and round face, followed him far behind, as if he was coming to talk to Lu Hong, but he was very strange and did not come up immediately.

Qin Tianmin came over to Lu Hong, "My benefactor, that fat man is the headmaster of the Mengyin County Government. I just told them everything. The body of the bandit leader Ma Heizi and the living will be handed over to them. We may have to stay in Mengyin for one more day tomorrow and receive the silver reward. My benefactor wants to go to the yamen with me, but..."

Speaking of this, Lu Hong looked at Qin Tianmin's expression of wanting to speak but stopping. He was not a little white Ding. Although he had never been through this era, in this kind of thing, I guess the local snakes who were in a cloud of darkness would naturally benefit. "Brother Qin, you know the rules on this side better than me, you can do it!"

Lu Hong's answer was a bit clear, somewhat beyond Qin Tianmin's expectations. The biggest rule in the Qing Dynasty's officialdom was naturally the distribution of money, which was the benefits. The government offices that were in charge would all have more points, that is, the lijin and agricultural tax that were related to the lifeline of the country, and they still had to pluck their hair... So, although Lu Hong killed this bandit leader, but now he died on Mengyin, the county magistrate, chief clerk, head arrester, and constable of Mengyin County had to share the benefits.

He had previously introduced himself as a student who returned from overseas and was a little worried about whether this benefactor was not familiar with the rules of the Qing dynasty. However, now he had no other concerns. He made a gesture to the fat man, Captain Qian. The fat man came over happily and bowed to Lu Hong very unexpectedly...

"Young Master Lu is such a great man. This place has been a disaster for more than ten years and has not been brought to justice. I didn't expect it to fall into our clouded land this time!" Fat Master Qian was so majestic with his chest and belly folded. When he said this, it seemed that he had killed the bandits. When he said this, the fat man changed his mind, "Young Master Lu, Mr. Qin has told me just now. Come to the yamen to draw a ban. I will help you with the silver reward and license!"

The fat man's proper arrangement made Lu Hong feel like he had encountered the living Lei Feng of the old era. However, this guy's fat body had no potential as a public servant. Qin Tianmin next to him immediately took over the topic after seeing Lu Hong's courtesy, "Catcher Money, soon you will send two constables to follow my followers to move the corpses of those bandits. Those are all in your name. The reward of silver will be based on the rules. Take 6 from the yamen and Mr. Lu get 4, but then get the license soon!"

The two began to skillfully discuss the distribution of interests of the local bandits in front of Lu Hong. Qin Tianmin was obviously well aware of this and was very good at choosing interests. The headmaster Qian was naturally more energetic, with a fat face shining with golden light. Soon, the two agreed, and Qian said hello politely and bowed happily.

Today, robbing the bandits' money bags gave Lu Hong some wealth, so he didn't have any special expectations for the silver reward. The "license" that Qin Tianmin repeatedly emphasized during his discussion with Fatty Qian made him somewhat interested. After entering the county town, he asked Qin Tianmin only realized that this thing was equivalent to the "Certificate of Charity for Justice" in later generations.

If it were ordinary people, this kind of thing would not be of much use. Obviously, Qin Tianmin did not look like ordinary people at all. Obviously, he also believed that Lu Hong had such skills and had experience in studying abroad. Although he might not be able to say that his future was limitless in this era of Westernization, he naturally believed that his benefactor would definitely seek an official in the future.

It is normal to be buried with ability above the official road, but with his own experience in the officialdom, this license issued by the yamen will have a special effect at that time! Therefore, he repeatedly decided on this matter with Fatty Qian.

When he arrived at the inn, Qin Tianmin obviously overdrawed his energy. After eating, he came over to say hello to Lu Hong with a look of fatigue, and then went back to the room to rest. However, this guy seemed a little different, and the walls of the inn were too thin. As a result, Lu Hong soon heard the noise of this guy fighting with his wife...

After Lu Hong showed his might today, he was full of energy. After taking a hot bath, he felt even more comfortable after washing. After washing, he began to count the Yingyang and Yin in his pocket. Unexpectedly, the super industrial system was unexpectedly activated...

"Get funds for 38 Mexican silver dollars, 45 taels of silver 3 coins... The system is being activated... Tips: The first-level resource collection system is activated! You can get relevant tips by selecting this system!"

Unexpectedly, the first triggering condition of this super industrial system was silver... This made Lu Hong both angry and funny. The truth was very simple and straightforward. However, at this moment, his interest immediately focused on the super system that had just been triggered, silently reciting the first-level resource collection system. Sure enough, a large holographic image slowly revealed, and there were detailed explanations.

"The superindustrial system is preparing data...the data is ready!" Soon, some star-like data on the holographic image were marked, "The system is positioned as: 35 degrees east longitude, 117 degrees north latitude, and the detection range of the first-level resource acquisition system is 25 kilometers. The resources that can be mined are as follows: coal, limestone, granite, diamond, clay, high-quality spring water..."

Unexpectedly, this remote red revolutionary base area was so rich in minerals. He glanced over and immediately set his eyes on the three words "diamond". Oh my god... There is this thing!

After thinking about it carefully, he realized that the Mengyin Diamond Mining Area is indeed very famous. It was once the largest diamond mine in Asia in later generations. It was personally approved by Taizu of New China as a national key project, with a long-term mining reserve of 20 million carats.

However, Lu Hong was not stupid enough to go to the mountain to explore the mine. He knew the reason why he was guilty of possessing a treasure. The reason why he was concerned about the diamond vein was nothing more than because this thing was undoubtedly the most expensive business he made now! However, if you make money quickly, you have to be able to get it!

Moreover, the mining of deep diamond veins is definitely a super-large engineering project. Lu Hong never thought that this super industrial system could be transformed into a machine out of thin air. Even if there is a machine, there must be a complete set of power equipment. The drilling of deep mineral veins, even if there is a machine, there must be excellent workers... and all of this is obviously not up to date.

However, since the system showed the diamond veins, it made sense. He immediately expanded the logo of the Mengshan diamond veins displayed on the hologram. Sure enough, the first-level resource collection system provided a equipment drawing called a hydraulic chute ore dresser. When clicking on the hologram of this machine, a very strong Shanxi accent explanation came immediately... Oh my god, is the guy who developed the system actually a Shanxi lust? Can't you find a beautiful woman to match the voice? Thinking of this, Lu Hong couldn't help but sneer his middle finger.

"The core equipment of the hydraulic chute ore dresser is the primary process roller shaft, and the process focus is on the transmission part J1034. The following five key points need to be paid attention to in manufacturing. First, select materials, and ordinary wrought iron can meet the production requirements..."

After a simple and accurate explanation, Lu Hong, who was a technical background, understood the principle of this ore dresser after a little research. It is a machine with a principle similar to a manual gold chute. Because the ore specific gravity is different, it provides hydraulic ore dressing functions by building suitable water tower equipment.

It is indeed something provided by the first-level resource collection system. This thing is really primitive compared to later machinery! However, in this mountainous area where birds do not shit, it is particularly practical. Lu Hong could even imagine that if a suitable mineral vein could be found, it would only take a small amount of manpower to complete the primary industrial-grade production...

You should know that diamonds are produced, not ordinary things. Even with a low output, they can produce amazing value! The most important thing about this thing is the ore dressing plan. Moreover, the super industrial system also reminds that this primary hydraulic ore dressing machine can also find peridot in diamond veins at the same time. Garnet, an accompanying ore, also has great value. Lu Hong's thoughts were immediately attracted by this project!

Of course, there are other industries in the area, but the heavy industry pillars such as coal are not even convenient for transportation in the valleys, let alone large-scale transportation, so Lu Hong did not consider it at all! And another pillar industry of the industrial revolution, the steel industry, has no prompts at all in the current superindustrial system.

After careful study, Lu Hong finally saw a message of prompting, "The first-level resource collection system is an industry that must be expanded on a large scale in the early stages of industrialization. The disadvantage is that the industry is small in scale and low production efficiency. The advantage is that the equipment investment cost is low, which makes it easy to utilize labor!"

This made him realize that those included in the first-level resource collection system are all resources that can generate industrial value without refining. In this way, other industries mentioned in the system do have certain value. After all, the low investment industry threshold is a huge industrial advantage...

After making plans, Lu Hong felt a little more happy. Seeing that the sky was still bright, he walked out of the inn and touched the dozens of Yingyang in the money bag on his waist. His slab was also much straightened... Let's wave goodbye to the day when a penny could not kill the hero!

At the entrance of the inn, Qin Fang, the older servant of Qin Tianmin, was sitting and drinking tea. When he saw Lu Hong coming out, he stood up and asked respectfully: "Master Lu, you are going out!"

The title of Mr. Lu is somewhat unbearable to Lu Hong. He grew up under the red flag and often heard the title of boss. This master... He smiled in his stomach. This is also considered to be a local custom. He nodded at Qin Fang, "Old Qin, are you still familiar with this Mengyin?"

"Cooked...cooked... I have to pass by several times a year," Lao Qin replied immediately with a smile.

This old Qin looks quite capable. Lu Hong's Mandarin from the later East China region is definitely a foreign accent in this Shandong area. Someone can save a lot of trouble when taking a road. Lu Hong nodded and smiled: "Old Qin, I want to buy two pieces of changing clothes, so please lead a road!"

Lao Qin led Lu Hong out of the inn and headed straight to the Xicheng Gate. There was a casual chat along the way, which allowed Lu Hong to learn a lot of useful information for him. However, the problem he had been quite puzzled before, Lao Qin also said some details without any concealment.

Qin Tianmin is indeed not an ordinary person, and he reported that his family's "Fei County Student" was a real fame. However, this guy is obviously not just this identity. Old Qin also mentioned that this guy is actually a real-time county magistrate of Boxing, Shandong and Qingcheng... However, when talking about his official position, Old Qin also looked a little evasive.

This obviously made Lu Hong confused. This guy actually had the official position of a 7th-rank county magistrate... This Shandong bandit is extraordinary, and he really dares to attack when he kills officials and robs money! However, there are many doubts in this matter. Judging from Lao Qin's appearance, there must be some tricks. Of course, he did not mean to ask the truth!

After the old Qin changed the topic, he naturally talked about their Qin family. It was a famous family in Feixian County, and it was definitely considered a scholarly family, but it was not considered a prominent family after all. The reason was Qin Tianmin's father. His father Qin Tianxi was a local celebrity back then. He passed the imperial examination at the age of 18 and passed the imperial examination at the age of 24. He was selected as a Hanlin student for three years. He was then sent to the Ministry of Personnel as an alternate magistrate to await appointment!

According to the rules of the Qing Dynasty officialdom, these alternate officials who came out of the Hanlin Academy have a true nickname - "Tiger Class"!

You should know that in the Qing Dynasty, there were many officials donations in the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty. The fourth-rank Hou Budaotai were also very numerous. However, from the standby to the actual position, most donated officials could wait for the opportunity to live. The officials from this tiger squad were serious tigers on the list of the Ministry of Personnel. According to the rules of the Ministry of Personnel, these men were the first to choose the first one. Others had to wait in line for them to get the chance after they finished picking!

Therefore, Qin Tianmin's father was in a glorious position at that time, and he also gave some money to the first-class Huang County in Shandong to serve as an official. Unfortunately, he was not lucky enough. He had only been in office for two months, but Huang County suffered from the epidemic. The magistrate was not spared and died in office!

Speaking of this, Lao Qin also sighed at his grandfather, allowing Lu Hong to feel the admiration like the surging river...

Lu Hong talked while walking. The old Mengyin city was really not prosperous, and it could even be said to be quite depressed. Although the walls of the entire Tucheng were also brick and stone structures, they were mostly rammed yellow mud and covered with brick and stone. There were broken and collapsed places everywhere. The shops in the county town were basically concentrated on the West Street, and there were only seven or eight shops.

Along the way, there were beggars in ragged clothes begging or basking in the sun everywhere. He couldn't help but ask curiously: "Old Qin, are there so many beggars in Mengyin?"

Lao Qin was stunned when he heard about Mr. Lu's question, but he thought that Mr. Lu was a person studying abroad and might have never seen this poor place. "Mr. Lu, this small countryside place has the most time for beggars after this year. In fact, most of them are people who fled from the countryside and went back to farm in two months... Last year, there were locust plagues in Yizhou, Tai'an and Yanzhou, but they were finally not harvested. Otherwise, the beggars in Mengyin City would have to be several times more!"

When Lao Qin talked about the locust plague, he looked depressed and sighed, "My benefactor, our master is so kind, but his official fortune is not good. He was not in good condition when he was an official in Boxing. Last year, he spent a lot of money to transfer to Qingcheng, but he was in this natural disaster..."

Old Qin said this and shut up again, but Lu Hong could tell some of the meaning. The Qin Tianmin Qin County Magistrate must have been unsatisfied with his official position and had some unlucky things... However, he could only keep these thoughts in his stomach for the time being. At least for now, it is much safer to follow Qin Tianmin than to run around alone.

The county is small enough, only half an hour later. Lao Qin has led Lu Hong to the ready-made clothing store to buy a long cloth gown and jacket. With his size, it is not easy to buy two sets of clothes. The price is quite expensive. After all, he actually bought 7 yuan Yingyang. The owner of the store is quite polite. Finally, he sent a black fake braid, which made Lu Hong scratch his head for a long time...

When they left the shop, it was almost dark. The two of them rushed back to the inn. When they arrived at the ground, they saw a group of people gathering outside the inn and gathering in a large circle. There were people who were unscrupulous and arrogant in the circle.
Chapter completed!
