Du He immediately announced that he would remove the hair from the remaining wolf, dissect it, clean it, and make a new pot of wolf broth.
As for the dozen prisoners, they were all tied up with ropes and handed over to Xu Zhengdao for interrogation.
Not long after, Xu Zhengdao came back and said helplessly: "These guys don't know anything about anything, so just kill them all."
Du He was not surprised when he heard this: "Our enemy this time is not simple. We have fought several times over such a long time, but no flaws have been revealed. Every time we caught them, they were just peripheral personnel without knowing anything.
Things like love are getting more and more interesting!"
As he said that, he shook his head: "It would be a pity to kill him. When we find coal in a few days, we will have to build a coal mine belonging to the Dream Group. By then, digging coal will require a lot of manpower. These guys are all very strong."
, just for digging coal.”
Not far away, a craftsman suddenly shouted: "Master, the wolf soup is ready."
Only when Du He came over did everyone dare to use their chopsticks.
A group of people gathered around the big iron pot and started eating happily.
To the great surprise of the craftsmen, Du He did not show any pomp and circumstance, but mingled with everyone, which was very different from the past when everyone came into contact with high-ranking officials.
It wasn't until midnight that everyone fell asleep.
A night of silence.
In the early morning of the next day, Du He ordered people to burn the bodies of the dead men in black. He left three guards in the camp to guard the prisoners, and then he personally took Mu Zongsi and others to continue.
Explore coal mines.
…
Chang'an City.
boom.
In the yard, the stone table was kicked out with a ghostly kick.
"Hmph, trash, they are all trash. In just half a month, I have lost hundreds of masters in several battles with Du He. If this continues, I will kill them all before Du He can take action." Ghost God.
Said angrily.
Cui San stood aside without saying a word.
The ghost suddenly turned around and asked: "How is the thing I asked you to do?"
"Sir," Cui San said hurriedly, "everything continues as usual. In a few days, Ma Bin will take the bait. By then, as long as Ma Bin is in hand, I don't believe Ma Zhou won't listen to us."
The ghost nodded with satisfaction: "Du He is really difficult to deal with. We didn't kill him this time in Lantian. It will be even more difficult to kill him in the future. Now, I have to put my hope in Ma Zhou."
Ma Bin is Ma Zhou's useless nephew.
…
On this day, Ma Bin came out of Xinghuafang, but he was downcast and unhappy.
He stayed in the gambling house for three consecutive days and lost all the 100,000 Kaiyuan Tongbao he was carrying.
"Let's go back to see Third Uncle. I heard that Third Uncle was hanging out with Du He in Qujiang Pool during this period. Du He is the richest man in Chang'an and the best at making money. I must have made money with him.
It takes a lot of money." The third uncle mentioned by Ma Bin was none other than Ma Zhou.
Ma Bin hurried back to Ma's house and hurried to the study room to ask Ma Zhou for money.
Ma Zhou angrily picked up the book in his hand and slapped Ma Bin on the head, "You bastard, you didn't learn well at the age of seventeen or eighteen, but you got into the bad habit of gambling. What do you want me to do? From today on, you
You are not allowed to gamble anymore and stay at home to study. When I can pass the citizenship test and become an official in the court in the future, I will be worthy of my deceased eldest brother. I must not do anything wrong again!"
Ma Zhou's eldest brother died young, leaving behind an only son, Ma Bin, who was brought up entirely by Ma Zhou's hand, but he turned out to be a failure.
Ma Bin made a big fuss, but didn't even get a penny.
After returning to the room, the more I thought about it, the more unconvinced I became, so I quietly slipped out of Ma Mansion.
I just came to the alley behind Ma Mansion.
Ma Bin then bumped into an acquaintance, it was Cui San, a wealthy businessman whom he met while gambling.
As soon as Cui San saw Ma Bin, he asked with a smile: "Master Ma, are you losing money again?"
Ma Bin nodded and sighed: "Don't mention it. I've been very unlucky these days. I've lost hundreds of thousands in a row. By the way, Brother Cui, you are a businessman. You must have a lot of spare money in your hands. Why don't you lend some to your brother?"
How about it, I promise, within five days, when I get my principal back, I will return it all to you. If you think it’s not possible, you can also pay interest. When the time comes, I will return the principal to you with interest. How about that?"
Cui San was calm on the outside, but he was already happy inside.
Cui San grabbed Ma Bin's sleeve and said with a smile: "Mr. Ma, it's easy to talk..."
…
The sun is shining brightly.
Zhizhi shouted tirelessly.
Du He took the lead, leading everyone through the mountain col.
Along the way, Lu Bu held a three-edged sword to clear the way and slaughtered many wild beasts.
Seeing that everyone could hardly hold it any longer.
Du He just heard the sound of rushing water not far away, so he said: "Everyone, hold on a little longer. There is a stream ahead. Let's go to the stream to have a rest and eat something before continuing to search."
Everyone couldn't help but quicken their pace. After a while, they came to a small stream, found a flat place, and began to sit down and rest.
Two craftsmen were going to wash their faces by the stream. As they walked past, they suddenly screamed.
"ah……"
"Oh no!"
The two of them ran back in a hurry.
Du He grabbed the two of them and asked hurriedly: "What's going on?"
One of them said: "Uncle Yi County, what's wrong, the water in this stream is poisoned, and it turns out to be black."
Du He picked up the three-edged military spur and rushed to the stream to take a look.
I saw that the water flowing in the creek was completely black.
He squatted down and fished it out with his hands. When he picked it up, he saw black sand.
Du He suddenly laughed loudly: "Hahaha, you can't find anything even if you wear iron shoes, it doesn't take much effort to get here!"
That's right, what Du He is holding is exactly cinders.
Mu Zongsi and others rushed up.
After a while, Mu Zongsi said with certainty: "Yes, this is black soil. As long as you follow this stream, you will definitely find the source of the black soil."
In this way, everyone's fatigue was swept away, everyone was energetic, and they were ready to set off immediately.
Everyone followed the upstream direction of the stream and soon came to the foot of a lush mountain. There was a dam at the foot of the mountain, which was the birthplace of the stream.
Mu Zongsi excitedly asked the craftsmen to dig up the turf, and there was coal all under his feet.
Originally, everyone thought that finding black soil was a very difficult task, because Duhe's requirements were too high, not only in the open air, but also in terms of huge yields.
But no one expected that the task was completed in less than two days.
Mu Zongsi stood outside the crowd and looked at Du He with doubts on his face.
Although he and many of the craftsmen present were good at prospecting, Du He personally took the lead in finding the black soil, and it was Du He who guided the way along the way.
In other words, this black soil was completely found by Du He and had nothing to do with them.
Mu Zongsi couldn't help but feel confused. Along the way, Du He seemed to know beforehand that there was black soil here. Is he really the top dude in Chang'an who is ignorant and ignorant?
