Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 415: “For the country and the people”
"This is the manager's barracks. According to regulations, outsiders are not allowed to enter. Have they all obtained the permission of the branch office?" Zheng Ming asked even though he stepped aside.
"Hey, I said it was my friend, who is still an outsider. Why, can't you trust Uncle Deng?"
"How come. But these people are very born, they don't look like people from the county."
"We are from a foreign country." The leader said, indeed, it did not sound like a local accent.
"Yes, yes... it's a friend from outside." Uncle Deng patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, they all got the permission, otherwise they won't be able to enter the gate of the mine. There is guard guarding there. "
"Can you show me the license?"
"They are all kept at the gate guard post, lest you lose them. I said, your kid, don't ask questions, quickly enter the back room and pour tea for everyone. I can buy a few good dishes today." Uncle Deng Half of the voice suddenly rose, "Wait, where are you going to get dressed?"
"I went to the guard post, and it was stipulated that this thing should be carried with you. I will help you hold it without fear of losing it. Whether it is entering the mine or the barracks, permission is required—"
The voice of my colleagues stopped abruptly.
Huo Ying only felt the blood pouring, he saw a sharp knife emerging from behind Zheng Ming, and the head of the knife reflected dim blood. The leader pressed him tightly to his chest, causing him to convulse slightly, but he couldn't make a single cry.
"Master Chai, this..."
"He is too wordy, we are short on time."
"Oh, what a pity." Uncle Deng shook his head, turned and walked towards the house, "Master Huo, are you still there?"
Huo Ying, a scholar who has never seen such a scene, took two steps back and sat down on the ground, "You, you..."
He didn't notice until everyone entered the room. They all had weapons around their waists.
"Don't panic, they are all your own, sent by the court." Uncle Deng stretched out his hand and pulled him up, kindly comforted him, "You should know that Princess Guangping has rebelled?"
"I..." Huo Ying didn't know what to pick up for a while. It was indeed a treason to take the government office in Baisha County and let the branch office replace it, but everyone accepted it all right? At least none of the locals do not clap their hands and cheer.
He remembered that Uncle Deng was also participating in the celebration.
"I heard Zheng Ming said, are you a scholar? Scholars naturally hate such things as treason, but they don't dare to say anything." Uncle Deng took the key to the warehouse from the wall and threw it into his hand. "I also know that you have big ambitions in your heart. When you drink, you are screaming for your country and people. Now the opportunity is here."
"Opportunity... will?" He was stunned.
"Fighting against treason and helping the court and the Privy Council. Isn't this the right time to show the country for the people? Baisha Mine provides the necessary iron for Jinxia City. If it can interrupt its production, it will be a great achievement." Uncle Deng paused, "Of course you don't need to be afraid of retaliation from the rebels. After doing this, they will **** you and me out of Shenzhou to settle in Shangyuancheng. I will be a rich man, and you can also seal up Gyeonggi. The official Dangdang."
"Really?" Huo Ying asked subconsciously.
"Of course, they have sent my whole family there. If you help Uncle Deng this one, they promise to treat you like this."
In the conversation between the two, a dozen or so people in the room have put on a uniform, which is exactly the same as the Jinxia army.
Apparently this group came prepared.
The panic gradually receded, Huo Ying suddenly wanted to understand a little bit, and Uncle Deng was not the only one who decided to join the court. For example, there are usually five to six guards at the gates. They can come in quietly and must be answered by someone inside.
Going to Gyeonggi as an official... Honestly, this temptation has been infinite for him. If he hadn't always failed to get a Jinshi, he would not retreat and choose to go to the bureau to apply. Originally thought that he would be able to make a big splash in the General Administration, but he did not expect to be sent to Baisha County in the end. Huo Ying felt that it might be a good choice to leave.
Besides, can he refuse?
The tip of the knife that pierced Zheng Ming's back was still dangling in his mind.
"Are you finished?" The middle-aged man called Master Chai said blankly, "We have to hurry up."
The book kiosk that book friends used before has gone down, and now they are basically using MicMicReadingapp\.
"Give me some time-only he knows how to open the warehouse."
Huo Ying turned his head to look at the other person, "What Uncle Deng said is true? Can I go to Gyeonggi to become an official?"
The leader touched his arms and threw a bamboo tube to his chest.
He opened the lid of the tube. In addition to a roll of gold leaf, there was also a letter of appointment and dismissal-the official title and name column were empty, but the seal was already affixed. "The specific official depends on your contribution."
The answer is self-evident.
Fok Ying took a deep breath and put the bamboo tube into her arms, "What do you need me to do?"
"Open the warehouse, we need to pick up a few things."
"Only mine tools are stored there. Destroying them will have little effect on mine production."
"But there is gunpowder in these tools, isn't it?" Uncle Deng grinned.
……
The Baisha mine under the curtain of night is completely dark. In order to avoid being discovered by the guards, the group did not even lift the torch, relying on the dim moonlight to distinguish the direction.
The warehouse is just west of the yard. It is an old two-story brick building with no windows on all sides. The only entrance is a huge sliding iron door.
As he hurried, Uncle Deng's words kept lingering in Huo Ying's mind.
There is only one way to use gunpowder to interrupt the production of the mine-they want to blow up the mine and completely seal the entrance to the mine.
It is almost impossible to open up these channels again after more than ten years.
In terms of effectiveness alone, this approach is indeed a once and for all.
But they don’t seem to have considered a problem.
What should Baisha County do?
This county seat was established because of the Baisha Mine. Many residents living in the county have been miners for generations. They have been bound to the mine for almost all their lives. If the mine is gone, can Baisha County survive independently? ?
The answer is probably no~IndoMTL.com~ These 8,000 people have to leave their hometowns because of this.
The question is, besides Jinxia City, who else is willing to accept so many refugees? What's more, if the Princess Guangping failed to be killed, it would be a question whether Jinxia City could maintain the current practice.
The warehouse has arrived.
Huo Ying took out the key and hesitated, "Is it necessary to use gunpowder? If the mine is destroyed, what should the thousands of residents of Baisha Mine do?"
"What are you talking about, what you and I are doing now is a major fight against treason! Without the stability of the country, where can personal peace come!" Uncle Deng frowned, "This matter will be recorded in the annals of history in the future. Yes, don’t you want to leave a name in the book?"
"We are all working for Daqi, and the final benefit is the people of the world." Master Chai added in a deep voice behind, "Thousands of people and millions of people, which is more important, you should be able to distinguish clearly. ."
"I... got it."
Huo Ying inserts the key into the lock hole and turns it four times in sequence-this special lock requires four bolts to be opened consecutively before the iron door can slide open to one side.
With a soft click, the iron gate moved slowly, revealing a small gap between it and the wall.
"Help me push it—this door is too heavy for me to open it alone."
Immediately, three or four people approached the door and worked hard together.
At this moment, Huo Ying pushed back Uncle Deng abruptly, causing him to bump into Master Chai, and he turned the key to the wrong angle and lowered the last bolt again.
Only a dull boom was heard, and the sliding iron gate suddenly stopped.
At this moment, the gap between the door and the wall just allows him to pass sideways.
Fok Ying clings to the wall and squeezes into it desperately. The middle-aged man also opened Uncle Deng and drew his sword to stab him.
With the tingling of his waist, he finally passed through the crack of the door and fell to the ground in the warehouse.
