Chapter 420 (2/2)
”Naturally stay here, so that those who are willing to stay will join other craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty. After the gold is restored to a bright color, it will be transported back to Datang by water.” Li Hong explained to them patiently.
Next to the Huameng feel redundant, direct orders them to stay is, really can't tell shangguanyi, want to come they also dare not violate.
Li Hong was too lazy to pay attention to Huameng's disdainful expression, and continued to ask with a smile: ”from your point of view, how long will it take for the mine here to be completely completed and then to be able to mine smoothly?”
”It will take about half a year, but as soon as winter comes into this place, there will be no way to work. Sir, this time next year may be OK.” More hongwenguan students are willing to call Li Hong Mr.
”Would you like to stay here until next year? Wait until the mine can be mined smoothly, and then go back? ” Li Hong asked with a smile. The sunlight sprinkled on his face through the gap between the leaves, which made his skin white a lot.
”Sir, we are willing to stay. But Students... ”
”Say what you have. You'll be tongue tied.” Hua Meng hastens a way.
Your majesty has been in the humiliating city for two days. The prince's highness is not slow to visit the mountains and rivers. In his opinion, even the piles of gold were no more important than his Majesty's call.
Therefore, in order to let the prince's highness rush back to humiliating Yi City as soon as possible, Huameng had to hasten the students to say.
”What are you worried about? I'm not in a hurry. What are you worried about? Wouldn't it be better if things were arranged properly here? Do you want me to go back and do it again? ” Li Hong glared at Hua Meng.
”I dare not.” Huameng is honest and stands beside the cheetah and becomes two mummies.
”You go on, what's the worry?” Li Hong smiles and signals the student to sit down and continue to eat.
”Sir, the students are not afraid of death. They are just worried. In case our troops in Datang withdraw, we will exploit the mines here, but will it be cheaper for those Koguryo people? How can you guarantee that these things can be transported back to our Datang? ”
”Humiliating Yi city will become our garrison base and protect everything of Tang Dynasty in Koguryo. As long as something is lost in Datang, even if it is a cow in the mine, the king of Koguryo can double the compensation to us, so you have some extra worries.”
In order to make these enlightened students willing to stay here, Li Hong had to bear to solve their doubts.
After all, if they feel uneasy, if the mining capacity of the mine fails to meet the standard, it will be a waste of manpower and material resources, and may even become a wedding dress for the winners among Silla, Baiji and Koguryo in the future.
When several students heard Li Hong's words, they immediately felt at ease. If the army of Tang Dynasty was stationed after humiliating the city of Yi, then this was the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and there was no matter whether it would be taken away by foreigners.
So several students nodded and said, ”Sir, the student is willing to stay and mine this mine.”
”That's all right. Now I'll leave some soldiers for you to protect the safety of your mineral exploration during this period. In a few days, more craftsmen will come with you, and some will help you to build the mine. At that time, you will be the first group of meritorious officials.” Li Hong got up, went to the students and patted them on the shoulder with satisfaction. Then he hurried down the mountain and walked along the stream when he came.
The mountains are not high here, but there are many dense forests. The best way to avoid getting lost is to follow the stream all the way up or down, so that you can find your way safely without distinguishing the direction.
He left behind a hundred soldiers and those students to continue to search for larger mineral deposits, and he needed to rush to the city of humiliation. Otherwise, long dad, who had been waiting for two days, would have beaten people.
But now they are far away from the city of humiliation. I'm afraid it will take several hours for them to rush back as fast as possible. By the time of the city of humiliation, it is already the time of silence and silence.
The city of humiliation was completely controlled by the Tang army. According to the requirements of the city defense forces, Hua Meng had to throw the prince's Royal Highness's token on the upper tower of the city. After the inspection, he slowly opened the gate and walked in.
