Feng Jiuxiao and the others walked forward slowly, and were surprised to find that there were three big red characters "Gangping Town" carved on a huge stone on the side of the road!

Liu Jinlin said: "Entering Gangping Town is equivalent to entering the territory of Huaiji! I heard that Gangping Town is the second richest town in Huaiji."

Pang Shishi said: "Second? It sounds like you are very rich. How can you be rich?"

Liu Jinlin said: "The simplest and crudest way to put it is that among the top one hundred wealthy households in Huaiji, Fenggang Town, which ranks first, accounts for thirty-six, Gangping accounts for thirty, and these two towns account for three.

Two-thirds, as for Wenlang Town, which ranks third, Maning Town, which ranks fourth, has nine each, and the remaining towns basically have three or two each. Some towns have almost no one on the list!" One hundred wealthy households.

It actually accounts for thirty, nearly one-third, which is indeed rich!

Pang Shiwu joked: "Why are they so rich? Do they have a mine at home?"

"Hey, you're right, they really have mines."

"Holy crap! What kind of mine? It can't be a gold mine, right?"

"Hey! You're right, it's really a gold mine! Of course, there are also granite and limestone mines! But the most profitable thing is the gold mine!"

"Aren't all gold mines controlled by the imperial court? Can private individuals also mine them?"

Liu Jinlin chuckled, "Who is the imperial court?"

Pang Shiwu raised his eyebrows and said: "To be specific, it's the emperor!"

Liu Jinlin chuckled, "The emperor is just one person. The world is so big and there are so many mineral deposits. Do you think he can dig it all by himself?"

"Of course we can't dig it out!"

"So we have to find someone to dig for him!"

"Then what?"

"Aren't you tempted by such a huge benefit in front of you?"

"I'm not moved."

Liu Jinlin was stunned for a moment, "You can kill people by chatting like this."

Pang Shiwu immediately admitted his mistake and quickly changed his words: "My heart is beating, my heart is beating, my heart is beating very much."

"Hey, that's pretty much it. When you are moved, you will naturally have an idea in your mind..."

Pang Shiwu immediately raised his hand and said, "Stop it now! Who is the 'you' you are talking about? Who is so awesome that he dares to touch the emperor's things at the risk of beheading?"

"This 'you' is of course those relatives of the emperor, princes, generals and ministers!"

"Oh, then how do they make money? No matter how awesome they are, they don't dare to go mining directly, right?"

"Of course! These people have the same routine as those treacherous ministers in other dynasties. They collude with each other and keep telling the emperor how the government has insufficient manpower, financial difficulties and low mining efficiency. Therefore, we can learn from the models of other dynasties.

, draw on private power to mine, if those big businessmen want money and people, we can leave it to them, as long as we pay them a certain amount of remuneration every month, right?"

"They mine, do they still have to be paid?"

“Mines mined by private parties are nominally subject to confiscation!”

"Who doesn't know the principle of plucking the hair of a goose? Those miners secretly hide several large tanks of gold mines every day. It's not like playing? Even if the gold is not refined every day, he only needs one melon seed today and one tomorrow.

With deductions the size of peanuts, everyone will make a fortune over time!"

"You do understand the key, haha."

"The Emperor of the Southern Han Dynasty is really stupid. Couldn't all these gold mines be dug up by those businessmen?"

"Hey, how can we do that? There are still these talented people and ministers supervising us!"

"Damn! Who doesn't know that they are the same? The big ones take the big head, and the small ones take the small ones. Specifically, when it comes to the supervisors in the mine, they throw a few bones and they start talking about it, and they have a great time being like dogs.

Huh!"

"Haha, brother, these words are so damaging and powerful!"

"By the way, Brother Liu, do you think all the gold mines here are controlled by Zhu Wu?"

"Hey, what do you think?"

"Hmph, he is under his control! He was originally the gangster who dominated the entire Lingnan. Later, he married a princess of the Southern Han Dynasty to clear his identity and became a relative of the emperor. Now he has become the emperor of the Southern Han Dynasty. The entire

Isn’t it true that the economic lifeline of the dynasty is even more tightly controlled by him?”

Liu Jinlin suddenly looked surprised. He did not expect that this was spoken by a boy under eighteen years old!

Very insightful!

When everyone arrived at the entrance of the town, everything was as expected, and the few eager people immediately came closer.

Among these five people, two or three have quite obvious appearance features. One has a crooked face with a particularly crooked mouth. It does not look like he was born with a disability, but rather like he was beaten the day after tomorrow. The other has a look of lewdness on his face.

From their appearance, the two of them were shaking their heads and slouching when walking, and you could tell at a glance that they were local scoundrels! They were basically around thirty or forty years old.

There was also a man with droopy eyes and black eyes who stood in front of the carriage and raised his hand to signal everyone to stop.

Pang Shishi sat in the car, looked down at these guys, and said calmly: "What are you doing?"

The crooked ruffian smiled crookedly, "Our village lost something valuable a few days ago, so we have to conduct routine inspections on every passing vehicle!"

Pang Shishi smiled and said, "Are you an official?"

The man with the crooked mouth crooked his mouth even more, and his smile became even more filthy, "No!"

Pang Shiwu said: "Since I'm not an official, why do you search my car?"

The crooked scoundrel shook his head and said, "Just because this is Gangping Town, my uncle has the final say here!"

Pang Shishi frowned and said, "Is your uncle the county magistrate?"

"The county magistrate is in Huaiji County. Even if he meets my uncle, he has to stay out of the way!"

"Oh, cool, your uncle is the governor of Duanzhou?"

"no!"

"Damn, it's neither this nor that, so what kind of official is it?"

"My uncle is not an official!"

"Damn! If he's not an official, then what is he?"

"Hey, to tell you the truth, my uncle is one of the three elders in the local area!"

"Oh, it turns out it's nothing, then you are so awesome?" Pang Shishi looked disgusted!

"What the hell are you talking about?" The crooked gangster's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately raised the stick in his hand, "You dare to insult my uncle, are you looking for a beating?"

Pang Shishi stretched his neck and pointed at his head and said: "Yeah, what the hell, come on, hit me like this!"

The man was suddenly startled. He had never seen such a crazy young man! It turned out that he did not take this young man seriously!

But now, he was suddenly shocked by the majestic murderous aura pouring out of the young man, and he didn't dare to take action for a moment! The murderous aura was so strong that he had never seen it in his life!

There was another burly man with a stern face and a machete in his hand, looking like a butcher. People in the town used to say that he was very evil, and all the dogs in the town were frightened to run away when they saw him, so he was usually very angry.

Arrogant and domineering, but today when he looked into the eyes of the young man in black, all his courage suddenly disappeared! He actually saw something incredible in the eyes of the young man in black!

Strange to say, in the eyes of the young man in black, there seemed to be a huge tiger roaming around! The huge fangs were ferocious, and a pair of huge eyes glared at him fiercely, as if he could rush out and devour him at any time! Unbelievable!

He rubbed his eyes and thought that his eyes were blurry in broad daylight, but when he looked carefully, it was clearly like this!

His eyes have been good since he was a child. The distance between him and the young man in black was only two feet. The young man in black's facial features were clearly visible. There was absolutely no mistaking him! He was stunned for a moment!

The five people were frightened by Pang Shiwu's murderous intent at the same time, and no one dared to step forward rashly!

Halfway up the mountainside in the distance, a few experts hiding in the dark were a little anxious, "Holy shit, why don't you do something?"

Another voice said: "Let me urge you!"

The man with the crooked mouth suddenly trembled, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he seemed to be a different person in an instant!

I saw his figure soaring, full of momentum, and the wooden stick in his hand pointed across Pang Shishi, "Boy, if you steal my things, hand it over immediately, and I will let you go! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

Liu Jinlin's eyes flashed, "Puppetry?"

Pang Fifteen asked: "Brother Liu, do you have a magic method?" The so-called magic method is naturally to fight without bloodshed, without harming the harmony, and it is best if the opponent retreats when he sees the difficulty!

Liu Jinlin shook his head and said: "I'm afraid only the young master has a wonderful method! I only have a stupid method!" He raised his fist!

At this time, Feng Jiuxiao suddenly opened the curtain and got out of the car, walked straight to the man with the crooked mouth, stared into the man's eyes, and said, "Kneel down!"

That man didn't kneel down!

Liu Jinlin and Pang Shiwu couldn't help being surprised at the same time!

Pang Shiwu knew that Feng Jiuxiao's drunken life and dreams were almost unstoppable in the world, but this unscrupulous scoundrel was indifferent. This was the first time he had ever seen her, and it was simply unbelievable!

Feng Jiuxiao smiled, "I know what's going on, but there's one part of it I'm still not sure about!"

Pang Shiwu asked: "What link?"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "The Demon Lord is thousands of miles away, how can I cast a spell to nail the soul-fixing needle into this person!"

Pang Shiwu asked doubtfully: "Soul-fixing needle?"

Feng Jiuxiao explained: "The Demon Lord once nailed the soul-fixing needle into the backs of the necks of Commander White Bones and the Dragon Controlling Saint, specifically to restrain my drunken dreams of life and death! With the soul-fixing needle, it will be difficult for me to deal with Commander White Bones and others.
