Chapter 132
Then, the shopkeeper had to die of smallpox...
Not only did he die by himself, but his family and young, from his elderly father to his newly fertilized children, all died on smallpox. You should know that after Li Zhen came to the Tang Dynasty, he thought the most meaningful thing was to use cowpox to inoculate smallpox, so that the demon smallpox could no longer threaten the lives of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty no longer had to talk about smallpox and became disgusted.
Because of Li Zhen's efforts, the Tang Dynasty had completed the popularization of vaccinia prevention and control of smallpox more than ten years ago. Everyone in the Tang Dynasty, including newborn children, had vaccinated vaccination. It is logical that smallpox should not be regenerated. However, the shopkeeper not only died of smallpox, but also caused the family to die. This is incredible.
At that time, no one thought that there was something strange about it, but after careful inspection by coroners and doctors, they were surprised to find that their family really died of smallpox. This not only planted haze in the hearts of the people of Chang'an City, but also deeply shocked Gong Qin, because Gong Qin knew very well that the forces behind the Captain Qin were showing their strength to him, and at the same time, they were also warning him to do things honestly, otherwise we could make a family vaccinated with smallpox decay. Naturally, there were ways to make you die without a burial place. Not only you, but your family and friends would disappear from this world.
In fact, several later events proved that they had this ability. After taking the position of factory director, Gong Qin certainly could not have offended others, especially some of them were Li Zhen's confidants. They soon discovered something wrong with Gong Qin and also discovered that he was secretly smelting silver for others, which made them very angry.
Someone came to ask Gong Qin for trouble and asked sternly, but not long after he came out, his legs were cut off by the rushing horse, and then he was crushed into meat paste by the level truck filled with silver ore immediately following him, which was terrible.
Some people also tried to secretly collect evidence and planned to send it back to Lingnan and hand it over to Li Zhen, but when checking the furnace, they accidentally fell into the furnace, and their whole body was turned into ashes by the high temperature of the furnace, completely destroyed, with no bones left, and no place to die.
Some people also attempted to attack Gong Qin, intending to take the initiative to take the initiative to take responsibility for his crimes, but before they could do it, they fell into the water and drowned because of a mistake. When the body was caught, the body was soaked.
Moreover, not only were they in trouble, but their families also had no news - because when the messenger who reported the death sent the news back to the deceased's hometown, he found that the deceased's family was either dead or missing, and no one was found again.
From then on, Gong Qin never encountered any trouble again, and the factory director also became more and more stable, but humans were a kind of forgetful animal. At the beginning, Gong Qin was still very awe-inspiring about the forces behind Qin's captain. Every task was perfect, so nothing happened. However, over time, even with Gong Qin's fear, he couldn't help but let go of his vigilance. Especially after all the major forces extended their hands to the silver mine, Gong Qin's income became more and more high. Every force wanted to reach out here, Gong Qin was an inevitable level, so when a force reached in, he had to give him a piece of filial piety and corresponding shares...
In addition, others asked him to ask him, and every time they met, they naturally had to say a few flattering words. So slowly, Gong Qin's spirit gradually grew higher, and he gradually forgot the terror of the power behind Qin's Captain Qin and no longer took them seriously. Moreover, this force was really insatiable. The monthly silver gradually increased from 15,000 taels to 30,000 taels, and now it has increased by 50,000 taels. If they responded to this, they might increase again next month. If he had so much request, even if Gong Qin regarded himself as a furnace, how could he melt so much, unless he did not melt Li Zhen...
If it were just their family stealing the mine, not to mention 50,000 taels, even 100,000 taels Gong Qin could squeeze out a certain amount of time - after all, the smelting technology of the Shijian Silver Mine Smelter is the best in the world. It only takes less than an hour for a ton of silver ore to be poured into the mold from the end of silver water (the remaining cooling does not require the furnace time to take up the furnace time).
In other words, if a smelter can work for twelve hours a day in two shifts, a furnace can produce almost ten kilograms of silver a day (calculated by 800 grams of silver per ton, it can produce more than nine kilograms in twenty-four hours), that is, twenty kilograms, one kilogram is sixteen taels, that is, three hundred and twenty taels of silver, and nine thousand six hundred taels a month. That is to say, even if it is smelting 100,000 taels of silver, it only takes ten furnaces to work for a month.
There are hundreds of furnaces in the entire smelter, and Gong Qin is the factory manager, so it is definitely okay to draw a few furnaces alone. The problem is that there are many people and forces involved in the silver mine, one and two... Each of them has their own furnaces in the smelter. It can be said that these furnaces are customized by themselves. There are actually no more than twenty furnaces belonging to Li Zhen alone, and the rest are divided up by major forces.
Now that the forces behind the Qin Captain want to increase the silver production, the only way is to increase their furnace number. However, the entire smelter only has so many furnaces. If you want to increase your furnace, you can only occupy Li Zhen's furnace - the rest of the families have dumped silver on Gong Qin. Although each family is respectful to him, that is because they have something to ask for him. Without this, in their eyes, a small Gong Qin would not even be considered a fart?
It can be imagined that once Gong Qin dares to reduce their silver production, they may not be allowed to be torn apart and make the matter public. Even if the power behind Captain Qin protects him, he will be unable to escape Li Zhen's anger... Of course, the greater possibility is that they will abandon themselves as soon as possible, leaving only themselves to bear Li Zhen's anger, and then be killed by the angry Li Zhen and vent their anger.
And even if Li Zhen doesn't take action, those who were fooled by him will definitely cause trouble for him. At that time, his fate may be worse than that in Li Zhen's hands. After all, Li Zhen is the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty. Even if he dealt with it, he will command to play according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty. However, those hidden forces in the dark do not follow such rules. They will definitely use the most cruel means to deal with him.
