At this time, Japan was still in the shogunate era, ruled by the Fujiwara clan. It was basically in a state of isolation and rarely communicated with the outside world.

Gu Tingyu had no plan to communicate with Fuso. He used to be a miner, so who was in power had nothing to do with him.

Of course, it’s okay if you don’t provoke him, but if you do, then you’ll have to deal with him.

Gu Tingyu's target this time was Iwami Silver Mine. The output of this silver mine was very high and it was also very famous in later generations, so Gu Tingyu naturally took it as his target.

However, Iwami Silver Mine has not been discovered or developed yet, so Gu Tingyu will need to find it himself when the time comes.

After sailing for a period of time, Gu Tingyu and others finally arrived in Fuso and landed in the southwest of Honshu Island.

This is also the location of Iwami Ginzan in Gu Tingyu's memory.

Now this place is still a deserted place, surrounded by towering mountains.

After landing, Gu Tingyu led more than 400 people to build a temporary residence. After all, these people still need to live.

After that, Gu Tingyu sent a lot of people out from the temporary residence every day to search for the location of Iwami Silver Mine.

There were also some lords of all sizes around, and the people sent out by Gu Tingyu also recorded them all.

By then, all these people will be the source of miners. After all, there are only more than 400 of them, and it is certainly impossible for them to mine by themselves.

Don't talk about human rights at this time, it's just the law of the jungle.

The arrival of Gu Tingyu and others also attracted the attention of the locals here. However, facing the regular army brought by Gu Tingyu, which was carrying complete weapons and equipment, they were directly attacked by a dimensionality reduction attack.

Gu Tingyu did not order the soldiers to kill these guys who came to harass him. Instead, they were all captured. They would be the source of labor once Iwami Silver Mine was found.

In the first few days, the progress was not very fast. After all, this place had not been developed before, and it was very difficult to walk in the jungle. The soldiers also needed to adapt to the environment here.

Gu Tingyu was not in a hurry and just proceeded step by step.

Later, after starting to contact the surrounding lords, the progress became significantly faster.

It was not until Li Tieniu and his team discovered the silver mine in a gathering place of a small lord and interrogated them that they learned the specific location of Iwami Silver Mine.

the next day.

After having breakfast, Gu Tingyu took Li Tieniu and others back to their previous location.

"Master, this is the position after yesterday's interrogation."

"Well, okay, let's spread out and check to see if there are any more such ores."

Gu Tingyu looked around but couldn't tell if this was the place. After all, this place had been developed in later generations and it was completely invisible now.

When the soldiers heard Gu Tingyu's arrangements, they immediately dispersed.

Time passed little by little, and soon the soldiers came back. As more and more soldiers came back, they also brought back a lot of ore.

Gu Tingyu checked and found that it was basically silver ore, it was just a matter of content. He breathed a sigh of relief knowing that he had finally found the location this time.

"Okay, we finally found the location. Let's go. We'll go back today and come back tomorrow to start building a residence."

"Yes."

The soldiers around also heard Gu Tingyu's words and smiled happily on their faces.

During the past half month or so, they have really suffered a lot. Having to hide in the woods every day is really not something that ordinary people can endure.

At night, at the temporary residence by the sea, everyone cheered when they heard Gu Tingyu say that they had found the location of Iwami Silver Mine.

As long as we find the location and more and more silver is mined, everyone will be rewarded.

Because of this good news, Gu Tingyu arranged for someone to prepare a celebration banquet.

The chef we brought with us did his best to prepare a lot of delicious food, especially seafood.

All the soldiers and craftsmen also had the meal, and Gu Tingyu did not skimp on the food himself.

This also made the soldiers and craftsmen feel respected, and they recognized Gu Tingyu more.

 …

Early the next morning.

Gu Tingyu left fifty soldiers here to guard, and brought the rest of the people to yesterday's location.

The residence had been chosen yesterday, so the craftsmen started working as soon as they arrived.

Because this is an official residence, it certainly cannot be dealt with casually, and Gu Tingyu also arranged for the soldiers to go out and cut down trees.

Seeing that the residence had begun to be built, Gu Tingyu was also ready to start his second step.

Although some people had harassed him before and nearly a hundred people had been arrested, these people were totally insufficient for mining.

And he didn't come here to kill, so Gu Tingyu began to arrange people who could speak Japanese to follow the soldiers to visit the surrounding lords.

Half a month passed like this, and the settlement had begun to take shape. Gu Tingyu asked people to gather these lords over.

When these lords saw the majestic soldiers in their residence, they were so scared that they dared not leave.

When they heard Gu Tingyu say that he needed their help in providing miners, these guys all said there was no problem.

After all, for them, the death of these untouchables below has nothing to do with them.

Afterwards, when Gu Tingyu said that he could provide them with daily necessities and medicines, the lords' eyes became red with excitement.

Originally, these people were extremely envious when they saw the soldiers around them wearing the clothes they envied. Now that they heard that they could have the same clothes, Gu Tingyu became much more powerful in their hearts.

In order to get more, some people even wanted to give their daughters to Gu Tingyu.

However, after seeing it, Gu Tingyu almost vomited. It was not because she looked ugly, but because she rarely took a shower and the smell on her body was really unbearable.

When the lord saw that Gu Tingyu disagreed, he was a little disappointed, but after hearing the supplies that Gu Tingyu promised, he left happily.

After that, some people were sent here one after another.

Gu Tingyu did not feel disappointed when he saw that all the refugees sent there were skinny and bony. After all, this was something he had expected.

They didn't look like they could work right away, so Gu Tingyu didn't ask them to start working right away and just provided them with full meals for the first few days.

At this point, all the refugees around knew about it and quickly rushed over.

Some of the refugees who had arrived earlier started working one after another. Although it was very tiring, at least they could get enough to eat.

The surrounding lords also lived the life they dreamed of through this incident. They even dared to eat a few more bites of breakfast. In order to have a better life, these people also began to organize warriors to plunder people from outside.

The smelter also began to smelt silver ore. By the time the first piece of silver smelted in Fusang came out, it was already the third month since Gu Tingyu arrived in Fusang.
