Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious
Chapter 653: Sold for 32,000 Yuan
Captain Li and Captain Fang waved their hands and made a decisive decision for the head of the family: they wanted all the stones.
There were a total of over 3 million taels of raw stones. The stronger Jiang family took away goods worth 1.8 million taels, and the remaining 1.2 million taels were taken by the Lu family.
Then they picked out a bunch of stones to make up the number.
They originally came for an investigation, but there were only a few people and the transportation capacity was insufficient. However, they did not want to wait any longer, so as not to stay here all night and cause trouble. So they simply borrowed a team from Qiao Jianer. Qiao Jianer was very generous and sent twenty soldiers to each of them, and also provided freight carriages.
The two of them did not stay long and set off immediately.
The owner of the house would definitely be very happy to see such goods. Moreover, they did not bring enough silver notes, and each family still owed a large part, so they wrote IOUs. Miss Shui chose to trust them without hesitation, and they were very moved by such sincerity.
As long as there is enough supply here, I will only ask the water girl for stones in the future.
The 1.3 million taels of silver notes in his hand were so heavy that Qiao Lian'er could hardly hold it. He felt a little emotional. It would be too easy to make money if he took over the mine.
To be on the safe side, she also let two carrier pigeons follow the team back to Daze State, so that if the situation changed, the thoughts would be conveyed at the first time.
As long as the cooperation with the gambling stone family becomes stable, there will be opportunities to make large sums of money in the future.
After the most expensive stones in this partition were emptied, Qiao Jianer replenished them with a large number of stones worth a thousand taels.
She went back to the mining site every day to take a look. These hundreds of residents were not only mining, they also had their own responsibilities. Some were responsible for digging mountains and rocks, some were responsible for cleaning rocks, some were responsible for carrying soil, and some were responsible for preventing danger. When they saw the danger of large rocks rolling down or soil collapsing, they would take the lead in eliminating it. Of course, their wages were also a little higher. Ensuring safety was the top priority, and no one had any objections.
The mining has been open for several days, and there has not been any safety accident in Qiao Jianer's mining area.
In the past, in the mining areas of warlords and wealthy businessmen, people were killed every few days under high frequency conditions. The village here originally had a population of about a thousand people, but in the past ten years alone, three or four hundred people have died. If people had not been born and children had not grown up, the fate waiting for these indigenous people would have been genocide.
Looking at the residents' completely different mental state, no longer looking sad or frightened, but instead with a positive outlook, Qiao Jianer felt an indescribable comfort.
She is making money for herself and saving these residents.
"Sister Shui."
A little girl of about six or seven ran over, holding a large blue and white flower in her hand. She said proudly, "The adults said that this kind of flower only grows in our country of Puchen. I finally found one and I'm giving it to Sister Shui."
While the adults were working, the children were playing all over the mountain, running around everywhere. The mine was filled with laughter and vitality.
After saying that, the little girl blinked her eyes as if she was afraid that Qiao Jianer didn't understand.
Qiao Lian'er took the flower. There was a golden pistil in the middle with a faint fragrance. She liked it very much. She gave the little girl a thumbs up and then took out a piece of silver from her sleeve.
The little girl shook her head, smiled at her playfully, and ran away, which made Qiao Jianer stunned for a moment.
Such a passionate, simple soul is like an elf between heaven and earth.
A soldier came up with Dan Suo and reported to her: "Miss Shui, we have observed for several days and none of these residents have taken away stones without permission."
Qiao Jian'er did not assign this task to them, because valuable stones could not escape her eyes. These residents stayed in the mountains all day long and had lunch in the mountains. She only needed to scan the dug stones with space instruments to determine whether they were valuable.
The soldiers mainly served as a deterrent, warning the warlords and wealthy businessmen not to take advantage of her.
However, in their view, supervising these residents is also one of their responsibilities.
Qiao Jian'er thought for a moment and said, "Down below, in the relatively flat area, set up a waste rock area. Everyone can take one piece back every day. The selection will be done randomly to maintain order and avoid any scrambles."
The waste stones are worthless to her, and are used to make up the numbers for the gambling stone families. However, for the local residents, they can accumulate a considerable fortune over the years, which is enough to change their destiny.
The military leader agreed and took his men to do it.
Dan Suo followed Qiao Jianer all the way up the mountain, his eyes bright, his steps fast, and he exuded more energy than before.
Qiao Jianer did not let Dan Suo and his sister mine, but instead arranged work for them in the warehouse area. Dan Suo was responsible for supervision and command, placing the raw stones in the warehouse, and Xida cleaned the room for her.
But Suo no longer needed to translate for those warlords and wealthy businessmen, so he suffered less anger. However, when Qiao Jianer needed a translator, he could do the job.
"Miss Shui, the villagers said that the mine you bought still has a lot of good stones. They can see it. Congratulations." Dan Suo was very happy, not only for Qiao Jianer, but also for the smooth development here. Soon, his sister would be able to go to the capital.
"Yeah, I was just taking a gamble, and luckily I won." Qiao Jian'er knew what he was thinking and said, "When the caravan I trust the most arrives, I'll let Xida go with them to Daze Country."
It was estimated that Captain Tang and his men should have arrived in the capital a few days earlier, but when she returned to the capital, she had not seen them yet. There must have been some minor problems on the road. It was such a long journey, and the rainy season was about to begin. Some places had arrived early, so it was normal to encounter mountain road collapses or be attacked by the flu and have to stay. As long as they did not encounter difficult bandits, everything would be fine.
At this time, a soldier ran up the hill, bowed to Qiao Jianer, and then said a few words to Dan Suo.
Dan Suo's cheerful face froze for a moment, and he said, "Miss Shui, Uncle Yin wants me to go over there. His people are waiting at the foot of the mountain."
Qiao Jian'er's tone was cold. "You don't have to translate for others anymore. You're my worker now. I'll pay you a fixed salary, which is different from before. I think Uncle Yin should know the difference."
Dan Suo said sullenly, "I know many languages, but there are always some caravan languages that others cannot translate, so—"
"Miss Qiao, Uncle Yin is the most powerful warlord here. He asked me to go, so I have to go. But don't worry, there are some things I will never tell you."
"Go ahead, say what you need to say. It's okay to say it." Qiao Jian'er knew that he couldn't make the decision and was afraid of implicating her.
If it was just a translation, that would be fine, but she believed that Uncle Yin's idea was not that simple.
Qiao Jianer put on an invisibility cloak and went to Uncle Yin first.
