Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 455 A mine falls from the sky

Suet jade!
Lu Yuancheng paused, this is the favorite jade species of the official family.

Shopkeeper Shan was even more delighted. Although mutton-fat jade was no rarer in color than blood jade and purple jade, it was the favorite of wealthy people. Especially the high-quality mutton-fat jade, there was no need to worry about selling it.

What's more, it is the best mutton-fat jade, even if it is used as a store treasure, it is also qualified!
"It's not a waste of hard work to get these two pieces of jade." Lu Yuancheng turned to look at Wen Shu, "Luckily you have a keen eye, otherwise such good jade would have been lost in the mountains."

Wen Shu gently placed his hand on the stone and said modestly: "This is your blessing. If you hadn't believed in me and decided to dig, these two pieces of good jade would have been lost in the mountains."

Lu Yuancheng stood up with a smile, "Everyone's lucky, let's go, there are still two mines, I have to worry about you."

"What the adults said, it should be, it should be."

Seeing Lu Yuancheng turn around and go to the carriage with Shopkeeper Shan and others, Wen Shu quickly put the piece of top-quality blood jade under his hand into the storage basket.

Of course she won't treat herself badly after a hard work!
Although she was invited by Mr. Lu, this pile of rubble was not within the scope of the investigation. If she hadn't pointed it out, no one would have dug through this pile of rubble.

However, they can see the light of day again, and it is indeed thanks to Mr. Lu's decision.

Otherwise, in front of so many people, she would not be able to do anything amazing, so she would have to bear the pain and give up her love.

As for picking it up in the future, she probably won’t have time to come here again.

Wen Shu sighed and walked towards the carriage.

When the carriage started again, it was almost noon. Fortunately, the other two jade mines were not far away, also in Gulou County, and the two jade mines were still connected together.

About half an hour later, the carriage took them to their destination.

Unfortunately, the two jade mines are much smaller than the previous one, and the transportation is not convenient. The carriage has to stop at the official road far away, and the remaining trails can only be walked.

It had just rained yesterday, and the road under the shade of the trees was still a bit muddy. Wen Shu walked lightly, fearing that he would accidentally step into a puddle.

After going to the jade mine to investigate, she was even more helpless.

The stone materials in these two jade mines are no different from the previous one, and even in some areas they are inferior.

After she told the truth to Lu Yuancheng, she didn't see any serious expression on his face. He just replied lightly, "I know." Then she made her way back.

So calm? !Wen Shu was a little surprised.

After coming all this way and getting nothing, shouldn't there be some loss?

Or rather, the two stones just made up for this loss.

However, the other party didn't say anything. Although Wen Shu was curious, he didn't feel comfortable asking.

On the way back, we still have to pass through the muddy path.Wen Shu remained as cautious as when he came and kept looking down at the road.

But halfway through, the water in the puddle suddenly started to slosh!
Wen Shu's heart skipped a beat, could it be?
As soon as the thought came to an end, several loud rumblings were heard, and then the shaking of the ground became more intense.

Oops, it was an earthquake!
Just when she was wondering if she should find a tree to hug, Lu Yuancheng suddenly rushed over and pulled her towards the rice field next to her.

Not long after they got off the rice field, a bunch of rocks rolled down the cliff and hit the spot where they were standing.

Wen Shu, who turned around and saw this scene, said to himself: What a danger!

He almost got hit!
At this time, two brothers, shopkeeper Shan and Liu Zhang and Liu Sheng, also gathered around.Because the coachman wanted to watch the carriage, he stood alone on the official road and did not come with them.

"Is everything okay?" Lu Yuancheng asked everyone.

The three shook their heads at the same time.

Lu Yuancheng began to look around again, and after a moment, he said: "Step back again, and retreat to the middle."

There are mountain walls on both sides of the rice field, and the position they are standing on is closer to the mountain wall on the left, which is the direction from which the rocks fell.

Lu Yuancheng asked them to move back because he was afraid that after the earthquake, there would be rocks falling from above and it would be too late for them to run away.Several people didn't hesitate and ran after him.I didn't stop until I reached the middle of the rice field, about the same distance from the left and right walls.

At this time, the earthquake continued, and people working in the fields gathered together in panic.

From the direction of the official road, there were waves of cattle and horses neighing.

Rocks kept rolling down the two mountain walls. Lu Yuancheng looked in the direction of the official road, wondering what he was thinking.

Wen Shu was worried about whether Father Wen, who was far away in the capital, had been affected.

They still have somewhere to hide in this wild and empty mine. There are a lot of houses in Bianjing City. If there is an earthquake, the houses will collapse and many people will be injured.

Thinking of this, she was very eager to go back.

Just as she was raising her feet to walk towards the official road, a piece of rock rolled down from the mountain wall and rushed towards her at an extremely fast speed.

At the same time, the system in my mind sounded a piercing alarm! 【alarm!alarm!Danger is approaching! 】

No way!Wen Shu has heard this siren sound for at least ten times.

As early as the earthquake happened and she was dragged to this rice field by Mr. Lu, she activated the danger alarm function in time.

The thing to guard against is not being able to detect danger in time when you are distracted.

However, this function also has a disadvantage, that is, it will sound an alarm whenever something comes within 100 meters of her, whether it is a person or an object.

Just now when Brother Liu Sheng and others approached, the system also issued an alarm.

If you hear this kind of alarm too much, you will easily lose your alertness.

Just like now, when Wen Shu heard the alarm again, his vigilance was not as high as it was at the beginning. He thought that another rock had rolled into the detection range, and he was still thinking about how to get back.

She didn't react until the rocks rolled nearby and hit her ankles!

When I looked down, I saw it was a black stone as big as a palm!

The stone rolled down from a high place and followed the inertia all the way to her feet. The force that hit her feet was actually not very strong.

Although the pain was a bit painful, it didn't hurt my muscles or bones.

However, at this moment, Wen Shu was feeling angry for no apparent reason. The stone was particularly unpleasant to his eyes, so he picked it up and threw it back.

As soon as my hand touched the stone, the system sounded a prompt:
[Beep, the species identification scan is turned on, the current object: jade, containing 80% purple jade, quality: excellent! 】

Wen Shu's hand paused in mid-air!
Purple jade!There is purple jade here!
At this time, the shaking earth suddenly became quiet, and everything seemed to be stable again.

Lu Yuancheng turned around and saw her dazed holding up a stone, and couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing?"

"No, nothing?"

Wen Shu came back to his senses, but his eyes still glanced at the mountain wall in front of him from time to time.

"The earthquake has stopped and it's getting dark. Let's return to the city as soon as possible." Lu Yuancheng said, taking the lead to walk towards the official road.

Wen Shu was troubled, should she say it?
Let's face it, some of them are too aggressive and not conducive to hiding one's clumsiness.

Not to mention, she was short of money.

That's a whole mine!Not only is the jade quality excellent, but it is also large in scale, twice as big as the first jade mine.Because the location is on a mountain, mining and transportation may be more troublesome than on flat land and require a lot of labor.

She is in short supply of labor, so she wonders if she can cooperate with Mr. Lu to make money and split the money [-]-[-].
