Chapter 2146 Generous loot
"Oh my God!"
Early the next morning, a shout came from Li Shen's carriage.
Shitou quickly got into the car and opened the door.
"My lord, what are your orders?"
Li Shen was seen rubbing his head with a frown on his face.
"You bastard, what kind of wine did you give me to drink? Why does I have a headache?"
"Your Highness, what you drank yesterday was girl's red wine." Shitou replied quickly.
"Daughter's red wine? Why does this prince have a headache?
It seems that this daughter is not considerate and warm at all."
When Li Shen heard that it was daughter’s red wine, he rubbed his head and complained.
It's a girl's red wine, but it's not red at all, and a little bit black.
"Your Highness, that..." Shitou looked at Li Shen's head and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Just fart if you have to. Stop hesitating." Li Shen cursed.
"Your Highness, the headache may not be related to the alcohol. Did Your Highness hit his head?"
Shi Tou took a half step back and spoke cautiously.
"What did you say?" Li Shen was stunned, then he touched it carefully.
"Fuck, go get me a mirror."
Li Shen touched his forehead and suddenly felt like his head was really hurting. Shi Tou quickly took out a mirror and Li Shen took a closer look.
I noticed that there was some redness on my forehead and cheekbones.
Li Shen immediately looked around and finally found a golden knife on the side, the golden knife his father gave him.
Li Shen looked up at the place where the golden knife was hung, then looked down at the end, feeling a lingering fear.
Damn, it’s a luck that I just hit it. If I had cut my neck, it would have been so unfair for me to die.
It seems that I really can't drink this wine anymore. It's too dangerous. Last time I drank too much in Cuiwei Palace, I didn't even know that my father had beaten me up.
Today I played with weapons.
"You bastard, why didn't you guard me when I was sleeping? What if I cut my face?
Luckily, I didn’t get disfigured, otherwise I would have kicked you to death. Hurry up and get some water. I’m about to get up.”
Even though the mistake is your own, someone has to take responsibility.
After Li Shen cursed the stone, he felt a little better.
After washing up, Li Shen ate something. Since he had nothing to do, Li Shen went to the camp for inspection.
There were no more corpses here, and all the broken limbs had been cleaned up. Li Shen went directly to the seized supplies.
There are all kinds of weapons and soft armor, as well as bows and crossbows piled up here.
On the other side were bags of food.
Li Shen walked around these things and came to where the treasure was stored.
"Rengui, have you sent someone to count the things?"
Li Shen turned around and replied to Xue Rengui.
"Your Highness, there has been no inventory." Xue Rengui replied.
"Oh, let me take a look." Li Shen opened a box, which was full of copper coins.
Li Shen was immediately uninterested, as this box of copper coins only contained a hundred strings of coins.
"Someone, open all the boxes."
Looking at dozens of boxes, Li Shen lost his patience and immediately ordered the guards to go forward and open all the boxes.
"Eh~~~"
After looking through a dozen boxes, Li Shen saw something that interested him.
There were black stones of different sizes in the box. Li Shen walked up and picked one up to examine it carefully.
"Iron ore!" Li Shen was a little surprised.
No wonder, the imperial court had such strict control over iron, yet these rebels still had weapons.
He originally thought it was an internal problem, but now it seems not to be. These minerals explain everything.
Li Shen took a look and found that there were more than a dozen boxes of iron ore here, which they probably planned to take back for ironmaking.
These rebels did not have advanced mining technology, so it must have taken a lot of effort for them to get these ores.
"It's over." Li Shen suddenly shouted.
"What's wrong with your Highness?" Xue Rengui asked doubtfully.
"We killed everyone, and no one knows where the mine is. Oh, I'm late. I should have come earlier."
Li Shen slapped his thigh in regret. You have to dig a mine yourself. No matter how rich you are, you can't compare to those who have a mine at home.
"Your Majesty, I think since these rebels are here, the mineral deposit should be nearby. Why not send some people to search around? Maybe we can find it."
Xue Rengui helplessly suggested that his prince was too sensitive about money.
"Okay, let's have someone search for it immediately. But I'm afraid it won't be easy to find. If I were the leader of the rebels, I would have them block and cover up the mine after mining."
Li Shen sighed in his heart, it seems that this is the only way. At present, steel is very important to his development.
There are also various rare metal mines that are very useful.
After giving the order, Li Shen continued to check, but most of the items in the next box were jade, and some were gold.
"My lord, look."
Just then, Stone in the front pointed at the last few boxes and exclaimed.
Li Shen hurried forward to check, and his eyes lit up.
"Damn, gold mine!" Several large boxes of gold mine.
The gold smelted from these gold mines naturally cannot make Li Shen so excited. His value does not lie in the gold mine itself.
Li Shen was thinking that there was actually a gold mine here, so wouldn’t he be rich?
"It's over." Li Shen shouted again.
"Your Highness, what's the matter?" Xue Rengui asked hurriedly. Who could stand such a sudden shock?
“With so many rebels running away, they might reveal the existence of the gold mine.
Oh, if I had known this would happen, I should have found a way to catch them all at once."
Li Shen regretted again. He should have killed all these rebels earlier to prevent the news from leaking out.
“Rengui, send people out in the next two days to search everywhere to see if they can find gold and iron mines.
And give orders not to tell anyone what happened here."
Li Shen made a prompt decision and sent someone to investigate first. If he couldn't find it, he would send someone over quietly later.
This place is remote, uninhabited area and unknown to anyone.
"Yes, I will pass the order immediately." Xue Rengui said and walked out.
"Come on, let's see what other good stuff we have."
After checking the box, Li Shen was in a good mood and started searching through the supplies like he was shopping on Taobao.
Various gems, jades, and gold accessories from the Western Regions, silk, porcelain, tea, and jewelry from the Tang Dynasty, and even glassware produced in the Prince Ji’s Palace.
There are also many medicinal herbs.
"I've made a fortune this time. These things must be worth at least hundreds of thousands of strings of cash, right?"
Li Shen said happily while holding a medicinal herb. Li Shen had seen the medicinal herb in his previous life. It was Cistanche deserticola, which had the effect of nourishing the kidneys.
"Your Majesty, this harvest is enough to make up for all the expenses of our trip to Xizhou."
Shi Tou was also picking and choosing on the side.
“Hahaha, this is not important. If I can find out the location of the gold mine, then Prince Ji’s Mansion won’t have to borrow money to survive.
This king can also retire from the world and stop doing things that go against his conscience."
Li Shen laughed three times. He was really planning to retire from the underworld.

The mineral veins in the Tianshan Mountains are mainly iron and copper, while the gold mines are in the Altai Mountains.)
