Also traveling with them was Xu Ce, who knew the situation on the mountains outside Ancheng very well.

Ordinary people go to the mountains to find food, and most often go to the mountainside. They generally do not risk going to the top of the mountain.

But Xu Ce deliberately climbed to the top of the mountain in order to get in touch with lightning.

He also compiled the mountains, rivers and lakes he visited over the years into a book and gave it to Su Manrong.

I have to say that he is a very successful traveler. With him, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

"Husband, what do you think of Mu Yan?"

Through the car window, Su Manrong looked at Mu Yan riding a horse alongside Xu Ce, and felt that her heroic appearance was really admirable.

The temperament revealed by Mu Yan is not comparable to that of rouge, gouache, or Zhu Chai.

"If she were not a staff member of Magistrate Xie, I would definitely keep her in the 50th Guards."

Xiao Chengxian followed Su Manrong's gaze and felt that Mu Yan's words and deeds were really suitable for being an agent...

“Not bad, not bad.”

Su Manrong nodded repeatedly, thinking that to get such a pertinent evaluation from Xiao Chengxian, Mu Yan was really an excellent helper.

When the group came to the foot of the mountain, they changed their cumbersome clothes into light clothes.

Su Manrong hadn't really climbed a mountain yet, so she thought it didn't matter what shoes she wore when going up the mountain.

If you go down a mountain and wear these ancient hand-made cloth shoes, your big toe will definitely lean forward and squeeze out of shape.

So I put on all-white hiking shoes. Since they are all white shoes, they don’t look too blinky.

Xiao Chengxian wore all-black hiking shoes, which matched his clothes perfectly.

As for the others... Su Manrong and Xiao Chengxian can't help. They can't come up with so many pairs of shoes at once...

"Grand Master Su, I heard from Magistrate Xie, does Grand Master mean to close the mountain?"

Mu Yan originally walked at the front of the team with Xu Ce.

However, after walking a stick of incense, Su Manrong's footsteps slowed down and he put some distance between himself and the team in front.

Mu Yan seemed to realize that he was walking too fast, so he trotted alongside Su Manrong and asked him a question.

"If there is ore on the mountain, of course the mountain must be closed. People only know that the ore is valuable, but they do not know that unrefined ore contains radiation and is harmful to the human body.

If they collect these ores as treasures, it will probably affect their health.

What's more, these ores have not been purified and are actually not valuable.ωωw..net

In addition, the wild vegetables in the mountains can indeed fill your stomach, but living off wild vegetables year after year is still not an option.

The imperial court has allocated funds to many cities for disaster relief and purchased grain from the northern border.

They all wait for the national mourning to end, and the imperial court will definitely protect every city.

Therefore, closing the mountains is a good policy. If the government provides them with jobs, it will naturally provide them with food."

Su Manrong nodded, sweat was spreading on his forehead, and he felt that his physical strength was getting weaker and weaker recently.

In modern times, she was a regular at the gym. After arriving in ancient times, she was exiled so far on foot that her body did not even break.

I don’t know why lately, I’ve become so pretentious. I don’t have the energy to move inward anymore. I either stay in the car or go back to my space to sit and rest.

Anyway, she felt that she had fallen and gained weight...

"I see, Mu Yan has learned a lesson."

Hearing this, Mu Yan nodded with admiration: "Before, I just thought that the people were cutting down trees indiscriminately and wasting unnecessary use, so I suggested that you seal the mountain.

Taishi Su is people-oriented and considers the health of the people.

It's Mu Yan who feels ashamed."

"When Miss Mu considers natural resources, she also considers the people. If we continue to deforestation without considering future generations, we will sooner or later be left with nothing."

Su Manrong shook her head, raised her lips and smiled.

After just a simple exchange, she was even more sure that she liked Mu Yan's character.

"Prefect Xie and I came to the mountain to inspect the terrain before, but we never found any ore.

I just heard Brother Xu say that he discovered the ore because lightning shattered the rock."

Mu Yan has also heard about the silver mines in Qianzhou. If Ancheng also has gold and silver mines, then Ancheng will definitely be the next Qianzhou!

"Yes, most of the ore is buried. If you don't look for it intentionally, you will definitely not be able to see it with the naked eye."

Su Manrong nodded: "Looking at your appearance, you don't look like a northerner."

"I am from Huainan, have you heard of Longmen Escort Agency?"

Mu Yan introduced himself very respectfully: "I used to be the eldest lady of the Longmen Escort Bureau, but my parents passed away during the natural disaster.

The escort agency was taken over by my uncle, so I ran away from the escort agency and headed north.

When I met Magistrate Xie opening the city gates to allow refugees to enter the city, I decided to stay in Ancheng, a city with a human touch."

Longmen Escort Agency?

Su Manrong only felt that this name was very familiar and she should know it.

Just for a moment...

I remembered it! When the Longmen Escort Bureau was responsible for escorting the Su family's property from their hometown to Dekang City, they happened to stop at the inn where the exile team settled, and she carried it away...

Later, the exile team came to Jinyuan again, and she also took away the disaster silver that the three mine owners had given to the tyrant Sheng Kandi.

At that time, she thought that Saint Conde would not use the disaster money on the refugees, so after receiving the disaster money in the space, she replaced it with the same amount of supplies and kept dropping them on the exile road.

Anyway, she could swear that all the disaster money she got was spent on the refugees, and it wasn't just the disaster money, she also used a lot of her own savings to help the refugees.

At that time, I was only concerned about the refugees and forgot that her robbery of the escort's money was not just a matter of failure for the Longmen Escort Agency.

Was it because of two consecutive misses that Mu Yan's father was forced to lay off his job and was assassinated?

Su Manrong swallowed and felt an unknown emotion rushing towards Tianling Gai.

If Mu Yan's parents died because of her actions, then she would really have become a murderer.

"Then why your parents died? Was it because something went wrong with the escort agency..."

Su Manrong didn't even dare to look directly into Mu Yan's eyes...

"Because of natural disasters. During that time, there were constant natural disasters. My parents were old and the weather was hot and cold, so they fell ill.

In addition, due to the impact of natural disasters at that time, many medicines could not be found, so there was a delay."

When Mu Yan talked about the death of his parents, he only felt sad for a moment, but his eyes were full of determination the next second.

"My parents taught me a lot, and I am not a weak girl. After they left, I couldn't be sad every day.

I want to do what I like to do, and bless everyone like my parents did."

"Your parents will definitely be very pleased to see you so strong."
