At first, Li Chengqian didn't feel anything about Li Tingxue's words.

But the more I thought about it, the more something was wrong.

There's obviously something wrong with this guy's tone...

Li Chengqian turned around and looked at Li Tingxue with a puzzled face: "Sister, why do I feel so uncomfortable when I hear you say this?"

Hearing this, Li Tingxue was stunned for a moment, and then said, "What's wrong with you?"

"Why do I always feel that you are not worried about the overall situation of the war, but are you worried about Gao Zhixing?"

Li Chengqian seemed to have grabbed Li Tingxue's pigtails: "My sister, tell the truth to your brother, are you also interested in Gao Zhixing?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Tingxue's face turned red for the first time.

{Received resentment value +99 from Li Tingxue...}

{Received anger value +99 from Li Tingxue...}

When he first heard about the value of resentment, Li Chengqian was still very happy.

He knew that he seemed to have guessed his sister's thoughts correctly.

But immediately, the system prompt for the second anger value sounded.

The shy expression on Li Tingxue's face had already turned into anger.

Seeing this scene, Li Chengqian subconsciously wanted to run away.

But obviously, it was too late to run away at this time.

I saw Li Tingxue strike like lightning, grabbing Li Chengqian's ears before he was about to escape.

"I said, what are you thinking about in your head?"

"The two armies are fighting now, and you are still thinking about these useless things."

"And what do you mean by saying this? Now you dare to make fun of your sister? Is it because I haven't hit you for a long time and you're used to it?"

Seeing her getting angry, what else could Li Chengqian do?

I can only beg for mercy and beg for mercy.

"Sister, sister, I was wrong..."

"Sister, please let me go, I will never talk nonsense again..."

After hearing this, Li Tingxue finally let go of his ears.

But he didn't forget to kick his ass to vent his anger.

Li Tingxue said with cold eyes: "Hurry up and deploy your troops. Stop talking nonsense when there is nothing wrong."

"Okay, okay..."

Li Chengqian was also helpless.

However, he quickly shifted his attention from Gao Zhixing and Li Tingxue to the entire battlefield.

To be honest, there is no alternative at all except breaking through the Mohe accident.

But the Mohe clan is really difficult to deal with.

If you want to wipe it out within a month, it will be really difficult.

But if he is not eliminated, he will bring endless trouble to the Tang Dynasty.

Li Chengqian thought for a long time but still couldn't come up with a really feasible method.

At this moment, Cheng Hualiang suddenly ran in from outside.

As soon as you took this thing and entered the camp, you accidentally tripped on something and threw it right in front of Li Chengqian.

And the unknown thing he was holding in his hand was hitting the sand table in front of Li Chengqian impartially.

In an instant, sand and soil rose.

Li Chengqian was covered in dust all over his body and face, even in his mouth.

"I said why are you so frizzy?"

Li Chengqian randomly dusted himself off and looked at Cheng Hualiang angrily.

Cheng Huailiang was also a little embarrassed.

He scratched his head and said: "I, I didn't mean it, I just wanted His Highness to see this treasure..."

"baby?"

Li Chengqian lowered his head and saw that a golden object suddenly appeared on the sand table.

this……

Isn't this gold?

Li Chengqian picked up the gold nugget that was as big as his fist.

After looking at it carefully for a while, and then testing it a little, I was sure that this thing was gold.

He looked up at Cheng Hualiang and said, "Where did you find this gold?"

"The soldiers in the kitchen found this from the river outside."

Cheng Huailiang pointed outside the tent.

"Quick, take me over and have a look."

Seeing this, Li Chengqian didn't care about anything else and hurriedly followed Cheng Huailiang and ran out.

There was a creek not far from where their camp was stationed.

On weekdays, the kitchen is where water is collected to cook for the soldiers in the camp.

When Li Chengqian arrived, he took off his shoes and socks and began to writhe in the creek.

Not long after, another piece of gold was found.

The volume of the gold was smaller than what Cheng Huailiang gave him, but it was still priceless according to future generations' estimates.

Seeing this scene, Li Chengqian raised his head and looked up. The stream was so long that the end could not be seen.

He lowered his head and looked down again, pulled two stones in place, and then discovered that the soil under the river bed was almost entirely filled with granular gold slag.

Seeing this, Li Chengqian ran back to the camp barefoot without even thinking about it.

Cheng Huailiang and Li Tingxue were both dumbfounded by this guy's weird behavior.

What's wrong with this guy?

Just found these small amounts of gold, and now it looks like this?

But they are not from the Hereafter.

If they were from later generations, they would naturally know what Li Chengqian was thinking now.

To be honest, after the memories of later generations flooded into his mind, he no longer even thought about fighting.

After all, the gold in front of you is not just a bit of gold, it is probably an entire gold mine...

After entering the camp, Li Chengqian quickly pulled out the map he drew to check his geographical location.

And when he confirmed that his current geographical location was near Mohe in the later world, he jumped up and down with excitement.

He clearly remembered that there was one of the largest gold mines in China right here.

The so-called "three thousand miles of rivers and mountains, edged with gold" describes the coast of Heilongjiang.

The largest gold-producing area along the Heilongjiang River is nothing more than Laojingou in Mohe.

But at the beginning, due to the corruption of the Qing court, the Russians took advantage of the situation and illegally mined more than 200,000 taels of gold in just two years.

Fortunately, the local general reported it to the Qing court, and the court ordered the official opening of a mine here.

But the mining process is very simple and difficult.

After all, Mohe is located at the northern end, far away from the center of the country.

Moreover, it is geographically closer to Russia. If you want to open a mine, the Russians stationed in Mohe must be expelled.

However, the Qing Dynasty was at war with Vietnam and France and had no means of dividing its forces and could not take care of this place. This was one of the reasons.

In addition, there is another important reason. At that time, the corrupt Qing court treasury did not have the funds to develop the Mohe gold mine.

After a period of time like this, during the exploration and inspection, unexpectedly, it was discovered that the veins of the Mohe gold mine were five hundred miles long.

Moreover, there is a large amount of gold sand in the river.

In the next hundred years, this place became a battleground for many warlords and countries.

But after more than a hundred years of mining, the mine is still not exhausted, which is enough to show the scale of this gold mine.

gold……

This is a real treasure.

For Li Chengqian, this is what he lacks most now.

From the perspective of a man of science and engineering, gold is more than just currency.

It is also an extremely rare precious metal. This thing can show its wonderful uses in the military industry and many fields.

This will definitely be of great help to his subsequent work after he develops the steam engine in the future.

From this, it is not difficult to understand why Li Chengqian was so excited.

He ordered on the spot: "Huai Liang, pass the order and protect this place. No strangers are allowed to enter..."
