Zhang Rang led Lin Mu down the stairs while talking.
"General Lin Mu, this mission is very important, and Your Majesty attaches great importance to it. During the Heavenly Dao verification, Heavenly Dao reported that you are very consistent with the mission conditions regarding China's national strength, special reputation, etc. Although this mission did not support you with too much property and manpower, but these rare illustrations and treasures are the best support." Zhang Rang whispered.
"Yes! I understand!" Lin Mu said forcefully.
Indeed, Liu Hong takes this task very seriously. Otherwise, these things would not be taken out.
Some people would rather the treasure rot in the treasure house than let it spread out. I have never heard of the treasury of the Han Dynasty before, and there may be very few players or officials entering it.
"Your Majesty promises that if you can quickly bring the Dragon Vein back to China, you will be promoted to the rank of General of the Wei Kingdom and the title of County Marquis!" Zhang Rang said in a lower tone.
General Weiguo among the second-grade generals? ! And the county marquis title? !
Liu Hong really spent a lot of money! !
However, I wonder if it’s worth exchanging these things for a wild dragon vein? Lin Mu couldn't think of anything for the time being, so he would discuss the situation with Guo Jia and the others later.
However, he coveted the position of General Weiguo and the title of County Marquis.
"Master Marquis, if I really find the dragon vein, how will I bring it back?" Lin Mu also asked in a low voice.
"Your Majesty will give you a tool for this matter when you go on an expedition. The tool is still being built! Unfortunately... due to the lack of the Nine-Star Dragon Suppressing Stone, the process is very slow, but it may be completed before you go to sea!" Zhang Rang murmured.
Nine-star dragon stone? Jiuxing Zhenlongzhu?
When Lin Mu heard this, his heart suddenly moved.
"You can suggest that your Majesty issue a mission to foreigners or Han people to find this object. Maybe it will be faster! I am prepared to cooperate with some nobles and foreigners for ships going out to sea..." Lin Muyi suggested.
"This..." Zhang Rang felt a little strange when he heard this.
"Oh...could it be that the Marquis is responsible for this matter?" Lin Mu said leisurely.
"That's right! Your Majesty has given full authority to this matter to me. I have been troubled by this matter recently, and even changed some county and city taxes to stone, wood, etc." Zhang Rang nodded.
I see! No wonder the previous taxes were not collected from money, but from resources such as wood and stone.
"Master Marquis, maybe you can use the reward of an official position to complete this matter. Just take the position of prefect and let those people fight for it like crazy!" Lin Mu suggested with a thought in his heart.
"The position of governor?!" A look of pain appeared on Zhang Rang's face. The position of a prefect is a lucrative one. Even the position of a prefect on the border can be sold for a large price!
"Master Marquis, you can reward me with the position of governor of some remote places in Jiaozhou..." Lin Mu said meaningfully.
"Of course, this is a last resort. If the Marquis can complete it in advance, he might not have to pay this reward." Lin Mu reminded.
"I'll go back and think about this later." Zhang Rang was a little moved.
After that, the two chatted for a while before parting.
Zhang Rang was really satisfied with Lin Mu. He knows how to be a good person, without that kind of thorny attitude, gentle but without losing his attitude. Also, he is a disciple of Xun Shuang and the son-in-law of Cai Yong, so his status is somewhat important!
Looking at the retreating figure, Zhang Rang pondered for a while, then turned and left.
Still following the familiar routine, Lin Mu returned to Zhijinwu's residence at noon the next day.
It was still the rune secret room, but now there were only Xun Shuang and Cai Yong. Xun Yu, Xun You and Xun Cai didn't know where they went.
"Did you get a good illustration?" Xun Shuang looked at the unconcealed joy on Lin Mu's face and laughed softly.
"Yeah! Two illustrations of the Mo family!" Lin Mu nodded.
"Of course, there is an extra surprise. Your Majesty asked me to select a treasure from the treasury." Lin Mu did not tell Zhang Rang about getting a treasure as well.
He can just keep these things to himself.
"Oh? The treasury has a lot of good things in its collection. Of course, if you don't have good eyesight, you might just pick out an ordinary antique!" Cai Yong raised his eyebrows.
"Have the teacher and father-in-law gone in?" Lin Mu asked.
"Uh... no." Hearing this, both of them felt a hint of embarrassment on their faces.
"What did you take out?" Xun Shuang asked.
"The treasure of the intersection of dragon and phoenix, [Nine Heavens Phoenix Hairpin]!" Lin Mu said his name directly without any taboo.
"What? [Nine-Heaven Phoenix Hairpin]?!!! But the [Nine-Heaven Phoenix Hairpin] that the phoenix master of Han Emperor Gaozu was rewarded by heaven and earth?!" Cai Yong was extremely shocked when he heard this.
Of course, the shock this time was not as deep as hearing Lin Mu's nickname.
Why is it gathering dust in the third treasury? Doesn't the Liu family have any relevant information passed down?
Xun Shuang and Cai Yong looked at each other with emotion.
"The Han of Chang'an and the Han of Luoyang have changed too many things!" the two said in unison.
"This is a gift from heaven and earth. It is a spiritual thing. It is covered in dust and obscures its glory. After entering the treasury, I vaguely felt its echo, so I took it!" Lin Mu said solemnly.
He did not say that he sensed other echoes in the treasury.
"Brother Bozhe, Wen Ji is so lucky!" Xun Shuang said enviously.
"About this thing, there are all rumors. Even if it is the real thing in front of me, if we don't know its real name, we will miss it. We will see the details after Wenji puts it on." Cai Yong said with a smile.
"Master Yue Zhang, in fact, this thing requires phoenix power and dragon power to activate..." Lin Mu reminded.

1. [Ruifu]: It can increase the Phoenix Master’s talents, random specialties, and random skills by one level.

4. [Phoenix Lord of Heaven and Earth]:? ? ? ?
Introduction: This object has been obscured by special rules and cannot be activated until the dragon and phoenix sing.
Lin Mu informed the two of them about its attributes.
The two of them were stunned when they heard the names of the attributes. These are the attributes of the special god-level ornaments! Explosive enough!
"This thing should be handed over to Wen Ji as early as possible." Lin Muyi pointed out.
"Haha...you are thinking about your future wife, right?" Xun Shuang heard what Lin Mu meant.
When Lin Mu heard this, he smiled shyly. He was very familiar with Cai Wenji, but he got to know her from other angles. This time, he wanted to get to know Cai Wenji again from the position of her husband, which was completely different!
"Let's go, we're ready, let's go to Cai's Mansion!" Xun Shuang waved his hand again and led the two of them straight to Cai's Mansion.
The three people riding in the same carriage discussed the matter of finding the dragon vein. Xun Shuang and Cai Yong both guessed that this task was not as simple as it seemed!
He began to make various guesses, and Lin Mu also kept these guesses in mind, and would confirm them with Guo Jia after returning home.
…
In a mansion that is not very grand.
"Ding!~~~~~" The sweet sound of the piano echoed in the yard.
The tinkling and crisp sound of the piano is like a clear spring in the mountains, filled with a calming and refreshing charm. On the trees in the courtyard, many birds stayed on the branches, squinting their eyes, as if they were immersed in the sweet sound of the piano.
"Miss!! Miss!! It's coming! It's coming! My uncle is coming!!", a burst of rapid footsteps broke the sweet sound of the piano.
"Deng~deng~~~" The word "Uncle" was like a deer, running around on the chest of the owner of the piano sound, breaking the feeling of joy.
"Sister, didn't you say you had met Lin Mu? Why did you feel so upset when you heard him coming?" At this moment, a tender and teasing voice also sounded.
If Lin Mu were here, he would definitely know who the owner of the voice was—Xun Cai!
"Nv Xun, just laugh at me... I know that when you first met Lin Mu, you shrank your head like a rabbit and had a red face!" came a sweet and crisp voice.
If Lin Mu comes here again, he will also know who the owner of this voice is - Cai Yan and Cai Wenji!
Her hands are like catkins, her skin is like gelatin, and her eyebrows are furrowed. Compared with Xun Cai, Cai Wenji is really, really beautiful and outstanding.
Xun Cai is like the girl next door, while Cai Wenji is like a born noble girl!
"Oh...sister, just laugh at me..." Xun Cai pulled Cai Wenji's arm and said coquettishly.
A blush appeared on Cai Wenji's beautiful face and she smiled.
At this moment, another maid hurriedly walked in and reported to Cai Wenjihui in a low voice: "Miss, those people are here again! They are gathering in the side hall of the north courtyard again."
When Cai Wenji heard this, her beautiful face suddenly condensed.
Those so-called talented men came to visit again? ! How could she not know the purpose of those people? !
But under her father's orders, she already belonged to Lin Mu. Moreover, she did not have any strong feelings of resistance towards Lin Mu, but instead had a faint sense of expectation.
I never thought that an ordinary man whom I met briefly would reach this level!
