Chapter 76 Scouting the Enemy



In his previous life, Zhao Muyun was not born into a science and engineering family. After graduating from high school, he joined the army and served for many years.

Most of the knowledge I learned in high school was returned to the teachers.

Although I learned a lot of survival skills in the army and knew a little about the mining and purification of salt, it was not much.

Many time-travel novels say that the protagonist can go back to ancient times and rub soap and glass with their hands, purify salt, and make ice in summer, as if it is as easy as eating and drinking water.

Knowing is easy, but doing is difficult!

But when you really want to do it yourself, it is not as easy as you imagine.

Therefore, even if Zhao Muyun discovered that this was a salt lake, he did not have the ability to mine it; and he was about to leave, so he had no time.

Bai Shouren had been smuggling salt and iron before, and now he has discovered the existence of lake salt, so he must know how to mine and produce lake salt.

"Since there is salt here, you can discover it. The Wuhuan people have lived here for half a year, so they must have discovered it a long time ago. It's not a secret!" Zhao Muyun said pretending to be indifferent.

"Wait, Zhao Muyun, I admit that the Wuhuan people must have discovered that this is a salt lake. But why don't they mine it?"

"Because the lake salt is poisonous and cannot be eaten directly! The Wuhuan people must have died from it, so they dare not continue mining!"

At this moment, Bai Shouren was even more certain that he could impress Zhao Muyun.

This is the power of mastering core technology, and it is also the opportunity to pull yourself back from the brink of death.

In short, survive first.

"Are you relying on your mining technology to negotiate terms with me?"

Zhao Muyun knew Bai Shouren's thoughts clearly, "I'll do the same thing when I find someone from Shuozhou who knows about mining!"

"Then you have someone ready in front of you, why not use him?"

Bai Shouren blinked his eyes. "The treasure is right in front of us. Who can wait for long?"

"Besides, you've brought someone from Shuozhou, and you don't know when they'll be able to get here, right?"

"I'm here to help you mine lake salt and redeem my life. This deal is a good one."

"This is also deep in the Gobi Desert. Even if I try to escape, I won't be able to get out."

Tang Yanhai was first moved by Bai Shouren: "Boss Zhao, I also think that since there are Wuhuan people watching here, he can't escape. Why not let him work here?"

Zhao Muyun thought about it and felt that this Gobi Desert was a natural prison, and it would be great for Bai Shouren to create value through labor reform here.

"Zhu Zi, go and ask Uncle Kui to come over!"

After a while, Uncle Kui hurried over, and Zhao Muyun asked him about the salt lake alone.

Just as Bai Shouren said, the Wuhuan people had discovered the secret of the lake being half fresh and half salty a long time ago, but after many people died from eating it, they dared not touch it anymore!

The salt that the Wuhuan people ate was secretly bought from the Tartars.

The salt from the Tartars was smuggled over by Bai Shouren.

This world is really a makeshift team!

Unexpectedly, Bai Shouren came directly to get salt for the Wuhuan people.

"Uncle Kui, keep him under control. He'll get you some edible salt from the lake. If he tries to act tricky, you can do whatever you want with him."

Zhao Muyun finally decided to put Bai Shouren here for labor reform!

The Wuhuan people have salt, which means they have a powerful tool to control the Tatar economy, which will definitely come in handy in the future.

Upon hearing that Zhao Muyun did not kill this man but left him to mine lake salt for the Wuhuan people, Uncle Kui was very excited and solemnly stated that he would keep a good watch on Bai Shouren and squeeze out all his value.

So, Bai Shouren temporarily saved his life and got a small bag of coarse salt under the supervision of Zhao Muyun.

Of course, he did not show the key steps to Zhao Muyun, for fear that he would die if Zhao Muyun saw them.

Zhao Muyun was anxious to get his men out of the Gobi Desert and didn't bother with all that.

......

An hour later, everyone walked out of the Gobi Desert and entered the Shulechuan grassland.

When Huan Naxue stepped in here, Sapphire's eyes had turned red.

The Wuhuan people behind him were also extremely excited.

After all, this was where they lived before.

"Nai Xue, do you know the location of those thousands of Dayin slaves that Uncle Kui mentioned?"

Zhao Muyun understood their feelings, but now was not the time to be sad.

"Well! It takes about half a day to ride north!" Huan Naxue calmed down and looked around.

Upon hearing that the journey would only take half a day, Zhao Muyun immediately called Tang Yanhai and Han Zhong to discuss it.

"Since there are thousands of Dayin slaves over there, there must be at least hundreds of Tartars guarding them! If we rush over like this, it would be too reckless!"

"Let's find out the situation first, and then make plans!"

The two of them agreed deeply.

"Boss Zhao, Wang Tiezhu and I will go and investigate first, and you can follow up with the team." Tang Yanhai suggested.

"This time, Wang Tiezhu and I will go first, and you two will follow with your team!"

Zhao Muyun, however, was ready to go in person. "I must personally visit the scene to understand the enemy situation."

"The first battle we're leading these three hundred Karasuma soldiers into must be a great one!"

Seeing that Zhao Muyun was so determined and would not tolerate any doubt, the two of them said nothing more.

After Zhao Muyun gave Huan Naxue a few more instructions, he took Wang Tiezhu on horseback and prepared to leave.

"Boss Zhao, I want to go with you too!" Shi Yong suddenly followed and volunteered.

"We are going to scout the enemy, so the target shouldn't be too big."

Wang Tiezhu spoke on Zhao Muyun's behalf, "Little Stone, once we've investigated the situation, you can just kill the Tartars."

Shi Yong's initiative piqued Zhao Muyun's interest, and he asked, "Shi Yong, why do you want to go with us?"
