System: "A mine was discovered outside the city."

It was really a big news. Everyone was shocked. Even the emperor couldn't help looking at Qin Ruchu again and again.

Whatever the mineral, he needs it. But what kind of mineral is it? Tell me quickly.

Qin Ruchu: "What? Mine? Gold mine? Silver mine?"

Speaking of the latter, she was ready to take action. Now that she knew the truth, she had to dig out more information to fill her own pocket and then report it to the whole gang.

The system looked down on me: "Do you only care about gold and silver?"

Qin Ruchu: "What else? Other mines cannot be used to fill one's own pockets."

I didn't expect you to be this kind of Lord Qin. Everyone was upset.

Even the emperor looked at her with secret dissatisfaction, how could she only think about herself?

System: "I'm sorry to disappoint you. There is iron ore outside the city."

Qin Ruchu was like a mulberry leaf. "Oh, iron ore."

Iron ore is also very good. Where is it? Tell me quickly, everyone roared in their hearts.

But they couldn't wait to go forward and shake Qin Ruchu's shoulders.

System: "Host, are you still not listening?"

Qin Ruchu: "Listen, go on, but can you first tell me where the gold mine is?"

She really needed gold, very much.

System: "I'll tell you, can you dig it?"

If she was nearby, she could secretly dig, but if she was far away, could her legs stretch that far? What a joke.

The emperor wanted to say that he was great, that his skills were infinitely long and that he could dig up gold anywhere, but he could not open his mouth.

Qin Ruchu: "Forget it, just tell me where the iron mine is."

But, but, he doesn’t mind the iron mine, the emperor nodded in his heart.

System: "There is a mountain not far from the capital. The mountain originally belonged to the Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Revenue. It was passed down as an ancestral property. If nothing unexpected happened, it would be passed down to the next generation through the Yuanwailang. Unfortunately, the Yuanwailang had a gambling son. He couldn't wait for the Yuanwailang to pass the property to him, so he decided to take it himself. He took advantage of the Yuanwailang's absence one day, stole the deed, took it to the pawnshop, and pawned it for fifty taels. In this way, the mountain fell into the hands of the pawnshop owner, the Gu family."

Qin Ruchu: "Is it the Gu family you were thinking of?"

System: "Yes, it is the Gu family you are thinking of. As you know, the Gu family is a noble family with money and power, and they have many capable people. As soon as they got to the mountain, they sent people to investigate, and now, they have discovered iron ore."

Everyone looked towards the position of Grand Tutor Gu. Grand Tutor Gu was old, and was not here except on necessary occasions. I wonder if he knew what would happen if everyone was eating his melons.

However, Grand Tutor Gu was not here, but the Vice Minister of Personnel was, and he was a member of the Gu family.

Gu Yu, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was sweating on his back. If his colleagues had not held him up, he would have cried out that he was wronged. He didn't know whether it was iron mine or not. His family had never told him and he hadn't heard a word about it. He knew about it and would have handed it over.

Qin Ruchu looked towards Gu Yu, not knowing if she was seeing things, his right-hand man was standing a little close to him, maybe she was seeing things, probably because the distance was too far and she couldn't see clearly, so she had this illusion.

〖Has the Gu family ever thought about handing it over?〗

System: "It was the Gu family's branch that discovered the iron ore. If they wanted to hand it over, they had to go through the main family. At the time, they were jealous of the main family's greater benefits, so they naturally didn't want to let the main family take advantage. They wanted to keep it a secret. One day in the future, when the dynasty is overthrown, they would use the iron ore to join the new dynasty, suppress the main family, and become the new nobles."
