Chapter 790 Silver Mountain
After learning about what happened in the Tang Dynasty, Shen Wansheng was relieved but also quite depressed. He had been struggling in Japan for so long, but couldn't withstand a tsunami, and all his efforts were in vain.
I'm just wasting my time!
"Uncle, are you okay?"
Seeing that Shen Wansheng's expression was not right, Boss Xu asked cautiously.
"Uh, it's okay, I'm fine!"
"Every generation has its own talented people, and the old are replaced by the new. I just feel like I'm getting old!"
Shen Wansheng was indeed a little discouraged.
Back then, he also had great ambitions and wanted to support the country and become an important official of the Tang Dynasty. To this end, he did many things in Xiangyi Prefecture.
But it is better to change than to plan.
He also adjusted his life goals as the situation changed.
When the situation in the Tang Dynasty became unstable, he did not want to fight against his own people, so he turned his attention to Japan, intending to realize his ambitions there. However, who would have thought that a sudden tsunami would make all his efforts go to waste.
"Second Uncle, what are you talking about?"
Boss Xu rolled his eyes. "You're much younger than my father, and my father is still at war with the Frost Spirits. How can you say you're old?"
"The overall situation of Japan depends on you!"
"What are you pointing at me for?"
Shen Wansheng glanced at Boss Xu and said, "I just suffered a defeat, lost many soldiers and generals, and I don't know how to go back to see the elders and fellow villagers of Changshan Prefecture!"
A tsunami wiped out all the troops brought by Shen Wansheng. These troops were all from Changshan Prefecture. Many of them were private soldiers of the Shen family, but there were also many who were naval officers of the imperial court.
"So, Second Uncle, you must take charge of the situation here!"
"That way, we can immediately use the spoils from the battlefield to compensate our fallen comrades!"
"Would you be at ease if you didn't personally monitor this matter?"
Boss Xu threw a simple question at him, and Shen Wansheng fell silent.
The compensation for soldiers killed in battle was a major issue, and there were too many people involved.
Even if Shen Wansheng's confidant were to do this, he might not be able to resist the temptation of huge benefits and do something.
During the battle of Huangfengkou, Mr. Xu personally took Boss Xu Da and Boss Xu Er to handle the matter. Afterwards, he randomly checked the implementation of the pensions to ensure that the pensions were in place.
Shen Wansheng was also clear about this matter at the beginning.
"Will you still withhold compensation for those who died in battle?"
"Well, Uncle, I don't plan to stay in Japan!"
Boss Xu answered simply.
Shen Wansheng was stunned for a moment and said, "If you don't stay here, where are you going? Go back?"
"No, you should listen to my younger sister on this matter!"
Boss Xu couldn't convince anyone about the Kingdom of the Rising Sun, so naturally he had to push Fubao out.
Fubao naturally talked about the Land of the Rising Sun and the Maoyi people they met on the way here.
"Uncle, the Maoyi people have already determined the location of the Land of the Rising Sun. We are going to follow the route they have discovered to take a look!"
"We're just going to take a look. Why don't we just send someone over? Why do you two want to follow us? Isn't this nonsense?"
Shen Wansheng glared, “Do you know how many risks there are at sea?”
"If there were a storm, the surging waves would send the entire ship flying into the sky."
"This won't work with me!"
Shen Wansheng directly expressed his boycott.
"If anything happens to you and your sister, how will I face your father and mother in the future?"
"In short, this matter will not work!"
Shen Wansheng's attitude at this time was very firm.
"I'm telling you, if you two go to the Land of the Rising Sun, I'll take my people back to the Tang Dynasty. Whoever wants to deal with Japan can do it, I won't care!"
"I'm not kidding!"
Shen Wansheng looked at Boss Xu and Fubao very seriously.
"Little sister, I think what Second Uncle said makes sense!"
Faced with Shen Wansheng's sudden toughness, Boss Xu took advantage of the situation.
After all, from the very beginning, Boss Xu had disapproved of the idea of going abroad to Japan. However, Fubao was determined and could not be persuaded.
In order to ensure the safety of his little sister, Boss Xu had no choice but to go with him.
But now, Shen Wansheng is their father's sworn brother, their second uncle, and with this elder coming out to make the decision, then they must listen to the elder.
As soon as Fubao saw his elder brother's attitude, he knew that his elder brother, a weak-willed guy, had betrayed their journey to the stars and the sea.
Although you can go alone, the problem is, if you go alone, don’t you have to do everything yourself?
As a lucky fish, she has to do everything by herself. This is definitely not the life she wants.
So, we have to give up on this matter.
"Okay, okay, let's arrange for someone else to go to the Kingdom of the Rising Sun."
In fact, in this era, searching for the American continent is meaningless because all the necessary crops are already available in the Tang Dynasty.
Unless they encounter extreme natural disasters, people will be able to survive.
Having given up the idea of going to America, the Land of the Rising Sun, Fubao took his elder brother and headed for a special place.
There is a particularly famous place in Japan, and that is Iwami Ginzan.
This Iwami Silver Mountain is a huge silver mine mountain.
Fubao didn’t know whether Japan had discovered Iwami Ginzan at this time, but regardless of whether Japan had discovered it or not, she was determined to find this place.
In this way, the supplies needed by the time-traveling veteran Comrade Li Huang will not be a problem at all.
"Little sister, are you sure you're in the right place?"
Looking at the mountains ahead, Boss Xu was completely bewildered. Looking for silver mines in a place like this? Was he expecting too much from his little sister?
"Brother, just sit back and relax!"
"Of course, if you can't sit still, you can follow me and go find the silver mine!"
Fubao looked at his elder brother who was running around acting like his own eldest brother and spoke unhappily.
"Do you think I'm stupid?"
Boss Xu rolled his eyes at Fu Bao and said, "With such a huge mountain, you're asking me to look for a silver mine. Isn't that like looking for a needle in a haystack?"
As a result, the moment Boss Xu finished saying this, cheers came from the front.
"Found it, found it, silver, all silver!"
Hearing the shout, Boss Xu didn't care about Fubao and rushed forward quickly.
Unfortunately, his speed is far inferior to Fubao's.
After all, Fubao can fly, while Boss Xu can only run. They are not on the same level at all.
"Silver, all silver!"
"So much silver!"
When Fubao and Boss Xu arrived at the scene, they saw many soldiers digging the ground excitedly.
