Inside the cave, the silver bricks reflected the lamplight, the light was dazzling.

Su Qianqian was surprised that Cuihua actually helped her find the silver mine.

Having lived two lives, this was the first time he had seen so much silver laid out before him; no one could suppress their excitement.

However, this place belongs to the territory of the King of Huainan, so it is not convenient to stay for long. Therefore, he could only put all the silver bricks into his space.

The King of Huainan sent assassins to infiltrate Qinghe County a few days ago, intending to kill her. Consider these silver bricks as an apology from the King of Huainan.

Those who bully or hurt her must pay the price.

Su Qianqian had already decided that she would first take the spoils back to Qinghe County, and then find an opportunity to take Ling County into her own hands, so that the silver mine could truly belong to her.

The entrance to the cave was heavily guarded.

The white tiger was a bit arrogant and insisted on kicking the guard, so the two of them were eventually discovered by the enemy soldiers.

However, the enemy soldiers couldn't catch up with the white tiger. They fired a barrage of arrows, but the white tiger dodged them all.

Su Qianqian was very glad that she had put the macaw into her spatial storage beforehand, otherwise the macaw might have been injured by the arrow.

The stars in the sky twinkle, and the big white tiger on the ground crawls.

After escaping far away, Su Qianqian used a tree branch to whip the big white tiger's buttocks hard.

"Little Flower, you were too competitive today. You are forbidden from drinking the Spirit Spring for three days."

Normally, the enemy wouldn't have discovered its tracks, but the white tiger had developed a habit of playing tricks on people and deliberately jumped out.

The white tiger roared in protest, but the protest was useless because its owner was very authoritarian.

The soldiers guarding the cave stood inside the cave where the silver bricks were kept, their faces turning pale with fright, because all the silver bricks in the cave had disappeared.

This is a matter of life and death.

The silver bricks piled up like a small mountain must be quite heavy!

All we saw was the little girl riding the big white tiger. She didn't bring any other people with her, so how could she have moved all the silver bricks in such a short time!

This is incredible.

Could it be that Miss Su from Qinghe County really does possess magical powers, just like the legends say? That's terrifying.

If we ever encounter that girl again, I dare not shoot an arrow at her again.

News of Su Qianqian's discovery of the silver mine quickly reached the capital.

She wrote a letter to the emperor, along with a silver brick the size of a brick.

This has made many people envious.

A silver mine!

There are only three silver mines and one gold mine in the entire Great Qi.

The gold mine is located on the northern border, but the city where it was located has already been seized by the northern barbarians.

The three silver mines are old mines that have been mined for many years, and their resources are almost exhausted, so they are not very valuable.

Therefore, this new silver mine has attracted much attention.

The heavy silver brick was passed around among the ministers like a rare treasure.

"I had heard long ago that the Prince of Huainan had found a silver mine, but I always thought it was just a rumor. I never expected it to be true."

"Minister Luo's granddaughter is truly remarkable! She managed to locate the silver mine and even stole a sample."

When Vice Minister Luo heard others mention him, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

He wrote to his son in Qinghe County asking for money, but his son didn't give him a single penny.

Even if that girl found a silver mine, or even a gold mine, it wouldn't benefit him at all.

Vice Minister Luo took the silver brick, saying, "This silver is obviously of very high purity."

Jealousy began to fester and spread in my heart. Why? Why does that girl get all the good things?

Minister Luo received the silver brick, but before he could even warm it in his hand, it was snatched away by Lord Lu on his left.

This damn sense of loss is really annoying!

Luo, the Vice Minister, felt a pang of resentment. That girl was his own granddaughter. With such a big incident happening, he shouldn't have only sent a message to Emperor Qi Jing, but should have also sent a message to him, her grandfather.

So all I can say is that girl doesn't understand manners at all and doesn't know how to respect her elders.

Prime Minister Feng had no intention of touching the silver bricks. He felt that the little girl must have stolen more than one silver brick, but questioning her without evidence would be contrary to his prudent style.

Prime Minister Feng decided that he had to stop it no matter what, and could not let that girl take advantage of him. Since the girl had discovered the silver mine, it should definitely be handed over to the imperial court, and the court should send people to manage it.

Prime Minister Feng stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty is blessed with great fortune. The silver mines that were previously exploited have been depleted and are producing very little. Now, a new silver mine has been discovered, which can be used to replenish the empty national treasury."

Once the national treasury is full, the emperor will no longer force his ministers to donate silver when natural disasters or other natural disasters occur.

He has already donated money twice in just two months. Thinking about it makes his heart ache, and he never wants to spend money again.

Emperor Qi Jing coughed twice and said, "According to Miss Su, the silver mine is located in the mountains between Sicheng and Ling County. Ling County is still under the control of the Prince of Huainan. Even if Miss Su discovers the silver mine, she will not be able to take it over in a short time."

"Furthermore, I have already promised Miss Su that if she can truly seize the silver mine, the output from the silver mine will be at her disposal until the end of the war, and will be used to support the army."

The ministers were shocked.

This is the first time that silver mines have been handed over to private individuals instead of being managed by the imperial court.

I'm very curious about how that little girl managed to persuade Emperor Qi Jing.

If that silver mine is huge, wouldn't the little girl become incredibly wealthy in no time?

Then the Great Qi will no longer be five great families, but six great families!

Prime Minister Feng was so angry that his mouth twisted in disbelief. He never expected His Majesty to so hastily stipulate the ownership of the silver mines.

If the war never ends, won't the silver mine remain in that little girl's hands forever?

"Your Majesty, you mustn't! Since ancient times, gold and silver mines have belonged to the imperial court; there is no precedent for private mining!"

Emperor Jing of Qi is now very worried about the wars on the border and in Huainan.

Beset by internal and external troubles, he often suffered from insomnia until dawn.

Therefore, Emperor Qi Jing thought that if Miss Su could really conquer Ling County, it would be a good thing.

Before he could capture it, none of his men had the ability to defend the silver mine, so it was better to hand it over to Miss Su.

"Alright, everything is still uncertain. Let's talk about the silver mine after we take Ling County."

When Vice Minister Luo walked outside the palace, he was surrounded by many officials.

"Congratulations, Minister Luo."

"Your Luo family is about to own a silver mine. Minister Luo, you're going to be rich!"

Luo, the Vice Minister, felt no joy whatsoever; these people had no idea how much he was suffering inside.

Although his granddaughter was capable, the Luo family didn't benefit from it at all.

Now His Majesty says that the young girl can start mining the silver herself.

Opening a silver mine is no small matter. He could send Ming Geng and Ming Xin to help, since they are all family members and there's no reason for outsiders to benefit from it. But he knew that the girl definitely wouldn't listen to him.

That girl had no sense of perspective or family values. After all, she grew up in the countryside, so her short-sightedness was understandable.

Many ministers secretly rejoiced when they saw Vice Minister Luo's dejected figure.

"Minister Luo used to target that girl every time he was in court. Now that he knows she's his own granddaughter, he must be regretting it to the core."

"Last time he tried to cut in line at Gu's Tea House to buy rice candy, he got yelled at by the staff to his face. How embarrassing!"

"Last time, before Su Bing left the capital, many people bought rice candy through Su Bing, but Gu's Tea House wouldn't let Minister Luo cut in line. This shows that the young lady doesn't want to acknowledge him as her grandfather at all."

"I wouldn't accept it either. Who would like an elder who's always targeting them and acting like they have a grudge against them?"

"That young lady is so good at making money! Gu's Teahouse is packed every day. It's such a pity for Minister Luo. If he had just said a good word for her in court, he could have gotten some money from her. He wouldn't be so stingy with his boots, which are so worn out, and he still can't bear to buy new ones!"

Hearing the hushed chatter of the crowd, Vice Minister Luo stumbled and nearly fell.

He lowered his head and looked at his worn-out sheepskin boots, feeling utterly miserable.

If he had known earlier that she was his own granddaughter, he certainly wouldn't have targeted her in every way.

But now it's not just his fault; it's that little girl who's too cold-blooded and heartless, refusing to acknowledge him as her grandfather.

Even if elders make mistakes, younger generations should unconditionally forgive them.

Unfortunately, that girl from Qinghe County was a wild child, born of a mother but not raised by one, showing no regard for family affection whatsoever.

When Vice Minister Luo heard everyone around him laughing at his tattered boots, he felt extremely embarrassed.

All he could do now was frantically climb onto the carriage to prevent his tattered boots from being exposed to the public any longer.
