When the sisters woke up.
The hemp rope tied on his hand was untied at some point.
After being pushed off the carriage, Nan Baoyi looked around and was surprised to find that this place turned out to be a deep mountain forest outside Chang'an City.
Surrounded by countless simple tents, rocky, yellow-faced men and women wearing heavy anklets, holding hoes, bamboo baskets and other objects in their hands, they lined up in embarrassment and hardship to walk into the cave not far away.
The guard with a long whip, standing with a knife, is watching them.
One of the middle-aged men accidentally dropped a bamboo basket full of ore on the ground, and the guard immediately stepped forward and unceremoniously raised the whip to slap him. It was so painful that he wailed and rolled all over the floor.
The two of them were frightened.
The official who escorted the two of them over was checking out with a little boss.
He stroked his beard and smiled badly: "In the mine of Da Situ, there is no such beautiful little lady. I thought it was good when I first saw it, and I specially caught it and sent it to you."
Chief Liu looked at the two sisters carefully and couldn't help but salivate.
He smiled, took two silver tickets and handed them to the officials: "Take them to the brothers for a drink! With these two beautiful young ladies, I want to come to our mine buddies to work harder! When the time comes to mine! As the output increases, Da Situ will definitely reward us!"
Nan Baoyi blinked.
She heard from her husband that the great Situ Wu Zhen was not only a high-ranking authority, but also a master of the Ore Mountains near Chang'an, and those ores were the raw materials for making five stone powder.
It turned out that she and her sister were abducted and sold to Wu's mine.
She looked around.
Those poor people who have been flogged must be slaves abducted and sold by the Wu family over the years.
They have no way to guide them, and they have no relatives in the city of Chang'an. Even if they are abducted, the government will not know, even if they are exhausted in the mine, no one will care...
Da Situ Mansion is really terrible!
After the officer left, Chief Liu coughed, salivated his old face, and said warmly: "When I come here, I don't want to go out in my life. What are the names of the two little ladies and how old are you this year? I honestly explain to my uncle, I feel sorry for you. I will let you eat and drink spicy food for the rest of your life, and will not ask you to do coolies like those lowly slaves."
He spoke nicely.
But Nan Baoyi and Nan Yan are not stupid either.
The two of them knew very well that the officer was from Wu Situ, who specialized in abducting and selling refugees to come here as coolies. Because of their good looks, they were sent here to be mines/prostitutes.
The two sisters looked at each other.
Just about to speak, the middle-aged man who was whipped suddenly rushed over with a shout!
He was unkempt and grabbed the two girls in disbelief: "Jiaojiao, Yan'er?!"
He was ecstatic, seeing the two little girls stunned, and quickly picked up the messy hair, and said excitedly: "It's me, it's daddy! Why are you two here, you want to die!"
Dad?
Nan Baoyi and Nan Yan were still stunned.
Nan Guang said with a sullen face: "I blame my father for vanity. I saw others taking Wu Shi San and wanted to catch up with the trend, so I stole your mother's medicine. I ate and ate and it felt very good, so I went to the drug store to buy on credit. . I took two thousand on credit and couldn't pay the bill, so I was caught doing coolies here..."
After explaining the ins and outs, he happily patted the two sisters: "As the saying goes, you are not a family, and you don't enter a family. You two come to accompany Daddy, Daddy feels safe! By the way, are you both in debt?"
Nan Baoyi: "..."
Nan Yan: "..."
Not to mention whether this man is their own father or not, based on his stupid look, even if he is a relative father, they don't want to recognize him at all!
Nan Baoyi whispered to Nan Yan: "Is he really our father?"
Nan Yan: "From the looks, it looks like."
What's more, he called out their names.
The three of them were about to speak in detail, and Chief Liu was impatient: "It doesn't matter if you are a father or a daughter or whatever, when you arrive at the mine, the master has the final say! You, go ahead, don't delay your business!"
He pushed away Nanguang.
Nan Guang stroked his unkempt hair, glanced at the two flower-like baby girls, and then at the head Liu.
He is also a man, and he knows what Liu boss wants to do.
He was secretly angry, barely suppressing his temper, and approached the leader Liu in a good voice, gestured, and whispered: "I have hidden some private money, don't touch them, I will give you the money."
Chief Liu stared at his hand and sneered, "Maybe, I want to bribe the Lord?"
"Fifty taels."
Nanguang said softly.
Lest Chief Liu didn’t believe him, he took off his boots and took out a silver slip from the insole interlayer: "Here, fifty taels. I'm in the mine, and I hide a hundred taels. Don’t abuse my daughter, please. In two months, I will give you that bank note."
Fifty taels, enough to go to the ordinary flower house for a long time.
Chief Liu dusted the banknotes and smiled openly: "Okay."
After bribing the little boss, Nanguang also got a chance to rest.
The three father and daughter were sitting in a mine talking.
Nan Guang talked endlessly about how he missed the two sisters.
He talked for a quarter of an hour. Seeing no response from the two of them, he asked: "What's the matter with you?"
Nan Baoyi is sincere: "Father, my sister and I can't remember the past."
Nan Guang was stunned.
He opened his mouth and wanted to ask something, but he knew that asking was for nothing.
After a long while, he comforted: "Why don't you do something, I will take you home when Dad finishes the coolies. Seeing your grandmother and brothers and sisters, I slowly remembered."
"Can not go back."
Nan Yan Shen Sheng.
Nan Guang was surprised: "Why can't I go back? I just owe money, not my life."
Nan Yan used a hairpin to scrape away the stone clothes on the cave wall.
Nan Baoyi and Nan Guang looked around.
A dazzling golden color flashed in the pale gray-brown stone clothing.
Nan Baoyi said softly: "Gold..."
"The so-called five-stone scattered veins are probably just a cover." Nan Yan Dai returned the hairpin, with a cold apricot. "The Wu family is really mining gold mines."
There are eight great families in Chang'an City, and their families are rich and distinguished.
But the wealth of the Great Situ Mansion, even other aristocratic families, was greedy.
It turns out that their wealth came like this...
Nan Baoyi's face was pale: "Privately mining gold mines, according to the law to punish the Nine Clan. From the time we came here, whether we saw the gold mine or not, to be on the safe side, the Wu family couldn't let us out.
The sisters were immersed in how to save themselves.
Nanguang did not know where to drag a shovel.
He beamed his eyebrows: "My dear girl, don't worry, my good son-in-law will definitely come to save us. You two have this kind of pain in the spring and autumn, why don't you take the opportunity to dig more gold! By the way, if the entire gold mine is Our family will be fine. What kind of brocades are we selling, and what banks are we going to develop, hahahaha!"
He is so optimistic.
Nan Baoyi and Nan Yan looked at each other, and they were speechless.
...
At this time, Chang'an City Pharmacy.
Xiao Yi stayed up all night, leaning on the shelf, fiddling with winning money.
He investigated and judged that the third uncle should have disappeared in this drugstore.
The guards are searching for people.
No results were found yet, a figure flashed in, it was the dark guard who was in charge of looking after Nan Baoyi.
With a serious face, he arched his hands: "His Royal Highness, something happened to the princess!"
