Gu Qiang didn't have to give the Luoping Marquis any face. After all, this was near the capital and it was not the Marquis's turn to show off his power here.
This Marquis of Luoping took himself a little too seriously, thinking that he, a small businessman, would have to save face for him. Little did he know that there were so many high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital who all regarded the Gusu family's property as a big deal. Son, everyone wants to get close, but he is the only one who wants to offend me.
"The prince should be cautious in his words and deeds. The common man is just a businessman. Even if you say so, my presence in this place may not necessarily affect the prince's judgment. You should think about it carefully. Wait a minute, if it is true If something is found, how should you explain it?"
The mine collapsed, and there were so many workers here. If Shen Qianshan hadn't stopped the fortifications here earlier, who knows how many people would have been injured.
I came here just because I was worried about Shen Qianshan, not because I wanted to cause trouble for him, so I was not prepared to save any face for the person in front of me, and I didn't ask him to do anything anyway.
If he hadn't been just a commoner now, Gu Qiang would have wanted to slap him. This Marquis of Luoping was looking down on human life. If Shen Qianshan hadn't come here, there would have been countless casualties here. Even Shen Zhongbai might not be able to stand it.
Marquis Luo Ping had never been so angry before. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Shen Qianshan: "The Marquis is so anxious. Could it be that he wants to put all the blame on Young Master Gusu? Or maybe he is worried, Is everything happening here known to the emperor?”
The warning in Shen Qianshan's tone was very clear. After hearing this, Marquis Luo Ping was also shocked. He felt guilty after hearing what Shen Qianshan said, but he pretended to be calm on the surface. He looked like: "My lord, don't talk nonsense. The landslide here was all caused by natural disasters and man-made disasters. What does it have to do with me? Why should I be afraid?"
Luo Pinghou actually already knew that Shen Qianshan would soon find out the relationship between this mine and himself, but he still wanted to fool Shen Qianshan a little bit, hoping to fool Shen Qianshan smoothly.
It turns out that Lord Luoping came here in a hurry to fool Shen Qianshan.
Gu Qiang easily saw through Luo Pinghou's purpose, but after all, he was still not as sophisticated as Shen Qianshan, so Shen Qianshan ignored him and instead directly protected Gu Qiang beside him.
"If the Marquis doesn't stay well in the capital and comes outside, is it possible that he is worried about his mine?"
Shen Qianshan had already inquired about it. Luo Pinghou had been ordered to stay in the capital, but no one said he could enter and exit the capital at will.
Shen Qianshan also knew in his heart that the person he played was not someone to be trifled with. He was a better rogue than anyone else. He had forgotten about it. He couldn't have had too many interactions with him before. , but after all, I still got some information about him from other people's mouths, so I naturally wouldn't fight an unprepared battle.
At least Ning Ziyuan's injury to Gu Qiang and the situation in which Luo Pinghou behaved so recklessly must be settled by him.
Marquis Luo Ping is indeed panicking inside now. No matter how calm he looks, he can't hide it from Shen Qianshan in front of him. Shen Qianshan doesn't accept his tricks, and he is full of contempt for the Marquis Luo Ping in front of him.
"Although this place has been purchased by the Marquis, you have hired so many workers in the surrounding villages, and those workers are working here. If they are injured, you cannot bear the responsibility. .”
Shen Qianshan had finally caught up when he came this time. If something really happened, Luo Pinghou would be waiting for a lawsuit.
"Your Majesty is right. Since this land is in my name and I hired people and paid them, they are willing to work here for me. Does Your Majesty even have to take care of these things?"
When Marquis Luo Ping set out, Ning Ziyuan still gave him a few words of advice. Because of this, Marquis Luo Ping could remain as calm as possible in such a situation. He clearly remembered that his daughter was still there before he went out. I have warned you not to reveal your true identity in front of Shen Qianshan.
Now facing Shen Qianshan with such a strong aura in front of him, Luo Pinghou also knew why Ning Ziyuan told him what he said when he went out. If he hadn't been prepared, he might have already done it. He explained everything.
"There aren't even any safety measures in this mine. If something happens, the casualties will definitely be more than what they are now."
Gu Huaian hurriedly hurried for several days before he arrived at the place where the army was stationed in time.
But he didn't expect that the situation of the army was much worse than he imagined. So far, there had been no casualties. However, there were few people in the entire army who could stand up properly. Such a situation was very important to the army. It's not a good thing for them.
Gu Huaian was so frightened when he saw this situation that he quickly checked the pulse of the person who had fallen down. After a long time, he was sure that it was just a common cold, but for some reason the condition was not very serious. , but it has caused such a serious impact.
As soon as Huang Hao saw Gu Huaian coming, he breathed a sigh of relief, "You're finally here. I thought you encountered something on the way. You've checked just now. Can you tell what the situation is?" "
Huang Hao now wants to know what is going on. He doesn't want everyone in the army to continue like this. If there is a war at this time, it will not be a good thing for them, and no one can deal with it. Come on.
"I've seen it. It's just a symptom of ordinary wind and cold. It's not too serious, but it's not worth your optimism."
Gu Huai'an didn't think that this matter was as simple as it seemed on the surface. Everyone in the army pretended to be like cattle, how could they be harmed by ordinary wind and cold so easily? There was definitely a problem. After Gu Huaian gave Huang Hao a dose of reassurance, he turned around and began to investigate the situation in other places in the military camp. At the very least, he had to know where it was and where the most people were sick, so that he could I'm sure where this thing started from, but judging from the current situation, it should be difficult for me to arrive in Jiangnan on time. I wonder if Jiangnan can give me some accommodation time. The time for the imperial examination will not change. , I must seize the time here.
"Do you feel any pain from the swelling in your chest? Have you eaten anything else in the past few days?"
It was really difficult to confirm the objections, what these infected soldiers had experienced and what they had been exposed to, so Gu Huaian gave up the idea from the beginning and was not prepared to ask them one by one.
Gu Huaian didn't dare to come into contact with too many people who were seriously ill at this time, for fear that he would be infected too. After he got sick, he would have no choice but to come and go freely, which would probably cause trouble to other people.
However, the situation in the military camp did not improve at all. He could only say that he could still control the current situation. It was only after asking a few people that he felt something was wrong.
"We haven't been anywhere. Since we moved out of the small town, almost no one in the army has had contact with outsiders."
The soldier only coughed lightly a few times. Under Gu Huaian's request, all those who are not yet sick are required to cover their mouths and noses with cotton cloth to prevent them from contracting the disease. Sick, everyone in the army was very anxious when they heard about this situation, and they deeply followed the requirements of taking care of Huai'an.
The situation was barely stable for the time being, and no more people discovered anything sick. However, judging from the conditions described by these people, Gu Huaian discovered something extraordinary.
"This isn't right." Gu Huaian had just arrived at the army, and he had already noticed something was wrong, and secretly pulled Huang Hao aside.
Huang Hao has been tired of dealing with this situation these days and doesn't know what to do. Now when he heard Gu Huaian say this, he thought it was Gu Huaian who had discovered something worse, so he quickly picked up his energy and followed him.
"What's wrong? Is there any other bad situation?"
Huang Hao has been frightened by the situation in the military camp in the past few days. Gu Huaian's face is not good now, and he is even more anxious. What if something happens again? If the scale gets bigger and bigger, I won't be able to support it at all.
"Was the army stationed in the city before? At that time, the people in the army had more or less contact with the people in the city, and it shouldn't be just for purchasing, right?"
This is the most serious problem we are facing now, because people in the army have been exposed to too many people before. Where did your disease come from? Although I can temporarily control the situation in the army, this place will There won’t be other people with more severe symptoms, and I can’t tell for sure.
If after their army arrives here, a large-scale outbreak of disease begins among the people, then the people here will definitely feel that all these diseases are brought by people in the army, and they will lose the support of the people in the first step.
"Absolutely. When we lived in the town before, the people were very enthusiastic. Although we all hid our identities, they were still very enthusiastic towards people. We didn't even think about it..."
As Huang Hao talked, he began to feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't react for a while.
