Chapter 517: Chapter 0519 Arriving at the Destination
General Kanni, upon hearing Kang Xuesong’s words, was also startled and quickly asked, "Old sir, then what do you think we should do now?"
Playing mind games with the Huaxia, to be honest, the Barbarians still fall short. Kang Xuesong had not been here for even a year before he had gathered the remnants of the Bai Family and then became the military adviser to Kanni.
Of course, Kang Xuesong truly had some skills. Under the guidance of Kang Xuesong’s strategies, Kanni’s troops had expanded from around a hundred people to over a thousand in less than a year, making the Government Army wary.
Kang Xuesong said, "The most pressing matter is that we must beat them to the mining vein. Only by securing the mining vein will you have enough money to overthrow the current government."
Kanni, troubled, said, "But, old sir, the area ahead is controlled by the Government Army. There’s no way we can pass through in large groups. And more importantly, we have no idea about the specific location of the mining vein."
The exact location of the mining vein was indeed known only to Fatty Tang. Actually, Fatty Tang’s discovery of the mining vein was purely coincidental. He had found the mining map while sorting through his father’s belongings, left to his father by a jade digger whom his father had once saved.
If it weren’t for the fact that his jade supply was running out so quickly, Fatty Tang would not have taken notice of this mining vein.
So, although the talk of the mining vein was all the rage at the moment, the only one who truly knew its exact location was Fatty Tang. Of course, Kang Xuesong also knew of it, but he only knew the general area, not the specifics.
"General Kanni, I am aware of the general location, and as for the exact spot, when we get there, we won’t have trouble finding it. As for our people, it’s easy; we’ll just break them up and get through. The weaponry and equipment can be brought by me and the Bai Family people," Kang Xuesong said.
...
"Ouch! Ouch, my butt!" Fatty Tang moaned as Ma Hong carried him, crying out with every step.
Ma Hong, annoyed, said, "Brother Chu has already treated you; what are you still yelling about? Do you make a living with your butt?"
Fatty Tang said, "You don’t understand, I’m most satisfied with my butt. Now that it has a bullet hole, it’s no longer perfect."
Ma Hong said, "You’re wasting your talent selling jade, you should go sell your butt. If it weren’t for your fatness giving us away, would you have been shot?"
Fatty Tang said, "This time I am determined to lose weight; even if it’s just for my butt, I have to slim down."
Chu Feng glanced at the Sun that was just showing its face and asked, "Brother Ma, we’re on the Government Army’s turf now, aren’t we?"
Ma Hong looked up and replied, "We are. In a few dozen kilometers, we’ll reach our destination."
"You guys, go get some vehicles and ammunition," Ma Hong instructed one of his men.
Chu Feng said, "Where are we going to find vehicles and ammunition in a place like this?"
Ma Hong said, "Brother, you don’t know, with money in such places, you can make the devil turn the millstones. Especially our Huaxia Coin, it’s solid currency here. With money, even getting the Government Army to help us wipe out the Rebel Army is no problem. It’s just that Laozi isn’t that flamboyant, and besides if they stop fighting, we won’t have anything to gain. If border controls are tightened and the material can’t be moved over, the ones to suffer will be us."
After hearing Ma Hong’s words, Chu Feng also felt somewhat speechless. He was also at a loss for words about such a country; no wonder it was in such chaos.
Fifteen minutes later, the people Ma Hong had sent out indeed managed to acquire three semi-trailers and some ammunition.
"These things must have cost a lot, right?" Chu Feng asked.
Ma Hong chuckled and extended a finger.
"One hundred thousand, these things are quite worth it for that much," Chu Feng nodded and said.
Ma Hong said, "Just ten thousand was enough."
"What, ten thousand!" Chu Feng and Fatty Tang both exclaimed in surprise.
The three semi-trailers looked well-maintained, and even if the vehicles weren’t worth much, the ammunition alone must have been costly.
Ma Hong said, "Don’t be too surprised. With one hundred thousand, I could get you a tank from the eighties and dozens of shells, but that thing wouldn’t be much use in the mountains."
Fatty Tang said, "My goodness, with our net worth, we could maintain an army here and even become a king."
Ma Hong said, "That might be a bit difficult. The guns and vehicles come from their soldiers. The soldiers here have a hard life without much to skim off. They usually rely on selling guns and such. At worst, later on, they just report that the Rebel Army stole them. But overthrowing a state isn’t just about money. So you’d better give up on your dream of becoming a king."
Although they couldn’t dream of becoming kings, for one thousand Huaxia Coin to get so much stuff was still shocking enough for Chu Feng and the others.
"In East River, two thousand wouldn’t even get you a toilet now. But here, it could outfit a whole squad," Chu Feng thought.
With vehicles and money now in hand, the remaining journey was much easier, and Chu Feng was fully witness to the true colors of the Government Army.
As long as there was money, no one would care what was in your vehicle. Even if you had a nuclear bomb on board, as long as you had the money, they would let you pass just the same.
After a few dozen kilometers, within three hours they had arrived. Once there, Ma Hong had the vehicles hidden first; the rest of the way had to be traveled on foot again.
Stepping off the vehicle, Chu Feng looked at the mountains brimming with Spiritual Energy and felt like he was floating towards Heaven.
Back in East River, Chu Feng had never experienced such rich Spiritual Energy. For someone like Chu Feng, a Cultivator, this place was practically Heaven.
"Fatty, it’s up to you now. Find us the location, and we’ll take the men up. Once we’ve taken it, I’ll contact the Government Army," Ma Hong told Fatty Tang.
Chu Feng said, "No need to search, I already know where it is. Let’s just head straight there."
Fatty Tang and Ma Hong were stunned by Chu Feng’s words, especially Fatty Tang, who was sure only he knew the way.
But what Fatty Tang didn’t know was that Chu Feng didn’t need a map to find the mining vein; he could rely on Spiritual Energy alone.
