Although the losses on the grassland and on the plateau also made the Dou family and Changsun Wuji very painful, unlike the two places that are of great significance to the Shi family, for the two places, these are just two of their many wallets.

What really hurts is the core manpower lost. These are loyal subordinates who cannot be exchanged for more money. They have spent countless efforts and time to gain the family and the human resources that all major families attach the most importance to.

But for the Shi family, the three places that were attacked can be said to be the foundation of the Shi family and an irreplaceable large treasury. Therefore, the revenge of the Shi family obviously did not reach the principle of equality in their minds.

Since the other party is trying to cut off their lifeline, then what they have to do is naturally to really move their lifeline.

The most important thing about the lifeline of the two companies is the minerals that both companies have tried their best to grab and be warmed up by the crowd of wolves.

The reason is very simple. It is not because these things can make them make a lot of money. Of course, the volume is the main focus, and these monopoly minerals can indeed bring great benefits. But after all, there is a Tang Dynasty court that is suppressing them, so they will not make huge profits wantonly.

What they really care about is the influence brought by these minerals, which is where their powerful family really relies on.

This principle is actually easy to understand. You are engaged in industrial industries, especially this kind of mining industry, with thousands of workers serving such a mineral, and there are thousands of families behind it, which are closely related to this mineral.

The minerals produced are closely related to more families, so the huge influence generated by this must be a force that can determine certain decisions, at least to determine the rise and fall of a state and a place, and to control the promotion and decline of local parents.

On the other hand, those who engage in foreign trade only do things like buying low and selling high. Often, dozens or hundreds of people can set up a large business group. Even if they are gone, they will only involve many people. They are just those guys with interest.

Besides, it would be fine if such trade is less for a while, but minerals can be said to be related to the national economy and people's livelihood. If it is missing, it is not possible.

So even if the actual profits earned by the two things are similar, the meaning behind this is a world of difference.

It can even be said that whether there is such an industry at hand can be used as an important basis for judging whether it is truly at the top of the pyramid of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, it is also possible on the other hand. If it is not a person whose power reaches its peak, it will definitely not be able to keep this popular thing in everyone's eyes.

However, such a place is originally quite large and people have to guard it tightly. The staff arranged is not limited to a large army, and there must be several elite troops throughout the Tang Dynasty.

These guys have invested countless manpower and material resources, and have piled up gold and silver. They have selected the best soldiers, performed the most ruthless training, equipped with the strongest equipment, and played the most beautiful girls. In short, everything is based on the highest standards.

This means that the Tang Dynasty was relatively peaceful. If something really happened, the people in these mines could be used as their capital to start their business.

No matter from any perspective, such a place is obviously the confidence and confidence of the big family, and I never thought that one day, in such a peaceful era, their life roots would be suddenly destroyed and destroyed!

"What did you say?! The carboniferous mine exploded? Then it collapsed?" Angry roar came from the Dou family and Changsun Wuji's house.

"Why did it explode? Ah? Why? Tell me why?" The heads of the two families were also asking similar questions.

Although there were such accidents in the past and even incidents one after another, under the bloody lesson, they quickly understood what to do to ensure necessary safety.

Even though there are many miners, they don’t care much about the safety of those miners, but they care about their own coal mine production. Especially when the caravan waiting to pull the cargo, squatting at the gate of their own cargo factory every day.

People can die, but they cannot affect the speed of carbonite excavation, so they adopted a safer approach and reduced the time spent on dealing with collapsed mines.

As a result, when they were about to celebrate their carboniferous mines and their continuous safe operation was about to be two years old, the manager came to tell them that their mine had exploded and collapsed. If there was no need to ask, the two heads of the family who were already on the verge of the outbreak had already crushed the hateful fat face in front of them.

"It looks like those damn black legs, who did not comply with the mine regulations and went down to the mine privately." The other side saw that many greedy officials from the mine were struggling to move their flesh-like bodies, and said intermittently. Because they were too scared, they could no longer help but tremble, causing the fat on their bodies to jump.

"So how much is our loss?" The head of the family whose eyes turned blood-red, his voice calmed down, but there was no trace of popularity in it, and it was as cool as if there was no emotion at all.

"The elite guards on the mine were killed and injured by nearly 500 people. Because the entire mine collapsed, most of the guards were buried in the ground, and many of them were killed by bombing. It will take at least half a year to restore the mine to its original output."

When he heard the number of casualties, Changsun Wuji tightly covered his chest. If he hadn't helped the desk next to him, he might have lie down on the ground with a little dizzy.

Finally, he couldn't help but get angry, and he picked up the inkstone on the table without hesitation, slapped the forehead of the fat supervisor who didn't even dare to dodge. Until he only slapped the inkstone in his hand, he almost vented his anger, and then recovered from his hysterical state.

"Come on, drag this fat pig out to feed the dog." Changsun Wuji casually decided the fate of the manager. And the fate of the Dou family is not much better than this one.

"Is the Shi family's revenge? It seems that I underestimated this family, but I just don't know if the Cheng family is behind it? Or higher?"

Unlike this manager, Changsun Wuji didn't believe that this would be an accident from the beginning. There was no such coincidence. He had just taken action against others, but his own industry had suffered one after another, and he had to take advantage of the Dou family, which also took action.

Even the carboniferous mine explosion was chosen on the same day. Could it be that the mine itself could not see it and decided to die and let us see it. This is such a big deal.

"We can't continue like this anymore. This matter should be over!" Changsun Wuji said with some helpless hatred.

The Shi family immediately told them with actions that this matter is not the end. Since it has begun, of course there is no reason to give up halfway. Only by truly hurting the opponent and even if he looks at you, he will not dare to take a look at you, can he be considered to be truly effective.

In addition to really killing your opponent, a good way to make your opponent calm down is undoubtedly to fight until your opponent is afraid.

Fortunately, it is not winter now, so there are not many carbonite prices rising. There are also several top Wuxun families who are also doing the carbonite business. There will be some excess production in spring and summer, which will be enough to meet the needs of ordinary people’s daily lives.

What really fell in love with the news was the reputation of the Dou family and Changsun Wuji families. Some of the opponents who were originally suppressed by them dared to come out and jump around with this opportunity, and even made it very meaningful to connect them together. If it weren't for the fact that the two families were not lucky recently, these people would not dare to get into the ground on Tai Sui's head anymore. They would have been honestly looking for a corner to squat up and waiting for an opportunity to give them some colors.

These two families could only turn into firefighters helplessly, and they put out fire everywhere when they saw the sky. Today, this industry suffered some losses, and tomorrow that store was troubled, and they were very busy.
