Chapter 623: The Xu Family Mines a Mineral Vein
In Tenglongfang City, there is a splendid and luxuriously decorated private room on the second floor of a restaurant.
Two monks in the early stages of foundation building were sitting opposite each other, feasting on a fine banquet on the table, pushing glasses and changing glasses.
After he was half drunk, one of the monks in black robes put the finished wine glass on the table and began to say to his friend:
"Lao Kang, have you heard about the recent rumors in the city?"
The monk surnamed Kang who was asked was holding the hind leg of a second-order low-grade monster with both hands and chewing on Zhengmei. Hearing this, he just looked at his friend and shook his head without answering.
"I said, after all, you are also a foundation-building monk. Can't you be more elegant in your eating habits? Why are you still the same as when we were casual cultivators?
If others saw this, wouldn't they be laughed at?
You put down the animal legs first and listen to what I tell you. The next thing is very important to you and me. "
Seeing his friend's serious attitude behind his words, the monk surnamed Kang could only put down the animal leg reluctantly, took out a handkerchief, wiped his mouth, burped, and then said:
"Okay, Brother Wu, you can say something if you have something to say."
"Have you heard the news that the Xu family is closing the mountain?"
"You must have heard about it, it is said that Patriarch Xu personally announced it three months ago.
Although I have been collecting herbs and hunting animals in the Wanshan Mountains during this period, this news has spread almost throughout the entire Wei State. I also heard about it from several other teams I met when entering the mountains.
If the family rises too fast, it is prone to this kind of problem. There are too few people and they are tired of dealing with all kinds of complicated personnel transactions, so they can only deal with it by closing down the mountain.
What, Brother Wu? When you invited me to drink today, did you just want to say this? "
"Of course not. What's there to say about the Xu family's sealing of the mountain? It has little to do with you and me.
What I want to say today is closely related to you and me. "
Seeing his friend's mysterious behavior, the monk surnamed Kang couldn't help but urge:
"Brother Wu, you and I have been friends for many years. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. There is no need to hesitate."
"Okay, let me tell you this. A good friend of mine has been working as a second-class priest in the Xu family for some years. He is usually assigned to serve under Patriarch Xu's eldest son.
Last time we met by chance in Fangshi, we sat together and had a drink. According to the information he told me, the Xu family seemed to have the intention to develop the area adjacent to Leizhou and Wanshan Mountains. "
Hearing what his friend said, monk surnamed Kang couldn't help but interject:
"Isn't this impossible? The Heavenly Sword Sect back then was much stronger than the Xu family today. They didn't dare to have the idea of joining the human and demon clans at that time. Why should the Xu family?"
"I don't know about that. I heard from him that Patriarch Xu has been exploring the edge of the human-monster clan some time ago, and it seems he has made some major discovery."
The monk surnamed Wu continued to speak mysteriously.
"But this has nothing to do with us. The Xu family has developed the boundary between the two clans, and we continue to collect herbs and hunt animals. It can be said that we will not interfere with each other!"
Seeing that his friend still didn't understand the pros and cons, the monk surnamed Wu simply made it clear.
"To tell you the truth, I heard that Patriarch Xu discovered a medium-sized mineral vein at the border between the two tribes, and will recruit a large number of casual cultivators to mine for them.
If you think about it, it is possible for medium-sized mineral veins to stretch for hundreds or even thousands of miles. If this is mined on a large scale, the noise caused will definitely be huge, and it will definitely attract the attention of the demon clan.
When the time comes, the demon clan will definitely send troops to the border between the two clans. By then, those of us monks who rely on going into the mountains to collect herbs and hunt animals, do you think it will be as easy as now? "
After hearing what his friends had said so clearly, the monk surnamed Kang couldn't help but worry about his future life.
The Xu family is powerful, and what they want to do is beyond the control of a foundation-building monk like me.
"Brother Wu, you usually have many ideas, please tell us where should we go in this current situation?
To be honest, I have been living in Leizhou since I was born, and I really don’t want to live in another state! "
Seeing the anxious look on his friend's face, the monk surnamed Wu smiled secretly, picked up the wine flask, and poured a glass of wine for himself and then said slowly:
"Brother Kang, not only you, but I have also lived in Leizhou for a long time, and I also have feelings for this place.
So after asking around a lot, I finally found a good way out for the two of us. "
"Oh, brother Wu, tell me quickly."
The monk surnamed Kang was overjoyed when he heard this, stared at his friend and asked.
"The way out is for us to take advantage of the fact that before others know that the Xu family is going to invest a lot of manpower in mining, we are the first to come and take action.
According to my friend who is a guest, in order to open the mine, the Xu family will recruit a large number of casual cultivators, at least thousands, among whom the Qi Refining cultivators will definitely account for the majority.
But when there are too many people, someone has to manage them, otherwise it will be chaos. Therefore, while recruiting miners, the Xu family will also recruit foundation-building monks as stewards to look after these miners for them, and at the same time guard the safety of the mine. "
After hearing his friend's suggestion, the monk surnamed Kang silently picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, as if weighing the pros and cons.
"Brother Wu, this is a way out, but I have been a casual cultivator since I was a child, and I am used to being free and loose. If I really want to be a steward in the Xu family's mine, I will definitely have to abide by many rules. I'm afraid I can't do it! "
Zhuji, surnamed Wu, heard his friend say this and knew that the other party was tempted, but he was still a little hesitant. He was ready to show his trump card so that he could make up his mind.
"Brother Kang, between freedom and the path, which do you think is more important?"
"Of course the path is more important!"
"So you and I should work at the Xu family mine. Do you know what price they offer to the foundation-building deacon?
For cultivators in the early stage of foundation-building like you and me, the basic salary is 3,000 spirit stones a year, and there are additional rewards.
If our miners mine raw ore worth 100,000 spirit stones in a year, we will enjoy a 10% reward, which is 10,000 spirit stones."
Originally, when he heard that the annual salary was only 3,000 spirit stones, the cultivator surnamed Kang looked disdainful. He could earn so many spirit stones in two or three months in the mountains.
But when he heard the reward terms later, he was undoubtedly tempted, but still had doubts.
"Brother Wu, the conditions offered by the Xu family are indeed quite high, but safety is also very important. Mining spiritual mines on the border between humans and demons is quite risky!"
"Haha, Brother Kang, isn't it dangerous for you to go into the mountains to hunt animals and collect herbs? It's impossible to earn spiritual stones without taking any risks.
Besides, do you think the Xu family will have no defense measures against the mine? I heard that after the mining begins, the Xu family will send a Jindan cultivator there to take charge."
"In that case, I have no problem, Brother Wu, let's go to the Fangzhu Mansion to register now, so as not to be late."
Hearing his friend say this, the cultivator surnamed Wu felt relieved, and the introduction fee of 5,000 spiritual stones was in hand.
