Chapter 2606 Look at the Essence Through the Phenomenon (This Cat Fell to the Ground with a Backflip)

The girls turned their heads and saw a few men dressed as miners walking in. They shook their heads and sat down in front of the bar, then asked the boss for a few glasses of wine, and then they started talking.

"Hey, what do you think Bonn will do if this trouble continues?"

"Who knows? But that lord consul is too domineering...he won't give us a way to survive."

Several people shook their heads and sighed while drinking, but at this time Miao Jie approached with a smile on her face.

"What are you talking about? Gentlemen?"

"Huh? Who are you, little girl?"

Looking at the cute girl in front of them, the miners didn't care.

"I'm a tourist who came here for a trip. I just came to the town, but it's not very peaceful here. What happened?"

"Hey, it's not a big deal."

Perhaps it was because Miaojie's tone was very polite and relaxed, and because she herself was smiling and made people feel good, the miners immediately started chatting with her.

"As you probably know, our Mainz is a mining town, and it used to be prosperous before, but that was many years ago. Now our production of Yaojing Mine is not bad. But recently I heard that It is said that a large underground mine vein has been explored here, and the consul... oh, it is the automatic mining device that the ruler of Closbell is planning to use for mining. According to him, this device can ensure the safety of mining. It is safe, and it can work 24 hours a day without requiring too many people..."

"Isn't that a good thing?"

Hearing this, Miao Jie tilted her head curiously, while the other miner put down the wine glass in his hand.

"Hey, what's the matter! At first, everyone was very excited when they heard that there was a new mine vein here, but I didn't expect the consul to say that because the new technology needs professionally trained members to operate, so they have to adopt Newcomers, and us old miners are useless at all!"

Speaking of this, the miner slapped the table in dissatisfaction, while another miner next to him rolled his eyes.

"What are you complaining about? Didn't they say that if they are willing to join, they can provide free training and teach you to use those guiding tools?"

"Hi, I'm so old, I can't understand the things written on it at all, what is the connection process, what is restarting, what is the radar waveform scan... I know every word, but I can't read it together Got it, I see, this is intentional tricking us!"

"Okay, what's there to complain about!"

At this moment, the innkeeper came over, put the jug on the bar, and snorted coldly.

"If you want me to say that your Excellency the Consul is doing a good job, mining is a dangerous thing. It's not like you don't know that there were many accidents and deaths when mining in the past. Now with those big iron shells, I'm not afraid of landslides or monsters. Isn't that good? And didn't your consul also say that? If you can't continue to work in the mine, you can learn skills, or provide loans for you to open a shop and do business. How about getting into the mine? Why are you making so much noise, are you willing to make your wife wait for you to come back every day in fear?"

"Hey...that's not what I meant either."

After being reprimanded by the innkeeper, the miner who complained before suddenly fell silent. Indeed, as the innkeeper said, miners are not safe at all. Landslides and explosions are relatively rare events, but if they fail to dig into a monster's lair, it will be troublesome.

After all, according to the "setting" of the continent of Samulia, the sparkling crystals are very easy to attract monsters, so it is a high probability event that a monster's lair will randomly appear next to the glowing crystal veins underground. Especially in the high-production period decades ago, it was almost like digging a mine to produce a bunch of monsters. Although the reserves of sparkling crystals in the mine here are now reduced, there are still dangerous monsters sleeping below if they are not kept.

So every day when these miners are working, their families are also scared outside, for fear of hearing the news that another monster nest has been dug in the mine...

Therefore, when Fangzheng announced that it would replace manual mining with fully automatic mining equipment, most of the families of the miners in Mainzli were quite in favor.

"When we came here, we saw someone yelling outside the mine. What's going on?"

At this moment, Eileen also asked curiously. Hearing her question, several miners looked at each other in embarrassment, and then the leader miner sighed.

"Hey, that's Bonn. How should I put it... This kid is considered a tyrant in the mine. He has gathered a group of people and is not doing business all day long. I heard that the brand new vein that was explored this time came from Bonn and his group. It was found in the mine dug out there, so they asked for half of the mining rights, but the consul must not agree, so he brought people to make trouble. He said that he would not agree to their conditions, so he would not let them The machines are transported in to mine.”

Having said this, the leading miner snorted softly.

"If you want me to say, this guy is used to domineering, relying on his father as a foreman, he dares to think of any idea..."

After complaining a few more words, these miners stopped talking and started drinking and chatting. At this moment, the three girls quietly left the hotel and found a place to gather.

"I suggest that we split up and collect intelligence next."

Miao Jie quickly put forward her suggestion, and the other two also nodded.

"I'm going to see what happened to the group of miners surrounding the mine gate."

Alfin was the first to speak. For some reason, after hearing what the miners said before, her heart suddenly moved. Miaojie and Eilein were stunned when they heard her words.

"Do you want me to go with you? It's dangerous over there."

Elfin asked with some anxiety, while Alfin shook his head with a smile.

"It's okay, I have my own measure."

"Then it's settled. Miss Eileen and I will go to the town to continue collecting information. Your Highness Alfin, I will leave the mine to you."

Miao Jie didn't say anything. She greeted Alfin and pulled Elfin out of the way. Alfin was silent for a moment, then turned around and walked up the mountain path along the stairs, and then came to the top of the mountain. At the mine gate.

At this moment, there were also many miners with big arms and round waists. They stood there viciously and stared at the soldiers guarding the mine, but the latter just stood there quietly, motionless with their weapons in their hands. Although these miners put on a vicious look, they didn't dare to move when they saw the weapons in each other's hands.

If it were an ordinary person, seeing this group of miners probably would have run away in fright, but Alfin was the imperial princess after all, and during the civil war, she also followed Fang Zhengman around the empire, and she had never seen any posture. So she tidied up her appearance, then ran over quietly with a face of curiosity, looked at everyone carefully, and then walked to a miner not far away and asked.

"Excuse me, what are you doing here?"

"Who are you?"

Hearing Alfin's inquiry, the miner turned his head to look at Alfin and raised his eyebrows.

"Go, go, what are you doing here, a little girl, just stay here!"

Facing the miner's raised eyebrows and straight eyes, instead of being frightened, Alfin found it very interesting. She was the imperial daughter in the empire, even if it was the hostile noble camp during the civil war, they would be polite when they saw her, how could anyone blow their noses and stare like this?

Instead of Crown Prince Cedric, I am afraid that his legs will be weak now, but Alfin is not only not afraid, but also feels a little irritated. She didn't pay attention to the miner's driving, but took two steps forward.

"Can you talk to me? I'm... an intern reporter for Liber Weekly, and I'm very interested in the situation here."

"Are you a reporter?"

"Intern reporter, I'm from Libel, please give me more advice."

Alfin is not a fool, she originally wanted to say that she was an intern reporter of the Imperial News Agency, but then she thought that the reputation of the Empire and the Republic in Crossbell is not very good, so she simply used Liber as a cover-up.

"this……………"

Looking at Alfin, the miner frowned. Although Alfin looked like a little girl, she had a good aura as a royal, so after a while, the miner also nodded, and then said to the crowd Li beckoned.

"Hey, boss, come here, a reporter is here!"

"Oh?"

Hearing the miner's yell, soon, another miner with a big arm and a round waist and a body as strong as a bear strode over from the crowd. He was also taken aback when he saw Alfin.

"Are you a reporter?"

"Yes, I'm an intern reporter for "Libel Weekly", may I ask you a few questions?"

So I have never eaten pork and I have seen pigs run. As the princess, Alfin has also accepted several interviews in the empire, and now she is learning decently. And the other party was just a local Crossbell mine tyrant who had never seen anything in the world, so she was really confused by Alfin's tricks, and nodded subconsciously.

"go ahead."

"So... I would like to ask, are you here..."

"You don't know yet! That damned consul, he's going to rob our mine!"

Hearing this, the miner leader immediately shouted.

"Grabbing mines?"

"Yeah, did you know? When Crossbell became independent, he announced an order saying that all the land in Crossbell would be nationalized. We only have the right to use, not ownership!"

"what!?"

Hearing this, Alfin was really stunned. She could almost imagine that if the empire implemented this kind of law, then the nobles would probably rise up against it...... Oh, no, they have already turned against it.

"It's very domineering."

Seeing the shocked expression of the cute little girl in front of him, the miner leader also felt complacent and continued talking.

"This is a mine dug by our ancestors for generations. How could it be given to others? Huh, that man wants to occupy this mine, so I won't give him this chance! I want to show him how powerful our miners are!"

"However, I heard people down below say that a brand new automatic mining equipment is going to be adopted..."

"That's all an excuse!!"

The miner leader snorted coldly and interrupted Alfin's words.

"He just wants to find a way to drive us away! This is a mine developed by our ancestors for generations, how could a group of brats come to do it? Just kidding, you didn't see who the people who operate the machines are, a group of young brats Head, I suspect they don’t even know how to take a pickaxe! This mine was discovered by my grandfather at the time, and it has been mined until now! Now he deliberately built a broken machine, saying that if he can’t learn it, he won’t be allowed to enter the mine? This is simply making things difficult for us! We will never agree!"

“……………………”

Facing the roar of the miner's boss, Alfin nodded and listened from time to time, but at the same time, the expression in her eyes became much more serious.

Although it is not appropriate to say this, but... Alfin feels that these miners and those nobles...seem very similar.
