Chapter 1315: Winning Over
The elixir refining lasted for more than ten days. Wang Hao opened the furnace three times in total, succeeded twice, and obtained nineteen Jiangyun Pills.
After Wang Hao put away the alchemy furnace, he continued to mine and dug ten pieces of spiritual jade in a row. Neither of the two guards came over.
Wang Hao's heart moved, and he took the initiative to carry the bag and walked towards the two of them.
"Two senior brothers, this is the spiritual jade I have mined these days," Wang Hao took the initiative to hand over the bag and quietly stuffed a jade bottle into their hands!
"Junior Brother Wang, what are you..."
Wang Hao glanced at the other miner who was huddled in the corner and was sleeping soundly, and whispered: "This is the Jiangyun Pill refined by my junior brother. Although it is a lower realm pill, it can still improve the spiritual cultivation of cultivators." For the sake of the results, I have been taken care of by two senior brothers these days, so small gifts are not disrespectful!"
Their eyes lit up. Qin Gang took off the cork of the bottle, sniffed it gently, and showed a satisfied look.
"Junior brother, we are the guards and you are the miner. If anyone knows about this..."
Wang Hao whispered: "Senior brother Qin, this matter is known to heaven and earth. You know it and I know it. Do you still want to tell others? Or are there any means of checking you and me here? Junior brother will not ask the two senior brothers to do it." What's the matter? It's just that junior brother likes to be quiet, such as when refining alchemy..."
"Oh, easy to say, easy to say. Anyway, there is no one else here. Junior brother can do whatever he wants. There is no need to test the spiritual jade piece by piece. Most of them are useless jade anyway."
Sun Sheng accepted the elixir and said with a smile.
This kind of cultivation-enhancing elixir, even if it is a fifth-level low-grade pill, is worth at least three or four pieces of spiritual jade. As guards, their monthly salary is three times that of the miners, which is three pieces of spiritual jade. Maybe Not enough to buy one!
Moreover, other miners can get extra income from mining. After completing the task, they will get two spiritual jade, which is not much worse than their income.
If the mining area they guard produces more, they will also receive rewards. But if they are assigned to mining area No. 10, how can they get this extra reward?
To be honest, they are just like Wang Hao, they are all depressed and frustrated people who were sent here!
Wang Hao is so generous and polite in his words, so naturally they reciprocate within the licensing rights!
In this way, there is more room for maneuver. Although the two said they could focus on detection, Wang Hao could not completely trust them. Hiding the spirit jade secretly was not advisable!
But he can use it for practice. He has an integrated small spirit gathering array in his hand. With a slight change, he can replace the spirit stone with a spirit jade.
If you mine for a mine, you only get fifty yuan to get one piece. How can it be cost-effective for you to use it yourself?
With the Spirit Gathering Array, Wang Hao's dependence on elixirs will be reduced a lot, achieving the purpose of saving spirit jade.
However, all these beautiful visions are based on smooth operation. Although the integrated spirit gathering array is small, after stimulating the spiritual energy, you can still detect something fishy!
Of course there is a way, and it would be best to bring the two guards together and practice together. In this way, both parties have something to do with each other, and no one can report them.
But there are still difficulties. There is still one person in the mining area. He is an old man with a white beard. He mines for a while and then takes a long break. According to Sun Sheng, this person has been mining here for who knows how many years, and he just Only in that area, there was no movement at all. When the two brothers came to guard, the old man was already there!
The old man usually huddled in the corner and couldn't dig out a piece of spiritual jade for several days. He never came over to talk to them. When Sun Sheng went to check the spiritual jade, the old man threw the bag away without saying a word.
If Sun Sheng hadn't heard this man speak, he would have suspected that he was mute!
After Wang Hao heard this, he thought deeply. When things go wrong, there must be monsters. This old man looks like a frail man who cannot collect enough spiritual jade and is trapped here for life.
But Wang Hao found that this man had a calm aura and was by no means as weak as he looked.
Regardless of this person, the great cause of cultivation cannot be delayed. Winning over Sun Sheng and the two is not something that happens overnight. Being able to refine elixirs here is already a breakthrough. Wang Hao plans to test it again when he goes to the mine next cycle, step by step. to bring the two of them together.
Once they have taken enough of their own elixirs and their interests are tied together, the rest will be easy.
Wang Hao returned to the deserted corner and dug for another half day. Feeling that he had enough experience, he sat cross-legged in the newly dug pit, swallowed a pill of Jiangyundan, and started practicing!
This practice lasted for nearly two months. Sun Sheng and the others turned their eyes over several times and saw that Wang Hao had entered samadhi without saying anything more.
Until one day, a bell came from the mine, and Sun Sheng shouted to Wang Hao: "Junior brother Wang, it's time to call it a day. Get up quickly. You clean up, and I will take you to hand over the spiritual jade!"
Wang Hao opened his eyes, stood up, dusted off his body, and walked towards Sun Sheng with the bag in hand. The old man also walked over tremblingly!
"Senior Brother Sun, Senior Brother Qin, thank you very much!"
Sun Sheng said: "Junior Brother Wang, how's your harvest? Seeing that you are concentrating on meditating, you don't seem to be doing much mining?"
Wang Hao nodded and said: "It's almost more than a hundred yuan. This mining area is quite good. Maybe no one comes here. Two senior brothers, are there many people mining together in other mining areas?"
"Yes, there are at least ten people mining in other mining areas, and there are also more than ten or even twenty people. However, they belong to different teams and are led by different steward brothers. They do not know each other. The guards in the mining area will also give They plan fixed areas to avoid disputes, unlike here, it’s just you two weirdos and there’s no need to divide them!”
Qin Gang pointed at the old man and said, the old man remained unmoved and silently dropped the bag containing the jade, waiting for the two of them to count it!
Sun Sheng and Qin Gang had long been used to it. They pursed their lips and began to count their harvest. They only made a preliminary count and recorded the data. When it was time to put it into the warehouse, they would count it again.
Sun Sheng led them through the mines one after another and soon came to a heavily guarded place.
Many monks came to hand over the spiritual jade under the leadership of guards, and there was a long queue. Wang Hao also saw people in his group, but he did not find Chu Xun and Lin Fan!
Soon it was Wang Hao's turn. A steward took Wang Hao's bag and poured out all the jade.
He knocked on the table impatiently, "Take out the identity token!"
"Oh, I'm sorry, it's my first time to go to the mine. I don't know the process, so I wasted my senior brother's time," Wang Hao said politely, and quickly handed over his identity token!
The steward took the token and suddenly exclaimed, "Hmm? Mining Area No. 10, why are there so many?"
"I just have better luck. Senior brother, I don't know what the rules are? It's my first time here, so I want you to give me some advice!"
Wang Hao said politely, this person seems to be quite friendly, otherwise Wang Hao would not talk to him!
"It's very simple. After I finish counting and you confirm that it is correct, just sign it!"
The steward quickly counted all the spiritual jade and wrote a number of one hundred and eighty-three on the account book. He also recorded a sum on Wang Hao's identity token!
