The Shi brothers were thinking about how to balance among the monks. It is a very profound knowledge. If you don't do it well, you will get into trouble.
Who contracts the mine? The stationed monks have a very strong say. Even if they don't replace you, no one can stand it if they come to trouble you every now and then. How much money can you make by running a normal mine? You don't have to rely on those crooked ways in private.
?
As soon as the monk takes it seriously, all the money and water will be lost immediately, and the business will become worthless.
Will Taoist Chao continue to be stationed? Or will this new immortal master take over? Before you figure it out, you must not make a bet easily, otherwise there will be an abyss behind.
Nodding and bowing, "Master Immortal also invites us to talk inside the room. We have prepared fine immortal tea here, as well as some local specialties..."
Hou Zi smiled and nodded, not refusing. People have good intentions, so it's not good to be too cold, right?
While accompanying him inside to pay his respects, he keenly noticed that Shi Laosan was gradually lagging behind, turned a corner, and then ran away quickly. This was to spread the news.
This is what should be said in the question. No one dares to offend the little thoughts of ordinary people. Life is also very hard, so he can understand it.
I sat down with Shi Lao and Shi Lao for tea, enjoying the vast sea and sky. They talked about the local customs and customs of Sangmu Island, the characteristics of ocean currents, and the general mineral resources.
I also received some souvenirs. They are really souvenirs. What good gifts can these mortals give? The main thing I want to give is my thoughts and respect.
Before the conversation could get deeper, spiritual consciousness rushed down from the sky; Mr. Shi was still at a loss, but Hou Zi knew the hidden meaning of it all too well.
He chuckled, "Your old benefactor seems a little unable to sit still?"
He came out through the window and stood in the air. A hundred feet away, a Taoist with a high crown was glaring angrily.
"This fellow Taoist has crossed the line!"
Hou Zi said nonchalantly, "Crossing the boundary? Crossing what boundary? I like the scenery here very much. It has plenty of oil and water, and the living facilities are complete, which is exactly what I want."
I heard that my fellow Taoist term is coming soon and he will return soon. Is there any problem if I come here to see about my future territory?
Firstly, I did not provoke you, and secondly, I did not affect the operation of the mine. What crime is there?
Why, your Wumen’s islands and reefs have become your own private land, and you don’t even allow others to come up and have a look?"
Chao Buzhi's eyes grew colder. He received a report from the Shi family brothers that the newly arrived demon sect kid had the intention to get involved in Sangmu Island. He had never heard of this matter, but he would rather believe it than actually believe it.
none.
It is true that his term of office is approaching, and he has no intention of staying in Linhai Country anymore. When this term is over, he will return to the Wu Clan and find another high-level job, so it is true that there is a fight over the ownership of Sangmu Island; but what the Wu Clan is working on is to take this place.
The island belongs to other sects, preferably Buddhism or Taihao, or even other demonic sects, as long as it is not the Quanzhen Sect.
This is something that Wu Clan is working on privately, so the arrival of the sword cultivator this time made him very vigilant. He has already sent a message back to Mirage City and is still confirming it, but this will take time.
He couldn't let this guy investigate the output of the mine, as this would have an impact on him; among all the monks who were dispatched, it was normal to rely on the mountains and rivers to rely on them, especially those who were about to leave like him.
It is a very common situation to get a big vote.
Everyone understands, as long as no one can catch him; no one knows that he will return to Wumen to take a higher position, and they all think that he will serve another term in Linhai. This is a smoke bomb.
Therefore, the secret of smuggling ores that he colluded with the Shi brothers must not be known to this swordsman. Otherwise, not only will the wealth he has saved over the years be turned over, but he will also face a huge fine. The master will not
Bear all this for him.
He had to drive this guy away, but doing it directly was the stupidest way, and he didn't even bother to do it.
"It's useless to talk too much. Since fellow Taoist insists on doing this, don't blame me for not predicting what I said. Your demon sect is arrogant and domineering, so you have to look at where you are. I'll say this so you can take care of yourself."
Chao Buzhi threatened and warned, but did not teach him a lesson, which surprised Hou Zi; this is a Taoist who is in the spiritual realm, and his realm is still above him, so there is no reason to be afraid of him. So, what is the meaning of such false threats?
for what?
In fact, there was no need to bother guessing. When he returned to the mine, he saw the smiling third son of the Shi family present, and the boss Shi began to be secretive when answering his questions.
It was nothing more than buying time, colluding with the Shi brothers, and establishing an offensive and defensive alliance.
The Shi brothers began to make concessions, especially when it came to the balance of mineral expenditures, which left Hou Zi with no idea what to do. Obviously, the Shi brothers had already made their choice. The reason why they could turn to Chao Buzhi so quickly was not because of Wu Men's comparison.
The Quanzhen Sect is more powerful, and it is more likely that they have control over themselves and cannot control themselves.
How could it be possible that after all these years of cooperation, there would be less tricks?
He does not have the right to attack mortals, which is a bit false; if he has the ability, he can search for souls in an instant, and even the person being searched is not aware of it. The problem is that he does not have this ability. For the application of the upper Dantian sea of consciousness,
That falls within the scope of abilities of Jindan monks.
If he wants to ask something, he can't avoid the method of torture and threats, which is too obvious.
"Is there any record of the mineral volume of Sangmu Island in previous years?"
"Yes, but we will only record it for three years. No matter how many records there are, they will all be kept by the island owner. This is also the rule of all mining islands."
"How many years have you three brothers been working on Sangmu Island?"
"Master Haojiao learned that our Shi family is a family mining company, inherited from father to son. Therefore, although it has been less than twenty years since I took over this place, my Shi family has been cultivating Sangmu Island for more than a hundred years, and there has never been any mistakes.
Lihai Jiedufu is also often praised.
Most of the miners on Sangmu Island were recruited from the mainland by our Shi family, as were the subsidized industries. The immortal master didn't know that Sangmu Island was very desolate at the time, and no one was willing to come. In order to persuade people to come to the island, we didn't do anything.
Take less effort..."
Hou Ting smiled slightly, these three brothers of the Shi family are also human beings, and they cannot do this if they are not human beings. There are only two meanings in their words.
One is that the Shi family is also a well-established existence in Jiedu Mansion, and may not be able to be manipulated casually by you.
One is that Sangmu Island is under the control of the Shi family. If you were in my shoes, this mine would probably not be able to continue.
It is also a boast, but also a threat. It vaguely reveals the dispute between you cultivators and your intention not to involve our Shi family.
"Twenty years is not a short time! You have served several island owners, right?"
Mr. Shi answered the questions related to minerals very seriously. This is also because he sincerely does not want to offend the cultivators. Monks generally do not make things difficult for ordinary people, but what if they encounter someone who is arrogant and unreasonable?
Chao Buzhi only said that everything about the lapis lazuli mine should be kept strictly confidential, but he did not say that he would not cooperate with all issues. For a businessman like him, of course, he should try his best to keep a straight line as a person. Who knows about this fairy?
Will the teacher really go to the island and become the island owner in the future?
"Three terms, I have served three island owners."
Hou Zi said casually, "Oh? That's quite a lot. You are also a blessed person. So, which country do you think has the most reasonable monks? Which sect has the most arrogant monks?"
