Chapter 55 The Shocking Change in the Blood Crystal Mine
Chapter 55 Shock in the Blood Crystal Mine
There are two strings of necklaces, each string is made of strange beads. The beads are the same size, about the size of cherries, and emit colorful brilliance. These beads are called colorful pearls and are extremely precious.
Ximentai smiled and said: "It's a small gift, but it's not respectful, so please accept it."
The two necklaces are by no means a small gift. The value of each necklace is no less than one hundred blood crystals. There is more than one currency in Tianyuan Continent. Blood crystals, Yuan crystals, and Xuan crystals can also be circulated.
Chen Xue glanced at it lightly and said, "Thank you very much."
Chen Shuang smiled and asked the maid to accept the gift and said, "Why should Mr. Ximen be so polite?"
After Ximentai gave the gift, he turned his attention to Li Xing. From the moment he entered the hall, he never looked at Li Xing. Although he always smiled very kindly, Li Xing felt that kind of arrogance coming from the bottom of his heart.
out.
"What do you call this person?" Ximentai asked with a smile.
Chen Shuang smiled and said: "He is the son of the Li family in Sanyiyuan, Li Xing."
Ximentai's eyes flashed: "It turns out to be that wild... Haha, I've admired his name for a long time." In front of beautiful women, men are born enemies. The first time Ximentai saw Li Xing, he felt extremely unhappy. This is a kind of
Intuition. So, he deliberately pretended to make a slip of the tongue.
But Li Xing couldn't tell that he meant "bastard". This kind of humiliation was more embarrassing than saying it directly.
Li Xing's expression was indifferent. He did not stand up or even raise his eyelids: "I don't dare to take it seriously."
Ximentai was angry. As the son of the city lord, he was treated with respect wherever he went. Who could be as rude as Li Xing?
Chen Shuang also heard the unkindness in Ximentai's words, frowned and said, "Brother Li, I have something to tell you." She nodded slightly to Ximentai, and the two of them went to the back of the hall.
Entering a soundproof room, Chen Shuang said: "This person is Ximen Tai. His father Ximen Nu is the lord of Feilong City and a national scholar with the second level of Qi training. The purpose of this person's coming is to marry with Sanyi Garden."
"Why did he go to the blood crystal mine?" Li Xing was confused.
"You don't know something. Ximentai is well versed in mining and can tell the location and output of mineral veins. Blood crystals are very precious. There is only one mineral vein in Sanyi Garden, and they have always been mined with great care."
"Ximentai is here to help estimate how many blood crystals are left. Therefore, you can fight with him openly and secretly, but be sure not to make the fight superficial, so as not to affect the ore exploration."
Li Xing said lightly: "I know the importance." After a pause, "I want to know, how many blood crystals can the blood crystal mine in Sanyiyuan produce every year?"
Chen Shuang said: "The big blood crystal mines are controlled by big forces. The mine in Sanyiyuan can produce 10,000 to 13,000 blood crystals every year."
"You said you were going to the mine to check the accounts, whose account was it?" He didn't know much about Sanyi Garden. Taking this opportunity, Li Xing wanted to ask more about the situation. After all, he would be going there soon, so he would know more
These things are not bad things.
Chen Shuang explained: "There are three surnames in Sanyi Garden, Chen Libai, and the three surnames take turns to preside over the mining of blood crystal mines. Therefore, when one party is in charge of mining, the other two parties have the right to audit the accounts. This is a common practice. You must know that the blood crystals mined
, 60% will be handed over to the Qiyun Sect, 20% will be handed over to the princes above, and Sanyi Garden will only get 10%. If someone enriches his own pocket, it will have extremely bad consequences."
The two talked for a while and then returned to the living room. Ximen Taizheng was talking endlessly in front of Chen Xue. When he saw Li Xing coming out, he stopped talking and glanced at Li Xing coldly.
Li Xing was too lazy to pay attention to this person, while Chen Xue stood up and said, "It's time to go."
The four people soon mounted a fast horse and galloped towards the blood crystal mine under the jurisdiction of Sanyiyuan.
The four horses, all BMWs, run very fast. The blood crystal mine is about a hundred miles away from Sanyi Garden and will be there in half an hour.
Sitting on the horse, Li Xing saw a tall and solid wall from a distance. On the tall wall, every three or five meters, there was a pavilion with people standing on it. Each of these people was holding a fine
Strong crossbows. At the same time, they are all warriors with at least the fifth level of blood training.
There was a gate built on the front of the high wall. As soon as the four people arrived, the gate opened and two warriors came out. The two men said respectfully: "You two ladies, the account books are ready. Please go into the accounting room to check the accounts."
These two people were the mine managers sent by the Li family, and they knew about the audit in advance.
Chen Xue nodded, and the group of people rode through the gate.
Once inside, Li Xing saw that this place was a mine. Low stone houses were built in rows one after another. Farther away, there were continuous mines, with hundreds of people working in and out of the mines.
out.
Li Xing and Chen Shuang walked side by side. Chen Shuang pointed to the low stone room and said: "That's where the miners eat and rest. There are about five thousand miners in this blood crystal mine. They have all made mistakes in Qingyun City over the years."
people."
Needless to say, Li Xing also knew that the situation of these miners was not good. He looked at it and asked about the situation.
Unknowingly, we arrived at a two-story stone building. The warrior who led the way said: "Please come into the room."
Chen Shuang looked back and said with a smile: "Sister, I'll check the accounts. You and Li Xing will accompany Mr. Ximen to check the mineral veins."
This was something the two sisters had discussed long ago, and Chen Xue nodded.
Chen Shuang entered the room to check the accounts. Li Xing and Ximentai walked beside Chen Xue and headed for the mine. A mine supervisor accompanied them. As he walked, he said: "The miners are rude. You don't need to pay any attention to me for a while."
Soon, they arrived in front of a mine. A group of miners walked out of the cave holding large rocks. All of these people were very strong, with strong steel chains on their feet and hands. Most of them were blood-trained figures.
Their clothes were in tatters, and each of them had a cruel and cruel light in their eyes.
When a beautiful woman like Chen Xue appeared, the miners' eyes lit up, and some immediately smiled strangely at Chen Shuang.
"Beauty, come and accompany me!" A tall and strong man laughed wildly.
"Seeking death!" A guard next to the cave threw away the chain and beat him.
"collapse!"
The iron chain made a strange roar and was pulled down hard, but was bounced away by the blood outside the big man's body. He was not injured at all.
"This person is at least the seventh level of blood training. There is such a master among the miners." Li Xing was surprised.
Ximentai sneered, and suddenly pulled out a dagger from his waist. The dagger flashed with cold light, obviously of extraordinary quality. When he saw the dagger, a trace of vigilance flashed in the big man's eyes, and he stared at Ximentai as he approached.
Ximentai sneered: "You seek death! How dare you be rude to Miss Chen Xue!" He dodged, rushed over from the side, and stabbed with a dagger.
The big man immediately turned around and used the steel chain in his hand to block the attack.
"Ding!"
The big man's movements were so agile that he actually blocked Ximentai's stabbing knife.
The fire splashed, and the steel chain restraining the big man was actually cut off with a knife. This time, the big man was free, laughed loudly, swung half of the steel chain with his left and right hands, and took the initiative to attack Ximentai.
