Ye Qian drove the car all the way. Although the cars in this Jiuzhou realm are not very good, they can still withstand driving up to 130 miles. The main reason is that the roads here are not very good, and the world is respected by warriors.
Here, everything is to serve warriors, such as cars, public roads, etc. It is already good to be able to build it like it is now.
Ye Qian drove straight to Mianshan City. For about six hours, before dawn, the car had already arrived outside Mianshan City. Ye Qian did not stop and sped directly towards Mianshui Ling Mine.
Arriving near the mining area, Ye Qian's car slowed down. He was a little surprised that this place was actually very barren! Logically speaking, since there is a spiritual mine formed here, it should be rich in products. However, Ye Qian
What you can vaguely see in the darkness is decay and devastation!
"What's going on?" Ye Qian was a little confused. When he was still more than ten kilometers away from the mining area, Ye Qian stopped the car, and then he walked towards the mining area. There were people dying of drought everywhere on the road.
The plants, the spiritual energy here cannot be said to be too abundant. The key is that the environment is harsh, and even many of the trees are dead.
Ye Qian sped up. He wanted to rush to the mining area before dawn, and then find an opportunity to get into the mining area. From a distance, Ye Qian saw a castle-like building in front of him. The castle was very majestic, although it was not
It is relatively high, but from a distance, it is brightly lit and covers a large area. It is almost like a palace. No, it should be said that it is much bigger than the palace.
Ye Qian frowned. When the sky was dim and bright, Ye Qian finally walked outside the castle. Outside the castle was a small town. This town was slowly formed, relying on the castle, and then these vegetable sellers appeared around it.
, small vendors selling breakfast, clothes, etc.
Therefore, although it is a town, it is better to say that it is just a simple gathering place. At this time, in this town, in addition to these people selling things, there are also many ragged people lying in various sheltered places. These people
They all looked a little haggard.
Ye Qian was stunned for a moment. He originally planned to go directly into the castle, because the castle must be the mining area. But when he saw the clothes of these people, Ye Qian hesitated. It seemed that most of the people here were wearing
It's quite shabby. If you go in wearing this clothes, someone will probably find out in minutes.
Ye Qian was about to exchange the clothes he was wearing with another person. At this time, the conversation between the two people in front of him attracted Ye Qian.
"Son, please eat this steamed bun." The old woman whispered, her voice trembling.
Next to the old woman was a very thin man. The man shook his head, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Mom, eat it quickly. This is what I gave you. Eat it quickly. I'm not hungry."
"Nonsense, you haven't eaten for three days. How can you not be hungry? Come on, eat quickly." The old woman stuffed the bun into the man's hand and said, "Son, you must eat. Eat until you are full."
Only if you become a miner can you apply for a job as a miner. Only if you become a miner can the two of us avoid starving to death."
"Mom! Mom, don't say that. Let's have two people, half for each person, half for each other." The man said, broke the bun in his hand into two halves, and then gave most of the bun to the person next to him.
old woman.
The old woman nodded, but she did not eat. Instead, she watched the man wolf down half of the steamed bun. Then the old woman handed the steamed bun in her hand to the man, "Good boy, eat more."
Eat, hurry up, eat more."
The man refused desperately.
Ye Qian felt inexplicably sad when he saw it. He walked over and said, "Mother-in-law, brother, you...well, I'll treat you two to breakfast, okay."
The man and the old woman were stunned for a moment and looked at Ye Qian, wondering where Ye Qian came from.
Ye Qian cupped his hands, and then sat directly on the ground next to the two of them. Without any pretense, he said: "That's it, I want to ask you about something, and in return, I will treat you to breakfast."
,Ok."
"Ah, why are you so embarrassed?" the old woman said, putting the steamed bun into the man's hand, "Child, look, we are going to have breakfast, so hurry up and eat the steamed bun."
The man nodded, then wolfed down the steamed buns directly into his stomach. It looked like he hadn't eaten in several days.
Ye Qian and the mother and daughter walked towards a restaurant. Although the breakfast was very simple, even unpalatable, just soup noodles with pickles, even the old woman ate three large bowls.
Ye Qian was afraid that these two people would be exhausted, so he didn't let them eat anymore. During the meal, Ye Qian found out that this man's name was Gou Sheng, because the rules here were similar to those in Huaxia Mountain Village, so he thought it was an unpleasant name.
A name can keep you safe, easy to provide for, and prevent you from dying prematurely.
"Why are you so hungry?" Ye Qian asked.
Gou Sheng sighed. Although he was very poor, it could be seen that he was very filial. He said: "Sir, to tell you the truth, we have always had famine here. It was just that we could survive in the past, but this year
, not a drop of rain fell, and the crops were harvested. Even the wild vegetables and wild fruits in the surrounding mountains were not eaten. Many people really starved to death this year. Now the country is also in chaos. No one cares about us. We are the only ones.
My only hope is to work in this mining area. Only by working here can I get enough wages to support two people."
"Huh?" Ye Qian looked at Gou Sheng, "So, you're here to find a job? Are you going to be a miner?"
Gou Sheng nodded, "Yes, we recruit workers here every other month, and today happened to be the time to recruit workers, so my mother and I rushed back as early as possible."
"Hey!" Gou Sheng's mother next to her sighed and said, "Actually, it's even more difficult to work here. This mining area is so big. Why do we recruit people once a month? Even if it's not safe to work there,
Every other month, people had to be found to supplement the work. Many people went to work as miners and were either crushed to death or exhausted. Some were beaten to death by supervisors, and many were disabled.
I can't work anymore, so I keep recruiting people. In the past, I would never let Gou Sheng work there, but this year, I really can't stand it any longer. I can't get through the day."
After listening to Gou Sheng's mother's words, Ye Qian suddenly remembered the article about harsh government being fiercer than tigers. This can be regarded as a real-life example. He knew that this mining area was very dangerous, but he still had to work here. This was indeed a very difficult situation.
What a shame and sadness.
Ye Qian sighed, touched his body, and then said: "Well, how about making a deal. Give me your clothes and your name, and I will give you a car and
This money." Ye Qian said.
"Ah?" Gou Sheng looked at Ye Qian strangely.
Ye Qian took Gou Sheng and his mother out to a quiet place and said, "I'm not kidding, can you drive? If you can't drive, I will give you something of equal value later."
Exchanged.”
Gou Sheng shook his head.
Ye Qian took out all the money he had on him. The key was that there were still a few spirit stones in the money.
Seeing those spiritual stones, Gou Sheng almost fainted. He quickly waved his hands and said, "Sir, sir, please stop playing with me. This... this thing is very valuable. I... I don't dare to accept it."
Ye Qian put the spirit stone into Gou Sheng's hand and said: "It's normal that you don't dare to accept it, but Gou Sheng, your opportunity has come now. You can rely on this money in the future without having to let your mother suffer anymore."
Hungry, think about it, this is an opportunity for you to stay away from here and buy a house in Mianshan City to live. For your mother, you need to be bold!"
"I...I..." Gudong, Gou Sheng swallowed, and then he held the spirit stone tightly and said: "Yes, you said...right! I...I thank you, thank you!"
After saying that, Gou Sheng knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Ye Qian.
Ye Qian just nodded casually and pulled Gou Sheng up. Then he exchanged clothes with Gou Sheng, and then took Gou Sheng's ID card. Then Ye Qian said: "Okay, you go.
Let’s go and live in Mianshan City.”
Gou Sheng and his mother were very grateful to Ye Qian. Although they felt that Ye Qian was strange, they did not ask any more questions. After all, people who can casually take out a few spiritual stones are definitely not ordinary people. These people have strange thoughts.
, it is normal to think differently from ordinary people.
Gou Sheng left with his mother.
Ye Qian wiped it on his body a few times, looked at his ID card, then smiled, and then walked towards the gate of the mining castle.
It was already getting dark at this time, and dozens of ragged people were queuing up at the gate of the castle, holding ID cards in their hands, waiting anxiously. Many of them were extremely hungry, and most of them were skinny.
of.
Ye Qian breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he came at a good time. Fortunately, he listened to Liang Yun and rushed over overnight. This way it would be much easier to sneak into the mining area. As long as he had a legal identity, he could enter the mining area.
Inside, you can always find opportunities to dismantle those detonators.
Ye Qian lined up at the back with peace of mind. Not long after, there was a creak, and the castle gate rang, and then the small door on the side of the castle gate opened. The castle wall was twenty meters high and several meters thick. It was basically
A small city wall was built. The main gate was not opened, but a small door was opened. Obviously, these miners were not taken seriously.
A middle-aged man with a big belly came out. He was holding a whip in his hand and a machine in the other hand. He said impatiently: "Anyone who wants to be a miner, please come in. Let me make it clear first that miners
The work is not easy, and for those who are weak, let me tell you, if you get into an accident or are exhausted to death, our master will not be responsible, so you should consider it carefully before entering...
