Chapter 70 Human life is at stake

The next day, dawn broke and Jiang Wang had just finished his morning classes when Shuanzi came over to greet him.

It is said that the young master of the mine is back and wants to summon all the monks who have worked hard to guard the mine.

From Shuanzi's eyes, Jiang Wang saw the uneasiness and fear that he tried his best to hide.

He knew last night that Hu Shaomeng was coming back, but he didn't expect to come back so soon.

And judging from this posture, he probably came directly to the mining area without even returning home.

"Okay, I get it."

Jiang Wang didn't say anything else, and let Xiaoxiao, the maid who got up early, sweep the yard, and then went to the place where everyone in the mine was discussing matters.

The loveless uncle monk moved forward, Zhang Hai who was obsessed with alchemy, Ge Heng who was narrow-minded, and Jiang Wang were the four extraordinary monks who are now in Hu's mine.

Together with Manager Hu, they formed the so-called top management of the mining area.

Hu You is fat and looks more like a wealthy businessman than an official.

His son Hu Shaomeng is handsome, slender and straight.

He was sitting in the main seat with a golden sword. Manager Hu, who always liked to brag that he was the uncle of Hu Shaomeng's family, was standing aside respectfully.

Judging from Hu Shaomeng's sitting posture and demeanor, he should be a quite conceited person.

Jiang Wang and others came in one after another, but he didn't say anything.

He waited until all four extraordinary monks had arrived, and then slowly said: "You have worked hard in my Hu's mine for so long. I am busy practicing in Diaohai Tower. It is really rude that I don't come to see you more often."

He said he was being disrespectful, but he didn't care about anything.

But even the narrow-minded old man Ge didn't dare to pick a fight.

Because Diaohailou is the most powerful sect on the offshore islands. If we must calculate the influence of the sects near Qi State, it is probably on par with Dongwang Valley.

"Where, where..."

Ge Heng was halfway polite when he was interrupted by Hu Shaomeng waving his hand.

"I invite you all here today because I have something to inform you." Hu Shaomeng said calmly: "You also know that the mine is about to be exhausted. The mine has decided to close at the end of this month. I will inform you in advance and ask you to find another job.

."

Jiang Wang was stunned for a moment.

What do you mean? You just got here and you got fired?

Manager Hu looked surprised and obviously didn't know anything about it beforehand.

The unshaven man stepped forward and yawned: "Okay, it doesn't matter, it doesn't make any difference where you go anyway. Alas, life is like this."

Ge Heng glared at him fiercely, then looked at Hu Shaomeng, confused and said: "Isn't there still half a year? Why is it suddenly going to be closed?"

"Yes." Zhang Hai also said: "My furnace of pills is at a critical moment."

"That's it." Hu Shaomeng didn't bother to say more and waved his hand as a farewell: "Go back and pack your things. You can leave now or at the end of the month. I'm going to open the gate of heaven and earth right away and I don't have time to tell you more!

"

Push the gate of heaven and earth...

Ge Heng closed his mouth tightly.

"Master Hu." Jiang Wang said aloud: "I have just arrived at the mine, it has only been a few days. That's not what Manager Hu said when he was recruiting people."

"The remuneration is paid monthly." Hu Shaomeng looked at him, his aura of Heavenly Realm revealed intentionally or unintentionally: "How about it, do you still have any opinions?"

Jiang Wang thought for a moment and then said, "No more."

That's not to say that he gave up, but Hu Shaomeng acted so aggressively, which gave him reassurance.

There must have been some kind of accident.

He could leave first, wait until the change occurs, and then come back to see what is going on and wait for the opportunity.

Although Diaohai Tower is strong, at the level of Tongtian Realm, Jiang Wang really has no one to fear now.

Hu Shaomeng waved his hand: "Okay, you go and settle your remuneration with the steward, I won't accompany you."

Only these extraordinary monks must be appeased and resolved by him personally. The rest of the ordinary warriors and miners can be shut down directly without any prior notice.

Manager Hu seemed to become depressed all of a sudden, as if he still couldn't believe the fact that the mine was going to end at the end of the month. However, he absolutely did not dare to disobey Hu Shaomeng's wishes, so he had to steel himself and lead everyone to leave.

Because Jiang Wang had just arrived, he knew the accounts best, so Manager Hu was the first to let him into the accounting room.

Manager Hu handed over a box: "A'an, take a look and put your thumbprint if you have any questions."

Jiang Wang took it casually, looked at it, and laughed softly: "You gave me half a pill more."

The two hundred-yuan stones in the box were both full and had not been consumed. And the remuneration they had agreed upon at the beginning was one and a half stones a month.

"Isn't that true? Because we couldn't recruit anyone, didn't we agree on two pills a month?"

Manager Hu said and winked at Jiang Wang.

At least there was a hint of life in the gray and defeated face.

Jiang Wang couldn't help but said: "Why do you take care of me like this?"

"This young man!" Hu Guanshi said seductively, "Just take it if you tell me."

Jiang Wang had no choice but to put the box away. No matter what, it was the kindness of the little old man.

When he turned around and walked out, Manager Hu's low and disappointed voice came from behind him: "Among these extraordinary men, only you really treat us as human beings."

Half a Dao Yuan Stone is the greatest support within his capabilities.

Jiang Wang was silent for a moment.



He walked out of the accounting room, and Zhang Hai, who was waiting outside, was about to go in.

Suddenly, Shuanzi's shout rang out in the distance.

He stumbled and ran this way, panting and shouting: "It's dead, it's dead!"

Deaths in mining areas are usually related to vicious beasts.

Everyone became alert.

"Speak slowly." Hu Shaomeng suppressed his voice.

As soon as he heard Hu Shaomeng's voice, Shuanzi immediately shivered, calmed his breathing, and said as calmly as he could: "Xiao Cui, Xiao Cui jumped into the well!"

Who is Xiaocui? Jiang Wang looked around and found that everyone else was looking at Ge Heng.

But Ge Heng's expression suddenly changed.

Xiaocui is the maid in his courtyard.

Hu Shaomeng stood up: "Go and have a look."



The small courtyards of four extraordinary monks are all independent and scattered in the mining area.

It is completely different from Dawopu and Datongpu where the miners live.

Among them, Ge Heng's yard is close to Zhang Hai's, and Jiang Wang's yard is close to Qiang Wang's, so Jiang Wang always encounters the decadent uncle wandering around.

When everyone rushed to the scene, a group of miners had already gathered in Ge Heng's yard.

"Master Hu! Master Hu, you have to make the decision for this girl!"

"Xiao Cui has a hard life, Master Hu!"

The matter is actually very simple. The maid named Xiaocui finally couldn't bear Ge Heng's long-term torture. After Ge Heng left, she jumped into the well and committed suicide.

From the words of these people, the general outline of Xiao Cui was pieced together.

Including the injuries on her body, she always cried suddenly, and she was caught after running away several times...

The miners talked a lot, but no one dared to say Ge Heng's name to his face.

I didn't even dare to look at him.

The majesty of the extraordinary monks has long been deeply imprinted in their hearts.

Faced with the evil deeds of an extraordinary monk, they can only place their hope in another extraordinary monk.

Ge Heng's face was very gloomy. He glanced at the miners one by one and stopped their annoying chatter with his eyes.

But there were four extraordinary monks present, including Hu Shaomeng.

He didn't know how these people would express their opinions.

Beating and humiliating the maids in normal times are nothing, these things can be easily smoothed over. Even the government will not make things too difficult for the extraordinary monks.

But as long as someone dies, even if it's just a mortal, it's not a small matter.

Because any extraordinary monk comes from a mortal.

After the efforts of countless generations of wise people, it has become the consensus of any normal country or sect that human life is at stake.

but.

There is a but.

This consensus cannot be completely solidified into rules.

Just like powerful and extraordinary people, they dare to beat slaves to death at every turn.

Although this kind of thing is a crime, it often takes the appearance of a more powerful person to convict it.

This is the truth of the world today.





(It is now 2:17 in the morning. Originally, this chapter would not be updated regularly. The whole province of Hubei Province was closed, and my mentality collapsed. But when I turned to this moment, I suddenly thought, if, if I really have something

Accident. What can I leave behind?

I hope my work will stay.

I will spend time with my family and write novels at the same time.)
