Chapter 513



513 Monthly production of ten thousand gold, divine artifact materials

“Strange things?” Zhao Xu couldn’t help but raise his voice as he looked at Ted, who was in charge of the Kuangqu.

Because the composition of the entire silver Kuangqu was very complicated, many of the mines weren’t like mine 36 that Zhao Xu owned, which was completely monopolized by a single person.

Many of the mines could be controlled by several large families, and the players were only involved in a small number of them.

most of them were involved in the work of ore processing, refining, and selling, and their professional and technical skills related to ore had improved a lot.

The entire Kuangqu looked like it had less than 100 entrances, but if one were to trace the origins of each family, they could even take in the entire Alliance. This was the key to Starfall town’s overall situation, and the reason why Winterfell didn’t dare to act rashly.

In his previous life, this Mr. Ted had met Zhao Xu a few times.

But he was also a person who knew how to do things. By the time Zhao Xu was promoted to the town’s management level, the other party had already successfully climbed up to the higher-up city of Olu.

Now that the other party mentioned it to him, the mine owner, in front of everyone, he naturally had ulterior motives.

zhao xu couldn’t be bothered to use a beguiling spell in public to identify this person in charge of the Kuangqu, so before he could say anything, he just waved his hand and said, ” “Then let’s report it according to the procedure.”

Hearing this, Ted’s face stiffened slightly. He looked at the smile on Mr. Zhongxia’s companion’s face and was a little puzzled.

Weren’t players supposed to be warm-hearted people?

As long as the people of Arthur mentioned a problem, these players would rush forward with passion?

“Mr. Ted?”

Zhao Xu gently lifted his staff and pointed in the direction of the cave. If he wasn’t wearing a robe, he would have looked like a gentleman who followed ancient customs.

Ted, the person in charge, also came over. He quickly bent over and raised his hand to signal Zhao Xu and the others to go to mine 36.

The players who were squatting at the entrance of the mine with grass in their mouths were amazed. little six, can you hear what they are saying with your lip reading and listening skill? ”

The player called little six was covered in gray ore slag and was even carrying a pick in his hand. He said, ” Ted the big-tailed Wolf mentioned the strange things that happened in the Kuangqu recently, but the new big brother didn’t take it and asked him to report it to the higher-ups.

“Who is this person? This Ted usually acts all high and mighty, bowing and scraping to the higher-ups of winter city and ordering US players around. His head is almost touching the ground.”

at this time, another warrior, who was also covered in dust from the work, walked over and said, ” “Damn, didn’t you guys always want to see it? This Big Shot is the number one player in the entire server.”

d * mn, I vaguely heard that name just now, but I wasn’t sure. I didn’t expect it to be true. Little six also exclaimed, ” I heard that he was appointed to Starfall town. I didn’t expect it to really come true.

“Yeah, we players are getting more and more involved in this game.” the warrior from earlier sighed.

“then what is he doing here? Shouldn’t we go to the mage Association’s base? I still want to go there and make a living.”

“The Association of mages has mine number 48 here. Shouldn’t you take a look at your own assets before you go to the unit? Look at the people behind him, they’re probably the association’s members. It’s just that there’s quite a number of beautiful women.”

“But they’re going in the wrong direction.”

“Who knows?” the warrior beside him also felt that it was a little inexplicable.

“Ha, others are here to look at the mine, while we are here to mine. It was just like how they were the owners of a commercial building and they were the construction team. People will laugh at us if they know about this. We both play games, mine, and do hard labor every day.” little six complained.

“Some of the investors have invested millions into the game, but look at the water. If you’re not convinced, you can take your dagger and kill monsters in the wild. That way, you’ll earn money faster.”

you don’t say. How can fighting monsters be safer than mining? my weapons and armor don’t have to be damaged, and I don’t have to wait for a healer to heal my health. Recently, my professional (miner) skill has improved a lot. A player was unconvinced.

forget it. After I finish this week’s mining and save up enough money to buy a two-handed greatsword, I’ll go out and take an adventure. I’m almost wasted from mining here every day. The warrior complained, “if those civilians can’t defeat the monsters, mining is their last resort. We players are holding weapons, how can we be so cowardly?”

This group of resting players immediately began to debate whether mining was worth it, and their voices gradually increased.

Zhao Xu, who had walked away, naturally didn’t hear it.

In fact, after transmigrating, the number of people who still dared to go out and take risks had decreased by a lot.

to be able to mine and live well was the choice of most people.

The life of an adventurer was like this. Before they accumulated to a certain level, even fighting with a Goblin was an act of licking blood from the blade.

Therefore, after all the Lifestones disappeared after transmigrating, and they could no longer register a new account like in the game, many people lost the ” courage “.

On the other side, everyone followed the person in charge into the mine and slowly walked down the tracks beside the lead rails.

Under the dim light on the wall, everyone’s figures were a little vague. Zheng xinyun was also close to Wang Ningwei.

Meanwhile, Zhao Xu was thinking about his plans to develop the production of Starfall town.

He had also managed to turn a solo game into a farming game with great difficulty.

So when Ted, the person in charge, mentioned something strange, he didn’t respond at all.

He was here to produce and manage forces, not to work and do tasks.

Arthur didn’t have a fixed ” Mission “, so the ” mission reward ” was a question mark.

every week, there would be an uproar in the forum about players killing their employers because they could not get paid. However, even if these players had a reason to sympathize with them, they would still be hunted down by the city guards and would have to run for their lives or cancel their accounts.

So, before he could determine the risks and benefits of something, Zhao Xu wouldn’t rashly take on this ” problem. if he solved it while he was at it, he wouldn’t be able to get anything out of it.

Although number 36 and number 48 belonged to the Sorcerer’s Association, there were hundreds of other mines that were not related to him at all.

Zhao Xu had already realized from the ancient elemental temple beneath fallen star Lake that fallen star Lake wasn’t as simple as he thought it would be, so he naturally wouldn’t say anything about strange things.

Unless he really couldn’t solve the problem later on, then he, the boss behind the scenes, would need to take action and control the situation. This was the responsibility that came from his ” sovereignty.

“Why are there only dark mounds?”

Zheng xinyun could not help but ask in surprise when she saw that everything in front of her was not as shiny as she had imagined.

Or rather, the only one with a silver light was Vivian, who came down in full armor.

Zhao Xu couldn’t help but turn around and look at Zheng xinyun. what did you imagine a Mithril mine to be like? ”

“It means to dig out silver from a mine.”

Zheng xinyun’s answer was also very simple. Her head was slightly tilted, and she looked confused.

actually, mining is to mine these primary ores and then extract the silver. The reason why these are Mithril ores is that they have a much higher content of Mithril. Ted explained.

He then greeted the person in charge of mine 36, Lai si.

Compared to Ted’s fair and clean face, rice, who was hired by Zhao Xu, was more of a burly man. His face was full of stubbles and his stomach was full of fat.

“We pay our respects to you, Archbishop soz.” When Lai si saw the crowd, his first reaction was to greet soz.

Obviously, he was a devout believer of the goddess of magic.

It was for this reason that he was assigned to manage the mine.

Archbishop soz also started introducing the two of them to Zhao Xu.

When he first heard Zhao Xu’s identity as the mine owner, rice just nodded silently.

But when he heard that zhongxia was also a believer of the goddess and was even blessed by the goddess, the big man Lai si immediately became very friendly towards Zhao Xu.

Lai si walked in front and explained the details of the mine as well as the monthly excavation and the distribution of manpower.

only then did archbishop soz quietly come over to zhao xu and say in a low voice, ” Lai SI’s daughter fell seriously ill because of the cold wind and was blessed by the goddess. She was saved by a priest, so her family is devout believers of the goddess.

“Ever since I took over the parish, their family would take a day out of the month to come to the church to help out. He’s someone you can trust.”

Zhao Xu nodded to show that he understood. This was the person that soz had handed over to him, and he felt a little emotional.

For ordinary people, they did not have a preconceived notion since they had not received systematic education.

He wouldn’t think about what he wanted, what he would do, or what he believed in.

It was very likely that the gods had done them a favor, so they would offer their faith and serve the gods. As for the doctrine, he would naturally have to slowly understand and experience it later.

this was even more so in the northern lands, where the people were quite valiant.

At this moment, Zhao Xu couldn’t help but look at Zheng xinyun.

he had realized that instead of using wealth to win over people and using immortal achievements to subdue them, he could easily and quickly consolidate a force by using the path of ” faith. ”

“It’s amazing,”

At this time, lys let the loud voice say, ” after the players conquered fallen star Town and executed the mine owners who sold slaves to mine, they actually seized a portion of their shares. As for the mines that previously belonged to the nobles of winter city and the Alliance, they still remained the same.

so, this mine, which was obtained from the original Allied mine owners, had an average production. I don’t know why, but after the battle of fallen star Lake, its Mithril production suddenly rose sharply, and it topped the list of all the mines.

As he said this, he looked at Zhao Xu in surprise as if he was sighing for this zhongxia, who was also a believer of the goddess.

“How much is that?” Therus the White Dragon asked with concern, while Vivian sized up the White Dragon who was a little hot-headed, ready to attack at any time.

In response, Lai si looked at zhongxia.

“There’s nothing to hide,” Zhao Xu said.

At this time, there were still many miners in the mine carrying the crushed silver ore to the top, but when they passed by, they pricked up their ears to listen to the conversation.

It was as if they were looking forward to shocking gossip.

it used to be less than 2000 gold coins a month, but now it’s about 50000 gold coins a month. The production rate may continue to increase in the future. Lai si said in disbelief.

Everyone present, including the players pushing the cart, could not help but gasp. However, when he thought about how he could only earn slightly more than five silver coins a day from mining, he almost could not breathe.

Sure enough, the wealth that the capitalists, who controlled the resources of production, could earn was not the same as the wealth that they, who relied on their own hands, could earn.

Zheng xinyun was also a little surprised. you can earn so much money? ”

She had secretly used her pocket money to exchange for in-game gold coins to buy equipment, so she knew the current exchange price.

A monthly income of 50000 gold coins was more than the lifetime efforts of countless people.

When the White Dragon heard this, he drooled even more, as if he was already fantasizing how he would use these gold coins to set up his own nest.

“So exaggerated?” Wang Ningwei couldn’t help but be speechless.

“You’re quite a prodigal.” Suddenly, Antonya sent a telepathic message to Zhao Xu and started whispering to him with her back to everyone.

“What’s wrong?” Zhao Xu was surprised.

“This mine can produce so much Mithril, you must have used some means. Otherwise, with the merits of the fallen star Lake, soz wouldn’t have been able to help you get this mine even if he had to give up his old face.”

“Yes, I put a Mithril crystal at the bottom. Is there a problem?” he asked. Zhao Xu couldn’t help but feel a little confused. He seemed to have realized something.

“You exchanged a good material for making a divine artifact for gold coins. What do you think?”

When he heard this, Zhao Xu couldn’t help but feel his heart ache a little.

So that’s how it is. That Jade Star Master Frank is already a ninth-circle sorcerer, why is he still so ignorant?

However, he immediately calmed down.

“Eh? Although it’s been in there for some time, if you regret it, I can take it out for you.” Antonya suggested.

“Forget it,” he said.

Zhao Xu shook his head.

“No one can guarantee that they won’t die in a hundred years. Whether it’s an accident or tomorrow, it’s hard to say who’ll come first, so let’s just leave this mine.”

zhao xu’s gaze was deep. after he looked past zheng xinyun, he looked at the wall of the mine that had been dug up and filled with holes. ” even if my family can’t keep it, they can use that contract to exchange for something. it’s at least some real estate. ”
