Chapter 25： Secret discussion

Qinglian Mountain, a majestic green pavilion, has three golden characters "Qinglian Pavilion" engraved on the plaque.

In the spacious hall, there are two large carved wooden chairs in the center and the main seat. Below the two carved wooden chairs, there are a row of blue wooden chairs on the left and right sides. Behind the wooden chairs, a blue lotus flower is carved.

The six royal family elders sat on the blue wooden chairs on both sides. They were all elders of the "Yao" generation. They had retreated behind the scenes. They were usually responsible for teaching younger generations or guarding the family ancestral hall. They rarely intervened in family affairs, but the family If there are major measures, Wang Mingyuan will discuss with them.

"Sixth brother, what happened again? Mingyuan called us together last time to let the young clansmen come out to do things two years in advance, and it won't be earlier! The sixteen-year-old clansmen have low cultivation base and do not understand many things , it would be even worse if people under the age of sixteen were allowed to go out to do things." An old man in a cyan robe said.

The old man was thin, with a goatee and a few deep wrinkles on his forehead.

The old man in green robe is called Wang Yaoheng. He ranks eighth among the "Yao" characters, and he is 62 years old this year.

Wang Yaoheng has four spiritual roots. He has practiced for many years, but he is only at the fifth level of qi refining. He teaches in the lecture hall and is responsible for imparting basic knowledge of immortality.

"Probably not! It's impossible for Mingyuan to think of this, and the family currently has no new source of income, so it doesn't need so many people. Some clansmen of the "elder" generation came out to do things in advance, which is enough to cope with the current situation. "An old man with a hunchback shook his head and replied.

The hunchbacked old man is called Wang Yaocong, who ranks sixth in the generation of "Yao" and is 63 years old this year.

Wang Yaocong is the root of the five spirits, only has the third level of qi refining, is proficient in the five elements, and is responsible for teaching the younger generation to practice.

"Mingyuan is also true. He called us together, but he didn't show up. I have to go back to see my grandson! I don't have much time to waste." A kind-hearted old man in white robe frowned and complained.

The white-robed old man is called Wang Yaochen, who ranks twelfth in the "Yao" generation, and is fifty-five years old this year.

Wang Yaochen is a four-spiritual root. He has been practicing for many years, but he is only at the fourth level of qi refining. He is proficient in planting.

"Twelfth brother, where is the younger brother and sister? Didn't she always take care of the grandson?" Wang Yaocong asked in doubt.

"This year's mulberry tree is growing well, and you can pick a lot of mulberry leaves. The female family was too busy, so she went to help. The heavy responsibility of taking care of my grandson was handed over to me. The two stinky boys, Changjing and Changlong, are everywhere. Running around, I just refuse to stay honest, so I run after their ass, my old bones are about to fall apart, I finally coaxed them to sleep." Wang Yaochen complained, but when he said His grandson's face was full of happiness.

His aptitude is not good, and he is getting old again. The greatest joy is to make fun of his grandson.

Wang Yaocong waved his hand and said: "Okay, Twelfth Brother, don't complain, there must be something very important, and Mingyuan will call us here. If you are worried that no one will take care of Changjing and Changlong, I'll ask your sixth sister-in-law to take a look, although your sixth sister-in-law's legs are not good, it's still fine to take care of two three-year-old children."

"No need, Brother Six, I just coaxed them to sleep. They shouldn't wake up within an hour." Wang Yaochen politely refused.

"Changjing and Chimelong are still young, and no one in the family is watching. They have spiritual roots and are the future of the family. They can't be sloppy. Brother Six, you should let Sister Six watch it! Everyone, don't worry." Wang Yaoheng suggested.

"What the eighth brother said is, I'm here..."

"No, I have asked my sister-in-law to take care of Changjing and Changlong." Wang Mingyuan's voice suddenly sounded.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Mingyuan followed a tall yellow-robed old man in.

The old man in yellow robe is the only foundation-building cultivator of the Wang family, Wang Yaozong, who rarely shows up on weekdays.

"Second brother, why are you here?" Seeing Wang Yaozong, Wang Yaocong and others stood up one after another.

"Mingyuan has something important to announce, let me come over as a witness."

Wang Yaozong walked to the main seat and sat down.

Wang Mingyuan walked to Wang Yaozong's side, he smiled at Wang Yaocong and the others, and said sternly, "Uncle Six, Uncle Eight, I have good news for you. A small vein of mysterious gold has been discovered in Ping'an County, which we control."

Hearing this, Wang Yaocong and the others were shocked and ecstatic.

"What? Profound gold veins? Really?"

"Mingyuan, how big is the mysterious gold vein? How many years can it be mined?"

"Mingyuan, hurry up and send someone to occupy that mysterious gold mine."

Wang Yaozong smiled slightly and said: "Okay, don't worry, let Mingyuan explain slowly, the fifth brother and the ninth brother have already brought people over to guard, Mingyuan, please give everyone a detailed introduction to the situation of the Xuanjin mine. Bar!"

"Yes, Second Uncle." Wang Mingyuan nodded, "A few days ago, a zombie appeared in Qingshi Town, Ping'an County. Changsheng was in charge of guarding Ping'an County. When he learned that there was a zombie infestation in Qingshi Town, he immediately brought someone over there..."

After listening to Wang Mingyuan's narration, Wang Yaocong nodded secretly and asked, "Mingyuan, how many mysterious gold ore can be mined every day in that mysterious gold vein? How many catties of mysterious gold can be extracted? How long can it be mined?"

"At present, three thousand catties of profound gold ore can be mined every day, one hundred catties of profound gold ore can be extracted into one tael of profound gold, and 30 catties of profound gold can be extracted in one day. The mysterious gold ore of the mine is stored in the warehouse, and after the mysterious gold is extracted, it is taken out and sold."

"Very good, the ancestors bless us, with this mysterious gold vein, our life will be better. Changsheng has made a great contribution this time. We must reward him well." Wang Yaocong's expression was a little excited.

"Mingyuan, you called us old guys, not just to tell us the news!" Wang Yaoheng said sternly.

Wang Mingyuan let out a sigh of relief, his face condensed, and said solemnly: "This mysterious gold ore vein will enable our Wang family to overcome the difficulties in front of us. All the uncles here know that our Wang family has always depended on selling Linggu and silk for a living, and their income is very high. There are more than 100 immortal cultivators in the whole clan, and the expenses of each person add up to a large amount. They have been relying on the wealth accumulated by the previous generation, which can barely support the operation of the clan. It is better to teach a man how to fish than to teach him how to fish. When the mysterious gold mines are hollowed out, I plan to select two people from the clan to train them, hoping to train our own craftsmen. What is the opinion of the uncles here? Let's talk about it."

"Cultivating a refiner? Alright! Our ancestor Wang Yuangang was a second-tier mid-level refiner, and he left behind more than a dozen refiner maps. If it wasn't for the lack of financial support, we would have trained a first-order refiner long ago. Now, with the support of the mysterious gold veins, we must train a craftsman to restore the glory of our ancestors." Wang Yaoheng agreed first, looking a little excited.

"That's right, sitting, sitting on the mountain, eating space, farming alone, it is difficult to maintain the operation of the family, there must be a new source of income, refining is the old line of our ancestors, we have a certain foundation, UU reading I agree."

"I agree too, but two people are too few, let's expand to five people!"

Wang Mingyuan frowned slightly, and said with some embarrassment: "Five people? The cost of training two people is a lot, let alone five people."

"What I mean is, select five people from the clan who have the talent for crafting to train for a period of time, and then conduct an assessment, and select two of the best performing clansmen for training. If only two clansmen are selected, they will be directly cultivated into refining. As a craftsman, one might not be able to dig out the best talents, and secondly, it’s hard to say something like talent. In the past, the clan directly selected two clansmen to train as craftsmen, didn’t they still fail?”

"Sixth brother is right, it takes a lot of spirit stones to train a craftsman, and you can't just throw a lot of spirit stones on them with some talent, speak with facts, pass the assessment, and leave the two best clansmen. Cultivate it, so that everyone will be convinced. After all, it is difficult to judge the talent of artifact refining. You can't read a few classics of artifact refining and memorize some basic theoretical knowledge, so you can judge that he has the talent of artifact refining! Second brother , what do you mean?"

After hearing this, the others looked at Wang Yaozong.

Wang Yaozong thought for a while, and said: "Sixth brother is right, this suggestion is good, so everyone can be convinced. If two clansmen are directly selected to be trained as craft refiners, if they cannot become craft refiners, other clansmen will inevitably gossip. , after all, it is difficult to judge such a thing as talent for refining, and it is not very fair. Only by speaking with facts can you convince the public."

Wang Mingyuan nodded and said, "Since the second uncle has spoken, then choose five clansmen to train for a period of time, and choose two from the five to train as refiners. Do your uncles recommend candidates?"

As soon as the voice fell, a somewhat rough voice suddenly sounded: "I recommend Wang Changsheng."
