571, ore vein
Baoshu is a Yuan Infant Demon Cultivator, and his status in the clan is extraordinary, not to mention such a small business, even if there is any major matter, if he has no time to inform the patriarch, he can also be in charge.
Lingyu didn't insist, and said with a smile: "Baoshu Daoist can directly make the decision, of course it's best." She pointed to the jade piles in the house, "When I came down to your tribe, I found many of these stones, and I think there are veins under the water?" If so, will the Tortoise Tribe exploit the veins and sell these stones to me? ”
Baoshu's little eyes blinked, not understanding what she meant.
For demon cultivators, mining veins is unheard of - oh no, I heard that humans can mine veins, but demon cultivators don't need to, because most of the human veins are mined for refining weapons, and the body of demon cultivators is a magic weapon, and there is no need for refining weapons. There are also some special materials, such as those used for arrays and the like, which are not in high demand and do not need to be mined in large quantities.
"Mining ...... Vein? Bao Shu asked.
"Yes, mine these stones and sell them to us."
After getting the exact answer, Baoshu scratched his head: "This thing is useless, what are you doing with it?" ”
Lingyu smiled: "Didn't Fang just say it? Birds love this little thing. There are so many bird tribes in Fusang's wood, and they can exchange for a lot of good things. Moreover, these stones all carry spiritual energy, and when they are placed in the nest, they will help in cultivation. ”
Baoshu believed her. The tortoise placed these jade stones in the station, not only for lighting, but also to add aura. Those flat-haired beasts liked these things, and Baoshu knew that he had traded them for these jades, but he really didn't know that he could sell them in large quantities......
Lingyu's expression when she saw the treasure book. I knew I was right. There must be veins underneath this water. And judging by the quality of these jades. The veins are not small.
"Sold to you, then what do you pay?" Bao Shu was moved and asked.
Lingyu said: "Naturally, what you need, such as Fusang tea, some elixirs and the like......"
Baoshu's eyes lit up. The whirling turtle lives under the water, unable to cultivate elixir, and they don't know how to take care of it, so they can only exchange with other demons. But there is a limit to what can be produced underwater. There isn't much that can be changed.
The idea must be clear, Bao Shu squinted his small eyes and smiled: "Sounds good." However, mining is not an easy task, and if there are not many things exchanged, there is no need for our people to waste time......"
That's the bargain?
Lingyu looked like a deep thought, and then said: "Baoshu Daoist, both parties must be satisfied in doing business, I don't know how your veins are, and I can't set a price for a while." You take me to the vein. Let's talk about how to make a deal again, shall we? ”
This is a normal requirement. Baoshu said briskly: "Okay, when will I read it?" ”
Lingyu pressed the joy in her heart: "You can do it now." ”
There is such a thing as an ore vein, and in Ximing, you will never take someone to see it casually, but in the eyes of the demon cultivator, the ore vein is not a good thing, so you can see it.
Coming out of the cave, Lingyu greeted Tao Zhu, made a look, and left with the treasure book.
Before coming, Shenshang told Tao Zhu that there was a risk, in case something happened, Lingyu couldn't take care of him, and he had to survive by himself. The last time he went to the False Beast's station, Tao Zhu was like this, he guessed that the False Beast had broken him away, there must be some trap, in order not to drag down Lingyu, he simply left. But he wasn't stupid enough to listen to the beast's words, but stood there obediently waiting for the spirit jade.
In this situation, Tao Zhu has already coped with it easily, agreed, and continued to do business without caring on the surface.
Lingyu followed the treasure book through a long dark waterway.
Around this waterway, there is no coral jade arranged when they came, it is empty and dark, and there are occasional water beasts, which are also low-level demons.
After swimming for half an hour, the waterway gradually brightened, and there were occasional tumbling jade stones around. The deeper you go, the denser the jade becomes.
Lingyu took a jade stone casually, and was secretly surprised. This kind of ore scattered outside is generally on the periphery, and the quality is not very good, but the quality of this jade is already medium, so it seems that the quality of this vein should be superior.
Moreover, there are many varieties of jade, and it seems to be a composite mine. Generally speaking, composite ores are difficult to refine, but the classification of this ore is clear......
A moment later, they swam into an underground waterway, and the ore was densely packed together, reflecting the light around them.
When they reached their destination and stood in front of the main vein, Lingyu was so surprised that she forgot to breathe.
It's out, she's really going to send it! With such a good quality vein, there are not many veins in Ximing, and depending on its trend, the output is a lot, and it can be mined for at least a few hundred years.
Baoshu watched Lingyu digging here and there in the vein, and couldn't understand what she was doing, so he asked, "Friend Shuidao, what's the matter?" ”
The more Lingyu explored, the more pleasantly surprised. The outer layer is a medium-grade mine, a little deeper is a high-grade mine, and what is even more surprising is that there is a small piece of the best mine in the depths! These are the best mines, but they are treasures that are difficult for Yuanying monks to get.
Hearing Baoshu's question, Lingyu pretended to think calmly for a while, and asked him, "Baoshu Daoist, I have two methods here, can you listen to them?" ”
"Say it." The treasure book is very casual.
Lingyu said: "The first method is to sell us as much as you mine, according to the quantity. That way, you may not be making much money at first. ”
Baoshu was puzzled: "Is there a second way?" "Isn't it the case that both sides barter?
Lingyu smiled: "The second method is that I will make a one-time payment of materials and package this mine." ”
"Packed?" Bao Shu didn't understand, "You mean to say that this mine belongs to you?" So how many things do you derive? ”
Even if he didn't take these jade stones seriously, he knew that the more they were, the higher the value.
"Not so." Lingyu explained to him, "I have contracted this mine, and for a certain period of time, the mining rights will belong to me. When the time comes, the veins are still yours. ”
"Oh......" Baoshu understood. This method of selling is new, and I heard that there seems to be a human side doing this. Thinking so, the gaze of the treasure book falling on Lingyu was suspicious.
Lingyu asked, "Which one do you think is suitable?" ”
Baoshu came back to his senses and said, "You haven't said how to change it!" ”
Lingyu thought for a while, told him the price she was willing to pay, and finally said: "The former, I will take out more things, but you have to be more troublesome." The latter, in general, is cheaper, but you will save trouble, and you will be able to get a large number of supplies at once. ”
Bao Shu is calculating in his heart. Of course, the former is more cost-effective, but if the mine is opened, the tribe will have to divide a lot of people to mine here. And the latter, taking something, is none of their business. The most important thing is that the price of Lingyu is not low, and the price of this mine is enough for their Spiral Turtle Tribe to spend many years.
After thinking about it, Baoshu asked, "Can Daoist friends be the masters?" ”
Lingyu smiled: "Even if the Chongming Bird doesn't come out, I can still unite a few friends to wrap up the ore vein." Besides, you have to be paid before your tribe gives me this mine, right? ”
Thinking about it like this, Baoshu no longer hesitated: "Then use the second method, but the price is ......."
The two sides haggled over and it was quickly settled.
Lingyu wanted to establish a soul contract, and Baoshu agreed.
When the soul contract was established, Lingyu breathed a sigh of relief, full of joy, and everyone was about to fly.
She set a time of 100 years, and within 100 years, the right to mine this vein belonged to her. That's not enough time to mine the vein, but it's enough to dig out the best hidden ore within. This is where the most valuable vein lies.
And the materials she needs to pay are really not a small amount. In addition to those two bags of feathers, the wealth earned in Dongming in the past few years has to be taken out, and part of the inheritance of Guangling Zhenren must be added.
Lingyu was very distressed, if these materials were exchanged for Ximing, they could be sold for a very high price. But now she has to exchange it for this vein.
However, even so, she still has to do this business.
A vein, this is a fine vein! A hundred years of mining rights is enough for her to earn back a hundred times the materials she paid today! And that's not counting the best mines. In Ximing, you can't get such a good thing.
"Treasure Book Daoist, if I open a mine, can I ask your Spiral Turtle Clan to help? Of course, I will pay the wages. ”
Baoshu waved his hand absently: "If they are willing to come, then come." ”
Lingyu was overjoyed. Baoshu has miscalculated the account now, she has contracted the mining rights of this mine, and let the tortoise mine on the spot, into her own pocket, and only need to pay the wages, which is not much different from the first method, but the income is more......
"Treasure Book!" The water was surging, and the voice of the old man came, and then, the aura fluctuations came, and two Yuan Infant Demon Corrections rushed to this side, one Yuan Hou and one Yuan Zhong.
Lingyu frowned slightly, this voice didn't seem to be very friendly. The Spiral Turtle Tribe has a queen Yuan, could it be their patriarch?
Not long after, two demon cultivators entered the mine, one of them was Miao Xian, and the other was an old man who was even older than the second elder of the snake clan.
"Patriarch! Miaoxian seniors. Sure enough, the treasure book called.
The Spinning Turtle Patriarch had a stern expression, stared at him a few times, and turned his gaze to Lingyu.
"This fellow Daoist, why did you deceive Baoshu?"
Lingyu didn't speak, Baoshu shouted, his face was full of surprise: "Patriarch, I was deceived? ”
The Spinning Turtle Patriarch just snorted and didn't answer, still staring at Lingyu.
The coercion of the Empress Yuan pressed down on Lingyu. Lingyu's face turned pale, but she didn't bow her head, she said, "Your Excellency is the Spiral Turtle Patriarch?" I don't know where I deceived the treasure book Taoist? ”
The Spinning Turtle Patriarch snorted coldly: "A hundred years of mining rights, so generous!" As he said this, he looked at the treasure book, "Do you know how much the mining rights are worth for a hundred years?" ”
Baoshu was even more surprised: "Patriarch ......" He made a transaction soul contract with Lingyu, of course, he had already calculated, the loss was a loss, but it saved a lot of trouble.
"These stones are worthless......" he muttered, not understanding why the patriarch was so angry.
"Idiot! How can it not be worth it? The Turtle Patriarch shouted. (To be continued......)
