Chapter 33: Old Friend Andy

The sun rises as usual, and it's a new day. According to the agreed time, Wang Tiezhu, who had breakfast, put on the synchronizer and reconnected to Pande.

It was his decision to let the past go with the wind and welcome a new life.

"Pillar, you're here! I thought you weren't here today. Qian Youde, who had been waiting on the island for a long time, saw that Wang Tiezhu was online, and he stepped forward to greet him very happily.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, I drank too much last night, and I got up late in the morning." Wang Tiezhu scratched his head and said.

"It's okay, you're okay, the time for the task is still sufficient, we will dig all day today, and we should be able to complete the task." Let's go, let's go into the mountains. Qian Youde said and set off to walk towards the island

"Okay, go into the mountains!" Wang Tiezhu also followed.

Titan Island belongs to the Kingdom of Fieldville and is ruled by Count Bill, and because it is rich in mineral resources, it also has a strong and long defensive fortress on this remote island. The fortress was guarded by 500 Fieldville soldiers, who were responsible for guarding the island's mineral resources. Titan Island is also home to thousands of local islanders, who live a very prosperous life by mining and fishing. On the way to the mine, Qian Youde briefly told Wang Tiezhu about the information about Titan Island in the game.

"Stop! Pass! The two of them walked in the dense forest for about half an hour, and when they came to the fortress, the doorman guarding the gate of the fortress stepped forward to stop them.

Qian Youde took out the pass on his body and handed it to the doorman.

"Okay, let's go inside!" After the doorman finished checking, he handed the pass back to Qian Youde and released the two of them.

"Brother Qian, that's the village where the local islanders live, right?" After passing the fortress and walking some distance, Wang Tiezhu looked around and saw a large village under the high mountain not far away. The houses in this village are all wooden structures that stretch from the open area at the bottom of the hill to the halfway point of the mountain. The curling smoke of cooking smoke fills the entire village under the breeze, which has a unique flavor, and Wang Tiezhu, who has lived for 3,000 years, has never seen such a beautiful scenery.

"Yes, the islanders here live there, hey~, you don't know, most of the islanders here are very good miners, and they are also very cheap, if it weren't for the recent shortage of funds, I really want to take care of his dozens of laborers and do a big job." Qian Youde sighed without sighing.

"Hehe, it's going to be a long time coming, Brother Qian." Wang Tiezhu comforted.

"Yes, let's go first, let's go to Chief Andy, he will tell us where to dig Titan ore." Qian Youde led Wang Tiezhu towards the village.

"Hehe, Brother Andy, we're meeting again." Without much effort, the two of them entered the local office established by the Fields Kingdom one after the other. As soon as he entered the door, Qian Youde recognized his old friend Andy at a glance and greeted him warmly.

"Oh, it's a virtuous brother! My old friend, it's been a long time since we've seen each other! Hearing someone calling him, Andy, who was sitting at the table flipping through the accounts, hurriedly raised his head. Seeing that it was his old friend Qian Youde coming, he greeted him very warmly.

"Oh, who is this?" Seeing that Qian Youde brought a strange young man, Andy asked with a smile.

"Hehe, this is my brother, it's good if you call him a pillar." Money is virtuous.

"Hehe, hello, Brother Pillar, welcome to Titan Island." Andy politely shook Wang Tiezhu's hand.

"Hehe, hello, Big Brother Andy." Wang Tiezhu said very politely.

When greeting, Wang Tiezhu couldn't help but look at Andy a few more times. Andy looked like he was in his early forties, the top of his head was bare, but there was a faint ring of hair around him, and the more he looked at it, the more funny he felt, and he couldn't laugh out loud.

"Old friend, how many people are you going to hire this time? One hundred or two hundred? Hehe, it's no problem, although we are very tight on the island now, but I still have to take care of you when you come! Andy said to Qian Youde very heartily. From his words, Wang Tiezhu deduced that Qian Youde should have done a lot of business in the past.

"Hey~, I'm ashamed to say it, Brother Andy, I lost all my money gambling in Toba a few days ago, so I'm afraid I won't be able to hire someone from you this time. The mission I received this time is only a very simple two-person mission, don't believe it. Qian Youde told Andy about his current situation without any subtlety, and showed Andy the task list he got from the Roaring Bay Office.

"Oh, that's right, it's okay, don't worry! I'll get you a nice mine. Andy returned to the table, took out the map of the veins of Titan Island, looked at it seriously for a long time, frowned and said: "Old friend, at present, it seems that there is a chance to dig some Titan mines by relying on these caves on the left side of the mine, do you want to pay attention to it?" ”

Wang Tiezhu didn't understand why Andy wanted to pay attention to it, so he saw that Qian Youde also seemed to be puzzled, "Brother Andy, if I'm not mistaken, aren't the caves in the middle of the mine rich in more Titan ore?" What, is there anyone there who is mining now? ”

Andy said: "Hey, it's really unfortunate, yesterday a businesswoman from the Bacchus Empire has contracted most of the mines in the mine, and now there are few public mines left. ”

"Oh! This woman is so generous! Qian Youde thought to himself that this woman who had contracted most of the Titan mines must be the owner of the twenty merchant ships he saw on the sea yesterday, and he couldn't help but admire. I thought that compared to this businesswoman, the so-called big business he had done before was simply not worth mentioning.

"Well, it looks like we'll only have to go to the mines on the right, although that looks really bad." Qian Youde said helplessly.

"Hey, there's no way, only the contractor has the right to mine in the area where the mine is contracted, this is a rule set by Earl Bill, the owner of the Titan Island, and no one dares to violate it. Unfortunately, I can only help you so much this time, my old friend. Andy said regretfully.

"Huh. It's okay, Brother Andy, I still want to thank you for your observation, okay, I'm leaving, I'll come to see you when I'm free. Qian Youde patted Andy on the shoulder.

"Hehe, no thanks, this is what I should do, old friend, looking forward to meeting you again." With that, Andy greeted the two and left the office.

Out of the office, Wang Tiezhu followed Qian Youde all the way to the mine on the left, and on the way, Qian Youde always lowered his head and did not speak, looking very depressed.

"Brother Qian, this Andy must be very familiar with you, he is really good." Wang Tiezhu saw that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and took the initiative to chat with him.

"Hmph, I'd rather deal with characters from these games than with snobbish players. As long as you maintain a certain level of relationship with them, they will not easily change their attitude towards you, let alone betray their friends. Qian Youde said coldly, and remembered the snobs and faces of Changxiao Bay again.

"Huh? Andy isn't a gamer? Wang Tiezhu was shocked, this game is so real, he can't quickly distinguish between players and NPCs now.

"You're so funny, who would have nothing to do to play games by turning yourself into a top-notch man." Qian Youde continued to move forward.

"Oh, yes, I'm funny." Wang Tiezhu whispered to himself, he was a tease who deliberately scandalized himself and played games.
