Wei Chen seemed to have turned a blind eye to this phenomenon, and only when the beaten miner picked up the hoe again to do things did he clap his hands, and everyone immediately put down the tools in their hands and gathered around.

Wei Chen pointed at Xu Chen and said, "This is your new foreman, when I am not there in the future, you have to follow his orders." ”

"Meet the foreman!", "Foreman is ......" The scene sounded a sparse response.

Looking at the group of miners in front of him with a wooden expression, Xu Chen stroked his head helplessly, and said with a pleasant face: "Hello everyone, my name is ......"

As soon as he heard that Xu Chen wanted to introduce himself, Wei Chen hurriedly interrupted him and said, "I forgot to tell you the rules here." ”

"What rules?"

"You can't ask each other for names and details here. After speaking, he took out a bronze medal engraved with the number "three" from his arms and handed it to Xu Chen, and said to the miners: "In the future, your foreman will be the number three, everyone should remember." ”

There was another numb response at the scene, as if the poor miners had been tortured by the demon guards into wooden men with no mood swings.

When Xu Chen took the bronze medal, he had already paid attention to this group of topless miners, and sure enough, he found that they all had a bronze medal with a number tied around their waists, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, he didn't expect the secrecy work here to be so meticulous.

"Alright, now that everyone knows, let's go back to work. After Wei Chen sent the miners away, he said to Xu Chen: "Although you are on my uncle's orders, it does not mean that you are free to act. ”

Xu Chen asked, "You mean that I can only stay here and can't go out and walk around?"

"Yes, you must not walk out of the two stone doors that started to enter until you have dug up your hands, or you will be guilty of a capital offense. ”

Seeing Xu Chen's angry glare, Wei Chen's tone slowed down and said, "Of course, if you really want to go out for a walk, you can notify me in advance." Under normal circumstances, I would not object. ”

Xu Chen thought to himself: "Forget it, I'll bear with it for now, and then pay attention to it after understanding the situation here." So he shrugged his shoulders noncommittally.

Wei Chen said again: "You are in charge of this mine, and you don't have to take care of the other caves." There are more than 70 miners working here in two shifts, and you just have to worry about them getting the digging done on time every day. ”

"Food, clothing, shelter and transportation on weekdays, and other ......"

Before he finished speaking, Wei Chen smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about this, my soldiers will do it for you, you just need to notify my subordinates when they are in danger." ”

Xu Chen heard the sound of his words, only mentioning "just notify his subordinates", but did not mention what happened after the death and injury, it seems that these demon dogs really value the lives of the miners very lowly.

"Don't say I didn't take care of you. Wei Chen called over a small demon leader with a horse's face and said to him: "In the future, the diet and daily life of No. 3 will be handed over to you, you have to be careful, otherwise you are the only one who asks!"

In the end, he threw a sentence to Xu Chen: "If you want to find me in the future, just let him be in charge of contacting." After speaking, he walked away with his hands behind his back.

As soon as Wei Chen left, the little leader picked up a hoe from the ground and handed it to Xu Chen.

Xu Chen asked, "What do you mean by this?"

"Of course it's to mine, don't you want to sit and rest?"

Xu Chen sneered and said, "Didn't Wei Chen ask you to take care of me just now, why did you order me as soon as you turned your face?"

"Hehe, my lord just asked me to be in charge of your daily life,

I didn't take care of the little ones and didn't let you work. ”

Xu Chen was so angry that he really wanted to beat him up, but he thought that he was unfamiliar with life when he first came here, and he urgently needed to understand the situation in the mine, so he also took off his shirt like those miners, and carried a hoe and worked shirtless.

He tried to chat with the miners next to him while digging, but found that everyone was not interested in chatting with him at all.

At first, Xu Chen thought that there were demon soldiers watching on the side, but slowly the surrounding miners discussed in private, and he gradually understood what was going on.

"What's the spirit, this kid must have taken refuge in the demons, so he became a foreman. ”

"Who said no, the traitor didn't end well anyway, after the demon clan used him, it was still a click!"

"Don't gloat, the devil dog is ruthless, we will die in a ghost place sooner or later. ”

"Hmph, if it weren't for this group of dog thieves coaxing Lao Tzu to eat longevity cakes, it would be their turn to be arrogant!"

Suddenly hearing the word longevity cake, Xu Chen couldn't help but be stunned, and quickly turned his head to look, who knew that the two miners who were secretly chatting saw Xu Chen looking at him, and immediately closed his mouth vigilantly, Xu Chen's ears were pricked up for a long time and he couldn't hear them again, so he had to continue to work with a stomach full of questions.

Due to the existence of a lava lake in this cave, the miners couldn't stand the heat after two hours of work, so they called it a day and went out to rest, but the demon soldiers in charge of guarding it were not idle, and then called another group of miners to come in and continue mining.

At this moment, Xu Chen took a look at all the miners under him, but the miners in this class were still the same as the previous batch, and they didn't have a good face for Xu Chen, and Xu Chen couldn't help but regret the thankless errand of rashly agreeing to Wei Chen as a foreman.

Because he felt wronged in his heart, Xu Chen's resentment had nowhere to vent, and he actually dug two hoes in a row.

However, the guards didn't blame him, after all, the previous group had withdrawn to rest, Xu Chen was still sticking to his post, and the little leader of the demon clan with a horse face said with a smile when he handed him a new hoe: "No wonder Lord Wei appreciates you, working is actually a top trick! If everyone was as capable as you, I would have been out of the sea of misery a long time ago, and I wouldn't have to stay in this ghost place." ”

What he said was a compliment, but Xu Chen couldn't help blushing when he saw the strange color in the eyes of the miners around him, knowing that they thought that he was working so hard to please the demons.

So he sat down to rest in a huff, and then said to the little leader, "I want water, and bring me some jugs of wine." ”

Wei Chen had ordered this guy, and now that he heard Xu Chen's words, this horse-faced little leader didn't dare to disobey, and turned around and went out to get something.

But Xu Chen immediately stopped him, and then pointed to the miners and said, "Take a few jars of wine and a few loads of water, so that everyone can quench their thirst." ”

The little leader's face changed suddenly, and he said angrily: "Master Wei only asked me to take care of you, but he didn't say that he would take care of this bunch of garbage!"

"What are you talking about?" Xu Chen's face changed when he heard him scolding these miners for being garbage, he stood up suddenly, and roared sharply: "Keep your mouth clean, if you don't go, call Wei Chen for me, and the master will tell him personally!"

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and an older demon soldier hurriedly came over to persuade him, and whispered to the little leader: "Anyway, this kid's expenses don't need us to pay, so you promise him to get it, so as not to cause trouble when you get it, and it will be difficult for Lord Wei to deal with him." ”

The little leader thought to himself, in case these miners took the opportunity to make trouble, it would delay the progress of mining, and then Wei Feng would not be able to afford to be guilty when he got angry.

So the demon dog called a few soldiers with a blue face

The soldier went out with him to find a drink.

Xu Chen sneered, and then asked the miners to put down their work in the name of the foreman, and wait for the little leader to bring wine to drink before starting work.

The group of miners looked at each other, and when they saw that Xu Chen didn't look like a coy attitude, they breathed a sigh of relief and all sat down to rest.

But everyone was still wary of Xu Chen, no one took the initiative to chat with him, Xu Chen only felt a little embarrassed, so he took the initiative to greet a man sitting next to him who was in rags and looked to be about forty years old.

The man saw that Xu Chen was chatting with him directly, and he was not offended on the surface, so he had to pretend to reply politely: "Foreman, what are your orders?"

Seeing that someone was taking care of him, Xu Chen also breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "You don't have to be nervous, I just want to chat with everyone." I just came to this ghost island in the next place, and I am not familiar with the place, and I have to rely on everyone in the future, so what are the rules, I hope you can inform me in advance. ”

Hearing Xu Chen say this, the middle-aged man with the No. 37 iron plate on his waist immediately misunderstood what he meant, and said with a smile: "Hehe, everyone understands the rules." Rest assured, foreman, as soon as this month's money is paid, I will ask everyone to come together to honor you. ”

Xu Chen was stunned for a while, he never expected this middle-aged man to regard himself as an extortionist, he quickly shook his hand and said: "Brother, you misunderstood, what kind of person is here, how can you extort everyone's hard-earned money!"

The thirty-year-old man thought that Xu Chen was pretending to be serious, so he said: "In the past, the brothers used to take out a hundred percent of the filial piety money, but the foreman was too little?"

Xu Chen's face was red, but he also heard that the miners were famous in private, so he took the opportunity to ask the reason.

Seeing that Xu Chen was puzzled, the middle-aged man patiently explained: "The foreman doesn't know, this Lingguang Island is not a military location, but a demon mine, where there is a good black iron ore, although the black iron is a good material for casting weapons, but the hardness of the ore is extremely high, so the brothers' daily consumption is also large, and they are often short of money to spend." ”

Xu Chen was confused when he heard this, and asked puzzledly: "I know that the weapons cast by Xuantie are much stronger than ordinary weapons in terms of sharpness and durability, but what does this have to do with you, and you even say that the expenses are big and there is a shortage of money?"

The man smiled wryly and said, "Because of the high hardness of the ore, our mining tools are often easily damaged, and if you want to buy new tools, you have to buy them from the demon dogs who guard us." You say how much money we can have every month, but it's difficult to buy some alcohol and drink in our leisure time. That's why the foreman just asked the demon dog to give us wine, and the brothers are grateful to you from the bottom of their hearts. ”

"It's just unreasonable!" Xu Chen was angry with his steel teeth, he never expected that the miners would be hard enough to work in this high-temperature environment, and they would still be oppressed by the demon dogs!

But now he was anxious to understand the situation here, so he had to ask patiently: "Just to dig the dark iron ore, do we have to work in this harsh environment?"

The man glanced at the demon soldiers guarding him vigilantly, and then lowered his voice and said, "When you came in, you must have seen that the mine was full of caves, and if you want to say that other caves are digging for iron ore, I will believe it." But I don't believe that this hole can be dug in it! At least I've been digging here for more than half a year, and I've been digging every day, and then transporting the dug stones outside and dumping them.

Xu Chen knew that the demon dog that the middle-aged man was talking about was Wei Feng, and at this time, Xu Chen suddenly remembered that this demon saint had said that a treasure that could be dug in this hole that made him the city lord of Heavenly Poison City, and he couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.
