Chapter Twenty-Five: Windfall from the Sky

Shen Li looked at the lilac stone in his hand, and his eyes couldn't help but straighten.

"Young Master, what's wrong with you?" asked Lin Wan'er cautiously. "Is this stone very strange?"

"Indeed, the name of this stone is Purple Smoke Stone, and I have seen it in the books, so I recognize it. This stone is not an ordinary stone, and it is raised by the temperature of heaven and earth, the color is light purple, and the stripes are mist-like, if it is brought to the market, a stone like this can be sold for at least a thousand taels of silver, and according to legend, it can also help the cultivation of martial artists, do you say it is precious?"

"Wow" Lin Wan'er's small mouth suddenly opened round, she didn't care if the martial arts cultivation helped her, what she cared about was the price Shen Li said, one thousand taels of silver, a stone no more than the size of a baby's fist is worth one thousand taels of silver, you must know that this is the cost of an ordinary family for a year!

"How's it going, you know, it's amazing!" Shen Li said with a smile.

"I didn't expect this thing to be so valuable, if only there were so many of these stones, then we would have a lot of money, and Daddy wouldn't have to worry about money anymore. Lin Wan'er couldn't help but hallucinate.

"You girl, what do you want to do? It's already a great chance that this thing can get a piece, is it possible that you still want to find a vein of purple smoke stone?" Shen Li couldn't help but laugh.

"Wait for the veins?" Before the laughter fell, Shen Li's expression changed, and he turned his head suddenly, not knowing what to think.

"Oh, young master, what are you doing? Lin Wan'er complained.

"Wait, I've never heard of a purple smoke stone appearing in the soil for no reason, is it" A bold idea suddenly rose in Shen Li's mind, although he instinctively felt that it was very unrealistic, Shen Li's heart still beat faster, and his breathing became short.

"Purple smoke stone appears here, is there really a vein of purple smoke stone underneath?"

Shen Li couldn't suppress the thought in his heart anymore, picked up a shovel casually, and dug it up on the ground, while Lin Wan'er was standing next to her strangely, not knowing what Shen Li was crazy about.

"Qiang"

Shen Li was digging, and when he was three feet deep, a sound of gold and iron clashing suddenly came out, and the shovel was also a blow, as if it had hit some hard object.

A touch of surprise suddenly welled up on Shen Li's expression, and then he threw the shovel out, and slammed his right foot, and with a bang, the ground nearby suddenly collapsed, and the dust and mist filled it.

Shen Li didn't bother to care if it was dirty or not, he jumped down directly, and then rummaged on the ground with his hands, and suddenly touched something uneven and hard.

"Found it!"

Shen Li's expression was overjoyed, he took a deep breath, put his right hand on this hard object, and once again flowed the internal energy in the meridians, guiding them towards the hard flow.

"Buzz"

A moment later, a dazzling purple light suddenly rose from in front of Shen Li's body, and the ground where Shen Li was was had turned purple.

"I've found a treasure, it's really a purple smoky stone vein! Oh my God, a purple smoky stone vein!"

After a long time, Shen Li came back to his senses, his eyes were already full of ecstasy, and his body trembled slightly with excitement.

Shen Li took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, jumped out, and yelled, "Everyone let me in!"

"What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Shen Li's voice really frightened Steward Sun, Yiying's guards, and domestic servants outside, and they trotted all the way to Shen Li's side, looking at him blankly.

"Dig for me, no matter what method you use, dig for me!" Shen Li pointed to the ground under his feet and gasped slightly.

"Huh?" People were stunned, looking at Shen Li blankly, not knowing what Shen Li meant, they had all been dismantled like this, what else to dig?

"Hurry up and dig it, don't talk nonsense!" Shen Li now only felt that a heart was about to jump out of his chest, and shouted angrily.

Shen Li's sound was like a thunderous explosion, which scared everyone into a thrill, although Steward Sun didn't know what Shen Li meant, but he must not have a target for no reason, so he said loudly: "Everyone pick up the shovel and dig it quickly!"

Steward Sun's words, coupled with Shen Li's majesty, naturally no one dared to hesitate anymore, and they stepped forward to dig one after another, some moving stones, some digging with shovels, and they were very busy.

"Young Master, what are you?" asked Steward Sun after all.

"We may have found a treasure. Shen Li said in a trembling voice.

"Found a treasure?" Steward Sun was stunned, looked at it for a while, and felt a smacking of his tongue, this place is rotten like this, what else can not be done? Besides, even if there are good things, he Jiang Tianluan will not leave the Shen family, I am afraid that he will have taken it away.

Shen Li didn't say much, he could only look at the ground with a pair of eyes, watching the gravel and soil on the ground being slowly dug out.

"Hey, what is this?"

About half an hour later, a sudden cry came.

"What's wrong?" asked Steward Sun with a frown.

"It's like there's something hard underground. One of the guards put down his shovel and said.

"Okay, dig in both directions. Shen Li said loudly.

"Hey, I have that too. ”

"I dug it too, what is this, how can the stone still be purple?" After a while, many people came across the purple stone and said one after another.

Shen Li looked at a large pit that was dug out of the ground that was six or seven meters in size, took a deep breath, and then jumped into it in one step.

A lilac ground, or a stone surface, suddenly came into Shen Li's eyes, uneven, but through the translucent stone surface, one of the smoke-like lines could be seen, which was very magnificent.

"Rich, really rich" A huge pie fell from the sky, and it fell on Shen Li's head like this, and the strong sense of happiness came so suddenly, Shen Li really came back to his senses.

Now, Shen Li was finally able to determine that under his feet, there was a purple smoky stone vein, a vein formed by rare purple smoky stone!

Shen Li had already calculated that such a vein, even if it was excavated with the most violent method, at least more than 100,000 catties of purple smoke stone could be obtained.

And the price of purple smoke stone in the market is more than two hundred taels of silver, or nearly one hundred taels of gold, and more than 100,000 catties of purple smoke stone, how much can his Shen family earn?

In terms of the current Shen family, the income of dying a year is only seven or eight thousand taels of silver, and how much is the purple smoke stone here worth?

After less than two calculations, Shen Li couldn't help but feel a little dizzy, the children of his small family, even if they were well-informed, how many assets could they have? It is estimated that a thousand taels is enough, but now, a vein of purple smoke stone is placed in front of his eyes, it is like a beggar suddenly getting a mountain of gold, who can imagine that kind of mood?

"This is a vein?" After looking at it for a long time, Steward Sun's body trembled suddenly, and he said in a trembling voice.

"Yes. Shen Li nodded.

"What kind of mineral? Is it another iron mine? Great, the price of pig iron is now close to two taels of silver per catty, and it is estimated that it can help the family tide over the current difficulties." Steward Sun became excited and asked.

"Iron ore?" Shen Li was stunned.

"Why, isn't it?"

"Have you ever heard of the Purple Smoke Stone?" Shen Li said suddenly.

Hearing this name, Steward Sun staggered, almost not being planted to death, Huo Ran raised his head, looked at Shen Li deadly, and his face suddenly trembled violently: "Purple Purple Smoke Stone?"

Steward Sun is also a well-informed person, so he has naturally heard of the name of purple smokestone, which is one of the rare minerals.

"I vouch for it with my head, this is Purple Smokestone. Shen Li said very seriously.

Happiness came so suddenly, Steward Sun's concentration was even worse than Shen Li's, and he almost fainted in one breath, grabbing a guard next to him before he stood still, breathing rapidly, and a pair of eyes actually released a light, a piece of gold.
