Chapter 33: Fighting is the way to advance
In the afternoon, Xiao Li came with a cart of things and notified eight people to come out to get things, including work clothes, gloves, lights, helmets, and some tools.
"Shen Yi, you only need to receive work clothes and gloves, and you don't need to receive anything else." Xiao Li said to Shen Li.
"Brother Li, why?" Shen Li said.
"I'll take you to the Lingshi factory tomorrow morning to report that the sorting team in the factory is short of people." Xiao Li said.
Seven people except Shen Li were all assigned to the transportation team, responsible for transporting the raw stone of the spirit stone mine from the mine to the spirit stone factory.
Shen Li asked Ma Xiao how to transport the spirit stone? Ma Xiao told Shen Li that in fact, the trolley full of spirit stone ore was transported under the mine to the bottom of the large inclined shaft connecting the upper and lower mines, and then the people above the mine used a rope to pull up the mine cart under the mine, and then poured it onto the conveyor belt and transported it to the spirit stone factory.
Early the next morning, Xiao Li took Shen Li to report inside the factory, and the two guards at the factory gate saw that it was Xiao Li and did not check anything.
"Xiao Shen, when you get to the factory, remember not to take the spirit stones in the factory, you will be searched after work, if you are found to have hidden spirit stones, you will be imprisoned, among the eight new people who came yesterday, I only saw that you were young, and you felt more honest, so I asked you to do this job." Xiao Li said.
"Don't worry, Brother Li, I'm not the kind of person who petty thieves." Shen Li said.
"That's good." Xiao Li said.
"Shen Yi, this is the team leader of our sorting team." Xiao Li pointed to a middle-aged man who was sorting spirit stones and said to Shen Li.
Shen Li nodded.
"Team Leader Jin, this is the newcomer I brought to you, his name is Shen Yi, you can take him, I have to leave first." Xiao Li patted the shoulder of the deputy team leader and said.
"Okay, Xiao Li, you can get busy." Team Leader Jin stopped what he was doing and said.
"Xiao Shen, let me first introduce you to our sorting group, there are a total of ninety people in our sorting group, three groups are replaced, a group of about thirty people, five people clean the spirit stones, fifteen people sort the spirit stones, and ten people transport the sorted spirit stones to the division group. Since you've just arrived today, you'll do the simplest cleaning work first, just because there's one less person on their side. Team Leader Kim said.
"I obey Team Leader Jin's arrangement, it's the first time I've done this job, and I'm afraid of causing you trouble." Shen Li said.
"From now on, we will all be my own brothers, you don't have to be polite, come with me." Team Leader Kim said.
Shen Li followed Team Leader Jin to the workshop where the spirit stones were cleaned.
"Brother Shen, you see, the essence of this work is to wash away the impurities and stones on the spirit stone, this is a potion, mixed with water, you just see how they do it." Team Leader Kim said.
Shen Li nodded and said, "Okay, Team Leader Jin." ”
"You guys get to know each other, this is the new little Shen brother, I still have a job over there, so I'll go first." After Team Leader Jin finished speaking, he left the cleaning workshop.
The four people in the cleaning workshop all greeted Shen Li warmly, and all four of them looked like they were in their twenties and thirties.
"Little brother, you come here on the first day today, watch us do it first, and then do it with us when you learn it." The eldest young man in his thirties said to Shen Li.
"Then thank you brothers for taking care of me." Shen Li said.
They were all young people and spoke very speculatively, and Shen Li quickly integrated into the work team of four people.
After working for ten days in a row, Shen Li did not get some of the core secrets about this spirit stone mine from the conversations of his co-workers, because his co-workers did not have access to this information on the one hand, and on the other hand, they did not care about anything other than salary.
Looking at the bag of spirit stones that had just been issued on the table, Shen Li's mood was very complicated.
Shen Li thought to himself: "There is a mountain of spirit stones in my Na Ring, what is this little money I am earning now?" It's heavily guarded, and you can't run out, so is it true that you have to work for three months? ”
"Brother Shen, go get a drink, shall you? The wine in the mine is free, and if you don't drink it in vain, you don't drink it in vain. Ma Xiao had just gotten off work and pushed open the door and came in.
"Uh, Brother Ma, go drink, I'm now in a critical period of impacting the foundation building realm, and I'm afraid of drinking and making mistakes." Shen Li, who was meditating, said politely.
"It's okay, then my brother won't bother your cultivation, I'll call 'the first person in the Qi refining period' to drink." After Ma Xiao finished speaking, he gently closed the door.
Shen Li thought to himself: "Anyway, I can't get the core data of this spirit stone mine at all, forget it, I just don't want to do this at all, just go to work every day as a workout, and practice with peace of mind after work, so it's okay to stay like this for three months." The realm of martial arts cultivation doesn't seem to have moved at all, "Returning to the Yuan and Absorbing Stars" and "Yanyang Internal Strength" I don't know how many times I have cultivated in the past few days, and there is no sign of an increase in internal strength, and the last time I was promoted to a second-order martial artist, I was promoted in battle. ”
"That's right! Fight! It turns out that fighting is the way to advance! Shen Li said to himself happily.
Shen Li cultivated the first volume of the Taixuan True Scripture.
After another ten days, Shen Li relied on a large supply of spirit stones, and broke through to the foundation building period in one fell swoop, Shen Li's next days were to consolidate the realm and prevent the realm from being unstable due to too fast ascension.
When the month came, Shen Li really received an additional reward of 1,000 spirit stones.
A thousand spirit stones were just a small amount of money in Shen Li's eyes, and earning spirit stones by working on a spirit stone mine was much slower than robbing a treasure house of a large sect, just like ordinary people who worked part-time and never robbed a bank once in their lives to make a lot of money.
Seeing that the three-month period was about to come, Shen Li had already thrown Li Kang's task into the clouds. Shen Li was just concentrating on cultivation, and his cultivation had been cultivated from the Second Heaven to the Sixth Heaven during the foundation building period, if it weren't for Shen Li's desire to consolidate his cultivation, it was estimated that he would have been able to be promoted to the Ninth Heaven.
When the three months came, Xiao Li asked Shen Li if he wanted to renew the contract, and Shen Li insisted not to renew the contract.
"Xiao Shen, it's a disadvantage to work for less than six months, but there is an additional reward of two thousand spirit stones for six months." Xiao Li persuaded Shen Li.
"Brother Li, thank you for your kind reminder, my little brother has been taking care of you for these three months, so that he can do such an easy job, which is a little meaning." Shen Li took out a bag containing a thousand spirit stones.
"Brother, you're welcome, your work is easy, but your daily salary is also low, so you deserve it for your brother." Xiao Li pushed the money bag that Shen Li had offered in both hands.
The two of you went back and forth, and after a few tugging, Xiao Li still reluctantly accepted the thousand spirit stones.
After processing and refining, the volume of the low-grade spirit stone is only the size of a bean, and it is a translucent and slightly purple crystal.
Shen Li returned to the dormitory and packed his luggage, Ma Xiao had to send Shen Li to the gate.
"Brother Shen, your brother Ma and you are chatting quite speculatively, our brothers and sisters are destined to meet again, and I wish you an early apprenticeship for my brother!" Ma Xiao patted Shen Li's shoulder.
"Thank you, Brother Ma, I have written down your kindness." Shen Li said.
"Brother Shen, you are confused, how can I be kind to you?" Ma Xiao said.
"As long as I go back to the dormitory, you always leave under the pretext, I know that you are afraid of disturbing my cultivation." Shen Li said.
"Hey, that's as it should be." Ma Xiao said with a smile.
