Although Yang Jian's "No. 8 Mining Area" did not hold a very grand "ribbon-cutting" ceremony, when the mining of [Philosopher's Stone] broke ground, he also set off hundreds of thousands of "good start" firecrackers......

The day of construction is an auspicious day for the zodiac.

In addition to all the miners, security personnel, medical personnel, logistics management and financial staff on the mine, Li Nezha, Sakura Blossom Fall, Yan Ziteng, Zhang Zi'er, Feng Nuwa, Wu Ni Shang, Liu Ruyan, Flying Flowers in the Wind, Yang Shugen and Baili Yi also attended this very simple but joyful groundbreaking ceremony.

Originally, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother were both excited to come to participate in the celebration, but Yang Jian did not let them come, because he wanted to open the mine in a low-key manner, and did not want the people in the mine to know about his kinship with the Jade Emperor.

Everyone present at that time expressed their most heartfelt congratulations to Yang Jian with a smile on their faces-among them, the happiest was Yang Shugen:

When the earth-shattering sound of "two kicks", "flash thunder" and "earth red" firecrackers rang out like popping beans, he saw that the first shift of workers were wearing hard hats equipped with [magic headlamps], wearing dark blue overalls with the four white characters of "Mining in the Eighth District" printed on the left chest of their jackets, wearing cowhide mountaineering shoes, wearing canvas gloves, and operating the [magic rock drill] to start breaking ground at the designated location, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth and looked at it happily, and he couldn't stop laughing "hey, hey, hey......

After Yang Shugen's joy lasted for three days, the smile on his face began to gradually diminish - because the mining tunnel parallel to the ground had been dug more than twenty meters deep along the foot of the mountain, and fifty meters away from the entrance of the mine, the rough stones carried by a [magic train] from the roadway were almost piled up into a small mountain, and there was no shadow of a [magic stone] in sight.

In this regard, not only the poplar roots are anxious, but the cherry blossoms are anxious, and all the workers in the mine are also a little uncontrollable! Because since this month, [Yang's Magic Mountain Mineral Mining Industry Co., Ltd.] has paid them "three insurances and one housing fund" - their future fate has been closely linked to the "Eighth District Mining", so they are all working hard, eager to dig up piles of [Magic Stones] at once...... In that way, the "Mining in the Eight Districts" will be full of money, and their welfare benefits will also rise.

In addition, there is another person who is more anxious than them, and that is the [Treasure Pavilion] Pavilion Master, Baili Yi.

Bailiyi is already in his old age, he has no children and no daughters, because he watched Yang Jian grow up, so he likes Yang Jian very much, and in his heart, he has already regarded Yang Jian as his own child.

Until then, there had been people who wanted to buy his "No. 8 mine" – the price started at 200 billion and climbed all the way to 300 billion, 500 billion, 800 billion...... Last year, Mr. Zhao of "District 2" gave a price of one trillion, and he didn't sell it, because he made up his mind to leave the [Magic Stone] deposit to Yang Jian.

Originally, Bailiyi wanted to give the "8th District" to Yang Jian for nothing, but with his understanding of Yang Jian, he knew that Yang Jian would never accept his gift in vain. Therefore, he deliberately said that the price of the mine was very low in front of Yang Jian—and even moved out the "down payment" and "installment payment", the purpose was to find a way to let Yang Jian own the [Philosopher's Stone] deposit......

Now, Yang Jian really owns the mine, but it has been mined for several days, and the horizontal progress has been excavated for more than 20 meters, and it has already broken through the thickness of the shell of the "big gyroscope".

In this regard, Yang Jian is even more anxious.

Yang Jian, as the general manager of Yang's Magic Mountain Mineral Mining Industry Co., Ltd., shoulders a heavy burden. Now, not to mention what is the average daily salary of all the people working in the mines? The cost of three meals a day for more than 100 people and night meals for night shift workers is a big expense.

It's only been three days since the start of work, and 36 million food expenses have been reimbursed!

Not counting the "Magic Energy Oil" money consumed by the [Magic Train], [Magic Hook Machine], [Magic Forklift], [Magic Rock Drill], and the "Box Cargo" off-road vehicle used to go down the mountain to buy vegetables in the canteen......

Now, Yang Jian finally understands the meaning of the phrase "If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are", Yang Jian finally understands the meaning of the phrase.

At this time, it was the moment when the night was quieter, and on the campus of the [Cosmic Magic University], the students had already entered a very sweet dream, and Yang Jian was lying on the bed in the dormitory, but it was difficult to sleep.

He lay on his side, looking at the "mini" whistling dog lying next to his pillow, sleeping like a dead dog, and really envious of the quality of his sleep; He secretly envied himself, and closed his eyes and wanted to sleep, but he couldn't sleep anyway. Simply, he sat up quietly and looked at Li Nezha and the other two classmates.

I saw that the three of them were sleeping like roaring dogs, very sweet, and they all made a subtle and even breathing sound, adding a bit of rare vitality to the very quiet dormitory.

"Alas!" Yang Jian couldn't help but sigh softly, thinking, "These guys are sleeping so soundly!" Why can't I sleep? Anyway, I can't sleep now, so I might as well take advantage of this time and I'll go to the mine to have a look......"

After making up his mind, Yang Jian quietly got dressed, put on his shoes again, tiptoed to the door, gently opened the door halfway, and after going out and closing the door tightly with his backhand, he quickly left the dormitory building, walked outside and looked up, the silver man was all over the place, the sky was full of stars, and he couldn't help but feel refreshed.

He immediately reached out and took out the [Magic Spaceship] from the [Magic Bag], and after sending out a voice command to amplify it, he drove the spaceship out of the [Magic University] campus and went straight to the Magic Mountain......

Thirty minutes later, Yang Jian drove the [Magic Spaceship] to the sky above the "8th Area" of the Magic Mountain. He looked down and saw that at this time, although the night was dark, under the illumination of dozens of [magic searchlights], the mining area was brilliant and as bright as day.

The miners who work the night shift are all busy in full swing: the [Magic Hook Machine] is driving the [Magic Hook Machine] and unloading the rubble transported by the [Magic Train] in front of the rubble pile; The miners who are digging are working hard with the [Magic Rock Drill] on the face of the tunnel......

In the staff cafeteria, the lights are bright, and two neatly dressed young cooks are cooking for the miners on the night shift in the kitchen; Poplar Root couldn't sleep, so he also helped out in the kitchen.

Yang Jian landed the [Magic Spaceship] to the side, walked out of the cabin, and then put away the spaceship and put it into the [Magic Bag], and found that the lights were on in the staff canteen, knowing that the cooks were cooking night meals for the night shift workers. He wanted to see how the night shift workers were fed. He walked briskly towards the cafeteria.

After a while, Yang Jian walked into the cafeteria.

When the two cooks saw him, they immediately greeted him in unison:

"Mr. Yang, good evening!"

"Good! Good! Yang Jian replied repeatedly, and when he found that the poplar root was also here, he smiled and said, "Dad, it's so late, why don't you sleep?" ”

"Alas!" Yang Shugen sighed and said, "I can't sleep...... Erlang, you came just in time, hurry up and go home with your father! ”

"Oh?" Yang Jian couldn't help but be stunned, "Dad, what are you doing when you go home in the middle of the night?" Is it that the sound on this mine is too chaotic and affects your rest...... Do you want to go home and sleep? ”

"What do I sleep?" Yang Shugen smiled bitterly and said, "The mine has been drilled so deep that I haven't even seen a piece of [Philosopher's Stone], and I'm still sleeping?" Why is my heart so big? Speaking of this, he stretched out his hand and pulled Yang Jian's sleeve, "Erlang, go, go outside, Dad has something to tell you!" ”

When Yang Jian heard this, he felt very puzzled, so he followed Yang Shugen to the outside of the canteen, and was about to ask, only to hear Yang Shugen say in a low voice:

"Erlang, the cost of the mine is too big these days, you can't get in and out, and I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it! Don't be in a hurry, Dad still has 50 billion deposits in his hand, go, now you go home with Dad to get the money! ”

"Huh?" Yang Jian couldn't help but be shocked and said, "Five tens of billion? Dad, didn't you say you didn't have any money in your hand? Why did 50 billion ...... suddenly pop up?"

Yang Shugen's face turned red, and he hurriedly interrupted him:

"Erlang, don't ask so much! Hurry home ......"

"On the banyan tree by the pond, I know that I am crying out for summer......"

Before Yang Shugen finished speaking, suddenly, Yang Jian's [magic mobile phone] rang.

Yang Jian hurriedly took out his mobile phone and looked at the caller ID, it was Ying Manting calling him, he immediately connected the phone and said:

"Good evening, uncle! It's so late, why haven't you rested yet? ”

"Nope!" The mobile phone immediately rang with Ying Manting's extremely excited voice and said, "Yang Jian, I'm in the alley." Let me tell you a great news: a large number of [Philosopher's Stones] have appeared on the face of the palm! ”
