At the end of the first month, after a month of continuous mining, the output of Pit 1 finally stabilized at about 50 spirit stones per day, and its annual production capacity was also determined to be 18,000 pieces.

This figure refers to production capacity, which is actually very difficult to achieve, and in order to achieve this production, it is necessary to ensure that mining in Pit 1 does not stop halfway, which is actually very difficult to achieve.

But more than 16,000 yuan can be guaranteed, and this number has exceeded Gu Zuo's expectations.

In the first month of spirit stone mining, Huaixian Pavilion received 1,260 spirit stones, but this spirit stone Gu Zuo did not move, he discussed it with the original Dao Chief, and at the end of each year, after deducting the 25,000 spirit stones handed over, the dividends will be divided.

Gu Zuo was a little anxious now, he was waiting for the prisoner coolies sent by the Black Mountain County Law Department to Nanwu Prefecture, without this batch of coolies, it would be difficult to get off the second pit.

Fortunately, the hard work paid off, and on the first day of the second lunar month, Su San finally arrived in Nanwu Prefecture with Gu Zuo's long-awaited prisoners.

The escorts were 12 priests, most of them were members of the Star Ministry, and they escorted 32 prisoners.

The head of the legal division showed Gu Zuo the handover documents, and Gu Zuo took it and signed it, and then returned it to the team leader, and the two sides were considered to have completed the handover.

In addition to the documents, of course, there is also a stack of lists, one for each person who committed crimes, including a detailed account of the name, cultivation, and crimes committed, and there is a vivid portrait on the resume.

Among these thirty-two prisoners, there are five Zhuji, eighteen qi refiners, and nine martial artists, according to the agreement between Gu Zuo and Chen Haozi, who joined the army of the Fa Division, they are all prisoners who are not seriously charged, and most of them have families in Nanzhao.

Because the crime is not serious, they can usually be released after a few years of detention, and each has a family, so the cost of fleeing is too great, and it is the best choice to serve his sentence honestly, and it is easy to manage for Gu Zuo, who lacks manpower to supervise him. Because of this, most of them did not take the Sealing Elixir.

In addition, Gu Zuo is a little careful, he hopes that these people can try their best to consider staying after the expiration of the "flow match" period, and it is best to take their families over to enrich the population of Nanwu Prefecture, so he doesn't want those who are seriously criminal, murderous, tyrannical and cruel.

Chen Haozi was just to screen the prisoners according to his requirements, and it was only so many days late. The flow of Southern Wuzhou has become a hot spot in the recent past.

For such a group of people, the compensation that Gu Zuo needs to pay to the legal department at the end of this year is 1,200 yuan, which is a lot of money.

Among these prisoners, the highest was "three years in prison", and the lightest was "one year in prison". To Gu Zuo's surprise, Chen Haozi seemed to know very well about his intention to enrich the population of Nanwu Prefecture, and when selecting prisoners, he specially approved seven female prisoners, which made Gu Zuo full of gratitude to Chen Haozi, and entertained the leaders of the team who released the prisoners very warmly and thoughtfully, and when they left, they also gave each of them a small wooden box with exquisite workmanship, which was a local product of Nanwu Prefecture - three spirit stones.

In addition to this batch of prisoners, there are also six Qi Refining Period monks and nine martial artists recruited by Su San in Black Mountain County, as well as their families, if you count the cultivation base of Pingtai Mountain Villa, the total population of Southern Wu Prefecture has exceeded two hundred people in one fell swoop, of which the number of monks has reached sixty.

Su San reported to Gu Zuo: "Pavilion owner, this time the news was released in the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop, which was carried out in accordance with the steps you arranged, after the news of the successful production of spirit stones in the first pit was released, on the fifteenth day of the first month, the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop just opened, and the stock price of our Hengling International rose back to 1,000 Wen, I waited for five days, and released the news that the annual output of a single pit exceeded 10,000 Wen, and the stock price immediately returned to 1,500 Wen." It's a pity that there is no time, so we can only sell 10,000 shares at this price, before we leave, the stock price is 1,680 Wen, it's really a pity......"

Although the Lingshi vein does not belong to Hengling International, it also belongs to Huaixian Pavilion, Nanwuzhou and Hengling International are closely related industries, and this news will inevitably drive the stock price of Hengling International to rise.

Gu Zuo said: "Don't feel sorry for yourself, if you really want to rise back to two thousand Wen, it will be dangerous, maybe the first one to throw it is not you, it is the Lishui faction." The price of 1500 or 600 Wen is just right, stuck at two-thirds of the cost of the Lishui faction's stock, and they are reluctant to cut the meat, which is the most suitable. ”

Selling 10,000 shares, the proceeds were 15,000 yuan, and this money was used in a hurry by Huaixian Pavilion and others.

According to the arrangement in Gu Zuo's letter, this money is mainly used in three aspects:

The first is to pay the prisoner's fee for the first year, which is 1,200 yuan.

Then he bought a hundred stones of grain, sauce, vinegar, salt, and so on, as well as a large amount of cloth, totaling five hundred yuan.

After that, a large number of medicinal materials needed for refining the sperm pill were purchased, and the pill was suspended for more than a month, and if the work did not start, it would be difficult to complete the commitment to the shareholders, which was 600 yuan.

In the end, I went to the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop to photograph a large storage magic weapon-Jin Ling Lock, totaling 6,800 yuan! This magic weapon is a top-level magic weapon, belonging to one of the treasures of the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop Town Store, and the internal compression is a large storage space with a length and width of three zhang, which is equivalent to four hundred times that of Gu Zuo's storage wrench!

Almost all the materials that Su San bought were shipped back with this golden spirit lock.

Putting the golden spirit lock in his palm, Gu Zuo's divine sense probed in, and it was filled with a large amount of materials that Su San had bought. With this batch of supplies, at least for half a year, eating, drinking and Lazar in Nanwu Prefecture will not be a problem.

There were still 5,900 tickets left, Gu Zuo handed over 300 of them to Su San for Geng Jinshan's emergency use, and the remaining 5,600 guan stayed by his side. He now has to pay a large amount of money every month, and he is under great pressure to use money.

After sending Su San and the leaders of the law division away, Gu Zuo began to deploy manpower.

The five aboriginal monks still kept their duties, and were responsible for cultivating medicine gardens, spiritual fields, and mining fine iron. The newly recruited family members were assigned to them, and a hundred people were gathered.

Sister-in-law Liu and Li Gusheng's family members are responsible for cooking and washing for the people on this side of the Lingshi vein, and at the same time are responsible for cleaning the southern courtyard.

Sixteen skilled planters from Pingtai Mountain Villa went to the demarcated valley bottom to reclaim new fields and plant Yuanyang grass.

Continue to requisition the monks of Pingtai Mountain Villa for free, and the thirty-two monks led by the butcher, the Lingyuan Dao Master and the monk deacon, divided into two shifts, are responsible for controlling the Three-Element Extreme True Array, the Mining Array, and the Condensation Array.

The remaining monks and warriors went down to the pit in four shifts, two of which went down to pit No. 1, and the other two shifts were vacated, and the mining of pit No. 2 could finally begin.

Before digging the No. 2 pit, Gu Zuo took time out to meet with two special people in this batch of prisoners.

Liu Xuanji and Jia Gui.

Liu Xuanji is Gu Zuo's old acquaintance, one of the indirect promoters behind the Tanuki incident in Shanyin County, and the direct promoter of the escape case of Miss Shen of the Kuocang faction, and Gu Zuo is particularly related.

Jia Gui was one of the victims of the Crystal Palace incident in Lishui County, and was Gu Zuo's fellow inmate, and when Gu Zuo needed money the most, he lent 700 yuan. This list of borrowers, Gu Zuo has remained by his side so far.

After bringing these two in, Gu Zuo poured them tea, sighed, and said with a wry smile: "Let's talk about it, how did you two become prisoners? Why were you sent to Nanwu Prefecture?
