The mine was still a quiet scene, Xu Tian quietly returned to the mine, and Yu Nan and Han Yue were still asleep. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Xu Tian casually found a stone and sat down, running all the way made the muscles in his legs a little sore, still thinking about the swamp monster in his heart, he really felt incredible, this small Beicheng actually had such a terrifying existence, if he went to a bigger place, wouldn't he only have to flee for his life.

The next day

The sound of miners mining came from the mine again, the mine heads were patrolling back and forth, Xu Tian and Yu Nan were also digging, but Xu Tian had been absent-minded.

When it was time to receive food at noon, Yu Nan sweated and looked like a hard worker, Xu Tian observed that every time it was time to receive food, Yu Nan would always show a satisfied smile.

"Did you hear that, last night, there seemed to be some noise~"

"yes, yes, you heard it too, I thought I was mistaken~"

"I thought it was thunder, it's so loud!"

"I slept so much that I didn't hear any sound~"

......

The miners sat in groups, casually talking about the noise outside last night.

When Yu Nan heard their words, he asked Xu Tianlai, "Did you make any noise last night?"

"Last night... I don't know~ I slept heavily. Xu Tian replied that he didn't want people to know about the stone phosphorus powder.

But now that the stone phosphorus powder has been used up, and the mine where Xu Tian is located is gone, he has to find a way to get some more from other mines.

"Yu Nan, do you know when the mine will be paid?" asked Xu Tian.

"It's usually sent at the end of every month, what's wrong?" Yu Nan wondered why Xu Tian asked about this, he had always felt that Xu Tian was actually a rich man since he saw Xu Tian's dozen or so glowing 'gems'!

"At the end of the month, isn't that three days later, and today is the third day of our mining, according to the current eight copper coins per day, that's forty-eight copper coins, right?" Xu Tian calculated.

"Yes, you still care about this, your 'gem' should be worth a lot of money, right?!" Yu Nan nodded and said sourly.

"Hehe, it's not a gem, it's worthless, I don't have a copper coin on my body now!" Of course Xu Tian knew that the demon pill was extraordinary, but there was no place to use it now, the master said that the frost wolf demon was a rare demon beast, so this demon pill must be kept well, and the copper coins or something can be earned by finding a way to earn it.

Yu Nan glanced at Xu Tian in disbelief, snorted lightly and returned to the mine.

Xu Tian shook his head helplessly, thinking that if he took something in the storage ring in the future, he would definitely not be seen by people anymore!

After Yu Nan went back, Xu Tian turned around and went to Steward Li.

Steward Li was in the small wooden shed unique to their mine, which was small enough to fit a plank bed and a wooden table, and there were four or five wooden sheds in a row.

"Steward Li, Xu Tian has something I want to ask you. Xu Tian found Steward Li's wooden shed.

"Oh, it's you~ What's the matter, what can you tell me straight, come, come in and sit down. Steward Li had a kind face, and asked Xu Tian to come in and sit down with a smile.

"Steward Li, is there a swamp near this mine?" asked Xu Tian tentatively.

"The swamp, yes, it's not very far east of the mine, what's wrong?" replied Steward Lee.

"No, I just listened to everyone, so I came and asked if this was true. Xu Tian smiled.

"Hehe~ There are monsters in that swamp, we mine miners, if we do something wrong or say the wrong thing, we will be thrown into that swamp by the mine owner, and more than 20 people have been thrown over, and none of them have returned, alas..."Steward Li sighed.

"Monsters, what kind of monsters?!" Xu Tian asked knowingly, actually wanting to inquire about the origin of the swamp monster.

"I haven't seen this with my own eyes, but I've heard that a big tree has become a spirit, and anyone who comes near the swamp will be caught by its trunk and eaten. Steward Li said simply.

"The big tree has become a spirit?" Xu Tian heard Steward Li say this, and remembered that the appearance of the swamp monster was indeed very similar to a big tree, could it be that the swamp monster here was different from me in the book?

"This big tree spirit, there is a person in the city who has seen it, you want to know, you can go and ask him if you have a chance, his name is Dongsheng, and he is a giant medicine merchant in Beicheng. Steward Li said to Xu Tian.

"Well, by the way, when will the wages be settled?" Xu Tian asked again.

"What's the problem with settling this month's wages in three days?" Steward Li became enthusiastic.

"That's not true, Steward Li, I have a good herb here, can you help me go to the Wancaotang in the city to exchange for some money, of course, I won't let you help in vain!" Xu Tian has already calculated, even if he gets his salary in three days, he will only have forty-eight copper coins, what can he do!

"Take out the herbs and I'll take a look. Li said.

Xu Tian put both hands on his chest, pretending to be looking for it inside his clothes, but in fact he wanted to cover it up, because the herbs were in the storage ring, so he wouldn't be found if he took it.

The spiritual power searched inside, and took out a silver-white foxtail grass, the master said that the foxtail grass belongs to the middle and upper grades, but it is also considered the best for ordinary people.

As soon as the white fox tail grass was taken out, Steward Li's eyes began to glow, and he didn't bother to ask Xu Tian where the herb came from, so he hurriedly agreed, and directly 'snatched' it from Xu Tian's hand, and then asked Xu Tian to go back and wait for him.

Seeing Steward Li's reaction, Xu Tian felt that what the master said was very right, if it wasn't the best, why didn't he rob it without asking himself, but since it was the best, it would definitely be able to sell it at a good price, wait for his good news for the time being, and then he would be a little bit.

Xu Tian went back.

Steward Li went to the wooden sheds of several other mines to explain a few words, and then hurried to the city.

Wancaotang

"Hey~ Isn't this the Li steward of the Zhang family! Why do you have time to come to my Wancaotang today!"

"Shopkeeper Wang, I have a big deal today, can you invite your master to talk!" Steward Li said that the giant pharmaceutical merchant Dongsheng.

"This ...... You'll have to let me see it first, won't you?" The king's shopkeeper was embarrassed to talk to their master about the deal, but it was not easy to agree.

As he spoke, Steward Li looked around, took out the white fox tail grass in his sleeve like a thief, only showed it to the shopkeeper Wang, and immediately put it away again.

"White fox grass?!" the king shopkeeper was surprised

"Yes, now you can go and invite your master!" said Steward Li.

"You wait, I'll go and say" Shopkeeper Wang ran to the inner room, the white fox tail grass is the best medicinal material, they Wancaotang can't receive a single plant for a few years! Now someone has come to sell it, of course they have to tell the master, and the price has to be set by the master.

The inner room was elegant and quiet, and there was a faint smell of medicine wafting in the air, and Dong Sheng was refining medicine in the Danfang.

The shopkeeper Wang stood outside the door of the Danfang, he knew that he could not disturb the master when refining the medicine, even if the sky fell, he had to wait for the master to practice this medicine in his hand, if he disturbed the master and wasted any precious medicinal materials, then he would be finished.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Dongsheng's medicine had been completed, and he knew that the shopkeeper Wang was waiting outside the door, so he closed his head and walked out of the Dan room.

"What's the matter?" Dongsheng asked.

Dong Sheng is dressed in white, with a mahogany hairpin on his head, his face is handsome and extraordinary, he rarely shows up on weekdays, and spends almost all of his time on refining medicine and practicing.

"The proprietor, the head of the mine, Steward Li, brought a fox tail grass and was waiting for the proprietor in the outer hall. The king's shopkeeper was half-bowed, and his hands were folded, very respectful.

"White fox tail, do you see clearly?" Dong Sheng's eyes flashed with a hint of disbelief.

"You can see clearly, the quality is excellent! it's silvery!" replied the king's shopkeeper.

Dongsheng listened to the tone of the shopkeeper Wang was very sure, so he walked out of the hall, and the shopkeeper Wang followed behind him lightly.

As soon as Steward Li saw Dongsheng, he hurriedly got up and saluted: "Proprietor!"

"Enter the inner hall. Dongsheng took Steward Li into the inner hall, and the shopkeeper Wang waited in the outer hall.

Entering the inner hall, Steward Li carefully took out the white fox grass, did not speak, and waited for Dongsheng to make an offer.

"This white fox tail grass, the quality is really good, Steward Li, you should make a heart price first!" Dong Sheng said.

"The proprietor is polite, I am also entrusted by others, one hundred and twenty gold coins, I don't know if the proprietor can accept it?"

"Hehe... Although the white fox tail grass is precious, it is really a medium-class medicinal material, eighty gold, and it is not cost-effective for me to do more. "Dongsheng lowered the price, not everyone in Beicheng has such a big hand, and the medicine merchant is the dominant family in Wancaotang, and I am afraid that the white fox grass will not be accepted elsewhere, because it is difficult to sell it if it is collected.

But Dongsheng is different, his kung fu of refining medicine is not very powerful, but he also has a lot of experience, and the precious medicinal materials in his hands can earn several times.

Steward Li thought about it, he knew that Dongsheng was a well-known "black-hearted businessman", but eighty gold coins was also a lot of money, anyway, it was to help Xu Tianlai sell, so it was better to sell Dongsheng a favor.

"Okay, since the proprietor said this price, then I won't ask for more!" said Steward Li, who presented the white fox tail grass.

"I don't know who Steward Li is entrusted with, but if you can introduce this person to me, I will definitely thank you," Dongsheng said.

Steward Li hurriedly agreed, then said goodbye and waited in the outer hall.

Dongsheng called the shopkeeper Wang and asked him to take out ninety gold for Steward Li.

After the shopkeeper Wang took out the gold coins from the treasury of the inner hall, he put them in a money bag, and then handed them to Steward Li: "Steward Li, here is ninety gold, look at it." ”

Ninety gold? Isn't it eighty gold? Steward Li felt strange in his heart, and then suddenly understood, thinking that Dongsheng was really a big family, and when he went back, he would find a way to bring Xu Tian over, didn't Xu Tian also just want to know about the swamp tree spirit.

Steward Li thanked him, and then walked out of Wancao Hall, and walked back with his eyebrows fluttering.
