Xiong Ying clenched her teeth and was filled with worry.
"Why haven't you come up yet?"
Lao Dao handed the iron wheel to another worker and started spinning it around the mine, "I've been down there for a long time. I heard there's some kind of miasma?
That will cause people's souls to be sucked away by bad things without even realizing it. People without souls will never wake up."
Xiong Ying sighed, "That's called gas...forget it, I won't understand even if I tell you."
"Hey, tell me... what was the name of the girl who slept with Luo Xuan earlier?"
Lao Dao took Xiong Ying's arm and asked, "Didn't that girl say that Luo Xuan found jade underneath...
But I don't understand. Luo Xuan obviously doesn't need to go down the well, he can just stay up there and be responsible for looking at which rocks contain jade!
Why did he go down there? Even if he wanted to steal jade...he had no place to hide."
Xiong Ying shook his head, "Luo Xuan naturally has his purpose when he goes down the well. In my opinion, he is definitely not just trying to steal jade."
"Besides, it can't be stolen!"
Xiong Ying was also puzzled, "The original stone is not just a piece of paper or a piece of cloth. Who can steal something so heavy and bulging?"
The two were talking.
"Jingle Bell--"
Xiong Ying suddenly heard the small bell ringing at the mouth of the well... It was the person under the well pulling the string.
Notify Lao Dao and the others in charge of shaking the iron pulley: There is someone or something underground and they need to be lifted up.
Shake the iron handle.
When the person under the well showed up, Lao Dao was overjoyed: "Hahaha, it's Luo Xuan! It's Luo Xuan who's come up!"
Out of the well.
Luo Xuan untied the rope around his body and said to Lao Dao: "Next, your work will be heavy. All the people waiting to go down the mine must evacuate."
Lao Dao was startled: "Are we going to set off a cannon?"
"Um."
Luo Xuan nodded, "I have already found a relatively large piece of jade underground. It's just buried a bit deep, so it's difficult to dig it out manually, so I can only blast it."
Xiong Ying was overjoyed when he saw Luo Xuan ascending to the well safely, "I have some good news for you!
The rough stone you just asked the girl to specially deliver was inspected by an appraiser and said it was indeed a piece of jade."
"very good."
Luo Xuan smiled slightly, "I believe that with this piece of jade in the lead, Captain Snake and the appraisers will trust what I say more."
"you do not say!"
Lao Dao laughed and said, "This mine has not dug out jade as big as a pigeon egg for three days.
When you went down today, you found a piece of jade, and Captain Snake was very happy!"
Luo Xuan lowered his voice, "Whether he is happy or not is none of my business? I just want to take this opportunity to let them get more medicine so that they can fire more shots underground.
In this way, you can dig out more medicine...be careful, the firing of firecrackers will be intensive these two days."
Luo Xuan told Lao Dao, "You must collect as many medicines and tubes as possible while keeping confidentiality.
Within a few days, I will start to take action... I must keep it secret! I must collect more of that thing!"
Lao Dao nodded solemnly, "Okay! I promise to get enough for you within three days."
Xiong Ying slapped his chest, "If it's not enough, I'll be willing to be cut into oil by you, Luo Xuan!"
Cut you?
Willing to be oil?
It turns out that reduced glycerin is made... like this?
It seems that Xiong Ying's chemistry was probably taught to her by the uncle in the reception room.
It was almost noon at this time, and the workers who had gone down to the well had to prepare to have lunch after they came up from the well.
This lunch is to ensure the nutrition of these workers who perform high-intensity work.
So compared to the canteen in the camp, the food is actually better.
At least there's meat.
It's just that what kind of meat is in it... is a bit unclear.
Anyway, when Luo Xuan was in the grass around the mine, he saw the paws of monkeys, the tails of field mice, the tusks of wild boars, and the heads of pythons...
Countless flies were flying around these wreckage.
Densely packed centipedes are walking through it...
It's disgusting to watch.
There was no way to excavate rough stones in the mine in the afternoon, so the main purpose was to fire cannons in order to continue to expand the working surface deeper.
There is no point in continuing to stay here.
Luo Xuan searched for several pieces of low- to medium-quality jade in the abandoned piles of rocks, and handed them over to the eager Captain Snake.
Amidst Captain Snake's repeated thanks, he was "escorted" by two armed guards and returned to the camp.
Noon is the hottest time in Miaowa.
At this time, the area behind the entire camp,
Including the Happy House, the area where some of the jade mine's top managers, general managers and big bosses lived, were all surrounded by the annoying chirping of cicadas.
There are countless chirping cicadas, which make people upset but have no temper.
at this time,
Except for the guards on duty, everyone else was lying in bed taking a lunch break. Everyone could only pass this difficult time by sleeping.
The leaves drooped wilfully.
The scorching sun makes those who shine dare not look directly.
Even the surging wind carries a hot and dry air that makes people feel sticky, which is very unpleasant...
Luo Xuan entered the chief steward's mansion.
Most people in the huge house had gone to take a lunch break.
Only the housekeeper Xu Nina was still scolding a Filipino maid in the courtyard, "You believe in that religion and you are not allowed to lie, right?
Huh, let me ask you, have you seen Luo Xuan today?"
The Filipino maid replied with a grimace, "No! Didn't you stipulate that we can't even take a step outside the gate of this house? Butler Xu, I really don't know where Luo Xuan went..."
"Didn't you lie to me?"
Xu Nina hit the young Filipino maid on the head with the whip handle, "Secretary Liu didn't come to work this morning.
The person who can manipulate Luo Xuan here is her... Oh, I'm really anxious to death!
Eh? What are you still doing here? Get out! If you see Luo Xuan this afternoon, come and tell me quickly, do you hear me? Otherwise, I will whip you to death!"
Xu Nina raised the whip in her hand, ready to strike.
The maid was so frightened that she quickly bowed to Xu Nina, turned around and ran away...
Luo Xuan quietly approached Xu Nina and reached out to grab her whip, "Have you not vented your anger yet?"
Xu Nina turned her anger into joy, "I hate you! Where have you been all morning? I went to the kitchen to see you several times, but I couldn't find you. There's no one at the stables either."
Luo Xuan replied, "From now on, things at the stables are no longer under my control. The chief manager asked me to work in the mines from now on."
"ah?"
Xu Nina was shocked, "I know, the chief executive has thoughts about you... Well, let me tell you, in half a year, the chief executive will...
Forget it, forget it! Live happily. Even if I tell you, it won't change anything."
Luo Xuan stretched out his hand, "Where's the map?"
Xu Nina stamped her foot, "How annoying! Why do you ask for a map as soon as we meet? Hey, let me tell you, if you give up on this idea... you can't escape."
"It needs to be cleaned up."
Luo Xuan grunted, "Go get the map. Whether it's life or death, I have to try."
Xu Nina winked and said, "The map is on me, you can get it yourself."
Next,
It is to take the map link with strength,
The scene dripping with sweat and body fluids was really not beautiful at all.
I took a smaller version of the map.
Luo Xuan came to the "Inferior Happy House" again, ready to talk to Miss Egret.
"Hey, are you Luo Xuan?"
The old lady from Happy House had met Luo Xuan once, and she had made countless people happy, but she was able to never forget her.
"Didn't you get Mr. Bao... No, no, no, didn't you already get the appreciation of the Chief Manager?"
The old lady smiled and said, "I heard that you are very prosperous now!
It stands to reason that at your level you can go to the medium-sized Happy House. What, you want to come to my place today?"
Luo Xuan waved his hand, "I don't have Happy Tickets."
The old woman grinned and said, "If you don't have Happy Vouchers, you can have cash. Thai baht or US dollars are all fine."
Luo Xuan shook his head, "I don't have any money either."
"If you don't bring a penny, you still want to eat good food?"
The old lady's face darkened, "Go, go, my lady, this is not a mushroom house... Even if it is a mushroom house, you still have to carry a few pheasants there, right?"
Luo Xuan replied, "I have done meritorious service today, and I will have Happy Vouchers in two days. I will make up for it when the time comes. Why are you so angry?"
When the old lady heard this,
His anger suddenly turned into joy, "Hey! Let me tell you, someone who can be appreciated by Mr. Bao and the Chief Manager.
How come we can’t afford to play in the lowest Happy House like us? Come on, come on, please come inside...
Tell me, sister, have you taken a liking to me here?"
Luo Xuan chuckled, "Two days ago, I saw a very short, thin girl standing at the door of your yard. I just don't know... what's her name?"
The old woman leading the way was stunned, "Her? That's the Egret girl. Humph, she's so thin... and she's not afraid of getting in trouble?"
Luo Xuan smiled and said, "I will choose her."
The old lady pouted, "Okay! But you remember everything.
As soon as your reward comes out, you have to take the happy coupons and tell me to make up for it as soon as possible..."
Luo Xuan nodded in agreement.
This morning,
I searched for a few pieces of jade of low quality among the waste residue in the mine.
According to the rules of the mine,
You can get a few Happy Vouchers as a reward.
It may be to distribute rewards, and there are internal procedures that need to be followed. It is estimated that those Happy Vouchers will have to wait until tomorrow before they can be issued to me.
Now I have the map in hand.
The medicine that can "peng" and the tube that makes thunder are almost ready...
It's time to officially implement your escape plan.
"Why is it you? Luo Xuan, why are you here?"
The egret who was taking a nap got up lazily, "I thought there were guests, and they came to play at noon... But no one of those guests wanted to come to me."
Luo Xuan didn't want to be too specific with her,
He just pushed the egret into the room, then leaned into her ear and whispered, "You have to be prepared for this period of time.
Maybe when I see an opportunity, I will come over to you and take you out for a walk..."
"Take a walk?"
The egret was a little puzzled, "Take me to the surrounding woods to take a walk and relax? That's not possible. If Captain Tiger sees it, he will shoot me twice."
Luo Xuan smiled slightly, "It's a bit boring to stay in one place for too long. Anyway, just be prepared. I may take you out for a walk."
Seeing that Luo Xuan was talking nonsense.
The egret was full of doubts.
But seeing that Luo Xuan was already sleeping soundly, she didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Instead, he sat aside and used cardboard to fan the rotor to drive away mosquitoes...
