Li Duojin chuckled: "I want to hire you to protect me for a while."

Sheng Xi didn't understand: "Don't you have your own bodyguard? Or are you a monk in the name of the gods?"

There were only his own people present, so Li Duojin didn't hide anything from them: "Elder Ouyang feels that I left without permission and ruined his record of zero accidents in his bodyguard career, so he has resigned."

This elder Ouyang is the monk in the early stage of becoming a god who secretly protected Li Duojin. He is an early stage monk who lacks spiritual stones.

Sheng Xi asked cautiously: "Did he leave on his own, or did Senior Su Tao ask him to leave because he felt that he didn't even notice that you were leaving?"

Li Duojin smiled and said nothing.

When he was like this, Sheng Xi immediately guessed that it was the latter: "Didn't Wuya Pavilion arrange a new god-transformation monk for you?"

"It was arranged, but I didn't think it was suitable for you, so I refused." Li Duojin looked at them eagerly.

Xiao Liluo tried his best to hide behind Yuan Xian.

Xia Mingshan's eyes shone and he nodded repeatedly: "I also think we are a good match. How many spiritual stones do you plan to pay to hire us?"

Li Duojin looked at him strangely: "This matter has nothing to do with you. You two are still going to catch me."

Xia Mingshan, who originally thought he would have a new job, was disappointed: "We are also good at protecting people, please consider us."

Li Duojin resolutely refused to consider it, and made a lot of calculations.

Xia Mingshan and Chai Wei went to catch those hard-to-catch old villains, which was the most cost-effective option for Wuya Pavilion.

If he asked them to protect him, he would have to hire experts to catch him. Wouldn't he have to spend an extra sum of spiritual stones?

The polar bear couldn't wait to get out of the spirit beast bag on Sheng Xi's waist, and glanced at Xia Mingshan and Chai Wei with disgust:

"Who can you protect with your level of cultivation? Of course, this matter must be left to me."

His short tail waggled unconsciously, circling around Li Duojin, waiting expectantly for him to hire him.

"Boy, just watch it. I am a professional protector! I have guarded a Thousand-Year-Old Silver Snow Tianzhi for thousands of years."

Yan Che sneered: "Then when Yinxue Tianzhi matured, she was deceived by Sheng Ruyue."

The polar bear roared with fury: "Don't tell!"

The volume was so loud that the ground around him trembled slightly. Yan Che leaned against the talisman and hid behind Yuan Xian.

The dark red octopus tentacles came out of Sheng Xi's other spirit animal bag, directly wrapped around the polar bear, and stuffed it back into his own spirit animal bag.

"Damn octopus! Let me out!" the polar bear yelled angrily.

Not only did Squidward not let him out, he also used another tentacle to tightly squeeze the mouth of the spirit beast bag.

"Okay, I will give you spiritual stones when you make meritorious deeds." Sheng Xi comforted the polar bear and asked Li Duojin, "You must have a special purpose for hiring us, right?"

Li Duojin came back to his senses from the scene just now and saw that the protection method to isolate the outside world was still there, so he said directly:
"The Li family holds a family competition every five years. The children of the Li family who participate in the competition will receive the same capital to do business."

"Whoever earns the most during the competition will be the winner of this round of family competition and have the opportunity to join the power center of the Li family."

"You are already the Young Pavilion Master, do you still need to participate in such a competition?" Lu Xiang asked.

Li Duojin was a little disappointed: "My spiritual qualifications are not good. Many people in the clan are dissatisfied with me and want to remove me from the position of Young Pavilion Master."

"But even those with good qualifications must participate in the competition. This is a rigid rule of the family. It is also to screen out outstanding talents and avoid the decline of the family."

"Then why are you in trouble now?" Xiao Liluo bravely got his head out from behind Yuan Xian.Seeing Li Duojin looking at him following the voice, he quickly retracted his head.

Both sword cultivators, Yuan Xian and Xiao Liluo have similar statures.

Li Duojin looked at the hint of pink peeking out from behind Yuan Xian's black clothes, and suddenly felt a little glad that Xiao Liluo was not his brother.

How could his brother, such a domineering and cool person, turn into a bear who always likes to wear pink skirts?

"During the competition, all businesses can only operate with the capital obtained at the beginning of the competition."

"I used the money to buy a mine. The mine has been operating well, but for some unknown reason recently, accidents have occurred frequently."

"The mines always collapse, and all the ore that has been tempered turns into powder, and there are also casualties."

"I suspect it is caused by humans, but I can't find the problem. I would like to ask for your help."

Li Duojin has asked many people to check and spent a lot of spiritual stones, but he has not been able to solve the problem.

Now that he knew from Immortal Lingfeng that Sheng Xi had many fantastic ideas, Li Duojin wanted to try his luck.

The Li family has rich experience in mineral mining, and Li Duojin is young and mature. The workers he uses must be skilled workers, and they will not make simple mistakes because of unfamiliar mining techniques.

Since he spent a lot of spiritual stones but couldn't find the problem, I'm afraid this matter is really not simple.

"Do you have anyone to suspect?" Sheng Xi asked.

Li Duojin hesitated for a moment and said, "I suspect it's Second Uncle and the others. This time, Second Uncle's son, my cousin Li Duofu, also participated."

"Before the accident in the mine, he was ranked behind me. As long as he surpassed me, he would be number one, and he had the greatest motive for committing the crime."

When he was kidnapped, Li Duojin immediately guessed that his second uncle Li Youkuang was behind the plan. This showed that the relationship between the two families was not good, and the relationship between him and his cousin Li Duofu should not be good either.

However, Li Duojin cannot make random accusations without evidence.

Moreover, the Li family has been able to develop such a large business because healthy competition is actually encouraged within the family.

As long as nothing serious happens, the ancestors will turn a blind eye to this level of competition.

A purely kind person cannot survive in the southeastern spiritual world where swords and swords are everywhere, let alone support a huge family like the Li family.

Xia Mingshan and Chai Wei realized that they couldn't help with this matter, and after agreeing to keep Li Duojin a secret, the brothers decided to go to the dock outside the city to guard Lao Lai.

Sheng Xi suddenly felt that they were a little miserable and asked Li Duojin: "Senior Su Tao is a monk from the Wushuang Sect. Don't you have any business dealings with the Wushuang Sect?"

"Of course there is. Under the same conditions, we will give priority to Wushuang Sect."

Li Duojin paused, embarrassed to speak too bluntly, and said very euphemistically and reluctantly, "We really tried our best."

Xia Mingshan and Chai Wei looked up at the sky at 45 degrees, determined not to cry.

Wuya Pavilion Chang Sleeve Fanwu managed the relationship with any force very well. They could not blindly favor Wushuang Sect.

But if the previous poverty of Wushuang Sect was the result of Wuya Pavilion's best efforts to take care of it, then it can only be said that the entire sect was born poor.

Forget it, let's help as much as possible in the future. These sword cultivators are really pitiful.

The God of Shengcai thought so compassionately and accepted Li Duojin's employment: "First take us to the mine to have a look."

Whether it was for the sake of the spirit stone or Xiao Liluo, Sheng Xi had no reason to refuse Li Duojin's employment. (End of chapter)
