tsundere goddess in love with me

The door to the room was opened, and the steward's fat body stood at the door, almost blocking the entire door frame.

He looked at Lu Chuan and showed a friendly smile.

"Master Lu, please come in, please come in. The Lord of the City has already greeted me in advance. I knew you might come over today, so I specially ordered my men to guard the gate. They shouldn't give you any trouble, right?"

he asked with a smile.

"Of course not, I walked in smoothly."

"That's good, come in and sit down, just like you're at your own home."

He turned around and returned to his chair, picked up a boar leg on the table and started to chew on it.

"If Mr. Lu came to visit this time, why did he come to visit you?"

he asked with a friendly smile.

"I'm here to collect fire-attribute ores. The higher the quality, the better. Do you have any here?"

"Fire-attributed ore? There are some that are mined, but the purity is very low. It's the kind that feels warm when picked up, but not very hot."

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, "So, there is no high-purity ore at all?"

"Of course, if such a rare ore is mined, it must be handed over as soon as possible. I don't dare to keep it secretly."

He then rolled his eyes and suggested: "You might as well ask the city lord, he might have hidden a lot of ore."

"He told me, he didn't."

"It's impossible. How could the city lord not have it? I guess he might not be willing to give it to you, so he lied that he didn't have it."

The steward quickly covered his mouth and said cautiously: "Don't tell the city lord what I just said, otherwise, he will definitely cause trouble for me."

"You mean, the city lord lied to me?"

Lu Chuan frowned.

"It's just a possibility. I just said it casually. Don't take it too seriously."

Dongfang Cheng, who was next to him, quickly reminded: "Lu Chuan, I don't think it's possible. It's impossible for the city lord to lie to you. He doesn't look like that kind of person."

Lu Chuan nodded slightly. He was Yuan Tiancheng's savior. He had vowed to repay him before, so he couldn't turn around and lie to him.

In contrast, if he wanted to be the first to suspect someone of lying, Lu Chuan must first suspect the fat man in front of him.

"Is it true that you haven't excavated anything here? Are they all ordinary ores?"

"Of course. If I dig something good, why would I stay here where birds don't poop?"

Lu Chuan nodded helplessly, "It seems this trip was in vain. Let's go to the next mining area."

"Then let's leave first, and you can continue your work."

Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng stood up and turned to leave.

After watching the two people leave, the chief steward breathed a sigh of relief. After heaving a sigh of relief, he put down the boar leg in his hand and pulled out the drawer.

"Phew! Fortunately, we weren't discovered."

He laughed cheerfully.

Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng came downstairs and followed the stone brick road to leave.

"The first mine failed and it was a bad start."

Dongfang Cheng said with a smile.

"Then what can we do? Yuan Tiancheng said that this is a rare mineral vein, but nothing was dug out. It can only be said that it is bad luck."

"Let's go to the next place."

The two were walking together. Halfway through, Lu Chuan was caught by a bright light.

Turning around, I saw a little boy of eleven or twelve years old, holding a small stone in his hand and staring at it intently. Lu Chuan walked towards him and saw that what he was holding was not an ordinary stone, but a small crystal.

The light green crystal exudes a faint glow.

Although the crystal is not big, its transparency is very high. Such pure crystals are really rare.

"Kid, where did you get this crystal?"

Lu Chuan asked.

The boy was suddenly startled by Lu Chuan's voice. He quickly hid the crystal in his pocket, looked at Lu Chuan, and shook his head quickly.

"What crystal? There is no crystal. You are wrong."

The smile on Lu Chuan's face froze when he opened his eyes and told lies.

"I've already seen it. There's no point in hiding it. Don't worry, I'm not interested in the crystal in your hand. I'm just asking you how you got it."

The boy rubbed his hair and didn't know whether to say anything for a moment.

"Well, I can tell you that my father is a worker here. He hid a small piece of crystal, which I stole."

After he finished speaking, he quickly warned: "You must not tell others, let alone my father!"

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, "Don't worry, I won't tell others."

"That means you can find high-purity crystals in this mine, right?"

"Of course, this is a rare mineral vein. It is normal to find crystals with high purity. Other ores can also be found easily."

Lu Chuan smiled and said, "It seems that I was deceived. By the way, let me ask you a question. Are there many fire-attribute ores or crystals in this mine?"

"Fire-attributed ones? Of course there are, but it's not much. Ninety percent of them will be sent to the city after mining. We can keep some of them."

"You know, this place is relatively far from Tiannan City, so the 10% left behind is the real rare ore."

"Unless the city lord visits here, otherwise, these ores will be taken away by the boss here."

Lu Chuan smiled and touched the boy's head, "Thank you for telling me this."

"It's okay, as long as you don't worry about what I have on me."

Lu Chuan smiled and said, "Why would I care about something on a little boy? I want to care about that adult fat pig."

Lu Chuan turned around and walked back.

"Lu Chuan, this guy really lied. When we were in the room just now, I saw that he was very dishonest. Sure enough, this fat guy has his own agenda!"

"He actually threw the blame on the city lord and wanted us to cause trouble for the city lord. His plan was really loud."

Lu Chuan smiled calmly, "Now, I can break up with him. There is no need to talk nonsense with him. Since he doesn't give me face, then I won't give him face!"

"You're not going to go in and take action directly later, are you? But that's okay, that guy's strength is definitely not as good as yours!"

Lu Chuan clenched his fist and said, "I have plenty of ways to teach him a lesson."

Arriving at the gate, Lu Chuan was stopped by the guard.

"You two, you can't go in now, you've already gone in once!"

Lu Chuan looked at the guard. Obviously, this was the chief steward's greeting.

"You won't let me in, right? So why should I go in today?"

Lu Chuan asked.

"Sorry, if you insist, then we can only use force to solve it."

"Okay, I was just thinking about using force to solve the problem, come on now!"

Lu Chuan pulled out the Soul-Breaking Sword and was ready to fight. (End of chapter)
