Chapter 516: The Strong Man and the Fool

Fu Lu Shou Jade?!

Xiao Luoyi and Chen Huaijin looked at each other and became serious: "Where is the person you are talking about?"

"In my city..."

As soon as he finished speaking, King Shao Guang realized: he himself is now a prisoner, so what is the point of "my city"?
However, Xiao Luoyi had no time to care about this. She nodded decisively: "If the secret you told me is useful to me, I promise you that after you die, King Saibang will bury you in the ancestral tomb."

"Thank you, Princess..."

As King Shaoguang kowtowed to express his gratitude, they left in a hurry.

Soon, someone came to treat King Shaoguang's leg injury and brought him food.

However, there is no point in torturing someone who only has three months left to live.

It is better to show your kindness and gain a good reputation for being generous.

Chen Huaijin sent people to Shaoguang Palace overnight to look for people and treasures.

The people were captured by Chen Huaijin, the territory was occupied by Chen Huaijin, and the things were calculated by Xiao Luoyi. How could Yang Beichen fight for these things?
Yang Beichen took the initiative to say, "It's late at night. My cousin and Prince Zhong, why don't you rest today? After breakfast tomorrow, I will send someone to accompany you to the jade mine."

Xiao Luoyi and Chen Huaijin said goodbye and went back to the house. After washing up, they finally relaxed completely.

Xiao Luoyi was still wet, so the two of them had no choice but to give up and go to sleep.

But when she woke up in the morning, Xiao Luoyi found herself being hugged tightly by Chen Huaijin!
Xiao Luoyi struggled to get up, but couldn't. When she looked up, she met Chen Huaijin's smirking face.

I realized that Chen Huaijin had woken up a long time ago. He noticed that I was about to wake up, so he deliberately held me tightly in his arms.

"You bad guy!" Xiao Luoyi pushed him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Let go, I want to get up."

Chen Huaijin didn't listen: "It's still early, lie down for a while?"

"No need, we have other things to do today!" Xiao Luoyi said, pulling Chen Huaijin's arm and standing up.

Chen Huaijin also became curious: "I see that you attach great importance to this, what on earth is this?"

Xiao Luoyi then told Chen Huaijin the reason why Huang Da's lame leg suddenly healed.

Chen Huaijin met Uncle Da this time and was surprised that his leg was healed, but he didn't have time to ask in detail.

I heard that it was the mysterious power contained in a magic mirror that healed his leg overnight, and I suddenly felt it was incredible!

"Things that have power in them help with space, so I wanted to see if it was the same thing."

Xiao Luoyi's explanation made Chen Huaijin put on his clothes more quickly: "Then let's not waste time, let's go!"

When the two arrived at the dining room, Yang Beichen was already waiting there.

After the meal, the carriage set off.

When Xiao Luoyi saw the gray-yellow sand all over the mountains, he knew they were almost there.

Mining jade has never been a poetic thing.

Ordinary people have no idea of ​​the blood and sweat that goes into it.

Because Xiao Luoyi was coming, the jade mine stopped working today, and the old workers who had experienced it personally were called over to explain to Xiao Luoyi the process and location of the unearthed Fu Lu Shou jadeite.

Xiao Luoyi looked at the piles of dirt and rocks, feeling bewildered: the dirt and waste materials that had been dug out had been piled together, so who could tell which was which?
"Was there anything special next to the Fu Lu Shou jadeite?"

The old worker heard this and his eyes flickered: "Nothing... nothing..."

The steward next to him kicked him and said, "Tell the truth!"

The old worker was kicked and fell to his knees in fear: "Yes! There is a stone stick..."

"What stone stick?"

The old worker gestured: "This is a long and thin stone stick."

In the eyes of jade miners, there are only two kinds of stones: raw stones that can produce jade, and waste stones that cannot produce jade. The thin and long stone sticks were obviously not raw jade, so no one paid attention to them at the time.

Xiao Luoyi looked at the old worker's gesture: It looks like a stick...

But she couldn't be sure until she saw the real thing.

But Xiao Luoyi highly suspected: it was that thing.

Because when I saw the Yin-Yang Mirror at the construction site of Xuantian Gate before, it was also gray and looked like a millstone.

"And the stick?"

The old worker stammered, "It was taken away..."

"Taken by who?"

The old worker gritted his teeth, looked at the manager, and told the truth.

"It was not Sun Shitou who dug out Fu Lu Shou, but Er Hanzi! Because Er Hanzi was small and Sun Shitou was tall and strong, he snatched Fu Lu Shou from Er Hanzi and gave it to the steward..."

In order to keep it secret, Sun Shitou also asked the manager to drive Erhanzi away!
Erhanzi left with that stone stick...

The manager knew that Xiao Luoyi and the others were probably here for Erhanzi, so he asked, "Where is Sun Shitou? And Erhanzi? Where is Erhanzi from?"

The old worker looked at the manager with some fear: "Sun Shitou was beaten to death the following year because of gambling."

"I don't know where the fool is from... We need workers here, when did we ask where they are from?"

Steward: "..."

The guard next to him also explained in a low voice.

It turns out that jade mines in different places offer different wages and meals to workers.

Relatively speaking, the wages and food offered by the emerald mine under the name of King Saibang are slightly better than those of other forces.

And if you really dig up good jade, you can get a reward.

Just for this reason, many poor families from other forces are willing to mine in the jade mine owned by King Saibang.

King Saibang was eager to have more people do the work, so he did not check their backgrounds.

Anyway, as long as the workers enter the mining area, they will be strictly monitored and cannot leave unless they are driven away by the manager or quit their jobs.

Xiao Luoyi suddenly asked: "Was his arm broken at that time?"

The old worker looked at Xiao Luoyi in surprise and quickly lowered his head: "How did you know that, sir?"

However, Xiao Luoyi already understood: it was indeed the young man that King Shaoguang mentioned last night.

Fortunately, I asked King Shaoguang last night, otherwise it would have been difficult to find the young man today.

Xiao Luoyi thought for a moment and asked Chen Huaijin, "If the young man is found, will he come here? Or will he be sent to the Saibang Palace?"

Chen Huaijin: "Send it to the Saibang Palace."

"Then let's go back first and let them handle the things here themselves."

It is not uncommon for people to seize the credit of others' achievements for their own benefit.

But he not only took away someone else's credit, but also broke his arm...this is too cruel!

Every place has its own set of management methods, so she doesn't get involved.

The group then turned back to the city.

By the time the carriage returned to the Saibang Palace, it was already evening and a day had passed.

A new batch of treasures and silver coins hidden by Prince Shaoguang were found, and two large boxes were pulled over by a horse-drawn carriage.

Xiao Luoyi glanced at the two boxes, then looked at the tower-like sturdy man in front of him. This man was at least 1.9 meters tall! Tall and strong!
