Immortality and Immortality: Liver Experience Begins in the Desert

Chapter 259: Chain Set

In the Lu family's ore refining shop, the white-bearded steward rubbed the dust off his hands and asked in a slightly surprised tone:

"Fellow Taoist, you want me to refine more than 300 pieces of 'Blue Hidden Stone'?"

Xie Lingfei nodded and said, "I wonder if your store can take over this business?"

"In ten days, more than 300 pieces of 'Blue Hidden Stone' will be refined. As long as they can be delivered on time, I am willing to increase the price by one-tenth."

"this."

When the white-bearded manager heard this, his eyes lit up. Due to the characteristics of "Blue Hidden Stone", refining requires a higher method, so the price is higher, but if there are matching equipment, the cost price can be kept very low. .

In general, the benefits of refining "Blue Hidden Stone" are very high.

Considering the situation of his own shop, Manager Whitebeard hesitated for a moment, then said with a firm smile:
"Please rest assured, fellow Taoist, the goods will be delivered to you within ten days."

Although there are only about three people in the shop who can refining the "Blue Hidden Stone" stably, in the opinion of Steward Whitebeard, if they squeeze them, the ore can still be refined within the time limit.

Furthermore, to take a step back, the food in the store is a bit unsatisfactory, but it is barely usable.

At least the "Blue Hidden Stone" handed over by those who fished in troubled waters has not been questioned by Xie Lingfei.

With this mentality, Steward Whitebeard readily agreed.

"Manager Xue is so happy, let's sign the spiritual contract."

Seeing Manager Xue agreeing, Xie Lingfei couldn't help but smile, and then took out the spiritual deed and handed it over.

Manager Xue took the spiritual deed and scanned it with his spiritual consciousness, leaving a spiritual mark. At the same time, he also took out the store's seal and stamped it on it.

After taking back the spiritual contract, Xie Lingfei left a large bag of raw Qingyin stone full of impurities and turned around to leave.

Watching Xie Lingfei go away, Manager Xue turned around and walked from the guest room to the furnace room. He went straight to an old man with a hunchback and asked:

"Mr. Ji, can you refine three hundred pieces of 'Blue Hidden Stone' in ten days?"

"No."

The hunchbacked old man glanced at Manager Xue, shook his head, and said without hesitation: "I still have some ore to refine, and I don't have time to refine the 'Qingyin Stone'."

Manager Xue's face darkened slightly and asked: "There is no need to refine the other ores. Let's refine the 'Qingyin Stone' first."

"The refining of 'Blue Hidden Stone' takes a long time. I can only refine about five pieces in one day at most. It is impossible to refine three hundred pieces in ten days."

The hunchbacked old man said calmly.

"Ask Guan Tao, He Ying and others to help you, and you must refine three hundred pieces of 'Blue Hidden Stone' within ten days!"

There was no mention of those who were cheating or cheating at all in the words, as if the hunchbacked old man and others were to take full responsibility for the hard work of refining the "Blue Hidden Stone".

The hunchbacked old man seemed to have long been accustomed to the attitude of the store manager. His tone was calm, without any hint of anger, and he said calmly:
"Add a set of first-grade high-quality equipment to a hundred spiritual stones, and I guess you can barely finish refining it. Otherwise, you can find someone else to do it."

"Refining ore cannot be done by just shouting."

When Manager Xue heard this, he felt a little unhappy for a moment and said in a cold voice: "The shop paid a high price for you to come here, but you are not here to support the ancestors. What do you want to do if you don't take action at the critical moment?"

The hunchbacked old man still said in a calm tone: "Three hundred pieces of 'Blue Hidden Stone' are not easy. If Manager Xue finds it easy, ask your ancestors to refine it."

The words were spoken in a calm tone, but their meaning was very specific, and they were an undisguised insult to Manager Xue.

As soon as he said this, the sneaky person next to him took the opportunity to say: "Jichang, what do you mean, you don't want to do it anymore?"

A female cultivator standing next to her said to her, "Be polite to the manager. You're relying on your elders day by day. I can't stand you for a long time!"

"Yes, yes, I can't stand it anymore. If it's not relevant, just get out. It's so weird every day."

Another cheater said in displeasure.

Hearing this, the hunchbacked old man silently put down the ore in his hand, nodded and said, "It's a good suggestion. I'll leave now."

With that said, the hunchbacked old man patted the dust in his hands and left with an indifferent expression.

Seeing this scene, the sneaky people were slightly startled, and some of the crafty cultivators even sneered and ridiculed.

Compared with the short-sighted sneaky people, Manager Xue obviously knew the situation of the shop, so he quickly stopped the old man, and his tone instantly became kind:
"Hey, Mr. Ji, don't be angry. We are all fellow monks in the same shop. There is no need for us to be angry with each other."

"Let's talk about the 'Blue Hidden Stone' slowly."

"If you don't have enough manpower, just tell me and the fellow monks here can help."

Although the hunchbacked old man had acted like he was running away from time to time over the years, and everyone was used to it, Manager Xue never dared to agree.

After all, the hunchbacked old man was the backbone of the Lu family's ore refining shop, and he could get angry as many times as he wanted.

But Manager Xue can't be willful, otherwise the store will probably be closed completely, and he will naturally not end well by then.

"Three hundred pieces of 'Blue Hidden Stone' need to be taken by all the monks in the shop, otherwise they won't be refined in ten days."

Although the hunchbacked old man was often criticized in the shops, he was treated well.

Moreover, his family members are all cultivating in the Lu family, and their relationship network is relatively complicated. It is like they were ordered to come here, so they did not really leave.

"All the monks in the shop are going to take action? What are you doing? We still have a bunch of ore that needs to be refined! How can we have time to refine the 'Blue Hidden Stone'?"

A group of sneaky people were lazing around comfortably in the shop. When they saw that they were about to do something, they were all very reluctant.

"That's right! We are very busy and don't have time to refine the 'Blue Hidden Stone'!"

"You've been in our shop for so long and you can't even refine a 'Blue Hidden Stone'. What are you going to do for food?"

Some people who are cheating and cheating are even more disrespectful in their tone. They are all related households. They are usually lazy, arrogant, extravagant and have bad character. Once their own interests are touched, they will not be polite at all.

The hunchbacked old man said nothing and looked at Manager Xue silently.

Manager Xue was lost in thought, and while hesitating, he suddenly received a message from his family.

He used his spiritual consciousness to scan the transmission notes, his eyes flashed slightly, and his expression changed slightly.

Withdrawing his spiritual consciousness, he looked serious and asked: "There are still some ores in the shop that need to be refined, and we need several people."

"How about this, leave three people to refine the remaining ores, and the rest can refine the 'Blue Hidden Stone' with Mr. Ji?"

When the hunchbacked old man heard this, his expression was indifferent, he did not say anything, did not fall into the pit, and said silently:
"All matters in the store will be handled by the manager himself. I am only responsible for refining the ore and will not take care of the rest."

They were all old-fashioned, and the hunchbacked old man didn't answer the conversation at all, so as not to cause trouble.

After staying in the shop for a long time, he naturally knew the character and ability of the group of monks inside. Once he talked to the management, he would probably be responsible for training the sneakers and the specific details of refining the Qingyin Stone.

Maybe everything will fall on him in the end.

Seeing the hunchbacked old man's deprived appearance, Manager Xue was slightly unhappy, but did not have an attack.

However, without waiting for his next words, the sneakers next to him gave up and spoke out one after another.

"Manager Xue, I have a lot of ore to refine, and I really don't have time to refine the 'Blue Hidden Stone'!"

"." "Yes, yes! You, the manager, know the situation of our store. You have been very busy recently. For example, we have not finished the business of refining Zhaojiaxuan iron ore."

"."

"Why don't we recruit more people during this period!"

"."

Seeing the cheaters complaining one after another, Manager Xue turned cold, looked at the lazy monk who was the first to resist the order, and said angrily:
"You bastard, you have a bunch of ores to refine, and you still laze around every day. When you are on duty, you go to the restaurant to watch dancing and enjoy the music. I didn't bother to pay attention to you before."

"But in the future, if anyone tries to sneak in any business solicited in the shop, get out of here! This is my order, the order of Mr. Lu Yu and the Fifth Elder, and the order of the family!"

"If it's not relevant, get out! I'm really spoiling you!"

Manager Xue just received a message from Lu Yu, which mainly asked about the situation of the shops, and also issued a strict order.

That is to say, the store must make a large profit in the next six months, otherwise, I will apologize!

This order immediately confused Manager Xue.

When he came to his senses, he encountered the complaining sneak again. Naturally, he was furious and scolded him angrily.

After being scolded, a group of sneakers curled their lips and didn't care; or they lowered their eyes, feeling that they were not talking about themselves; or they looked unruly and arrogant.

Seeing such a scene, Xue Guanshi couldn't help but feel angry.

He directly gave the order in a cold voice to the monks present, and set a target for each of them to refine the 'Blue Hidden Stone'.

Among them, the hunchbacked old man had to refine 95 yuan, nearly one-third of it, but the promised rewards were sufficient, and three mainstays, such as Guan Tao and He Ying, would bear one-third.

The remaining one-third was borne by nine cheaters.

The remaining sneaky people, under the leadership of a mainstay monk, completed the remaining ore refining tasks.

Throughout the entire process, Manager Xue's orders were very strict and almost unquestionable.

After the order was given, he turned around and left, quickly using his spiritual consciousness to send a message to Lu Yu, asking what happened.

And watching Guanshi Xue leave, a group of monks in the shop were very unhappy.

The three or four mainstays were naturally unhappy with the sudden increase in workload. If they wanted to meet Guanshi Xue's target, they would need to spend the next ten days refining the Qingyin Mine non-stop, day and night.

And those who cheat and cheat are also unhappy because they have to do the work.

Although the tasks assigned to them by Manager Xue were relatively light, they couldn't stand the fact that they were all unskilled people. If they wanted to complete the target, they would need to spend five days working on it.

Losing half of their leisure time will naturally make these sneaky people unhappy.

"I don't know what the family is thinking. The shops are too busy. Not only are they not recruiting people, they also require us to work hard to refine the ore. They really treat us like cattle."

A young man curled his lips, not paying any attention to Manager Xue's mission. He casually patted the shoulder of a monk named He Ying next to him and said:
"My Qingyin Stone, I'll just trouble Brother He. I have something to do these two days and I have to take some time to deal with it."

After that, he turned around and left, walking out of the shop.

"It's bad, we won't have a comfortable life from now on, so we can only have half a day of leisure while being busy."

"Let's go, have a good time today, and then work hard next."

Some of the sneaky people greeted the others, and they all went to the restaurant to have some fun.

When they were on duty, they all went to the restaurant to have fun. It was obvious that these people were dissatisfied with Manager Xue's task arrangements and deliberately resisted by showing off their faces.

And as the sneaky people left.

In the blink of an eye, there were only five ore refiners left in the shop.

"Bah, what the hell, a bunch of dandies."

One of the monks with eagle-like eyes spat and said unhappily: "They basically don't work and talk a lot of nonsense."

"Three hundred pieces of Qingyin Stone, we are responsible for two hundred pieces, which is already the limit. It's just a dream to expect me to help them."

A middle-aged man next to him sighed, remained silent, and turned to follow the hunchbacked old man to refine the Qingyin Stone.

The two of them had long been accustomed to the situation in the shop, and their expressions didn't even change much.

"Old He, the Wang family's ore shop recently came to see me, saying that their shop will be built in two days and there is a vacancy of manpower. They want to bring me over."

"Do you want to come along?"

The young man named Guan Tao in the product looked at He Ying and asked.

"How's the salary?"

He Ying asked subconsciously.

"It's a little lower than here. It's a difference of 130 spiritual crystals in a year, but it's better because it's easy. I get my salary every ten days."

Guan Tao spoke without thinking.

"Go!" He Ying had originally intended to leave, but now that he had the opportunity, he agreed without hesitation.

"Zhang Hu, are you going?"

Guan Tao looked at a burly young man who had been silent and asked.

"My brother is still cultivating at the Lu family and can't go. He won't be able to leave until half a year later."

The burly young man looked moved, but in the end he sighed and reluctantly refused.

"Okay." Guan Tao did not force it, but turned to look at He Ying and said: "When the duty is over, I will take you to the Wang family's shop to have a look."

He Ying nodded lightly and immediately started fishing.

Having made up his mind to leave, he deliberately refused to work and did not tell Manager Xue that he was leaving because he wanted to take revenge on the store.

I was going to wait five or six days, when the store was about to deliver the goods, and then run away, which would make Manager Xue sick.

The hunchbacked old man and middle-aged man next to him remained silent and did not speak. They pretended not to hear and did not send a message to Manager Xue.

Their workload is already at its limit and they are not afraid of piling up any more.

Although Guanshi Xue is not a thing, he is not a complete fool.

He still knows some ore refining skills and will not pile up meaningless tasks, leading to business defaults.

Just when the monks in the Lu family's ore shop had their own opinions.

Jiang Qiong, who was staying in the Lu family, had already summoned the senior officials to discuss family affairs and started to make the second move.

Xie Lingfei's mission completed the first step.

Next, it was Jiang Qiong who should take action.
