"If it's a good jade full of spiritual energy, it's understandable that the inspection is so strict, but is it the same for waste jade?" Lin Yi's heart was moved.
The bitter senior nodded, "It's the same. Whether it's a good jade or a waste jade, the process is the same. Only before it enters the warehouse, there will be specialized personnel to distinguish the quality, sort out the good jade and waste jade, and record the corresponding quantity as the basis for future payment."
This … this is a bit tricky!
According to Lin Yi's original idea, stealing a few pieces of waste jade should be a simple matter, but in this way, even if he only stole a piece of waste jade, it was very likely to be discovered.
After all, once the spirit jade was dug out, the guards would come over on the spot to weigh it and record the data. At the end, when the work was handed over, it had to be weighed again. If the number of spirit jades collected every day was not much, even if he only secretly hid a piece, there would be a big discrepancy between the two numbers!
Or could he hide the spirit jade in the space of the jade pendant the moment he dug it out, and then pretend that he didn't dig it out?
This idea naturally came to Lin Yi, but after quietly looking back to observe the two guards, he quickly gave up the idea.
There was no other reason other than the fact that there weren't many people who came here to collect jade, and the two guards were bored to death. They'd look over at Lin Yi from time to time, and there was a huge difference between when the jade was dug up and when the jade wasn't dug up, and the process wasn't long either. Lin Yi might not even have the time to dig up the jade, and the two guards would already be behind him, waiting to weigh the jade. There was no way he could escape their surveillance.
But in this way. If he couldn't make a move before the spirit jade was weighed by the guards, then it would be even more impossible after that. For a time. He even felt that he'd made a mistake coming here. If he couldn't think of a surefire way to steal the hidden jade, then the next three months would be a complete waste of time. It would be a waste of practice time.
While thinking of various possible methods, he continued to mine. However, Lin Yi's luck was really good today. In just a short time, he dug out another piece of spirit jade.
"It seems that this junior's luck is not bad! Although the weight felt much lighter than ordinary good jade. However, it's still a bit heavier than the first piece. It can be seen that even if it's a waste jade, it's still a good piece of waste jade! "The guard who came over to weigh the jade sighed with a smile.
Originally, according to the rules of Spirit Jade Hall, guards were not allowed to chat with outsiders under normal circumstances. However, the work in the tenth mining area was really boring. Even if they casually chatted to relieve boredom, their colleagues would only turn a blind eye to it.
"The weight of good jade will be heavier?" Hearing the guard's words, Ye Zichen nodded. An idea suddenly flashed in Lin Yi's mind. He turned his head and asked the bitter Senior Brother.
"That's right, Junior Brother Lin, don't you know that even if they are the same size, a good jade full of Spiritual Qi will be much heavier than a waste jade with thin Spiritual Qi!" The bitter Senior Brother nodded.
"I see." Lin Yi breathed out in relief. If that was the case, then … If this was the case, even in the face of the strict supervision process of Spirit Jade Hall, there might be loopholes to exploit.
"Bitter Senior Brother, I have a basic understanding of the situation here. You don't have to continue to follow me and waste time here. You'd better go and do your own things." Lin Yi turned his head and said to the bitter Senior Brother.
"This … Alright. Then I'll go first. "The bitter Senior Brother nodded. He specifically came over today because he was afraid that Lin Yi would suffer a loss, but now things had come to this. It was not a solution to continue to waste time here. It was better to go back and think of ways to see how to help Lin Yi.
Watching the bitter Senior Brother leave, the idea in Lin Yi's mind had gradually taken shape at this moment, and the most crucial point was the weight of the spirit jade. The spirit jade full of Spiritual Qi was heavy, and the spirit jade with thin Spiritual Qi was light. This was the key point that Lin Yi was going to use to make a fuss.
Although the two guards would look at this side from time to time, they did not always pay attention to the situation here. According to Lin Yi's idea, he could pick up the weighed waste jade from the basket beside him when the guards were not paying attention and put it into his jade pendant space. After charging it, he could quietly put it back. In this way, if there were a few more pieces, the extra weight after charging should be enough to equal a piece of spirit jade. At that time, even if he secretly hid a piece, there would not be much difference in the weight after handing it over to the workers. In this way, he could get away with it.
After thinking about it, the only loophole in this idea was that when the quality was finally divided in the reservoir area, there would be a lot of good jade among the spirit jades that Lin Yi handed over. This would not be a problem in other high-quality mining areas, but in this dead mining area no. 10, it was a bit conspicuous.
But then again, this was not a big problem. No matter how conspicuous it was, people would at most say that Lin Yi was lucky, and absolutely no one would think that Lin Yi had secretly charged the waste jade into good jade and put it back. After all, in the logic of normal people, handing over their own good jade as mined jade was simply crazy!
If the good jade was not mined on the spot, but originally had, then what was the point of handing it over? He could just keep it for himself! Why did he have to count it as the result of mining and expect a reward of 100 yuan for 1 piece? His brain must have been kicked by a donkey! Moreover, entering and exiting the mining area required a body search. Even if Lin Yi wanted to bring the spirit jades in, it was impossible!
After the plan was decided, Lin Yi immediately put it into action. After digging continuously for four hours without rest, in his basket, other than those that looked like waste jade at a glance, there were already 18 pieces of the "appearance of waste spirit jades" in various sizes. This might not be considered much in other high-yield mining areas, but this was the dead mining area no. 10. To have such a result was quite good, even the guards who came to weigh it were amazed.
Of course, according to the usual behavior of the 10th mining area, although these 18 pieces of spirit jades looked impressive, in fact, they should be 100% waste jade, so there was no need to be envious of them.
It seemed that Lin Yi had been mining, but in the process of working, he secretly used the space in the jade pendant to store the eight pieces of waste spirit jades that looked like spirit jades in the basket!
Because the spirit jades were taken out from the middle of the basket, they still looked the same, without much change, and the guards from afar could not see anything strange if they did not look carefully.
