According to Manager Hu's introduction.
In this mine, there were a dozen or so normal guards, all of whom were mortal martial artists.
Their role was only to maintain order among the miners.
There were many fights in the mine, so there was no choice but to control them.
There were three transcendent cultivators. There were originally four, but one left a while ago.
Jiang Wang had already figured it out before he came, and Manager Hu was worried about it. The conditions in the mine were harsh, and most transcendent cultivators were unwilling to come.
It wasn't easy to catch someone like him who volunteered himself, so there was no way he wouldn't take him in.
Of course, lowering the price was also a necessary process.
"One Dao Primordial Stone a month." Manager Hu said, and raised a finger. "How about it?"
In the room he was working in, there was a circular hole that was obviously just mended, and it was very crudely mended.
"Isn't it a bit too little?" Jiang Wang purposely put on a troubled expression.
"It's quite a bit." Caretaker Hu stopped smoking his pipe, and started to calculate for Jiang Wang, "The few old cultivators who were here earlier could only earn one and a half primordial stones every month. This Dao Primordial Stone is not a fixed sum. It's from the Junggenjia. Do you know the Junggenjia? The one from the Qi! Constable Hu is from the Junggenjia, that's his family! "
Jiang Wang purposely moved closer to the hole. "This hole isn't small. How did you do it? "
"It wasn't mended, uh, I'll get someone to do it later." Manager Hu avoided the topic, and gritted his teeth. "Like this, it's only one and a half a month, how about it?"
Jiang Wang laughed in his heart. This hole was clearly created by some kind of Dao technique, and it was probably the reason why a cultivator left the mine. Originally, the transcendent cultivators who were willing to come to this kind of mine were all here for the safety. Other than escorting the miners back to town once a month, there was nothing else to do.
Under normal circumstances, two Dao Roaming cultivators were enough to ensure the safety of the official road. After all, Yang Country's officials wouldn't allow too strong fierce beasts to approach the settlement.
If they had to fight every now and then, it wouldn't be something that could be stopped with just one and a half primal stones.
More than half a year ago, someone had barged in once and fought with the cultivators guarding here.
He did not manage to find out the specifics. But the strange thing was that nothing was lost at the Hu's mine.
Caretaker Hu did not want to talk about this hole. It was obvious that there was a problem.
Jiang Wang was well aware that Junggenjia would send ten Dao Origin Stones to this mine every month. According to Steward Hu's price, it was enough to hire six cultivators. Now that the Hu Clan's mine had only invited four Meridian Wandering Realm cultivators, most of the Dao Essence Stones had naturally been embezzled.
The heavens were high and the emperor was far away. This was a very common thing. It was not worth Jiang Wang exposing it now.
Jiang Wang pretended to hesitate for a moment before saying, "Okay."
"Alright then!" Manager Hu was very happy. He shouted to a sturdy young man outside the door, "Shuanzi, go and invite Master Ge over."
He smiled apologetically at Jiang Wang and said, "Master Ge is also a cultivator master. Let's try it out and go through the motions. Newcomers to the mine have to go through this process. Please forgive me. "
Jiang Wang smiled. "I understand."
"Master Ge" was a skinny old man. He wore a black short gown and a pair of cloth shoes. At first glance, he looked like an expert.
Probably because he was used to being flattered in the mine, his eyes were always looking up at the sky.
"This is the kid?" Master Ge glanced at Jiang Wang and asked Manager Hu.
In his opinion, he must be a small cultivator from some fallen sect. Because his cultivation method was crude and his strength was low, he could not survive outside. He could only come to a place like the mine to accumulate some Dao Essence Stones to assist his cultivation.
Although he could only muddle along in this kind of place … he, Master Ge, was old.
Alright, being old was not an advantage in the field of extraordinary beings. But he was experienced.
They were both weak. He, Master Ge, was weak but experienced. Then he was stronger than those who were weak but not experienced. He was weak to the point of being arrogant.
They were both extraordinary cultivators, but he insisted on passing the message through Manager Hu. He was very arrogant.
"It's me." Without waiting for Manager Hu to speak, Jiang Wang said directly, "Let's try it out, old man?"
Master Ge blew his beard and did not say much. His claw came down on Jiang Wang's head.
It was just a spar, but he was very ruthless. He always went for the vital points.
Jiang Wang forcefully controlled his body's instinctive reaction. That was why he did not end this person's life with one sword.
The two of them went back and forth, entangling with each other.
At least in Manager Hu's eyes, this spar was extremely exciting. Both sides fought back and forth, making crackling sounds. It was really unfathomable. It left a lasting aftertaste.
And in Master Ge's opinion, the younger generation was to be feared. Although this kid's cultivation method was crude, his foundation was still tough. He could actually hold on for so long.
If they continued fighting, he would be too tired. If his Dao Essence was used up too much, he would need to use Dao Essence Stones to replenish it. It was not worth it.
With this thought, Master Ge lightly brushed his hand, ending the spar.
He nodded at Manager Hu. "En, this kid is indeed at the Wandering Meridian realm. If we continue fighting, I will have to use my sect's secret arts. He is still young. It is not good to harm his foundation. "
Master Ge's words seemed magnanimous, but his raised eyebrows and glared at Jiang Wang. The meaning behind his words was "Why haven't you thanked me for not killing you?"
As a youngster who had just entered the extraordinary realm, Jiang Wang was also very tactful. He cooperated and asked, "May I ask what sect Master Ge comes from?"
"Sigh." Master Ge sighed deeply. "I originally did not want to mention my sect. That is a sad place for me. When I entered the Green Wood Immortal School, I was the same age as you. How high-spirited! Unfortunately … "
"Cough." Jiang Wang interrupted him somewhat embarrassedly. "The Green Wood Immortal School is?"
"You don't even know about the Green Wood Immortal School?" Master Ge looked at Jiang Wang very disdainfully. "Sigh, you are too young. You don't know anything. You should know about East King Valley, right? "
"I have heard of it. Could it be … "
"Yes!" Master Ge said grandly, "The Green Wood Immortal School is a subsidiary sect of East King Valley!"
Jiang Wang almost couldn't breathe.
As a renowned medical sect, the East King Valley was located near the State of Qi. When Chung Geng Sheng explained the surrounding forces to him, he also mentioned it in detail.
At that time, there seemed to be cultivators from East King Valley participating in the Heavenly Palace Mystic Realm.
This Green Wood Immortal School was so famous, and this person surnamed Ge was so arrogant. He thought that it was some amazing place! He was wondering why he hadn't heard Chung Geng Sheng mention it, but it turned out that it was just a subsidiary sect of East King Valley.
How to describe this level?
In analogy, it was equivalent to a Wangjiang City Dao Academy.
With Jiang Wang's current strength, apart from the dean of the Dao Academy and Lin Zhengren, he could basically sweep through them. He might even be able to fight Lin Zhengren, who had a soaring Dao meridian.
"Like thunder … piercing my ears," Jiang Wang said reluctantly.
"Everyone will live together for a long time in the future." Manager Hu said at the right time, "Master Dugu, can you arrange a residence for me? Although it's a little small, it's still a private residence. Is that okay? "
"Just a residence is enough. I'm not picky. Also, you're so old. Don't call me master. I can't stand it. Just call me A 'An. "Jiang Wang added with a smile," No matter what, you're from the same family as Constable Hu, aren't you? You're someone with status. "
"Hey! A 'An! I'll wait here for a while. " Manager Hu called out happily. Feeling that his status had been recognized, he ran out happily and personally changed Jiang Wang's bed.
Naturally, it was impossible to build a new residence for Jiang Wang. It just so happened that the previous cultivator left and left behind a small courtyard. He could live in it after a little tidying up.
He waited until Caretaker Hu was far away.
Master Ge said coldly, "Why are you being so polite to a mortal? How can I, a cultivator, be compared to this kind of mortal? "
Jiang Wang hated this kind of person who didn't have much strength but thought of himself as extraordinary and regarded everyone else as ants.
Originally, he just thought that this old man had no sense of propriety and liked to boast. More than that, he found him interesting. Now, he really did hate him.
However, he didn't show it on his face. He just casually found a chair and sat down.
