"Yes, Master, I'll go tell them right away." Ghost Face hopped around and turned around, then suddenly turned back, looking very shy, and said, "Master, how many pieces should I charge, and will you give me one?"

"Ten thousand yuan," Shang Xiye said without looking up.

"Ten thousand yuan!" Ghost Face exclaimed in shock, crying out, "They can dig up a hundred yuan's worth of food for each piece, but I have to dig up ten thousand yuan's worth for just one piece! Master, what have I done to offend you? Tell me, and I promise I'll change!"

"Since you're not satisfied, then let them dig out 100,000 pieces and you can eat one piece," Shang Xiye said again.

"Them! You mean they all dig up 10,000 pieces and I'll just eat one?" Ghost Face finally realized.

Shang Xiye remained silent.

But his face seemed to say, "What else can I do?"

Ghost Face quickly calculated in his mind that there were about two thousand mutated beasts and demonic beasts participating in mining in the mine. For every five spirit stones they dug, Ghost Face could eat one.

Once the spirit mine is fully revealed, given their digging speed, each beast can dig out five spirit stones in just a few breaths!

In other words, once he finishes eating one spirit stone, he can immediately eat the next one!

"Ten thousand! Ten thousand it is! Master, I love you so much, you are such a good master!" Ghost Face realized the benefits and his integrity was shattered.

Ji Fengyao: "..."

What a shameless jerk!

Thank goodness she's not a human girl, otherwise she would have jumped into the prince's arms and offered herself to him right now.

Perhaps sensing Ji Fengyao's slight mood, Ghost Face shamelessly said to Ji Fengyao, "My lady, Mianmian loves you too. When you have time, remember to make some spiritual liquid for Mianmian to eat!"

After saying that, it happily ran back into the mine to supervise the work.

Several black lines appeared on Ji Fengyao's forehead:

This husky!

They're treating her like a snack ATM!

Holy crap!

Next time, I'll mix a few packets of laxative powder into its elixir and let it have diarrhea for days and nights. Let's see if it still dares to boss its master around!

Wuying and Wuhen helped Xique and Bailu pack up the ingredients and tableware, then came over and volunteered, "Your Highness, it's still early. We're just idling around anyway, so let's go in and help dig for spirit stones."

"Didn't you say that ordinary shovels and hoes are useless? Are you going to go in and dig with your hands?" Ji Fengming teased, glancing sideways at him.

To everyone's surprise, Wuying nodded: "Ordinary ironware is useless, but we can infuse it with spiritual power to enhance it, which might be useful."

"If it's useful, it can not only mine spirit stones but also help you practice your skills, killing two birds with one stone," Wuhen added.

Ji Fengyao nodded in agreement: "This method is feasible, and the spiritual energy in the spirit mine is abundant, which can continuously replenish your consumption. If you mound while silently practicing the Spirit Gathering Technique, it will be even more beneficial to your cultivation."

"Your Highness, Your Highness, let's go too!" Xique and Bailu immediately said, their expressions excited and full of enthusiasm.

Seeing this, their bodyguards also volunteered one after another:

"I'll go too!"

"Your Highness, please grant permission!"

Shang Xiye thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "Then let's all go. We'll open up a side path from inside so as not to affect the progress of the mutated beasts and monsters."

"Yay!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

The two maids and the guards cheered in unison.

The little bandit was also extremely excited. In the past, her master doted on her and took her to do almost everything, except for mining spirit ore. Now she could finally make up for it!

For her, mining spirit ore was like picking up money; just thinking about it was so exciting!
