After Ning Zhishui left the alchemy meeting, he felt that he had shouldered another responsibility.
Although she doesn't have to take care of things normally, it's impossible for her not to do anything since she is in that position.
Let’s just watch it for now and talk about it after the Xiancao meeting.
However, it must be said that the identity of the president is still very beneficial for her business in Luoyu City.
Others don’t know that she is Ning Zhishui from the Xianlai Sect, but as long as they know that she is the President Ning of the Dan Association, they will not look down on her, and both Fengle Garden and Wuji Pavilion will have less trouble.
Especially now that she is still in the early stages of her settlement, these are particularly important. After she has passed this period of stability, Ning Zhishui can consider stepping down as president.
And now, she has one more thing to do in the city.
That evening, Ning Zhishui changed into a gray dress and went out. She specially asked Hua Jiaqing to drive the carriage to take her to the valley outside Luoyu City.
According to the memory of the last time he left, Ning Zhishui slowly approached the spiritual vein and saw the guard at the same location.
Relying on the transparent jade silk, Ning Zhishui successfully avoided their eyes and ears and quietly approached the spiritual vein.
At this time, it was already dark and the place seemed particularly quiet.
It is normal that it is quiet. The people here are either guarding outside or inside. In addition, there are mining workers inside. It is difficult to hear the movements inside without entering the mine.
Ning Zhishui had been to the Lingmai Mine in his previous life and knew their habits.
After picking for a whole day, the day's harvest will be brought to the manager at night, who will count and record it, then put it into a Qiankun bag and hand it over to the person who processes it.
The roughly mined ore, that is, the original crystal, is very gray and needs to be polished and cut to reveal its luster and be traded as a real crystal.
Then, the boss will inspect the house every once in a while, which may be ten days, half a month, or even a month.
Those who are more concerned will go to check and inspect it every two or three days.
The other steps are not important. Ning Zhishui is just waiting for the workers to take the ore away and deliver it to the manager!
The mining process is boring, hard, dusty, noisy and dirty.
Forget about the workers. It is impossible for the supervisor to be at their work all the time. At most, he will come over every few hours to remind the workers not to be lazy.
On the day of mining, Ning Zhishui specifically took note of the appearance of Zhang Su's servants, especially her confidants, as he had been waiting for this day.
After walking towards the expected location and wandering for a while, Ning Zhishui successfully found the cave entrance belonging to the Zhang family.
Ning Zhishui reached out and touched the transparent jade silk, knowing that time was running out.
She stepped into the cave carefully, and just as she stood firm, she saw a figure walking towards her.
She was so frightened that her heart almost stopped. She quickly stepped back and turned around to make way for the entrance.
Two workers came out pushing a cart of sand and gravel. They were covered in dust and looked extremely dirty.
The two men were shirtless, wearing only loose black shorts. They didn't have any Qiankun tools on them, so they couldn't even hide a crystal.
It is impossible to embezzle or take advantage of others.
The two men seemed to be very tired. They pushed the sand and gravel all the way. When they reached the slope in front of the mountain, they dumped the sand and gravel and pushed it back to the entrance.
No one spoke during the whole process, except for a big man who yawned.
Ning Zhishui followed behind him, keeping her body hidden and taking every step carefully to make sure not to make any noise.
She followed the two men into the cave at a close distance. After turning a corner, she saw several workers squatting there, chiseling the wall and knocking off ores of various sizes.
The ore itself is very hard, and they have to use not only strength but also spiritual energy when chiseling it, so they have to rest for a while every once in a while.
After the two men poured the sand and stones, they sat down to rest. One of them accidentally sat down on a stone and screamed in pain.
"Damn it, even the stones are against me!" the man cursed.
Others laughed mercilessly, "You are stupid, and you blame the stone!"
"Alright, we're all unlucky bastards, why are you laughing at me?" The man rolled his eyes. "Look at the old guys, they have such an easy job, unlike us who are working here in the dark."
The mine was very dark and the walls were uneven, so the stones used for lighting could not illuminate even the smallest detail, and some places were still in darkness.
So the work is very tiring for the eyes, and it takes a long time to go out. It is not wrong to say that you can't see the sun.
"Being chosen means that we are valued by the authorities. Don't look at the dirty stone, it is a crystal!" another person sighed.
"What's wrong with the crystals? None of them belong to us!"
"Okay, stop talking now. It will be troublesome if Manager Deng comes over."
"He won't come. He's staying comfortably in the shed, unlike us!"
There was a shed built on the mountain outside, where the people sent by each family rested, but when Ning Zhishui came, he didn't see any movement.
It was probably late at night and everyone was asleep, so they were resting or practicing inside.
"There's no point in complaining. Let's talk less and work more. We didn't dig out enough yesterday. Didn't we get scolded enough?"
"It's almost time. Bring all the crystals here. I'll give them to Manager Deng." said one of the dark and strong men.
After he finished speaking, everyone stood up and started pushing the ore scattered on the ground together.
Ning Zhishui took a look and saw that the ground was black and there were quite a lot of ores. It would take some time for them to push them together.
Her mind raced and she thought of something.
The area next to Zhang's seems to be Gu's?
Her eyes lit up, she looked at them, then tiptoed past them.
When she walked to a place where no one was paying attention, she reached out and picked up a crystal from the ground. After the crystal entered her hand, it became transparent and invisible.
Ning Zhishui walked forward and after a while, he saw the junction of the two areas, where two people were guarding it.
Their job is very boring. They have to wait for a whole day and become tired.
So at this time, the two of them were sitting there with their eyes closed, and it was not known whether they were resting or really asleep.
Suddenly there was a sound of something falling to the ground, which woke them both up.
As soon as Liu San opened his eyes, he saw a crystal stone rolling down from the wall and falling not far from the two of them.
"Huh?"
This crystal is so strong, how could it fall off by itself?
He was puzzled, but he acted very honestly and stood up to pick it up.
But who knew that for some reason the crystal stone started rolling on the ground, rolled two steps and slowly stopped, then continued rolling.
