Chapter 1 One day at the new mine
"So, that guy was not caught in the end..." After receiving the news, Zhao Hong said regretfully.
"Who said no? It seems that the place where the Xueyu Immortal Palace and the mountain gate are located has been idle for too long. It is obviously an existence like the central imperial capital of our Xueyu Tianling, and there are tens of thousands of Taoist people. But they can't even catch a demon bandit. This is really... It seems that the fellow disciples of the Discipline Academy should be more alert." Taoist Ruiming, who was sitting opposite Zhao Hong and brought the news, also agreed.
"Do you think they are not alert? Senior Brother Xuanyang was almost angry. Anyone who dared not do their best?" Zhao Hong smiled and shook his head: "This time I came back, they had already set up a guard post. Whether they entered the range of Xueyu Immortal Palace or went out, they had to check it carefully before they could pass. Several moving magic arrays were the top priority."
"Tsk, it's been three months, so how dare the scum stay in the Xueyutian Ridge? No way, even Biluo Beizhou has emerged at this moment. How to find a huge place in the Xuanyuan World? What's the use of strictly checking them?" After hearing Zhao Hong say this, Taoist Ruiming seemed very disdainful.
"You don't know this." Zhao Hong said: "It's not too late to make up for the siege. I heard from fellow students of the Precepts Academy. This time they seem to be serious and use these sentries as regular examples. They must check in and out in the future, and they will not stop for twelve hours a day. They are not just busy for this period of time."
"Hey? Isn't that very troublesome?" Taoist Ruiming was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Look at you, if you don't care, you laugh at others for not caring about things, and if they take care of things, you will find it troublesome. What do you want?"
"Uncle Master, look at what you said..." Taoist Ruiming smiled awkwardly, and then asked, "But in that case, is there enough manpower? Although there are many disciples in the Precepts Academy, there are so many disciples in the Xueyu Tianling. The disciples of the Precepts Academy scattered in various other courtyards are much more than those gathered in the Xueyu Immortal Palace. The staff at the mountain gate may not be enough - and they are still working twelve hours a day. So where is there time to practice?"
"You said you understand." Zhao Hong laughed: "The people below asked Senior Brother Xuanyang this way at that time. However, Senior Brother Xuanyang is a well-established person. It is natural that he would have no problem asking him to recite the rules of Xueyu Tianling backwards. It would be a difficult task for him to solve this problem."
"How was this matter solved in the end?" After hearing Zhao Hong say this, Taoist Ruiming became interested. Besides, this time it was a rest time. One or two of the fellow disciples who had just finished working in the mining area also heard Zhao Hong and the other two talk. Unconsciously, they surrounded him. Seeing Zhao Hong say half of the words and half, they all felt uncomfortable. They all spoke and urged:
"Uncle Master, tell me quickly, what's going on?"
After urging this way, Zhao Hong still held it and pinched it. After laughing, he asked, "So, my fellow disciples, I won't tell the answer to this riddle for now. You think about it yourself, what should I do if I encounter this situation?"
All the fellow disciples thought for a while, but they still didn't have the patience. After a while, they continued to beg Zhao Hong to continue. However, Taoist Ruiming thought carefully and then replied:
"Is it... it's like we are mining and managing industries. Subsidies are issued?"
"You guessed it right, but it's just one of them." Zhao Hong thought for a moment. The lunch break was almost here. If you delayed it, it would be bad to delay the working hours. Then he said:
"Later, when I heard about this, I went to discuss with Senior Brother Xuanyang. It is indeed a good thing to strengthen the vigilance near Xueyu Immortal Palace. The only problem is that the precepts institute are not enough staff. So as long as this problem is solved, isn't there any problem?
It's not easy to need a manpower? There are only so many disciples in the Precepts Academy, but the disciples in other other academies are dozens of times that of the disciples in the Precepts Academy. And guarding the mountain gates everywhere and checking past fellow disciples and fellow disciples in other mountain gates is not a difficult task. Even those errand disciples can do it well.
So, I gave Senior Brother Xuanyang an idea to hire some errands who have free time, divided into three classes, each class for four hours. They will take care of the cloud roads and the movement arrays that go in and out of Xueyu Tianling, and check the past fellow disciples and other mountain gates. If something really happens, they don’t have to take it. Just send an alarm and wait for the disciples of the Precepts Academy to deal with it."
After hearing Zhao Hong say this, all the fellow disciples nodded and suddenly realized: "Oh." In fact, this answer is not unexpected. Even one or two of the fellow disciples thought of this matter-but they subconsciously thought that this answer was wrong... because...
"But in this way, using mail disciples to do the work of disciples in the precepts academy. Isn't this... a bit unconventional?" Zhao Hong was still beside him, and the Taoist Ruiming, who was most familiar to him, asked the answer. Hearing that he said, the mail disciples gathered at the outermost and were resting, were also energetic, and one of them looked at them.
"I didn't say that they were disciples of the Precepts Academy. They just accepted the tasks assigned by the Precepts Academy." Zhao Hong explained. However, after hearing his explanation, the fellow disciples were obviously not satisfied. Zhao Hong also knew that what they really care about was their identity and status. As direct disciples, inner disciples, or even outer disciples, they had to undergo examinations and interrogations from the servant disciples. This made them feel a little unacceptable in their hearts.
"Okay, this is also for the safety of the mountain gate. What's wrong with the errand disciples? The errand disciples are also part of the mountain gate and are also disciples of Xueyu Tianling. What's wrong with you? Do you dare to look down on them?"
Speaking of this, Zhao Hong's tone suddenly increased by eighth. All his classmates worked with him for three months, and knew that this little ancestor was a people-oriented one. He usually said this: "Under the same generation, the treatment can be different, but the status must be equal." One or two immediately spoke and dared not.
This is also in line with what Taoist Xuanxin said before: The disciples of Xueyu Tianling are united. They do not take into account this status and status too high, so there is no big rebound. Otherwise, if they change places, they will be like other traditional famous sects in Biluobeizhou. If they look at the superiors and inferiors more important than anything else, they will not pass this proposal even if they are beaten to death.
Then, Taoist Ruiming asked: "Uncle Master, we fellow disciples are fine. After all, we all have the same meaning as fellow disciples. We won't say much. But those fellow disciples from other mountain gates watched us Xueyu Tianling send errand disciples to take care of the cloud roads and the movement arrays everywhere. Will we be dissatisfied with us?"
"This question is good." Zhao Hong pointed at Taoist Ruiming with a finger, and then said, "After all, we cannot force other mountain gates to agree with our ideas, right? Fortunately, there are not many colleagues entering and leaving Xueyu Immortal Palace every day. So some outer disciples are allocated to open inspection levels to deal with other channels, so that's all."
After hearing Zhao Hong's explanation, all the fellow disciples nodded repeatedly. They were convinced. They solved their doubts, gained knowledge, and obtained first-hand information about the mountain gate. Both of them were satisfied.
Zhao Hong also gained face in front of these zodiacs. He also realized that it was quite good. Speaking of which, although this time it was vained by his senior brother, Taoist Xuanyang. However, after all, this was the first time that he had done something that affected the entire Xueyu Tianling Mountain Gate. It must be fake to say that he didn't care in his heart.
All the people who said this were satisfied. Look at the time, the lunch break was over, and it was time to start work again. One or two of these fellow disciples were very conscious and could not use Zhao Hong to urge them. So they all started to move, urged the iron clawed mole and other spirit beasts to walk towards the mine. In this way, about one-third of the ordinary day passed. As the supervisor of this mine, Zhao Hong also went down the mine with these fellow disciples and conducted routine inspections.
Because of the different quality and quantity of ore, this time, this new mine is not as shabby as before, with only a mere 300 miners. At this moment, the entire mine, including the mail disciples who are carrying out various tasks, has more than 5,000 disciples of all kinds. It is not so much a mine, but rather an emerging industrial and mining town.
And Zhao Hong is the chief official of this town.
During these three months, batches of various materials were transported, including stone, wood and building materials. Zhao Hong led these fellow disciples to build such a small town in the originally empty ice and snowy land according to the standards of a courtyard in Xueyutianling.
In three months, there were large residential areas, courtyards, small gardens, forest land... public workshops, dan houses, moving magic arrays, and mountain guard formations. Such a small town has already grown in scale. The reason why it has such a fast construction speed is thanks to Zhao Hongxin's sectional construction method and the classic reward and punishment measures in Xueyu Tianling. Otherwise, if it was changed to another sect, it would definitely not be able to do it.
"Is this the beginning of career?"
He went down the mine along the stairs. Looking at the enthusiastic work of fellow students, Zhao Hong thought so in his mind. He came to inspect, not to see if these fellow students worked hard. The mine veins in Xueyu Tianling have rewards and punishments. After meeting a certain standard, the more ores mined can be calculated as jade coins at one-twentieth of the price and distributed to fellow students in mining. Such a powerful way to exploit labor workers is used to old in another world. However, it is very fresh in this world of fairy tales. One or two of the fellow students think that life is promising, which one does not work hard?
