Chapter 253: Eavesdropping on Gossip Using a Low-grade Spiritual Tool
The reason why Chen Mo wanted to extend the exploration range three times was because according to Qi Jingsu's calculations, normal exploration could yield about 200 contributions.
And 200 contributions converted into elixirs can only advance one-third of the progress bar, so he wants to make up the remaining two-thirds.
Of course, according to Qi Jingsu's calculation, 200 out of 50 are no-liability basic salary. In fact, three times it should not reach 600. But even if there are some gaps left, there is still some time after returning to the martial arts academy, and he should be able to find a way to fill them and get the next innate talent before screening for places on the academy team.
This requires Luo Yiwen's cooperation.
The two quickly reached an agreement because their interests were aligned.
For a middle-aged man like Luo Yiwen, who is nearly 40 years old, if he doesn't take another chance now, he will only be able to rely on luck when he thinks about it later.
He was a good guy before, not because he liked being suppressed, but because there was no possibility of turning the situation around.
Now, his mind was working.
He decided to fully cooperate with this young man named Chen Mo.
Sometimes, accepting your fate does not mean giving in, but rather enduring and lying dormant.
If the opportunity doesn't come, then you have to play it safe and maintain a lower limit, but if you have ambitions, you must grab it once it arises.
Now, he found that the opportunity had arrived.
A fourth-level disciple from a top martial arts academy appeared in front of him like a hero stepping on auspicious clouds.
This guy is so outrageous that he can kill dozens of ferocious beasts with just one sword. In his previous cooperation with the Martial Academy, he has never seen such a fierce man.
So, Luo Yiwen made a very reasonable decision. He chose to lie on Chen Mo's shoulder, listening to his endless questions without crying or making a fuss.
Many times, as long as the leader does not hold back, it is already the greatest help. He is very clear about this matter.
"call--"
Chen Mo took a deep breath, put Luo Yiwen down and asked, "Manager Luo, where are we now?"
"This is the third stake point. We have reached the end. We originally planned to mine all the way here in the next seven days."
"Okay, let's call it a day. We'll clean up the surrounding area tomorrow."
Chen Mo said, "Please arrange some manpower. We can't just kill the beasts without mining."
Luo Yiwen is of course more professional: "Don't worry, I will arrange for them. If it doesn't work, I will also assign some people from the guard team to mine."
Chen Moxi said happily: "Okay, okay, otherwise why would I let you become the project manager? Knowing people and making good use of them."
As long as he can increase profits, he will be satisfied.
When Chen Mo and the other two returned to the first mining point while slamming bricks, they saw everyone in silence.
It was obvious that they knew what had happened in the woods, but they didn't know the details.
"Manager Luo, are you guys okay?" Dog brother stepped forward and asked.
Chen Mo jumped out and asked, "Do you think we are in trouble? Did you see the note I left for you? Did you drag the wild boar back? Is it almost done?"
Dog brother laughed dryly: "Alright, it has been dragged back for processing. We can eat it later when we get back. Um, what is our situation now?"
Chen Mo turned around and slammed a brick at Huang Cui, then turned back and said, "What's going on? You should ask Manager Luo, why are you asking me?"
Didn't you take the initiative to ask? !
However, Dog Brother did not dare to say more. After all, he knew that those ferocious beasts could not have been killed by Luo Yiwen, unless he was a sweeping monk who had been hiding in the company for many years.
But to be honest, if that were true, one couldn't have silently endured the oppression for so long without fighting back.
After returning to the camp, that night, the people in Luo Yiwen's group were a little timid when talking to Chen Mo.
After all, he seemed very strange, and he would break rocks on his chest whenever he had something to do, so everyone was on guard. Now, when they learned from Luo Yiwen that this person had almost single-handedly cleared all the beasts within the expected range, they dared not disturb him rashly.
Therefore, it became very convenient for Chen Mo to find anyone in the camp to show his brick-throwing skills or ask a bunch of inexplicable questions, because others did not dare to resist, which made him very satisfied.
To be honest, after a big meal of wild boar meat, it wasn't as delicious as I had imagined. The main reason was that the conditions in the camp were limited and we couldn't afford to indulge in it.
After dinner, Chen Mo took a walk with Huang Cui while clapping his hands, but he felt that there was something fishy going on in the gathering place of the project team next door. They were talking, but when they saw someone coming, they shut up or changed the subject abruptly, just like Hu Mingxuan refreshing the desktop in front of the computer.
"Wait for me over there first. I'll go find out."
After saying that, Chen Mo retreated behind the bushes nearby and poured his true energy into the hidden soft armor. In an instant, most of his aura disappeared.
Perhaps the person who created this spiritual weapon could not have imagined that someone would use it for the purpose of gossip.
Chen Mo moved closer, but because the forest was dark, he was not discovered at all.
The group of people just now had already entered the tent and were plotting loudly inside.
I only heard a familiar voice saying:
"Hush, who else knows?"
This is the voice of Deng Bin, the security chief. The people with him should all be his confidants.
"No one knows, they only know that Lao Li took the wrong road and lost half of his hand." said another voice.
"Fuck, where is Lao Li?" asked the third voice.
"Shhh - sent him back. He encountered a fourth-level vicious beast. Master Chen said that there might be a large mineral vein over there, and the vicious beast is guarding it."
"Are you going to open it this time?"
"We can't open it because we don't have enough people. Manager Xu said we can't discuss it anymore. Next time we will prepare in advance and bring more people to open it."
What remains is just some imagination, probably about what I will do after I become rich.
Chen Mo left the vicinity because the time to hide in the soft armor had come.
After he returned, he pulled Huang Cui to the corner of his project team and found Luo Yiwen.
"Manager Luo, I want to ask you something. If we discover a very valuable spiritual silk vein, what should we do?"
Luo Yiwen thought he was just asking questions for fun, as usual, so he didn't think much about it: "Is it worth a lot? Then we must discuss the mining matters with the other two managers."
"If we conceal the facts and mine secretly, won't it only be counted as our performance?"
"Well, that's not very fair, right?" Luo Yiwen said, "Besides, we may not be able to mine all of it by ourselves."
Chen Mo continued to ask: "Then we should keep it secret and not report it, but bring more people to collect it when we return?"
".That's just plain dishonest." Luo Yiwen said with a smile, "When you're out, it's better to be friendly and make money. If you do something secretly, others will definitely be dissatisfied if they know about it, and they might even try to trip you up."
Chen Mo chuckled: "I just took a casual walk and heard some interesting news."
He leaned close to Luo Yiwen's ear and repeated the news he had just heard.
Manager Luo's eyes widened: "Really?"
Chen Mo said: "Don't cheat anyone, young or old."
Luo Yiwen's eyes flickered, and after hesitating for a long time, he said, "Brother Chen, we are going to get rich now."
Chen Mo narrowed his eyes: "Hey, Manager Luo, isn't it said that harmony brings wealth?"
The other party rubbed his hands and said, "Since he played tricks first, we can't be blamed."
