Longevity starts with learning

Li Ji Minerals.

In the backyard, Chu Mu followed a middle-aged man with a mustache, following closely.

"The backyard is relatively large. The row near the front shop is residential. According to convention, our business partners all live here, one room each, but there is no spiritual energy supply."

"But the rooms are all equipped with micro partitions, which can isolate spiritual consciousness and sound, and the privacy is not bad."

"Behind this is the place for daily duties, mainly the smelting of various minerals."

"Your task is to smelt spiritual minerals, and the money is calculated by kilograms. If you refine ten kilograms of spiritual minerals, you will get a broken spirit, and if you refine one hundred kilograms, you will get a spiritual stone, and there is no upper limit."

"The refining of spiritual minerals is very simple, it is nothing more than expelling impurities and preserving Just keep the essence."

"You can go around the warehouse for a few days, see more and learn more."

"As for other benefits, our company's clerks will have a meal of spiritual rice at the end of each month and can rest for a day."

"In addition, at the end of each year, there will be a reward. The rewards are varied. It depends on the mood of the shopkeeper. Generally, they are not bad, which is equivalent to your monthly salary..."

"Our company is like this. If you are willing, go to the front hall and sign the contract. You can start working today..."

Chu Mu silently looked at the yard in front of him. It is called a yard, but it is actually a large factory.

The front row is the shop facing the street. Behind the shop is the house where the clerks live. After that, there is a large warehouse with a three-year wall and a transparent wall.

Standing at the door of this warehouse, the view inside the warehouse is also unobstructed.

Various minerals are piled up in different categories, and cultivators in different clothes are busy in it. It looks no different from the small factory in the previous life.

However, there is a partition at the back of the warehouse, and it seems that there is still space inside.

"Okay, I will go to the front to sign the contract."

Chu Mu did not hesitate too much. Outside the Jade Emperor Valley, it is a disorderly place, but inside the Jade Emperor Valley, the rules are extremely strict!

"Okay, you go to sign the contract first, and I will take you around our business later to familiarize yourself with the situation."

"Thank you for your trouble, manager."

Chu Mu bowed his hands, dealt with a few words, and went to the front hall.

Then, a contract was placed in front of Chu Mu.

The contract was like paper, dark yellow in color, only one palm long and three fingers wide, with only a few lines of words on it, similar to the contract in the previous life, but without so many rules and regulations.

The general idea is how much the monthly salary is, what the job responsibilities are, and then a series of prohibitions, such as prohibiting damage to the interests of the business during employment, prohibiting the disclosure of business secrets...

There are prohibitions throughout the text, but there is no punishment at all.

Chu Mu seemed to be puzzled and looked at the young man in front of him. He seemed to be the son of the shop owner...

"This is the soul contract. After signing, it is bound to the soul. If it is violated, it will be backfired by the contract!"

"Below the foundation building stage, the soul will be severely damaged at the least, and the soul will be scattered at the worst!"

Chu Mu's heart trembled, and his eyes fell on the contract again, considering every word.

It is very fair. Except for a few restrictions due to confidentiality, the others are only restrictions during the period of employment. Once you leave, these restrictions are equivalent to nothing.

Seeing Chu Mu like this, the man was obviously accustomed to it and said lightly:

"Don't worry, the soul contract acts on the soul, right or wrong, you can feel it yourself."

Chu Mu tentatively released his consciousness and felt the touch. As the man said, the terms of the soul contract were clearly revealed.

There are no loopholes, and there are no loopholes. The soul contract that exploits loopholes cannot be established.

The premonition in the dark is very clear.

Chu Mu's mind moved, and there was a faint flicker on the soul contract, and the two words Chu Mu suddenly appeared on it.

The man said with a smile: "Okay, since you have signed the contract, you are our Li Ji Trading Company's people. Work hard and we will not treat you unfairly."

Chu Mu nodded, dealt with it for a few words, and said nothing more.

Who can't draw a pancake?

Just listen to it, if you really believe it, you are a fool, not to mention that this is still the world of cultivation...

From the front hall to the backyard, the manager is obviously still waiting. Chu Mu stepped forward and followed the manager to wander around in this Li Ji Mining Materials.

Chu Mu observed this place where he would probably live for a long time in the future very carefully.

The business of the trading company is very clear, it is nothing more than processing crude ore and selling processed ore.

As for the processing and smelting of ore, it is also different from the secular steel furnace ironmaking, but uses the consciousness and magic power of the cultivator to artificially remove the impurities of the crude ore.

Although the efficiency is not high, the quality of the ore processed by the magic power of the divine consciousness is obviously very good.

The organizational structure of the business is also very clear.

The shopkeeper at the top is named Wuhan. He seems to be a cultivator who has completed the practice of Qi. He has been practicing in seclusion for many years and has disappeared.

Then there is the shopkeeper's own son, named Wu An, who is mainly responsible for the operation of the front hall shop.

Then there is the Wu Guanshi who leads him. He is Wuhan's younger brother and is responsible for the ore processing and smelting in the warehouse.

Then, there are these working guys.

Including Chu Mu himself, there are only eight people who really do the work.

The reason why the shopkeeper's surname is Wu and the business is named Li Ji Business is just because the shopkeeper is said to be a disciple of a certain Li surnamed foundation master in the market, so it is named Li Ji Minerals.

Wandering around for a long time until it was getting dark, under the monthly salary mechanism of calculating wages according to work, several people could still be seen busy in the warehouse, and some returned to their rooms early, obviously intending to practice.

After separating from the martial arts manager, Chu Mu went directly back to the room assigned to him.

The room was not big, no different from his bedroom in the secular world, but just a room.

Chu Mu tentatively touched the wall and wooden door with his spiritual sense, and a faint sense of obstruction suddenly surged into his heart.

Obviously, what the martial arts manager said was true, this seemingly ordinary room did have restrictions.

It was just unknown whether the "spiritual energy supply" he mentioned was as he guessed.

After closing the door, Chu Mu was still preparing to find an oil seal, but as soon as the door was closed, it was slightly dark, and a glass lamp on the table automatically lit up.

The light was soft and extremely bright, and the whole room was visible at a glance.

Chu Mu was slightly startled, and then he went forward to pick up the glass lamp, and after studying it for a while, he probably understood something.

It should be a creation similar to those lamps in the market. The source of the light is a round stone. Although the lamp base is glass, faint patterns can be clearly seen in it, which is obviously similar to some kind of sensing mechanism... or runes.

Chu Mu also became interested. Since it can be placed in his room, it is obviously not a precious thing. Under the "spiritual light blessing", his consciousness focused and immediately analyzed the patterns in it.

The patterns seem simple, but they are actually quite complicated, and even a little unclear.

After studying and pondering, clues gathered bit by bit, and Chu Mu's eyes became brighter and brighter.

He didn't understand runes, and he had never touched them before, but he could sense spiritual energy!

He could still follow the clues.

Under the induction of his consciousness, he could clearly sense that there were extremely subtle spiritual fluctuations emerging in this lamp.

Following the clues, he quickly locked onto one of the runes.

A faint fluctuation of spiritual energy appeared from this rune.

"Is it absorbing the free spiritual energy between heaven and earth?"

Chu Mu frowned, carefully sensing the fluctuation of spiritual energy. Under the focus of his spiritual consciousness, one by one, the spiritual energy points seemed to converge towards this rune. Indistinctly, he seemed to be able to feel the power of this rune to absorb spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy was absorbed into the rune, and as the rune flickered and the lines flowed, the final destination was the glowing stone in the lamp.

"So, the function of this rune is to absorb the free spiritual energy between heaven and earth and replenish energy for this glowing stone."

"Then... there should be another rune that senses light and darkness, as an automatic control switch..."

Chu Mu muttered to himself, and his spiritual consciousness was also scanning this lamp bit by bit.

But no matter how he observed, he never found the existence of the other rune he guessed.

"It shouldn't be..."

Chu Mu was full of doubts. No matter how magical it is, it must abide by normal principles, right?

Since there is a rune that replenishes energy, there must be a control switch that senses light.

Otherwise, how can the lamp be controlled?

"Hidden so deep?"

After observing for a long time, Chu Mu almost couldn't help but swear!

The rune he guessed does exist.

But it is hidden in the center of this round glowing stone!

Chu Mu opened the door, and under the sunset sunlight, the lamp went out instantly. When he closed the door, the lamp was instantly bright again in the dimness.

And in the perception of the soul, the rune did not detect any movement.

Chu Mu observed carefully, and the divine sense that could detect the slightest was inexplicably showing multiple phantoms!

"Are there anti-peeping measures?"

Chu Mu frowned and observed again in disbelief, but the result was the same.

It was the same when observed with the naked eye. It was okay to take a rough look, but once you focus and look carefully, it is full of phantoms and you can't see anything clearly!

Chu Mu even felt that the means of creating illusions might be connected to the two runes of this lamp. Once it is forcibly suppressed, the runes will be destroyed and the lamp will be destroyed.

"Such a small means is guarded against..."

Chu Mu shook his head. He suddenly felt that the puppet inheritance in his mind was probably more precious than he imagined!

After all, this small lamp in front of him, but only two runes, he, a newbie, can analyze it roughly, and the technical content is definitely not high.

But in the Yuhuang Valley market, every street, the lamp is indispensable, and every cultivator's home is also indispensable for this kind of lamp...

Behind this seemingly inconspicuous lamp, there is also a huge market...

Such inconspicuous two runes have such huge wealth value.

It can be seen that in the world of cultivation, the importance of technical knowledge.

It can also be seen how important the basic inheritance of puppetry in his mind is, and how terrifying its wealth value is!
