Unsurpassed Spirits

Chapter 20 Swallow skin

"In addition, you used five pieces of basalt today, and the melt you extracted is at most the content of one piece of basalt. I will record the waste for you and deduct it from your wages."

With that said, Yan Chao actually took out a jade slip and burned it.

Luo Qingli was dumbfounded, "Are you going to deduct wages?"

"What else?" Yan Chao glanced over and snorted coldly: "You worked in my shop and damaged the things in the shop. Do you want to compensate?"

"..." Luo Qingli was speechless.

He is the boss, of course he has the final say.

Now she finally understood why Boss Yan couldn't recruit anyone even though the notice had been posted in the Director's Hall for so long and the conditions were so favorable.

It’s really... too stingy!

Maybe later on, not only won’t you get your wages, but you’ll also have to pay for the spiritual stone for nothing!

Yan Chao led Luo Qing to the backyard and gave her a room near the kitchen. He crossed his arms and asked her, "What's your name?"

"Luo Qingli."

"Can you cook?"

She shook her head, "Not really."

On the road before, she either ate wild fruits or grilled the rabbits and fish she had hunted on the fire. It was enough to satisfy her hunger, but the taste was not delicious.

"I can learn." Luo Qingli said.

Yan Chao nodded, "Okay, I'll leave you three meals a day from now on."

Luo Qingli looked at him again, hesitated and asked: "Boss Yan, shouldn't you be abstinent?"

When the monks reach the foundation building stage, they can practice fasting and will not feel hungry even if they no longer eat.

Yan Chao frowned tightly, "Who stipulates that you can't eat after eating grains?"

Luo Qingli thought about it and found that there was indeed no such statement. However, the higher the monk's cultivation level, the less and less he wanted to eat, and gradually he would not want to eat anymore.

Maybe Yan Chao is better at this.

Luo Qingli looked at his room. It was not big, but it was clean and tidy. There was also a formation outside the room, which could isolate the room from the detection of spiritual consciousness and protect privacy to a certain extent.

Yan Chao stood at the door and threw a jade slip to her, "After you pack it up, come to the front. Now that you're at work, don't be lazy. This jade slip contains some commonly used minerals. Learn it by heart as soon as possible."

He turned around, not knowing what he was thinking, and turned back and sneered: "Also, I don't care why you dress up as a man, but don't be so nondescript. People who don't know may think I have some pretty boy!"

Luo Qingli looked down at his outfit again, a little confused as to what was wrong with it.

She originally dressed up as a man just to make it easier to walk outside, but she didn't change back into women's clothes immediately after entering the city.However, the boss will spend a lot of time with his employees in the future, and everyone knows it. It is not necessarily bad for someone like Yan Chao to reveal that she is a woman.

As long as Boss Yan doesn’t have any special hobbies...

Luo Qingli doesn't want to think too complicatedly. She also wants to control her own destiny, but she is too weak. She is so weak that others can crush her to death with just one hand...

Luo Qingli tidied up the room, changed into short brown clothes, wrapped a square scarf around her hair, and went to the front hall. "Boss Yan, is there anything you want me to do?"

Yan Chao threw her a large piece of pig iron and a hammer, "This is pig iron. After it is burned until it is completely red, it can be hammered and forged repeatedly to remove the impurities inside. You will do this today."

This is purely physical work.

Luo Qingli breathed a sigh of relief. If Yan Chao wanted her to extract the essence of some spiritual mine, her consciousness would be a little unbearable.

Luo Qingli put the pig iron into the stove, and when it was red-hot, he picked up the hammer and started hammering.

The sonorous sounds in the front hall were intermittent. Yan Chao paid some attention to observe. Luo Qingli was hammering awkwardly with a hammer. One look at her appearance showed that she was a novice.

It doesn't matter if Yan Chao is a newbie or not. Anyway, what he wants to hire is just an assistant, and the work is all mindless physical work. It doesn't necessarily need to know how to refine weapons, but he must be able to learn. Of course, some people are not excluded. Sometimes he asked someone to help extract and temper some spiritual minerals, which required the other party to be careful enough and have a high level of spiritual consciousness.

Yan Chao was not young and had seen all kinds of people. Even if Luo Qingli changed into men's clothing, her facial features and temperament were still too soft, which was a bit too girly for a young boy.

Originally, he didn't want to recruit this girl, but since she was practicing physical training, she was qualified to do some physical work. Moreover, when she was refining basalt, Yan Chao discovered that this girl's spiritual consciousness was stronger than the average person.

Since the conditions are met, Yan Chao certainly doesn't mind keeping her for observation. As long as she is not lazy, willing to endure hardships and is efficient, he can also hire her long-term.

Luo Qingli banged for a while, feeling a little strenuous, and soon her arm joints began to get sore. She stopped and looked at Yan Chao, carefully observing his movements while tapping.

Yan Chao raised his eyelids and said casually: "When exercising, you can't just use the strength of your arms. Your shoulders, waist, and legs must exert force at the same time. They should rotate together with the hammer and use the force to hit. This way you can get twice the result with half the effort."

Yan Chao said and demonstrated to her, and Luo Qingli imitated him and started to forge. As expected, he felt a lot more relaxed, especially with the help of the physical refining technique, even if the hammer in his hand was heavy and the raw iron was It’s big and not that strenuous.

When one hand felt tired and weak, Luo Qingli switched to another hand. After playing like this for a day, the piece of pig iron was obviously much smaller.

Yan Chao didn't say yes or no.

It was getting dark, so he closed the door and asked her to prepare dinner.

The first time she entered the kitchen, even with Yan Chao watching, the finished product she made was unsightly.

Luo Qingli put the things on the plate with some embarrassment. She saw Yan Chao's eyebrows twitching twice, took out the jade slip and carved something into it.

"The burned spirit, soul and flesh will be deducted from your wages!"

Luo Qingli: "..."

Yan Chao snorted softly and threw up his sleeves and went back to the room, "Get up at [-]:[-] tomorrow morning to make breakfast!"

Yan Chao had gone off grain and could not eat, but Luo Qingli had to eat.

She looked at the charred food on the plate and took a bite.The taste is really not good, and most of the spiritual energy inside has been destroyed and escaped. The spiritual food has lost its own meaning.

In line with the principle of not wasting, Luo Qingli bit the bullet and ate it all. No matter what, it was all paid for by her wages!
After everything was finished, Luo Qingli went back to his room to rest.

The monk didn't need much sleep, so she planned to use her time at night to meditate and cultivate, while also developing the other two Conception and Governor Veins.

Luo Qingli did not use the Soul Gathering Plate of the Foundation Establishment Monk. Although the Soul Gathering Plate was common, it was unusual for a Qi Refining Monk to use it. In any case, she was now under the same roof as Yan Chao. Next, even if the job at Bailianju is approved by the Director's Hall, and even if there is a formation outside the house to isolate her spiritual consciousness, she can't completely rest assured. What's more, she currently has three strange meridians that have not been passed, and her second Dantian has not been opened. The spirit board was of no use to her at all.
