Chapter 67 Found it!
As soon as Li Fan said his words, the expressions of several miner monks suddenly changed.

In their minds, they began to calculate the gains and losses.

The choice given by Li Fan feels different to different people.

Some people are more pragmatic and feel that being exploited by Cao Jian for 50% of his income every day is a more real loss, and the chance of getting Yuan Jade Marrow is not high. There are only one or two lucky ones among more than [-] people, and it may not be them.

Some people think that the reward of Yuan Chalcedony is too attractive. Five hundred spiritual stones are enough for a year of work, and they are not willing to give up the opportunity.

For a moment, these miner monks did not make a decision.

The older monk just thought for a while and said to Li Fan: "Brother Fan, does this make people feel that the loss is too great?"

"After all, if you find Yuan Chalcedony, the Xu family will reward you with five hundred spirit stones."

"Perhaps some people, because of this thought, continue to stay with Cao Jian and do not come here, but they originally wanted to come to you."

Li Fan said calmly: "That's their problem, not mine."

"My rules are very clear and clear. They stand here and I won't force you. If you agree with them, come and if you don't agree with them, leave."

"I'm not interested in forcing anyone or explaining anything. It's all voluntary."

"But remember, after you make a choice, you must be responsible for yourself and don't regret it later."

After Li Fan finished speaking, the miner monks fell silent again.

After a while, another monk who had just spoken clearly stood up.

"I am willing to stand by Senior Fan."

"There are more than 50 miners in our camp. We only collect a few pieces of chalcedony every year, and even if we find it, we will be exploited by Cao Jian. The reward of 400 spirit stones is only [-] yuan. It may not be my turn yet. .”

"But I work hard at mining, and I can earn so much in a year. If I follow Senior Fan, I will be exploited 400% less every year. In two years, the gap will be [-] yuan of spiritual stones."

"Calculating it this way, there is a certain loss on the one hand, and a gain that may not be possible on the other. The rules of Senior Fan are fair."

"Two birds in the forest are worse than one in the hand. I am willing to follow Senior Fan's rules."

Li Fan glanced at the young monk.

"Yes, my mind is very clear. What's your name?" Li Fan asked.

The man replied respectfully: "The junior and senior have the same surname, Fan, and his name is Fan Liangjun."

"Okay, I'll take note of you." Li Fan said.

"Where are you guys?" Li Fan looked at the other miner monks.

The monks thought for a while.

In the end, four of the five monks agreed on the spot, while one was a little reluctant to give up the possible profit of Yuan Chalcedony and said that he would consider it.

Li Fan doesn't force it.

He has no interest in competing for fame and fortune in the mines.

Recruiting more people and increasing the possibility of finding Yuan Chalcedony is Li Fan's core interest.

...

In the blink of an eye, another half month passed.

The Xu family camp in Jinye Mine has changed in the past half month.

Originally, Cao Jian's small gang in the mine was the overlord of the mine, and no one dared to challenge them.

And the sudden arrival of Li Fan, who also claimed to be a tenth-level monk in the Qi Refining Stage, made many people who were dissatisfied with Cao Jian come to his side.

Li Fan stated the rules here. On weekdays, he did not want to take a larger share of the ore revenue, but only took half a percent. It was still given to the Xu family's supervisors rather than to himself, but he wanted the output of Yuan Chalcedony.

The ordinary miner monks in the mine quickly divided into two groups.

One group of people believes that although Yuan Jade Marrow is good, they may not be able to get it if they only produce so much in a year, so they might as well get visible daily benefits. People in this group have less illusions and are relatively pragmatic. Most of them are based on Li Fan. Here, I am willing to abide by Li Fan's rules.

The other group always feels that their luck is better than others, and they may not be able to discover Yuan Chalcedony, so they want to take a chance, but they have to endure Cao Jian's exploitation, so they just pinch their noses and admit it. This group may be more lucky and still have some leftovers. On Cao Jian's side.

The number of miner monks on both sides is about the same. There are 27 people on Li Fan's side and 27 people on Cao Jian's side.

But in terms of reputation, Li Fan is better.

After all, Li Fan doesn't exploit him on weekdays, but the miner monks on Cao Jian's side can see the profits they lose every day.It would be fine without Li Fan, but with Li Fan here, the monks who paid Cao Jian's mining royalties would have to suffer from physical pain every day.

The miners on Cao Jian's side complained a lot.

Cao Jian was very dissatisfied with this.

He even sent his men to cause trouble, hoping to test and provoke Li Fan.

As a result, Li Fan directly used the illusion of spiritual consciousness to spin Cao Jian's ninth-level Qi-refining monks around, making all kinds of ugly appearances, and in the end he didn't even understand what was going on.

Such consequences made Cao Jian extremely frightened, and he couldn't figure out the depth of Li Fan. He calmed down and did not dare to continue to act rashly.

The supervisor of the Xu family was also happy with the situation in front of him.

For the supervisors of the Xu family, it is not good for Cao Jian's family to be the only one in the mine. If one family is the only one, it is easy for the supervisors to be sidelined.

Now there are two factions fighting, and the profits must be shared with the supervisors anyway, which consolidates their power from another perspective. The supervisors don't care whether Cao Jian's power is divided.

However, the bottom line of the Xu family is that the monks should not fight within themselves to cause accidents or human lives. Otherwise, the Xu family's mining manpower will be lost, so Cao Jian, who is more active and provocative, has also been warned not to fight for lives, and Cao Jian is under pressure. , which is also one of the reasons for the quietness.

In this way, the Xu family camp in Jinye Mine fell into another kind of balance after a brief change.

this day.

Li Fan ended his practice for the day in the wooden cabin of the mine camp.

Someone knocked on the door.

After a while, Fan Liangjun and Hai Dongfeng walked in one after another.

Fan Liangjun's attitude was respectful. He saluted Li Fan first, and then said, "I'm here to tell you, senior, how much ore our miners have collected in the past few days."

Li Fan nodded slightly.

Since Li Fan set the rules, many miner monks have taken the initiative to approach.

Among them, Hai Dongfeng is very open-minded, taking care of daily chores and calming down some conflicts among miners and monks. Of course, he also received some benefits from judging this matter.

And Fan Liangjun volunteered his time to do some secretarial and supervisory work for Li Fan.

He also got some benefits, that is, he didn't have to spend half of his daily income, and although his strength was not high, his status among the monks in the mine had improved.

Hai Dongfeng and Fan Liangjun have become Li Fan's right-hand man in the eyes of others.

Of course, this is just what others think.

Li Fan himself has never cared about these petty profits in the mine.

He thinks these things are quite boring, but if they want to appear that way, they still have to go through the motions.

He has a clear goal, everything is done to obtain the chalcedony more conveniently, to improve his own foundation, and to make his cultivation of immortality more complete and smooth in the future.

Fan Liangjun began to report the accounts.

Li Fan didn't pay attention at all, but was thinking about the current progress.

"My spiritual power has improved extremely quickly, faster than expected. It will take up to half a month before I can reach the Great Perfection state of the Qi Refining Stage."

"Although we now control half of the manpower in the Jinye Island Mine Camp, the search progress of Yuan Chalcedony has been greatly accelerated, but the time is still uncertain."

"I wonder if it will delay the progress of my practice."

Li Fan is thinking.

suddenly.

Li Fan, who was listening to the account report, sensed something.

He rolled up his sleeves and wore a crystal bracelet on his arm. There were more than 50 small crystals on the bracelet.

One of the crystals lit up with colorful light.

Seeing this scene, Fan Liangjun, who was reporting the accounts at the front, exclaimed.

"Someone has found Yuan Chalcedony!"
