Of course, there was nothing to choose from the rest of the beds, and the crowd randomly found more than a dozen connected ones and sat down. Dawn briefly stated his plans and then asked them to find an opportunity to scout their surroundings.

Before long, the strong man brought over a stack of quilts and medicine with several people.

The quilt is black and smells bad. It smells like a winter corner. As for those drugs, most of them are inferior trauma potions, but they are better than none.

Everyone quickly applied the potion to the body, Luke used the most, his abdominal wound is very long, but fortunately there is no sign of infection. Dawn doesn't need this. His abnormal constitution is recovering all the time, and now some injuries can hardly be seen.

Lunch is delivered directly to the house, a big bucket, everyone's share is equal, of course, do not expect to have any meat dishes in it.

The working hours of the miners are divided into two shifts, either during the day or at night. So no one in the house came in until Dawn and they set off in gray miners' clothes.

The towering peak facing the gate is the vein, and the mountain is riddled with caves. Under the leadership of the strong man, Dawn and they were assigned to a mine after receiving a sharp mine pick and basket in a hut.

The entrance of the mine has a width of about three people walking side by side, and every dozens of meters, the mountain wall is inlaid with a faint glow of illuminated crystal. Neither bright nor dark, dim color. After walking for hundreds of meters, in front of a downward passage, an old man with a gray beard was waiting there.

"Old Martin, these are all newcomers. Teach them simply." The strong man said to the gray-bearded old man.

"good!" The old Martin replied.

The strong man nodded, then turned to Dawn and said, "if you want to have a better life here and save some money, learn from old Martin."

The remuneration of miners is not fixed, and the system of more work, more pay is adopted here. In addition to having to turn in ten kilograms of ore every day, if you dig one kilogram more, you will get ten copper coins. If rare ore is dug up, the price is extra.

With these words, the strong man turned and walked out of the mine.

"my name is Bill, and you can call me Old Bill. Come on, come down with me now. " Old Bill should go to the aisle first.

It was a long ladder, Dawn, and they kept walking down with Old Bill. About ten minutes, finally touched the bottom. And then move on inside. The interior of the mine extends in all directions and there are many forks. The old Bill was very familiar with this place, and he took them all seven turns and eight turns and went deeper and deeper.

"notice that there is an arrow sign next to each lighting crystal, which indicates the direction of going out. Of course, when you stay here for a long time, you won't need it to guide you. There is a bell up there, and as soon as the bell rings, it means you can go out. "

"the front here has been mined, and it is unlikely that there will be any ore, so if there is mining, it has to go deep to the end of each branch route."

"this is a copper vein. If you find a blue plant in one place, if you mine it next to it, you will usually find ore."

"after finding the ore, do not blindly dig, it is likely to dig the ore into pieces, if there is a rare associated mine next to it, then the loss will be great! You can estimate the size of the ore according to its exposed shape, and then decide where to get off the pick. As for how to judge, here are a few tricks. "

The old Bill explained the main points and points for attention of mining in bits and pieces on the road, while Dawn and they kept nodding. Since we can't get out for the time being, and we have to maintain the injury, the basic problem of food and clothing still needs to be solved. And the medicine, when the supply is finished this time, the supervisor will not care whether they are good or not. If you want to get these things again, you must accumulate some coins to buy them. Of course, when Don gets better, it's also an option to steal. "then what are these? Is it also ore? " David asked, pointing to some shining glass on the wall.

The deeper these things go, the more they are found, and their light even overshadows the illuminated crystal. Along the way, red, yellow, blue, green and purple. All kinds of light bloom, quite magnificent and fantastic.

"Oh, that thing, it's called glazed stone. it's useless, but it's bright in color and fragile in texture." Old Bill looked at it and explained casually.

"the mine is very deep. It has been mined for a long time, isn't it?" Dawn asked on a topic. Every time we go to an unfamiliar environment, we have to collect all kinds of information, which is the accomplishment of a killer.

"Yes, the vein has been discovered for several years now. It is estimated that more than half of the ore has been mined, and the mountain is almost hollowed out. Last year, I remember, last year, someone dug to the other end of the mountain, but then it was sealed. "

Old Bill has the usual habit of old people, but he is very talkative. Probably not many people usually talk, so he talks a lot along Dawn's question.

In the garrulous voice of old Bill, they finally reached the end of the mine. Old Bill first exemplary waved a mine pick to find a fist-sized copper ore for everyone to identify. Then it is constantly showing people how to get off the pick. It was probably an opportunistic conversation, and the old Bill also talked about years of experience in searching for minerals.

In such an environment, people can not feel the passage of time at all. Only after the bell rang did they realize that it had been a long time before they knew it.

Everyone's record is not good, dug up more than a few pieces, barely a few jin of this, less or even none. Fortunately, they are novice, but there is no mandatory rule that they have to hand in ten kilograms of ore a few days ago, just hand in all that they have dug up.

Among them, only Dawn dug up ten kilos, which made the old bill very impressed, saying that he had been with the newcomer for several years, and he was the first one who could dig up such a quantity in one afternoon. As a matter of fact, Dawn could have dug more, but thought that he didn't have the money to take it anyway, so he didn't bother to do so.

Dawn's success is not due to quick understanding or good luck. He has discovered that the peeping skill can vaguely see the ore buried shallowly, aiming at the target, and there is no harm in it. That's how ten kilograms of ore was dug up. Of course, Dawn won't say anything about this, and he owes all the credit to the guidance of old Bill, who keeps stroking his beard and laughing.

The ore was handed over to David behind, and the crowd followed Old Bill out of the mine. It was already sunset and evening.

Old Bill was chatting and shook his head regretfully when he learned that Dawn and his family did not live with him. But then he patted his head and solemnly told Dawn not to mess with the shackled miners in the cabin.

Dawn, they nodded and said goodbye to Old Bill after handing in the ore.

Dinner is also eaten in the house, about an hour after work. If you don't arrive at that time, I'm sorry, you can only buy it with your own money.

Dawn and his family entered the cabin among the guards watching secretly all the way, and there were many people in the house at this time, and it seemed very lively. Of course, the smell is getting worse.

As soon as he entered the cabin, David frowned and said, "Hey, boss, my quilt is gone."

"Boss, mine is gone, too." "mine, too."

Tang en was surprised to see that most of the beds they had occupied at noon were empty, and out of a dozen people, seven or eight of their quilts had disappeared.

"Boss, over there!" Michio suddenly pointed in one direction.

It was a place leeward against the wall, and it was in a good position in the house, with three bedding piled on the bed over there and a majestic bald man lying on the side of the bed.

"what the hell are you looking at?" Maybe he felt Dawn's eyes, and the bald man turned to sit up and curse viciously.

Bang! Because got up, the thick chain under feet fell heavily on the ground.
