   Chapter 19 Silver Stream Mine

  Compared with the indecisive last Duke of Thorns, Duke Simon is much tougher when it comes to matters of vital interest, and sometimes he even hesitates to have friction with the royal family of the Riel Empire.

   is like the ownership of Yinliu Mine. From a legal point of view, since Terra I conquered the Blackwater Kingdom and changed the Blackwater Province, several large source silver mines headed by the Yinliu Mine should be the assets of the royal family, and the lord of the City of Thorns just managed it on his behalf. That's it.

However, after Simon took over as Duke of Thorns, the first thing he did was to unplug all the forces that the royal family had placed in the Yinliu Mine, so that the Yinliu Mine became Duke Simon's private property completely. A trade tax is charged on the export trade of quality silver.

This incident once caused the people of Thorns City to be in danger, for fear that Duke Simon, who is not afraid of tigers, would openly confront the royal family if he disagreed, and once again set off on this cursed land. war.

  However, the strange thing is that the royal family chose to compromise, and in the end, it was only a trade agreement that must give priority to the provision of high-quality Elementium Silver metal ingots to the Imperial War Mage Academy and the Star Council.

  In today’s Yinliu Mine, the security guards are elite thorn black guards, all the miners employ locals with no background, and even the oversight management is assigned to the court mages under them.

For the duke, this is indeed a firm grasp of the industry, but for the supervisor who was sent to oversee, a magic caster bent down and came to the mine to be a supervisor, whoever There will be some complaints.

   Especially the overseer who was challenged by this new miner in front of him at the moment. As a magic caster with an expert title, he should have been noticed in the court, or continued his research in the academy.

   As a result, just because of a political mistake, he was assigned to this mine to manage a group of disgraced mortals.

   Whoever comes here will not have a good temper.

   So the first rule he made when he came here was that anyone who spoke to him had to add the phrase "adult" after him. Although it is difficult for him to find any sense of superiority from these miners, he can at least relieve some of the humiliation of being dispatched.

   And this new miner who has just been transferred in front of him dares to joke about these rules.

   Everyone looked at the daring newcomer.

   The overseer did not have an immediate attack, but said with a gloomy expression.

   "Show me your order."

Every miner who comes to Yinliu Mine will be strictly reviewed by the Origin Quality Silver Chamber of Commerce to prevent other forces from placing eyeliners on Origin Quality Silver Mining. Even if they are transferred from other mines, they need to sign the seal. There are orders of rose chapters.

  William took out a folded "Order" from his pocket.

   This is a blank sheet of paper.

   It’s not right to say that it was white paper. The moment the overseer opened it, many fine tadpole texts appeared on the paper, but they only appeared for a moment and then disappeared, and the overseer’s eyes were also lost for a few seconds.

   After he came back to his senses, he folded the paper again as if nothing had happened, and handed it back to William.

   "You join the team first, and we'll talk about the contradictory thing later."

   the overseer said calmly.

The miners around    looked at the supervisor in disbelief, and when he turned his eyes around again, they all hurriedly lowered their heads.

   When did his temper get so good?

  …

   I didn't expect that even the overseer here is a magic caster. Fortunately, the legendary spell [Mark of Confusion] was prepared in advance instead of the expert spell [Confuse Humans], otherwise, it would be really confusing.

In the game, these two skills are only illusion skills. The effect is to make the enemy temporarily ignore him when sneaking. The only difference is that the former can take effect on intelligent creatures below level 50, while the latter can only be used on level 20. The following humans are in effect.

   But after crossing, William found that these two illusion skills, as described, can confuse the mind of the caster to a certain extent, of course, it is only a momentary confusion, and cannot be controlled.

   But let him sneak into this mine first.

   Rows of magic crystal lamps lit up in the mine, and miners filed in, wearing personal equipment in front of the mine elevator.

  William imitated other people's actions to tie the rope to himself, but the method was a little messy, and he didn't tie it for a long time. At this time, the tall man named Sigmons came over.

   "Go through this place from below and tie a knot here..."

   He patiently instructed William to put on the equipment for going down the well.

   "The miners' equipment in several mines in the City of Thorns should be similar. Is this your first time going down a mine?"

   After helping William get dressed, he seemed to ask unintentionally.

   "Well, this is the first time I go down the mine, can you tell me about the situation here?"

  Sigmund looked at the man in front of him in surprise.

  Although I just asked tentatively, I never thought that he had never actually been in a mine.

He had never seen such a thing before. How could it be possible to let a person who had never been in the mine enter the Yinliu mine? Even if it was his old friend's child, Colt, he took it with him for a while. , and began to mine in the true sense.

   Combined with the strange attitude of the previous overseer after seeing the "transfer order", Sigmund couldn't help but doubt the true identity of the person in front of him.

  There are rumors that Duke Simon disguised himself as a miner and went to many mines to investigate before he came to power. Of course, his purpose is definitely not to observe the sentiments of the miners, but to find out the specific operation of the entire source quality silver industry, so as to pave the way for him to completely regain the dominance of the source quality silver industry.

   Then who is this person who doesn't look like a miner now?

   Thinking of this, Sigmons shook his head in his heart.

   No matter who he is, he probably won't bring any changes to them.

   Twenty years ago, the game between the Duke of Thorns and the Royal Family of Riel seemed to have changed the situation in the entire Blackwater Province and affected the fate of countless nobles and bureaucrats. But for the miners, it was nothing more than a slave change of master. Even after the Duke took full power and dispatched the Black Guard of Thorns and the Court Mage as their managers, their lives seemed to have become more difficult.

   "Shall we go down here?"

  William asked while looking at the bottomless pit.

  Sigmund came to his senses and replied.

   "Yes, but waiting for the elevator, the shallow ore veins have been dug up, and now you have to go deeper underground to find the ore veins."

   As he was talking, an elevator with an area of ​​5 square meters and a shape like a steel cage was lifted up.

   "Same as last time, go down to No. 9 mine road in groups of ten. Remember to turn on the magic crystal miner's lamp after going down to save energy. Bring a cage of golden-tailed birds with each group, and come up immediately if there is any abnormality in the bird."

  Sigmund, after speaking to the crowd, said to William and the boy named Colt.

   "You two and I will go down to the mine in the first group."

   The two nodded.

   With the crunching sound of the gears turning, the elevator slowly descended.

   "You have to remember..."

   On the way down the elevator, Sigmons suddenly said.

   "When you go back at night, remember to slow down and calm down in front of the supervisor. Although I don't know why he didn't get angry directly before, he is quite a vengeful person, don't really anger him."

  William smiled and asked a question unrelated to the previous topic.

   "I heard that the Silver Stream Mine was temporarily blocked not long ago, do you know the reason?"

   "Shh! Don't say that here."
