Chapter 959 – Quarrying
Chapter 959: Quarrying Stones
Fu Heng withdrew his gaze and walked back unhurriedly.
Before he came to Zhangwei Mountain that year, he had done a lot of homework in advance, and had also prepared many things to protect him from the cold.
Even so, he encountered a lot of difficulties in the beginning, and also suffered frostbite several times.
The two ascended masters who didn’t know much about Zhangwei Mountain would only be in an even more wretched state than they were back then.
After walking out for some distance, Xiao Bai glanced back and confirmed that he could no longer see Fu Heng’s figure before he grimaced in dissatisfaction.
“Sister, just now that Fu Heng, I feel that he has some ill intentions, is he looking down on us Ascended Ones.”
“He’s not looking down on us, he’s jealous.”
Xu Chuniang explained, “He dreamed of something that we don’t care about, he’s unbalanced in his heart, that’s why he’s jealous.”
“What is the thing that you dream of? Relying on a strong person and going to the Third Sky or the Second Sky?”
Xiao Bai reacted, and in his heart, he looked even more disdainfully at Fu Heng.
“Sister has taught us since we were young that we have to rely on ourselves, only the power that belongs to ourselves is truly strong.
Born dependent on the mind of others, will lose the heart of the strong, this Fu Heng is just so well!”
Xu Chuniang smiled, “He is an aborigine of the Immortal Realm, born in ZongDongTian, his starting point exceeds the vast majority of people in this heaven and earth.
His path is too smooth, he hasn’t experienced any ups and downs or tribulations, what he thinks is naturally different from us, no need to care.”
“Yes, I don’t take him seriously anyway.”
Xiao Bai nodded, turning his eyes and leaving this Fu Heng figure behind.
The place Xu Chuniang had chosen was in a higher location, and the two of them climbed for most of the day before finally arriving.
“Ah Qiu!”
Xiao Bai sneezed and couldn’t help but shake his body, this place was even colder than the bottom!
“Cold?”
Xu Chuniang added two more laws to Little White, “How do you feel now?”
Xiao Bai’s face, which had been frozen purple, once again took on a blood color, “I feel much better now, it’s just that Sister, do you still have enough Immortal Qi?”
“Don’t worry, perhaps it’s because I have transformed my Yuan Qi into my body, my tolerance to extreme cold is slightly higher, this bit of Immortal Qi on me should be enough for us to cause the stone house.”
The two of them surveyed a small piece of open space halfway up the mountainside, and after a short rest, made a rough plan.
“The center near the mountain can be used to build a stone house, and using the mountain’s cover, we can prolong the service life of the greenoka stone.”
Xiao Bai nodded, recalling the other people’s dwellings he saw along the way, and proposed.
“The empty land on both sides, later reclaim it to cultivate immortal grasses or keep some smaller sized immortal beasts.
At that time, Sister will then use formations to enclose both the immortal grass and the immortal beasts and the stone houses.”
“Alright, we’ll do as you say when the time comes, but for now, it’s time to go to the pit to mine the greenoka stone.”
Xu Chuniang threw Xiao Bai a quarrying chisel and walked with Xiao Bai towards the nearest stone mine.
The residence she had chosen was very close to the stone mine, and after walking for less than an hour, she arrived near the stone mine.
When they were still some distance away from the pit, the two of them heard the sound of clanging coming from the stone mine.
By the looks of it, there were quite a few people quarrying stones here.
Outside the stone mine, a famous female Immortal saw Xu Chuniang and Xiao Bai, the two new faces, and warmly greeted them.
“Are the two of you looking to mine Qinggang stone? I have already mined Qinggang stone here, affordable price, good quality, can be cut, and can also be delivered to your door free of charge, do you want to see ……” Halfway through her words, she noticed the quarrying chisel in Bai’s hand and was dumbfounded.
People who spend money to buy quarrying chisels, how would they go to other people’s hands to acquire the Qinggang stone?
It was Xu Chuniang who didn’t mind that her words were only half spoken, and looked at her one more time.
“How do you sell the greenoka stone?”
The female immortal glanced at her hesitantly and subconsciously said.
“Charge by weight, only charge one Immortal Crystal for every thousand pounds of Green Gang Stone, for sales of ten Immortal Crystals or more, free delivery to your door, and an additional charge if you cut it ……”
“Thanks a lot.”
Xu Chuniang nodded lightly, her heart having an approximation.
The greenoka stone was heavy, the head-sized greenoka stone was about a hundred pounds heavy.
Ten pieces of such a large Qinggang stone were only sold for one Immortal Crystal, it seemed that this Qinggang stone, was quite worthless.
Buying more than one, and having it sent back to one’s residence for free, might have some appeal to some people who didn’t have a storage immortal artifact.
Moreover, as soon as this female Immortal saw her and Xiao Bai, she rushed forward to push the sale, not even noticing the quarry chisel in Xiao Bai’s hand.
From this, it could be seen that this business of quarrying and selling Qinggang stones was really not doing well.
Think also, live in this Zhangwei Mountain, mostly is not rich immortal, and how many people are willing to spend this money, buy greenoka stone?
It seems that the method she thought of to earn Immortal Crystals by collecting and selling greenoka stones should not work.
Unable to rely on the mining of the greenstone to make money, Xu Chuniang is not discouraged, this is her idea, there are many other ways to earn immortal crystals, not less than this one.
After the female immortal finished speaking, she reacted with hindsight that the other party was probably also trying to earn immortal crystals by mining the Qinggang stone, and gave Xu Chunniang a wary look.
“You’re not buying my Qinggang stones, why are you asking about this? You guys aren’t trying to steal business from us, are you?”
“Don’t worry, fairy, I have no such intention.”
Hearing Xu Chuniang say this, the female fairy’s face only slightly improved.
“That’s more or less the same, although this stone mine belongs to Zhangwei Mountain and can be mined by anyone, we’ve been doing business here for more than a hundred years, and if anyone else wants to buy it, they’ll only buy it from my family!
Even if you mined a lot of Green Gungsten Stone, you’d definitely smash your hands!”
Xu Chuniang smiled bashfully and did not bother with the female fairy, leading Xiao Bai into the mining pit.
The pit was huge, and there were more than a dozen mine paths inside, Xu Chuniang carefully distinguished the sounds coming out from the depths of the mine for a while, and chose a long and narrow mine path.
Along the mine road all the way deep, in the middle and experienced several forks, so after walking for a quarter of an hour, the surrounding stone wall, gradually appeared large and small greenoka stone.
But these greenoka stone, are after being mined once, the remaining remnants, either the stone body has cracks, or the head is too small, not much value.
Xu Chuniang and Xiaobai continued to walk forward, and when they reached the end of one of the mining paths, they discovered a mining cave.
In this mining cave, there were some traces of mining, and there were still many intact Qinggang stones inside that hadn’t been mined out.
“Let’s mine here.”
Xu Chuniang took out the quarrying chisel and busied herself with Little White.
She held the stone quarrying chisel and chiseled it into the stone wall, and after chiseling along the cycad stone, she mined a complete piece of cycad stone.
With the stone quarrying chisel, it was much easier and less laborious to quarry the greenoka stone.
Otherwise, it would have taken a lot of work to mine these bulky and hard greenoka stones.
