Chapter 46: Subjugation

~11 min read 2,119 words

In front of the Han family mine, it was currently hot, and several wooden small buildings had gradually taken shape, having the appearance of a mining area.

Han Zhu felt a bit emotional seeing this scene. He had been sleeping until he woke up naturally these days, counting money until his hands cramped, and logically speaking, he was living well.

However, when a person's good luck comes, they will be worried about gains and losses. He was on pins and needles all day, fearing that everything before him was just a yellow millet dream, and when he woke up, it would vanish.

"Young Master Han, there don't seem to be many people working under the mine; are these buildings a bit redundant?"

Zhu Ge Qing Ming walked over, with a look of doubt. He had been sent over by Lu Fan two days ago. Although this Han Zhu received him happily, he didn't seem to trust him very much.

Han Zhu came back to his senses and smiled slightly: "Mr. Zhu Ge, you don't understand this. Mining matters, someone will help me handle them. The few mines you and I accepted yesterday are not bad, and I kept those miners, letting them dig the mine; this is just a station!"

Zhu Ge Qing Ming frowned; the kid before him wasn't old, but his airs were not small. He had just arrived the day before yesterday, and yesterday this kid took him out for a walk. With his methods, coercion and inducement, he took down a few mines, which was quite a method.

"Young Master Lu asked me to come and assist you, not to waste it on such boring things. I see you aren't old, although your talent is extremely poor, but under my guidance, mixing a Martial Master in the future is absolutely no problem."

He still couldn't hold back, feeling that this wasn't the right path. Sitting and trading, this kind of lowly work, didn't enter his eyes at all.

"Mr. is wrong!"

A loud laugh rang out, and Zhu Ge Qing Ming and Han Zhu were both happy, looking into the distance, Lu Fan was striding over.

"Young Master Lu, you are finally here!" Han Zhu was overjoyed, the original unease in his heart seemed to dissipate completely with Lu Fan's arrival, and his whole person became spirited.

Zhu Ge Qing Ming bowed, but was puzzled by Lu Fan's words, obviously disagreeing with the other party.

Lu Fan nodded at Han Zhu, then said sternly to Zhu Ge Qing Ming: "How can the business path be a boring thing? You and I practice martial arts and draw runes; the daily expenses are amazing, how much it costs, you must be clear. Regardless of anything else, just say your injuries, wanting to recover, I don't know how many spirit medicines and treasure pills it will consume, each one is an amazing expense."

Zhu Ge Qing Ming froze slightly, unable to speak. Han Zhu on the side opened his mouth wide, incredibly saying: "Young Master Lu, this old man is injured? He was full of energy yesterday, defeating the mine guard Martial Master commander with one punch, how could he be injured?"

Lu Fan frowned, reprimanding Han Zhu: "What old man, this is Mr. Zhu Ge, you must be respectful in the future."

Han Zhu froze slightly, Lu Fan's reprimanding words were listened to, and he hurriedly apologized to Zhu Ge Qing Ming, but his eyebrows didn't seem to be convinced. Lu Fan smiled slightly, patted Han Zhu on the shoulder, and said again: "Han Zhu, Mr. Zhu Ge is currently a Fourth-Rank Great Martial Master. He was once a Qi Refining Realm Rune Venerable. I asked him to come to assist in protecting you, don't let people feel cold!"

As soon as this voice fell, Han Zhu opened his mouth wide, with a look of disbelief, counting on his fingers, "First-Tier Blood Condensation, Second-Tier Gathering Essence... Sixth-Tier Qi Refining! How is this possible?"

He was stunned, never expected that this old man dressed as a fortune teller was actually a high-ranking Sixth-Tier Sorcerer, a dignified Qi Refining Realm Rune Venerable.

Lu Fan smiled without speaking, Zhu Ge Qing Ming on the side felt a bit embarrassed, only saying humble words like "old age, an old man."

Han Zhu only then came back to his senses, bowed, and said solemnly: "Han Zhu has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai, please forgive me, Mr.!"

Zhu Ge Qing Ming hurriedly supported his shoulder, smiling warmly: "It was my fault first, business path, getting ahead, is also an incredible achievement. Several super forces in the Dongxuan Domain are also involved, I was confused just now!"

Lu Fan saw it was about time, and laughed: "Alright, let's go down to the mine together! I'm afraid Mr. Zhu Ge doesn't know the reality of this place, just right to see it together!"

Han Zhu hurriedly led the way, the mine cave was no different from that day, all the way down. Later, there was some change, the path leading to the secret silver stone vein was obviously expanded, and an iron door was added.

"Young Master Lu, the mines dug recently are all here, but it's too important, I don't dare to sell it at all!"

In a mine room, secret silver stones were piled up like a small mountain, shining brightly, illuminating the entire stone room.

"This is... secret silver stone?"

Zhu Ge Qing Ming was stunned, with a look of disbelief. He was once a Sixth-Tier Sorcerer, logically speaking, his knowledge was extraordinary, but this was the first time he had seen so many secret silver stones.

"Hmm! Not daring to sell is right. Secret silver stone is too important; if it spreads out, I'm afraid the entire Mingyue Empire will move, without absolute strength, it's good to be low-key!"

Lu Fan nodded, very satisfied with Han Zhu, and praised him twice, making Han Zhu excited.

"Clang!"

The Art Refining Crystal Furnace smashed out, but Lu Fan didn't wait at all, directly opening the furnace to refine.

This Art Refining Crystal Furnace was designed for refining mines, reaching a Fourth-Tier Profound Artifact, plus Lu Fan's move, refining secret silver stone, the speed was flying fast.

Pieces of pitted secret silver stones were thrown in, then turned into silver square bricks several inches long, and in a moment, more than a hundred pieces of secret silver were all refined.

Han Zhu had a look of disbelief; he had understood the value of secret silver these days. Each piece before him was probably worth ten thousand gold, comparable to the monthly income of this blue gold stone mine.

Zhu Ge Qing Ming was also somewhat surprised; Lu Fan's method of refining secret silver stone looked simple, but it was quite mysterious. Even if he restored his Rune Venerable cultivation, refining these ores before him, without sleeping or eating, would take several days and nights.

Just at this moment, two stumbling footsteps rang out, Qian Shirong and Foreman Li were in rags, their expressions dull, each carrying some secret silver stones, walking in stiffly.

Zhu Ge Qing Ming froze slightly, then understood. These two were clearly under the control of the heart-controlling technique; he thought it was Lu Fan's method, no wonder there were few people under this mine.

"Splash," the secret silver stones poured onto the ground, and the two of them walked away slowly like machines again.

Just at this moment, Lu Fan frowned, his eyelids lifted, and he shouted: "Qian Shirong, you have quite a lot of ability! You broke through my Five Elements Spirit Control Talisman, and still want to pretend until when?"

Qian Shirong, who was dull a moment ago, shook his body, fell to the ground, with a look of horror.

He had already recovered his sanity yesterday, but Lu Fan's Five Elements Spirit Control Talisman was too powerful, and he couldn't resist it at all, so he could only pretend to be dull, hoping to find an opportunity to escape.

Han Zhu only then came back to his senses, his eyebrows crossed, and he shouted with gritted teeth: "Damn! So you were lying to me!" He was full of ferocity, kicking his feet, and the poor Qian Shirong, who had been dull for these days, had a weak body and couldn't bear it, immediately wailing and crying.

Lu Fan was indifferent; Han Zhu had suffered before, and this Qian Shirong was not a good person, so he deserved it; letting Han Zhu vent was also good.

Until Han Zhu was panting, Lu Fan pulled him over, and said indifferently to Qian Shirong:

"You have been trapped here for these days, it is your own fault, do you understand?"

Qian Shirong was sore all over, but hearing Lu Fan's question, it seemed to have some deep meaning. With a start, he hurriedly crawled to Lu Fan's side and begged loudly.

"Young Master Lu, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have been greedy and tried to occupy this secret silver vein. I deserve it, I hope Young Master Lu will punish me lightly!"

Han Zhu snorted coldly, saying: "You know you were wrong? Then you wouldn't have deliberately deceived me, clearly wanting to take advantage of my unpreparedness and escape secretly!"

Zhu Ge Qing Ming on the side rolled his eyes, thinking: You trapped people like this, anyone would want to go out.

Waving his hand, Lu Fan said coldly: "I know very well what you are thinking. You have suffered some bitterness these days, consider it a lesson! However, letting you go just like that is not possible." He frowned, seemingly thinking about something.

Han Zhu looked over with some disappointment, Qian Shirong was full of begging, while Zhu Ge Qing Ming looked at Lu Fan with deep meaning; he was moved by these means.

"Han Zhu, you seem to have collected a few mines!" Han Zhu froze slightly, and Lu Fan said again: "I see you also need a sorcerer by your side, this Qian Shirong can be trained, and can be used as a rune master for a short time!"

As soon as these words fell, Han Zhu and Qian Shirong both widened their eyes. Han Zhu was disdainful, very disgusted with Qian Shirong. While Qian Shirong was pleasantly surprised, instinctively feeling that good luck was about to befall him.

"Young Master Lu's words are not bad, sitting and trading, small troubles, can only mix in the secular world. Only the art refining path is the only way to get involved in the business path. Young Master Han has mines, even if it's just refining, it's much more valuable than simple ore, this little rune master can be of some use."

Zhu Ge Qing Ming nodded, giving Han Zhu a hint. Han Zhu only then understood, his eyes lit up, and he was a bit suspicious again: "Young Master Lu, can this kid do it?"

Lu Fan smiled slightly, looked at Zhu Ge Qing Ming on the side, and said: "With Mr. Zhu Ge's guidance, there will absolutely be no problem."

Qian Shirong froze slightly, although he couldn't see Zhu Ge Qing Ming's background, he could feel the special aura on the other party. It must be an expert; it seems he has turned bad luck into good luck.

"Qian Shirong, you go back and pack up first, and come here tomorrow. Regarding the situation here, you know what to do, right!" Lu Fan's gaze condensed, spiritual power suddenly rolled out, covering Qian Shirong tightly.

Qian Shirong was scared out of his wits, only feeling a mountain pressing on his body, nodding repeatedly, saying he was loyal and would not leak a word.

Then Lu Fan summoned Foreman Li, lifted the restriction, coerced and induced him, and completely subjugated the two. Only then did he let the two leave; in the future, there shouldn't be any problems with this mine cave.

"Young Master Lu, originally these two were quite difficult for me, and I didn't know how to deal with them. Never expected that you used a little trick, and completely solved it, which solved the problem in my heart!"

Han Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, very admiring of Lu Fan's means just now, full of worship.

Lu Fan was indifferent, waving his hand: "These two don't need to worry, let's go, take these secret silvers, and go to the Rune Master Guild to see!" ===== CHAPTER 47 =====

Lu Fan looked indifferent, waved his hand, and said, "There is no need to worry about these two. Let's go, take this secret silver, and go to the Rune Master Guild to have a look!"
