Taihuang Star Seal
Chapter 19: Competition for Mineral Resources!
At this time, Ding Chen, who was praised by Luo Haoyuan, had a calm demeanor.
He pointed at the gate that was broken by Luo Jiang's kick and said calmly, "That guy broke my gate and I broke two of his front teeth."
"Since his last name is Luo, we can barely call it even!"
"???"
Luo Qinru blinked her big eyes, with a face full of question marks.
Can it be so fair?
How much is the broken door of your compound worth?
Luo Jiang’s front teeth that were knocked out will never grow back in this lifetime!
But what was this sudden feeling of relief?
So, Luo Qinru nodded in her heart: Well, it's a good even! That's how it should be!
A moment.
Ding Chen came to the gate, picked up a broken door panel, frowned, and said to himself: "Alas, my gate..."
The old butler Ah Fu jumped out immediately and said, "Master, please leave it alone. I will find someone to fix the door. I guarantee that you will be satisfied!"
The young man in front of him not only easily resolved the trap set by the Great Elder, but also dealt with Luo Jiang, the ungrateful and ungrateful person.
This made the butler Ah Fu treat him with unprecedented respect!
In the past, when this old butler saw Ding Chen, even if he didn't blow his beard and glare at him, he would most likely have a cold face and ignore him...
Ding Chen nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."
"My dear son-in-law, you are too polite. This is what I should do."
At this time, inside and outside the courtyard.
Those few die-hard fans who still wholeheartedly supported Luo Haoyuan after he was deposed.
Now, the look in her eyes when she looked at Ding Chen had unconsciously become much more affectionate.
Ding Chen grinned and said jokingly, "Hey, it's okay for the pretty maids in the mansion to stare at me with admiring eyes."
"You bunch of rough men, please stop disgusting me with that look, okay?"
"Hahahahaha..."
Everyone couldn't help but burst into friendly laughter.
Only Luo Qinru pursed her cherry red lips slightly.
A hint of displeasure flashed across her bright eyes: "Humph, this fellow Ding Chen always talked about brothels.
Now, you are thinking about the 'pretty maid' in the mansion again? ! "
So, the proud Luo Qinru secretly made up her mind: never give Ding Chen a good face again!
"Eh? Wait, am I jealous?"
Luo Qinru suddenly had an idea.
But soon she laughed at herself: "Haha, how is that possible!"
"I just think Ding Chen is too indecent. If this happens, it will embarrass me... and my father, so I am unhappy."
"Well, that's all!"
……
noon.
The scorching sun hanging high in the sky is burning the earth.
at this time.
Located in a mine in the Xiaoshan mining area north of Tieyan City, the mine is filled with steam and crowded with people.
These hundreds of people are all middle and upper class elite backbones from the Luo, Lu and Zhou families.
They were divided into three waves according to their family affiliations, each occupying an area.
The three major families will compete here today for the ranking of the annual "Mining Competition"!
According to past practice, the rounds of the mining competition will be determined by drawing lots.
If one side is unlucky, it will have to fight two consecutive games with the other two sides.
For example: the Luo family fights against the Lu family, and then against the Zhou family.
The third match was the battle between the Zhou family and the Lu family.
After all three games are finished, City Lord Xiao, who is the judge of the "Mining Competition", will decide the rankings based on the performance of the three major families in the competition.
The family ranked first can obtain up to 50% of the mining rights in the next year!
The second place has 30% of the mining rights.
For the third place, only 20% is left!
Regardless of whether it is the Luo family, the Zhou family, or the Lu family.
The economic lifeline of the three major families in Tieyan City is supported by the profits made from mining ore, forging weapons, and selling them.
In other words, the amount of ore that the three major families are allowed to mine will directly affect their income for the entire next year!
The more income a family has, the more resources it will have to cultivate talent and improve itself.
The overall strength of the family will also widen the gap with its competitors.
This is why the “Mining Competition” is highly valued…
At this time, the Lu family was located directly south of the mine.
Among them, the tall and thin middle-aged man with messy long wet hair scattered on his shoulders is the head of the Lu family: Lu Xingwu.
His hair seemed to have never been dry, no matter when or where!
Rumor has it that this is related to the Lu family's ancestral martial arts technique "Three Thousand Water-Breaking Art" that he practiced.
His son Lu Hanyang's hair wasn't as wet as his father's.
But there was always a hint of gloom in the way he looked at people, which made people feel very uncomfortable!
Located in the northeast of the mine is the Zhou family.
The head of the Zhou family, Zhou Longhai, is fat, bloated, and has a face full of flesh!
His son Zhou Jinrui has a round and fat body like his father.
This made people wonder for a while whether the Zhou family's ancestral martial arts "Zhenshan Jin" must look like a "meat mountain" in order to be effective?
In contrast, the Luo family is located in the northwest area of the mine.
Whether it is the former clan leader Luo Haoyuan or the eldest daughter Luo Qinru, their looks are quite attractive!
Even Ding Chen, the "scumbag son-in-law" of the Luo Mansion who was despised by everyone in Tieyan City, could be considered a handsome young man just from his appearance...
"Huh? On the Luo family side, it's actually the great elder Luo Yangjie standing in the front?"
"It seems that the rumors are true. Luo Haoyuan has indeed been deposed as the clan leader!"
"Of course, Third Uncle, I know even more dirty things about Luo Yangjie!"
"Oh? What's so dirty? Uncle San, please tell me about it."
"Cough cough!"
Zhou Longhai suddenly coughed.
The Zhou family elder who was called Third Uncle immediately covered his mouth and swallowed the secret that was about to be blurted out.
Then he changed the subject and said, "Don't ask so many questions, little brat. Just read on and you'll know!"
"Oh……"
At this time.
Lu Hanyang, the young master of the Lu family, and Zhou Jinrui, the young master of the Zhou family, found Ding Chen in the crowd and walked towards him together tacitly.
"What are you doing?"
The second elder Luo Tong said coldly.
"Don't be nervous, we just came here to talk to Ding Chen and then we'll leave!"
"Hey, Ding Chen, you loser, don't hide in the back row because I can't see you!"
"???"
Ding Chen's face was full of question marks.
In fact, the reason why he sat at the back was entirely arranged by the Great Elder.
It was just a seat, and Ding Chen himself didn't care.
Why now, from Lu Hanyang's mouth, it seems as if he became cowardly and hid on purpose after killing Zhou Hu and Lu Chang?
"Listen carefully, you useless bastard. I am here to tell you something: you'd better pray to God so that you don't run into me in a duel."
"Otherwise, I will make you understand what it means to be unable to live or die!"
On this side, Lu Hanyang had just finished speaking.
Over there, Zhou Jinrui immediately spoke up: "That's right, Ding Chen, just enjoy these few moments of anxiety. You may not have another chance in the future, hahahaha..."
Suddenly someone shouted——
"The city lord has arrived!"
