Damn, why is it this name again! Theresa couldn't help but complain, feeling helpless.

This wasn't the first time someone had mistaken her for a sunflower, and it was getting to the point of annoying her.

I have my own name too!

Every time people mistake her for a sunflower, she feels very confused.

Does the sunflower really look like her?

Besides, in this place, everyone has white hair and golden eyes, so you always meet people who look similar, right? So she really couldn't understand why this happened.

Even in such a dark environment, the man was able to call out Sunflower's name in an instant.

"Hahaha! Long time no see, Sunflower sister! Stand up quickly and let Uncle Frank see how tall you've grown. Why didn't I see you when I went to your brother's house? Maybe the timing was bad? I didn't see either your father or mother."

"Wow, he's taller than me! Also, I haven't seen him for five years. Kids grow up so fast. If I had known, I would have worked at Mine No. 4. I wouldn't have gone to Mine No. 1, which is so far away. And then I heard your brother wasn't feeling well recently, so I came to work with him."

Uncle Frank looked at the girl in front of him who was taller than him, stretched out his arm, and touched her head with a smile.

I haven't been back for five years...

It seems that Xiang Mingri didn't tell him anything. No wonder he didn't know. The person he was talking about was long gone.

"Luckily, your eyes are bright enough, otherwise I might not have recognized you in such a dark place. Come on, follow uncle and take a walk around the mine. Don't worry, we'll be back around four or five o'clock, and your brother will definitely still be asleep then. Anyway, he probably won't say anything when he sees me bringing you back. Tomorrow is payday, and after uncle pays them their wages and says hello to your brother, I'll take you out to play all day!"

Frank patted Theresa on the back and motioned for her to follow him.

This dwarf uncle doesn't look like a bad guy.

But! It’s so troublesome to say, I really want to go home.

The main thing is that we don’t even have a pen and paper right now. Judging from the speed she speaks, it will probably take until dawn to fully explain it, right?

Well, let's go back with him tomorrow morning and let Xiang Mingri explain it to him. Besides, this is their family's private matter.

Theresa followed Frank into the mine.

The mine was filled with crisscrossing tracks and dilapidated mine carts...

In short, as long as it is an element that is suitable for a mine, it can be found here.

The No. 4 mining area is divided into three layers in total.

Among them, the first layer is responsible for transporting the ore dug up by miners on the second and third layers.

They need to transport the ore to the designated location, do a good job of statistics, and record each miner's account. In this way, the miners can get corresponding compensation based on the quality of the ore and earn more money.

Since the risk assessment of the first level is almost zero, there is no additional reward or share, only commission for meeting performance standards.

The second layer is the primary mining location for miners and has a relatively large number of ore assets. Although some locations offer direct access to the third layer, overall, the assessed risk of this layer is at a low-to-medium level.

If you're looking to get rich quick, consider trying the third level, as the quality of the ore there is incredibly high.

Therefore, the price at which the ore can be sold is also astonishingly high. As long as you can dig up a piece of ore that can be used to make weapons with special properties, you basically won’t have to worry about your livelihood for the rest of your life.

Such an attractive opportunity makes every dwarf dream of selling everything he has and even paying a fortune to get the right to forge it himself.

However, there is no free lunch in the world, and huge rewards are often accompanied by greater risks.

The cliff was so deep that it was a joke among the miners.

"Hey? You want to go to the third floor? Why don't you try jumping from the second floor? I guarantee you'll make it to the third floor!"

The limit that the miners could reach individually was only the surface of the third layer.

If you go deeper, the risk level will increase sharply. Almost no one can come back alive from this depth.

But that doesn't mean that no one has ever gone down there. After all, there are too many people who want to get rich by relying on a piece of ore, and there are always people who try it with a lucky mentality.

But if you really want to seek death, you must have a very reliable teammate to accompany you.

Because when you go down the rope to the bottom of the cliff, you will most likely only reach the middle part.

If there is no one to help you watch the rope, it is very likely that when you finish mining the ore and are ready to go back, you will find that the rope has already been cut, and you will be trapped here to death.

So when you choose to go down from here, be sure to find a trustworthy partner.

Of course, you can also put your life on that stranger, who knows, maybe he is a good person? But the probability of this happening should be small!

There is another situation. Suppose you are lucky enough to reach the bottom of the cliff safely and successfully dig up the ore, but the next moment is the most testing moment of human nature.

As you and your teammates climb up with the ore, the trust between you will be put to a great test.

Some people might do something extreme to monopolize the ore, such as cutting the rope, so many people would not trust their companions even if they had the courage to jump.

Therefore, everyone only dared to dig in shallow areas and did not dare to venture into deeper areas.

After all, who knows what dangers and temptations lurk below?

In fact, there is a reason why this cliff was discovered, and this reason has to start with a legend.

This man became a living legend of the Fourth Mining District.

Some people said that they saw him return to the surface with a glowing stone, but there has been no news of him since then.

It is precisely because of this mysterious person that the term "third level of death" came into being.

"Boss Frank? Didn't we agree to go out hunting to satisfy the brothers' cravings? Why did you bring back a kid?" A miner greeted Frank enthusiastically.

"Stop talking. I feel like all the animals around here have been eaten by you. There's not even a shadow left. That's not right? Don't you know her? Isn't she the mine owner's sister?"

Frank pointed at Theresa and asked the others.

"Ah...that's right! You know, the mining area is dirty and dangerous. How could the mine owner bear to let my sister come here? So how could we possibly know each other? Right!" The miner next to him also echoed.

Frank looked at Theresa and saw her nod.

I'm not lying. Theresa has never been here, so naturally no one would know her.

"That won't do. Your father built his fortune by mining. You must experience it. Come on, Sunflower. Grab the pickaxe next to you. I'll take you to the second floor to mine."
