Li Ji Mining Materials.
In the backyard, Chu Mu followed a middle-aged man with a mustache, following suit.
"The backyard is relatively large, and the row near the front shop is housing. As a rule, the clerks of our firm live here, each with a room, but there is no spiritual energy supply."
"However, the room has micro-partition restrictions, which can isolate spiritual consciousness and sound. The privacy is pretty good."
"Behind this is where the daily tasks are, mainly the smelting of various mineral materials."
"Your task is to smelt spiritual mineral materials. The price is calculated by the pound. Ten pounds of refined spiritual mineral materials will be considered as one broken spirit. One hundred pounds of spiritual mineral materials will be regarded as one spirit stone. There is no limit."
"The refining of spiritual minerals is very simple. It is nothing more than driving out impurities and retaining the essence."
"You can walk around the warehouse for a few days and see more and learn more."
"As for other benefits, our merchants will have a meal of spiritual rice at the end of each month and can have a day off."
"In addition, at the end of every year, there will be a reward. There are many kinds of rewards, depending on the mood of the shopkeeper. Generally, they are pretty good, which is equivalent to your monthly salary..."
"This is the situation in our business. If you are willing, just go to the front hall and sign the contract. You can start working today..."
Chu Mu silently looked at the yard in front of him. He said it was a yard, but in fact it was just a large factory building.
The front row is the shop facing the street. Behind the shop is the building where the clerk lives. After that, there is a large warehouse with a three-year wall and a transparent side.
Standing at the door of this warehouse, the scenery inside the warehouse is also unobstructed.
Various ores are piled up in different categories, and cultivators in different clothes are busy among them. It looks no different from the small factory in the previous life.
However, there is a partition at the back of the warehouse, and it seems that there is still space inside.
"Okay, I'll go ahead and sign the contract."
Chu Mu did not hesitate too much. Outside the Jade Emperor Valley, it was a chaotic place, but inside the Jade Emperor Valley, the rules were extremely strict!
"Okay, you go sign the contract first, and I'll take you around our business later to familiarize yourself with the situation."
"Please take care of your business."
Chu Mu cupped his hands, said a few words, and then walked towards the front hall.
Immediately, a contract was placed in front of Chu Mu.
The contract is paper-like, dark yellow in color, only one palm long and three fingers wide, and there are only a few lines of words on it. It is similar to the contract in the previous life, but it does not have so many rules.
The general idea is how much the monthly salary is, what the job responsibilities are, and then there are a series of prohibitions, such as prohibiting harming the interests of the company during employment, prohibiting leaking company secrets...
It is prohibited throughout, but there are no penalties at all.
Chu Mu seemed confused and looked at the young man in front of him. He seemed to be the biological son of the shop owner...
"This is the contract between the soul and the soul. After it is signed, it is bound to the soul. If you violate it, the contract will backfire!"
"Under the Foundation Establishment Realm, the light one's soul will be seriously injured, and the serious one's soul will be scattered!"
Chu Mu's heart trembled, his eyes fell on the contract again, and he considered every word.
It's very fair. Except for a few restrictions due to confidentiality reasons, the others are only restrictions during the period of employment. Once you leave, these restrictions are equivalent to nothing.
Seeing Chu Mu's appearance, the man was obviously used to it and said calmly:
"There is no need to worry. The soul contract affects the soul. You can feel it yourself whether it is right or wrong."
Chu Mu tentatively released his spiritual consciousness and sensed the touch. Sure enough, as the man said, the soul contract was clearly revealed.
There are no loopholes, and there are no loopholes. The divine soul contract that exploits the loopholes cannot be established.
The premonition in the dark was very clear.
As Chu Mu thought, the soul contract flickered faintly, and the word "Chu Mu" suddenly appeared on it.
The man said with a smile: "Okay, now that you have signed the contract, you will be a member of Liji Trading Company. Work hard and I will not treat you badly."
Chu Mu nodded and said nothing more.
Who doesn’t know how to draw a pie?
Just listen to it, but if you really believe it, you are stupid, let alone, this is the world of immortality...
From the front hall to the backyard, the steward was obviously still waiting. Chu Mu stepped forward and followed the steward, wandering around Li Ji Mining Materials.
Chu Mu observed this place very carefully, where he expected to live for a long time in the future.
The business of the trading house is very clear, it is nothing more than processing rough ore and selling processed mineral materials.
As for the processing and smelting of mineral materials, it is different from the secular steel furnace smelting. Instead, the spiritual consciousness and magic power of the cultivators are used to manually remove impurities from the crude ore.
Although the efficiency is not high, the quality of the ore processed with the magic of divine consciousness and magic is obviously very good.
The organizational structure of the commercial bank is also very clear.
The shopkeeper at the top, named Wuhan, seems to be an immortal cultivator who has perfected his qi training. He has been practicing in seclusion for many years without a trace.
Then there is the shopkeeper's own son, named Wu An, who is mainly responsible for the operation of the front shop.
Then there is the Wu Guanshi who leads him, who is Wuhan's younger brother, and is responsible for the ore processing and smelting in the warehouse.
Then, there are these working guys,
Counting Chu Mu himself, there are only eight people who are actually doing the work.
The reason why the shopkeeper's surname is Wu, but the trading company is named Li Ji Trading Co., is because the shopkeeper is said to be a disciple of a certain foundation-building expert named Li in Fang City, so the name Li Ji Mining Materials came into being.
After wandering around for a long time, until the sky was getting dark, under the monthly salary system based on work, several people could still be seen busy in the warehouse, and some returned to their rooms early, obviously interested in practicing.
Separating from Guanshi Wu, Chu Mu returned directly to the house assigned to him.
The house was not big, no different from his secular bedroom, it was just a room.
Chu Mu tentatively touched the wall and wooden door with his spiritual consciousness, and a faint sense of obstruction suddenly surged into his heart.
Obviously, what Guanshi Wu said was true. This seemingly ordinary room did have restrictions.
I just don't know if the "spiritual energy supply" he mentioned is what he guessed.
After closing the door, Chu Mu was about to look for the oil seal, but as soon as the door was closed and it was slightly dark, a glass lamp on the table automatically lit up.
The light is soft and extremely bright, giving an unobstructed view of the entire room.
Chu Mu was slightly startled, then stepped forward to pick up the glazed lamp, studied it for a while, and probably had some enlightenment.
It should be something similar to those lamps in the market. The lamp source is a round stone. Although the lamp base is made of colored glass, there are clearly faint lines in it, which are obviously similar to some kind of induction mechanism... or runes.
Chu Mu was also interested. Since it could be placed in his room, it was obviously not a precious thing. Under the "spiritual blessing", his consciousness focused on it and he immediately analyzed the lines in it.
The lines look simple, but are actually quite complex and even a little unclear.
After studying and pondering, clues gathered bit by bit, and Chu Mu's eyes became brighter and brighter.
He doesn't understand runes and has never been exposed to them before, but he can sense aura!
He still knows how to follow the clues.
Under the induction of his spiritual consciousness, he could clearly sense that there were extremely subtle fluctuations of spiritual energy emerging from the lamp.
Following the clues, I quickly locked on one of the runes.
The faint spiritual energy fluctuation appears from this rune.
"Absorbing the free spiritual energy between heaven and earth?"
Chu Mu frowned and felt the fluctuations of spiritual energy carefully. Under the focus of his spiritual consciousness, the spiritual energy light spots seemed to converge towards this rune. In a vague way, he seemed to be able to feel the influence of this rune on spiritual energy. The power of absorption.
The aura is incorporated into the runes, and as the runes flicker and the lines flow, the final destination is just like the luminous stone in the lamp.
"So, the function of this rune is to absorb the spiritual energy floating between heaven and earth and replenish energy for this luminous stone."
"Then... there should be a rune that senses light and darkness, as an automatic control switch..."
Chu Mu murmured to himself, and his consciousness scanned the lamp bit by bit.
But no matter how he observed it, he never discovered the existence of the other rune that he suspected.
"It shouldn't be..."
Chu Mu's face was full of doubts. No matter how magical it is, it must abide by normal principles, right?
Since there are runes that replenish energy, there must be control switches that sense light.
Otherwise, how to control the lamp?
"Hiding it so deeply?"
Observing again, after a long time, Chu Mu almost couldn't help but curse!
The rune he guessed did exist.
But it is hidden in the center of this round luminous stone!
Chu Mu opened the door. Under the dusk and sunset sunlight, the lamp was instantly extinguished. When he closed the door, the lamp was instantly bright again in the darkness.
In the soul's perception, the rune did not detect any movement.
Chu Mu observed carefully and found that multiple phantoms appeared inexplicably despite the subtle sense of spiritual awareness that could have been detected!
"Are there any measures to prevent prying eyes?"
Chu Mu frowned and observed again disbelievingly, but the result was the same.
Under naked eye observation, it seems to be the same. It's okay at a cursory glance, but once you focus and look closely, it's full of phantoms and you can't see anything clearly!
Chu Mu even felt that the method of creating phantoms was probably connected to the two runes of the lamp. Once it was forcibly suppressed, the runes would be destroyed and the lamp destroyed.
"Strictly guard against such a small trick..."
Chu Mu shook his head. He suddenly felt that the puppet inheritance in his mind was probably much more precious than he imagined!
After all, this little lamp in front of him only contained two runes. Even a novice like him could roughly analyze it, and his technical content was definitely not high.
But in this Yuhuanggufang City, lamps are indispensable on every street, and in the homes of every immortal cultivator, such lamps are also indispensable...
This seemingly inconspicuous lamp has a huge market behind it...
Two such inconspicuous runes have such huge wealth value.
This shows the importance of technical knowledge in the world of immortality.
It also shows how important the basic inheritance of the puppet technique is in his mind, and how terrifying its wealth value is!
