Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 3619: No harvest at all

Translator: 549690339

Meng Tong had already prepared a Jade shovel and was eager to try. Even if he found a high-quality mine here, Meng jueguang might not give him much spiritual Jade in the future. However, Meng jueguang was his biggest backer. As long as Meng jueguang made a name for himself, Meng Tong would naturally rise as well. Although Meng Tong had never been very smart, he still had the wisdom to survive.

Meng Tong waved his arms and started digging with all his might. However, the reality was completely different from what he had expected. After working hard for an hour, he only managed to dig out two pieces of spiritual Jade, and both of them were useless.

Meng jueguang couldn’t sit still any longer-this was his future! Ever since he came to this conclusion, his ambition had been dependent on this mine. He wouldn’t have gone to all this trouble to get Lin Yi away otherwise. After all, if it was just to fix Lin Yi, why would he change Lin Yi to the seventh Kuangqu? the reason why he brought up this condition was to tempt Lin Yi to agree to it as soon as possible.

But now, seeing that the Jade drop rate of this mine was far from what he had expected, Meng jueguang’s side was in a difficult situation. If he couldn’t find any good Jade no matter what, then the beautiful future he had anticipated was simply a daydream!

Picking up another spare Jade shovel, Meng jueguang could no longer care about the dignity of the eldest martial brother steward and impatiently went into battle himself.

“F * ck! What year is it that even someone as ostentatious as Meng jueguang has come to mine in person?” When the two guards saw this scene from a distance, they could not help but drop their glasses in shock and were dumbfounded.

Both of them were from the GreenCloud Pavilion and had dealt with Meng jueguang a few times in the past. In front of the low-level guards of the Ling Yu Hall, Meng jueguang, as the welcoming new pavilion’s manager, had always acted arrogantly. They had never seen him act in such a “friendly” manner before. Today, the sun must have risen from the West.

However, even with Meng jueguang’s personal involvement, his Halo as the eldest martial brother in charge did not seem to be able to dig out many pieces of good Jade. Even if he did manage to dig out a few pieces of spiritual Jade, they were either trash Jade or useless Jade with thin spiritual energy. As for good Jade with rich spiritual energy, even though he and Meng Tong had worked hard the entire day, they had not managed to dig out a single piece.

Meng jueguang and Meng Tong did not stop until the bell rang to signal the end of work. They looked at the thirty pieces of jade in the basket and felt like crying.

What kind of F * cking joke was this! That bastard Lin Yi dug out eight to ten pieces of good Jade in two days-it’d be great if it were us, working hard for a whole day and not getting a single piece-this was just too weird!

“You guys! You two must be lying to me, this isn’t the mine that Lin Yi was digging at, right?” Meng jueguang suddenly turned to glare at the two guards, his embarrassment turning into anger.

The two guards were shocked. Not to mention that Meng jueguang’s strength was above them, they could not afford to offend this guy just based on his vast network in the spirit Jade Hall. The two of them quickly clarified,”Senior brother Meng, what are you saying? Lin Yi did mine Jade at this mine before, why would he lie to you? If we lie, we will be struck by lightning!”

“Really?” Meng jueguang frowned doubtfully at the two. Strictly speaking, these two really had no reason to lie to him.

“Of course! Besides, you’ve been here before, senior brother Meng-you can tell which mines have been abandoned for a long time and which ones have been mined recently. Lin Yi’s the only one who came to the tenth Kuangqu recently!” The two guards hurriedly explained.

“That’s true,” Meng jueguang reluctantly believed the two’s words, but he began to doubt himself again.”Could it be that there are actually good pieces of jade among the spiritual Jade that I dug up today, but I was wrong about them?”

The same Kuangqu, the same mining spot, Lin Yi was able to dig out so many good jades in two days, while if it were him and Meng Tong, they’d work for nothing for a whole day without even getting a single piece of good Jade. Rather than believing such a ridiculous fact, Meng jueguang would rather believe that he’d made a mistake!

“Let’s go and hand in the work!” The more Meng jueguang thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Without another word, he called Meng Tong and hurriedly set off on their return journey.

The two crossed the long tunnel number ten and finally reached the delivery point, bumping into Lin Yi who was coming out of tunnel number seven. Lin Yi was surprised to see the two sweating profusely, but he greeted them with a half-smile.

F * ck, this kid couldn’t be waiting here just to see us make a fool of ourselves, right?! Recalling what they had done two days ago, Meng jueguang and Meng Tong’s hearts began to thump.

But the two really did misunderstand Lin Yi-he’d expected that the two wouldn’t be able to find any good Jade, but he wasn’t in the mood to watch them make a fool of themselves. The reason why he met them here was purely because he wanted to observe the Guard’s routine. He stayed in the Kuangqu area for a while longer, and it was a complete coincidence.

However, even if it was a coincidence, in Meng jueguang and Meng Tong’s eyes, it was definitely a coincidence created by Lin Yi X this bastard wanted to see the two of them embarrass themselves!

But even if the two didn’t want Lin Yi to make a fool out of themselves, he still saw it as expected. There wasn’t much to say about the weight, but the quality inspection results were: “Meng Tong, I have zero good jades and twenty-seven pieces of useless Jade.”

This one sentence was a death sentence for the luck they had gotten on the road earlier. Meng jueguang and Meng Tong’s expressions immediately turned dull, and they were unable to come back to their senses.

“Hehe … To be able to dig out 27 pieces of useless Jade in the tenth Kuangqu, it’s not a bad harvest. Congratulations.” Lin Yi nodded with a faint smile.

In fact, he didn’t know that Meng jueguang himself had joined the battle today. Based on his previous average of less than twenty pieces of useless Jade in the past two days, Meng Tong’s twenty-seven pieces were indeed not bad.

Therefore, his blessings were truly from the bottom of his heart.

Meng jueguang and Meng Tong’s faces immediately turned ashen. These words were nothing but mockery to them. This bastard was waiting to see them make a fool of themselves! As the manager of the pavilion, it was always Meng jueguang’s turn to mock the new people-who the hell did he get the chance to be mocked by them?! This Lin Yi was too much!
