Chapter 17 Wages are paid
dragon?
"What is that?" Someone was puzzled.
Xu Ming said: "The Qiu may be unfamiliar to everyone, but it also has another name, the Qiu Dragon."
"Dragon?" Everyone was shocked immediately.
The horned dragon is actually related to the dragon in myths and legends.
"The horned dragon is not a dragon, it is a large snake with long horns. This kind of creature did not exist in the first place. It is an extraordinary creature that invaded us from another world after the Tianqing incident. The horned dragon was found in a dangerous area of a city.
He was hunted down by a group of practitioners, and the corpse was sold to a pharmaceutical company. The cultivation cabin is produced by dissecting and researching the corpses of various extraordinary creatures." Xu Ming said.
"There are many things like this. If you are very confident in your own strength, you can try to enter the dangerous zone. If you can catch or hunt an extraordinary creature alive, you can earn a lot of money."
Zhang Gao stopped repeatedly: "Forget it, we went to the dangerous zone just to feed. Facing those extraordinary creatures is not enough to fill our teeth. I still work as a guide to make money. Li Yi, you
Say it right."
Li Yi said: "Working is just a transition. Have you ever seen any working man make a fortune? If I have the ability, I will go to the dangerous area to catch an extraordinary creature. As long as I succeed, I will make enough money for you to spend a lifetime. If there are not enough benefits,
, how do you think that horned dragon became an accessory on the training cabin?"
"Those practitioners who are walking in front are not fools. They must be willing to risk hunting the horned dragon because there is a profit to be made."
Xu Ming nodded and said: "Yes, in the face of huge interests, even powerful practitioners are willing to risk their lives to do some dangerous things."
"Okay, everyone, let's eat first. There is plenty of food in the cafeteria. If you don't want to waste a lot of time eating, we will also provide nutrient solution, but you can only drink it in the cafeteria and cannot take it away."
Everyone saw that a variety of exquisite food had been prepared in the cafeteria on this floor, including a large number of steaks, fresh raw fish, large pots of broth, and piles of fruits and vegetables.
These can provide practitioners with a large amount of nutrition.
"Since there is food, I will definitely eat." Zhang Gao said: "The nutrient solution is only suitable for use during practice. It is better to eat if you are not practicing now."
"Why is this? Isn't nutrient solution more convenient?" Li Yi asked.
Zhang Gao immediately explained: "That's because our practitioners' bodies are transforming and evolving. A large diet can activate our ability to digest and absorb food. If we drink nutrient solution for a long time, our body's gastrointestinal function will gradually weaken, and finally
It cannot keep up with the speed of physical evolution, which leaves hidden dangers. Since we spend most of our time practicing, we have less opportunities to exercise our digestion and absorption abilities, so we try to eat when we can."
"So that's it." Li Yi suddenly understood and learned some new knowledge of practice.
"Thank you for your answer. In that case, I will choose to eat."
Zhang Gao suddenly laughed, and then continued: "Li Yi, when you eat, it is best to choose meat such as steak, chicken and duck. If possible, it is best to eat it with some bones. This will exercise the effect on our stomach.
It will be better.”
"Yes, some ferocious beasts in nature can even digest large bones. We practitioners are constantly evolving. Sooner or later, our body functions will surpass those of any ferocious beast in nature. Therefore, sooner or later we will also master the ability to digest bones. With necessary exercise
It’s indispensable. Okay, let’s stop talking nonsense and let’s start eating.” Another practitioner next to him agreed.
Soon, several people started to get food frantically, and then found a place to sit down and eat.
Li Yi was not polite and took all kinds of delicacies at will. He wanted to have a feast this time, because there were many things here that he was usually reluctant to eat. Now that he finally got the chance, of course he had to eat them hard.
"Li Yi, what happened before was a misunderstanding. I am here to solemnly apologize to you. I hope you don't take it personally. If you need help with anything in the future, I will definitely help."
At this time, a practitioner came over with a dinner plate and solemnly apologized.
His name was Lu Jue, and he didn't want to offend a potential practitioner to death because of such a trivial matter, and he was not the initiator, so he wanted to take this opportunity to have a meal to resolve the misunderstanding.
If this misunderstanding is not resolved in time, conflicts will break out again in the future, and then we will really become enemies.
After all, the circle of cultivators in Tianchang City is not that big, and you will never see them again if you look down or look up.
Li Yi was startled, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and looked at him calmly: "I'm not the kind of person with a small belly. Since you took the initiative to apologize to me and are willing to resolve this misunderstanding, I am happy to accept it. Everyone goes out to make money, right?
To enmity, and I don’t have any deep grudge against you.”
"Thank you."
Lu Jue took a deep breath and relaxed: "I was also coerced at the time, and I didn't expect Wu Zhen to do that."
"What happened before is over, let's eat." Li Yi nodded.
Only the strong deserve to be treated kindly. The weaker you are, the more you will be bullied. He has long understood this truth.
"Li Yi, I also have to apologize to you. I should have stood up in that situation, and I shouldn't have hidden in the room and ignored it." Zhang Gao also came over at this time, and he said with some annoyance.
Li Yi said: "This is none of your business. You don't need to apologize to me. I don't blame you."
He would not resent Zhang Gao for not helping. After all, when they met for the first time, everyone was a stranger. It was normal for Zhang Gao to choose Mingzhe to protect himself. There are not so many good people in this world who are brave enough to do justice.
"That's good, so some misunderstandings need to be resolved as soon as possible. It is better to have many friends than enemies when you are away. Forget it, don't talk about it, just eat, eat." Zhang Gao laughed, and then began to immerse himself in the meal.
Li Yi didn't speak and continued to eat and drink.
But Zhao Xiaoxiao, who saw this scene not far away, looked hesitant.
"Should I also apologize to Li Yi and resolve this misunderstanding?" She hesitated.
"Is your apology useful?"
Wu Zhen, who was now bruised and swollen, walked over with a sneer: "You looked down on others from the beginning."
Zhao Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and said: "I looked down on others at first, but I never thought about bullying others. Besides, there is nothing wrong with being snobbish. I just looked down upon them."
"The process is not important. You have to be responsible for this matter. You and Li Yi have settled a feud. Instead of apologizing, it is better to find a way to make Li Yi unemployed. His current practice is not going well because of lack of money. If
It would be really dangerous for him to save a lot of money from this job and then take advantage of the environment here to practice cultivation."
Wu Zhen said, trying to draw Zhao Xiaoxiao to his side.
"If you want to deal with Li Yi, you can do it yourself. I won't bring you any more trouble." Zhao Xiaoxiao said angrily.
At this time, the supervisor Xu Ming who had just left returned, accompanied by two assistants, each carrying a box in their hands.
"I'm sorry to disturb everyone's meal time, but considering that I have other work to do here, I can only settle your first day's salary here."
"Have you paid your wages? That's great."
Suddenly, everyone stopped eating and gathered over one after another.
Xu Ming took a salary list and looked at it: "Zhang Gao, I worked six hours and did not interrupt the guidance work in the middle. The total salary is 54,000."
Then an assistant opened the box, quickly took out a wad of money and counted it, and soon the salary of 54,000 was handed into Zhang Gao's hands.
However, the salary of fifty-four thousand may seem like a lot, but in fact it is only a small amount, because the largest denomination now is one thousand yuan, not the previous one hundred yuan.
But Zhang Gao was still very excited after receiving it, because it was the largest daily salary he had ever received since working as an instructor.
"Zhao Xiaoxiao, six hours of work, continuous guidance work, salary fifty-four thousand." Xu Ming said, and continued to ask the assistant to pay the salary.
Zhao Xiaoxiao counted the salary after taking it, then nodded and put it away.
Later, Lu Jue and another practitioner also received their wages, both of which were fifty-four thousand.
"Wu Zhen, you work six hours, but you woke up from your meditation midway, so according to the contract, your salary is halved, totaling 27,000." Supervisor Xu Ming said: "I hope you will be more serious next time you work.
"
"I will adjust my condition tomorrow." Wu Zhen's face was a little ugly. He did not leave immediately after receiving his salary, but looked at Li Yi.
He wanted to know how much Li Yi earned for six hours of guiding work.
After all, he was the only one among the seven who signed the second contract, and the second contract did not come with a basic salary. How much you earned depended on how much cosmic energy you channeled.
Li Yi was also curious at this moment about how much money he made.
Xu Ming glanced at the salary list, feeling a little surprised at the moment, and then said: "Li Yi, you worked for six hours, during which you guided a total of 2,200 cosmic energy, so your salary is 220,000.
"
Two hundred and twenty thousand?
When they heard this, everyone else looked at Li Yi in surprise.
