Chapter 80 The ore prospector Meng Ping joins in (please follow up)
Chen Ling did not expect that the person in front of him who was in trouble was none other than his cheap father-in-law Chu Xiong.
He hurriedly stood up to greet his father-in-law, and asked Qingtang to prepare a few dishes of side dishes, then set up a new banquet to welcome his father-in-law.
Chu Yu looked at Chu Xiong with tears streaming down her face, choked with sobs and unable to speak.
Fortunately, He Yunxiu was comforting her and didn't cry in public.
Instead, Chu Xiong said carelessly, "Dad is back well, don't cry."
His eyes swept over Chen Ling. He was the father-in-law looking at his son-in-law. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him.
As soon as he returned to Fangshi, he contacted Shen Zhen.
He was not surprised to hear that Chu Yu was married.
After all, when he left, he told Shen Zhen to marry Chu Yu to a suitable family.
With Shen Zhen's connections in Fangshi, he believed he could find a good in-law for Chu Yu.
Now it seems that Shen Zhen has indeed lived up to his trust.
He was quite satisfied with Chen Ling's situation.
Not only do you get better in the later stages of Qi training, but you also have fields and land.
Such a son-in-law cannot be found even with a lantern.
Although it seems that he has many wives and concubines, it is normal for a man to have three wives and six concubines.
"The food has been prepared in a hurry, so please bear with me, father-in-law."
After the wine and food were ready and the host and guest were seated, Chen Ling said politely with his fists clasped.
"Sister-in-law, there is no need to be polite. Fellow Daoist Meng and I are not outsiders!" Chu Xiong said with a laugh.
Seems extremely generous.
"Fellow Daoist Chen is young and has a huge family fortune. It is truly a blessing for me to meet you today." The monk surnamed Meng raised his wine glass and said politely.
Chen Ling was smiling. Since he came with his father-in-law, he naturally had to give face.
But unknowingly, he had grown into a being that even casual cultivators like Meng Ping in the late stages of Qi refining would envy.
While drinking wine with a smile, he secretly looked at Meng Ping.
Meng Ping is tall, wearing a whitish blue robe. He has sharp eyebrows and elegant manners. He doesn't look very old.
It's not like he was born as a casual cultivator.
According to Chu Xiong's introduction, the two met while mining and were friends in need.
Meng Ping was attacked in the mine. If Chu Xiong hadn't saved his life in time, he would have died long ago.
Therefore, Meng Ping also showed special respect for Chu Xiong.
Of course, what surprised Chen Ling the most was that Meng Ping was actually a prospector.
The reason why he encountered danger was that he found a piece of third-level Jinyang ore by relying on his personal ability.
But accidentally, he was targeted by other casual cultivators, and he was almost killed and raped.
After three rounds of drinking.
The more people talked, the more speculative they became.
"Brother Chu, since the harvest this time is not big and the Chen family is short of manpower, don't take risks in Yunmengze in the future!"
Shen Zhen drank a drink with Chu Xiong and said kindly.
"Hey, there are about a hundred monks who went to Yunmengze with me this time. Only a handful of them can gain anything, and only a dozen can even save their lives."
"I'm going to be over sixty soon, so I'm afraid I won't be able to build a foundation!"
"I won't force it anymore!"
"I'll take good care of Yu'er from now on, and I can make up for the guilt I've suffered over the years!"
Chu Xiong drank down the glass of wine in his hand, sighing helplessly as if a hero was at his end.
If a casual cultivator like him cannot establish a foundation before the age of sixty, he will basically have no chance in the future.
Shen Zhen chuckled and said, "As long as you have everything figured out!"
"Fellow Daoist Chen, I have a heartfelt request! I hope you can agree!"
At this time, Meng Ping stood up, clasped his fists towards Chen Ling with a solemn expression and said.
"this?"
Chen Ling was slightly stunned, not expecting that Meng Ping would suddenly say this.
Although he had a good relationship with his father-in-law, how could he agree to something for no reason?
But for the sake of his father-in-law, he couldn't refuse immediately.
He could only smile and say, "What's wrong with Fellow Daoist Meng? As long as it's within my ability, I will definitely help!"
With a sudden thought, Meng Ping took out a fist-sized piece of ore from his storage bag and handed it to Chen Ling. He said with a serious face, "As long as you, fellow Daoist Chen, take in me, a member of the Meng family, I am willing to offer you this third-level Golden Yang Stone." .”
"Third-level Golden Yang Stone!"
Seeing the ore shining with golden fire and brilliant colors in front of him, Chen Ling, who had been calm all this time, exclaimed slightly.
Shen Zhen also widened his eyes. Both of them have been dealing with treasures all year round.
Naturally, he knew the value of this third-level Golden Yang Stone.
Especially Chen Ling.
Third-level materials are extremely precious. If used well and combined with level-5 or higher spiritual restraints, a top-grade or even top-quality spiritual weapon can be refined.
Moreover, this Jinyang Stone is extremely suitable for Li Yourong.
Not only is the material hard, but it also has the properties of metal and fire. It is almost seamlessly connected with Li Yourong's spiritual roots and the Nine-turn Spiritual Flame Art he has practiced.
If he forged a high-grade spiritual sword, Li Yourong could hold the sword and use the Fire Lotus Sword Technique, and he would definitely be able to easily crush the early-stage foundation-building monks.
[Tip: If you improve the spiritual land and belong to the tribe, you can get 30 incense points. 】
The panel prompt bar suddenly appeared.
Although Chen Ling is not in a hurry to expand affiliated members.
But the tangible benefits before him made him excited.
Moreover, Meng Ping is also an ore prospector. This kind of talent is quite popular in any family.
As long as the mineral veins can be explored, it can bring endless profits to the family.
And he also gave me this third-level Golden Yang Stone.
It really gave him no excuse to refuse.
"I wonder who else is in the Mengdao Friends Clan?" Although Chen Ling is eager to obtain incense points, he still needs to understand everything clearly.
Seeing that things were promising, Meng Ping immediately informed Chen Ling of the clan's situation in detail.
It turns out that the Meng family was also a family that moved from the Metallurgical Alliance.
They were originally a subsidiary family of the Gu family, one of the three major golden elixir families in the Metallurgical Alliance.
Just because the Gu family's family tradition was extremely poor, they often harvested vassal families like them.
He had no choice but to bring some of his clansmen to Yunmengze to open up wasteland.
He originally thought that with his skills as an ore prospector, he could find mineral veins and lead his people to live a stable life.
But after coming to Yunmengze for several years, not only did he not find any mineral veins, but he also had no fixed place to live.
The tribesmen were displaced and suffered heavy casualties.
Now I live in the forest on the outermost edge of Fang City, and my safety is not guaranteed at all.
The clan members, who numbered less than 200, lived in fear every day.
When we arrived at Chen Ling's spiritual land, it was a vast area with sparsely populated areas. The surrounding spiritual land was nearly a mile away, but almost no one lived there.
If they can move here, it will not only be safe for the clan members, but they will also be able to improve their cultivation in the future.
Only then did he contribute the Jinyang Stone that he had obtained with great effort and almost death in the mine to Chen Ling.
In exchange for the opportunity to become a vassal family of the Chen family.
Shen Zhen and Chu Xiong looked at each other with approval in their eyes.
Chen Ling thought for a while, and finally nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist Meng, if you want to become a vassal family of my Chen family, you must obey my arrangements in everything from now on!"
"Of course!" Meng Ping replied hurriedly.
In this cold winter alone, more than a dozen clan members died from monster attacks. As long as a family is willing to accept them, he will agree to anything.
"Uncle Shen, you will handle this matter!" Chen Ling warned Shen Zhen again.
Shen Zhen smiled and nodded. The Chen family is currently short of coolies, and a few more people from the Meng family can make arrangements.
After finishing the meal, Meng Ping hurriedly clasped his fists and left.
Shen Zhen also arranged accommodation for Chu Xiong.
The Chen family gradually returned to peace.
