Chapter 541: Using force to suppress others

"Why do you have such a strong fragrance of elixirs? You look like you are not of low grade. How many elixirs have you taken?"

Mr. Wei looked at the refreshed Yu Changsheng, came forward, sniffed lightly, and asked with a quizzical look on his face.

Yu Changsheng was stunned for a moment, with a trace of embarrassment on his face. He smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "As expected, I can't hide anything from you, Master. I ate some fourth-level elixirs and that's how I broke through."

"Well."

Mr. Wei looked wary and then asked, "Where did you get so many fourth-level elixirs?"

Yu Changsheng scratched the back of his head, chuckled, clasped his fists and said, "Luckily, lucky enough to be a fourth-level alchemist. Refining some fourth-level elixirs is not a problem?"

"What!"

Mr. Wei was startled, rubbed his eyes, and looked at Yu Changsheng with an expression of disbelief. After a long time, he exhaled deeply, suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and said in shock: "You mean, you are already a fourth-level alchemist." Master?"

"I feel ashamed to say that I haven't had much time to immerse myself in alchemy in the past two years. Now, in the past half month, I have had a rare leisure time, and I have finally made some progress."

Yu Changsheng laughed, a little embarrassed.

Mr. Wei: “…………”

Mr. Wei was silent for a long time, then a smile appeared on his face. He patted Yu Changsheng's shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, you are worthy of being my disciple. Alchemy is your strength."

"There is no doubt about the preciousness of a fourth-level alchemist. Yes, yes. Although I don't know how you achieved immortality, it seems that your talent in alchemy is really unusual. I will continue to practice it as a skill. It will be of great benefit to you if you go down, since you have so many skills.”

"At such an age, a fourth-level alchemist, and a cultivation base in Zifu, haha. I found a treasure."

Mr. Wei laughed heartily, his expression revealing a look of pride that could not be concealed.

Yu Changsheng smiled bitterly and just nodded.

Alchemist, among the several professions of traditional monks, is the most popular and respected profession, and it is also the mainstream profession.

However, the training of an alchemist is much more difficult than others. It is easy to get started, but the further you go, the more time it takes and a lot of practice. The time and resources to train a fourth-level alchemist are normally unimaginable. of.

Like Yu Changsheng, someone who has no background or resources and can become a fourth-level alchemist at this age is definitely a genius from Wanli Wuyi.

It really shocked Mr. Wei.

In this regard, Yu Changsheng also expressed his understanding. Without the help of the system, he himself would not have been able to reach the level of a fourth-level alchemist so smoothly.

All I can say is that people who cheat cannot be judged by common sense.

………

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, my disciple is a fourth-level alchemist at a young age..."

Mr. Wei was amazed. He looked at Yu Changsheng with a glimmer of light in his eyes and an intriguing smile on his face. He slowly stroked his beard, nodded, and said with a smile:

"Being able to become a fourth-level alchemist is enough to prove your talent in this way. Even in Sea Beast Island, I heard that the chief disciple of the Shanghai Beast Island Alchemy Sect is worthy of being a fourth-level alchemist... …”

Mr. Wei pondered and swallowed calmly: "And if you have this identity, you can use it as an opportunity to use your identity as a fourth-level alchemist as a breakthrough point."

"If it works well, maybe..."

Mr. Wei chuckled, with thousands of thoughts flashing through his mind. Finally, he took a long breath and shook his head.

Yu Changsheng did not speak, but listened quietly, nodding occasionally.

Shanghai Beast Heaven Island, one island and nine sects, are united and relatively independent, forming the holy land of Sea Beast Heaven Island.

The relationship between them is like multiple colleges in a university, with different majors and directions. For example, the Beast Taming Sect on Sea Beast Island is the mainstream of the Beast Taming Master lineage, while the Sword Taming Sect is the mainstream of sword masters. A line dominated by cultivation, while the Alchemy Sect is a line dominated by alchemists...

The nine sects are not completely independent, but have some intersections, each with its own strengths and equal status. The Alchemy Sect is almost responsible for the normal production of elixir resources for the entire Sea Beast Island, so it is not unusual, even if it is a high level of cultivation. In terms of aspects, it is weaker than other sects.

But the status is very respected and indispensable. After all, the Alchemy Sect plays an irreplaceable and important role in the normal operation of the entire Sea Beast Island.

And being an alchemist is a profession that is admired and respected by everyone, which is extraordinary.

"The chief disciple of the Alchemy Sect is older than Yu Changsheng, and he is only a fourth-level alchemist. Changsheng is already a fourth-level alchemist at a young age. If this news spreads, it is estimated that the Alchemy Sect will not be calm. ”

"In this way, we can use this as a breakthrough point to break the deadlock when necessary and achieve unexpected results..."

Mr. Wei pondered, smiled, and after suppressing these thoughts in his heart, he took a long breath and looked towards the edge of the island with sighing eyes.

There, the morning sun breaks, the waves are calm, and the sea breeze blows, bringing with it the unique smell of the sea, giving it a unique flavor.

The sound of the rumbling waves crashing on the shore did not stop. The light was constantly refracted on the sea surface, weaving a gorgeous morning glow on the sky. It was colorful and quite beautiful. The clouds rippled, revealing the cave sky, and a wave of light jumped out from the depths of the sea. The mighty rising sun emits thousands of rays of light.

The winds and clouds were surging, and occasionally there were waves on the sea. From the perspective of Yu Changsheng and Mr. Wei, it was quite magnificent.

This is a completely different scenery from the mainland of the Southern Territory. It is very common in the North Sea Territory. For these two foreigners, it is nothing new.

"I don't know how the Wanxiang Sect is doing now... I hope everything is fine and nothing unexpected happens."

Yu Changsheng pondered, sighed softly, and whispered.

Mr. Wei smiled slightly: "It's okay, everything should be fine. I can go back to the Wanxiang Sect to have a look soon."

"These days, I have been collecting materials for the large-scale teleportation array. I will arrange a location in the Wanxiang Sect later. It will be much more convenient to go back in the future. But it's okay. I have seen that our Lingmine Island is the same as the Wanxiang Sect. In one direction of the Sea Beast Island, that is to say, the straight-line distance between the two is not too far. In addition, we have also set the coordinates on the island. If anything happens, we can also use a one-time emergency transmission. Go back. No need to worry."

Mr. Wei comforted softly and smiled.

"Uh-huh."

Yu Changsheng nodded. Both of them had deep feelings for Wanxiang Sect.

Especially after arriving in a strange place like the North Sea, this feeling becomes even stronger.

"But...it's urgent, but there's one more thing that's a bit troublesome."

Mr. Wei's eyes narrowed and he changed the subject, but there was a look of embarrassment on his face, and he sighed in a low voice, looking helpless.

"What's wrong?"

Yu Changsheng frowned, turned to look at Mr. Wei, and asked doubtfully.

"See this for yourself."

Mr. Wei hesitated for a moment, shook his head gently, and handed Yu Changsheng a mission jade tube.

"The requirements are all here."

"Yes." Yu Changsheng was surprised. He took the mission jade tube and sensed it with his soul. After a while, his face suddenly sank. With a force of his hand, he crushed the mission jade tube into powder. His face was a little livid and he sneered:

"Are you kidding me? Is the mission resource hall of this Sea Beast Island just for free? Are you raising such unreasonable targets? Isn't this deliberately trying to make things difficult for people?"

In the mission jade tube, there is only a simple line of information, which is probably to request that the resources on Sea Beast Island are urgent this year, and that the output of spiritual stones on Lingmine Island should be doubled, and the quality must not be poor.

If you can't do it, there will naturally be punishment. The specific details will be intriguing.

"The annual output of Spirit Mine Island is only 100,000 cubic meters. But this time, the lion opened its mouth and raised the target to 250,000 cubic meters. Isn't this deliberately embarrassing people?"

"Even if Liu Yun and other middlemen are eliminated by us now, we can eliminate the need to line their own pockets and free up part of the output, but the distance of 250,000 square meters is definitely a fantasy, even if the entire Spirit Mine Island is Even if you take a full lunch break and dig hard, it’s difficult to reach this target!”

Yu Changsheng sneered again and again, with a faint anger in his heart, his voice was low, and his face was ugly.

"The most interesting thing is that we are only given the mine's big target tasks, without sending any manpower. With the people like us now, but Jin Dan, it is impossible to achieve this target. This person is the one who arranged the changes. , I’m uneasy and kind.”

"Isn't this purely targeting us?"

Yu Changsheng took a long time, took a deep breath, and then regained some of his emotions.

Mr. Wei listened quietly, with a wry smile on his face involuntarily, nodded, and sighed softly: "It's just for us. It seems that your limelight these days has caused some problems on the Sea Beast Island. The big shots don’t like it, so they make things difficult.”

"Hmph," Yu Changsheng snorted coldly, with faint blue veins popping out on his forehead, "Needless to say, I know that this must be the so-called Seventh Holy Son Wang Sheng who is causing trouble. I did expect that he would take revenge and use his power to suppress People, I can’t believe it’s such a despicable method.”

Mr. Wei was helpless, stroking his forehead and smiling bitterly: "So what if you know, this is a clear move, it is inevitable, we still have to find a way. If not, he will be able to use the topic to his advantage, and who knows what else will happen."

Yu Changsheng was silent.

There are only about 400 miners on Lingkuang Island. Even if these 400 miners work day and night, reaching the target should not be a problem.

But the question is, why can Yu Changsheng do this? If these miners are really used as black slaves, then it is conceivable that the reputation Yu Changsheng has accumulated here will be destroyed in one day, and there will be complaints against him.

After all, mining the spirit mine is inherently difficult and energy-consuming. If you work for months and months without rest, it will lead to a series of adverse consequences.

Coupled with the special environment in the mining area, it is easy to destroy the foundation. If such a thing really happens, the consequences will only be more serious. Yu Changsheng can imagine that Wang Sheng will be able to use this as an excuse to make things more difficult for him.

"What a clever plan, killing two birds with one stone."

After thinking about this clearly, Yu Changsheng couldn't help but sneer.

In fact, this is what Wang Sheng thinks. Expanding the target is both reasonable and unreasonable. If Yu Changsheng is willing to squeeze the miners under his hands, he can barely meet the target requirement.

And if it is not squeezed, it will be difficult to achieve.

Then, if the target is not reached, it will be Yu Changsheng's dereliction of duty, and there will be punishment. If the target is reached, he will definitely be labeled as squeezing the miners, and will arouse the resentment of the miners and others. At that time, there will only be an excuse. , it can be detonated, and it can also suppress Yu Changsheng naturally.

No matter what he did, he would have a reason to suppress Yu Changsheng.

Of course, the idea is like this. When it comes to implementation, Wang Sheng still has little power, and the third elder Wang Donghai is obstructing it. This target was also issued by him.

"It's easy to hide from open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows." Mr. Wei couldn't help but sigh, with a trace of sadness on his face, and he lowered his eyebrows and said: "I knew the suppression would come, but I didn't expect them to be so impatient."

"It's really hard to handle now." Mr. Wei smiled bitterly.

"Is it possible that we really want to squeeze this group of miners? I think, with your current prestige in their hearts, if I tell you the situation frankly and they explain it clearly, then they may not have any complaints. Is that understandable?"

Mr. Wei hesitated and said this.

"Absolutely not," Yu Changsheng shook his head and refused without even thinking.

"No matter whether they have complaints or not, as long as we dare to do this, someone will definitely make a fuss about it and put it into practice. Maybe they will try to trick me in some way,"

Yu Changsheng paused and continued with a sneer:

"Furthermore, I'm sure that as long as we do this, under this high-intensity work, some miners will have accidents and unexpected willingness, and it will definitely be because of this kind of work-related injury. When the time comes, wouldn't it be Is it more convenient for them to slander me? This is a pit, you can’t jump down.”

"Therefore, we cannot force them to do high-intensity work. The gain outweighs the loss and it will only be a thankless task."

"What you said is right."

Mr. Wei thought about it for a moment and nodded, but immediately he looked troubled: "However, we only have this little labor force. If we don't increase the working hours, there is no way we can achieve this target."

"Even if we ask the higher-ups to apply for more disciples to come over, if nothing else happens, we don't know that we will have to wait until the year of the monkey to respond. Since they have set a target like this, how can they easily photograph us? They are just making things difficult for us."

Mr. Wei sighed, angry and unjust.

Yu Changsheng, on the other hand, frowned, thinking carefully, with a troubled look on his face, and his eyebrows almost knitted together. After a while, he exhaled a breath of thick air, hesitated for a moment, slapped his forehead, and said quietly:

"I have thought of a way." (End of chapter)
