The Crazed Little Darling: Pampered by the Possesive Commander!-Chapter 164: Level 2 Pure Energy Stone, Striking It Rich!
Completely oblivious to the sudden inspiration of her big brother, Su Ruan lazily nestled in Lu Shinian’s arms, her small face lightly brushing against his chest, her voice soft and tender.
"When will the mining team arrive?"
"In half an hour," Lu Shinian replied with a gentle smile, "Do you want to rest a bit longer, Ruan Ruan?"
Su Ruan shook her head, "No, I want to see the mining."
"Alright, I’ll take you there in a bit," Lu Shinian quietly pinched the soft skin at Su Ruan’s waist.
Su Ruan let out a soft moan, causing Lu Shinian’s eyes to darken.
Half an hour is a bit short, what a pity.
He lowered his head and gave Su Ruan a light peck on the corner of her lips, "I’ll make it up to you later."
Su Ruan: ...
No, no need!
"How about we head out first?" She sat up quickly, fearing that if she delayed, Lu Shinian might do something to her.
With Lu Shinian’s stamina, half an hour surely wouldn’t be enough!
She still wanted to see the mining!
Before Lu Shinian could respond, Su Ruan slipped out of his grasp and quickly walked towards the exit.
As she was about to reach the door, she didn’t forget to look back at Lu Shinian and urged, "Brother Lu, hurry up!"
Lu Shinian chuckled lowly, stood up, and replied in a deep, sexy voice, "Alright."
Half an hour later, the mining team arrived and immediately headed to the site to start the mining operation,
The entire area was cordoned off to prevent the competition from damaging this vein.
The mining operation had to proceed alongside the military league.
Upon reaching the vein, the mining team swiftly got to work, first testing the purity of the Energy Stones according to standards.
The head of the mining team was Fu Yi, the chief of mining for the Lu Family.
After completing the tests, Fu Yi eagerly ran over to Lu Shinian with the testing equipment.
"Young master! Good news!"
Lu Shinian looked up, his expression calm as he glanced at Fu Yi.
"Speak." Brief and concise, he never wasted words.
Fu Yi was long accustomed to the young master’s manner of speaking and chuckled as he said, "The impurity content of this Energy Stone is zero!"
Having already heard about the buzz on the Star Network about Pure Energy Stones, Fu Yi had felt a wave of envy and jealousy upon hearing about pure Energy Stones appearing in other veins while theirs had none.
Who would have thought that pure Energy Stones would appear in this new vein this time?
"Most importantly!" Fu Yi was extremely excited, "This is a Level 2 Energy Stone!"
A Level 2 Pure Energy Stone! He hadn’t heard of any other family having them, but their young master did!
It turns out the lack of them before was all to set the stage for this discovery!
Lu Shinian’s eyes slightly narrowed as he glanced at Su Ruan.
Only to see Su Ruan also looking bewildered, he already had a suspicion in his heart.
This Level 2 Pure Energy Stone wasn’t purified by her.
Which means this Level 2 Energy Stone is truly natural? 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Lu Shinian quietly thought as he responded in a deep voice, "Yes, each Energy Stone produced must be tested."
"Yes!" Fu Yi was extremely excited, "I’ll gather more manpower immediately and work to mine this vein fully!"
Absolutely can’t let others meddle in!
After a brief report, Fu Yi went off to busy himself.
Lu Shinian watched Fu Yi walk away, then looked down to meet Su Ruan’s gaze.
"Shall we head back?" he whispered, his eyes carrying a hint of gentle affection.
Su Ruan obediently nodded and followed Lu Shinian to the temporary base of the Third Legion.
Once inside, Lu Shinian engaged privacy mode and looked at Su Ruan, asking, "Ruan Ruan, that Level 2 Energy Stone wasn’t purified by you?"
Though framed as a question, his tone was asserted.
Su Ruan nodded, feeling somewhat surprised.
Turns out stones with zero impurity content truly exist, this is wonderful!
"Not me," Su Ruan confirmed, "This must be naturally produced."
She looked at Lu Shinian, her eyes glinting, "We accidentally stumbled upon it."
This vein producing Level 2 Pure Energy Stones was certainly not something that could be hidden, but it perfectly corroborated the schemes Lu Shinian had set up previously.
This way, suspicion would not be cast upon her.
Lu Shinian and Su Ruan thought alike, a smile quietly slipping through his eyes, he chuckled lowly, "Yes, stumbled upon it."
"Who knows how many Level 2 Pure Energy Stones this vein might yield," Su Ruan muttered, "Are there many experiencing the Ancestral Stage in the Third Legion? Do they need these Energy Stones?"
Lu Shinian instantly understood her intent.
"You want to give these Energy Stones to the Third Legion?"
"Not give, want to give them to you," Su Ruan said earnestly.
Lu Shinian chuckled, "It’s better to sell; the Third Legion isn’t short on money."
Su Ruan: ...
So this is the wealthy Third Legion?
"Once Fu Yi and the team finish mining, let’s calculate the total amount of Pure Energy Stones and then allocate them," Lu Shinian said solemnly, "We can also sell some to the other Three Great Armies."
As for the price, naturally, it has to be above market rate.
After all, the market hasn’t seen Level 2 Pure Energy Stones yet.
Su Ruan nodded, "Alright, after they’re mined, I’ll contact Qi Chen."
She had promised to sell them earlier, and naturally couldn’t go back on her word.
The distribution of the Level 2 Pure Energy Stones was thus tentatively decided.
Two hours later, a topic named #Level 2 Pure Energy Stone# hit the trending charts.
People surfing the Star Network clicked in to find that a vein had discovered Level 2 Pure Energy Stones.
This was a Level 2 Pure Energy Stone! A stone that could alleviate the Ancestral Stage symptoms of Spiritual Power Users below S-Class!
It should be noted that apart from core members in some of the Four Great Armies, most soldiers’ spiritual power was only A-level; Level 2 Pure Energy Stones are enough to ease their Ancestral Stage symptoms.
It’s just unknown how large the production is, and how many people it will be enough for.
Anyone with some influence immediately started inquiring which vein produced this and what the actual production quantity was.
All of this was within Lu Shinian’s plan.
He ignored those inquiries, simply letting the rumors ferment.
Time flew by, and two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The mining operation had almost been completed; although the purity of Energy Stones in this vein was high, their quantity was far less compared to other veins.
For the highly efficient mining team of the Lu Family, two days was enough to complete over half of the mining operations for this vein.
The cause for celebration was that so far, fifty percent of the mined Energy Stones were Level 2 Pure Energy Stones, numbering over a thousand, an utterly unheard-of and unprecedented amount.
Two days later, it was also the day the individual event in the military league was set to begin, with Star Network leaking that the heavily discussed vein over the past two days was on Muhe Star.
