Chapter 1155: Chapter 366: Longevity Jade Pendant, I Accepted!
“Thirty times first place? Mining once every two days?” Mu Rufeng pondered carefully.
“Alright, I agree.” Without bargaining or much hesitation, he readily agreed.
Although it might be difficult and exhausting, Mu Rufeng believed that obtaining this Longevity Jade Pendant would make it all worthwhile.
However, Mu Rufeng also realized that achieving first place would be extremely challenging.
“Senior, can you tell me the weight of the ore for the first place every day?” Mu Rufeng asked.
No matter how much it was, Mu Rufeng would agree to it because no matter the amount, it was a good deal and worth it.
“First place generally fluctuates between 4 to 5 million pounds, never less than four million and never more than five million.”
“The bosses of each region have discussed it so that each day’s first place is decided, and the quantity doesn’t differ too much,” Skinny Monkey said.
“Five million pounds! And they even discussed it?” Mu Rufeng was slightly surprised.
“Judging by your speed, you could probably dig five to six million pounds in a day. To prevent any accidents, I will dig an additional million pounds, making it six to seven million, enough to secure first place,” Skinny Monkey said.
Five million is indeed a lot. At Mu Rufeng’s current speed, he really could dig that much in a day.
But those regional bosses might have reserves.
A so-called reserve is when you dig over a million pounds in one day and store the excess for later use.
They only bring it all out when they need to secure first place on a particular day.
They also let the underlings of that region store ore, as there’s no way the Storage Space can hold that much.
The prison guards don’t care about these things at all. As long as you meet the daily task quota, even if you could eat stone, they wouldn’t pay attention.
“Senior Skinny Monkey, if you take first place, won’t it be dangerous for you?” Mu Rufeng asked.
“Heh, what danger could there be? Those guys can’t make a move unless they bribe the prison guards.”
“But they can’t bribe them because if I win first place, the guards also get rewards,” Skinny Monkey sneered.
“I remember you’re in Cell 15, and I’m in Cell 16, right across from you. Today, let’s work hard and let me take first place.”
“I’ll tell you more about this place tonight, alright?” Skinny Monkey said.
“No problem. But shouldn’t we sign an agreement too? You need to give me the item first.” Mu Rufeng said.
“No problem, I have a Rule Contract here.” Skinny Monkey said this, taking out a Rule Contract from his Storage Space.
“It used to be called Rule Contract, but at some point, it all became Rule Contract; it’s quite peculiar, but more convenient than the contract.” Skinny Monkey said.
A contract, as the highest level of rule, if violated, will be suppressed by the rules of the Mysterious World.
Quickly, a heap of provisions appeared on the Rule Contract.
The two of them spent some time verifying them, then modified a few items, adding and removing a few lines.
Finally, they confirmed it, then signed the Rule Contract, signed, stamped fingerprints, and even dripped their own blood.
“Dropping your own blood enhances the binding power of the rule,” Skinny Monkey handed the contract to Mu Rufeng.
“There’s such a saying?” Mu Rufeng was a bit surprised after collecting the contract.
“Didn’t you know? Right, only after reaching Emperor Sovereign, dripping blood strengthens it; Ghost Emperor doesn’t need it,” Skinny Monkey said.
“Alright, this now belongs to you.” Skinny Monkey handed the Longevity Jade Pendant to Mu Rufeng.
Mu Rufeng took it, felt extremely pleased, and without another word, threaded it with a thin cord and hung it around his neck.
This thin cord was also a rule-type item, ensuring that unless Mu Rufeng removed it himself, it couldn’t be taken off.
At the same time, Mu Rufeng took out a tagging card and tagged the Longevity Jade Pendant so that even if lost accidentally, he could summon the pendant back.
As he wore it, an indescribable aura slowly entered Mu Rufeng’s body, continuously cleansing him.
The feeling was wondrous, inexplicable, but soon this aura vanished, presumably hidden so well that even Mu Rufeng couldn’t detect it.
Only when removing and wearing it could he sense it.
“Do your best, mine as much as you can; I only want first place, even second I wouldn’t recognize,” Skinny Monkey instructed.
“Don’t worry, Senior, I will definitely give it my all in mining; we will follow the contract,” Mu Rufeng said with a smile.
“Great. I’ll go mine then. It’d be better if your rank is higher too; if nothing else, at least make it into the top hundred.”
“The reward you gain will also boost your strength, making you mine faster,” Skinny Monkey said.
“What exactly is the reward?” Mu Rufeng asked curiously.
“Haha, it’s something good anyway, beneficial for you. Just do your best to mine, and by evening when you’re off, you’ll find out. I’m off to mine too. Let me know when your Storage Space is full, and we’ll deposit the ores together.”
Skinny Monkey said as he walked towards the distance.
