Beauty and the Bodyguard

"If it's a good Jade full of spiritual energy, it's understandable to be checked so strictly. But is it the same for useless Jade?" Lin Yi said.

The miserable senior brother nodded."It's the same. No matter if it's good Jade or bad Jade, the process is the same. Only at the end, before entering the warehouse, will there be a special person to distinguish the quality, sort out the good Jade and the bad Jade, and record the corresponding amount as the basis for future payment."

This ... This matter was a little tricky!

According to Lin Yi's original plan, hiding a few pieces of jade should be a piece of cake, but this way, even if he only hid one piece of Jade, it was very likely that people would find out.

After all, once a spiritual Jade was dug out, the guards would come over to weigh it and record the data. When it was time to hand in the work, they would have to re-weigh it. If the number of spiritual jades harvested every day was not much, even if it was just one piece secretly hidden, there would be a big difference between the two data!

Or could he hide the spiritual Jade in the Jade space the moment he dug it out and pretend that he didn't find it?

Lin Yi naturally came up with this idea, but he quickly gave it up after secretly looking back at the two guards.

The reason was that no one came to this dead Kuangqu area to collect Jade, so the two guards would look at Lin Yi from time to time out of boredom. The process was different when they dug up the Jade compared to when they didn 't, and it wasn't a short one. Perhaps Lin Yi didn't even have time to dig it out completely before the two guards walked behind him to weigh it-there was no way to escape their surveillance.

However, if he couldn't make a move before the guards weighed the spiritual Jade, it would be even more impossible after that. At that moment, Lin Yi even felt that he had made a mistake coming here. If he couldn't think of a foolproof way to steal the spiritual Jade, then the next three months would be a complete waste of his practitioning time.

He thought of all the possible ways he could do it as he continued to mine-his luck was pretty good, after all, and he found another spirit Jade in just half an incense's time.

"It seems that this Junior brother's luck is not bad! Although it's much lighter than normal good Jade, it's still a bit heavier than the first one. It's clear that even if it's a useless Jade, it's still a good piece of useless Jade!" The guard who came over to weigh them sighed with a smile.

Originally, according to the rules of the spirit Jade Hall, under normal circumstances, the guards were not allowed to chat with outsiders. However, the work at the tenth Kuangqu was really boring. Even if they casually chatted to relieve their boredom, their colleagues would turn a blind eye to it.

"The weight of good Jade is heavier?" Lin Yi suddenly had an idea after hearing the Guard's words. He turned to the miserable senior brother and asked.

"That's right. Junior Brother Lin, don't you know that even if they are of the same size, a good Jade full of spiritual energy is much more valuable than a useless Jade with thin spiritual energy!" The miserable senior brother nodded.

"I see." Lin Yi let out a breath of air. If that was the case, then even if they were to face the strict surveillance procedures of the spirit Jade Hall, there might still be a loophole.

"Brother ku, I have a basic understanding of the situation here. You don't need to waste your time with me anymore. Why don't you go and do your own things?" Lin Yi turned to his bitter-looking brother.

"This ... Alright, then I'll take my leave first." The miserable senior brother nodded. He'd followed Lin Yi here today because he didn't want Lin Yi to be at a disadvantage, but now that things had come to this point, he couldn't just keep wasting time here. He might as well go back and think of a way to help Lin Yi.

Lin Yi's thoughts were starting to take shape as he watched his poor brother leave-the most important thing was the weight of the spiritual Jade. Spiritual jades full of Qi were heavy, while spiritual jades with thin Qi were light-this was the reason why Lin Yi wanted to use it.

The two guards would look over from time to time, but they didn't pay attention to the situation all the time. According to Lin Yi's plan, he could take the weighed Jade from the basket and put it in his Jade space when the guards weren't paying attention, charge it, and put it back quietly. If he could get a few more pieces, the extra weight after charging should be enough to match a piece of spirit Jade, and even if he managed to steal one, he'd still be able to get it. There was not much difference in the weight after the work was handed over and weighed, so he could get away with it.

After thinking about it, the only flaw in this plan was that there would be quite a few good quality Jade in the storage. It wouldn't be a problem in other high-quality Kuangqu, but in the tenth mine, it was a little too obvious.

But then again, this wasn't a big problem. No matter how obvious it was, people would only say that Lin Yi had heaven-defying luck, but no one would think that Lin Yi had secretly turned useless Jade into good Jade and put it back. After all, in the logic of normal people, using their own good Jade as a mine Jade to hand in was simply crazy!

If the good Jade wasn't mined on the spot and he already had it, then what was the point of handing it over? he could just keep it for himself! If they had to count it as the result of mining and expect a reward of one hundred Yuan for one piece, their brains must have been kicked by a donkey! Plus, there was a body search before entering or leaving-it was impossible for Lin Yi to bring the spiritual Jade in!

With the plan decided, Lin Yi put it into action immediately. After digging for eight hours non-stop, other than the obviously useless jades, there were eighteen "useless spirit jades" of all sizes in his basket. This might not be much in other high-yield Kuangqu, but this was dead Mine number ten. It was already pretty good to have this result. Even the guards who came to weigh the Jades were amazed.

Of course, according to the tenth Kuangqu's usual behavior, although these 18 pieces of spiritual Jade looked impressive, they were 100% useless Jade, so there was no need to be envious.

It looked like Lin Yi was mining all the time, but during the process, he'd secretly used the Jade space to store eight pieces of spirit Jade into the basket!

This was because the spiritual Jade was taken out from the middle of the basket. It still looked the same on the surface and there were not many changes. The guards who were standing far away would not be able to notice anything unusual if they did not look carefully.

In the next four hours, in order to prevent the guards from coming, Lin Yi purposely didn't dig out any spiritual jades. He only sneaked them back into the basket after the spiritual jades in the Jade space were fully charged. (To be continued.)
