Chapter 1840: Chapter 1,836: Wang Ling’s warmheartedness (1/92)
Translator: 549690339
This was the first time Wang Ling had encountered such a request between students. In the past, he had always avoided it because he felt that it would cause trouble for him, and to a certain extent, there was a risk of exposing his true strength.
But now, Wang Ling really felt that he had changed. Perhaps it was because he had experienced too many world-shaking events, but when he encountered such a small request, he actually felt as calm as a dwarf.
As for exposing his strength… Lotus Sun knew his situation now anyway, and would also cover for him, so it didn’t seem like he had to worry too much.
Of course, the most important thing was that Wang Ling realized that he wasn’t a cold-blooded person.
When he was wearing the seal talisman, his mood hadn’t fluctuated much. In Primary School and junior high school, he had been repeatedly called a cold-blooded animal, but his life in high school seemed to have changed.
He found that he sometimes liked to meddle in other people’s business.
When he had accepted this commission with Lotus Sun, Wang Ling knew very well that it was definitely not because of the other party’s promise of commission fees..
Did he look like someone who wouldn’t be able to walk on the talk of crispy noodle snacks?
Although Wang Ling didn’t know why he had such a warm-hearted change, he was in a very good mood.
This was probably the closest he had ever been to a normal person.
In the afternoon, Old Antique’s theory of history class specifically mentioned the conversion between spirit stones and immortal gold.
Holding a piece of chalk in his hand, old antique wrote down a long list of conversion formulas on the blackboard, which left everyone speechless. This should have been old Pan’s job in the Dao Talisman class, but in the end, it had been snatched away by Old Antique.
On the other hand, old antique’s cultivation knowledge was indeed very extensive. In Wang Ling’s opinion, Old Antique wasn’t only good at teaching history theory classes, but he was also good at the other classes — he was a genuine jack-of-all-trades.
“I saw the formulas on it when I was in middle school. It’s not really a test point now, but if you’re interested, you can write it down.”
After writing it down, old antique habitually wiped his chalk-stained hand with the rag on the table, then, he continued, “There are two ways to extract spirit stones. One is to collect spirit ores and process them through a machine, and the other is to create spirit stones by artificially absorbing the natural spirit energy into a machine. After that, the spirit stones created can be combined with other materials to transform into immortal gold that is even more valuable
“The former is more efficient, but there are often limited spirit mines in the natural world. If overexploited, sooner or later, there will be a situation where there will be no ore available. “As for creating spirit stones by manual input machines, although they are inexhaustible, their efficiency is very low. On the other hand, if you work in this field for a long time, it might have some impact on your cultivation foundation and even damage your spirit roots.”
Wang Ling had actually heard these words from grenade-throwing senior immortal before.
When heavenly dog was still under the control of the Saint Clan, the Saint Clan had planned to have heavenly dog wage a spirit stone trade war against Huaguo water curtain group, but before they could do so, heavenly dog had already been annexed by the battle sect.
At that time, Heavenly Dog had planned to short the spirit stone market, causing Huaguo water curtain group and battle sect to suffer losses for no reason, and Wang Ling himself had been prepared to save the market.
It was just artificially creating spirit stones. With his output power… if he continued to output spirit stones for one day, he might directly become the richest person in the world.
At that moment, the class talked about the possibility that artificially creating spirit stones with spirit energy might harm his body.
Wang Ling wasn’t worried at all about this. Although his output power was high, it wouldn’t affect his body.
There wouldn’t be any problems with the normal conversion of spirit energy into spirit stones. As long as he didn’t work continuously or tiredly, there wouldn’t be any impact. He was afraid that some black-hearted factories would continue to squeeze the labor force in order to make money.
“Isn’t it forbidden in the country?”Someone raised his hand and asked curiously.
“There’s a clear rule regarding the working hours for manual spirit stone creation. All cultivators who are employed to import spirit energy into machines must work no more than five hours a day, and they must change shifts once the five hours are up.”
Old antique said, “This is a hard and fast rule for all regular spirit stone processing plants. If this standard is not followed, once the regulatory authorities find out, the relevant enterprises and processing plants will be fined up to thirty times.”
“Teacher, if you’re talking about regular, are there any irregular ones?”Super Chen asked at this moment.
“The market is so big, so it’s inevitable that there will be a few fish that slip through the net. After all, what’s the saying… the most profitable projects are all in the cultivation criminal law?”. “People, for profit, sometimes take risks and do things that they know are against the rules, but still have to bite the bullet. “These years, all parties have been very effective in cracking down on illegal factories.”
At this point, old antique couldn’t help sighing. “Speaking of which, a few days ago, I saw a satirical cartoon drawn by that very famous CG cartoonist online, specifically targeting those black-hearted factories…”
“The black-hearted Pi Xiu?”
“Yes, that’s him!”
Old antique nodded. “But very soon, this CG cartoon was harmonized. I wonder if it was because it hit a sore spot for some people.”
“What exactly did that black-hearted pi xiu draw?”
“This is a short cartoon about a black-hearted factory owner who uses technology to create a large number of clone cultivators to continuously produce spirit stones for himself.”
Old Antique said with a reminiscing expression, “Those poor clone cultivators are constantly squeezing their bodies until they’re exhausted. At that time, they’ll be abandoned by the black-hearted boss without hesitation, their bodies disintegrated, and they’ll be reforged into new clones. Then, they’ll continue to work for the black boss, forming a cycle.”
After the story was told, everyone in the class shivered in unison.
Without a doubt… This was a short comic that was slightly scary, scary, and suspenseful. Just listening to it made people shudder.
“As expected of teacher Wu he pi Xiu!”
Someone in the class praised.
Usually, when everyone went to school, when they returned home, almost all they faced was homework. It was fine on weekends, but if it was on a normal weekday, almost no one would pay too much attention to what happened on the Internet.
If it was posted and then deleted, it would be even less noticeable.
Everyone in the class fell into a discussion because of old antique’s few words.
But Wang Ling and Lotus Sun’s expressions were clearly a little gloomy.
Wang Ling had always had a very strange feeling about old antique.
Every time he felt that old antique was deliberately hinting at something in class, he felt that it was just some kind of wonderful coincidence.
Clones..
And that short video blogger who looked exactly like Chenqin and had disappeared into thin air.
Wang Ling had a hunch that there might be a connection between the two.
