C582 Digging
"That's great." Zhou Yan naturally wouldn't tell them his goal.
The other party took out a map and introduced it to Zhou Yan. "This is our Cloud Heart City, and this is the surrounding mountains..."
Zhou Yan took a look and quickly found the mountain range he was looking for. He pointed at the ten mountain ranges and said, "These ten should be the best. It would be best if we found them. If I can't find them, I'll have to go to the mountains in other cities to try my luck. "
"I don't know if those mountain ranges have mines or not. Next, let's discuss the conditions of both sides" If there were mines, Zhang Yang would have already made his move. How could it be anyone else's turn?
"Sure." Zhou Yan replied.
Both of them had stated their conditions. Zhou Yan had mentioned many people in the mining staff, but he did not arrange too many soldiers.
When the other party saw how sincere Zhou Yan was, they naturally did not bother with it and stated their conditions.
The other party gave Zhou Yan a few choices, the first one. The first option was to pay a huge price to purchase the rights to mine the ten mountain ranges. As long as the right was purchased... Regardless of whether the ten mountains contained ores or not, it was within the range of the year. The mining rights would belong to Zhou Yan.
The second method was to pay taxes, and the price was the least. Zhou Yan would use manpower and resources, and if the mines were not discovered... If they found it... The other party would collect two layers of tax, and they would send their men to supervise it.
The third method was to cooperate. Both sides would send people to investigate. If they discovered the mine, both sides would send half of their people and the profits would be split by half.
Zhou Yan did not even think about it and directly chose the first method.
Zhou Yan was very confident that he could dig out the ore, and it was even a Nine Stars Spirit Stone. This was a top grade material, and even if he had money, he wouldn't be able to buy much of it.
He only spent a hundred million Spirit Coins to buy ten mountain ranges at once. To Zhou Yan, this was just a small amount of money.
Therefore, both parties began discussing the price. In the end, Zhou Yan successfully obtained the right to mine ten mountain ranges for ten years at the price of two billion Spirit Coins.
Both parties began to sign the contract. They pressed their hand seals and filmed the video as evidence. As long as anyone broke the contract, they would have to bear the corresponding consequences.
After signing the contract, Zhou Yan immediately paid Zhang Yang two billion Spirit Coins.
"Happy cooperation." Zhang Yang was very happy. He used ten useless mountain ranges to exchange for 2 billion Spirit Coin.
"Happy cooperation." Zhou Yan was also very happy. 2 billion Spirit Coin was nothing to Zhou Yan.
Both of them were very happy, laughing at each other's stupidity in their hearts.
City Lord Zhang Yang gave Zhou Yan a coordinate. This was the coordinate outside of their country's territory.
Zhou Yan could use this coordinate to directly teleport to a place near this coordinate. Normally, there wouldn't be too much of a difference.
However, Zhou Yan's Territory could send out the miners and soldiers of the Territory before he left. This way, he wouldn't need to travel a long distance.
There were a total of three thousand miners and a hundred soldiers. This was the biggest concession given by City Lord Zhang Yang. Zhou Yan didn't waste his breath here.
These miners were the best miners in the Territory. Even these soldiers were carefully selected soldiers.
Zhang Yang would naturally send people to keep an eye on these people that Zhou Yan had sent, but it was only to prevent them from harming the nearby villagers. However, Zhang Yang's people would not interfere with Zhou Yan's actions. Instead, they would provide assistance.
After both parties reached an agreement, Zhou Yan handed the excavation work to one of them. He also told the other party that he would be back soon. This matter was very important. Zhou Yan naturally needed to arrange everything properly before he could feel at ease.
Zhou Yan returned to the Territory. Out of the scouting planes he had sent out, only twenty were left, and the rest were all flying back to the Territory.
Zhou Yan began to teleport the Territory to the coordinates given by the enemy.
After a burst of light, Territory arrived at a new place in the blink of an eye.
Standing at a high altitude, he could see a lot of Territory not far away from him.
These people were the lords who came to Profound Feng Dynasty to travel and do business.
Zhou Yan asked the soldiers in Territory to take precautions, and then the rest of the soldiers returned to their normal lives.
He also told them everything that happened in Territory.
After that, Zhou Yan teleported to Yunxin City once again.
Seeing Zhou Yan teleport over with a tool, Zhang Yang was not surprised. He then asked, "Then I'll arrange for someone to send you there. If you need anything, you can contact my subordinates."
"Alright."
Under the escort of Zhang Yang's guards, the group began to head towards the nearest mountain range.
Since they had to put on a good show, Zhou Yan naturally arranged for professional people to investigate the mines.
However, they did not find anything along the way. Zhou Yan deliberately showed a very disappointed look.
Because there were many people, the exploration speed was very fast. The first mountain range was soon finished, followed by the second and third mountains.
When Zhang Yang heard this news, he obviously smiled. He knew that these places did not have any valuable mineral veins, or else he would have cooperated with others to mine.
However, he was not completely confident. After all, his subordinates were not very strong.
A day had passed, and Zhou Yan had not obtained any useful mines. So he had his men set up camp to rest. Zhou Yan told them to inform him immediately if anything happened.
Zhou Yan took out the City Return Stone and returned to Territory. After finishing his cultivation, he returned to the mountain range and continued his investigation.
Finally, in the afternoon, he arrived at his target's location. He had his men surround the area and prevent outsiders from approaching. After all, this place had already been bought by Zhou Yan, so it naturally belonged to Zhou Yan's mining area.
The people sent by Zhang Yang were not in a good position to get close to this place, so they left as soon as possible.
Zhang Yang also received the news immediately. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't care too much about it. After all, Zhou Yan had spent two billion Spirit Coins, so it shouldn't be a good mine since he had some gains.
Zhang Yang ordered his subordinates to ignore them as long as they didn't cause any trouble.
This was also what Zhou Yan hoped to see.
The three thousand miners were the top talents in Territory. Their digging speed was like a machine, even the equipment on their bodies. They were all mining equipment at the Gold and above. A few thousand of them were working together. Soon, a mine was dug out.
Zhou Yan waited here for a long time. After a few hours, they finally dug out the Spirit Stone, but it wasn't from the Nine Stars.
A Nine Stars Spirit Stone must be at the bottom of the mine. Zhou Yan asked his men to continue digging. Since they had already dug out the Spirit Stone, they just had to put it into the Territory.
Seeing that everything was fine, Zhou Yan felt relieved. However, he ordered his men to be careful of their safety. After all, they were in someone else's territory, so they shouldn't cause any trouble.
