2374 Chapter 2374: Lighting a fire
The guard agreed and brought Yun Chujiu and the others to the canteen.
As this was a spirit stone mine, one could not use talismans or formation plates to blast the ore when mining. One could only rely on manpower to dig the ore. Therefore, there were many miners in this mine.
As there were many people, the canteen was not small.
The guard handed Yun Chujiu and the others over to the canteen manager. After briefly explaining the situation, he turned around and left.
The steward of the canteen sized up Yun Chujiu and the others. “What are your specialties? We don’t want useless people in the canteen.”
Yun chujiu raised her claws and said, “The three of us used to burn the fire. We know very well what kind of dishes and how to cook them.”
The steward of the canteen asked Yun chujiu a few questions about burning the fire, and Yun Chujiu answered them smoothly, the steward was very satisfied. “Not bad! Then the three of you will be responsible for the fire. The six stoves on the east side will be your responsibility. If anything goes wrong, Humph!”
“Don’t worry, we will do our duty. We will do our best to light the fire.”Yun Chujiu promised repeatedly. This guy said that it was true that many skills did not weigh on one’s body. He did not expect that the fire-burning skills would be useful at the critical moment.
The steward saw that Yun Chujiu was obedient and his expression softened. He looked at the two men and asked, “What do you know?”
The two of them looked at each other. They had never cooked before and knew nothing about the affairs of the canteen.
The steward curled his lips and said, “Since you don’t know anything, then do the physical work! See that pile of wood? Go chop it. I don’t keep idle people here.”
The garlic-nosed duo had obviously heard of the rules of the mine before. They did not dare to have any doubts and obediently agreed.
Immediately, the steward brought Yun Chujiu and the other two to the canteen and told the little steward who was in charge of the stove. Yun Chujiu and the other two started to light the fire.
Xue Wuji and Jin Zhi had never done such a rough job before. ! They did not know where to start.
Fortunately, Yun Chujiu had been a handyman for a period of time, so she was familiar with it. She helped to guide the miners, so she was able to muddle through it.
As the miners had exhausted a lot of their physical strength, the meals prepared in the canteen were all meat dishes, and the smell was very fragrant.
After the dishes were prepared, special people were sent to deliver and fetch the meals for the miners.
After lunch, the people in the canteen began to prepare dinner. They did not stop for even a second.
Yun Chujiu and the other two did not have the chance to talk to each other alone. They could only communicate with their eyes. Yun chujiu signaled Xue Wuji and Jin Zhi to calm down.
There were at least twenty guards guarding the door, and their spiritual power was not low. There were many guards patrolling the mine, so it was basically impossible to rush out.
Finally, they were done with dinner.
The steward looked at Yun Chujiu and the other two. “There are dormitories behind the canteen. There are six men in one room and four women in one room. You can stay in whichever room you see fit!”
Yun Chujiu gave the steward a look. “Steward, I have an important matter to ask you. Do you think you could talk in private?”
The steward immediately understood. He brought Yun Chujiu to a corner and asked arrogantly, “What do you want?”
“Steward, this is 10,000 high-grade spirit stones. Do you think you can let the three of us live together? The three of us are siblings. We can take care of each other if we stay together.”Yun chujiu pa.s.sed the 10,000 high-grade spirit stones to the steward, she pleaded.
“Forget it. You guys are quite pitiful. The room at the end is empty. The three of you can live there!”The steward curled his lips and said.
