A few months ago.
There was a new piece of news from a mine at the border.
New yimo ore had been discovered in a corner of the mine occupied by the cool border. The number was uncertain, so professional personnel were needed to appraise and estimate it in order to decide whether to spend effort in mining it.
And that mine was the one that had been sneaked away by the zhongyun territory many years ago.
Since then, the mine had been under the control of the zhongyun territory.
Only a small corner of the mine was still under the control of Liang Jing.
For many years, the people of the cool territory had been brooding over this mine. As long as this mountain was not taken back, it would be a disgrace to the cool territory.
But now, the presence of the Yi mo ore had actually been detected in a corner of the abandoned mine, which was really exciting.
If they could pass through this area and excavate the yimo ore, they would be able to reduce some losses.
This area had always been under the control of the city protection Legion, so it was naturally their responsibility.
Therefore, the commander had spent a huge favor and a huge price two months ago to invite the Qi Alliance’s leader to go and investigate the area.
Not only was she a knowledgeable four-starred soul master, but she was also very good at identifying stones.
Even the king of spirit Masters in the Feng Wang Palace was not as good as Ouyang Yan in identifying stones.
It was no exaggeration to say that there was no better candidate than Ouyang Yan in the entire cool territory.
When Ouyang Yan learned that the ones who were supposed to escort them to a corner of the ore mountain were actually Xia qingchen and the cloudmist battle group, she spoke in anger, “If the escort team you sent is Xia qingchen, then you can find someone else!
She and the other high-level members of the weapon Alliance stood up.
The Commander-in-Chief was greatly surprised. He had arranged for the battle group of yunlan with good intentions. He had not expected things to turn out like this.
He glanced at Xia qingchen, then at Ouyang Yan.
Ouyang Yan was someone he had spent a huge price and a huge favor to invite over, so he could not lose her so easily.
Moreover, it was too late to change the person now. The middle cloud realm had somehow found out that there was a Yi mo ore in the corner of the mine, and they were ready to make a move.
They could start a war at any time and take the last corner.
Therefore, they had no time to wait.
“Xia Qianli, everything is fine now. You can withdraw for now.” The commander sighed.
He had wanted to use this mission as a reward for the military parade.
This was because not only did this mission reward 10000 merit points, but it was also a necessary process to promote Wan Xiaoqi.
Every thousand cricket Knight who was promoted to Wan Xiaoqi had to have actual combat experience.
The escort mission was the simplest and easiest way to lead an Army in actual combat.
If Xia qingchen wanted to be promoted to Wan Xiaoqi, this mission was the best.
Unfortunately, he and Ouyang Yan were not on good terms, so he was not suitable for this mission.
He had no choice but to hand this task over to the greedy wolves battle group, which had performed equally well during the military parade, and let Lin haonan take advantage of it.
“Commander-in-Chief, if the mine you mentioned is the yimo mine, perhaps I can share your worries,” Xia qingchen calmly spoke.
Oh?
The Commander-in-Chief was surprised. Yimo ore was different from other ores.
This ore was very unique. It had a total of 108 shapes and colors. When matched with different shapes and colors, it was easy to mix it with other ores.
Even a person who had been mining all year round could not be sure if they had found a yimo ore. They had to send the ore back to Liangzhou city and have a special appraisal team appraise it.
Ouyang Yan was the most important person in the appraisal team.
“You want to tell me that you can distinguish the Yi mo ore?” The Commander-in-Chief was exceptionally patient toward an outstanding junior like Xia qingchen.
If it was anyone else who said this, they would have treated it as a boast and thrown him out.
“Distinguish?” Xia qingchen touched his nose. yimo ores are so easy to identify. There shouldn’t be a need to specially identify them, right? ”
Any yimo ore in any form could be recognized at a glance, so why was there a need to distinguish them?
The commander couldn’t help but laugh. Look at his tone, even Ouyang Yan wouldn’t dare to be so arrogant, right?
Ouyang Yan had to appraise every piece of yimo ore for several days.
As expected, Ouyang Yan laughed awkwardly on the spot. “Brat, you don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth! I’m afraid you’ve never even seen a yimo mine!”
The yimo ore was almost a secret. Once it was discovered, it would be immediately escorted by the military Palace to the Liang Prince’s residence, and then appraised by a professional team hired by the Liang Prince’s residence.
As long as it was real, he would immediately put it into Prince Liang’s Treasury.
During this period, outsiders could not see it at all.
Until now, the name of the yimo mine was like thunder to the ears of all the people in the cool territory, but only a few had seen it.
Xia qingchen didn’t have any background, so how would he have the qualifications to see the true appearance of the yimo ore?
“It’s true that I haven’t seen a yimo ore in a long time, but I can probably recognize what it looks like.” Xia qingchen calmly spoke.
Ouyang Yan chuckled. sure. Let’s make a bet. How about it? ”
A light flashed in her eyes.
“Speak,” he said. Xia qingchen spoke.
I’ll give you 100 pictures, ” Ouyang Yan said. on them are pictures of the yimo ore and ordinary ores similar to yimo ore. If you can identify more than 50% of the yimo ore in half a day, you win.
“On the contrary, if it’s less than 50%, it’s my win.”
Xia qingchen nodded happily. sure. But what’s the bet? ”
“It’s a bet. If you lose, you’ll have to return everything in the treasure vault!” Ouyang Yan said. If you win, we’ll forget about this matter and forget about it. ”
The Commander-in-Chief looked on coldly from the side and simply waited for things to develop in silence.
He couldn’t understand where Xia qingchen had gotten the courage to gamble with Ouyang Yan.
Xia qingchen sneered. if I lose, I’ll compensate you with a treasure vault. But if you lose, you won’t suffer any losses at all. Alliance master Ouyang’s plan is a little too Grand, isn’t it? ”
Ouyang Yan forcefully suppressed her anger. Xia qingchen was well aware that the materials in the treasure vault had gone missing!
However, if he wanted to win back the items in the treasure vault, he would have to pay a price.
“Fine, if you win, I recommend you to become a member of the Liang Prince’s residence’s Yi mo ore appraisal team! How is it?” Ouyang Yan said.
As the chief leader of the appraisal team, her recommendation carried a lot of weight. Once it was recommended, it would definitely pass.
“That’s more like it.” Xia qingchen spoke.
He wasn’t interested in the appraisal team, but it wouldn’t be bad to win something back.
“Alright, then watch carefully!” Ouyang Yan activated her spatial Nirvana artifact and took out a hundred paintings from it, placing them neatly on the ground.
These 100 paintings were a collection of the real and fake yimo ores that she had encountered many years ago when she had appraised them.
He drew them one by one so that he could train new members to appraise the yimo ore.
According to her previous training experience, less than ten people who had come into contact with a hundred paintings for the first time could recognize thirty percent of the real yimo ore.
The best one was the spirit master King from the king conferring Palace, who was able to distinguish 40% with his rich experience.
Those who tried were the elites among spirit Masters.
Xia qingchen was a layman, and he was also so young and had little experience. How much could he tell?
As she placed them, Ouyang Yan said, “”Out of the hundred paintings, only ten of them are real Yi mo ores, while the other ninety are all fake ores that are extremely similar to Yi mo ores.”
“Next, let’s see how many true ores you can find.”
