Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

”Well, that’s it.”

Yuchi wore a little fox mask, from which came a pleasantly strong laugh, ”Alright then, we will meet again by fate, take care of your health, don’t overwork, it’s damaging to your soul and life.”

So warm... The courtesan slowly stepped aside, then suddenly asked, ”Can I know your name?”

Still don’t know the name of the flower blooming? Yuchi thought for a moment, ”Call me Song Qingshan.”

”Song Qingshan...”

The courtesan nodded, ”I understand!”

Then, ”Master, you’re as vigorous as ever!”

Yuchi: ”...”

Oh crap, does the other party actually know? Better slip away...

Slipping away quietly, Yuchi breathed a sigh of relief. He really hadn’t thought about much, at most getting one over on his father-in-law, but it turned out the courtesan knew his father-in-law’s identity. Seems that upon arriving in Jiangzhou City, she’d already gathered a lot of information.

Live and learn.

And from the recent conversation, it’s clear she came to Jiangzhou City just to make money. Simply making money isn’t an issue, as long as Jiangzhou City doesn’t become chaotic. Moreover, the issue with Xiangxiang has been resolved, with his father-in-law’s name backing him, so it’s not a big deal.

...

Outside the Great Tang Prison, Yuchi had already sneaked over, swallowed an elixir, and now possessed the Golden Core Stage Second Layer’s cultivation. This little place was somewhere he could move freely, and coupled with the elixir for Stealth Form, the sense of security was overwhelming.

”Hello there.” Yuchi greeted the two guards at the gate in his mind.

Then he strolled inside like he was going home, first through a tight passage that barely fit a person, walking several dozen more steps before he encountered a guard and brushed past him. Suddenly the space opened up, and the inside of the Great Tang Prison was stuffy, the air didn’t circulate well, and it smelled terrible, like a rag soaked in spoiled milk and left for several days.

The smell was unpleasant, but those inside the Great Tang Prison seemed unaware, leisurely chatting, and you could hear the crackling sound of music playing.

”Can you speed up a bit? Our Great Tang Prison’s construction is about to surpass two years, by the end of next year, if we haven’t finished, when the higher-ups blame us, that’s not something you and I can bear.”

”And brother, we’re on such good terms, can you also say a few words to the people below, get them to move a bit faster with their work?”

”Once the Great Tang Prison is completed, we’ll definitely settle your accounts promptly.”

A burly man held a leisure book in one hand, irritably speaking to a foreman beside him.

”Master, it’s only April, there’s still eight months until the end of the year, giving us twenty months left, according to the construction schedule, we definitely won’t have a problem.”

”The key is our Great Tang Prison not only has to excavate a prison, if it were just that, there’d be no problem, the main issue is we need to gradually find the veins of this mountain range, locate the center of the ore vein, and also this needs to be done without attracting attention, so it’s even more complicated.”

”And of course there’s...”

The foreman mumbled on, but the burly man didn’t hear a word, waving his hand: ”Alright, alright, as long as you have no problems. Why tell me so much? Expect me to understand? I’m just from the Great Tang Prison, I enjoy exerting pressure on you guys.”

Such an incredibly honest appearance, the foreman left with a bitter expression, ”Alright, Master, don’t worry, we’ll definitely meet the requirements and finish everything within three years, no problem at all.”

Following the foreman, Yuchi could hear him quietly complaining, ”This damn Great Tang Prison only plays this game of pressure, if you have the guts to increase the pay, don’t say in three years, I’d even dig up my ancestors to help you, and get it all done in a year.”

”No pay raise, no rewards, so why risk life and limb? Three years means three years, can we break the initial agreement? A bunch of useless dogs, yapping here, so annoying.”

The foreman’s grumbling was quite genuine: ”In this world, who the hell is your brother? Try paying! Gold and silver are the real deal, love me then give me some money to spend, especially when you’re rushing me, so where’s the money? Did you burn it for your mother’s funeral?”

Such wholesale sarcasm... Yuchi followed him, listening calmly, and thought of an old joke: ”It’s still not enough money, if the money was enough, you could nail a rivet on one bank, a rivet on the other, and I’d weld a bridge across the river for you.”

”Hahaha.”

He followed the foreman as they strolled around, anyway all the mines had paths, twisting here and there, naturally also talking to workers about various issues, like showing Yuchi the way, each vein and thorough explanation.
