A Guide to Surviving the Mysterious Dungeon and the Twelve Talismans

"But this is a bizarre world, with too many strange props and special skills."

"The higher-ups specially purchased a batch of tools to assist in mining, improve physical fitness, and boost energy."

"Furthermore, they hired a group of Western succubi who could cast special auras."

"With all configurations, their mining speed can be increased tenfold again, and they can work non-stop without feeling sleepy."

Tang Ming stopped there.

Zhou An understood.

It can increase mining efficiency tenfold and can mine non-stop.

This is equivalent to even the most ordinary woman being able to dig out 20,000 jin in a day.

If she gets 20,000 jin, she can earn 10,000 yuan in wages. This wage comes from the Soul Iron Mine's public account and is not paid by the Soul Iron Mine's higher-ups.

However, the higher-ups at the Soul Iron Mine were able to secretly steal 20,000 jin (10,000 kg), and they were supplying it to external customers at a price of 80 yuan per jin.

Subtract the one million from the power pickaxe, and you'll still make six hundred thousand.

Note that this is only for one day. There are still nine days left. An ordinary player can earn five million four hundred thousand for the higher-ups of Soul Iron.

This is just a very ordinary level 0 player.

There are ten level 0 ordinary players, totaling 54 million.

There are probably about 50% more Tier 1 players, which is close to 8 million. There are a total of 20 Tier 1 players, which adds up to 160 million.

Tier 2 players are twice as many as regular players, reaching approximately 11 million. There are a total of 10 Tier 2 players, totaling 110 million.

There are approximately 16 million Tier 3 players, and there are seven Tier 3 players in total, which adds up to about 110 million.

The number of Tier 4 players is the highest, reaching 25 million. There are 3 Tier 4 players, totaling 75 million.

If we calculate based on the number of people, the top executives of Soul Iron could earn a total of over 500 million.

Note that this is net profit, after deducting the 500 million spent on purchasing Zhou An's power pickaxe.

This is not finished.

They would also buy Soul Iron Ore mined by players at low prices and then sell it at high prices.

Just as Tang Ming promised Zhou An to buy it at a price of fifty yuan per kilogram.

Although we don't know the exact price they'll sell it to, they'll at least make a profit.

Zhou An is not easily fooled, but what about the human players?

Putting everything else aside, if they offered ten yuan per kilogram, they would probably sell it all, and they could definitely make a fortune here.

"Alright, I'm going to mine now. Has the succubus arrived yet? Give me some buffs too, so I can mine more," Zhou An said.

"They're coming from the West, so they're a bit slow, but they should arrive in about half an hour."

"By the way, do you want some of those mining aids and energy-boosting items?" Tang Ming said.

Chapter 134 Players' Frenzied Mining

Zhou An shook his head: "No need, I have one. Just give me an aura buff."

He possesses both horse and dog charms, enabling him to maintain unlimited stamina and limit its consumption.

He didn't even want some of the junk props anymore; they were just taking up space.

“Alright, I’ll make arrangements for you as soon as the Western succubus arrives.” Tang Ming nodded slightly.

"Then I'll borrow this place for a while and get a massage," Zhou An said, taking out his black gold card from Rouhun Foot Bath.

"Hmm? You opened a black gold card at Rouhun Foot Bath?" Tang Ming's eyes lit up immediately.

"Ahem, once this matter is settled, I'm also planning to get a black card so I can call in-home services," Tang Ming said after a couple of coughs.

“Perfect, let’s go together then,” Zhou An said with a smile.

"Then I shall respectfully accept your offer." Tang Ming smiled.

This was also the first time Zhou An had used the Black Gold Card to exercise his privileges; he directly contacted the Black Gold Card with his consciousness.

Suddenly, a piece of information flashed into my mind.

【Dear Mr. Zhou An, Black Gold Card user, please select your service】

"Massage, top-of-the-line, eight technicians," Zhou An said.

Please select your technician.

Almost immediately, a light screen appeared on the black gold card.

On the screen, the top technicians from various stores appeared, all of whom were currently unavailable.

"Manager Tang, please select two technicians. It's my treat." Zhou An looked at Tang Ming.

"Choose...choose two people?" Tang Ming looked at Zhou An in shock.

When Tang Ming was born as a human, he also liked to wash his feet, and he continued this habit even after becoming a monster.

Whenever the mine is on holiday, he will definitely go out for a foot massage.

Although he is at the sixth level, he is reluctant to spend 2,000 yuan; the most he can afford is 1200 yuan.

The usual price is eight hundred.

As for Zhou An, he would hire him at the highest tier of 2000 yuan, and it would be for two people.

"Then I shall accept your offer." Tang Ming immediately selected two technicians who matched his aesthetic preferences.

Zhou An was not in a hurry to choose, but instead first separated his clones.

Zhou An then selected two beautiful technicians.

The malevolent entity chose two with the best figures, while the benevolent entity chose two who were the cutest and most innocent.

"You...you massage your two clones too?" Tang Ming looked at Zhou An with a face full of surprise.

Before Zhou An could even speak, the malevolent entity said viciously, "What? You can press it but we can't?"

“That’s right, that’s right.” The benevolent being nodded in agreement.

Tang Ming immediately gave a thumbs up.

Once the Black Gold Card was fully charged, a spatial fluctuation arose.

[The eight technicians have been teleported to the outside of the Soul Iron Mine. As the Soul Iron Mine belongs to a private entity, please go and greet them.]

"They've arrived, outside the Soul Iron Mine. Go and meet them," Zhou An said to Tang Ming.

"That's easy." Tang Ming simply had a thought, and then eight halos of light flashed up.

As the halo dissipated, eight strange technicians, each with their own unique skills, appeared in the office.

"Greetings, distinguished guests..."

Their voices are all unique and captivating.

"Then I'll go to the lounge first." Tang Ming called his two strange technicians directly into the adjacent lounge.

That was Tang Ming's private room for resting.

"This venue seems a bit lacking, it's directly on the ground?" the evil entity said.

“Sir, no need, we brought our own props.” A technician said, taking out a prop about the size of a palm.

She simply threw the prop on the ground.

Suddenly, a cloud of black mist rose up and covered that part of the area.

"This is a mobile massage room. You won't be spied on inside, and your voice won't get out or in."

The other two technicians also brought out portable massage rooms.

Zhou An and the other two immediately entered their respective massage rooms and began the services.

Half an hour later, the succubus clan from the West arrived.

Although Tang Ming was discussing projects, he had no choice but to reluctantly stop working in order to try and achieve financial freedom.

"Zhou An, the Western succubus clan has arrived," Tang Ming said as he entered the office.

At this moment, Zhou An's voice came out: "Go and make the arrangements, I'll talk to you after I finish the massage."

"By the way, I've booked those two technicians for you all day."

Upon hearing this, Tang Ming was immediately invigorated: "Alright, Brother Zhou, you go ahead with your work, I'll make the arrangements right away."

I booked the whole day's time, wow, today's going to be awesome.

Tang Ming immediately left the office.

First, they received ten succubi from the West.

These succubi are all stunningly beautiful with incredibly voluptuous figures; every move they make is captivating.

It also has a pair of bat-like wings on its back, and a black tail that extends from its tailbone.

Strangely, the end of its tail is shaped like a heart.

After settling the ten succubi, Tang Ming gathered all the human players downstairs in the dormitory building.

Even those mining players who rushed in during their off-hours to make the most of every second were called back.

A group of people whispered among themselves, wondering why they had been summoned.

Some people were even worried, fearing that Tang Ming might cause trouble.

Many strange creatures noticed this and came to watch.

Tang Ming took out a prop and immediately enveloped the surroundings.

Suddenly, all that was left for those eerie creatures looking in this direction was pitch black.

This action, however, startled all the players.

"Manager Tang, what are you trying to do?" Wang Han was the first to speak.

"There are tremendous benefits to seeking your help, benefits that can make you rich," Tang Ming said slowly.
