Is there a normal person in this Victoria?

Are there humans?

Actually, these two people do have something in common. Sha Yun is surrounded by intellectually distorted Sand Scorpions, and Lan Ling has encountered too many idiots in her rock music career.

But none of this can stop Victoria from revealing a twisted temperament.

Zhou Li and Victor huddled together, tears welling up in their eyes as they looked at the huge sum of 500 gold in their hands.

The one with tears in his eyes was Zhou Li, and the one with tears streaming down his face was Victor who stood up after being kicked.

"I contributed too!"

Victor stood up and said righteously, "No matter what, I have done my best, with all my effort and strength."

"There are still seven that are lagging behind."

Zhou Li put on a fake smile and said gently, "Dear Principal, don't forget that you still have prison time to serve."

Sha Yun gently moved to Zhou Li's side, with only one sentence written on her charming face.

Listen to Zhou Li.

"These kids, the teacher is teasing you."

Victor laughed heartily, then said nonchalantly, "As your elder, how can I take your hard-earned reward? Zhou Li, don't think too badly of others. Let's go to the bank and deposit the money, so that no villains can covet your huge wealth."

Zhou Li nodded and agreed, "Teacher's idea is indeed a good one. Well, it's time to say goodbye. Although I miss you very much, we can't avoid the word separation after all."

Victor's smile faltered.

"Zhou Li... do you want to stay here?"

He asked tentatively, "Then the teacher will go back to school first. You know, as the principal, there are many things that need my attention. I have to hurry back to benefit the students."

Lifting Victor's collar, Zhou Li gritted his teeth and grinned, "Your early death will be our greatest blessing."

His sight fell on Sha Yun, who was standing aside without saying a word. Zhou Li narrowed his eyes, looked her over, and then said, "Sha Yun."

"Ah."

She responded to Zhou Li immediately.

"How's your Sand Scorpion ore business doing lately?"

Zhou Li asked.

"well enough."

Sha Yun thought for a moment and said, "I usually don't deal with the raw ore business."

"Ah."

Zhou Li nodded, then he looked at Lan Ling and asked, "Lan Ling, how are you feeling now?"

"Fortunately."

Feeling the spiritual power gradually recovering in her body, Lan Ling nodded and said, "It's just three fractures, two muscle tears, and blood stasis in the forearm. Oh, and an internal organ displacement. The rest is no big problem."

Big Problem = Death

Small problems = all problems except death

As expected of a rock musician.

"Then come back to Victoria with us and rest up."

Zhou Li said to Lan Ling, "It's best to treat this minor injury as soon as possible, otherwise it will affect your sleep."

"Fortunately."

Lan Ling said calmly, "If there's no internal bleeding, it won't affect your sleep much."

Are we living in the same dimension?

Sha Yun was completely bewildered. She couldn't understand why these two men downplayed the serious injuries, such as broken bones, blood clots, and dislocated internal organs. But she didn't ask. After all, she was now Zhou Li's prize, and speaking would only cause more trouble.

"Go back."

Zhou Li looked at Sha Yun and said something that she didn't expect.

"I?"

Sha Yun was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise: "Are you willing to let me go back?"

"hurry up."

Zhou Li waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "Five hundred gold coins are your compensation for my mental damages. Besides, I also picked up your door for you. Now we are even."

After a pause, Zhou Li looked at Sha Yun and asked strangely, "So, what are you going to sell in our school?"

At this moment, Victor, standing by, also realized what was happening. When he first started in prison, he'd heard Sha Yun wanted to sell some things in Victoria, and subconsciously assumed Sha Yun was going to get some ice there. But now, it seemed like Sha Yun wasn't very familiar with ice.

“Poor quality rough stone.”

Sighing, Sha Yun said somewhat helplessly, "These stones are less effective than ordinary stones, have less magic power, and are less stable. Although the price is one hundredth of normal stones, no one will buy these stones that are prone to explosion. Furthermore, low-quality stones cannot be destroyed privately and can only be sold to the academy to solve this problem. I asked the Sand Scorpion Clan's financial advisor, and he said that only Victoria would buy this kind of thing."

"why?"

Lan Ling asked subconsciously.

"..."

Sha Yun remained silent suspiciously.

"Of course it's because only a poor college like Victoria would risk being blown up to buy such a rubbish."

Zhou Li smiled through gritted teeth.

"This thing has very poor stability and can easily cause explosions due to magical turbulence. How could your teacher..."

Lan Ling was halfway through her speech when she suddenly paused.

Victor, who was standing by, finally came to his senses and said in shock, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Why didn't you tell me such a good thing earlier?!"

Sha Yun looked at Zhou Li, with only one sentence on her surprised face.

Is this person mentally retarded?

"Let's talk about this later."

Zhou Li elbowed Victor, then said to Sha Yun, "See you again if we're lucky."

"If you come to talk to me about cooperation next time, I will give you 100 gold."

Sha Yun said.

"We have a lot of connections."

Zhou Li said seriously, "I think we are destined to meet next Monday. What do you think?"

"Of course."

A bright smile suddenly appeared on Sha Yun's face, and the three words "plan passed" appeared in her eyes.

Soon, Zhou Li and the other two left the dark alley of Datong, while Sha Yun returned to her mansion alone.

After watching Sha Yun leave, Zhou Li and the other two hurriedly went into a secluded corner, squatted down together, and whispered to each other with serious expressions.

"Sha Yun didn't do it."

Zhou Li said confidently, "I understood the logic of that Innocence Door during my cordial exchange with it. Regardless, if Sha Yun were involved in drug trafficking, she would have been eaten the moment she summoned the Innocence Door, rather than being devoured later in the name of disrespect."

"Ah."

Nodding, Victor said solemnly, "She just mentioned the Sand Scorpion's financial advisor. It seems that Sand Scorpions with normal intelligence are not an exception."

"I also learned a lot from my family."

Lan Ling took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. She looked at the two of them and said in a deep voice:

"Based on what my family has said, and what the woman just said, I can conclude that the Sinai Desert's ore reserves are on the verge of depletion."

"what?"

Chapter 34 The Little Secret in the Infirmary

The mainstay industry in the Sinai Desert is raw minerals.

This is a truth that anyone who lives in the Sinai Desert knows. It can be said that the most important resource in the Sinai Desert is not water, but the seemingly inexhaustible mineral resources.

Now, Zhou Li and the other two suddenly discovered that the raw minerals in the Sinai Desert were about to run out. This was no less than Zhou Li raising a dog and suddenly the dog died one day.

It's that serious.

"Poor-quality raw ore can indeed be linked to the problem of raw ore depletion."

Victor stroked his chin, then pondered for a moment before saying, "The essence of raw ore is that geo-geological minerals are buried in locations where magical energy is concentrated. Over time, the veins are eroded by magical energy, becoming minerals that can hold and release magical energy. In fact, some people have previously questioned why the Sinai Desert, where magical energy isn't particularly strong, possesses such a large amount of raw ore."

“What happened next? Was the problem solved?”

Lan Ling asked.

“The people who raised the issue were dealt with.”

Rubbing his brow, Victor tutted and said, "Ore is the economic pillar of an entire political zone. This is no different from shitting on the head of the Sinai Political Bureau. He raised this issue in the newspaper, and the next day he was transferred to be a close observer of the magic explosion rune."

"In other words, the four major families are now collaborating with a portion of the Sand Scorpion Clan to sell drugs, with the goal of replacing mining with drug trafficking, correct?"

Zhou Li concluded.

"Ah."

Lan Ling nodded. "The Bai Lan family, the Vic family, the Toast family, and the Huang You family, these four families should have joined forces."

"What about the Politburo?"

Zhou Li asked.

The territorial divisions of the Kingdom of the Golden Age were simple: cities were considered "political zones," and the government of each political zone was the local political bureau. The Sinai Political Bureau was the government agency that oversaw all the cities in the Sinai Desert.

"That's even more of a disaster."

Victor waved his hand. "The Sinai Political Bureau underwent a personnel reshuffle over a decade ago. The process of the reshuffle can be ignored. As a result, 70% of the officials in the Sinai Political Bureau come from the four major families. Even if they are not from the four major families, they are funded by them."

"Oh."
