In the supervising area, there was a duty room.

The two overseers who had been knocked unconscious were most likely the people on duty here today.

Yun Yi quietly snuck into the duty room. After looking around, he found two records on a messy square table.

One notebook had the word ”attendance” written on it, while the other had the word ”labor list” written on it.

Yun Yi immediately picked up the record book for the examination and flipped through it. He saw the names written on each page clearly, there were a total of thirty-seven supervisors.

Among these thirty-seven people, there was a leader and two vice leaders.

The attendance list is to record the names of the people on duty each day and to make subsequent arrangements. There was only a list of names on it, it did not have any power to mark the names, so for the point about the strength of the members, Yun Yi had to take a step further!

Looking at the time record book, he then flipped to the labor list, and started to look through the names one by one. On the fourth page, he saw the names of himself and Yun Chao.

”There are a total of eighty-five workers here. In the first batch, forty-eight workers came, and twenty-six of them died from the collapse of the No. 2 Mine and other mines working day and night to carry on the journey, leaving twenty-two people behind. Adding the second batch of thirty-seven, there are still fifty-nine people left.”

Of these fifty-nine, twenty-two were the last. The last batch of labourers were said to be criminals imprisoned in the Moon Lodge. The reason they were arranged to work here was to give them a chance to commit a crime.

The conditions were the same as the second batch of labourers, digging up a thousand Jin of spirit stones.

Only the slight difference was that if the second batch of workers managed to dig up enough spirit stones to reach 1000 kg, they could go and stay at will. They would also have the chance to join the Moon Lodge.

As for the first batch of criminals, after they managed to dig up a thousand pounds of spirit stones, they only had one reward — they were given freedom!

”Although I don't know what crimes these criminals have committed, but with the amount of work here and the harsh conditions here, a thousand Jin of Spirit Stones isn't something that a single person can dig out.”

A thousand kilograms of Spirit Stones would probably need a thousand carts of Spirit Ore to refine. As for the laborers, fortunately, they had been busy the entire day. To be able to dig a carriage of Spirit Ore was already considered lucky enough. Even if he could dig one car every day, it would take him two to three years to dig up more than a thousand cars.

”I'm afraid the final result will be death!”

Closing the two records, Yun Yi left the duty room.

At this moment, a group of people were rushing over. At first glance, there were quite a few people.

Yun Yi immediately hid himself in the darkness.

When that group of people ran over, someone immediately saw his two comrades who were lying on the ground beside the horse carriage and exclaimed, ”Not good! Something has happened!”

At his shout, the entire team rushed to the scene and assumed a fighting stance.

”They just fainted and nothing bad happened to them!” Two unconscious people were examined and concluded.

From afar, Yun Yi hid in the darkness and stared at the group. There were a total of nine people, and the group leader, who always had a stern and aged face, was one of them.

”Wake them up!” The bearded man walked out of the crowd and spoke.

Someone brought a bucket of water and poured it on the unconscious duo. Slowly, the two of them began to feel it and slowly opened their eyes.

”What happened?” The bearded man stared at the two sternly and asked.
