Chapter 749: "Finding A Mine"

Chapter 749: “Finding A Mine”

The treasure was huge because it wasn’t really one item. What Blaze found was a whole mine of unique stones! 

Yes, it was a mine hidden deep inside the island, and Blaze accidentally found the entrance to the mine. 

So far, no one would have thought that the mine entrance was actually right under a huge grey dead tree. 

It took Ainsley and her people a few hours to create a sturdy and safe passage for people to go down to mine. 

When Ainsley found this mine, she almost cried out of excitement. 

Blaze! You’re really a lucky star, ah! 

Actually, Ainsley had been sceptical about the island. 

How could such an enormous island have no mines and other natural resources? There must be one, but the previous owner didn’t find them and could only use whatever they could find. 

The previous owner did say that the island was a treasure island, but only lucky people could find treasures. 

Plus, people wouldn’t be lucky all-day, and that means the previous owner couldn’t make use of the island to create a stable business. 

But Ainsley could. 

She would check the newcomers’ luck and chose those with the highest luck level to form a treasure hunter team when they were sent to the island for training. 

Even if Blaze wasn’t here anymore to help the members find treasures, the mine she found alone could already become a huge business for the Sloan Family. 

That’s why Ainsley even thought of leaving Zilla on the island. 

Such a precious business opportunity would attract troubles and many forces might try to attack the island to snatch it from her hands. 

Alas, even if the land deed was in her hands, if they were robbed over and over again, how could they do business and make a fortune from the island? 

Thus, Zilla was necessary to ward off any greedy forces who wanted to rob her treasures. Zilla was a behemoth born to be a war machine. 

Even when she was quite lazy in the afternoon, it didn’t mean she couldn’t protect the island from intruders. 

As for the one who would protect the main mansion once Zilla lived on the island…if Ainsley could lure out the remaining two sacred beasts, the main mansion would have enough guardians. 

Thinking like this, Ainsley immediately contacted the island’s base and asked them to send over mining tools and prepare people to mine stones. 

At the same time, she also thought of recruiting professional miners to do the mining instead of her mafia members. 

Her mafia members were her military troops. How could they become miners? Even building the base right now was an exception because they truly lacked workers. 

Ainsley texted Grandpa Yofan despite the bad signal and told him the full story before asking Grandpa Yofan to prepare for hiring miners and labourers to build more bases on the Island plus do the mining. 

As for the money needed to execute the plan? The Sloan Family didn’t lack money anymore. 

With their potion sales and other businesses they had boosted with the Sloan Family’s name, how could they still lack money? 

Even the occasional request from other big bosses asking Ainsley to assist them in contracting high-level monsters already gathered a large sum of money that one couldn’t imagine. 

The Sloan Family was wealthy enough to throw money like water now. 

Thus, Ainsley didn’t hesitate to ask Grandpa Yofan to recruit miners who could work for years on the island and labourers who could build some new bases until the island was fully developed. 

After Ainsley sent her order, Ainsley let the five buds explore the mine first while she waited at the surface. 

She did want to explore the mine herself, but Axelle and the others immediately stopped her. 

“There are many dangers inside the mine, boss. It’s not about the underground monsters, but more about the environment, ” one of the elites helped Axelle to coax Ainsley. 

The mine was naturally stuffy and suffocating even for the strong ability users. 

They still had to use proper tools to visit the mine and build things here and there to let the miners do their work comfortably. 

At the same time, they would need to bring some strong earth-based ability users to help the future miners clear the path, kill underground monsters and ensure the miners’ safety. 

Well, for now, the team which entered the miners only had fifteen members, but all of them were strong. 

Ainsley didn’t need to worry about their safety and waited patiently until they returned after exploring for an hour. 

When she saw Jevon and the others coming out of the ‘rabbit hole’, Ainsley immediately approached Jevon, who looked like the one holding the most information. 

“How is it? How’s the situation there? Can we develop this mine? What kind of precious stones or ores did you find?” 

Facing Ainsley’s bombardment, Jevon calmly took off his mining equipment and gave his full reports. 

“The mine is quite large, and we can build a path inside to make things easier for future miners. There are almost no dangers inside, either from the natural environment or the monsters.” 

Jevon paused before continuing. 

“There are only some troublesome low-level monsters, but earth-based ability users should be able to deal with the monsters easily.” 

Some monsters actually could be useful to collect the ores and dig further, only if they’re tamed. 

But Jevon believed that Ainsley could easily solve this problem, either by hiring monster tamers or doing things by herself. 

But Ainsley didn’t plan on recruiting more monster tamers. 

The ones she wanted to send to tame these useful monsters or tame other monsters on the surface were the future Irregular Tamers. 

The mine can become another training ground for future guild members!
