First Year of the Great Xia, March 16th, around midnight
The mine on the south side of the valley.
Clang... Clang... Clang...
Forty to fifty people were scattered throughout the mine, wielding Chewing Teeth Chisels, the incessant sound of chisels striking Iron Ore creating a bustling scene.
Everyone was bare-chested, sweat dripping from their foreheads, sweat pouring down their upper bodies, their pants nearly soaked through.
"Lucky for us in the Great Xia now, no women have broken through to the Earth-digging Realm yet, if we had them mining with us men, that would be something!"
As soon as Tong Xinglong spoke, although everyone didn't stop their movements, they instinctively turned to look at each other, and upon doing so, they all started laughing uncontrollably.
"Hahaha, Old Tong, your pants are soaked too."
"Hahaha, after a day's work and you still have energy."
"We've been working since last night, whose pants aren't soaked through?"
