Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 122

Chen Ruobai, who was driving the vehicle, galloped all the way, and immediately acted when he arrived at the detection area. Prospecting was his job.Work can make money, that's the most important thing.But these are also hobbies, even if you are alone, you will not feel bored.

"I think it's a straight road all the way, which is not friendly to me." After carefully measuring the width, the ancient river channel is almost 13 meters wide, and Chen Ruobai calculated, "This is strange, why don't you turn around the corner?" Woolen cloth!"

A 13-meter river course is nothing, because the river bed is about 13 meters, but how much water flows in it is another matter.Sometimes a river is more than ten meters wide, and the water depth does not even reach the calf during the dry season.

Continuing to move forward, Chen Ruobai didn't delay anymore, he was looking for gold mines, not a geologist.

Chen Ruobai, who was searching forward, started to detect again. The depth of the riverbed is about five meters from the surface, which is not surprising.

However, there are also new discoveries, that is, the width of the river bed has increased, reaching about 17 meters.This can be regarded as a relatively valuable discovery. It seems that it is possible to find a wider river channel, so there are more possibilities.

Chen Ruobai, who continued to explore, felt that there was enough information about the performance of the riverbed, and the riverbed was stable at about 20 meters, which also made Chen Ruobai feel more confident and confident.

If this trend continues, Chen Ruobai will definitely discover something soon, he believes in his own judgment.

Full of confidence, Chen Ruobai continued to set off, and suddenly saw a particularly strange low-lying land in front of him.To put it simply, the area of ​​the depression is a bit large, and it is very likely that this is the former water pool.

"Finally let me find it!" Chen Ruobai couldn't help feeling complacent, the probability of gold in such an area is relatively high, "Come and try, maybe you can see the result after a few shovels."

Just when Chen Ruobai was full of confidence and began to prepare for action, he was suddenly attracted by some small stone pestles beside him.

There was a little bit of golden light flashing faintly, but this discovery did not make Chen Ruobai happy, but chilled his heart!
The ore pile, that is, the ore pile, that is to say, if there is no accident, it has been excavated here.It also means that it is almost impossible to find gold, and those gold diggers in the past will not leave too much gold for the latecomers!

There are so many deep mountains and old forests, and they are all so remote, but they still can't stop the determination of the gold diggers to make a fortune!
Such ups and downs made Chen Ruobai's little heart a little unbearable, and he still had a last bit of luck, hoping that those gold diggers in the past didn't find the real gold mine.

It's just that after Chen Ruobai drilled holes continuously to take samples, his mind was completely chilled, and the structure of the soil layer under the surface was completely messed up.This also means that this is backfill, and there is no valuable ore at all.

"That's not right!" Chen Ruobai suddenly felt something was wrong, "Supposedly there must have been no mining conditions here before, could it be illegal mining?"

Thinking of this answer, Chen Ruobai couldn't help it. The gold diggers 100 years ago were basically unlikely to mine gold here, and this is not a river, so it is more laborious to fetch water or mine.

And looking at the scale of the mining area and the way of mining, there are basically traces of large-scale mechanical mining.

These are actually relatively easy to judge, that is, through ore sand and mining areas, the most important thing is to find traces left by some large machinery.For example, the soil layer may have traces of excavator bucket teeth, indentations of large ore washing machines, and so on.

Chen Ruobai hurriedly got into the car and found the map. This place has not been marked for mining before, and this was not a mining area before.

Then there is only one truth, and it must be stolen.

"It seems that there are people like me. I started mining illegally last year, and then I made up the formalities." Chen Ruobai was speechless, and said dumbfoundingly, "Someone is better than me. They just finished digging without making up the formalities, which saves money. A lot of money!"

This kind of illegal mining can indeed save a lot of money, and there is no need to pay the Mining Bureau a share. Maybe they spend the money secretly, and even pay less tax.

This seems to be a good way, the return is relatively large, but it also has some risks.Naturally, it means that Chen Ruobai will not be tempted. Now he doesn't need to save such a part, his vision should be more long-term, and his career will definitely be better.

Chen Ruobai, who found signs of illegal mining, could only go back home temporarily. He thought he was about to find gold, but who knew it would be nothing but joy.But what can be done about this? Gold panning is like this, there will always be some surprises or surprises.

It is even more common to have a happy event in vain, not to mention such a small probability event as illegal mining.Even in some areas that seem to be more productive at times, and some places that may have gold, there may be nothing.

"The people who steal the harvest are not particular, and I wasted more than a day!" Chen Ruobai, who was driving back, still couldn't help complaining, "It would be great to make up the formalities, at least I don't have to go wrong!"

Naturally, this is just a complaint. Everyone has stolen it, so they will definitely not go through the formalities.

Seeing Chen Ruobai's uneasy expression, Drake naturally understood something.Emotions and anger are invisible, Chen Ruobai does not have such a city now, and there is no need to hide some things.

"Are you in trouble?" Drake asked with concern, "Do you need us to help?"

Chen Ruobai explained, "I originally found a gold mine, but the damn poachers dug them all up! Our money is gone, and those guys stole my money!"

Derek was stunned, and then filled with righteous indignation, "Stolen mining, are you sure it's fraudulent mining?"

"Of course it was illegally mined. I would never go to other people's mines to prospect for ore, nor would I look for gold in gold mines that have been mined before." Chen Ruobai immediately vowed, and said confidently, "There will be no gold there. With more gold, we'll earn very little!"

Drake felt that something was wrong. Last year, Chen Ruobai found gold mines in other people's mines.It is said that it is a water pool, and a lot of gold was found in the abandoned ore left by the former gold diggers, and they made a lot of money by changing hands.

But now he never mentions it, as if it never happened, which is really interesting.

Anyway, I don't care about the previous things, now Chen Ruobai has no plan to look for ore in other people's mines, the rate of return is too low, and it is not in his interest.

It is more interesting to find new mines, not to mention a higher rate of return, but also a sense of accomplishment.

Several people in Dewei also heard the news, and all of them shared the same hatred and cursed those pirates.Especially Dewei and Lesnar, these two guys were the ones who stole along with Chen Ruobai back then, and now they scold the most vigorously.

Their confidence may be the same as Chen Ruobai's, that is, they feel that they have completed the formalities later.Although it was true that it was stolen in the early stage, but after the procedures were filled up, it became justifiable, and it was not really stolen.

At least from their point of view, they also take it for granted that they have not broken the law and don't have to worry about being punished.

If you scold and scold, you naturally have to look forward, and you can only accept some things, and you can't stop because of such a trivial matter.

Dewei looked at Chen Ruobai and asked seriously, "Robert, what should we do next? We always thought that everyone followed the rules like us, but some people violated the rules. Your efforts for nearly a week have all been in vain, and we wasted precious time!"

It seems that this is really the case. If you really want to talk about it, such an accident really cost Chen Ruobai a lot of time.If it didn't happen like this, Chen Ruobai must have found a gold mine and could make a fortune.

And nearly a week was wasted like this, Chen Ruobai had no choice but to start again and look for new mines.

Chen Ruobai could only say helplessly, "Just treat it as if I didn't find the gold mine. I will continue to search along the ancient river. I believe my judgment is not wrong."

Lesnar also said at this time, "I think so too. We have rich mines here, and those illegal miners have also found gold mines. There is gold in this river, but many people can't find it! Continue to search along it, and it will definitely Discovered."

"Those pirates must not dare to make a high profile, they dare not work here all the time." Dick said hastily, "I don't believe they can find more gold, this is an ancient river that can make us rich!"

Searching for gold mines along ancient rivers is a consensus among everyone, because all team members know that searching for gold in rivers and ancient rivers is what Chen Ruobai is best at.What kind of river is this? It is clearly the road to wealth!

Although a little change made people feel depressed, but Chen Ruobai was also somewhat mentally prepared.Gold panning is like that, there is a lot of uncertainty, it could be because of the weather, or something could be unexpected.

Pirates, even if it is something outside of Chen Ruobai's control.

Now I can only ignore these things, just start again, Chen Ruobai believes that he can find a new gold mine.It's just that the stolen miners disrupted the plan, just adjust it again.

Chen Ruobai is not lacking in carefulness, and he is also full of confidence in his ability.It is impossible for pirate miners to find all the gold, but Chen Ruobai wants to wipe out the unexplored area of ​​this ancient river.

Why leave some for future generations, forget it, Chen Ruobai doesn't dig, others are still digging.It's important that he got his own pocket, Chen Ruobai didn't intend to be polite.

"Wash the ore!" After all the bad luck, Chen Ruobai found a way, "According to the normal plan, we should also wash the ore! Brothers, this time our goal is to exceed [-] ounces of gold, we can definitely do it!"

Hearing Chen Ruobai mentioned mining washing, everyone was excited. The previous haze was swept away, and mining washing was even more exciting!
