Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 227 Unintentional Words
After two consecutive days of trekking, Chen Ruobai and Morgan are just trekking constantly.At this time, he was just on his way, because it seemed that there were no valuable discoveries at all.

Morgan didn't say anything along the way, he knew that he didn't have much experience or talent for prospecting.So as long as you do your hard work, you only need to do a good job in the implementation aspect at this time, and don't make any suggestions.

As for Chen Ruobai, he is naturally on his way, and now there is almost no golden light, which means he has not found it.

In fact, Chen Ruobai was also quite puzzled, the rivers of the streams were not all straight, they really meandered.

But there are many places that seem to have some potential, and there is almost no golden light.All this also made Chen Ruobai wonder, is it true that the golden light can only be seen when the rainstorm is coming?
Don't, if it is really such a model, then you will have no tears, and it will only greatly increase the difficulty of the work.It can even be said that there are some dangers, this is not what Chen Ruobai wants to see.

"Actually, I think there should be gold near here." Chen Ruobai sat down on a big rock and said to Morgan, "I have done investigations before, and according to my judgment and the speed of the water flow, there should be gold near here." Gold mine."

Morgan looked a little confused, and asked curiously, "Do you think there must be a gold mine near here, what is the basis for judging?"

"The basis, of course, is my investigation." Chen Ruobai said with certainty, "The water flow carried the gold downstream. This is the basis for my judgment. According to the flow rate and water speed, it can be determined whether there is gold upstream."

Morgan half-understood, and then asked, "The gold from the upstream was washed downstream due to the soaring river. Could it be that the gold just stayed on the surface, so it could be easily washed downstream?"

Chen Ruobai nodded, he thought so too, either the gold stayed on the surface.Either there is a huge gold mine, and some areas are not buried tightly, so when the flood rushes, the gold sand will be washed downstream.

Morgan still felt a little unclear, and many things seemed to be beyond his cognition.

This is not an exaggeration, these are the facts, because he really does not know how Chen Ruobai made these judgments.

Could it be that monitors are set up in the river, so the data can be collected when the gold is washed downstream?
If you really understand it this way, it seems to be understandable, and it seems that this is indeed a trick of Chen Ruobai.

In the Alaska Fish and Game Bureau, they often set up monitoring points in some rivers, and judge the overall number based on the density and quantity of some fish passing through the monitoring points.It doesn't have to be particularly accurate, but the approximate number can still make a judgment.

Thinking of this, Morgan couldn't help but look at Chen Ruobai more, the success of this young man is really not due to luck.

However, Morgan felt that these things seemed difficult for him to replicate, although Chen Ruobai seemed to have revealed the secret of success.But these things, it seems that others may not be so simple to do.

Chen Ruobai didn't seem to pay much attention to what Morgan was thinking at this time, he just wanted to do his own thing well.

He didn't seem to be planning to change his mind for the time being. He knew that there was a great possibility that there would be gold mines here, at least there would be some gold nests and the like.Then search carefully, maybe there will be some more valuable discoveries.

I have encountered a little difficulty for the time being, it seems that there is no valuable discovery, it doesn't matter, prospecting has never been a simple matter.Even if he has some trump cards and can find gold more efficiently, it doesn't mean that he can find gold easily every time. Chen Ruobai still has this awareness.

The two of them are almost in a state of spinning in circles now, Chen Ruobai is slightly better, looking for any clues carefully.Search carefully for some small bay areas, and dig carefully for a dry river.

What he did was still a little targeted, and the goal was relatively clear.And Morgan was a little confused at this time, looking like a headless chicken slamming around.

But he is not just wandering around, he is actually digging a hole hard, as long as Chen Ruobai points out the area, he will dig hard with his engineering shovel, it's just such a simple thing, these He is good at things.

It doesn't matter if you don't know the focus of your work. It is enough to know what you can do. This is not doing nothing or being lazy. Morgan still works very hard.

Sometimes it is a kind of happiness not to know something, and Morgan seems to be in such a state now.

He didn't know what his main task was, he just mechanically carried out Chen Ruobai's instructions.

It doesn't seem to be that important to him whether he finds it or not, because he doesn't know these things at all.Just continue to work hard to dig the river, so that Chen Ruobai can make some judgments.

But Morgan also thinks there are some weird things. Generally speaking, gold prospectors often dig up some soil in some areas, and then do some simple experiments on those gold-absorbing pots to see if there is gold in them.

But now, Chen Ruobai seems to be just digging the river bed, and there is no sign of an ore washing experiment.

These are naturally what Morgan is most puzzled about, but he didn't break the casserole and ask the bottom line, that's not his character.

Chen Ruobai really didn't need to wash the ore with a gold suction plate for experiments, his eyes were the ruler, and he could make a direct judgment.It would be superfluous for him to wash the ore with a gold suction plate, and it would just be a waste of time.

Don't do things that waste time and energy. Many things can be seen at a glance, and even the judgment is clearer.

Let Morgan dig another place again, mainly because he dug a large area, but he didn't find any golden light, so he continued digging in another place, maybe there will be another village where the willows are dark and the flowers are bright, this is also Chen Ruobai's expectation .

Digging the riverbed hard, hoping to find some valuable discoveries.It's just that after working hard for more than a day, Chen Ruobai still didn't find any valuable discoveries. It seems that these efforts are useless.

Morgan is still working hard, whether he has discovered or not, this is not to say that it is not important to him, but because Morgan does not know these things at all, and he does not understand some of the inside information at all.

It's just that Chen Ruobai was a little distressed, he stood on the river bed and looked around, with an undisguised confusion on his face.

Undoubtedly, Chen Ruobai believed in his own judgment, he didn't believe that his judgment would be wrong, he didn't think his speculation was unfounded, he believed that there must be more valuable gold mines nearby for mining.

And now the delay in finding the gold mine must be due to some other factors, not that there is no value in this vicinity.This is Chen Ruobai's cognition, and this is also the reason why he intends to stick to it here, and must find the gold mine.

It could be seen that Chen Ruobai was a little confused, so Morgan asked, "Have you still not found it? I think the ore here looks good. Maybe we can go to the river to wash the ore. We have dug a lot of ore."

Chen Ruobai was stunned for a moment, and then he understood, "Ore? This is not ore, it's just river sand. They have no value. We don't dig river sand and process it as building materials."

River sand is indeed of little value to Chen Ruobai, he has no doubts about this, what he wants to find is real ore sand.

Hearing what Chen Ruobai said, Morgan did not refute, but continued to ask, "If you believe that there is gold here, is it possible that they are in other places. I feel that although this is a river, it doesn't look like a new river. .But like you said, you like the paleoriver, and we may be in the wrong place."

Hearing what Morgan said, Chen Ruobai was suddenly startled. He felt that he might have entered into a misunderstanding of his thinking, and he might have made a wrong judgment based on experience.

The gold was indeed washed from the upstream to the downstream, and those gold sands were in the stream, Chen Ruobai was more convinced than others of this.He believed in his own eyes, and he knew that what he saw was the real truth.

Chen Ruobai is firm in his judgment, which is why he keeps digging holes around here.Whether in the river or on the riverbed, this is the key area for his excavation, because he has drawn a circle, and he knows that the gold should be around here.

But now Chen Ruobai felt that he might have made a mistake, and the ancient river channel really might exist.

The two gold mines discovered now are in the existing river course, which is no problem, but it does not mean that the upstream gold must be in the current river course.It is possible to change the direction of the river, etc. It is also possible that the ancient river channel is now submerged underground.

A heavy rain caused the flow of the stream to soar. The water may not have come from the upper reaches, but it may have rushed in from the valleys on both sides.Naturally, this means that the gold is likely to be on the mountain, washed into the river by the heavy rain.

Morgan's unintentional remarks also made Chen Ruobai think of these possibilities, which also meant that he could adjust his thinking.

There is really no need to die in the river, after all, there is really no valuable discovery now, and it is not a wise choice to go all the way to the dark.

Now I have changed my thinking and stopped digging in the river. Now I am going to find some mountainous areas. Maybe there will be even greater surprises and discoveries!
