Alaska Gold Rush

Chen Ruobai was quite happy, mainly because everything was developing in a good direction, and his requirements were actually not high, as long as he kept making steady progress, he never expected to reach the sky in one step.

How good it is to play steadily now, even if you can't become a giant all of a sudden, it doesn't matter. Constantly accumulating strength and making continuous progress is the best way in his opinion.Blind expansion, etc., may bring some risks.

Just like the upgrading of mechanical equipment now, Chen Ruobai never asked for a super large excavator all at once.Those giant excavators in the mine are useless to him, the so-called medium digging and large digging are enough.

It is very normal to eliminate an excavator now, and it is also the case for most of the projects. It is common for equipment such as excavators to be updated.At most, it seems that Chen Ruobai's small excavator hasn't been used long enough, that's all.

But there is no way, if you can't keep up with the demand for productivity, then naturally you need to consider eliminating it.

Looking at Dewei, Chen Ruobai joked with a smile, "You seem to know more and more about this industry."

Before Devi spoke, Dick complained, "He and Ryan are not in the mood to work here anymore. What they envy are brokers like Mr. Dawson. Maybe they can leave here and use the resources and contacts in their hands to A lot of money can be made.”

Devi immediately jumped up and said to Dick, "Real man! You have to understand that in this team, you can only be ranked first! And don't forget that I have no intention of leaving. I am younger and physically fit than you Well, I will not retire after you retire! No one can take my position, I will always be in charge!"

These innocuous jokes are normal, because it is too boring in the mining area, so they can only joke with each other.

Dick didn't think so. After thinking about it, he said, "I might be able to surpass Nathan. He is not as experienced as you and Ryan, and he is not as experienced as me in mechanical repair. If you and Ryan leave, I will be in charge."

Devi said unceremoniously, "I don't think so. You are not familiar with the specific work arrangements of mining. You just watch from the side and are with these machines. You don't know much about our work. So Nathan It’s still ahead of you, and don’t forget that you were introduced here by him!”

"I can arrange easy jobs for him, and this is my gratitude to him." Dick said with a smile, "I have always been grateful, and everyone knows that this is my character."

Devi immediately complained, "Robert, he is always bullying Lao Mo."

Chen Ruobai looked at Dewei and said speechlessly, "Do you really need to do this? Speaking of Mexicans in front of me, I doubt your position very much, and I suspect that you have racial problems."

Francisco, who was checking the washing machine, said loudly, "They all call me Lao Mo, I'm used to it. I can tell if it's a good-natured joke or racism, but I have to condemn real men. When I came to the mine He started slacking off after the game, and he always took my cigarettes as an excuse to introduce me to the team."

This is workplace bullying. I can't tell that Dick, who is usually stable, still has this bad habit.

Dick couldn't help complaining, "Take one cigarette from him, and you have to return him three or five. He is the meanest in the team."

Francisco smiled and didn't say much, he was indeed rather stingy.Even though he seems to be earning a decent amount now, he is under a lot of pressure. It is one thing to support a family, not to mention raising three children, and he wants to take over his parents as well.

It's not a bad habit to be petty, and it doesn't really affect the internal unity of the team.

Morgan also came over and asked directly, "We received a lot of equipment in the past two days. We are studying their instructions carefully. Some of them can be used by us, and some may take some time to control better."

Chen Ruobai couldn't help complaining, "Come on, those are not high-tech products, and it's not difficult to operate them. We can learn while experimenting. I don't think this is the reason for our reduced efficiency."

Hearing what Chen Ruobai said, everyone naturally had no opinion.Since the boss doesn't care about some losses that may be caused by unskilled operation, other people naturally don't have to worry too much.

When it is time to be careful and economical, you need to be more careful, but this is not a reason to be restrained.

What's more, the current Chen Ruobai can hardly be regarded as rich and powerful, so some not-so-expensive equipment can also be regarded as consumables.

These are all normal operating expenses, which are some of the costs required for mining, which is a completely acceptable level.

Morgan also stopped joking and became serious, "What is our next job?"

"The water level has started to drop, and we have to continue to check every possible gold location." Chen Ruobai also said directly, "This will be tedious work, and it may take a lot of time."

Naturally, everyone has no opinion. They can completely understand this kind of work, and there is nothing to complain about.Prospecting itself is a cumbersome and cumbersome task that requires ample time and effort.

It is true that Chen Ruobai is very powerful, and he seems to be prospecting to find the right one, but this definitely does not mean that there will be gold mines wherever he goes. He has also encountered some waterloos, and he has also had some confused moments.

Even though he has the 'Golden Eye', which can indeed improve the efficiency of prospecting, it does not mean that it will be easy.

The reason why the others had no opinion was simple, because Chen Ruobai was mainly responsible for the prospecting work, and the others also wanted to continue digging for gold.This will not affect efficiency too much, and will not reduce everyone's income, which is the most important thing.

What's more, everyone also understands that once a gold mine is found, one's heart will be at ease.Everyone has seen the charm of Facai Creek, and now everyone is still looking forward to finding new rich mines.

Patience, that is inevitable, as long as you can find gold, then everything is worth it.

Chen Ruobai didn't take any more rest, because he wasn't tired, so he naturally needed to get into work immediately.

He really didn't want to wait any longer, and there was actually some anxiety in his heart.Speaking of it, it has been almost a year. Since finding two gold mines in Fa Caixi, I have continued to try to find mines several times.

But after going round and round, it seems that we have returned to the starting point. So far, we have still not been able to make more discoveries, and indeed we have not been able to find more valuable clues. It would be a lie to say that we are not worried.

After all, I have invested a lot of energy and time here, and I have always been looking forward to new discoveries in my heart.

Everyone immediately got into work, and Chen Ruobai went straight to the dam upstream, and he also felt more and more that leaving Facai Creek must be the most stupid way.The main function of this embankment is naturally to prevent the skyrocketing water level, but there are also some unexpected surprises.Even now, he still does not have much mining value in his eyes. After all, it will take about a year for this embankment to be full. At this time, it is actually difficult to gather more gold.

But nature and crustal movement are not just based on a year, and a hundred years, a thousand years, or even ten thousand years are not worth mentioning.This is the accumulation of hundreds of thousands of years and millions of years before we can have some gold mines that people think are worth mining.

As long as there is a discovery, as long as it is proved that there is still gold in Facai Creek, this is obviously enough.

There is still potential here, and there must be some discoveries in the upstream, and more patience can be rewarded.

Chen Ruobai's thoughts are very simple, and now he has accumulated more confidence.Success is right in front of you, now you just need to work hard to find the path to success, how simple it is!

Morgan looked at Chen Ruobai and asked, "What should we do now?"

"Stay here and follow me with the drone." Chen Ruobai made an arrangement and said, "I'm going to circle some key areas now, remember to check my signal and mark them on the map."

Naturally, Morgan didn't think it was too difficult. Basically, he just used a drone to follow the shots, and marked it on the map after seeing the instructions.This is not difficult. After all, everyone has traveled this river and this area many times, and the map has been updated again and again. Several investigations have also made everyone understand it.

Chen Ruobai's idea is actually very simple. It is simply to mark down some places with gold that he may not have looked at before, and then try to dig them out.If it is dug out, it means that there is more gold below.

If nothing is found, just change another place and continue digging. Although the method is a bit stupid and simple, as long as it can achieve some results, there is really no need to ask too much for others.

From Chen Ruobai's point of view, some places that may have gold now are very likely to be like icebergs.

The part above the surface is just the tip of the iceberg, and the part underwater is the real monster.

The same may be true of the gold mines. The golden light he saw was relatively weak, and it might not be very eye-catching.But who knows if there is more gold underneath, these 'bare' gold is just the surface layer that has been washed out.

We really cannot rule out such a possibility, otherwise it would be difficult to explain where the gold downstream came from, and where the accumulated gold came from.Anyway, Chen Ruobai would not believe it if they appeared out of thin air.

There have been many investigations before, and all kinds of possibilities have been ruled out, and now some possibilities need to be ruled out again.

Or it can be said that some of these attempts are likely to be the real answer.

Morgan began to assemble the drone, and Henderson's task was to set off with Chen Ruobai.Chen Ruobai can do technical work like driving an assault boat, but he can't do it very well, so let professionals do it well.

Sitting on the Zodiac, Chen Ruobai joked, "Your family doesn't seem to like the way of life in Seattle."

"I think so too, maybe I might consider moving." Henderson also joked, "I need a difficult period of adaptation so that I can really settle down in Seattle."

This is talking nonsense with your eyes open, although what is missing in Seattle is perfect, and not everyone likes it there.But relatively speaking, the environment and urban infrastructure there are relatively strong.

As long as the economic pressure is not too great, living there must be much better than some places.

Looking up at the drone, Chen Ruobai pointed to the front, and the drone immediately moved forward at low altitude.

"I check the transmitted images every day, and we also clean up the surveillance at the monitoring point every day." Henderson said, controlling the rudder, "but we can't find any clues now, and we even doubt that our job is It wasn't a mistake."

Chen Ruobai half-truthfully said, "That's why you can only work for me now. If you find the trick, you can choose to leave and you can earn more money."

Henderson made sense after thinking about it, and he became psychologically balanced, "I think it's the same. If everyone learned it, then all the gold would have been mined long ago. This is the secret to your wealth. Perhaps only you can see it from us." Find the details in the pictures you don't understand, this is the reason for your success!"

There must be nothing wrong with saying that, because that is what it is in essence, and this is the truth.

But Henderson didn't bother to think too much. He didn't understand a lot of things, not just about gold mining, but also those who worked on the Internet. How could they make astonishing money one by one? !
If you really want to understand everything, it will only make you tired and out of breath, and you will not be able to learn at all.He just needs to know what he should do. Henderson is never willing to think too much about things that seem to have nothing to do with him.

If the idea is simpler, it may not be a bad thing, maybe it can be easier.

As for whether this will miss some opportunities, Henderson doesn't particularly care about those things.

After all, he knows that his abilities are limited, and he knows that he can't be the best at everything.Opportunities, those that can be grasped are called opportunities, and those that cannot be grasped are not opportunities, it will only make people more tired.

This is actually quite good now, the work looks relatively simple, and these things are all within the scope of my ability.And although the money he earned was not particularly large, it was much more than before, and his quality of life had improved a bit.

This is obviously enough, he is still a very contented person.

Chen Ruobai pointed to the left side, then grabbed the walkie-talkie, "Write down this area, be as precise as possible!"

Morgan's response also came from the intercom, "Understood, but you need to point more precisely, instead of pointing out the general location as if it seems random."

Well, a little more precision is fine! (end of this chapter)
