Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 357

Chen Ruobai and his team members began to get busy, first setting up the tent.This is not difficult. Not to mention that Morgan and Henderson have been soldiers. In fact, those who have been soldiers may not know everything, especially some outdoor things.

Chen Ruobai himself is better at setting up tents. No matter before or now, he often goes camping.Sometimes it’s natural to go straight to the camping site, which has a dedicated camping area and pretty good basic facilities.

In those places, you basically have an RV, but occasionally when you go to other places, you have to set up a tent.

For example, for a picnic or at the beach, you can occasionally set up a tent. This is also a way of life.

After getting these things done, Chen Ruobai felt a lot more relaxed.It must be a little easier to explore for mines now. Some things cannot be changed, so you can only think of ways to improve them.

This is not just Chen Ruobai's opinion, these are also the attitudes of Henderson and Morgan.Going directly into the water like before was really freezing, and it was really hard work.

After wading through the water to the collection point, Chen Ruobai said with a smile, "You don't need to think about the image of a tough guy at this time. If you can't stand it anymore, just go to the tent."

Henderson joked, "Robert, if you didn't bring up this topic, I could go to the tent without any psychological pressure. But now that you bring it up, it's a war. Even if I can't stand the cold, I I will also observe your performance, I will only go ashore a little later than you, I have to maintain my image."

Morgan followed suit, "Yeah, I can't be the first to go ashore, that would look too bad."

Conscience of heaven and earth, Chen Ruobai really is not advocating involution, nor is he putting pressure on everyone, he is just stating some facts.

However, the words of Morgan and Henderson did serve as a reminder to Chen Ruobai that he should not disembark too early, otherwise he would be a little too inferior.This is a matter of face and a man's self-esteem, and he cannot make himself look weak.

Sometimes this is the case, men's desire to win and lose will unfold in strange places, and some things that seem to be not worth mentioning at all will also make men start to compete, and that is something related to face.

A thumbs up is really not as good as the other party's sincere praise of "You are awesome"!
Although this is a strange competition, it is still competition after all, and we cannot lose face.

Even though Chen Ruobai thinks he is not a rough guy, he has always had a relatively normal aesthetic.A man needs to look like a man, which may have nothing to do with his figure or his appearance, but he should have a sense of responsibility and toughness. This is an inner temperament, not anything else.

At this time, you need to start working hard. Not to mention the sparks coming out of the shovel, you can't be idle anyway.

Morgan and Henderson didn't hesitate and started shoveling the river sand hard, paying attention to their competitors from time to time.

Isn't this an obvious truth? Everyone has now launched a fierce competition.It's obviously not enough to just do your job well. You also have to look at the efficiency of the other two competitors and see some of their performance.

It's natural to perform better. This is proof of your own strength.But if the performance is slightly worse, then you need to have some sense of urgency and catch up with the progress.

Not to be outdone, this is a bad thing. Let’s start rolling it up now.

Chen Ruobai is working hard to shovel the river sand, but he is not blindly pursuing speed and not quality. The main purpose is to expose the river bed, and the main purpose is to make the location of the 'mining hole' more clear at a glance.

Almost half an hour later, Chen Ruobai felt that his physical fitness had reached its limit.Probably my arm was sore from drilling and prospecting yesterday, which also led to my condition today not being the best, which was a bad loss.

In addition, the water temperature is relatively low now, which is naturally a double test for him. He suffered a big loss in this competition.

Henderson and Morgan glanced at Chen Ruobai intentionally or unintentionally. Everyone was gritting their teeth at this time.

Forget it, it's shameless. Such a tactic of killing one thousand enemies and damaging one's own eight hundred is really not advisable.

Chen Ruobai gave up and said directly, "I'm going ashore, I'm going to warm myself by the fire!"

Morgan immediately said happily and contemptuously, "I have long said that you are not suitable for this industry. You have never been a real man! Robert, you need to act like a man, as strong and brave as me!"

Henderson also joked with a smile, "Have you chosen to admit defeat now? Dude, you are too weak, I can hold on for at least an hour! COME ON!"

Looking at these two tough-talking guys, Chen Ruobai didn't know what to say. The main reason was that those two guys were too thick-skinned, and now they were just pretending to be fat. .

I don't care about them, and I'm not lying right now, but every one of them is freezing.

Facts have proved that Chen Ruobai still thinks highly of them, and each one of them talks nonsense. It seems that they are freezing to death in the river without even stepping ashore, and they don't seem to feel tired at all, working like a perpetual motion machine.

But Chen Ruobai had just landed on the shore, and Henderson and Morgan immediately walked towards the shore.Each one of them looked calm and calm, as if they were forced to go ashore rather than because they couldn't stand the water temperature.

This shameless look is indeed too abominable, and these two guys are really too shameless.

Although Chen Ruobai despised Morgan and Henderson, those two guys didn't care.In their view, they were the final big winners. Chen Ruobai, who was defeated first, was not worth mentioning at all. Losers had no right to express their opinions.

In the tent where he was, Chen Ruobai was covered with a blanket and drinking coffee, "We may have to change the location."

Henderson didn't understand very well, so he asked, "Change the location now? We have just entered working mode. I think it looks good here. The quality of the sand and gravel in the river is very good."

Chen Ruobai is not a builder, he does not provide building materials.If you really want to build a house, the quality of the river sand in the river is indeed very high.But the reality is that Chen Ruobai is a gold digger, and what he needs is mineral sand, which is completely different from river sand.

However, Chen Ruobai still explained, "You don't understand the technical aspects. I have carefully studied the river sand and river bed. For the time being, it doesn't seem to have much potential. We can't waste time here."

Since Chen Ruobai said so, Henderson had no objection. He felt that what Chen Ruobai said was reasonable.He had no idea about the quality of the river sand, and he didn't understand it at all. This was a fact.

Morgan also said at this time, "We still have [-] locations that need to be continuously explored? If we go at the current speed, we will need at least a week to complete these tasks."

Chen Ruobai laughed and said, "No one can guarantee that it may only take 10 minutes to reach a location, or it may not be obvious for a day or two. This is our job. There is no clear time, but what is certain is that we All nineteen detection points must be investigated."

After hearing this arrangement, everyone had no objections. Now we have just eliminated one detection point, so we can just keep working hard.The work has just begun. Although it is indeed tiring and hard, you still have to do your job well!

Everyone can only simply take a rest and start preparing for the next work, which is indeed not easy.

Considering that the distance is not too far, the tents and the like will not be moved immediately. At most, it is best to walk a few more steps.

There is nothing we can do about this. After all, no one knows what the situation at the second detection point will be like.It may only take 10 minutes or half an hour to explore. If you move the tent there immediately, it is not cost-effective.

These are the facts, whether you are willing to admit them or not.The work of Chen Ruobai and others is so mechanical, and it is also a repetitive job.

And there is no way to take advantage of these jobs. If you want to find gold, you need to work hard.

The truth is this: everyone knows what to do now and has mastered some work skills.Just keep removing the sand and gravel from the river bed to expose more of the river bed.

Although Morgan and Henderson still don't understand what such a job is, it is true that there is no prospecting skills and so on from these jobs.

Fortunately, they do know what they should do. It doesn't matter if they don't understand. They just need to do their job well.

Working with these two guys is actually relatively easy and worry-free.

There is no need to explain any technical matters, no need to think about their troubles and ask the truth, just what you say is what it is.It feels good. If you continue to maintain this work attitude, it will be better.

For a whole day, Chen Ruobai and the others checked four detection points.This kind of efficiency is actually not high, but such a speed is actually acceptable and completely understandable.

At this speed, maybe all detection tasks can be completed within a week.

Of course, this is the most ideal situation. After all, no one can guarantee what will happen next.

If there are some valuable discoveries, it is really possible to continuously dig deeper at a certain detection point, but it will not be measured in hours.So if four detection points were completed on the first day, that only excludes four detection points. If there is any reference value, it is very limited.

These are Chen Ruobai's attitudes and opinions. What other people think doesn't seem to have much to do with him.

Devi was a little gloating, "I'm very happy now. I just need to sit in the cockpit and just deal with the joystick in my hand. Your job is not easy. Think of multi-millionaires standing in the water digging for stones." , I will be happy.”

Such joking words naturally aroused everyone's laughter, and everyone could understand it.Seeing that Chen Ruobai is so 'unlucky', he really has some psychological balance, and I still find this kind of thing very interesting.

Montgomery also joked, "It does seem like that, the working environment they have now is terrible."

Chen Ruobai said viciously, "Guys, you have to remember that I will only work hard during a certain period of time. Then I can lie comfortably in the villa and play with the dog, drive a sports car to the beach, and go fishing on a yacht. But you still need to be here, continue to watch those ore toil!"

Montgomery immediately broke down the situation and said directly, "What I understand is not the case. In the past two gold mining seasons, you can only feel relaxed after the gold mining season is over. Now you, like us, can only be in Alaska." You just don’t have to drive an excavator and you don’t have much time for vacation.”

Having said that, it seems that this is indeed the case. Chen Ruobai's job was not easy during the gold rush season.

Of course, everyone knows this is a joke. No matter how busy Chen Ruobai is, he still has plenty of time.

What's more important is that he doesn't need to be in the mine all day long. He can indeed go for a drive and drink coffee in his free time.He is the boss, and there is still a certain difference between him and these members in the mine.

However, no one seems to particularly care about these things anymore. Seeing Chen Ruobai looking embarrassed at certain times, this is one of the things that everyone feels happy about.

Looking at Henderson, Chen Ruobai said angrily, "You are more embarrassed than me. I returned to the city after finishing my work, and you are still working here. We are a united front now, and you can't laugh at me with them!"

Henderson smiled heartlessly, "No! I have always been a miner and a gold digger, and I am the same as them!"

Morgan also said, "I understand it this way, this is our job. We can accept this, and I feel very happy when I see multi-millionaires who are more embarrassed than us."

Look, this is the darkness of human nature. Seeing some so-called successful people in a state of embarrassment can really satisfy some people's bad tastes, and it will make people feel very satisfied.

It doesn't matter if you are unlucky, seeing others are unlucky is a happy thing!
You can know the answer just by looking at Chen Ruobai. He is indeed a successful person, but now he is in a very embarrassed state.Everyone is watching his rapid fortune, and it seems that the gap between him and everyone is getting wider and wider.

And now seeing him 'beaten back to his original shape' is actually very interesting.

Seeing these gloating guys, Chen Ruobai was too lazy to say anything.

It's better to seize the time to find the gold mine now. Then he can be proud and relaxed!
