Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 390 Work is Work
There is no need to worry too much about the construction of the mine for the time being. Generally speaking, there is still time, and it can even be said to be relatively abundant.So don’t be in a hurry. You can do the preliminary investigation carefully and make the most appropriate plan.

Chen Ruobai is not in a hurry now. He even feels that he can wait a little longer and continue to investigate the situation of Facai Creek.You can't just start new construction when you make new discoveries. You can consider a general construction.

After all, it is indeed unreasonable to build a dam once a mine is discovered. Such behavior will also bring some burdens to everyone, some extra workload, and the possibility of receiving more fines.

Reflection, these are also Chen Ruobai’s experience summaries after reflection. This is also caused by a series of shortcomings in the previous work.

Now that we all know that there are still shortcomings in our work, we certainly can't pretend that nothing has happened.

Correcting your mistakes when you recognize them is probably one of Chen Ruobai's outstanding qualities.Knowing that I still have many shortcomings, I naturally have to find ways to improve myself and make up for some of my shortcomings.

He carefully inspected the mine and carefully studied some of the ore samples Morgan and the others had collected these days. These were also part of Chen Ruobai's work.

In fact, after Chen Ruobai delineated the mining area, people like Devi and Morgan could also do some things.

For example, in ore samples, they naturally cannot see the golden light, but if they wash carefully, they may also be able to see some gold. These naturally have some reference value and can allow them to make some judgments.

It's just that the efficiency is a little lower, and everyone obviously believes in Chen Ruobai's ability more.In the field of prospecting alone, in everyone's eyes, Chen Ruobai is the unquestionable authority, and his opinion is the most important.

Others can be moved aside a little, and some views are not even of reference value.

As far as the matter of prospecting is concerned, Chen Ruobai is basically a determined person in the team. This is not only because of his identity as the boss, but also because of his excellent past performance, which has made other members start to blindly worship him.

Studying the ore carefully, Chen Ruobai was in a good mood. The entire mining area was basically delineated, which naturally meant that the early construction was more targeted and there would be no omissions.

On the other hand, we can also start to consider more precise and detailed divisions and make targeted mining arrangements.

Morgan seemed to be in a good mood and said to Chen Ruobai, "Robert, my work will be valuable, right?"

Chen Ruobai gave a thumbs up, "Yes, I must recognize your work, they save me a lot of time."

Morgan was very happy with Chen Ruobai's affirmation.He also panned for gold in Alaska for several years, but it was only after he came to Chen Ruobai's team that he truly saw the charm of gold panning and the terrifying rate of return.

He also knows very well that his abilities are not very outstanding, and he also understands that his qualifications are not worth mentioning at all.Therefore, it is very important to get Chen Ruobai's affirmation. He needs more affirmation and recognition. He does not want to lose this job.

Morgan continued, "I basically sampled the mineral sand in every drilling hole, and each batch of samples was labeled in detail. And even if I use one drilling hole, I will classify the mineral sand at different depths, This will help you."

Chen Ruobai was not stingy with his affirmation, "To be honest, I didn't expect that your work could go as far as this. I originally thought that it would be enough to just take out the ore sand sample from the exploration hole, and just know whether there is gold in it. Very good. You are obviously more serious about your work and you have done things that I had not considered before.”

This is Chen Ruobai's innermost thoughts. He does not think that Morgan's work is redundant at all.

Some of this work seems time-consuming and laborious, and it may not necessarily bring about much change.

But I have to admit that this kind of work can save Chen Ruobai a lot of time and allow him to see the situation of ore more intuitively, which naturally means that Morgan's work is valuable, very valuable.

Everyone is working hard and giving full play to their subjective initiative. This is of course the best thing.

Chen Ruobai realized that he might have some shortcomings, and he was working hard to improve.

In fact, everyone else is similar, and everyone knows how much they weigh.Even if everyone thinks that their current job is good, it can be regarded as a certain guarantee. However, it is obvious that everyone is not complacent and is constantly summarizing the work.

This is naturally the best thing not to do. If everyone works so hard, the company will definitely develop better.If everyone has such a correct attitude, the subsequent gold mining work will definitely be smoother and more efficient.

These are what Chen Ruobai hopes to see. Morgan's performance can be said to have given Chen Ruobai a small surprise.

If you continue to maintain this kind of work attitude, there will definitely be more rewards in the future.If everyone continues to focus and work hard, we will definitely get more recognition and tangible benefits.

Chen Ruobai is not just studying the ore, he will also carefully take notes according to the situation of the ore and mark it on the map. He does not find it cumbersome or boring at all, nor does he think that his work is redundant. of.

After a day of prospecting work, Chen Ruobai returned to the camp and began to sort out the information.

After carefully comparing the map and recording these key information, some conditions of the new mine became clearer in Chen Ruobai's mind.

Therefore, no one’s work is redundant, and everyone’s work also reflects its value.

Devi looked at the map carefully and said, "As long as we don't consider flash floods, we have a wider working area, and we can better separate the work area and the living area."

Regarding the current mine, purely in terms of minerals, everyone is naturally very satisfied and cannot find anything to fault.It is highly productive and the terrain is not complicated. This kind of work can be said to be easy and efficient. Such a rich mine is definitely the dream of every gold prospector. It is easy to make money.

But when it comes to picking out some shortcomings, that is, even though the mining area is relatively flat, there is really no way to occupy some parts of the mining area, so the stockpiling area, waste area, and ore washing area are all separated. Yes, this is definitely inconvenient.

Moreover, because of concerns about flash floods and terrain, the camp area where we live is some distance from the mining area, making it inconvenient for everyone to commute to and from get off work.It would be the best thing if we could get a little closer.Not to mention other gold diggers, even Chen Ruobai and others who had mined some gold mines before could only walk a few steps to the mining area.It would also be much more convenient for daily rest or work. Unlike now, you have to drive, and you can't go back to the dormitory to lie down for a short break.

Chen Ruobai laughed and said, "This is a forest farm, and this is my territory. I think the forest above the mining area is quite good. We can cut down some trees and use it as our camp area. It can wash the ore.”

Devi immediately said, "I think so too. I have already had some understanding of the layout of the new mine."

Having said this, Devi continued, "As before, we will start mining from the area near the river first."

Chen Ruobai agreed without hesitation, "I think so too. According to my calculations, we will start mining the new mine next summer. By then we will have to consider factors such as flash floods, and mining near rivers will be more difficult." Safety."

It is safer and more secure to mine the area near the river first. This is also because the ore layer there is relatively shallow and a mine pit can be quickly sorted out.If something like a dam breaks really happens, it can be considered a buffer zone and a safe zone.

It seems that everyone has reached a consensus on this matter, and everyone also knows that it is more advantageous to mine areas near the river first.

Devi continued, "It does seem like a good option if we cut down some trees for living areas."

Looking at Devi, Chen Ruobai asked with a smile, "But?"

Devi immediately added, "However, it is too close to the woods. We have not been attacked by wild beasts for the time being, but you have known a lot since you found this place. There has always been a lack of traces of wild beasts in this area, so we need more Cut down some trees so you can be safe.”

Chen Ruobai thought about it carefully and said, "That's true. We did find a lot of traces of wild beasts in this area. I don't need to rely on the wood to make money. Cutting down more trees is not a difficult decision for me. "

Devi joked, "I think so too. As long as you dig out one more ounce of gold, you can get more than the value of those trees. You are not a real forest owner, and you don't need to rely on them to make money."

There is nothing wrong with what he said. Chen Ruobai is indeed not a forest owner, and he does not expect timber to create more wealth for him.

Therefore, even if he cuts down more trees, it is not a burden to him. He can make decisions without any psychological barriers.Everything needs to serve gold mining, this is his job.

The two people were also discussing some work matters in detail. As for the planning and construction of the new mine, even if it does not need to be implemented immediately, there is obviously no problem in starting a rough plan now.

Starting these plans now is also for better work in the future.Once deficiencies are discovered in the planning, they can be corrected in time to ensure that the subsequent series of work will not be affected.

There is no doubt that Chen Ruobai is very satisfied with his trip to Fortune Creek and has gained a lot.

Needless to say about the Ministry of Mining, although the inspection was a formality, it passed smoothly.For Chen Ruobai, what he is most worried about is the series of impacts brought by relevant departments.

If it's just a minor fine, in the worst case, you can deal with it by losing money and avoiding disaster.But if we really stop production for rectification, it will be a headache, and those things can be considered to have an unacceptable major impact.

It is also very important to maintain a good relationship with relevant departments. Why is Chen Ruobai's career a resource-based industry?Some departments and influences in various aspects still have a relatively large impact on him, and he cannot make completely independent decisions.

Fortunately, there is no trouble now, and Jones seems to be willing to show his kindness, which is best.

Not only was Chen Ruobai very willing to see such an overture, but Kessler and others were actually willing to accept the olive branch offered by the other party. Everyone knew that this would have some positive impact on the subsequent work, and maybe there would be Greater help.

There's no harm in maintaining relationships and forming some not-so-real friendships.

After settling the matter at Facai Creek, Chen Ruobai naturally didn't want to stay any longer.

Here it is true that his wealth can continue to increase, that he can make more money, and that his career can continue to develop smoothly and orderly.

But it’s really hard to like some of the environments here.Chen Ruobai is not an ascetic, nor does he want to make himself uncomfortable.So after the work was completed, of course I left immediately.

Fortunately, he is now considered to be successful in his career, and the team building is relatively mature and stable, which naturally means that many things do not require him to do it himself. It does not mean that the team cannot operate without him, which does not mean that the work will be greatly affected. Impact.

Chen Ruobai is now getting more and more knowledgeable about striking a balance between personal life and work.

After returning to Anchorage, Chen Ruobai immediately completed his work in the study room and updated the markings on the map as soon as possible.The prospecting situation continues, and more and more information is obtained. The labels, instructions, etc. naturally need to be updated in time. These are also things he should do.

After finishing all these things, Chen Ruobai began to rest, listen to music, check if there were any phone messages, and then planned to relax and enjoy a good life.

It seems that he is not as popular as he thought. Apart from some sales calls, no one else seems to come to him.

That's right, although landlines are always available, if there's really something important, then you can make a mobile phone call. The infrastructure over Facai Creek is pretty good, and you can always ensure smooth phone calls.

Since there is nothing really important, you can relax and entertain yourself without any distractions, and enjoy the wonderful life more meaningfully.Now that you have made some money, you must not wrong yourself.
