Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 399
Chen Ruobai may not be the best boss, but he is not a bad boss either. He thinks he is doing pretty well.

Whether it is the salary of employees, the working environment and intensity provided to them, or some benefits, etc., it is not bad.Even among groups such as gold diggers and money suckers, the conditions he gave were very good.

This naturally means that he has enough confidence to recruit new people. People go to higher places and water flows to lower places. This is human nature. Knowing that the conditions here are good, people will naturally yearn for it.

Who doesn’t want to have more money, less things to do, and be close to home? Even if it doesn’t meet all the requirements, it would be nice to have one more option.

In addition to some 'hardware conditions', Chen Ruobai thinks that he has done very well in terms of soft power.

Even though he has less and less time on the front line, he is now getting closer and closer to becoming a multi-millionaire.But even if they don't have particularly deep personal relationships with the employees under him, they still have some connections.

There is still due respect, and he has not forgotten about his "getting rich overnight" in the past two or three years.Even though sometimes he seems to have the temperament of a nouveau riche, he has always gotten along well with his former friends.

If these are taken into account, Chen Ruobai thinks that he has some personality charm and is somewhat attractive.

Enrollment expansion definitely needs to be put on the agenda, and discussing it with people like Freddy is actually a kind of notification.

Fortunately, everyone seems to be able to accept it. This is naturally the best thing for Chen Ruobai. At least he doesn't have to be distracted too much. At least he doesn't have to worry about affecting the team's tacit understanding and chemical reaction because of these things.

This is naturally a good thing, and this is what he wants to see.His team is united and has fighting spirit. This is a team that does not seem to have much experience, but has extremely excellent combat effectiveness. It is better than some so-called experienced teams.

After Freddy and others left, Chen Ruobai had a video chat with Eva. It seemed that his relationship would be stable for a while.

After getting up in the morning, looking at the continuous rain outside, Chen Ruobai couldn't help but get a headache. This situation was not good.

After making a simple breakfast, Chen Ruobai called Devi, "I can feel your pressure now. Our next test will definitely become bigger and bigger."

Devi shouted loudly, "The signal is not very good. I have sent people down the mountain. There are only three people in the mine now."

There seems to be a problem with this decision. According to common sense, everyone needs to be on guard at this time, so how can we let people go down the mountain.

But Chen Ruobai didn't object to Devi's approach. Being in a mine was boring, but it would be okay if he was working all the time.When we have free time, we have nothing to do. We can only play cards and chat in the dormitory, which is a bit boring.

So it's better to take a 'paid vacation', go to the town closest to the mine to have a rest, take a good bath in the hotel, go to the restaurant to eat something that you have been thinking about for a long time, or go to the bar for a drink, etc. There are still some recreational activities. .

As for the safety of the mine, there is actually no need to worry. Since Devi asked people to go down the mountain, it is naturally because he must know the flow problem of Facai Creek and the condition of the dam. It is definitely not an urgent moment yet.

Chen Ruobai joked, "I think it's pretty good, but you don't get overtime pay when you're on duty."

Devi cursed twice and then said, "I understand, as long as you don't deduct our salary."

No overtime pay is given because this is considered 'working time'.If the money is not deducted, it is because the weather does not allow it. This is a force majeure factor. Natural people have nothing to say. There is no need to save costs because of these things.

There are many ways to save costs, so naturally there is no need to search for these places.Chen Ruobai is still relatively generous when he should be generous, but he can also be stingy when he should be stingy.

After carefully talking to Devi about the mine, Chen Ruobai felt a lot more at ease. For a gold digger like him, what he was most worried about was such bad weather.

Even if the current weather is not the worst, it still makes people feel a little worried.He also knew very well that this was just the beginning. In the next period of time, if nothing unexpected happened, this situation would definitely occur from time to time.

There is no need to doubt it, this is just an appetizer, and there may be bigger surprises or surprises next.

As long as you get used to this, it's not worth making a fuss about. I have expected these situations and made some preparations.

After briefly communicating with De Wei about the work, Chen Ruobai took some time off.Being a rich man still has some benefits. He doesn't need to worry about some things at all. Many things can be arranged in advance.

Chen Ruobai has always been aware of some of his shortcomings and his lack of 'professional knowledge'. He has also been trying hard to improve some of his professional knowledge and learn more about common sense.

Especially regarding prospecting, he never thought of becoming a geologist, but he still had to learn a lot of knowledge.

He has never slacked off in this regard. After the gold mining season ends every year, he will make some arrangements and participate in some training.

It seems that there is not much work now, so naturally we can also carry out some targeted learning.The most indispensable thing in Alaska is a variety of professionals. Whether they are academics with very solid theoretical knowledge or experienced gold diggers, they can provide some necessary help.

Even though Chen Ruobai seems to be a very successful gold digger, he has always believed that among the three of us, there must be someone who can learn from me. He knows that he still has many shortcomings, and he can also learn from other gold diggers to make up for his shortcomings.

This time, several gold diggers were invited, and these were all Dawson's connections.Including Charles Young, who had some unpleasant experiences before, they all came here this time.

Looking at Chen Ruobai's residence, Charles Yang said with envy, "I have worked here for many years. I have always dreamed of having a villa of my own. I have been working very hard, but I still haven't been able to fulfill my dream."

Anderson Reed, who has a thick beard, echoed, "I also have such a dream. Before every gold mining season starts, I make a plan to buy a villa. But it only takes a short time. Just trying not to go bankrupt.”

"How is your situation?" Marcus Finley asked with concern, "I heard that the mine owners are not satisfied with your work?"

Reed couldn't help complaining and said, "I will never cooperate with the mine owner again! They are not willing to take risks, but they still want to get more benefits! His mine has no gold, but he is still urging We, it's like we don't have enough output because of our fault!" Chen Ruobai was smiling and listening. Although Reid was scolding him now, in the next season, he might go find some more Mine owners cooperate.Although there seems to be some pressure and some profits are distributed, the risks are also reduced a lot.

Finley's love of spending money to buy mining rights on government land is actually Chen Ruobai's previous work model.This way the risk is higher, but if you find the right place, you can earn more.

Everyone is in the same circle, and everyone has his or her own experiences.

The most important thing is that these people are either relatively successful, or have enough experience, and are considered to be the number one figures in the gold mining circle, and are not just newbies who no one cares about.

Chen Ruobai's ability to call these people over for a gathering naturally demonstrated some of his appeal.Even if it seems that it is impossible to start work due to weather conditions, the fact that these people can rush here shows that they still care about Chen Ruobai and value some of his abilities.

Communicating more with outstanding people may help you grow more and make progress in your career.

Chen Ruobai can be regarded as an outstanding person. Putting aside other aspects, he is now considered a leader in gold mining.

After greeting these guests to sit down, Chen Ruobai still looked like a master at this time.

Dawson couldn't stand it and joked, "Robert, I've rarely seen you so enthusiastic."

"As long as you come to my place less often, I might be more enthusiastic in the future." Chen Ruobai also joked, "But I still have to emphasize that this is just a house I rent."

Dawson revealed the truth and said, "But your rent here is more than fifty thousand dollars a year, which is a huge expense for anyone except you. Your annual rent is a nice BMW, Mercedes-Benz, this is so luxurious.”

Reed and others nodded. In their opinion, such consumption was a bit luxurious. Everyone came to Alaska to hunt for gold and usually lived in the mines. How could they spend tens of thousands of dollars extra every year.

And even if this is not Chen Ruobai's house, everyone is still very envious. They have all heard that Chen Ruobai has a villa in Seattle. The price of the house there is more expensive, but this young man has easily won it.

Dawson smiled. This old guy was very cunning. "When I came here a few days ago, he was very unwelcome because I proposed some cooperation ideas, but he didn't care about them at all. He thought they were from Money came out of his pocket.”

Chen Ruobai deliberately made a shitty expression, "Isn't it right? What benefits can I get from cooperation?"

These words were so proud and proud that they seemed to make people feel uncomfortable.

But for a young and successful person like Chen Ruobai, it doesn't seem so difficult to accept, and it seems to be normal.

What makes him perform very well at work? He has gained too much gold in the past few years, and that is the best evidence.What he said was quite convincing.

Outsiders may not fully understand the difficulty of Chen Ruobai's achievements, but this room is full of insiders with considerable experience. They naturally understand what Chen Ruobai's achievements mean, and they also know that those gains are almost impossible goals for them to achieve. .

But even if you are convinced, you can't completely follow Chen Ruobai's words at this time. You can still talk about cooperation and other things. What if there are some projects that are more in line with your own interests.

Charles Young said, "I have always believed that we need to unite and reduce vicious competition, so that we can achieve greater victory and make more money. Our common enemies are the Mining Bureau, the Taxation Bureau, and those damn foreign Destroyer!"

Chen Ruobai had a strange expression for a moment. As a vested interest, he could understand the thoughts of these gold diggers.

The threshold for this industry is high and the temptation is great. There are always some new people joining this industry every year.Even if most people will be eliminated soon, there may be a very few who succeed.

Moreover, too many new people joining this industry will also affect rents, etc., or some land grabs may occur.This is definitely not a good thing for current gold diggers, so it is normal for them to exclude newcomers.

Even Chen Ruobai, an old gold digger, actually doesn’t want to see more newcomers enter this industry.

Because he has a vested interest, he naturally wants to drive away some competitors. This is what is in his best interests.

"It has gotten much better in the past few years. The price of gold continues to be low, and there is less and less gold in Alaska." Finley said with emotion, "When I first entered this circle, I met many young people, but now they are all Some familiar faces, or some old people, there are fewer and fewer young people."

Dawson is also very vocal about this, "Robert is a young newcomer, a very rare successful young man!"

Hearing Dawson's words, others became even more envious, because some of them had more than ten years of experience, and most of them had been working in the gold mining industry for 30 to [-] years. However, compared with Chen Ruobai's achievements, their little The harvest is not worth mentioning.

Being completely crushed by a young man who is said to have no experience at all, and who can't even think of a comparison, this is indeed a blow to some relatively successful gold diggers.

I originally thought that even if I was not very successful, I could not be considered a failure.But now, by comparison, they know how bad their results are, and they seem to have seen what a truly successful gold digger can achieve.

Chen Ruobai is the ceiling for gold diggers.

And he is still very young, and he is still improving. It seems that he has not reached his limit at all, and there is still the possibility of further improvement.

It is already hard to compare with him. If we continue to improve, the gap will only get wider and wider. This young man is really going to create a myth for gold diggers!
